Uchiha Mai sent Sakumo Hatake and Kakuzu to the East Blue.
The others appeared aboard the warship with him.
Hina jumped at the sudden appearance of Konan and Namikaze Minato, who had used the Transformation Technique to take on the Third's appearance.
"Who are they?"
"Members of the Akatsuki."
Uchiha Mai had no intention of hiding anything and volunteered an explanation to Hina. "I can summon people to my side. That was what I went to take care of just now."
After hearing that, the beautiful Marine captain fell silent.
Hina wondered whether the Marines could actually bring Uchiha Mai to justice.
With an ability like that, couldn't he infiltrate Marine Headquarters alone, summon his subordinates, and take over the place outright?
The more Captain Hina learned, the more terrifying Uchiha Mai seemed.
Wearing the Third's face, Master Minato wandered around, trying to settle into this world more quickly.
Konan stayed close behind Uchiha Mai.
"Third?"
Might Guy jumped at the sight of him, while Shizune looked puzzled as well.
Uchiha Mai waved them off before they could ask any more questions.
Captain Hina keenly committed that title to memory.
The third!
Was this smiling old man the Akatsuki's third leader?
Then was Uchiha Mai the fourth?
Did that mean there had been a first and second as well?
If Uchiha Mai was already this powerful, just how strong would the Akatsuki's third leader be?
Captain Hina felt she had to report this important information to Fleet Admiral Sengoku as soon as possible.
She quickly found an excuse to return to her cabin, abandoning even her chance to see the Knock-Up Stream, which she had always been curious about.
Not long afterward, while the beautiful Marine captain was still reporting to Sengoku, the entire warship was blasted into the sky
