"What's going on?"
This sudden development once again startled everyone present.
Even Akainu and the other two Admirals were caught off guard. They instinctively backed away, eyes full of caution.
Akainu asked in a low voice, "Kuzan, what is he doing? What's happening?"
Aokiji shook his head. "I don't know. It's the first time I've seen anything like this."
Then he suddenly remembered something — the mysterious appearance of Master Roshi after Lin Xuan arrived on Skypiea. Based on his investigation, Master Roshi wasn't originally from Skypiea at all, just like those mysterious phenomena appearing from nowhere!
A strange hunch rose in his heart — maybe this bizarre scene unfolding now was related to how Master Roshi appeared back then.
And this intuition… was spot on.
At that moment, Sengoku finally came to his senses and gave a deep shout, "No matter what he's doing — stop him immediately! Attack!"
At his command, the elite marines snapped out of their stupor.
In the next moment, several captains rushed toward the strange cocoons, launching fierce attacks.
Seeing this, Lin Xuan showed no intention of stopping them and just watched calmly as their attacks landed on the large cocoons.
BOOM!
Before the attack could fully connect, one of the cocoons shattered, and a figure emerged from within!
After a brief moment of confusion, the man quickly processed the preset information delivered by the system and understood the situation.
The Marine captains were momentarily stunned but reacted swiftly and launched another attack.
However, in an instant, they saw a flock of black crows appear in front of them. The next moment, they found themselves bound to crosses under a blood-red sky with a massive crimson moon hanging overhead.
A shadowy figure emerged, wielding a blade that pierced their chests.
"AAAH!"
The searing pain made them scream in agony.
Just when they thought they had died, the scene reset—they were bound again, and killed again… in a loop.
Mangekyō Sharingan: Tsukuyomi!
In reality, the Marine captains dropped straight to the ground, unconscious.
In front of them stood a black-haired man with crimson eyes, spinning with three tomoe. He coldly scanned the surroundings and said, "There's information in my head… this is another world?"
This man — was none other than the famed "God of Genjutsu," Uchiha Itachi!
"What just happened?!"
"What did he do? Why did they all collapse?!"
"Is this some kind of strange Devil Fruit power?!"
The surrounding Marines were shocked and whispered among themselves, not daring to act rashly.
Meanwhile, the other cocoons began to shatter as well, and more figures stepped out.
Among them, of course, were Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama. But not only them — Tobirama, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Minato Namikaze, and nearly every Kage-level shinobi who had died in the Naruto world were now reanimated!
"You brat! Took you long enough! We were waiting forever!" Madara said impatiently to Lin Xuan.
As he spoke, his scarlet Sharingan swept across the area, sending a chill down the spines of nearby Marines, who unconsciously stepped back.
Uchiha Madara.
The man who had previously defeated Admiral Kizaru.
His name alone was enough to strike fear in the hearts of many within the Marine ranks.
Beside him, Hashirama seemed thrilled by the unfamiliar world.
Having fought alongside Madara to defeat Kaguya Otsutsuki, he had regained much of his confidence—and now, facing the powerful beings of this world, he was eager to test his strength again.
Tobirama, Hiruzen, Minato, and Jiraiya all wore expressions of curiosity as they examined their new surroundings.
They could all sense that this was a world vastly different from their own. A strange energy filled the air.
So this is the "One Piece World" that the First Hokage spoke of?
But most of their eyes were drawn to Lin Xuan.
Thanks to the system's preset information implanted in their minds upon reanimation, they all knew it was this young man who had brought them to this world.
A man who had not only crossed dimensions but had earned the respect of even Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama.
Their curiosity toward him ran deep.
Meanwhile, the battlefield had completely transformed.
Hundreds of figures in strange clothing emerged from the cocoons — a sight that left the Marines and spectators completely stunned.
Even Fleet Admiral Sengoku stood frozen in disbelief.
"This… How is this possible? How can there be so many?!"
He had prepared himself for the arrival of several powerful enemies — maybe ten or even twenty elite-level threats.
But this? Over a hundred of them?!
He had even drafted countermeasures for various situations and attack patterns.
But this… this wasn't anything he could've prepared for.
"If their strength is anywhere near Madara or Hashirama… then… how are we supposed to win?!"
Beside him, Garp and Vice Admiral Tsuru both widened their eyes, overwhelmed with shock.
It wasn't just the strange way they appeared — it was the terrifying aura that each of them carried.
They couldn't comprehend how such a force could have remained hidden for so long. Where had they been all this time?
But the truth was far more mind-blowing.
They weren't from this world.
They came from a place known as the Naruto World.
And now, because of Lin Xuan, they had descended upon the world of One Piece — and they were ready to make their move.
Across the world, countless people watching the battle live were left completely dumbfounded by the jaw-dropping spectacle unfolding before their eyes.
