“Lady Snake Princess!”
At this moment, Enishida, who was in charge of the internal affairs of Kuja City, walked in.
“How is it?”
“Fortunately, I didn’t fail my mission!
The adults on their side all kept their lips sealed, but I still managed to get information about their clan from the children.”
Hancock’s eyes lit up upon hearing this: “Speak quickly!”
“The general situation of their clan is basically consistent with what that man described, and even if there are discrepancies, they are not major.
It is said that the Village they were in is called Konoha Village, which is a Ninja Village, and they are all Ninjas.”
“Ninja?”
Hancock and her two sisters looked at each other, having never heard of it before.
Suddenly, Elder Nyon popped out of nowhere and said, “Ninjas?
It is said that Wano Country in the New World has Ninjas, and Wano Country is Kaido’s territory.
Could they have smuggled themselves here from Wano Country?”
“No!
They didn’t smuggle themselves here from Wano Country; they came from another world.”
“What?!!”
“Another world?!!”
At this, Hancock, her two sisters, and Elder Nyon all widened their eyes in disbelief.
“Enishida, you’re not joking, are you?”
“How would I dare joke with Lady Snake Princess!
However, the information I obtained is indeed like this, though I do not know whether it is true or not.”
“Ninjas are divided into Genin, Chunin, and Jonin according to their strength levels, and the leader of Konoha Village is called the Hokage.”
“Their Uchiha Clan was specifically responsible for guarding the security of Konoha Village, and Uchiha Genen is the strongest Ninja of the Uchiha Clan.”
“It is said that he is extremely famous throughout the entire Ninja World, known as the’Sword God’.”
“Their eyes are called the Sharingan, which is a Bloodline Limit unique to their Uchiha Clan, a special power passed down through bloodline inheritance.”
“As for the rest, the child’s knowledge is limited, so…”
The Pirate Empress waved her hand.
Knowing this much was enough; it would be sufficient for them to digest for a while.
Elder Nyon muttered, “Other worlds…
do other worlds really exist?”
Hancock narrowed her eyes slightly: “We will know if it’s true as we continue to learn more.”
Today was only the first day.
Moving forward, she could extract more intelligence from them.
If they were truly from another world and not spies from other factions, this was undoubtedly good news for her.
Uchiha Clan Encampment
The Pirate Empress, Boa Hancock, was quite generous, allocating the northeastern area of the Village to the Uchiha Clan as their encampment.
The area was neither large nor small, but it was sufficient for the Uchiha Clan to live in.
For the time being, the Uchiha Clan could consider themselves settled.
“Gen, can you explain to us in detail what the situation is like in this world?”
Uchiha Fugaku asked Gen.
They were truly curious and slightly confused.
They had tried to ask around indirectly, but the people here knew too little, as if they were isolated from the rest of the world.
Gen nodded.
It was indeed time to discuss some things: “This world is vast, and there are many powerful individuals.
Broadly speaking, it is divided into the World Government and the pirates.”
“Pirates?
I heard this Village has something called the Kuja Pirates?
And you became the vice-captain of the Kuja Pirates?”
“Yes, this Village also belongs to a pirate faction, the Kuja Pirates.
The captain is that woman; she bears the title of ‘World’s Most Beautiful Woman’.”
“The world’s most beautiful woman…
indeed, I have never seen such a beautiful woman before.”
“Seeing that woman makes one involuntarily feel drawn to her.
I even suspect I’ve been hit by an illusion technique.”
Almost everyone present was a man, and upon hearing that Boa Hancock was the world’s most beautiful woman, they all expressed their agreement.
“Then you must be careful.
That woman is also a Devil Fruit user.
As long as you feel drawn to her and are caught in her attack, you will turn into stone.”
“That powerful?”
“Of course it’s powerful, even terrifyingly so.
You don’t think she’s weak just because I defeated her, do you?
She hasn’t even shown her true capabilities yet.
If her first attack had been aimed at our clan, ninety percent of our family members might have turned to stone by now.”
The faces of the many men present changed drastically.
Ninety percent of the people turning into stone—that was simply too terrifying.
“The world can be roughly divided into three major factions.
The World Government, as I’ve already mentioned, is the absolute ruler of this world.
The Gorosei are the five people with the highest authority in the world.
You can view them as the Daimyos of the Five Great Nations, or as the Kage of the five great Ninja Villages.”
Someone asked in confusion: “Why?”
In the Ninja World, a Daimyo is a Daimyo, and a Kage is a Kage.
The Daimyo is the national leader, while the Kage seems more like a Minister of Defense.
Only those with great strength can occupy high positions; the strong will not submit to the leadership of the weak.”
Many people couldn’t help but agree upon hearing this; the strong deserve more, after all.
“The second most powerful faction is the Four Emperors.
These are four pirate emperors in the New World who occupy many territories.
Each of them possesses terrifying strength and a powerful force; even the most powerful World Government dares not act rashly against one of the Four Emperors.”
“Finally, there are the Shichibukai.
The Seven Warlords are a special right and qualification granted by the World Government to seven powerful pirates.
They are not a single group and each acts independently.”
“This is mainly because pirates are rampant globally.
To curb the rapid expansion of pirates, the World Government invited seven pirates to join the Shichibukai.”
“After becoming a Warlord, they are no longer wanted by the World Government.
Aside from having to accept mandatory summons from the World Government and paying a portion of their earnings to the government, they can act freely and are completely unhindered by the World Government.
They can openly attack other pirates, which is why they are generally regarded by other pirates as ‘lapdogs’ of the World Government.”
“And the empress of this Amazon Lily, where we are currently located, is one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.”
Everyone could not help but be shocked upon hearing this.
This world was indeed incredibly dangerous.
If one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea possessed such powerful influence and strength, how strong must the Four Emperors and the World Government be?
The restless hearts of the crowd calmed down.
“Everyone, do not worry.
While other factions are strong, our Uchiha Clan is not weak either.
We may not compare to the World Government or the Four Emperors, but we are more than capable of rivaling some of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.”
“And our next goal is to strengthen our Uchiha Clan.”
“How do we strengthen it?”
“The main problems our clan faces right now are actually quite simple: funds, individual strength, and population.”
“I will find a way to resolve the funding issue.
As for individual strength, I will pass down a few sets of Breathing Styles shortly, to serve as the foundation of the Uchiha Clan.”
“Breathing Styles?”
“What is that?”
The crowd couldn’t help but be puzzled.
Gen explained: “It is a method of breathing, a power I learned in the previous world.
It was created by a true genius of peerless talent.
By simply changing one’s breathing, one can continuously strengthen one’s body and internal organs.”
“This allows even ordinary people to unleash power as strong as that of a Ninja.”
“Furthermore, each Breathing Style has a corresponding swordsmanship.”
Clan leader Uchiha Fugaku couldn’t help but think of something upon hearing Gen’s words: “Could it be…”
“Yes, my swordsmanship was learned from that world.
Although the power system of that world is relatively weak—the strongest perhaps only being at the Jonin level—a system is just a system; it does not mean the technical level is weak.”
“Those swordsmanship techniques have been polished by countless geniuses over thousands of years; they are all exquisite and peerless.”
