Konoha's Mission Master

Yakumo nodded slightly.

Marco...that makes sense.

With the last chest of gold and silver treasures being stuffed into the pirate ship, this lightning-fast surprise attack came to an end.

Yakumo glanced at the woman weeping on the deck, and a pang of pity rose in his heart…

“In this world, people are constantly experiencing suffering and torment. I know you are different from us... more principled, or rather, kinder, but you can't save everyone in the end.”

Marco keenly sensed the reluctance in Yakumo's eyes and said with a hint of comfort, "In a sense... Yakumo is a bit naive."

Upon hearing this, Yakumo was stunned for a moment.

That's right, the world of One Piece is full of villains... Whether it's the World Government or the Four Emperors of the New World, they all represent domineering rule and extreme oppression, making the lives of the lower-class residents miserable.

Of course, the exploitation by the world government is more subtle.

Among the Four Emperors, Kaido and Big Mom are even more capricious, always starting wars or massacres for inexplicable reasons.

Marco is right, he can't save everyone.

But now he's encountered... Should he just let these innocent girls be sent to the Holy Land of Mary Geoise and brutally whipped by those bubble people?

Yakumo lowered his head and looked at the bloodstains on his shoes.

He found this scene somewhat difficult to adapt to.

"I'll take them and leave first."

Yakumo walked to the side of the boat and formed a hand seal.

"Wood Release: The Technique of Creating a Boat on the Spot".

Yakumo imagined the shape of the ship in his mind.

Within the body… chakra response is depleting.

Witnessed by everyone, wooden strips grew from Yakumo's hands and began to weave in mid-air, eventually forming a somewhat incongruous wooden boat.

Do you have a Den Den Mushi (snail phone) for contacting the Revolutionary Army?

Yakumo asked Marco.

"this…"

Marco hesitated for a moment before handing Yakumo two Den Den Mushi. The yellow Den Den Mushi could be used to contact Marco directly, while the blue Den Den Mushi could be used to contact the Revolutionary Army.

"Thanks for your cooperation."

Yakumo smiled at Marco, then created shadow clones to move the girls into the cabin made of wood.

See you in about ten days...

Yakumo waved to Marco, while simultaneously forming hand seals to control the water flow and generate power, propelling the wooden boat through the surrounding seawater... Yakumo simply chose a direction.

Whitebeard and Fujitora separated and jumped back onto the pirate ship.

Its massive body leaped back onto the pirate ship.

Powered by Marco's flames, the pirate ship vanished at an incredible speed within Fujitora's Observation Haki range...

Fujitora stood quietly on the deck, smelling the blood in the air, finally confirming that all the marines who had fought alongside him had been slaughtered by the Whitebeard Pirates.

Anger gradually surged within him.

But Fujitora was somewhat powerless to do anything about it.

Twenty minutes later, the naval support force arrived, led by Sengoku and Garp, accompanied by the newly appointed Admiral Green Bull.

A new storm is brewing.

The theft of the heavenly gold is enough to shake the very sea!

But the Whitebeard Pirates had already fled.

Chapter 201 Dungeon World: Slaying the Four Emperors and Seven Demons

The next day, the sea trembled.

The heavenly gold offered as tribute from all corners of the world has been stolen!

The Whitebeard Pirates once again shocked the seas.

Two years ago, everyone thought the Whitebeard Pirates would fall into obscurity and be destroyed due to the Navy's encirclement and suppression.

But two years later, the Whitebeard Pirates proved with their actions that the rulers of the seas were still there!

In this major event, Yagami is also present, as if his very existence is an enemy of the Navy, from the Marineford War to the encirclement and suppression of Whitebeard, and the robbery of the Heavenly Gold a few days ago.

The Navy began to doubt Yakumo's true identity.

Five days later, Yakumo completed the handover of more than seventy girls to the Revolutionary Army's contact person. These girls would be arranged to live in the areas liberated by the Revolutionary Army.

However, thirty girls still plan to return to their hometowns.

This was a wrong decision.

Yakumo provided them with travel expenses, even though he knew that the chances of these girls successfully returning to their hometown were less than 1%.

But he has no right to make decisions for others.

In the past few days, he has finally understood many things.

Veteran players are obsessed with completing quests.

Kindness deep in one's heart.

These are two selves, and they are usually in harmony.

But now, goodwill and the mission are at odds.

When he sees so much evil being tolerated, his inherently kind nature begins to stir, influencing him to make less rational judgments.

In two days, Yakumo destroyed more than a dozen pirate ships he encountered along the way and liberated many enslaved civilians.

This time, Kera was the one who connected with Yakumo.

The girl with sapphire-like eyes who appeared in the original work, wearing goggles, was Sabo's childhood friend and had outstanding work abilities.

Within the revolutionary army, she was the equivalent of the female head housekeeper.

But now she's a little timid.

After all… standing before her was the most vicious criminal in history, the world’s strongest swordsman, the fifth emperor of the new world… nicknamed… the Thousand-Faced Demon Emperor!

Current bounty: 58 billion.

It can be described as...the best in the world.

"Actually... you don't need to be afraid."

Yakumo touched his nose and said with a hint of helplessness.

Kella subconsciously took a half step back and said somewhat awkwardly.

“Um… Mr. Yakumo, I’m not afraid.”

Kerla raised her head. Over the years, as a member of the Revolutionary Army, she had participated in various difficult missions and faced death dozens of times. She had become a qualified soldier and no longer needed to feel fear because of the strength of the target.

"Oh... really?"

Yakumo took a step forward.

Swish, swish, swish.

"Of course!"

Kerla quickly took a few steps back, her face flushing red, but she still stubbornly answered, though her sapphire-blue eyes were filled with timidity and fear.

The leader once said... The Thousand-Faced Demon Emperor is the most dangerous person on the entire sea.

This person's behavior was completely unpredictable, especially since the wreckage of a destroyed pirate ship was floating on the sea not far away.

"The revolutionary army helped me settle these girls this time, what price do you intend for me to pay?"

Yakumo smiled noncommittally and continued to ask. He was willing to bear certain costs for his kindness. Since he could not change the suffering in the world, he could change the suffering or oppression he encountered.

"Of course not!"

"Need not?"

"It is our mission to rescue and protect civilians from the Celestial Dragons. If you encounter similar situations in the future, you can contact us. There will be absolutely no cost involved."

Kerla answered immediately.

Yakumo was somewhat surprised to hear this.

The girl with orange hair bowed repeatedly to Yakumo to express her gratitude before leaving on a wooden ship. Yakumo sensed the power of conviction in her.

This force makes people brave and fearless, no longer afraid of sacrifice or suffering. This force... even if it is only a spark now... will one day start a prairie fire.

Yakumo stood quietly on the shore, gazing into the distance as the wooden boat disappeared at the horizon.

Kerla stood on the wooden boat, looking at the boy standing on the beach, and suddenly smiled.

"...It's not as scary as the rumors say at all."

On the other hand, the Whitebeard Pirates have already sent people to pick up Yakumo, and all the high-ranking officers of the Navy are currently on their way to besiege the Whitebeard Pirates.

The two sides have already fought several major battles in the New World.

At this moment, the Whitebeard Pirates... need Yakumo, a top-tier fighter, to return as soon as possible, and his third mission has once again become full of twists and turns.

Marco was not in charge of picking up Yakumo this time. Due to the volatile situation, Marco had to stay on the Moby Dick and be on high alert.

Three days later, Yakumo returned to the Moby Dick.

Despite his white beard and numerous wounds, his imposing presence remained undiminished.

Yakumo quickly created shadow clones to treat the injured members of the Whitebeard Pirates, paying special attention to Whitebeard, whose condition had worsened.

In the evening, it was another feast of food and drink and a wild party.

Whitebeard sat in the main seat, a huge sake vat beside him, drinking heartily... During this time, the Whitebeard Pirates had suffered several major battles, and many of their brothers and sisters were forever lost in the New World. These people carried a heavy burden of pressure, and drinking was their way of relieving that pressure.
