How did you bunch of silly group members also time travel?

I can remember the Ninja Road movie, Miss Fox, very clearly. As for the other movies, they're mostly mentioned in fan fiction. I can't really remember many of them.

"But ultimately, even if we want to utilize the chakra of the dragon vein, we still need to find a way to experience the chakra ourselves first," Miss Fox said.

She came to the Naruto world specifically for chakra.

First, we directly discard the early setting that chakra was extracted from a mixture of spiritual and physical energy, and the later setting that it was transformed from the life energy of the planet absorbed by the Divine Tree.

You'll find that chakra is actually less prestigious than natural energy in many ways.

First of all, they are not even in the same league in terms of destructive power. And apart from the Otsutsuki clan being able to use chakra to achieve immortality, the things that ninjas make are all things that shorten their own lifespan, which feels even more low-class.

Then, chakra is really versatile and compatible with almost any other kind of energy that is not chakra. Not to mention the ones that appear in the movie, even in the original work, Sage Mode is a mixture of chakra and natural energy.

Chakra can even serve as an energy source. It is easy to operate and involves everything except time, including wind, fire, lightning, water, earth, space, and soul. It is a versatile thing in terms of application.

Not to mention, considering that the Otsutsuki clan came from space alone, their chakra could be used as a basis for a single soldier to break through the atmosphere.

It's just weird.

You said chakra is a higher form of natural energy, but it's impossible for humans, who can't even properly use natural energy, to use it at will. In the original work, natural energy is still considered more powerful and sophisticated, unless the life energy of a planet isn't natural energy.

You mean it's a degraded version, right...?

"Oh no, I probably know more about Naruto than Kishimoto himself!" Miss Fox wailed, clutching her head.

What's going on now? The Duke couldn't keep up with the new group leader's thought process at all.

She was just telling him not to overthink it, or he'd understand Naruto better than Kishimoto himself. Now it seems she's overthinking things and can't stop.

After thinking for a moment, the Duke advised, "Don't overthink it..."

"Fine, Kishimoto is just a lousy manga artist. His new work was even canceled. I definitely understand Naruto better!"

Ah this...

"Fox, don't give up on treatment! Take more medicine!"

"No, I'm not taking my medicine today. I feel so cute!" Miss Fox pushed the Duke away and stood up.

Miss Fox had given up thinking and pulled out a non-existent geared toy car—

"Come run a race with me, pshaw!" He misspoke!

"Let's start over. Let's go on the preliminary mission, go to the battlefield, and steal someone! Let's steal a ninja to play with!"

"...So after all this trouble, you're still going to capture a ninja, right?"

"Otherwise, how could we possibly get our hands on a Chakra Fruit?"

The Duke sighed, and had to start thinking about how he could possibly snatch a ninja from the battlefield without being detected.

To be honest, his skill set isn't suited for this job.

With an ionic perm and a knife, you can unleash a bunch of fancy skills without even needing to form hand seals. If someone sees that, it'll be too conspicuous.

This is why, although the Duke had always stayed within the Land of Fire, he had never participated in any wars.

Well, it's called war, isn't it?

"I don't need you, I can do it myself." Miss Fox glanced at the Duke, her face full of disdain.

Ah, this!

My heart suddenly aches!

"Although I know my skill set is indeed not suitable..."

"Don't play blind in team fights, that's common sense!"

"..." The Duke drew his sword with murderous intent for the first time!

Chapter 216 Mao Yu fell into deep thought

The windmill village is calm and peaceful.

A massive warship, seemingly out of place on this remote island, was docked at the pier. The ship was decorated with a distinctive bright red dog head on its bow, clearly belonging to some important figure.

It makes one wonder if this remote and isolated island is harboring some major wanted criminal.

"How is it? Isn't this place great?"

On the deck of the warship, a burly man wearing a dog-head hat and a coat with the word "Justice" written on it spoke proudly to a young girl who stood out from the surrounding naval soldiers and was dressed in plate armor reminiscent of a medieval European knight with strong religious elements.

It seems that the important figure on this warship did not come to this remote island to arrest any criminals.

"Peace and tranquility are only possible in such remote places, where there is a little peace in these chaotic times."

The plate-armored girl's serious evaluation made the nearly three-meter-tall burly man choke on his breath.

Despite being a girl who was less than two meters tall, she gave the impression of not being much shorter than the burly man who was nearly three meters tall.

Even his youthful face appeared somewhat heroic thanks to the full-body plate armor.

The angle at which she tilted her head back to make eye contact with the burly man was so striking that it made one's heart ache.

"Lieutenant Mao Yu, that's not what I want to hear."

Garp, who once dominated an era, was the archenemy of One Piece, and a hero of the Navy. But now, in front of the earnest-looking girl, he looked like a wilted eggplant, like an old man who had just discovered that his grandson had an eighteen-year-old uncle.

"Yes, I know." Mao Yu nodded seriously, looking dashing on the outside, but actually rubbing his toes inside his plate armor.

At the very tip of the plate armor boots, a tiny gap, the toes twitch and wiggle...

I was panicking like crazy!

She knew perfectly well why she was on this ship and why Garp had brought her to Windmill Village.

The mission is a long-term one of half exile and half shelving. Although it's paid, the difficulty of this mission is... Mao Yu would rather go and find a way to take down one of the Four Emperors right now!

"Hey... come with me."

Garp sighed, not wanting to say anything more.

"Lieutenant Mao Yu, I understand your situation, but we are, after all, the navy, and there are some things we can't do. Consider this mission a vacation; relax and have some fun in the East China Sea..."

With that, Garp led Mao Yu off the ship, greeting the residents of Windmill Village who saw him as he headed straight for the Windmill Village tavern.

Mao Yu followed without saying a word.

Mao Yu also knew that this matter was indeed a bit excessive. The fact that the Navy was able to forcibly protect her already showed that they valued her abilities quite a bit, and they were really hoping that she would become a future general.

Fortunately, the matter was handled relatively cleanly, with no Celestial Dragons left behind after being thoroughly exhumed and their ashes scattered.

However, Mao Yu didn't expect that the favorability she had intentionally or unintentionally increased with Akainu would actually come in handy. Akainu, who arrived at the scene immediately after the incident, didn't say anything, but silently took some of the blame for her, forcibly shifting the blame to the pirates and managing to get away with the matter.

The World Government didn't suspect anything, or rather, didn't care at all. In the end, she was only charged with dereliction of duty and was conscripted by Garp and given a long-term mission that seemed like exile but was actually a paid vacation.

This mission made Mao Yu want to die; she didn't want to take it at all. To her, it would be better to find a way to take down one of the Four Emperors.

"Luffy! Luffy, you brat, come out here! Today I'm going to introduce you to an outstanding Marine soldier, Lieutenant Mao Yu!"

"No! You old geezer, I'm going to be the Pirate King!!"

That's the reason, the grandfather and grandson in front of me, acting like clowns.

Anyone who's watched One Piece knows how obsessed Luffy, this single-minded idiot, is with becoming a pirate after being brainwashed by Shanks. He even equates piracy with freedom inextricably. "Come on, this brat is my grandson, isn't he adorable!"

"You old codger, give up! I will never become a Marine! I will become the Pirate King!"

Garp led Luffy, who was covered in bruises, over and proudly introduced him to Maoyu, while Luffy, with snot hanging from his nose, retorted to Garp with a face full of dissatisfaction.

And because Mao Yu was also wearing a navy coat, Luffy just glanced at Mao Yu and then snorted and turned his head away.

He took another hit from Garp's iron fist of love.

"Stinky boy!"

"Your grandson is so energetic."

Mao Yu smiled; she had been prepared all along.

After all, no matter what, she still had to do this task that gave her a huge headache. Little Luffy would be her long-term companion for some time to come, so she was well prepared.

"Hey, nice to meet you, little Luffy. I don't have any gift, so how about I treat you to this fried chicken leg?"

Mao Yu took out a large plate of special fried chicken legs from his inventory and handed it to Little Luffy. The rich aroma instantly spread, making everyone else in the tavern drool.

Little Luffy was incredibly talkative, his eyes bulging out, and he had to squeeze his thighs tightly to keep himself from touching it.

—Although his fingers had already obediently and secretly stretched out to touch it.

"Hmph! I'm going to be the Pirate King, I won't be tempted!"

I put the meat and One Piece together and chose One Piece.

However, Luffy's body was still quite obedient; his mind and body had different ideas, and his hand was already gripping the chicken leg tightly.

Mao Yu smiled warmly, handed the plate of fried chicken legs to Little Luffy, and said with a smile, "It has nothing to do with this, it's just a simple gift for Little Luffy to say hello~"

"Really?" It was already stuffed into its mouth.

"You brat, hurry up and thank Lieutenant Sister!" Seeing Luffy's rudeness, Garp immediately punched him, then casually pulled out almost half a fried chicken leg from the plate and stuffed it into his mouth, looking very much like a grandfather and grandson to Luffy. "If you become an excellent Marine soldier, you can ask Lieutenant Maoyu to make fried chicken legs for you every day!"

"You old geezer! This is for me!"

"I'm your grandfather, what's wrong with taking some to eat!"

"You old bastard, I'll fight you to the death!!"

"Alright, I'll give you a good lesson today!!"

Mao Yu smiled from the side.

My heart was filled with melancholy.

The task was to send her to bring young Luffy, who had experienced the Shanks incident, back to the Marines.

Is it too late to switch sides and join the Revolutionary Army?

Hey...

[Ding! A newbie invited you to join the Dimensional Chat Group]

Agree/Yes

???

Mao Yu was taken aback, looking at the group invitation with some surprise and uncertainty.

She was familiar with chat group invitations; after all, she had read novels with chat-based storylines before her transmigration, so she naturally knew this tactic.

She never expected that she would have a second cheat code.

But wait a minute.

Mao Yu crossed his arms and fell into deep thought.

Given the typical chat-style format, what if the group leader is the kind of person who relies on the original storyline to act like a master? Wouldn't it be very dangerous for her to get in?

And this thing is impossible to refuse!

No, for safety's sake, she needs to draft a feasible plan to seize control of the group first!
