One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha

Inside the desolate Rabbit Bowl Quarry

When Luffy makes the outrageous statement that he wants to take over the prison, the Gifter "Babanuki," who is temporarily acting as the prison warden, is furious.

He raised the huge elephant head on his chest, his eyes filled with a provoked rage.

"You reckless pirate! How dare you trespass into the territory of the Beasts Pirates!"

Babanu base roared from the high platform and immediately issued the order to suppress the rebellion.

"All troops, attack! Take down these arrogant bastards!"

"Prepare to use the plague bombs and let them taste a fate worse than death!"

With a command, hundreds of fully armed guards and various types of Gifters surged forward like a tide.

The snipers on the tower also set up their rifles, their dark muzzles aimed at the Straw Hat crew below.

However, the Straw Hat crew, whose members' strength had already reached the level of an Emperor's crew, were now facing a formidable opponent.

This cannot be called a battle at all; it was a one-sided, ruthless clearing.

Zoro did not draw all his swords.

He gripped the sheathed Wado Ichimonji in one hand, his eyes as cold as knives.

Faced with enemies surging in from all directions, he casually waved his hand.

The overwhelming sword pressure transformed into a visible blue gale, sweeping out like an invisible giant blade.

The snipers who were hiding on the tower, ready to fire their shots, didn't even have time to scream before their internal organs churned from the pressure of the sword, and they all fell from the sky, dozens of meters high.

Sanji lit the cigarette in his mouth, and his figure transformed into a black lightning bolt in the air.

He flashed continuously in mid-air, his legs leaving scorching afterimages.

With a series of teeth-grinding cracking sounds, the beastly bodies that the mutated gifted beings were so proud of were kicked to pieces by him, and they flew backward with screams, crashing into large areas of rocks.

Seeing her companions displaying their incredible power, Nami, holding her exquisite Clima-Tact, stepped forward.

As soon as she had a thought, the weather above the quarry changed drastically.

The once clear sky instantly darkened, and thick clouds gathered.

On the left is Zeus, who has transformed into a raging black cloud and flashes of lightning.

On the right is "Foto," which radiates a blinding white light, like a blazing sun.

Two powerful lightning monsters swiftly converged in mid-air, and terrifying lightning elements were frantically compressed within the clouds.

"Double Thunderclap!"

As Nami swung her wand downwards, a terrifying bolt of lightning, like divine punishment, crashed down.

Intertwined golden and purple lightning instantly engulfed the entire square.

Hundreds of fully armed guards were mercilessly bombarded by this overwhelming force.

Before they could even scream, they were instantly blasted into charred remains, emitting black smoke, and collapsed to the ground in convulsions.

In less than three minutes, the once densely packed fighting force on the square was completely cleared out.

Babanuki, standing on the platform, was terrified upon seeing this and broke out in a cold sweat.

He knew he had kicked a hornet's nest, so he hurriedly took a deep breath, raised his elephant trunk high, and attempted a final, desperate struggle.

He gathered all his strength and unleashed his strongest move: "Elephant's Breath!"

A burst of scorching fire, accompanied by a destructive gale, hurtled towards Luffy below like a cannonball.

Luffy's eyes sharpened, but he stood still, not moving an inch.

Armament Haki instantly enveloped his right fist, giving it a deep metallic sheen.

Facing the massive barrage of fire, Luffy unleashed a powerful punch from a distance.

"boom!"

The terrifying force of the punch was like a tangible hammer blow, instantly obliterating the oncoming flames.

That overwhelming force pierced through the air and slammed into Babanuki without reservation.

With a piercing scream, Babanuki and his elephant were blasted into the ruins of the high wall, vomiting blood and losing consciousness on the spot.

After clearing out the guards from the perimeter, Luffy and his crew trudged through the wreckage and scorched earth, heading straight for the deepest part of the prison.

In the sturdiest cell in the quarry, they saw another supernova imprisoned there—"Eeustass Kidd".

At this moment, Kidd was covered in blood-soaked bandages, with heavy sea stone handcuffs on his wrists, and looked emaciated.

Even as a prisoner, his red hair remained flamboyant, and his eyes revealed an indomitable wildness.

Seeing Luffy and his crew strolling over as if taking a leisurely walk, Kid, with an arrogant expression, spat out a mouthful of blood with a cold smile:

"Straw Hat Boy? Hmph, don't think I'll be grateful just because you broke in."

"I don't need your pity. I'll find my own way out!"

Luffy completely ignored Kid's stubbornness and provocation.

He strode to the steel cage, amidst the bewildered gazes of Kidd and the surrounding prisoners.

Luffy stretched out his hands and grabbed the thick sea stone handcuffs binding Kid's wrists.

"Snap!"

A crisp cracking sound echoed in the dimly lit cell.

Those seemingly indestructible seastone handcuffs were crushed into pieces by Luffy's bare hands, just like fragile cookies, and fell into the dirt as he squeezed them.

Kidd, now free, stood frozen in place.

He subconsciously rubbed his wrist, which was marked with red welts, and glanced down at the remnants of the sea stone on the ground, his eyes filled with undisguised horror and shock.

As a former Supernova who was once on par with Luffy, he knew all too well how hard Seastone was.

That substance is said to be so difficult for even sword masters to cut.

He clearly sensed that the Straw Hat Boy's effortless yet oppressive aura had reached a level he could never attain.

The gap between the two had long since become an insurmountable chasm without them even realizing it.

Meanwhile, following the faint scent in the air, Zoro walked to a secluded corner deep within the quarry.

He cleaved open the thick, sealed door of the secret room with a single stroke.

The heavy iron gate collapsed with a loud crash.

Zoro rescued Kawamatsu, one of the Nine Red Scabbards, who had been imprisoned for thirteen years and survived by eating only one poisonous fish each day.

Kawamatsu, now out of the light of day, held his sword, his eyes glistening with tears of vengeance.

Seeing Luffy display such overwhelming power.

The old man, "Uncle Leopard," who had been suffering greatly in prison, was emaciated, and had lost all hope, suddenly felt his dried-up blood start to boil again.

He stopped hiding, stepped forward, and stood on the highest stone platform in the quarry.

He revealed his true identity to everyone as "Hyogoro," the former head of the Wano Country yakuza.

Hyogoro shouted loudly, his aged voice carrying a resounding authority and passion.

He told all the samurai and prisoners who were driven to despair by torture that the hope of the Kozuki clan had not been extinguished.

Allies from the outside world have arrived, and the dawn of overthrowing Kaido and Orochi is just around the corner.

At the joint call of Hyogoro and Kawamatsu, anger and hope were rekindled in the eyes of tens of thousands of enslaved prisoners in the quarry.

They raised their stones, pickaxes, and broken chains high, unleashing a roar that shook the heavens and the earth.

.........

The Flower Capital remains as prosperous as ever.

Victor was sitting alone in a secluded and quiet teahouse.

He took off his straw hat and placed it on the wooden table, holding a steaming cup of fragrant tea in his hand. He savored the coarse tea unique to Wano Country, looking relaxed and content.

The street outside the teahouse had been quietly cleared out at some point.

Countless grim-faced gang members blocked off all the surrounding alleyways.

In the somber atmosphere, Denjiro entered the teahouse alone.

Facing this renowned pirate who was famous throughout the world, Denjiro put aside his usual arrogance and unruliness, and showed the utmost respect.

He strode to the table where Viktor was and bowed deeply:

"Lord Crimson Lotus, I am Kyoshiro, the yakuza boss of this Flower Capital."

"Having heard that you and the Straw Hat Pirates intend to attack Kaido, I have been entrusted by Princess Hiyori to represent the Kozuki clan and earnestly request an alliance with you."

"If you are willing to accept, all the underground forces and samurai in the Flower Capital will be at your command..."

Viktor did not respond immediately to Kyoshiro's obsequious attitude.

He quietly picked up the exquisite teacup and gently blew away the floating tea leaves on the surface.

Viktor slowly sipped his tea, savored it for a moment, and then placed the teacup steadily on the wooden table.

He slowly raised his head, his gaze piercing through the rising aroma of tea, landing on Kyoshiro's face, which wore a fawning smile.

A playful smile curled at the corner of Viktor's lips:

"Pretending to be Orochi's lackey, secretly enduring humiliation to protect the princess of the Kozuki clan..."

"You've had a really tough time these past twenty years."

Viktor paused, looking at the other's shoulders stiffen for a moment, and slowly uttered the long-forgotten real name:

"Right, Denjiro of the Nine Red Scabbards."

Upon hearing this, Kyoshiro, who had been bowing and maintaining a humble posture, suddenly opened his eyes.

His right hand, which had been hanging naturally, suddenly gripped the hilt of the knife at his waist in shock.

How did this man know?!
