The encounter between Katakuri and Uchiha Itachi was purely accidental.
Originally, Uchiha Itachi was traveling through BIG·MOM’s sea region when he happened to et the Charlotte siblings, Katakuri and Brulee, who were out on patrol.
The siblings saw Uchiha Itachi as an intruder and wanted to deal with him, but they had no ans against his Reanimation technique and his Undying Body...
Moreover, Uchiha Itachi had a remarkably high combat IQ. Katakuri sensed his own possible defeat and risked his life to save his sister Brulee, continuously protecting her while using a mirror to escape the battlefield.
During their battle...
Uchiha Itachi watched Katakuri, who for the sake of protecting his sister, turned his entire body into a mass of mochi, almost getting completely burned by the Amaterasu flas...
Thus, Uchiha Itachi decided to let him go.
Unexpectedly, there was already a bit of a connection between Katakuri and Akatsuki; two months ago, Black Zetsu had communicated with Katakuri.
Black Zetsu seized on Katakuri’s weakness, understood his true inner thoughts, and believed that Katakuri had the strength to beco an Akatsuki mber, thus enticing him to join Akatsuki. At that ti, Katakuri refused.
Therefore, Black Zetsu did not report this matter.
Today, after Katakuri was defeated by Uchiha Itachi, he wanted to repay the favor to Uchiha Itachi, so he directly plunged into Akatsuki, hoping that when this guy finds out the truth, he’ll obediently stay in Akatsuki!
Akatsuki is not just any loose organization; it’s not easy to join, and even harder to leave...
Unfortunately, Katakuri’s na is already registered with Uehara Naraku, and now it’s too late to leave Akatsuki.
Now, Uchiha Itachi didn’t know what to say.
Uchiha Itachi shook his head, whispering, "Forget it, after all, you’re not one of our core mbers... everything will wait to see how the leader handles you in the future!"
"Akatsuki’s leader..."
Katakuri furrowed his brows, saying, "That person must be very strong, right?"
"I don’t know."
Uchiha Itachi shook his head, then nodded, his tone gradually carrying a touch of complexity: "Humans have limits..."
Uchiha Itachi slowly lifted his head, gazing into the distance, speaking softly against the sea breeze: "But... gods should have no limits."
"A god?"
A spark flashed in Katakuri’s eyes.
The next second, Katakuri forced himself to sit up, casually grabbing sothing to cover his chin, speaking softly: "In the future, if there’s anything I can do, feel free to contact ! I need to return to Totto Land imdiately so Brulee won’t worry..."
"Mm."
Uchiha Itachi nodded, whispering, "I hope you rember one thing, what Akatsuki needs you to do is definitely not that simple..."
Katakuri dismissively waved his hand, responding deeply: "As long as it doesn’t harm my family... you can make do anything..."
"Your logic is flawed..."
Uchiha Itachi sighed, calmly continuing: "If Akatsuki requires you to do sothing and you fail to do it, the people you want to protect will find themselves in a dangerous situation..."
After saying this, Uchiha Itachi added, "Of course, if you succeed, the reward won’t be small either..."
"..."
Katakuri was full of questions.
This Akatsuki organization, does it even co with threats?
The threats from Akatsuki...
No one dares to ignore them.
The Whitebeard Pirates, on the Moby Dick.
Uchiha Sasuke stood on the deck, also speaking similar words, trying hard to persuade Whitebeard: "The guy standing behind Kisa is soone with a very strong sense of revenge... he will ruthlessly take away what his enemies treasure most in their lives."
"Gurararara..."
Upon hearing Uchiha Sasuke’s words, Whitebeard’s face showed a carefree laugh, but his expression gradually beca serious: "Little Sasuke, the person you’re talking about, is the leader of Akatsuki! Did he take your brother away?"
This was Whitebeard’s deduction from various information.
Although Uchiha Sasuke never fully spoke of his family, seemingly out of fear and cowardice, Whitebeard had quietly learned so things from Portgas D. Ace.
For example, his brother Uchiha Itachi had to kill their entire clan with another Akatsuki mber nad Uchiha Obito to protect him...
For example, his brother Uchiha Itachi died at his hands but was resurrected and reused by Akatsuki’s leader...
For example, Uchiha Sasuke greatly missed his brother but knew his brother was under the control of Akatsuki’s leader...
Uchiha Sasuke glanced at Whitebeard, gritted his teeth, and nodded: "Indeed, the person standing behind Kisa is the leader of Akatsuki... definitely not a character we should provoke now!"
"I see..."
Whitebeard slowly held onto his chair to stand, reached out with his hand smilingly ruffling Uchiha Sasuke’s head, looking at his sons on the Moby Dick!
"Everyone!"
Whitebeard’s face showed a boisterous laugh: "Then we’ll take this opportunity to help little Sasuke get his brother back!"
"Hahahaha, of course!"
"That’s right, Sasuke is our admiral!"
"We are family! Sasuke’s brother is our brother too, how can we watch our family roam outside!"
The entire Moby Dick was instantly imrsed in a joyous ocean.
Now the Whitebeard Pirates had left the Whitebeard Sea Region and sailed towards the First Half of the Grand Line, with their destination being Fishman Island.
Jinbe, returning from Fishman Island, looked at this scene and slowly sighed...
Indeed, just as he had guessed, the goal of the Whitebeard Pirates was never Hoshigaki Kisa, but the person standing behind Kisa.
"Idiots!"
Uchiha Sasuke bit his lip, glanced at the people around him, and couldn’t help but clench his fist, a hint of red in his eyes: "I don’t need your help! Now, return imdiately!"
This group of idiots, they just won’t listen!
If they were going to fight just Hoshigaki Kisa, that would be fine. Unexpectedly, their target was Uehara Naraku who was backing Kisa!
Damn it...
Are they getting too full of themselves?
They really think they’re invincible at sea? The truly invincible person on this sea is probably hiding in a corner sipping juice!
"Sasuke brat..."
Whitebeard slowly squatted down, a hearty smile on his face: "We are a family, you know, helping each other is what we should do..."
After speaking, Whitebeard glanced at Sasuke’s reddened eyes and patted his head: "Gurararara... Don’t put on a sour face, go have a glass of juice, kid!"
"Hahahaha..."
"This is the pirate who loves drinking juice the most on the Moby Dick!"
"Almost eighteen and still doesn’t dare to drink alcohol!"
There was a burst of good-natured laughter from below.
They clearly ant no harm, and the entire pirate gang had already accepted Uchiha Sasuke, even though this little guy never called Whitebeard "dad".
A blush flashed across Uchiha Sasuke’s face, he just clenched his fist quietly, this enthusiastic group of idiots made him ashad to react angrily...
This group of pirates...
Really is much more comfortable compared to the world of ninjas.
Among these people.
Marshall D. Teach was also smiling, but beneath his smile, there hid so fierceness and sorrow.
This war, no matter who wins or loses, holds no benefit for him. If Whitebeard manages to deal with the person backing Hoshigaki Kisa and wins, if they retrieve Uchiha Itachi, Teach surely won’t be able to stay on this ship.
If Whitebeard loses, it implies that the Akatsuki organization competing with him for the Dark-Dark Fruit, their power might be too excessively strong...
As the Whitebeard Pirates sailed toward Fishman Island, their destined opponents were also heading toward the established battlefield.
Hundred Beast Pirates.
Two huge warships advanced toward Punk Hazard.
These two ships belong to Hundred Beast Kaido and Jack the Drought, and they brought only over two thousand mbers.
On the flagship of the Hundred Beast Pirates.
Kaido sat on the deck, took a gulp of strong liquor, wiped his mouth corner, and then grumbled: "Nara Shikaku wants us to rush to Punk Hazard, that’s Doflamingo’s domain, best that guy knows his place..."
After speaking, Kaido took another sip of his drink, snorted coldly: "In this war with Whitebeard, I’m going to restore my honor. You kid won against , but don’t drag down and let lose face again!"
"Mmm."
Uzumaki Naruto took a sip of juice and laughed confidently: "Sasuke and I have been sparring since Ninja Academy and I’ve never lost to him!"
After saying this...
Uzumaki Naruto didn’t even blush.
Kaido, who was about to drink, paused, couldn’t help but speak: "Hey, Naruto brat, I heard Uchiha Sasuke is a once-in-a-lifeti genius from your place, and you were always at the bottom!"
"Ah... hahahaha..."
Uzumaki Naruto awkwardly scratched the back of his head, chuckled: "Childhood grades don’t count! After growing up, he’s never won against ..."
"..."
There was a hint of doubt in Kaido’s eyes.
If it weren’t for Uzumaki Naruto demonstrating formidable strength in the previous battle, Kaido really wouldn’t trust Uzumaki Naruto to handle Uchiha Sasuke...
Of course.
Originally, Kaido had so confidence in Uzumaki Naruto.
But after hearing Naruto claiming he never lost, Kaido didn’t feel good, wouldn’t this war head towards a strange direction?
This battle mainly relies solely on him and Uzumaki Naruto.
Kaido himself lost to Whitebeard, and if Uzumaki Naruto loses to Uchiha Sasuke, they would indeed lose face again...
But with the bow on the string, there’s no turning back!
After Akatsuki issued the order, the war couldn’t be stopped!
