Chapter 10: The Horror of Ninjutsu
"The ability in that world is more like a skill—as long as you learn it, you can use it! There is no uniqueness!"
Whitebeard wasn't even in the mood for a drink right now.
Marco didn't understand. It was just a change of appearance; what was the big deal? Devil Fruits also had similar abilities.
"Pops, there's nothing special about this ability! It's just changing into another person."
Hearing Marco say that, Whitebeard looked at him seriously.
"Fool!"
"Marco, did you only see the surface?"
Marco asked, "Is there anything else I haven't noticed, Pops?"
Hearing this, Whitebeard sighed. His protection seemed to have dulled these brats' ability to think for themselves.
Jozu and the others on board were also puzzled. They didn't know why this mere transformation ability was worth their father being so nervous.
"Idiots!"
"Twenty of them have the same ability!"
"Don't you know what this means?"
"This represents that the abilities of that world are not unique, and their abilities can be taught to others!"
"Devil Fruits, however, have unique abilities in our world. An ability can only be possessed by one person!"
"Do you understand the gap between the two now?"
Devil Fruits were unique; each ability could only have one user. As for the ninjutsu in the Ninja World, as long as one had the aptitude, they could learn it. Then, the same ability could be replicated.
Replicability itself wasn't the issue. The frightening thing was the copying of strength. A powerful person was one thing, but if his ability could be passed on to make others strong, that would be quite terrifying.
Listening to Whitebeard's explanation, Marco and the others finally seemed to understand.
"Pops, although I understand what you mean, it's just a transformation ability. Even if everyone in that world knows it, it's nothing!"
"Idiot, have you forgotten the two men in the previous battle?"
Asked by Whitebeard, Marco's back suddenly began to sweat.
If the previous two men could also pass on their abilities to others... Even if others couldn't fully master it, simply learning the basics would be an extremely terrifying thing.
Seeing Marco begin to realize the implication, Whitebeard sighed. He finally understood the horror of another world.
A technique!
Whitebeard saw this, and the other Yonko figured it out as well. It was precisely because they discovered this situation that they were so surprised.
On the screen, twenty invaders had transformed into ordinary Marine soldiers. Many had already arrived around the Naval Headquarters building, right under the noses of the generals. These people looked up at the golden Marine flag on the roof.
This act of looking up made countless people in the Pirate World start to worry. These guys had identified their targets. They were going to make a move.
Now, only three minutes had passed since the countdown began. The soldiers of Naval Headquarters searched everywhere, but they couldn't find any suspicious persons. It was as if there were no intruders at all. Even the Vice Admirals couldn't help but wonder if there really were any invaders from another world.
On the plaza directly in front of the Naval Headquarters building, Sengoku stood watching the Marine soldiers running back and forth. He was watching to see if anyone found an invader, while simultaneously asking people to use the phone bugs to contact the outside world.
But the soldiers had clearly reported: the phone bugs didn't work at all. Only people on the island could be contacted.
The news surprised Sengoku.
Did that strange barrier completely isolate the entire island?
Sengoku frowned and ordered the Marines next to him to search with all their strength, not to miss any possible hiding places.
People in the Pirate World watched Sengoku in the frame. He didn't know that just ten steps in front of him was the invader from another world he was looking for.
This man was looking at the Naval Headquarters building while secretly watching Sengoku. He also noted the other Vice Admirals in the square who looked serious, breathing steadily and powerfully.
People of this world! It seems that their physique is generally very strong!
This "average" Marine soldier was analyzing Sengoku and the others. At the same time, his eyes drifted toward the Naval Headquarters building. The golden flag on top could be easily seen without looking for it deliberately.
However, there were still two people standing under the banner: a young man and a middle age man. These two guarded the flag, and it seemed that their strength should be very high among these Marines.
People of this world! They are really tall! What did they grow up on?!
Yuichi was two meters tall, which was already tall in the eyes of ordinary people from Earth, but Kizaru next to him was three meters tall! Even Aokiji was nearly three meters tall. In this world, it seemed that the stronger a person was, the taller they were. Compared to the three Admirals, Yuichi was almost considered short. However, compared to the people of the Ninja World, Yuichi was considered a very tall person.
The disguised Marine soldier was staring at Kizaru and Yuichi on the headquarters building. But in the next second, Yuichi keenly felt that someone was watching him.
Looking down, Yuichi and the Marine soldier's eyes met.
Got you...
The corners of Yuichi's mouth turned up slightly.
Ninety percent chance this eccentric Marine soldier was not a Naval Headquarters soldier. Why? Because the other party's eyes were completely devoid of the fanaticism found in ordinary soldiers. The other party's eyes were full of scrutiny.
Yuichi slowly lifted his leg.
In this moment, the Marine soldier's expression began to change subtly.
Was I discovered? How is this possible? He felt it just by looking at me?
Swish!
Tempest Kick!
A cyan light streaked across the sky, making the sound of breaking wind at extremely high speed. In an instant, it cut toward the invader.
Boom! Buzz!
Suddenly, there was a violent roar in the square.
Sengoku snapped his head up. He had seen the blow from the sky from the corner of his eye; it was obviously an attack from the roof of the headquarters building.
Tempest Kick. It should be Yuichi's attack. Who was he attacking? Did Yuichi find someone?
The cyan light tore through the ground, setting off thick smoke. The violent noise caused all the Marines in the square to look in that direction instantly!
Suddenly, someone jumped out of the smoke!
When he saw the person appearing in the dust, Sengoku's expression froze.
