“Vice Captain?”
Hearing this from Hancock, even Gen couldn’t help but be a bit dumbfounded.
Finally seeing Gen’s dumbfounded look, the corners of Hancock’s mouth curled up slightly.
“If we don’t do this, I won’t be able to convince my citizens.”
“After all, no man has set foot in our country for hundreds of years.
Banning men is our country’s centuries-old rule.”
“For your sake, I have already broken this centuries-old rule.
Are you unwilling to agree to even this small condition?”
“Uh…
fine.”
Seeing Hancock’s aggressive gaze, looking as if she would fight him to the bitter end if he didn’t agree, Gen could only helplessly accept these conditions.
“Then it’s a deal!”
Hancock immediately finalized the matter, as if afraid Gen would back out.
“Sandersonia!”
Sandersonia also understood her sister’s meaning and immediately went to ring the bell.
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!!
The bell rang out.
“This bell…
it’s the sound of Lady Snake Princess summoning the citizens!”
“Quick!
Go gather in front of Kuja City!
Lady Snake Princess has an announcement to make!”
“Hurry, hurry!
Let’s go see what’s going on.”
Soon, all the citizens gathered below the castle of Kuja City.
The Uchiha Clan was also notified to come here.
The female warriors of Amazon Lily couldn’t help but whisper among themselves upon seeing the Uchiha Clan.
“Is that the Uchiha Clan?”
“And those are men?”
“I heard they even defeated the Gorgon Sisters.”
“These men are too powerful…”
Many had witnessed the three men sent by the Uchiha Clan defeat the three strongest women of Amazon Lily, so they were extremely curious about the Uchiha Clan.
A short while later, the Pirate Empress Boa Hancock appeared on the platform in front of the castle.
“Lady Snake Princess has come out!”
“Lady Marigold and Lady Sandersonia!”
“That man is actually there too!”
…
“My fellow citizens!
I now announce a highly important piece of news to everyone!”
“From this day forth, we, Amazon Lily, shall form an alliance with the Uchiha Clan!
From now on, we will advance and retreat together, watching over and helping each other!”
“The status of the Uchiha Clan members will be equal to that of our citizens.
Their clan will send elites to join the Kuja Warriors, contributing to the defense of our territory.”
“The three warriors who fought on stage today will join the Kuja Pirates.”
“Uchiha Genen will become the Vice Captain of the Kuja Pirates!”
“…”
Boom!!!
Below, the crowd instantly erupted in an uproar.
Although they knew the Empress had something important to announce, they never expected it to be such a major event, and everyone couldn’t help but discuss it animatedly.
“I know this might be hard for everyone to accept at first.
It goes against the rules our Amazon Lily has kept for hundreds of years.
But rules are dead, while people are alive.
The World Government has already developed technology to safely cross the Calm Belt, and our Amazon Lily is no longer a safe haven.”
“The World Government and the Navy have never given up their ambition to destroy our Amazon Lily.
There’s no telling when they might tear up the agreement.
Therefore, we must find trustworthy and reliable allies to protect our country together.”
“With the addition of the Uchiha Clan, our Amazon Lily will fear no power!”
“No force shall look down on us!!!”
“Ohhhhhhhh!!”
“Lady Snake Princess is wise!!”
“Lord Gen is mighty!!”
…
The numerous female warriors of Amazon Lily all cheered, and the members of the Uchiha Clan felt a wave of excitement in their hearts.
They had abandoned everything and left their homeland to come to this strange world.
No matter how strong-willed they were, their hearts had still been filled with anxiety and unease.
“To celebrate our alliance!
A nationwide banquet for three days!!”
“Ohhhhh!!!”
Hearing about the banquet, the female warriors became even more enthusiastic, while the members of the Uchiha Clan were somewhat dazed.
They had never seen such a grand spectacle as a Village-wide banquet.
At the Empress’s command, everyone on Amazon Lily began to mobilize, and delicious dishes were laid out on the tables.
Many young girls of Amazon Lily danced bewitching dances, and even more girls clung to the men of the Uchiha Clan, asking this and that like curious babies, occasionally even reaching out to touch them.
Some girls even took the initiative to confess their feelings to the young men of the clan, making many Uchiha men flush red with embarrassment.
Having grown up in their previous environment, when had they ever seen such a scene?
[Ding!
Main Quest: Find a new territory for the clan.]
[Completed!]
[Reward Obtained: Single Tomoe Sharingan]
The system prompt sounded in Gen’s mind.
Hearing this system prompt, Gen smiled and didn’t care.
He already had the Mangekyo, so what use was a One-Tomoe?
If he really had to rely solely on the system and a One-Tomoe, how would that be any different from only starting a counterattack after reaching adulthood?
A sixteen-year-old with a Single Tomoe Sharingan would barely count as an elite in the Uchiha Clan, but in essence, it was no different from being a useless nobody.
He only hoped this system wouldn’t stupidly degrade his Mangekyo Sharingan into a Single Tomoe Sharingan.
[Ding!
Detected that the host has already awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan!
The Single Tomoe Sharingan will be converted into Mangekyo Sharingan Ocular Power.]
Suddenly!
Gen felt a surge of Ocular Power inject into his eyes, causing his maximum Ocular Power to increase significantly.
“This is…”
He didn’t expect to get such a harvest.
The stronger the Ocular Power, the stronger the Dōjutsu cast.
Especially for owners of the Mangekyo Sharingan, the Mangekyo Sharingan can use ‘Susanoo’, which is the ultimate power dwelling in the Mangekyo Sharingan.
It is an ultimate Dōjutsu that integrates offense and defense, materializing a huge amount of Chakra to form a colossal god of war for battle.
‘Susanoo’ will grow in stages (four stages in total) as the user’s Ocular Power strengthens, and the stronger the Ocular Power, the more powerful ‘Susanoo’ will become.
Ocular Power grows very slowly.
Although the increase this time wasn’t much, it was still a pleasant little surprise.
If it continued to grow like this, his gains would definitely increase more and more.
It seemed his seemingly useless system wasn’t entirely useless after all; it could still be of some help to him.
The corners of Gen’s mouth couldn’t help but curl up slightly.
