The third generation Hokage sent Danzo to jail at the beginning

And, that's exactly what that stupid son would say.

"How could I abandon my own son!" Whitebeard laughed loudly, his voice like thunder: "Ninja, go back!"

"..."

Uchiha Itachi stood still upon hearing this, and his three-blade windmill-shaped Mangekyō Sharingan began to change and rotate. One of his eyes gradually deformed and twisted, finally forming a new form consisting of four blade-like patterns cross-connected.

Don't be a god!

"If you forcefully attack the Marine Headquarters and rescue Ace, your other children might die. Ace wouldn't want such a sacrifice, would he? That's also the purpose of entrusting me with this."

While Uchiha Itachi continued to persuade him, Kotoamatsukami quietly took action.

There was no need to try ordinary Mangekyō illusions, as the opponent was the strongest fighter in this world. Uchiha Itachi confirmed this.

"That's why I say he's my stupid son. If Ace were standing here, he'd be willing to sacrifice his life to save his brother!"

Hearing what Whitebeard said, the crew cheered, and it was obvious that his words touched everyone's heart. Here, everyone is a "family hero" in the pirate world. For their family, they are willing to give everything.

Whitebeard's smile was still as heroic as ever: "This is the Whitebeard Pirates! I am Whitebeard!"

But Whitebeard's eyes were no longer as firm as they were at the beginning, and his inner worry about the other children was infinitely magnified.

Kotoamatsukami worked, thank you Shisui. Uchiha Itachi confirmed this.

The reason why Kotoamatsukami was used was because when Uchiha saw this giant who was known as the strongest man in the world for the first time, he immediately judged that this was a man with a will as strong as steel, and could not be persuaded by conventional means.

It seemed like, just as the Third Hokage had said, Mission Objective One was nearly impossible to accomplish. But as a ninja possessing the Will of Fire, how could he not give it a try?

On the other hand, the second mission objective is to prevent Whitebeard's death, rather than simply protecting the life of his employer, Ace. This is also not something that can be accomplished easily.

According to the information provided by the Third Hokage, if Whitebeard led the team to fight against the navy with all their strength, it would be difficult for Uchiha Itachi to stop Whitebeard as his employer required, or he would die as he had already planned to end his life.

Going directly to the Navy prison to get Ace out was a fantasy and impossible task. Not to mention the issue of combat effectiveness, the employer himself couldn't even clearly explain the specific location of his imprisonment.

On the other hand, the Whitebeard Pirates were arguably the world's most famous warlords, but their navy was several times stronger, with five members on the same level of combat power as Whitebeard himself. Furthermore, Whitebeard was old, frail, and seriously ill, so it was practically impossible for him to win.

Even if the Konoha ninja Uchiha Itachi was added, the situation would not change much.

Bie Tianshen is a guided illusion that will make the person who is under the spell believe silently that the 'implanted thoughts' are his or her true intentions.

Kotoamatsukami is incredibly powerful, but it's ultimately just a powerful illusion, not a rule-based jutsu that works as soon as it's triggered. Otherwise, Danzo Shimura would have been the Hokage of Konoha, and Itachi Uchiha would have been the leader of Akatsuki.

Uchiha Itachi planned to persuade and guide Whitebeard a few more times in the future, and the balance in the heart of the world's strongest man would be completely tilted.

——Then the mission can be completed successfully.

"Little devil! What have you done to me!"

A roar!

Chapter 24 Uchiha Itachi's Bounty

"Little devil! What have you done to me!"

A violent roar!

The domineering aura shattered the heavens, and this imposing aura, almost materializing, even caused a storm in the surroundings!

The strong wind swept around with Whitebeard as the eye.

The Whitebeard members around were by no means weaklings, and most of them had to try their best to stand firm in the storm.

What followed was a lightning-fast and powerful slash!

The violent air around was instantly frozen like glass.

If you can't dodge... you'll die. Every cell in Itachi Uchiha's body is issuing a warning!

Susanoo!

A red skeleton giant instantly burst out from Uchiha Itachi's body, blocking Whitebeard's slash.

The giant made of chakra cracked and shattered under Whitebeard's slash.

But it also blocked the blade of the supreme sword, Kusugano Kirigari.

"So you're the user of the Mythical Beast Fruit? What an amazing ability."

After Whitebeard missed his attack, he did not continue to attack. At the same time, he waved his hand to stop his sons from going forward to kill Uchiha Itachi.

He regained consciousness from the influence of Kotoamatsukami in a very short time, truly worthy of being the strongest man in the world.

He guessed that Uchiha Itachi was a user of some kind of mythical beast fruit similar to Marco, and the power that guided his mind just now was the effect of the fruit.

Of course, if the other party is really not a fruit ability user, then there is nothing to be particularly surprised about Whitebeard, who has roamed the sea for decades.

The ocean is so vast that new things are born every moment.

He sat back in the captain's throne, stared at Uchiha Itachi with a sharp gaze and said, "Tell me what happened just now, what exactly happened. Otherwise, you may not be able to leave alive."

"I'm a ninja from the Konohagakure, not a fruit user. I came here on Ace's behalf, and the content of his request is..."

Uchiha Itachi told Ace the entire content of his commission and explained why he had used ninjutsu to guide Whitebeard just now.

The other party was still extremely dissatisfied with him and issued a very stern warning to him, but at least he did not continue to attack for Ace's sake.

"Since you have accepted Ace's employment, then stay." Whitebeard decided to tolerate Uchiha Itachi's offense.

At this point, Whitebeard was in dire need of combat power. Unlike his reckless behavior, often shouting "I'm Whitebeard," the elderly Whitebeard possessed a refined mindset.

For the sake of the greater good, he could tolerate Crocodile and Buggy. Naturally, he could also tolerate Uchiha Itachi, a Konoha ninja hired by Ace who shared the same goal.

At the same time, he always emphasized that he was the "best in the world" in order to give his foolish sons more confidence.

Ace, he must be saved. Ace is not only one of his sons, but also the one he chose to be the next leader of the Whitebeard Group.

Uchiha Itachi agreed without hesitation: "Okay, I have always intended to do so. I will do my best to protect your life."

Although he was an elite of Konoha, he obviously lacked a detailed understanding of the situation in this ocean. During his time with the navy, he had already witnessed how complicated this ocean was - and since he was only here to carry out a mission, it was impossible for him to gather all kinds of talents and establish a pirate group.

Therefore, in order to complete the mission, staying in the Whitebeard Pirates is the right choice.

"Hahaha, I'm Whitebeard! Why would I need a ninja's protection?" Whitebeard laughed loudly, his voice like thunder, shaking the deck.

But his sons, except for a few like Marco, obviously could not understand Whitebeard's mentality, and all asked to fight Uchiha Itachi in duel.

In their eyes, Whitebeard was still the unrivaled leader, and saving Ace didn't require the help of this evil ninja who had offended his father. It could even be said that Whitebeard's reputation as the unrivaled leader was more important than saving Ace.

"After all, this ninja is also a guest invited by Ace. Sons, let's put the competition on hold and hold a banquet!" Whitebeard scratched his head in distress, looking at his noisy children, his eyes full of helplessness and pampering.

Under Whitebeard's guidance, the atmosphere suddenly became cheerful.

"Hahaha, then let me fight him first!"

"Ninja. Let's see how much you can drink!"

"Are you from Wano Country too?"

Marco, the captain, approached Uchiha Itachi and made an invitation: "Since Dad has invited us, the battle will wait until after the banquet."

"Thank you." Uchiha Itachi nodded, and was analyzing the second-strongest fighter of the Whitebeard Regiment in his mind - it seemed that this guy was one of the few rational people here, and he had to get in touch with him more often in private.

"Later, I want to be the first to challenge you in a one-on-one duel."

"Ah?" Uchiha Itachi's thoughts were interrupted.

"Hahahaha, let's enjoy some wine first!"

The people here are really...

Free and easy.

Itachi Uchiha was obviously unable to fit in with the style of painting here for a while, and made a two-word evaluation in his mind.

On the other hand, Uchiha Itachi felt a little regretful that Kotoamatsukami was no longer effective. There was no way to quickly clear the level.

He was a ninja, not a warrior, and direct combat was a last resort. Despite possessing a wealth of impressive skills and the Three Sacred Treasures, Itachi Uchiha clearly still had a very 'ninja' mindset.

I can only carry out the second mission. Maybe I will have to fight head-on with the monsters in this world on a large battlefield.

……

Navy Headquarters.

Sengoku sat behind his large desk, clutching a copy of urgent intelligence from the New World branch. His brow furrowed as he scanned the paper, a headache brewing: yet another dangerous fruit-powered user had defected to the Whitebeard Pirates.

The intelligence mentioned that a rear admiral and his entire ship were under mental control. This ability was even more troublesome than Ahe's Wash-Wash Fruit.

"If the strength of this ability is more than this, it might be a big trouble." Zhan Guo rubbed his temples and felt a headache.

I really don't understand why someone with such ability would join a pirate group. Wouldn't it be better to become a righteous marine?

As expected, the plan for the war at the top is necessary. Whitebeard must be eliminated, and the pirates' arrogance must be suppressed!

He used Den Den Mushi to inform his subordinates to issue a bounty on Uchiha Itachi, who was suspected of having the ability of the Psychic Fruit.

The tentative amount is 500 million Baileys.

Zhan Guo was about to feed the materials into the sheep-shaped paper shredder when the office door was kicked open.

"Warring States!"

Who else but Karp?

Garp walked in carelessly, holding a bag of senbei in his hand.

"Zhan Guo, why do you have such a bad face again?" Garp said with a smile while chewing on senbei.

Zhan Guo raised his head and glared at Garp: "Garp, is this the time to joke? I'm so worried because of your family!"

"Hahaha, there's nothing I can do." Karp laughed.

"The one who is going to be executed is your grandson! If you don't want him to die, go and persuade him again!" Zhan Guo slammed the table, his tone angry and helpless.

If Ace could surrender and publicly admit his mistakes as the son of the Pirate King, everyone would be happy. He wouldn't have to bear the pain of killing his old friend's grandson.

"I've been there! It's completely useless, hahaha, he's already a man." Garp continued to laugh heartlessly. "He still has the mood to brag to me!"

"Huh? You're so stubborn, you're truly of evil bloodline. Damn you, Garp, you made a truly wrong decision back then!"

Sengoku, who was so angry, snatched the senbei from Garp's hand and poured them all into his mouth with a crunch.

Chapter 25: Kakashi, the Five Tiger Generals of Konoha

When Uchiha Itachi was serving Konoha in another world.

The 'strongest Hokage' Sandaime Sarutobi Hiruzen has completed his persuasion of his villainous disciple Orochimaru.

Under the guidance of his mentor, the Third Hokage, Orochimaru, the former Konoha rebel and one of the three ninjas, came to his senses, turned over a new leaf, and vowed to fight for Konoha all his life in his next life.

Orochimaru said: I can only blame myself for being too young at that time. I couldn't help but be jealous of my nephew Minato Namikaze's brilliant performance, and I was bewitched by Danzo, so I ended up disappointing the village's expectations of me.

When the news of Orochimaru's return to Konoha spread, let's not talk about whether the Sand Ninja felt like they were eating a fly, but at least Danzo Shimura cursed again while reading the newspaper that day.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand Orochimaru's choice.

Orochimaru has been living in prison for years, with his limited life wasted in a meaningless prison. The barrier of the special prison is very high, and there is almost no hope of breaking it from the inside.

As for the situation in Orochimaru's team outside, the only one who can be called a talented person is Kimimaro - and he is a seriously ill patient, and it is not known whether he is still alive.

There is no hope at all. No one will come to rescue him. You can't expect Pain to lead the Akatsuki organization to attack.

At the same time, Orochimaru's own physical condition was not particularly good. He had been too impulsive in using the unoptimized 'Reincarnation Technique', and the aftereffects were very serious. He had to rely on changing his body to endure. And now...

It's just like watching your health bar slowly shrinking while you're running away from poison, but you're powerless to do anything about it.

Later, when the Third Hokage tried to persuade him to change his ways, Orochimaru wanted to pretend to be submissive, waiting for the tiger to return to the mountain and then do whatever he wanted. Before running away, he mocked the Third Hokage and said, "Teacher, teacher, why are you so soft-hearted again? You are so foolish."

But after several consecutive conversations, the information contained in them refreshed Orochimaru's three views, and he suddenly realized why Sarutobi Hiruzen was in this state.

The universe is vast and time and space are infinite. For a ninja scientist, it is such a novelty and desire.

The contents of the other world, whether it is knowledge or resources, are like a fluffy brush, constantly washing Orochimaru's excitement.

After a struggle between his conscience and his conscience, he wrote a letter of repentance that night.

Snake Pill only regrets that he did not recognize his wise master in the beginning, and was deceived by the treacherous Danzo, and failed to live up to his teacher's expectations. How unbearable!

I only hope that my teacher Sarutobi will let bygones be bygones and accept us again! I kowtow.

Sarutobi Hiruzen simply replied, "No matter when you come back, you will always be my disciple." He also assigned Orochimaru a research task: to develop a mobile phone that could be used for civilian purposes, at least within Konoha.

The Third Hokage wants to speed up the technological life of the citizens of Konoha City!
