Starting as a working person from Naruto

Chapter 470 Ace and Yamato

The country of peace.

Hundreds of meteors fell from the sky.

The entire Wano Country witnessed this stunning and magnificent scene. Many people stopped to admire the beautiful view, but Fire Fist Ace, Yamato, and the others suddenly became solemn!

"What is that?"

Yamato stared intently at the shooting star in the sky.

Because in her Observation Haki perception, those were not dazzling meteors at all, but monsters exuding eerie auras!

"The Konoha Pirates..."

Fire Fist Ace had seen the newspaper. He slowly raised his head to look at the sky, and his face turned grim because he saw a golden ark slowly descending!

The people of Konoha...

They've actually arrived in Wano Country!

"We might have to retreat now..."

Fire Fist Ace immediately considered retreating. His gaze was fixed on Yamato beside him, and he said in a deep voice, "The people of Konoha are all dangerous. It's best not to clash with them. The two of us alone are no match for them..."

"What if they want to seize Wano Country?"

Yamato turned to look at Ace, her eyes gradually hardening: "If they are enemies of Wano Country, then to protect its people, I too shall die to defend this country, just as Lord Oden did!"

"..."

Fire Fist Ace looked at the stubborn Yamato, a helpless smile flashing across his face, just like when he saw his impulsive younger brother in the past.

but…

Ace couldn't change the other person...

Whether as a friend or as a helper, Ace couldn't abandon Yamato and the others. He could only shake his head and transform into a ball of flame once more, rushing towards the Flower Capital.

In the flower city.

As Orochi and his men stared in astonishment at the meteor, they were surrounded by a group of white monsters with black wings.

"Who the hell are you guys?!"

Kurozumi Orochi hastily retreated behind his subordinates, raised his hand in alarm, pointed at the group of monsters, and shouted, "Are these reinforcements sent by those traitors?"

"Hehehehe..."

The group of white Zetsu exchanged knowing glances.

next moment!

The group of White Zetsu suddenly charged forward with their swords, instantly cutting Orochi's Oniwabanshu to pieces, with blood and severed limbs covering the street!

Startled, Orochi hastily activated his Devil Fruit form. His short, chubby, and comical body instantly swelled up, and a giant snake with eight heads emerged from his body, ferociously trying to resist the White Zetsu army's siege!

It is the Zoan type, Snake-Snake Fruit, Mythical Zoan type, Yamata no Orochi form!

The eight heads of the black charcoal serpent were rather crude. At the same time, all eight heads lunged at a white zeolite that was blocking its path, trying to break through!

"Immortal Technique: Bright God Gate!"

Torii gates descended from the sky!

With a soft shout from Hashirama Senju, torii gates descended from the sky, instantly pinning the massive Yamata no Orochi to the ground!

Madara Uchiha suddenly landed on the ground, stepped on a snake's head, glanced coldly at the Yamata no Orochi, and snorted disdainfully.

"How ugly..."

In Madara Uchiha's eyes, Orochi was too ugly in both appearance and strength, and he couldn't muster any interest in him at all!

"..."

The black charcoal snake trembled with fear.

The short, stout shogun of Wano Country felt his heart clench with fear the moment he saw Madara Uchiha, for he had already seen Madara's portrait before!

Orochi had no intention of resisting this powerful man who had defeated Kaido; in fact, he knelt down very quickly!

This…

This is the person who defeated Kaido!

How could we allow him to harbor any intention of rebellion!

"Uchiha...Uchiha..."

A tense voice came from the black serpent's head, loudly ordering its subordinates to cease resistance: "Everyone, stop! No resistance!"

"..."

The group of people were no match for the White Jue Army to begin with, and immediately obeyed their superior's orders to kneel down, secretly sizing up the powerful enemies who had descended from the sky.

"Uchiha... Lord Madara..."

Orochi cautiously looked at Madara Uchiha, and stammered, "I wonder if there's anything I can do to help with Konoha's visit to Wano Country?"

"Of course there are..."

Orochimaru descended from the sky, slowly landing beside Kurozumi Orochi. A sinister smile appeared on his face, yet his tone was unusually gentle: "Lord Kurozumi Orochi, the reason we're here is for you..."

"what?"

The black charcoal serpent looked up in surprise.

next moment!

Orochimaru suddenly raised his hand!

In the terrified eyes of Orochi, he saw countless ferocious, tiny white snakes suddenly emerge from Orochimaru's sleeve. These white snakes instantly surrounded Orochi's body and devoured the Wano Country shogun completely!

"!!!"

Everyone was taken aback by Orochimaru's methods.

"Hmph, how simple and crude..."

Accompanied by Madara Uchiha's contemptuous laughter, figures descended from the Golden Ark, curiously surveying the beautiful Flower Capital.

"How capable are you...?"

Tobirama Senju was very interested in the Devil Fruit abilities Orochimaru had obtained.

"It seems quite interesting..."

Orochimaru raised his eyebrows, and huge, illusory snake heads emerged from behind him, a group of snake heads looking menacingly in all directions.

The color of the giant snake heads changed rapidly, and their heads turned completely white, with sharp thorns even growing on them!

"It needs to be developed thoroughly over a period of time..."

Orochimaru glanced at his other heads and grinned, "At least they match my Eight-Headed Serpent Technique perfectly..."

"That gate-sealing technique..."

Tobirama Senju shook his head, his gaze drifting into the distance. He placed his hand on the ground and murmured, "There are quite a few interesting people on this island..."

Before the words were finished…

A group of figures came rushing in!

The leaders were none other than Fire Fist Ace and Yamato.

Fire Fist Ace's mood turned completely heavy when he saw the Konoha Pirates, especially since there were quite a few powerful individuals among them!

such as…

The general Aokiji who once captured him in Alabasta!

Fire Fist Ace felt uneasy. If the Konoha Pirates clashed with them, it seemed he had absolutely no chance of winning against Yamato…

and…

The people of the Flower Capital all knelt on the ground.

Their intended enemy, Orochi, has vanished without a trace, and it seems the Flower Capital has already been captured by the Konoha Pirates…

"I am Kozuki Oden, the Shogun of Wano Country!"

Yamato, suppressing his fear as he looked at the group of powerful figures, asked in a deep voice, "May I ask what brings you all here?"

"..."

The members of the Konoha Pirates all had strange expressions on their faces.

Everyone here looked at Black Zetsu and White Zetsu, the intelligence agents of the Konoha Pirates, their eyes filled with doubt.

"etc…"

White Zetsu Awei also looked somewhat surprised and questioned, "According to the intelligence we received, aren't you Kaido's daughter?"

"There's something wrong with her mind..."

Black Zetsu's cold voice interrupted Awei's words, explaining, "She always thinks she's Kozuki Oden! Don't pay any attention to her. This woman is a Zoan-type Inu Inu Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Great Mouth God Mode. Just kidnap her!"

"Hehehehe..."

Black Zetsu's gaze fell on the Kozuki clan and the others, and he suddenly laughed eerily: "Kozuki clan, as long as you hand over this woman named Yamato, we will no longer concern ourselves with the troubles within your Wano Country..."

"How is this possible?"

Fire Fist Ace raised his palm, and a ball of flame suddenly erupted from it!

"yes!"

"Are you kidding me?!"

"Who do you guys think you are!"

The Kozuki clan's army immediately erupted in commotion towards the Konoha Pirates. Since Wano Country was not yet open to the outside world, they didn't know much about what was happening outside.

but…

There will always be someone who understands!

"shut up!"

A retainer of the Kozuki clan loudly reprimanded his subordinates.

After glancing at Yamato, he looked at Hiyori, the princess of the Kozuki clan whom they supported, and began to introduce her to information about the Konoha Pirates.

"The opponent is a formidable foe..."

"A formidable enemy we absolutely cannot defeat..."

"I saw it in the newspaper that Kurozumi Orochi received. They are the strongest pirate crew on the seas, and neither Kaido nor the World Government are their match..."

"..."

Hiyori remained silent.

"Your Highness!"

Another retainer of the Kozuki clan stepped forward and loudly urged, "No matter how strong the enemy is, we cannot abandon our fight alongside our allies!"

"but…"

The first retainer turned around angrily and shouted at the other man, "This is the best chance for the Kozuki clan to restore their power! Do you want the name of Kozuki to be completely destroyed here?!"

"..."

Fire Fist Ace turned to look at his two retainers, somewhat incredulous at the topic they were discussing. Were these two talking about betraying Yamato?

Are you kidding me?

Why would such a thing be discussed?

"..."

There was a clear hint of hurt in Yamato's eyes.

Just as the Kozuki clan was discussing, Kozuki Hiyori, a beautiful woman with long emerald hair, thought for a while, then slowly walked out from the crowd, her beautiful eyes slightly lowered, and bowed to the Konoha Pirates.

The princess of the Kozuki clan, known as the most beautiful woman in Wano Country, spoke in a soft, delicate voice: "Gentlemen, may I ask what grudge you hold against Lord Yamato? Would you allow us to discuss this at a tavern in the Flower Capital...?"

"Too much nonsense!"

A tall figure suddenly appeared next to Hiyori!

The beautiful woman kicked Hiyori and the stunning woman away, completely disregarding their beautiful faces. She simply pointed impatiently at the Kozuki clan's army and arrogantly declared, "Enough with the nonsense! You lot just need to obey Konoha's orders!"

"You're so beautiful!"

A group of retainers of the Kozuki clan immediately became enraged!

However, once they saw what the other person looked like, they immediately and instinctively stopped holding their weapons, even gaping in astonishment...

Without him.

Compared to Hiyori, the most beautiful woman in Wano Country, the woman with black hair before them was clearly even more breathtakingly beautiful. Standing before them was the most beautiful woman in the world…

Boa Hancock.

"Yamato!"

Fire Fist Ace no longer wanted to deal with the Kozuki clan retainers. He simply looked at Yamato beside him and said in a deep voice, "If Konoha's target is you, let's escape from here first!"

"No!"

Yamato shook his head, lowered his spiked club, raised his hands towards the Konoha Pirates, and said in a deep voice, "Let them take me away! If my life can end the war in Wano Country, I am willing to sacrifice myself like Lord Oden!"

"Yamato!"

Fire Fist Ace gritted his teeth, determined to stop Yamato.

As Yamato's friend, Ace absolutely did not want to see Yamato follow in the footsteps of Kozuki Oden, whose fate would be uncertain if she fell into the hands of the Konoha Pirates!

"Ace, don't stop me."

Yamato interrupted Ace, her voice resolute and firm: "Just as Lord Oden chose to sacrifice his life to end the war many years ago, I am willing to learn from Lord Oden and become his successor!"

"But Captain Oden..."

Portgas D. Ace believed that Yamato didn't need to learn that kind of thing. They could fight to the death, but they shouldn't just sit and wait to die. She had already foreseen the consequences of Kozuki Oden's sacrifice in Wano Country...

pity…

Yamato's mind is made up.

This daughter of Kaido of the Beasts chose to surrender to the Konoha Pirates for the sake of Wano Country's safety, choosing to give up all resistance.

"I can be disposed of as you see fit."

Yamato walked up to the Konoha Pirates and explained her situation very sincerely: "However, I am wearing shackles left to me by Kaido. These shackles will explode as soon as I leave Wano Country..."

These shackles are child's play for the Konoha Pirates.

The Konoha Pirates did not make things too difficult for Yamato. Orochimaru and Tobirama Senju only extracted some of Yamato's blood as experimental samples.

Since they had already obtained a blood sample from Yamato's father, Kaido of the Beasts, they were more concerned about the Mythical Zoan type, the Great Mouth True God Fruit, within Yamato.

"You may leave now..."

The Konoha Pirates generously released Yamato, announcing that she could leave with everyone present, without any intention of imprisoning her.

"what?"

Yamato never expected to be released.

"Thank you!"

Fire Fist Ace instantly appeared beside Yamato, pulling him away from Wano Country. He didn't want Yamato to get mixed up with the Kozuki clan again!

Those guys…

They were just discussing betraying Yamato!

The Whitebeard Pirates would never want to abandon a single crew member!

"Don't rush."

A voice called out to Fire Fist Ace.

"Fire Fist Ace..."

"There's one more thing..."

"Please pass on a message to Whitebeard..."

"Let him and all his men prepare for the final battle! This war will determine the fate of the entire New World seas..."

"No, I should say..."

"Deciding on the ownership of the entire ocean..."

"I will."

Fire Fist Ace glanced back at the Konoha Pirates and a group of White Zetsu soldiers, and nodded solemnly at them.

This kind of thing...

He already knew.

I just didn't expect it to come so quickly!

I must get back to Whitebeard's Sea as soon as possible and inform my father and the others to get ready!

Yamato glanced nervously at Ace, who was gripping his wrist, before whispering, "I didn't expect them to challenge the Whitebeard Pirates so quickly..."

"That's normal..."

Fire Fist Ace was not surprised at all.

Because the Konoha Pirates are down to just the Whitebeard Pirates...

"Little girl."

You said something wrong.

"It's not us challenging the Whitebeard Pirates, it's them challenging us..."

Sasori interrupted the conversation between Portgas D. Ace and Yamato, speaking coldly, "Everyone on this sea is qualified to participate in this final battle against Konoha; the Whitebeard Pirates are just one of them..."

"The World Economic News recently published the rules for participating in the final battle..."

"Go back and get ready..."

"This final battle will be the world's last end, and also its first hope..."

"..."

These guys…

Is it an attempt to challenge the entire world?

Fire Fist Ace stared at Sasori of the Red Sand, then scanned the members of the Konoha Pirates one by one. He couldn't read anything from their faces, only that their gazes seemed calm and peaceful, as if they didn't care at all about what Sasori had said...

"..."

Fire Fist Ace gritted his teeth and could only take Yamato and leap away from there.

only…

They did not leave immediately.

Yamato went to Onigashima, the base of the Beasts Pirates, to tell Queen the Plague that he was going to join the Whitebeard Pirates. Queen the Plague was so angry that he had a headache, but he couldn't stop Yamato's actions.

"Brother Kaido..."

"I'm so sorry..."

Queen, the Plague, could only kneel on the ground and weep bitterly as he watched Yamato and Fire Fist Ace leave together.

The Beasts Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates have been fighting for so long, they are practically sworn enemies. Yet Yamato, the young master of the Beasts Pirates, actually went to join that old man, Whitebeard!

I don't know...

Will that old bastard with the white beard really go all out...?

In fact.

The fact that Kaido's son chose to join the Whitebeard Pirates did not cause much of a stir. Edward Newgate himself did not resent his past conflict with Kaido and instead warmly welcomed Yamato's arrival.

In comparison…

Whitebeard was even more worried about what Fire Fist Ace had brought.

Just as Fire Fist Ace was rushing back to the Whitebeard Sea, the latest issue of the newspaper was released, detailing the rules for the Konoha Pirates to accept challenges from all over the world.

"Those monsters..."

The white-bearded man held a newspaper in his hand, his eyes narrowing as he looked at the published rules. His expression was unusually grave: "To actually create rules like this... what a bunch of lunatics..."

Preparation complete...

After One Piece ends, I'll probably do some Naruto side stories first. How about starting with a Sasuke story? After all, I'm a Sasuke fan...
