Crossover Anime: From DanMachi to Becoming a Garbage Scavenging Master

In the council hall of the Dragon Palace, everyone had already arrived.

Zheng Tianxing took out his phone, sent a message to Heita saying "Prepare to return home" and then quickly put it away. He looked around and took in the expressions of everyone present.

At this moment, Queen Otohime, Prince Sharhoshi, and the kingdom's soldier captain Jinpei were already fully prepared and solemn, as if they could set off immediately at a moment's notice.

Goodwill Ambassador Xia Li and Maid Shop veteran Yi Xi Li stood quietly to the side, even deliberately keeping their breathing soft, not daring to break the solemn atmosphere.

On the other side, Rayleigh, Shakky, and Hancock stood together, also looking ready to set off at any moment.

However, the addition of this group was not Rayleigh and Shakky's plan, but rather Hancock's initiative.

"I want to train with Nanami-neechan!"

Her tone wasn't harsh, but it was unusually firm.

Hancock has been unable to let go of the fact that Nanami will be gone for a long time ever since she learned of it. Unwilling to lose contact with her, she decided to go with her herself, or rather, to treat this journey as a form of spiritual practice.

Rayleigh and Shakky were somewhat worried about this. After discussing it privately, they approached Skywalker beforehand to communicate, and ultimately obtained permission to accompany him.

As for her two younger sisters, they have probably already returned to their original place, Amazon Lily in the Calm Belt.

Just then, several figures that should have appeared much earlier appeared on the other side of the hall.

Big Bear, Ginny, and Tiger silently entered the hall, all looking rather disheveled. Their clothes were torn, and their breathing was unsteady, clearly indicating that they had recently been in a significant conflict.

Tianxing frowned and asked, "What happened to you?"

His words carried a hint of inquiry, but his tone was closer to bewilderment than question.

After a year of training, Tiger's strength is quite impressive. At his current level, he could easily hold his own against a typical Navy Vice Admiral, let alone escape unscathed.

Tianxing's mind raced through memories—in the original timeline, Tiger's crisis occurred when he was escorting a little girl back to her hometown, and was ambushed by the navy after being reported by the villagers.

But that was in the past.

With Tiger in his current form, plus his counterpart Big Bear, this level of threat should not be a cause for concern.

As for the turmoil in the Holy Land—

Although the event caused quite a stir, the World Government had already forcibly suppressed the news. Only after Tiger publicly announced the formation of the Solar Adventure Team did the World Government have no choice but to step in and place all the blame for the incident on him.

Ultimately, in the eyes of the Celestial Dragons, this matter itself wasn't that serious.

Those who died were merely insignificant slaves and CP guards. In their eyes, these people were nothing more than a harvest of leeks, which would soon grow back.

As long as the foundation of the World Government has not been shaken and its rule itself has not been threatened, this loss is still within a controllable range, and probably not much effort will be devoted to investigating it.

What's more, Tiger also has Kuma by his side. This guy, whose fighting strength is basically complete and who will one day join the ranks of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, is standing right next to him.

Could something have gone wrong? It can't be that we just had bad luck and ran into a naval admiral.

"At the time, we were escorting a girl named Clara back to her hometown."

Tiger began to explain, his tone seemingly calm, but his expression betrayed an underlying frustration and irritability, clearly indicating that his journey had not been easy.

"That child suffered severe psychological trauma and was initially almost afraid to communicate with others."

"However, with our care and guidance along the way, her condition has gradually improved. At the beginning, she would fall into fear and apologize repeatedly because of the slightest noise, but later she gradually became willing to take the initiative to speak and try to express her true feelings. It can be said that she has gradually regained some of the liveliness and vitality that a child should have."

"After we sent the child back to the village, the villagers were outwardly hospitable and accepted the child, but behind our backs they betrayed us to the navy. They probably wanted to distance themselves from us and curry favor with the navy."

"However, we had already considered this possibility. After all, Klar was born a slave, so it's not surprising that the villagers were somewhat fearful or even hostile after not seeing her for so long. Although their betrayal of us was excessive, it was still within our expectations."

He paused slightly at this point, looking somewhat troubled by the unexpected events that followed.

"And then what?"

Tianxing pressed on calmly.

Tiger took a deep breath, composed himself, and continued, "Soon we were subjected to a large-scale siege by the Navy, led by a rear admiral named Stromberry, a man with a long, narrow skull and almost no expression."

"He's quite strong, and his attacks are very fierce. If it were me before the special training, I would probably be at a disadvantage in a head-on confrontation, but now I can handle it. We managed to repel him without revealing Big Bear."

He changed the subject, his voice becoming even lower.

"But the problem was never with him. Just when we had shaken off the pursuit and hadn't even had a chance to rest, the real formidable opponent appeared."

He raised his head, his gaze dark and somber.

"Vice Admiral Kizaru, Borsalino, user of the Glint-Glint Fruit, he's here."

"This guy is so fast that it's impossible to catch, and his domineering aura is extremely strong. Every time he appears, he is accompanied by a devastating attack. Even though Big Bear and I joined forces to fight him, we were still forced to retreat step by step—even if we tried our best, we could only barely hold on."

As he said this, his voice unconsciously lowered.

"During a counterattack, I don't know when I exposed an opening, and he pierced my chest from the front, severely damaging my heart, and then I collapsed."

"Kizaru seemed to be targeting me. After confirming that I had fallen, he stopped fighting, flew into the air, took out a Den Den Mushi to take some pictures, and then left."

Recalling that moment of confrontation, Tiger still felt a bead of cold sweat on his forehead, clearly indicating that the oppressive feeling from that battle had not completely dissipated.

"If you hadn't given me a bottle of magical hot floating milk a long time ago, I probably would have died there."

Tianxing understood somewhat; the little preparation he had hastily made had finally come in handy. But this might not necessarily be a bad thing—

Having survived this ordeal, Tiger should be more cautious in his actions, and it's a good time for him to lie low and temporarily leave the pirate world with us.

"The outcome is not bad. Big Bear and Ginny weren't going to participate in this visit anyway, so the Sun Adventurer Group can just go underground and develop slowly with the help of the Revolutionary Army."

After speaking, Tianxing turned slightly to the side and led the Denial Princess, who had been standing to the side, to the front. He then said to Da Xiong and Ginny, "You have met this Denial Princess before. She has always been very interested in your ideas and plans to stay and travel with you for a while to gain a deeper understanding of how the Revolutionary Army operates."

Tengoku continued, "Her goal is to restore Wano Country to what a normal country should be like."

"She is actually quite experienced in governance. Whether it is sorting out the power structure, rebuilding order, or allocating resources, she has a whole set of mature methods that may come in handy in the areas you have already liberated."

Ginny's eyes lit up: "Then come work for me! The Eastern Army is in dire need of someone like you!"

After arranging all the matters before his departure, Zheng Tianxing looked at Neptune one last time, nodded slightly, and said goodbye.

The next moment, the ocean fire was unleashed once more, and the familiar whale made of pure water quietly appeared.

The first visitors from the pirate world, along with the members of the Prometheus Familia, entered one by one under the guidance of Tianxing, their figures quickly swallowed by the water curtain.

The whale's large mouth slowly closed, followed by a deep, low moan that briefly echoed through the hall.

Its body sank gently and disappeared into the void, vanishing without a trace in an instant, leaving only silence within the Dragon Palace City.
