Sarutobi Hiruzen's brow furrowed slightly.
"Lord Tobirama, Kaido's strength is truly not to be underestimated, and if the few of us cannot resolve this quickly, I'm afraid we will be drawn into a prolonged struggle."
Senju Tobirama's gaze carried a trace of confidence.
"No matter how strong Kaido is, he is still just one man, and can we really not bring him down with all of us working together?"
"Moreover, we still have Elder Brother as our final trump card, and if Kaido truly proves too strong for us to handle, then Elder Brother will step in."
Orochimaru licked his lips, his eyes flickering with excited light.
"A direct decapitation strike, how delightful, just how strong is Kaido's power?"
Senju Tobirama warned him.
"Orochimaru, don't think about pulling any sches, our goal is to swiftly eliminate Kaido and Orochimaru, not to let you study their power."
Orochimaru shrugged, his voice raspy.
"Relax, I will act according to the plan."
Senju Hashirama shook his head, his tone carrying a hint of helplessness.
"Tobirama, although your plan is simple, the risks are also considerable, and Kaido is after all one of the Four Emperors, so his subordinates are likely no weaklings either."
Senju Tobirama replied confidently.
"Elder Brother, all of us are the elite among elites, and we will move swiftly, giving them no ti to react, and as long as we land the first decisive blow, the situation in Wano Country will reverse in an instant."
He paused.
"Moreover, we still have the Flying Thunder God Technique, so even if things go wrong, we can withdraw quickly."
Senju Hashirama sighed and ultimately nodded.
"Very well, since you are all this confident, then let us proceed according to the plan, but Tobirama, you must be careful."
"Relax, I am nothing like that incompetent Kozuki Oden."
Senju Tobirama once again turned his gaze toward the map and tapped lightly with his finger on the position of the Flower Capital.
"Once we take down Orochimaru and Kaido, we imdiately announce the new governing order and soothe the emotions of the common people."
Sarutobi Hiruzen considered this.
"Lord Tobirama, should we prepare so supplies in advance for appeasing the common people?"
Senju Tobirama nodded, his tone carrying a trace of approval.
"Correct, Roy will handle that for us, and once we control the Flower Capital, we imdiately distribute the supplies to the common people, which will quickly win their support."
Senju Hashirama was silent for a mont.
"In that case, let us proceed according to the plan, but Tobirama, you must always rember that our goal is not only conquest, but also to bring a new order to the people of Wano Country."
Outside the ship's cabin, the sea wind howled and waves beat against the hull, as if playing a prelude to the coming storm.
The group of Senju Hashirama stood on the deck, their gazes fixed on the distant horizon.
The outline of Wano Country was faintly visible.
"Let us depart." Senju Tobirama said quietly.
"The future of Wano Country will be rewritten by us."
The ship slowly sailed in the direction of Wano Country, leaving a long trail of ripples across the sea's surface.
In the Ninja World, within a forest outside the Village Hidden in the Leaves, Uchiha Sasuke stood beneath a towering tree, holding an ancient scroll in his hand.
His gaze carried a trace of resolve, and he murmured to himself.
'Eight Gates technique, perhaps this is the key to breaking through my bottleneck.'
He opened the chat group and transmitted the scroll's contents to Roy through the system.
A mont later, Roy's reply ca through.
"Sasuke, you move pretty fast, and the Eight Gates technique is indeed a good find."
At this mont a flash of pleasant surprise crossed Roy's eyes.
'In his view, aside from Six Paths-level power, this was the only unique ninjutsu capable of capturing his interest.'
'The imnse potential it contained, once fully excavated, was enough to unleash astonishing force.'
Roy asked through the chat group.
"Tell , Sasuke, what do you want in exchange?"
Uchiha Sasuke frowned slightly.
"There haven't been many missions in the Leaf Village lately and I feel I've hit a bottleneck where my strength can no longer improve, so I want to go to the One Piece world and grow stronger there."
For Sasuke, who pursued power above all else, stagnation in strength was sothing he could not tolerate, and he longed to seek an opportunity for a breakthrough in a wider world.
After hearing this, Roy fell into a brief silence.
Various thoughts flashed rapidly through his mind, and suddenly he recalled that Senju Hashirama's group was preparing to attack Wano Country, where an intense battle was about to unfold with forces from all sides converging and powerful fighters gathering.
'Sending Sasuke over there would actually work out.'
With that thought, the corners of Roy's mouth curved upward into a mysterious smile as he began telling Sasuke the plan.
"What, several Hokage are going to attack Wano Country?"
Sasuke's eyes went wide, his face written over with shock and confusion, as he never could have imagined hearing such news from Roy's mouth.
"What in the world has happened to this world?"
But very quickly, fighting spirit ignited in Sasuke's eyes, and he realized that powerful fighters would surely clash there, making it without question an excellent opportunity for tempering himself in his quest to break through.
As long as he could survive this battle and absorb the experience from it, he believed his strength would surely achieve a qualitative leap.
"Mr. Roy, please let go."
Several days later, Senju Hashirama's group had already approached the waters of Wano Country.
Senju Hashirama stood at the ship's bow, his gaze fixed on the faintly visible outline of Wano Country in the distance, his eyes flickering with excited light.
"We're finally almost there." Senju Hashirama murmured, his tone carrying a trace of anticipation.
'Kaido, just how strong is the power of one of the Four Emperors?'
His fists clenched slightly as Chakra surged within him, as if he could not wait to fight Kaido.
Senju Tobirama stood beside him.
"Elder Brother, rember our plan and do not act rashly."
Senju Hashirama laughed and patted Senju Tobirama on the shoulder.
"Relax, I know what matters, but if Kaido truly proves strong enough that you cannot handle him, then leave him to ."
Senju Tobirama nodded.
"A re Four Emperor is not enough to leave us at a loss."
Just as the group was in discussion, suddenly the space at the ship's bow twisted and a dark-red vortex appeared from thin air.
The vortex radiated powerful fluctuations of energy, and even the sea wind seed to pause for an instant.
"This is Roy's spatial ability?" Senju Tobirama frowned, his gaze carrying a trace of wariness.
The vortex gradually expanded and finally transford into a gateway.
Roy's figure slowly erged from the gateway, with a black-haired young man following close behind him, none other than Uchiha Sasuke.
"Roy?" Senju Hashirama was montarily stunned, then broke into a smile.
"Why did you co, and you brought soone with you? Oh, it's that young man from before."
His gaze settled on Uchiha Sasuke, a trace of familiarity crossing his eyes.
He recalled that Roy had once brought him to et this young man from the Uchiha clan.
