Jiraiya and the others brought the warship and a group of people from the Pirate World straight through Yomotsu Hirasaka, arriving at the place where Shisui had left a Flying Thunder God mark.
Jiraiya rested briefly. Traveling through space with so many people had taken a great deal out of him.
However, the gains this time had been substantial. They had captured a group of people, including some Navy Vice Admiral, as well as someone suspected to possess an Ice Release bloodline—perhaps from eating a Devil Fruit.
"Go!"
Jiraiya swiftly opened the Space-Time Passage. After confirming that no one was watching the area, the two ships entered the passage directly.
Orochimaru and the others had already been waiting aboard the Konohamaru Ship for several days. Still, no one was anxious, since exploring another world was extremely important to Konoha.
"It's already been several days. There shouldn't be much danger, right?"
Tsunade was somewhat uncertain.
But if there had been danger, Jiraiya and the others would have returned immediately, right?
"They're here!"
A ninja was the first to sense the spatial fluctuations. In an instant, all the ninjas sprang into action and gathered on the deck of the Konohamaru Ship.
Two ships emerged from the pitch-black Space-Time Passage. Jiraiya stood at the bow, gazing proudly at everyone.
This counted as a triumphant return for him, didn't it?
"Quick, come take over! I need to reshape the Space-Time Passage!"
Using Flying Thunder God, Shisui appeared directly beside Orochimaru and began reporting everything that had happened over the past few days.
"A world covered by oceans? Devil Fruits, the World Government..."
"You captured a Navy Vice Admiral. That's good news..."
Orochimaru thought quickly and began analyzing the situation.
Hiruzen Sarutobi stood nearby and let out a sigh of relief.
The One Piece World?
