Nico Robin was feeling rather headache-inducing.
Uehara Naraku and Hoshigaki Kisa really were two newcors.
Although Nico Robin was nominally their superior in Baroque Works, she couldn’t help but toil to prepare the little ship and supplies for their sea journey. She also had to handle the follow-up for Baroque Works at Whiskey Peak.
Once everything was taken care of, Nico Robin glanced at the direction indicated by the log pose on her wrist, frowned, and said, "According to the magnetic storage of the log pose, we should head to Drum Kingdom first, then pass by nearby Little Garden..."
"Log pose?"
A completely clueless Hoshigaki Kisa.
Uehara Naraku looked at Kisa and chuckled softly, "Ha, we don’t need things like that. We just follow the guidance of destiny..."
"..."
Nico Robin was a bit speechless.
Why does the world have people like Uehara Naraku, who are either superstitious or have a chuunibyou syndro? What does he an by ’just follow the guidance of destiny’!
And the key point is, Hoshigaki Kisa actually nodded seriously.
Uehara Naraku wasn’t lying, though, because his Destiny Skills were still active.
Destiny: Able to see the location of everyone within a 100 km radius, including those using the Invisibility Ability, for 6 seconds; after activating the Destiny Skills, you can teleport to any location within a 50 km radius using Power of Space-Ti after 1.5 seconds.
The range and duration of the Destiny Skills are related to the usage coefficient of Observation Haki. When activated, it consus a minimum of 100 Observation Haki points, with no cooldown ti.
This skill is still terrifying...
It fully proves that a cheater will never be limited by the world.
"Drum Kingdom is a mber country of the World Governnt, right?"
Uehara Naraku jumped lightly onto the ship and spoke softly, "Since we’re passing through Drum Kingdom, let’s start by spreading the terror of our Baroque Works there first!"
Almost forgot.
Drum Kingdom also has a Devil Fruit.
Especially the King of Drum Island, Wapol, seems to have a Munch-Munch Fruit that can devour Fruit Ability Users and acquire their abilities.
This fruit is most suitable for Kakuzu.
After saying that, Uehara Naraku raised his finger and instructed, "Kakuzu-senpai, et us on Drum Island and harvest the heart of the first Devil Fruit Ability User!"
Once everything was arranged.
Nico Robin and Hoshigaki Kisa boarded the small ship.
Kisa clasped his hands, perford Hand Seals, and summoned a group of sharks that surrounded their little ship in a wobbly departure from Alabasta.
The sharks looked like they wanted to eat soone...
It was quite scary.
Uehara Naraku casually modified the system cheat, glanced at the system’s hidden mission, and yawned out of boredom. Why does he, soone who can fly, have to sail on a ship!
Hidden Mission: Navigate the Grand Line for a full hundred days (1/100), mission incomplete, reward unknown.
anwhile.
At the port city of Alabasta.
Kakuzu and Hidan received Uehara Naraku’s ssage while their work was already open. They casually killed a small pirate worth seven million Belly.
"Do we have to go to this Drum Island or whatever?"
Kakuzu’s voice was slightly displeased as he looked down at the thick stack of bounty orders in his hand, his voice a bit sullen, "I think I just saw one of those guys worth nine million in this city!"
To be honest.
This world is quite comfortable.
Compared to the past, where he had to search for targets, Kakuzu found that as long as he put in a bit of effort, he could definitely find pirates to cash in for money, even if he couldn’t rember them.
As long as he went to a bustling tavern, he could definitely encounter pirates. So even arrogantly announce their bounty!
Isn’t this just giving money to Kakuzu?
Kakuzu genuinely felt that this world was perfect for him, with so many stupid and valuable people around!
"Forget it."
Kakuzu thought for a long ti, slowly put away the bounty orders in his hand, sighed, and said, "Uehara’s orders are really hard to refuse... one heart is worth our trip anyway."
"..."
Hidan, carrying his scythe, gently covered his nose, "Speaking of which, how do we get to that kingdom or whatever?"
"Drum Kingdom."
Kakuzu frowned and instructed in a deep voice, "Let’s go, we’ll go exchange the bounty first, then buy a ship and sail over."
"Why not just rob a ship?"
Hidan spread his hands, chuckling, "It’s so chaotic here, with people plundering everywhere..."
"Idiot."
Kakuzu snorted coldly and explained, "If we carry bounties, how can we go to the Navy Base to exchange for a bounty!"
Kakuzu’s reasoning was correct.
No wonder he’s an old man who survived in the Ninja World for so long; in just a few days, Kakuzu had already figured out most of this world’s faction order.
The Navy is the currency exchange in the Ninja World.
As for those who generously give money, Kakuzu definitely doesn’t want to offend them.
Moreover, Kakuzu’s thoughts were quite expansive: "Humph, once Yakushi Kabuto finds his footing within the Navy, I’ll have him raise the bounties on so of those pirates. That way, we’ll earn even more..."
To be honest, Kakuzu’s idea wasn’t half bad.
However, Yakushi Kabuto was far from finding his footing.
Yesterday, Yakushi Kabuto passed the Navy’s physical examination, becoming a rookie doing odd jobs around the Navy Base, mainly tasked with mopping the floor.
Just as Yakushi Kabuto joined the Navy on the first night, the Navy Base was attacked, causing severe damage to this already weak base.
Yakushi Kabuto escaped unscathed.
Due to the shortage of personnel at the Navy Base, Yakushi Kabuto took up a gun, becoming a Third-Class Soldier in the ranks. If his transition is any slower, the base might get attacked again.
Not fully understanding the Navy yet, Yakushi Kabuto plans to test the strength of this base’s Colonel and then use the Sharingan to control him for a direct promotion.
Besides joining Portgas D. Ace’s Black Spade Pirates as ordered, Uchiha Sasuke is still rushing along with Black Zetsu, everyone has a promising future.
anwhile.
The Grand Line truly lives up to its reputation.
The weather on this ocean is even harsher than imagined, as Nico Robin embarked with Uehara Naraku and Hoshigaki Kisa, only to encounter a gust of wind carrying dark clouds.
Robin pressed her hat down, letting the wind whip her hair, as she watched the two stable figures on the deck, quietly saying: "Mr. Naraku, since there is no Navigator on board proficient in weather, it seems our timing for departure is not great..."
The presence of a Navigator is crucial.
Especially on the Grand Line with its extrely harsh weather.
An exceptional Navigator can avert nurous losses, steering the ship away from so of the ocean’s dangers; unfortunately, Navigators are a scarce commodity.
"It doesn’t matter."
Uehara Naraku shook his head.
The next mont, Uehara Naraku’s figure suddenly flew off the ship!
A skeletal fra of Susanoo erged from Uehara’s body, and in the blink of an eye, the Complete Form of Susanoo enveloped his body. Susanoo swiftly withdrew the Ninja Blade in its hand, and a massive blue Sword Qi suddenly cleaved toward the sky!
The dark clouds in the sky were split open with a single stroke.
The raging winds were directly dispersed by the blue Sword Qi.
Uehara Naraku calmly dismissed Susanoo and landed back on the ship, as sunlight poured down, bathing his body.
In the midst of Nico Robin’s utterly shocked and incredulous gaze, Uehara Naraku extended his palm, gazing at the sunlight within it.
"Let’s keep going... I am the Navigator."
"..."
Nico Robin regained her composure, slowly nodding, expressing her complete agreent with Uehara Naraku’s words.
This is a ghost of a Navigator!
Is Uehara Naraku planning to take advantage of this opportunity to threaten her for sothing? Yet, she is alone and has nothing to offer.
On this ocean, there are many powerful organizations; Baroque Works and Crocodile cannot be considered among the top tier.
Uehara Naraku’s goal is likely similar to Crocodile’s, aiming for the weapon Pluto, wanting to be a hunter catching crocodiles from the shadows...
Throughout the journey, Nico Robin was pondering.
Robin occasionally glanced at Uehara Naraku and Hoshigaki Kisa, who were composed compared to other pirates on the sea. Neither of them drank alcohol.
Robin deliberately procured alcohol for them during the journey, but whether it was Uehara Naraku or Hoshigaki Kisa, they only held a glass of iced juice.
Two very self-disciplined individuals.
They do not resemble pirates at all.
When they reached the shores of the Drum Kingdom.
Uehara Naraku slowly stretched his body, taking a cannonball from the box on the ship, bouncing it with his palm.
"Let’s give this country a greeting first!"
"..."
Robin looked at Uehara Naraku in astonishnt.
How exactly will he greet them? Is he going to throw a cannonball directly? If it’s thrown from here, it’ll probably only go a few hundred ters?
Robin casually watched Uehara Naraku, curious about how he would greet this country.
The next mont, under Robin’s surprised gaze, Uehara Naraku abruptly raised his palm, hurling the cannonball forcefully!
The cannonball drew a high arc in the air, landed on the castle atop the Drum Kingdom’s mountain, and directly blew off a corner of the castle!
"Greetings given, let’s go!"
Uehara Naraku leaped onto Drum Island.
Uehara’s face gradually turned cold, as if he were a being without emotion: "It’s rely a World Governnt mber country, they probably wouldn’t dare resist our Baroque Works, right?"
After speaking, Uehara Naraku clenched his fist, coldly continuing: "Our Baroque Works even dares to kill Heavenly Celestial Dragons!"
"..."
Nico Robin couldn’t help but have a subtle expression.
Hmm, underestimated...
This guy Uehara is worse than a pirate.
