Chapter 147: Want to Learn? I'll Teach You!

Chapter 147: Want to Learn? I'll Teach You!

After a brief moment of silence, Jin spoke, "Your Excellency is right."

"I am Windstorm Naruto, the ambassador of the Divine Empire in Leizhou. May I ask for your names?" Naruto inquired with a smile.

"I am Jin, one of the top executives of the Beast Pirates," Jin introduced himself.

"And I am Kaido, the captain of the Beast Pirates and one of the Four Emperors in the New World," Kaido added.

Kaido burst into laughter, but it quickly turned into a violent cough as it aggravated his wound.

"Hahaha! Kaido, you are already very strong. If it were before our worlds collided, I wouldn't have been able to defeat you so easily," Naruto laughed.

Naruto's right hand glowed with a golden light, and the light transformed into a warm current that flowed towards Kaido's body, healing him at a visible rate. The broken body and bones began to mend within minutes.

Kaido stood up from the ground, shook his head, and exclaimed in disbelief, "What...what kind of ability is this? It healed me instantly... Even the best doctors in our world couldn't do this. It's incredible!"

Jin also stared intently at the Divine Empire's Naruto.

"This is the special power of our world—the Healing Jutsu. Or you can call it the application of Yang Gate," Naruto explained.

"How about it? Do you want to learn it? I can teach you," Naruto offered with a smile.

"Teach us? Really? It seems you've already learned Dominance Aura from Roger..." Kaido said in astonishment.

"Of course, no problem, Kaido, Jin," Naruto replied with a toothy grin, giving them a thumbs-up.

The two men still looked doubtful.

In the world of pirates, they were used to deception, betrayal, bullying, and cruelty. It was hard for them to believe that there could be such a thing as a free lunch in this world.

"Don't look at me with such skepticism. As you know, there's a huge gap between our strengths. If I wanted to deal with you, it would be an easy task. So, I have no reason to deceive you," Naruto assured them.

"But there is a reason why we're willing to help you," Naruto added, seeing their slight change in expression.

The two men's faces showed a hint of relief.

"Well, what is it? We will agree as long as we can offer something in exchange," Kaido said.

"Hahaha! Helping weaker worlds, learning from each other, and progressing together has always been the principle of our Empire. And all of this is to prepare for the Great Tree Clan!" Naruto laughed, but his expression turned solemn as he finished speaking.

"Learning from each other and progressing? What is this Great Tree Clan? Why do they need such powerful beings as you to prepare for them?" Kaido asked, puzzled.

"They are a formidable race, and even their weakest members possess strength comparable to yours," Naruto explained.

Kaido's body trembled at these words, and Jin's eyelids twitched uncontrollably.

What a joke! Even the weakest of them are as strong as Mr. Kaido?

But this is Mr. Kaido! One of the Four Emperors in the New World! The strongest being on land, sea, and air! One of the mightiest people in the world!

Even the Lunaalia, known for their divine status and extraordinary talents, would struggle to produce such a powerful individual.

And yet, the weakest members of the Great Tree Clan are this strong?

They should be the ones called gods! They are the true divine clan!

"You're surprised, aren't you? I was too when I first heard this intelligence," Naruto said.

"Indeed, I am surprised. If their weakest members are as strong as me, then what about their strongest? How terrifying must they be? Calling them a divine clan seems fitting," Kaido said.

"In a sense, you can call them a divine clan," Naruto explained. "The Great Tree Clan is a race in our universe with the power to roam the cosmos and even traverse time and space. Their objective is to plunder other planets and civilizations to plant a tree known as the Divine Tree."

"This Divine Tree consumes the nutrients of planets and bears fruit. When the Great Tree Clan consumes these fruits, their powers undergo a dramatic transformation. Some of their strongest members rival or even surpass my own abilities!" Naruto elaborated.

Naruto's mind couldn't help but recall the Great Tree Clan's deity, Ootsutsuki.

What might this god of the Great Tree Clan be doing in a higher dimension...?

(End of Chapter 147)

Are they planning to attack the Empire with their clan?

Kaido and Jin were once again astounded by the words of the Imperial Naruto.

"Feeding on planets... a power comparable to Mr. Naruto... perhaps even stronger..." Kaido muttered, his eyes widening in disbelief.

"So... you're helping us so that we can become stronger and join you in fighting against the Great Tree Clan?" Jin seemed to have figured it all out.

"Indeed, to fight against the Great Tree Clan together!"

We understand that the strength of a few worlds, a few planets, is simply not enough to match such a formidable enemy, so we need more allies," the Imperial Naruto explained.

Upon hearing this, Kaido and Jin exchanged a glance, seeing belief in each other's eyes.

There was no reason not to trust him. After all, the Imperial Naruto had already demonstrated overwhelming power, possessing the strength to annihilate them in an instant. They couldn't fathom any reason for him to deceive 'weaklings' like them.

"I see. Although I am one of the Four Emperors in our world, the power I control is not that significant. It's merely a country on an island. In our world, the true rulers are the Dragon People and their World Government." Kaido's eyes flickered slightly as he spoke.

"We are aware of this information, which we learned from previous guests. However, the actions of the Dragon People, the World Government, and their Navy are, in the eyes of His Majesty, utterly despicable. Therefore, the Empire will never collaborate with such individuals." The Imperial Naruto's face showed unmistakable disdain when mentioning the Dragon People and the World Government.

The world of the Pirate King was far dirtier and darker than the Shinobi world. Legal slave trading and oppression by the upper echelons plunged those targeted by the Dragon People into endless darkness, a place devoid of any glimmer of hope. Resistance was futile!

Hearing this, Kaido and Jin both showed signs of delight. Kaido tightened his grip on his cudgel and said, "Then... Mr. Naruto must also be aware of the Four Emperors, right? Do you have any opinions about us?" His voice carried a hint of caution.

"I have some knowledge of them. The Four Emperors and the Resistance Army are organizations that oppose the Dragon People and the World Government. Our Empire is willing to cooperate with you." The Imperial Naruto's words brought even more joy to Kaido and Jin.

"Wooo... Thank you for the Empire's trust in us! Mr. Naruto, please believe in us! We will be the best partners!" Kaido exclaimed, extending his right hand with a hearty laugh.

The Imperial Naruto reciprocated the gesture, and their large hands clasped together.

An hour later, the Imperial Naruto led Kaido and Jin through a Teleportation Jutsu Array, traversing space and appearing directly in a spacious room resembling a subway station in the Imperial Capital.

They were surrounded by compartments, and as they walked through them, they witnessed the transformed surroundings.

Kaido was amazed, "Have we already traveled thousands of miles to reach the Imperial Capital?"

"Indeed, the Spatial Jutsu Array. It's an advanced application of ninjutsu. Pretty convenient, right?" The Imperial Naruto replied with a smile.

"Impressive technology. In our world, I've only heard of the Gate Gate Fruit possessing such capabilities," Kaido praised.

As they conversed and walked, they soon reached a more spacious area.

In the open space, a figure wielded a short sword, flashing like lightning. Another figure created dozens, even hundreds, of afterimages.

The clanging of blades echoed throughout the entire space.

The aftermath of their battle, the energy blades, should have torn the earth apart, but they were absorbed by the surrounding metal on the ground.

Kaido narrowed his eyes, while Jin showed a hint of shock. They were impressed by the high-performance metal of this world and the intense battle before them.

The fight was so intense that even they struggled to follow the moves clearly! Most importantly, the combatants appeared incredibly young.

If his guess was correct, these two were probably only around eighteen years old!

To possess such skill at eighteen... they were undoubtedly extraordinary talents. He wondered how many more geniuses like them existed in this world. If there were more, the overall combat strength of this world would be truly terrifying.

"These two kids are incredibly strong.

Can Mr. Naruto get them to come back with us and join my pirate crew?"

Kaido, excited by the prospect of new recruits, couldn't help but speak up.

Before Imperator Naruto could respond, the two fighters paused their battle.

Two men appeared, one with white hair, wearing a tight-fitting outfit, holding a short knife, and exuding arrogance, and the other with black hair, red eyes, and a gentle demeanor.

The arrogant man, with a defiant look, stared at Kaido and said, "Hey! You big guy, you're quite bold to want me to join your pirate crew and be your subordinate. Do you know who I am?"

Flagpole Trash East, with a smirk, replied, "Don't say it like that. This uncle here just appreciates our strength, that's all... And I'm sure he doesn't know who we are..."

The black-haired man, feeling helpless, grabbed the arrogant man's right arm.

"Rumble... I truly don't know who you are.

But... the world I come from is very interesting. It has unimaginable delicacies, strange fruits that can transform people, and gigantic sea monsters that are dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of meters long!

Kid... won't you reconsider?"

Kaido burst into laughter.

"Hmph... Delicacies? The food in our empire is definitely better than yours!

Strange fruits? I hope I won't turn out like you after eating them! I don't want to be that ugly!

As for the sea monsters, they are quite fascinating.

But if you want me to join you, it's not impossible. You just have to defeat me."

Flagpole Trash East smiled, showing his teeth.

With a flick of his right hand, the white-toothed short knife in his hand spun, emitting sharp, cold rays.

"Defeat me? No problem! But if I beat you, don't cry, okay? Rumble..."

Kaido laughed heartily.

He agreed without hesitation.

Having witnessed their earlier fight, Kaido knew the kid was strong, but in his eyes, he was no more than Jin. Defeating him wouldn't require much effort.

Hehehe... Kid, you're young and inexperienced. Now, come aboard obediently!

Kaido's laughter became more cunning.

A quarter of an hour later...

Clang, clang, clang...

Kaido stood in place, continuously swinging his mace.

Numerous Flagpole Trash Easts transformed into lightning, surrounding him, flashing so rapidly that they were invisible to the naked eye:

"Hey, hey, hey! Uncle, you said I should be your subordinate, and you'd defeat me, but why can't I do it now?"

The multiple Flagpole Trash Easts spoke simultaneously, their voices echoing in the air.

"You damn kid! What's your ability that you can create so many real bodies, making it impossible for me to accurately attack you? Damn it!"

Kaido roared in frustration.

His Perception Aura could lock onto enemies, but it couldn't differentiate between real and fake! Even if he got lucky and landed a hit, the kid would turn into mist, leaving Kaido feeling helpless.

Instead, he found himself on the defensive, getting slashed several times. If not for his thick skin, a regular person would have been killed by now...

Kaido wasn't afraid of being slashed. He was confident he could defeat this kid.

However, it would take time to exhaust the kid's stamina.

Defeating a kid wasn't a victory worth boasting about.

Boom! Another strike, and a shadow clone was blasted.

Kaido wanted to stop the fight.

But the surrounding Flagpole Trash Easts suddenly changed their tactics. Multiple figures leaped backward, and with their hands in front of their mouths, they shouted, "Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

Boom! Water erupted from the ground, and several dozens of meters long water dragons soared into the air, charging towards Kaido.

"As expected! People from this world can use water-related abilities! Kid, this move of yours is unbeatable for ordinary ability users, but I'm not afraid! Roar!"

Kaido roared, transforming from human to dragon, and releasing a terrifying heatwave. The water dragon bullets were completely evaporated before they could get close.

"You're pretty strong, old man... to not even fear that."

Flagpole Trash East's surprised voice echoed from all directions.

"Haha! Of course, I am one of the Four Emperors, after all! But there's no need to continue the fight.

Your ability is too bizarre, and you keep dodging and avoiding a direct confrontation. It's no fun!"

Kaido roared in response.

"Battles are never straightforward; they are ever-changing. Uncle, let's call it a draw this time."

Flagpole Trash East stopped flashing and taunted.

But his eyes held a hint of seriousness.
