Uchiha's personal opinion

Uchiha Tokumitsu said, "Moreover, this is an important mission that can only succeed and cannot fail!"

Minato Namikaze nodded solemnly.

"We've captured far too little sea stone. It's not even enough for compositional analysis, let alone for developing effective weapons..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu sighed: "So, this time we have no choice but to send you on this mission."

"We will certainly live up to our mission!"

Minato Namikaze stamped his foot and bowed again.

"That's fine. Report to the Second Legion tomorrow. Lord Fugaku has already arranged a language teacher. After you and your subordinates complete your basic studies, he will send you to the Sabaody Archipelago to smuggle yourself into the New World, the second half of the Grand Line."

"Xinhu has already established a smuggling route, and he will arrange the specific details."

"However, there will definitely be many obstacles along the way to Wano Country. Moreover, apart from the name of the country, we know nothing about its location or the distribution of power within it. Therefore, you will need to proceed with caution and adapt accordingly..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu kept urging, "In addition, if possible, try to contact and communicate with various pirate crews in the New World. It would be even better if an alliance could be formed."

"If we were to form an alliance, what terms would you be willing to offer?"

Minato Namikaze didn't care much about other things, but he got excited whenever Tokumitsu Uchiha mentioned 'alliance'!

This is a great opportunity to form alliances and achieve great success!

If he can achieve this, he is very likely to go a step further and become a leader of a department in the Ninja World Government at the age of just over twenty!

For Minato, who was obsessed with officialdom, nothing could be more inspiring!

"Whoever enters Mary Geoise first shall be king of the world!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu said, "At the same time, all territories can be governed according to the boundaries of the occupied areas, and all those who attempt to change the status quo will be attacked together!"

Since promises don't cost money, Uchiha Tokumitsu didn't mind making empty promises before a full-scale war broke out. As for whether the pirate crews in the New World would take the bait, Uchiha Tokumitsu didn't care much. He was just killing two birds with one stone, since he had nothing better to do anyway.

"As ordered!"

With a face full of excitement, Minato Namikaze bowed again before taking his leave.

Not long after, the Imperial Guard ninjas led Ashura into the hall.

Where is Black Zetsu?

Uchiha Tokumitsu was somewhat surprised to see Ashura enter the hall alone.

"Here..."

Ashura took out an amber bottle from his robes, unsealed it, and poured out the black amber inside.

"...I have a special task for you and Kuroko."

Uchiha Tokumitsu glanced at Black Zetsu, who seemed somewhat bewildered, and then spoke.

"Go ahead and say it."

Ashura nodded.

"According to Shiina's report, there seems to be an anti-government armed force called the Revolutionary Army in the pirate world. I need you and Kuroko to infiltrate it together..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu took out the documents again and handed them over, saying, "If possible, seek a high position within them and influence the Revolutionary Army's strategic course."

To what extent should it be done?

Ashura took the documents and flipped through them casually.

"You can flexibly handle either influencing the revolutionary army's decisions or directly forming an alliance with them as a special envoy..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu said, "Shiina-sei's advance force will cooperate."

"What terms can we offer if we form an alliance?"

Ashura raised an eyebrow, suddenly becoming interested.

While it feels good to carry out justice and punish evil in the ninja world, it is obviously more interesting to start an armed struggle in another world!

"Whoever enters Mary Geoise first shall be king."

Uchiha Tokumitsu offered the same conditions.

Chapter 516 World Chaos

"The calm zone will soon cease to exist..."

Admiral Kuzan, still stationed at Impel Down and enduring the occasional bombardment and harassment from the First Legion fleet, had a gloomy face. Looking at the increasingly obvious waves on the sea, coupled with the blowing of the breeze, his mood was even worse.

"It's not just the doldrums, the magnetic field is also malfunctioning..."

Standing behind him, Impel Down Warden Magellan pulled a permanent pointer from his pocket, shook his head and sighed as he looked at the wildly swinging pointer: "By the way, any results from the investigation into Cipher Pol?"

"not yet……"

General Kuzan shook his head. "What is clear is that the park is currently the most affected."

"...So you mean there will be problems in the New World too?"

Magellan asked in a low voice.

"The magnetic field of Upside Down Mountain is all messed up, how can the New World not have problems!"

General Kuzan exhaled a frosty breath, his mood growing increasingly heavy.

"The windless zone of the new world..."

Magellan asked in great surprise.

Although he is also one of the high-ranking officials in the World Government, and his status is no less than that of a Marine Admiral, Impel Down, which he oversees, is ultimately a closed detention facility.

"It was bound to happen sooner or later, it just won't cause problems as quickly as the amusement park did."

General Kuzan replied in a deep voice.

Even though Magellan's job was merely to guard Impel Down, he still found it a headache.

After all, one of the core security barriers of Impel Down is the Calm Belt, which prevents pirate sailing warships from harassing the city and prisoners from escaping. If the Calm Belt begins to weaken or even disappears as predicted by the Navy's scientific forces, the impact on the entire world order would be enormous.

"Instead of worrying about the calm zone, let's figure out how to repel these attackers..."

Admiral Kuzan pointed to the murky sea surface, which was constantly emitting a strong stench of blood, and said, "In a little while, all those sea kings in the ocean will probably be wiped out!"

"...Why don't you freeze the entire sea surface, take control of their warships, and then we can fight our way out together?"

Magellan probed with a hint of a joke.

Although he appeared calm and composed at this moment, and even displayed a heroic demeanor when pointing out the ocean and commenting on the World Government, Magellan was actually under tremendous pressure as the person in charge of Impel Down.

Especially after the First Fleet launched multiple attacks that destroyed most of the ships that were reinforcing the navy, they also began to detect attacks from underwater.

The underwater attack also demonstrates that the fleet, which has been maintaining a siege and harassment posture, is fully capable of destroying Impel Down's underwater structures from the ground up.

Although he didn't understand why the fleet roaming the sea hadn't launched a full-scale attack, Magellan was still somewhat uneasy facing the sword of Damocles that always hung over his head.

After all, neither he nor Admiral Kuzan had the means to ambush attacks from the seabed.

As for Magellan's absurd suggestion, Admiral Kuzan merely glanced at him before continuing to observe the sea surface where blood was once again rising.

"There's a sea king..."

Magellan didn't say much, but followed Admiral Kuzan's gaze to the increasingly murky and foul-smelling sea surface, where more of the Sea King's remains were surfacing.

Based on the characteristics of the sea king's remains, it was determined that another sea king monster, resembling a giant squid, was killed by the 'giant turtle sea monster' controlled by the mysterious fleet.

"It's only been two months..."

Magellan sighed.

"It's been two months..."

General Kuzan, whose mission to reinforce and defeat the enemy had essentially failed, had a different feeling.

"By the way, Sengoku has been promoted. Who will take over the position of general?"

Magellan decided to change the subject and talk about something a bit lighter, like officialdom: "Karp? Tsuru? Or..."

"...Borusalino".

General Kuzan remained silent for a moment before replying quietly.

"Kizaru..."

Magellan raised an eyebrow, feeling somewhat surprised yet also finding it reasonable.

Moreover, he sensed something unusual in Kuzan's form of address...

'These are turbulent times, we mustn't let anything go wrong...'

Thinking of this, Magellan's face also turned gloomy.

……

While still in the East China Sea dealing with Vice Admiral Garp's Buster Call fleet, Uchiha Shiina felt that life at sea was becoming more and more comfortable.

Two months had passed since the First Army Fleet first besieged Impel Down, and twenty days had passed since Uchiha Tokumitsu officially sowed the seeds of the Divine Tree in the pirate world.

Although Uchiha Shiina was very cautious after receiving the naval combat analysis intelligence shared by Impel Down, and avoided direct combat with the Navy, especially avoiding large-scale naval battles, he adopted a strategy of breaking through in groups to thoroughly stir up the waters of the East Blue, the vanguard fleet still encountered two ambushes by the Navy. Although the casualties were not very heavy, two old-style ironclad ships were completely sunk by "Iron Fist" Garp in the encounters.

But all of this began to change fifteen days ago.

First, a group of clueless merchant ships strayed from the Grand Line and entered the East Blue. Then, the Memory Pointer began to malfunction, causing pirates to run rampant and pushing the turmoil in the East Blue to a new peak.

Furthermore, although Kirigakure's "Kirigakure Pirates" disappeared after their defeat in the first battle, the vanguard fleet, still flying the Kirigakure banner, continued to conquer cities and territories everywhere. Wherever they went, they annihilated nobles and wiped out royal families. As for "righteous deeds" such as distributing land and wealth to the rich, they were commonplace. Therefore, they made a great name for themselves in the East Blue in a very short time.

As for other small pirate crews that were envious or admired the reputation of the Hidden Mist Pirates, they followed suit and also chose to wreak havoc in the East Blue under the banner of the Hidden Mist Pirates. This caused considerable trouble for Vice Admiral Garp's Buster Call fleet - because they found that the more pirates they tried to eliminate, the more pirates there seemed to be in the East Blue!

Even the Navy Headquarters felt something was amiss after receiving the almost endless 'victories' from the Buster Call fleet, and specially dispatched a special agent to 'boost morale' the troops and, incidentally, find out the actual situation.

However, Vice Admiral Garp also had his own unspeakable difficulties.

After all, those imposter pirate crews that are impossible to eradicate are also killing and burning everywhere, and their impact on the order of the member states is even greater than that of the legitimate 'Kigakure Pirates'. In addition, the letters of appeal sent by the royal families of the member states are almost sinking his flagship. Naturally, he cannot ignore the disaster happening right under his nose and choose to abandon the member states in dire straits and wander aimlessly at sea in search of the real 'Kigakure Pirates'.

Otherwise, how can the navy's legitimacy be demonstrated?

But the navy isn't stupid.

Whether it's the lowest-ranking marines or the officers, everyone knows the difference in merit quantification between ordinary pirates and Kirigakure pirates—and this group of pirates, although weak, still flies the banner of Kirigakure, claiming to be the leader of a certain fleet of the Kirigakure pirate crew, etc., plus their countless blood debts and mountains of evidence, so who can say that these heads are not Kirigakure pirates? And who dares to say that these kills are not Kirigakure pirates that have been wiped out?

"This is the Hidden Mist Pirates!"
