Konoha's Mission Master

The roaring waves eventually subsided.

At that time, Yakumo won.

But his life was hanging by a thread.

Whitebeard had witnessed Yakumo's weakness at that time.

But now Yakumo appears in the medical room unharmed.

Whitebeard was able to confirm that Yakumo was truly alive, and most importantly, he didn't look injured at all.

Even with his strong will, it took him a few seconds to recover.

"You always manage to create miracles beyond my imagination."

A gentle smile appeared on Whitebeard's face. Marco picked up the huge cushion, while Ace used his arms to lift Whitebeard up.

Let him lean against the cushion.

After Whitebeard sat up, he could look Yakumo in the eye directly; his massive body brought a sense of oppression.

Yakumo didn't respond. After all, Whitebeard's sigh touched on his biggest secret, and he didn't want to continue weaving lies.

"Actually, there is a way to prolong life, but I want to state in advance that even I don't have a sure chance of success. If I can pull through, I can live for a while longer... but if I fail, I will turn into a big tree."

"Haha, turning into a big tree is a way of dying that I never imagined."

The white-bearded man joked with a smile.

Yakumo could no longer feel the deadly pressure that Whitebeard once exerted on him. Back then, when he first entered the world of pirates, Whitebeard was still an insurmountable peak for him.

Now, he finally possesses top-tier combat power in the pirate world.

But the white-bearded hero was nearing the end of his life.

From our first meeting to the present situation.

Yakumo's thoughts were complex. On one hand, he thought that Whitebeard was living too painfully and it would be better for him to die sooner... as a kind of relief.

On the other hand, he did not want the hero to end his life in such a way.

"However... I want to give it a try."

Whitebeard finally made his choice.

"Alright... I will do my best to prepare."

Yakumo created a shadow clone to continue nurturing Whitebeard's body, while his main body and Marco turned and left the medical room.

Ace exchanged a few words with Whitebeard and then got up to leave.

He also needs to leave Fishman Island to find the materials Yakumo needs.

On the massive deck of the Moby Dick.

"This surgery... requires a lot of materials."

Yakumo took out a scroll from his ninja tool bag.

He immediately began writing rapidly with the fountain pen he carried with him, and numerous names of medicinal herbs and instruments appeared on the pristine white scroll.

Marco took the scroll from Yakumo.

He immediately began reading, some of the material of which he had heard of before.

Some of them are simply unheard of.

The sheer number far exceeded his expectations.

At this moment, he truly believed that Yakumo was confident he could revive Whitebeard. However, the materials in front of him certainly couldn't be gathered in a short time through legitimate means.

Marco quickly made a judgment: the only option was to rob... for example, the World Government's research and medical bases, or the Navy's branches.

"Is there a problem? If there is a problem, I can make an abridged version, but the success rate of the surgery will be extremely low."

Seeing Marco's troubled expression, Yakumo said...

"There's a slight problem, but it's not serious... We should be able to gather everything by tomorrow morning."

Marco patted his chest and assured them, and then the entire Whitebeard Pirates began to assemble urgently. A dozen minutes later, the captains of all the divisions gathered on the deck and greeted Yakumo.

The Moby Dick began its coating process and is ready to depart.

If you make Fishman Island your base, you'll waste a lot of time going back and forth on deep dives, since not everyone has a jet boat that shoots blue flames.

Marco decided to move.

But they couldn't escape the navy's eyes and ears.

A great war is inevitable, a war of life and death!

After half an hour of intense activity.

The contents of the entire scroll are divided into four parts.

Marco, Ace, Jozu, and Vista each led their own teams and set off with the Moby Dick as the center.

Collect all the items on the scroll within the next sixteen hours.

Before setting off.

Yakumo extended the sixteen-hour period to twenty-eight hours.

Sixteen hours is too tight.

They are very likely to choose to sacrifice themselves, regardless of their own lives.

"Then let's begin..."

"A massive 28-hour rescue operation!"

Chapter 230 Dungeon World: The King's Redemption III

The giant ship broke through the sea surface and moved slowly.

Yakumo sat cross-legged on the deck, lost in thought.

Marco has returned twice, and Yakumo now knows the source of the materials: a small portion was transported from the New World's territories, while the majority was directly stolen from the Navy and the World Government.

After several times, Marco smelled of blood. Although he tried to keep his spirits up, he could not hide the exhaustion in his eyes.

Another piece of bad news is that the USS Moby Dick has been locked onto by the Navy, with warships already tracking it from dozens of kilometers away.

Whitebeard's looted items this time were mostly cutting-edge medical equipment and medicinal herbs rich in life-giving properties.

The Navy has analyzed the Whitebeard Pirates' plans and is frantically trying to stop them, thus extending Whitebeard's life for the third time through the hand of the Thousand-Faced Demon Emperor.

The Navy will not allow that monstrous man... to stand up again.

Even though they estimated the success rate of the surgery to be low, they still did not intend to let the surgery proceed as planned.

The medical bases surrounding the USS Moby Dick are rapidly increasing their troop numbers.

The sky was filled with countless stars, and flames instantly filled the sea.

"fire punch!"

The high-pitched roar could be clearly heard even dozens of kilometers away, and the flames lit up the sea, making the surrounding night sky as bright as day.

On his way back, Ace encountered the Navy and a battle ensued.

Marco barely mustered his spirits, transforming his arms into fire wings. Although he wasn't worried about Ace's safety, he was afraid that the precious materials he had obtained would be destroyed by the Navy, since those materials were related to Whitebeard's life.

Just as he was about to take off.

With a powerful leap, Yakumo's figure vanished from the deck of the giant ship, leaving only a few words that slowly dissipated.

"You rest well, I'll go take a look."

The distance of tens of kilometers was covered in an instant.

The Kusanagi sword and the Fuma sword slid out of their scabbards. Yakumo was already ready for battle, while Ace was locked in combat with Vice Admiral Mole in mid-air.

"Ace, you go back first. I'll take care of the Navy."

Yakumo ran on the waves, casually unleashing a hundred-meter-long blade of energy that destroyed two warships. A large number of marines fell into the sea, and a huge whirlpool slowly formed.

"Immortal Technique·Water Release·Big Explosive Water Wave!"

bump.

midair.

Ace forced the enemy back with a single punch, then left with his men without looking back. Clearly, he understood that the materials and equipment he had painstakingly acquired were more important than the battle itself.

The mole ultimately did not dare to continue the pursuit; Yakumo's mere presence on the sea surface posed a near-fatal threat to him.

He had even begun to think about how to escape from Yakumo.

The mole lands on a floating platform on the sea surface.

The two looked at each other.

Giant waves occasionally rolled up on the sea, obscuring their view. Cold sweat appeared on the mole's cheeks; today might very well be the day he would die.

"Here's some information for you, for free: my clone is on its way to the Holy Land Mary Geoise. Compared to annihilating the Whitebeard Pirates, protecting those pig-like bubble people... isn't that your top priority?"

But then he suddenly remembered... he shouldn't have insulted pigs like that.

"No, they're worse than pigs."

After Yakumo finished speaking, he turned and left. In fact, this was not unfounded. He had planned long ago to attract the Navy's attention by causing a disturbance at the Holy Land Mary.

While in the Sabaody Archipelago, he left behind a shadow clone to disguise himself before heading to the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, his target being the Celestial Dragons who claimed to be the creators of the world.

The mole realized that things were gradually getting out of the Navy's control, so he took out a Den Den Mushi on the spot and contacted Fleet Admiral Aokiji.

Upon hearing the news, Aokiji immediately contacted the Five Elders, who once again spent a sleepless night.

The Thousand-Faced Demon Emperor is a true anomaly among all the powerful beings.

Their methods are unpredictable and their actions are completely illogical.

Soon, the Five Elders issued their orders.
