Chapter 053: The Strongest Who Commands the Entire Naruto World!

"What other conditions do you have?"

Madara Uchiha said impatiently, "Stop beating around the bush and say it all at once!"

Hashirama Senju, on the other hand, looked at Lin Xuan seriously.

Lin Xuan shrugged and said, "You all know that to perform the Impure World Reincarnation, you need the DNA of the person to be reincarnated. Although I can obtain the DNA of the strong from your world in this world, the cost is quite high! So, not only will you have to convince those people to actively help me, but you'll also need to prepare their DNA in advance—and as much as possible. Even if you can't persuade some to help, you should still prepare their DNA. Is that okay?"

This was the key reason he wanted to get involved in the conflicts of the Naruto world!

Because the Fourth Great Ninja War in the Naruto world was just half a month away, once he finished boosting his reputation on Skypiea, he could start working on this plan.

Once the cross-dimensional communication was unlocked, he could send items to Madara Uchiha and the others via the "red packet" system, and they could likewise send things to him!

He hoped to take advantage of this opportunity to use Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju's influence to gather as much DNA from the strong in the Naruto world as possible.

That way, once the events in the Naruto world concluded, it would be time for him to wage war against the Marines. He wouldn't need to spend reputation points buying DNA from the system to perform Impure World Reincarnation for reinforcements!

When Madara Uchiha heard Lin Xuan's request, he agreed without hesitation: "I thought you were going to ask for something major. If it's just this, no problem! We'll spare Orochimaru and that guy Kabuto when the time comes and have them handle it!"

Hashirama Senju thought for a moment and eventually nodded in agreement.

After all, this task was trivial for them—a mere drop in the bucket compared to Lin Xuan's favor of helping them save their world. It was so insignificant that he even felt a little embarrassed and asked, "Are there any other conditions?"

"Nope, that's it!" Lin Xuan grinned.

Seeing this, Hashirama Senju couldn't help but feel even more favorable toward Lin Xuan: This young man is truly a good person! He does great deeds without seeking reward—a truly noble soul!

No, we can't just accept his kindness without repayment. We must find a way to compensate him properly later!

If Lin Xuan knew that Hashirama Senju was mentally giving him a "good person card" and even thinking of ways to repay him, he'd probably be overjoyed.

Of course, even without knowing, he was already in a great mood.

Because once Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju fulfilled his request, he would essentially command the entire roster of powerful figures from the Naruto world!

From then on, as long as he had enough reputation points, he could summon countless strong warriors from the Naruto world to descend upon the One Piece world. Who could possibly stand against him?

He was even starting to consider whether, after capturing Sabaody Archipelago, he should go all the way and overthrow the World Government to rule the entire world!

Originally, Madara Uchiha had planned to start researching how to create "White Zetsu" in this world to serve as sacrifices for Lin Xuan's future Impure World Reincarnations, as per their earlier agreement.

But since Lin Xuan now knew that cross-dimensional communication would be unlocked later, he saw no need to rush. They could just have Madara send over some high-yield White Zetsu spores from the Naruto world via the "red packet" system for cultivation.

Thus, Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju took the opportunity to refine the details of their plan further.

For example, how Madara could pretend to change his mind about reviving as the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki without arousing Black Zetsu's suspicion.

Meanwhile, Lin Xuan continued to adapt to his rapidly growing strength.

Their ship sailed on, heading straight for Jaya, the island beneath Skypiea.

At the same time, the events at Sabaody Archipelago were still contributing to Lin Xuan's reputation points. Though the growth rate wasn't fast, the gradual accumulation had already pushed his reputation points past 20 million.

The Grand Line itself was far from safe. Along the way, they naturally encountered dangers—some natural, others man-made.

But with Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju working together, these troubles were swiftly resolved.

Thus, their journey proceeded without major interruptions, and three days later, they arrived near Jaya Island.

Jaya was originally a skull-shaped island. However, 400 years ago, due to an upward sea current, half of the island was blasted into the sky, taking its inhabitants, animals, and ancient ruins with it—all the way up to 10,000 meters above sea level!

The part that was sent into the sky was the skull's head and face, which became Skypiea, while the remaining part on the ground—the skull's teeth—is the present-day Jaya.

As they approached Jaya, Lin Xuan couldn't help but gaze into the sky, trying to pierce through the clouds to spot Skypiea.

At this point, their ship's Log Pose was pointing straight upward—a phenomenon considered proof of Skypiea's existence.

However, even the people living on Jaya refused to believe Skypiea was real.

Lin Xuan, of course, knew Skypiea existed. While others needed the Knock Up Stream to reach it, he, Madara Uchiha, and Hashirama Senju had no such limitation.

Because both he and Madara could fly using Susanoo, and carrying Hashirama Senju along with the three Celestial Dragons would be no issue at all!

However, just as they docked at Jaya's port, left the three brainwashed pirate lackeys to guard the ship, and set off on a small boat with the three Celestial Dragons toward Skypiea, they found themselves surrounded by the Marines.

It turned out that their high-profile journey had attracted the attention of the Marines. Fleet Admiral Aokiji, who happened to be nearby, had personally led a force to intercept them—and now they were completely surrounded!
