XX-level Hokage

[Human Path - Soul Extraction]

In an instant, Mashiro unleashed five skills on Nasujuro Sei.

The five senses manipulation blocked Nasujiro Sei's perception of his body, Geass planted the seed of slavery in Nasujiro Sei's heart, visual memory made a slight modification to Nasujiro Sei's memories, illusion magic loosened Nasujiro Sei's heart, and finally, the Human Path Soul Extraction affected the soul implanted in Nasujiro Sei.

Because of the Void Stone, Mashiro can't do too much, but as long as she doesn't change Nasujuro Sei's current situation, the seed will eventually have a chance to sprout.

Retracting his hand, Mashiro simultaneously deactivated his ability. Due to [Five Senses Manipulation], Nasujuro Sei didn't notice any change. "What a beautiful sword!" Nasujuro Sei exclaimed, gazing at the sky filled with pink "cherry blossoms."

“It is indeed incredibly beautiful.” As she spoke, all the cherry blossoms gathered into Senbonzakura. Mashiro released her hand, and Senbonzakura disappeared from the spot. “I’m preparing to leave the sacred land for a while,” Mashiro said softly.

"Should we send a navy officer along?" Nasujiro asked without inquiring about the reason. "Just send a woman familiar with the route," Mashiro replied after a moment's thought.

She initially wanted to refuse, but then she thought that it would be easy to run into trouble if she built her own pirate ship. It would be better to take a navy warship, and since she didn't know the sea routes, she agreed.

“I understand,” Nasujiro nodded.

Unaware of his own unease, he readily agreed to Mashiro's request. Leaving Pangaea, Mashiro returned to the palace in Sassarian.

"How was it? Did you see the Poneglyphs?" Tenzuki asked from the side hall where Shinbai was lying on the bed.

"I saw it, but unfortunately, I don't recognize the characters," Qi Bai said with a hint of helplessness. "Isn't that a real shame?" Tian Yue Shi said with a touch of regret.

"No rush, there will be plenty of opportunities. This time, we'll reap even greater rewards." Stroking Tenzuki Toki's hair, Mashiro said with a smile. "Greater rewards?" Tenzuki Toki looked at Mashiro with great curiosity.

"A seed has been planted." Mashiro lay on Tenzuki Toki's lap and said, her eyes fixed on him.

"Seeds?" Tianyue Shi was even more puzzled. Wasn't it a harvest? How did it get involved with seeds? Did they go to plant trees?

"You'll find out later." Mashiro adjusted her head, resting her face against Amatsuki's soft belly, and whispered. "Okay." Amatsuki didn't mind, gently stroking Mashiro's hair.

"Oh, right, we're leaving Mary Geoise tomorrow." Mashiro suddenly remembered this and said. "Leaving? Where to?" Amatsuki Toki asked.

"Our future home." "~!!!"

In the second stage, after informing Queen Rognir that Mashiro was going out, she arrived at the entrance to Mary Geoise with Amatsuki.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, Mashiro still wore the Celestial Dragon's Sky Suit and the transparent helmet that was standard for going out.

This outfit made Amatsuki chuckle to herself several times. She walked to the entrance.

Ignoring the kneeling civilians around him.

A female navy woman with a ponytail walked over.

"Hello, Lord Izumi, I am Vice Admiral Tsuru, the Marine responsible for protecting you this time." The female Marine introduced herself in an exceptionally clear voice.

"Lieutenant General Tsuru... this is truly an unexpected yet not unexpected turn of events," Mashiro thought to herself.

“Hello, Vice Admiral Tsuru, I am Sassarian Tousen-gu. I recently became a Celestial Dragon, and I'm counting on you for this.” Mashiro said. Upon hearing this, Tsuru was instantly stunned.

This wasn't her first encounter with Celestial Dragons, but she had never seen one with such an attitude.

A Celestial Dragon who just became one? How interesting. The swan's aloofness lessened somewhat.

Chapter Sixty-Eight: Mary Geoise (Part Five)

Throat...and some more weird and strange Paramecia-type abilities. Looks like I really need to find time to learn Haki; who knows, maybe some bizarre and special power will...

"I fell for it without even realizing it," Sparrow thought, looking at the crane's abilities displayed on the panel.

"Please come with me, Your Highness, Taoquan Palace." With that, Tsuru led Mashiro and Kanzuki towards a warship docked at a special shipping route port. Although somewhat reluctant, as a member of the navy, Tsuru would fulfill her duty.

One day ago. Naval Headquarters.

The office of Admiral Steel Bones, currently serving at the Navy Headquarters.

"Okay, I understand." Kong hung up the Den Den Mushi. "What's wrong, Kong Marshal?" Tsuru asked.

At this moment, Tsuru was already a naval staff officer, reporting her recent work to Kong. "It's Nasujuro Sei," Kong said somewhat helplessly.

"The Five Elders? Could it be related to the Celestial Dragons?" Tsuru continued to ask.

“That’s right. A member of the Guanlong clan is leaving Mary Geoise to go out and has to ask our Sea Chariot to send someone to protect him,” Steelbone Kong replied.

"The Fleet Admiral should be quite adept at this kind of thing. How many times have the Celestial Dragons needed our Navy to clean up their messes? Just send a Rear Admiral with a warship, fly the Celestial Dragon flag, and I don't think anyone would dare to cause trouble for both the World Government and the Navy at the same time," Tsuru said calmly, tidying up the reports in her hands.

"This time is different. It was personally notified by the Five Elders. It seems to be a person of high status among the Guanlong people. Logically, in this situation, an admiral should be sent, but he specifically requested a female vice admiral and a warship." Steelbone sighed.

It's important to understand that female vice admirals are extremely rare in the entire Navy Headquarters, let alone female vice admirals with experience and contact with the Celestial Dragons. The personalities and temperaments of the Celestial Dragons are generally unacceptable to most Navy personnel.

"Marshal, do you mean... you're plotting against me?" Tsuru put down the report in her hand, looked at Sora, and asked. "As expected of Tsuru, you're so clever," Sora said with a smile.

“But I’ve already completed my tasks for this month, and now it’s my time to rest,” He said in a somewhat indifferent tone.

"Consider this a temporary task. After this task is completed, we won't assign you any new tasks next month. You'll be given a month's leave."

There's no other way. If you think about it carefully, you're the only one in the entire headquarters who meets the criteria. As the future Chief of Staff, a naval hero, and a close friend of a naval admiral.

Even the Celestial Dragons wouldn't dare to do anything excessive to you, and the Celestial Dragon who went out this time was a woman; she's probably just looking around, so you can treat it as a publicly funded trip. "Steel Bone Kong said with a smile.

He Si hesitated for a moment, then sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, I understand. I'll go tomorrow." "Thank you for your trouble," Steelbone Kong said with a smile.

It's important to know that as the Fleet Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, and a Fleet Admiral known for his toughness, Kong is an extremely serious person. There are very few people in the entire world who can speak to him in such a gentle manner.

Or perhaps it's because Tsuru's identity is too special—she's the future Chief of Staff of the Navy, and a close friend of both the Navy hero Garp and Admiral Sengoku. It can be said that she is one of the future controllers of the Navy.

"Alright, this is the warship we'll be on next. My room is right next to yours. Feel free to ask me anytime if you have any questions," Tsuru said as she led Mashiro and Toki to the room prepared for them.

"Anytime is fine?" Zhen Zi asked meaningfully.

“Of course, it would be best if you didn't come looking for me tonight,” Tsuru said, seemingly understanding Wen but not quite. To this, Masashi smiled but remained silent; she quite liked Tsuru's personality.

"Also, where should we go first from Taoquan Palace?" He asked calmly.

"Let's go to the Sabaody Archipelago first, the closest place to here, and buy some things we need." Mashiro said with a smile. "Okay, I'll arrange it." With that, Tsuru turned and left.

After Tsuru left, Tenzuki said with some curiosity, "Is this the Navy? It's a bit different from what I expected. I thought it would be more lenient." "If it were just facing you, her attitude would definitely be much gentler, but Guan Longren's reputation is extremely high," Mashiro said with a smile.

“That’s true. I really can’t say anything good about the world’s nobles. I never imagined that the descendants of the 20 kings, whom I thought were so respected, would turn out like this.” Amatsuki said with some emotion, thinking about what she had seen and heard in Mary Geoise these past few days.

“Toki is still very young,” Mashiro said with a smile, gently stroking Toki’s hair. “Heh heh, but Mashiro shouldn’t be much older than me either,” Toki said with a laugh. “Age isn’t something you can tell from appearances,” Mashiro said softly.

"Okay, anyway, I sometimes don't understand what you're saying, but anyway, Mashiro is always reliable." Jumping up and lying on the bed, Amatsuki Toki said softly.

The Sabaody Archipelago is located below Mary Geoise. Through a special shipping route, warships can reach the special shipping port of the Sabaody Archipelago in just four or five hours.

They disembarked from the warship.

Tsuru followed beside Mashiro and Toki. The other Marines spoke from the front and back.

The civilians of the Sabaody Archipelago, upon seeing Mashiro in her signature skysuit and transparent helmet, all knelt on the ground, too afraid to look up. "Oh dear, this is truly terrifying," Mashiro said.

"What, even someone as noble as Izumi-no-miya can be concerned with the plight of ordinary people, or is it just a passing fancy?" Tsuru said with a hint of sarcasm. Mashiro looked at Tsuru; the girl she was at this age was far from being comparable to the girl she would become later, after all, she was still young.

"I've only been a Celestial Dragon for a little over a week, so it's normal to feel a bit out of sorts. But soon, this feeling of unease will become normal," Mashiro said softly.

"So, it turns out that only after passing through several trials did one become a Guanlongren (a high-ranking official) under the Taoquan Palace? That's truly surprising," Crane said, her tone unusually surprised.

Although she had heard Fleet Admiral Kong mention that the Celestial Dragon she was responsible for protecting had not been a Celestial Dragon for very long, she did not expect it to be such a short time. But, didn't the Fleet Admiral say that the other party was a very high-ranking Celestial Dragon? Had he already reached such a high rank in such a short time as a Celestial Dragon?

"Are you wondering why someone like me, who's only been a Celestial Dragon for such a short time, could have a Celestial Dragon personally call Marine Headquarters?" Mashiro asked with a smile, looking at Tsuru.

The crane remained silent, which implied acquiescence.

“Perhaps it’s because I’m very strong,” Mashiro said softly. “Strong?”

He was stunned for a moment. She considered many reasons: noble status, strong bloodline, innate intelligence, or being a member of the Five Elders family. But the only one she didn't think of was Qiang.

Mashiro gently patted Tsuru's shoulder.

The crane lowered its head to look at Mashiro. In an instant.

Mashiro's eyes suddenly turned into light blue tomoe Rinnegan, and then into light green tomoe Rinnegan.

Immediately afterwards, an irresistible force filled Crane's mind. Fear, despair.

The crane's body froze instantly, leaving only a slight, uncontrollable tremor. Overwhelmed by intense fear, the crane briefly lost control of its body.

At that moment, she seemed to see a pair of enormous eyes looking down at her in her mind. This was a feeling she had never experienced before.

That feeling that threatened to reduce her to nothing, stripping her of even the courage to run away or scream, was now being used on Tsuru, just as Mashiro had used on Tsuru's granddaughter in the future.

This is the captivating power of the Rinnegan with its tomoe. It instills immense fear in others through its powerful eye energy. Mashiro calls it "Eye Technique: Fear".

This ability has a major drawback: it's useless to the weak and unusable by the strong. At this point, the crane belongs to the category of the strong.

Therefore, the crane regained its senses in just a moment.

The feeling she experienced earlier left a deep impression on her, but it didn't cause her the same psychological trauma as the peacock. For Mashiro, however, it was enough.

Chapter Sixty-Nine: Mary Geoise (Part Six)

“That was…” Crane swallowed hard.

Mashiro pointed to her eyes and said with a light laugh, "You should be able to tell from my eyes that I'm a special race." Tsuru paused for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Although many people in the world are born with unique eyes, she had never seen one as special as Mashiro's before. Calling it a special race was completely within her acceptable range.

"My eyes are called Byakugan, and they possess a special ability: soul-capturing." Mashiro chuckled lightly, speaking with a hint of feigned sincerity. "Soul-capturing?" Tsuru murmured to herself.

"This is a special power that can instill fear from the depths of one's heart. Once I grow a little more, these eyes will even be able to detach from a person's soul," Mashiro said softly, looking at Tsuru.

Thinking back to the fear and despair he had felt just now, and looking at the sparrow's milky white eyes, Tsuru suddenly understood what Mashiro meant by "powerful".

"Such powerful strength? I've never even heard of such a race before. I'm so ignorant," Crane said softly.

"My race is reduced to just me now, it's normal that you haven't heard of me." Mashiro chuckled, holding up one finger, her tone tinged with sadness.

"I'm so sorry to have brought up your painful memories," He said with a hint of tenderness. People have always held two kinds of people in high esteem: the powerful and the noble.

For Tsuru, although Mashiro was a noble person before, in a sense, she was also a noble person, and she was also a powerful person.

Therefore, she had no respect for Mashiro. But now it's different.

Mashiro is also a strong person, and even stronger than her.
