Multiverse Mastermind: Starting in Naruto-Chapter 565 - 459: Hold On, Let Me Call and Ask What’s Going On
Yakushi Kabuto’s plan was finalized.
Therefore, this powerful naval fleet did not choose to land at Mary Geoise to transfer and replace warships but instead passed through the Shampodi Archipelago to enter Fishman Island.
While passing through Fishman Island, Yakushi Kabuto, as a former envoy representing the Navy in talks with Hoshigaki Kisame, went to summon this member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
Hoshigaki Kisame did not refuse Yakushi Kabuto’s proposal.
After all, they were allies, both of them were among Uehara Naraku’s longest-serving subordinates, and Yakushi Kabuto could be trusted no matter what.
However, when Hoshigaki Kisame boarded Admiral Akainu’s warship, his gaze fell on Akainu, and he couldn’t help but grin and say, "No wonder you’re a Navy Admiral... possessing such immense power..."
Clearly...
Hoshigaki Kisame also sensed the Four-tailed Chakra within Akainu.
And unlike Yakushi Kabuto, Hoshigaki Kisame received orders from Uehara Naraku, and he also knew that this Admiral of the Navy Headquarters had joined the Akatsuki.
As Hoshigaki Kisame passed by Akainu, he chuckled and said, "Admiral, cherish the divine gift of your power..."
"..."
Akainu suddenly clenched his fist.
Upon hearing Hoshigaki Kisame’s words, Akainu immediately understood that this Seven Warlords of the Sea member was certainly also a member of Akatsuki!
Because only Akatsuki members would refer to Uehara Naraku as God, and only Akatsuki members knew that the Four-tailed Son Goku inside him was forcibly implanted by Uehara Naraku!
Damn, another Akatsuki member? Just how many Akatsuki members are there within the Navy and the Seven Warlords of the Sea!
Meanwhile, on Vice Admiral Tsuru’s warship.
Yakushi Kabuto and Vice Admiral Tsuru were still discussing their plan to recruit another member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the King of Dressrosa, Doflamingo.
Vice Admiral Tsuru leisurely sighed and said, "Because of the former Seven Warlords member Jinbe, there will eventually be a war between Hoshigaki Kisame and the Whitebeard Pirates, so it’s not surprising he accepted the summons... As for that obedient child Doflamingo, I hope he can also be cooperative!"
Due to the journey.
This fleet would temporarily proceed with two members of the Seven Warlords of the Sea to the New World, while the remaining members, like Hawk Eye Mihawk and Amazon Lily’s Hancock, would head to the New World later.
Moreover, whether they accept the summons was still unknown.
At least, Hoshigaki Kisame’s acceptance was a positive start for the Navy.
After all, they were going to face...
Uchiha Sasuke, capable of defeating the Four Emperors!
This naval fleet left Fishman Island and set off towards Dressrosa, startling Doflamingo, who thought they were here to eradicate him, but they had come to recruit him for the New World to confront Uchiha Sasuke!
"Fuffuffuffuffu..."
Doflamingo stood at the port of Dressrosa, and after hearing Vice Admiral Tsuru’s intentions, he couldn’t help but grin and nod in agreement.
"I agree."
Seeing Hoshigaki Kisame and Yakushi Kabuto, his colleagues on the warship, this journey made Doflamingo feel secure.
However, Doflamingo had additional suspicions.
He thought Uchiha Sasuke had betrayed the Akatsuki, so the Akatsuki used the Navy’s strength to hunt down that traitor!
They had little chance to communicate during the journey.
Until they reached the G1 Branch Base in the New World, where Marine Admiral Akainu and Garp led attacks on pirate gangs under Whitebeard’s flag.
Only when the G1 Branch Base was left with just Doflamingo and Hoshigaki Kisame among the Seven Warlords of the Sea did they feel it was safe to communicate. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
"Mr. Kisame, what is going on here?"
"I don’t know either..."
Hoshigaki Kisame grinned, chuckling, "Probably Mr. Kabuto wants to use Sasuke as a stepping stone for promotion..."
"Fuffuffuffuffu... Is that so?"
Doflamingo couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow and smiled, "I’m doubtful that Mr. Sasuke would be willing to do that, though?"
"..."
Hoshigaki Kisame shook his head, lowering his voice, "No one dares defy God’s will, not even Sasuke..."
Though Hoshigaki Kisame wasn’t sure why Yakushi Kabuto would utilize the Navy to conduct a military action against Uchiha Sasuke.
It was without a doubt in favor of Akatsuki.
Whether Uchiha Sasuke wins, increasing his notoriety, or Yakushi Kabuto’s strategy triumphs, allowing him to climb the ranks in the Navy.
Akatsuki had already placed bets on both outcomes.
The entire Navy operation went as Yakushi Kabuto had envisioned, with Akainu leading his warship to destroy three pirate gangs under Whitebeard, sending all of their members to the underwater prison.
This news immediately spread throughout the New World.
Rumors of the war between the Navy and the Whitebeard Pirates spread like wildfire.
Due to the successive victories, the Navy personnel at the old G1 Branch Base regained some semblance of valor. At least this declared their intention to not abandon the latter half of the New World sea.
Meanwhile.
Among the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Hawk Eye Mihawk was the first to accept this summons and head to the New World in advance.
Mihawk wanted to see the swordsmanship of Uchiha Sasuke.
The other Warlords were dragging their feet.
Since the summons from the Navy Headquarters wasn’t mandatory, two Warlords directly refused the call: Kakuzu, who was busy making money, and Amazon Lily’s King Boa Hancock.
For Yakushi Kabuto, it doesn’t really matter.
Yakushi Kabuto wants to gather the ideal forces for besieging Uchiha Sasuke, which include Hawk Eye Mihawk, Vice Admiral Garp, and Admiral Akainu; the rest are just extras.
Whitebeard Pirates.
The atmosphere of the impending battle spread throughout the Whitebeard Sea Region.
The Navy rashly intruded into their sea region and attacked three pirate gangs affiliated with Whitebeard, which undoubtedly caused quite a stir, and the entire Whitebeard Pirates were clamoring to show those Navy guys a lesson.
"Enough with the noise."
Marco rolled his eyes and interrupted all the commotion, saying irritably: "The 2nd Squad has already gone to provide support..."
"..."
The scene suddenly quieted down.
After all, the current captain of the 2nd Squad is Portgas D. Ace, and there’s also that monster Uchiha Sasuke; driving away an Admiral’s unit should be no problem.
Thinking it over carefully...
Uchiha Sasuke seems to have not fought with Akainu yet!
Uchiha Sasuke has fought Kizaru twice and defeated him both times; had a battle with Aokiji, forcing him to stop pursuing; Akainu is the only one yet to be beaten.
"..."
Whitebeard tilted his head slightly, glanced at the large sword beside him, and said in a low voice, "Marco, I think something’s not right, tell Ace and Sasuke to come back first..."
"Dad?"
Marco looked at Whitebeard in surprise.
All this time, the entire Whitebeard Pirates have recognized Uchiha Sasuke’s strength; that guy can even defeat the Four Emperors Kaido, could he really lose to a single Admiral?
After a second of surprise, Marco decided to obediently follow Whitebeard’s order, quickly dialing the Radio Snail of the 2nd Squad.
But...
Uchiha Sasuke and Ace refused Marco’s proposal.
Or rather, they had no choice but to refuse Marco’s proposal.
Because after the 2nd Squad set out, they ran headlong into Vice Admiral Garp’s warship, encountering this Vice Admiral’s interception!
For the 2nd Squad, this was a bit of a problem...
This elderly man, Vice Admiral Garp, who has the title of Navy Hero, has not weakened in strength due to age, instead showing the demeanor of a spirited old man... Moreover, this time, he seems determined to fight the 2nd Squad.
Whitebeard’s Sea Region.
On Vice Admiral Tsuru’s warship.
Yakushi Kabuto leisurely held onto the Radio Snail, arranging their set strategy: "Admiral Sakazuki, Mr. Mihawk, take action to draw out Uchiha Sasuke;
Mr. Doflamingo, Mr. Kisame, once Uchiha Sasuke leaves, immediately attack Portgas D. Ace’s ship, attack according to our scheduled frequency, forcing Uchiha Sasuke to return for backup;
Vice Admiral Garp, prepare to cooperate in intercepting Uchiha Sasuke on his way back for support."
After speaking, Yakushi Kabuto put down the Radio Snail.
Vice Admiral Tsuru stood next to Yakushi Kabuto, nodding satisfactorily; whether it was the broad strategy or the nuanced tactics, Yakushi Kabuto had no issues and even exceeded Vice Admiral Tsuru’s expectations.
Vice Admiral Tsuru slowly clasped her hands together and said: "It seems our plan has succeeded... If Whitebeard Newgate has not acted yet, then victory in this war surely belongs to the Navy."
"Whitebeard has no reason to act."
Yakushi Kabuto adjusted his glasses and said in a low voice: "Our purpose is merely a major victory, and if the Whitebeard Pirates suffer a major defeat, others will swarm like sharks, tearing into him..."
On the battlefield.
Everything proceeded according to Yakushi Kabuto’s simulation.
Uchiha Sasuke’s strength is the strongest, but this time he has formidable opponents to deal with, and he has to be ready to support Ace and the 2nd Squad at any moment, making him a bit overwhelmed.
The real issue is...
Among these enemies, there are colleagues from Akatsuki!
Admiral and Four-tailed Jinchuriki Akainu, Hoshigaki Kisame, Doflamingo; they’re all colleagues, and their presence is certainly not to serve as cannon fodder...
After all, no one informed him before they came!
These guys... could they be sent by Uehara Naraku to eliminate him? Just because he almost killed Kaido last time, going against Uehara Naraku’s intentions? Or because Uehara Naraku thinks he’s being too arrogant in the New World and wants to suppress his arrogance?
It could very well be...
A combination of both.
Just as Uchiha Sasuke was fighting intensely, his ring suddenly flashed, someone was issuing him orders: "Sasuke, Kaido refuses to submit, go to Wano Country and help Uchiha Obito suppress that guy..."
"This guy..."
Under Uchiha Sasuke’s far-sighted vision, among the participants attacking the Whitebeard 2nd Squad this time, a total of five people, three should all be subordinates of Uehara Naraku...
At this time, Uehara Naraku still calls him to work!
Is this bastard even human?
Uchiha Sasuke gritted his teeth and said: "Your subordinates are attacking me right now, how can I go!"
"Is something wrong?"
Uehara Naraku was surprised for a moment, and then softly said: "Hold on, I’ll make a call, and ask what’s going on, I’ve been traveling all this time..."
