Multiverse Mastermind: Starting in Naruto-Chapter 509 - 413: The Trouble Kakuzu Encountered

Early morning.

The sun rose again.

Most of the Navy bases in the East Sea stayed awake through the night.

Because they received emergency orders from Navy Headquarters, all Navy near the Goa Kingdom were to encircle Baroque Works.

All Navy personnel must surround or entangle those Baroque Works members before Vice Admiral Monkey D. Garp arrives in the East Sea.

This was all caused by Uehara Naraku.

Because when Uehara was eating near a Navy Base, he publicly declared that their Baroque Works would rob the hometown of Navy Hero Monkey D. Garp as punishment for the Navy’s attack on them in Log Town.

This was nothing less than a provocation and declaration of war against the Navy.

However, in the view of Marshal Sengoku and Colonel Tina, this was a member highly likely turned traitor leaking information to them, otherwise why not declare responsibility after robbing Vice Admiral Garp’s hometown?

As these Navy personnel advanced toward the Goa Kingdom, a warship full of orange trees quietly docked at the pier of Windmill Village.

Three figures disembarked from the warship.

Nico Robin looked at the peaceful village and frowned: "Crocodile knows what we’re about to do next; he definitely won’t be happy..."

"It doesn’t matter."

Uehara Naraku spread his palms, looked at Kisame with a smile: "Didn’t he say we should cooperate with Kisame to do whatever we please..."

"Maybe..."

Nico Robin pondered for a moment, then swallowed her unfinished sentence; maybe Crocodile only wants us to handle things he can manage?

Robbing Windmill Village...

Feels like Crocodile probably can’t handle that!

"Don’t worry, don’t worry..."

Uehara Naraku extended his fingers and counted: "Robbing Windmill Village would at most make Baroque Works offend a Navy Hero, a Four Emperor from the New World, a leader and Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army, and the recently popular Super Rookie..."

Uehara Naraku waved his hand, chuckled, and said: "These small fries, Mr. Crocodile surely won’t take them seriously; he’s a man who wants to become the Pirate King!"

"..."

Nico Robin remained silent.

How could he speak of such terrifying things so nonchalantly! Any one of them could cause significant trouble for Crocodile...

Nico Robin frowned and softly said: "Mr. Naraku, I think maybe I should inform Crocodile in advance, about us attacking Navy Hero Garp’s hometown, lest he suspects we’re acting on our own..."

"As you wish."

Uehara Naraku glanced at Hoshigaki Kisame beside him and calmly said: "After today, let’s have Kakuzu begin cleaning up Baroque Works as usual, forcing Mr. Crocodile to rely solely on us!"

After speaking, Uehara Naraku continued: "Oh, and after dealing with those former members of Baroque Works, spread the word that Crocodile is the president, lest this guy tries to disassociate himself from Baroque Works prematurely."

Upon saying this, Uehara Naraku sighed melancholically: "If we don’t push Crocodile to the brink, he won’t realize his own strength."

"Indeed..."

Hoshigaki Kisame also grinned, pulling out his Radio Snail to contact the grumpy Kakuzu he disliked.

Grand Line.

Jaya Island, Demon Valley Town bar.

This was a paradise for pirates, with most of the inhabitants being pirates, and the business entirely reliant on pirates, which also attracted some bounty hunters.

"Quite a paradise-like town."

A figure lifted the curtain, carrying two people inside, speaking leisurely: "Making money here is as easy as picking it up off the ground..."

No, not two people.

This guy was carrying two corpses!

"Hey, Kakuzu!"

Another younger man followed, clearly displeased: "We’re going to a bar; can you please not bring these two corpses!"

"Shut up!"

They were the Immortal Duo, Kakuzu and Hidan.

Kakuzu interrupted Hidan, dropping the corpses from his shoulders with a glance around the bar, speaking in a deep voice: "Looks like we can add a few more trophies!"

The pirates in the Demon Valley Town bar watched them.

None of the pirates laughed at the bounty hunters this time; instead, fear and nervousness were on their faces. These two bounty hunters were definitely not to be trifled with!

Only one pirate sitting in the corner couldn’t help but laugh: "Fufufufu... Obviously, powerful bounty hunters, yet acting like garbage collectors, how amusing!"

"Bastard, what did you say!"

Hidan’s face twisted with rage, swinging his scythe as he charged forward, only to be repelled by an invisible shockwave!

Strings shot forth, sticking to Hidan’s body!

In the next moment, Hidan swung his scythe and charged toward Kakuzu, shouting: "Hey, Kakuzu, I can’t control my body!"

"I can see that."

Kakuzu dodged an attack, his fist instantly turning to stone, and he punched Hidan, sending his partner flying away.

"Fufufufu... Interesting."

A tall, lean man chuckled quietly as he walked out slowly, wearing tiny sunglasses, with a pink feather coat draped over him and pointy shoes tapping arrogantly on the ground.

The pirates involuntarily backed away, making way for him!

One of the pirates, voice trembling uncontrollably, called out his identity: "Seven Warlords of the Sea... Doflamingo!"

"Still, there are quite a few sensible ones here!"

A flash of light glinted in Doflamingo’s sunglasses, and the next moment, a thread suddenly flew from his fingertips, slitting the throats of every pirate directly!

After killing all the pirates, Doflamingo turned to look at Kakuzu, spreading his hands with some enthusiasm, saying, "I specifically lured these pirates here as a gift for Mr. Kakuzu..."

"Thank you very much."

Kakuzu nodded nonchalantly, clearly dismissing the person before him, merely speaking in a muffled voice: "Relax, we won’t touch the Seven Warlords of the Sea, because killing you guys brings no bounty..."

"No one has ever dared to speak like that in front of me..."

Doflamingo spread his hands and laughed wildly a few times, then suddenly continued, "But I’ll forgive you! I came to meet Mr. Kakuzu, just to ask why after killing some people, their hearts always go missing. It reminds me of a Devil Fruit ability I’ve always dreamed of. Do you know that..."

Blub-blub!

Blub-blub!

The Radio Snail rang urgently.

Kakuzu paid no attention to Doflamingo in front of him, pulled out his Radio Snail, and calmly answered, "I’m not very convenient right now; there’s a Seven Warlords of the Sea named Doflamingo next to me, seems like he’s looking for someone..."

Kakuzu spoke as if nobody else was around.

Doflamingo stood beside him, unconcerned, merely chuckling darkly under his breath, "Hehe... this is getting more interesting." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

"..."

The other side of the Radio Snail fell into silence.

After a while, a voice came from the other side of the Radio Snail, "Give your Radio Snail to Doflamingo."

"Oh."

Kakuzu slowly nodded, handing the Radio Snail to Doflamingo: "Someone wants to talk to you, you’d better answer."

His words sounded somewhat threatening.

Doflamingo didn’t mind, just grinned and slowly reached out to take the Radio Snail from Kakuzu.

An arrogant voice rang from the other side of the Radio Snail, sounding extremely domineering: "After this call, stay away from my subordinate."

"How arrogant..."

Doflamingo’s grin widened as he nonchalantly replied, "If you want to intimidate someone, you should at least start by stating your name..."

"Donquixote Homingu."

"Bastard!"

Upon hearing this name, anger immediately crossed Doflamingo’s face, for it was his father’s name!

There was hardly anything more insulting!

The voice on the other side of the Radio Snail didn’t care about his attitude, just chuckled slightly, "I thought you would always stay so calm... anyone might think you’re more arrogant than me! Doflamingo... you Celestial Dragon scum...

Oh, my mistake, now you’re just a pirate, even if you carry your father’s head wanting to enter Mary Geoise, those scumbags won’t let you in anymore."

"..."

Holding the Radio Snail, veins showed prominently on Doflamingo’s face. Just who was this guy, knowing even this?

What surprised him the most was...

The arrogant attitude of the person on the other side, undoubtedly this guy was also someone who disregarded rules, not some small-time character!

"Who the hell are you..."

Doflamingo clutched the Radio Snail tighter, bringing it to his lips, his face sinister, "...who are you really?"

"First, let me see your strength!"

The person on the other side of the Radio Snail continued nonchalantly, "Oh, by the way, there’s a guy who deeply loves his brother, bringing along someone very dear to his older brother, entering the New World.

They’ll probably send you a gift in Dressrosa, you’d better hurry back to save your country. Before you die, if there’s time, tell your enemy one thing, say a guy named Uchiha Itachi asked him to spare your life."

"..."

Uchiha...

This surname was extremely rare.

Doflamingo’s expression instantly froze, immediately recalling Uchiha Sasuke who was known as a monster upon first setting sail. The person on the other side of the Radio Snail wasn’t speaking without basis!

Indeed...

Pirates entering the New World would almost certainly visit the vibrant Dressrosa, usually only some minor characters in past years.

But this year, two monsters have arrived!

Even Doflamingo knew how lawless Uchiha Sasuke was, the guy who seriously wounded an admiral in Shampodi and even nearly killed a Celestial Dragon!

The reminder from the person on the other side of the Radio Snail was indeed correct...

If the Black Spade Pirates landed in Dressrosa and caused trouble, it really would be difficult to manage. Doflamingo anticipated this scenario long ago, which was why he snuck away, to avoid too much embarrassment if things turned sour...

"Hehe... I’m even more interested in you now..."

Doflamingo chuckled a few times and continued over the Radio Snail, "Today I’ll let your subordinate off... but if I find out you’re deceiving me..."

"All you have to do is kneel to me then."

The statement from the other side of the Radio Snail nearly choked Doflamingo, who then continued nonchalantly, "Go away, if you don’t return to Dressrosa to welcome your guests today, there won’t be that country anymore."
