Konoha's task master

While on deck.

Yakumo was keenly aware of the change in Marco's expression. He was clearly saying that he would risk life and death just a few days ago.

But when Yakumo's request goes against the Whitebeard Pirates' own interests, Marco will still... weigh the pros and cons.

"Sure enough, commitment is something..."

"It only becomes real the moment it is spoken."

At that moment, Yakumo saw through Marco's true nature.

The most important thing in his heart is always the Whitebeard Pirates. Just because he is useful to the Whitebeard Pirates, he will go to great lengths and even be extremely sincere to win over and please them.

Especially when Whitebeard fell completely, and he was the life-saving straw of the Whitebeard Pirates at that time, Marco did not hesitate to make a promise to go through fire and water after complaining and showing weakness.

But when Whitebeard truly recovered, his importance to the Whitebeard Pirates quickly declined.

The promise to go through fire and water has become empty talk.

Marco is not as righteous as he imagined, and Whitebeard is not purely heroic, but his behavior is a bit simple. When he can hold back, he is moved by the love of his family and goes all out.

The only exception is Ace...

He is indeed the same as he is and extremely sincere.

Yakumo retracted his thoughts. He originally made friends with the Whitebeard Pirates because he could use them to consolidate his mission goals.

But unconsciously, Yakumo became attentive.

Seeing that it was still early, Yakumo picked up the first piece of information and read it over and over.

From arrest to torture during interrogation.

Yakumo gradually clenched his fists, feeling slightly annoyed in his heart.

In fact...he has long seen through the reality of the world.

In previous lives, most of the worries came from lack of money.

In this world, most of the anger comes from weakness.

His right fist was clenched tightly, with veins popping out.

"After all, it's still not strong enough."

If he is strong enough, he can completely overthrow the world government and kill all the strong people who stand in the way. Just like in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, even the last ghost king Mukan can be easily killed by the sword.

The night is getting darker.

Yakumo had dinner and set off on Marco's boat.

In less than half an hour, the Chambord Islands were in sight.

"By the way, during the last battle with Blackbeard, I discovered that his physique is quite special. If my predictions are correct, he may be able to carry the power of two Devil Fruits."

Yakumo jumped off the boat and reminded Marco.

"You mean the soul fruit... Blackbeard plans to eat it himself?"

Marco obviously didn't believe it. After all, the idea of ​​a person with double fruit abilities sounded too unbelievable. In the information he had, there was no record of anyone with double fruit abilities.

But when he saw Yakumo's expression, it didn't look like he was just talking.

"That's right."

Yakumo nodded and walked towards the Shampoo Islands.

Having said this, whether you believe it or not has nothing to do with Yakumo.

Tonight, the moonlight is beautiful, and the mist spreads from Yakumo's hands.

Chambord Islands, Tree No. 12.

There is a rather old warehouse here, with the door closed... The warehouse was built ten years ago and has not been leased to outsiders or used in any form.

It's as if the people who built the warehouse have forgotten about the warehouse.

Even the corners of the frame are covered with thick cobwebs, but in fact this is one of the strongholds of the CP department stationed in the Shampoo Islands.

Due to the special geographical location of the Chambord Islands, Celestial Dragons often come with slaves to walk around or acquire new slaves.

For this reason, the World Government has specially set up three CP strongholds on the archipelago to take turns guarding them.

At this time, several men in neat black suits were quickly processing documents under the lamp. They were originally stationed at the Chambord Islands as a casual job, but the Thousand-Faced Demon King appeared in the Chambord Islands a few days ago.

Idle work suddenly became busy.

On that day, three Celestial Dragons from the Chambord Islands returned to the Holy Land Marie Joa overnight. Although they were proud, they were also afraid of death. After all, nearly a hundred Celestial Dragons had died at the hands of the Thousand-Faced Demon Emperor.

From that day on, the three major strongholds jointly investigated the intelligence about the Thousand-Faced Demon King, and finally locked onto the merchant ship he had once traveled on.

But after being arrested, it was discovered that their encounter with the Thousand-Faced Demon King was just a coincidence.

Several days of hard work were in vain.

At that time, the commander of CP6 was so angry that he ordered all members of the caravan to be strangled.

At this moment, there was a click.

The sound of breaking glass could be heard in the quiet warehouse.

"Be careful...there are enemies."

The leader spoke softly, and the muscles in his body gradually burst out, squeezing his suit into tatters. Black mane grew wildly all over his body, and thick horns grew and bulged from both sides of his temples.

"Animal Devil Fruit·Mighty Bull."

Although his Devil Fruit was a powerful bull, he was not reckless and had already pressed the emergency contact button at the moment the thick fog rose. It wouldn't take long...CP members from the other two branches would come to the rescue.

"Just hold on!"

The bull-faced man fumbled for his weapon and gave defensive orders to the surrounding team members, but soon... he discovered that the team members who usually fought side by side... did not give him any feedback.

Thick leaden fog billows and spreads.

But the surrounding environment is extremely quiet, and the needle drop can be seen.

In the fog, he could only hear his own breathing.

"This...this is...the Thousand Faced Demon Emperor's method."

Immediately he found the information about the fog from his memory.

Gu Chen

The pitch-black blade had pierced the chest, and the golden electric current traveled throughout the body, paralyzing the tauren's body and making him unable to move.

The bright silver blade passed by, and the bones connecting the head and body were cut off directly by the sharp blade.

All CP4 stationed at the Chambord Islands were killed.

The thick fog gradually dissipated.

Yakumo put all the information of the past few days into the storage scroll, waiting to check it again when he has time.

In the Shampoo Islands, the three CP department strongholds that can be sensed have been completely annihilated.

As Yakumo walked on the street, the fire in his heart dissipated slightly.

The next goal is... to sneak into Marineventor!

Let the caravan members rest in peace.

The last thing in his life is that he doesn't want to drag others down because of himself.

Yakumo killed the pirates with his sword and saved everyone in the caravan. In the next few days, the merchant ship took him to the Shampoo Islands. This was a fair deal.

But those people who died because of him were a debt of gratitude.

Malinfando, Navy Headquarters.

The war that broke out two years ago completely changed the layout of the island. The original huge concave port has completely disappeared and transformed into an oval port.

The square in front of the execution platform extends for several kilometers.

It appears wider than before. According to the Navy's original plan, when Whitebeard dies and the balance among the Four Emperors is broken, the Navy will forcefully enter the new world.

At that time, a brand new headquarters will be built in the new world.

It's a pity...the appearance of the Thousand-Faced Demon King broke the navy's plan, Whitebeard did not die in the war, and the navy became everyone's laughing matter.

There are more than a dozen giant bronze pillars erected in the corners of the square. They are used to hang the bodies of unforgivable people.

The corpses of the caravan members hang here.

Likewise, it is also Yakumo's goal.

Chakra wraps the whole body.

Yakumo approached Marinefando from the bottom of the sea, constantly dodging searchlights high in the sky and interception nets under the sea.

The distance between Marinefando and the Chambord Islands is like a natural chasm, blocking all enemies who try to infiltrate through the sea, unless the infiltrator is a fishman with the ability to breathe under the sea.

Yakumo is creating miracles at this time. First of all, his physical attributes can support long-term underwater sneaking.

Secondly, the surrounding seawater is isolated by chakra, and even becomes a boost for progress under manipulation.

Yakumo's head surfaced.

Taking advantage of the darkness and cover, Yakumo turned over and came to the edge of Marinefando Island. Looking up, he saw the nearly 100-meter-high Navy Headquarters building. The pattern of peace doves could be seen almost everywhere, and the white military flags were fluttering in the wind.

Yakumo took a step forward, sage mode turned on.

Sneaking carefully towards the direction of the sinner's copper pillar, the faint mist spread and became his natural protective color.

Until he finally stepped onto the square, there were four teams of marines patrolling in the surrounding corners.

"Huhuhu."

Yakumo adjusted his breathing, bowed slightly, lowered his center of gravity, carefully observed the surrounding situation, and at the same time tried to find the blind spots of the four patrols.

But soon...he became disappointed.

The four teams moved forward according to the existing route, and with the occasionally swaying searchlights on the high platform, there was almost no blind spot. In other words...he could only force his way through the final stretch.

The footsteps moved silently.

Yakumo moved like a night owl, swimming quickly towards the target on the almost vertical wall, while completely hiding his energy fluctuations.

The Bronze Pillar of the Sinner is still 500 meters away.

But...he was still exposed after all.

The bright searchlight struck, and Yakumo didn't even have time to take a detour to avoid it, and was completely exposed to the sight of the navy on duty.

The next second, the ringing sounded loudly.

"Someone has sneaked in!!"

Countless fireworks exploded in mid-air.

Yakumo's legs exploded, and a large crater about two meters in diameter suddenly appeared on the wall under his feet, rushing towards the sinner's copper pillar like an arrowhead.

Thick leaden fog surged and spread, covering everything.

In the second second, Yakumo arrived under the copper pillar.

When looking at it from a distance, Yakumo didn't think how tall these copper pillars were, but when he actually stood in front of him, he realized that the height of these copper pillars was about ten meters, which was extremely tall.

Those corpses that were somewhat dry under the sunlight occasionally made a few evil sounds under the influence of the wind.

Against the backdrop of the night, it looked particularly terrifying.

The surface of the copper pillar is engraved with a list of various crimes.

The word that appears most often is...Dragon people.

Those codes that represent rules seem to have been established to highlight the privileges of the Celestial Dragons, and stipulate the supreme status and privileges of the Celestial Dragons.

Yakumo created a shadow clone and quickly restrained the body.

Stuff them all into the storage scroll.

Ten seconds later, Yakumo took back his shadow clone.

"Ice Age!!"

The severe cold came in an instant.

Yakumo moved quickly in the square to avoid Aokiji's attack, and countless disheveled marines broke into the fog carrying long swords or firearms.

"The enemy is the Thousand-Faced Demon Emperor, and those below the rank of lieutenant general are not allowed to participate in the battle!"

In mid-air, Qing Zhi breathed out white cold air and ordered to the navy running on the platform.

"Ten times gravity!"

ps: Please give me a monthly ticket.
