As Nagasawa expected, Neji was not suitable for practicing Sun Breathing. After practicing for one or two weeks, Neji did not show any talent for practicing Sun Breathing, and the same symptoms as Sasuke before even appeared.
So Nagasawa could only temporarily have Neji give up Sun Breathing and let Neji practice the most basic breathing without any inclination. He would practice like this for now, and after Nagasawa helped Neji develop a brand-new Breathing Style, he would switch.
Fortunately, Nagasawa had prepared for this long ago, so the development speed was not slow.
He named this Breathing Style Eight Trigrams Breathing Style. In Nagasawa's vision, this should be the Breathing Style most suitable for the Hyuga Clan. The development process referenced Gentle Fist.
In his vision, this Breathing Style should belong to a relatively comprehensive Breathing Style. It had the steady and lasting characteristics of Water Breathing, and also had powerful moves like Sun Breathing. It also had both close-range and long-range attack methods.
Of course, having everything also meant that none of them were top-tier. Although it was lasting, it was not as lasting as Water Breathing. It had explosive moves, but its explosive power could not compare to Thunder Breathing.
Even so, Nagasawa still felt that this Breathing Style was very good. It was a very outstanding and promising Breathing Style.
After all, no matter how strong a Breathing Style was, in the end, it still depended on the person. Outstanding people would ultimately improve the Breathing Style into the one most suitable for themselves.
Aside from the Breathing Style that had not been successfully practiced, the Six Powers training progressed smoothly.
Three months later, Nagasawa discovered that prosperity had finally reached four thousand.
Four thousand prosperity did not open a new template. Only when prosperity reached five thousand could a new template be opened.
Nagasawa estimated that it would not rise for a while. At least not in these two years, because only one month remained this year, and prosperity became harder to raise the further it went, unless some major progress suddenly appeared and made it skyrocket.
If the Ninja World suddenly had a technological revolution and its technological level soared to the level of his previous life, perhaps it could realize a sudden surge in prosperity.
Nagasawa felt that this was even harder than grinding to five thousand, and might take even more time.
The Ninja World's technology tree had already grown crooked. Who knew what it could develop into?
However, Nagasawa was still very much looking forward to five thousand prosperity. After all, three thousand was already a Six Paths-level template.
The total strength of a five-thousand-prosperity template would definitely surpass the Six Paths level. It would be a powerhouse on another level.
If his strength surpassed the Six Paths level, Nagasawa's sense of security would be slightly greater. After all, according to the currently known intelligence, even Kaguya, who ate the God Tree fruit, was actually only a powerful existence within the Six Paths level and had not surpassed the Six Paths.
With strength surpassing the Six Paths level, there would be no need to fear ordinary Otsutsuki Clan members.
After reaching four thousand prosperity, Nagasawa discovered the system's new function. A new panel had been added, and on it were the challenge mission worlds Nagasawa had once gone to. The covers were all portraits of the template characters.
The first was Tsugikuni Yoriichi, wearing a red haori and holding a katana.
In the portrait, Yoriichi was expressionless and tightly gripping his blade, as though saying something.
Nagasawa thought this should be the first and last time Yoriichi encountered Muzan. Yoriichi defeated Muzan and asked Muzan what exactly he regarded life as.
Unfortunately, Yoriichi had not been able to kill Muzan that time, because Muzan split himself into one thousand eight hundred pieces of flesh and launched them out. Even though Yoriichi swung his blade in an instant, he only cut down more than one thousand five hundred of them, so Muzan escaped in the end.
After that, Muzan hid and never came out, so this was also the last time Yoriichi met Muzan.
Although according to Muzan's immortality, he should have been a fairly troublesome boss, unfortunately, at that time, Nagasawa already had the Whitebeard template. Blasting Muzan apart was simply too easy.
Nagasawa skipped past Yoriichi's template, then looked at the next one. A strong man holding a long-handled blade stood on a battlefield filled with cannon fire. Even though his body had many fresh wounds constantly bleeding, his figure still stood tall without the slightest hunch. His face carried a contemptuous smile, as though mocking the weakness of the enemy's attacks, giving people an infinitely great sense of security.
Without a doubt, this was the scene of Whitebeard during the Summit War.
Nagasawa had personally experienced it once. Even though at that time, relying on Yoriichi's template, he had developed the incomparably powerful Ninja World version of Sun Breathing, and with Tobirama's template also assisting him, he had only succeeded in rescuing Ace by advancing cautiously step by step.
The fighting power on the Navy's side was truly too great. The current Three Admirals, Akainu, Kizaru, and Aokiji, were none of them simple.
Sengoku was also not someone easy to provoke, and Garp needed even less explanation. If the one being executed were not his own grandson, Garp would have long charged up and violently beaten the pirates on the other side.
On top of that, Nagasawa was fighting in Whitebeard's place, and his abilities that had never been shown before caught the Navy off guard. They had not expected that Whitebeard, a man who was about to die, was still so strong, which was why Ace was rescued.
Originally, retreating was also a difficult matter. If Shanks had not come later, the Navy would not have let the Whitebeard Pirates leave easily.
The One Piece world was currently the world Nagasawa wanted to go to the most, because he was curious what the timeline where Ace was rescued and Blackbeard was killed would look like.
With Blackbeard killed and Whitebeard surviving, the position of the Four Emperors would not change. Ace surviving would cause a huge blow to the Navy's reputation.
Aside from being curious about the plot after being changed by him, it was also because the Pirate world had quite a few experts, and he could go satisfy his urge to fight.
After all, when beating pirates like Kaido and Big Mom, Nagasawa would not have the slightest psychological burden. He could be as ruthless as he wanted.
The last one was the scene of Edo Tensei Tobirama during the Fourth Ninja World War. Nagasawa also directly skipped it.
He would go to this world, but he wanted to go to the One Piece world first.
As for the Demon Slayer world, Nagasawa most likely would not go. Muzan had already been killed, and the other demons should also have died with him, so there was nothing worth going to.
Nagasawa learned about the system's new function in detail. First, just like with breakthrough missions, no matter how long he entered, only an instant would pass in his own world.
Then there was a charge per entry, one hundred and fifty thousand points each time.
Seeing that it required so many points, Nagasawa was greatly startled. Good grief, right now, he only gained a little over one hundred and sixty thousand points a month, yet entering once actually required one month of his points.
However, seeing the latter part, Nagasawa revealed a smile.
After entering, any object he touched could be exchanged with points and used in the Hokage world.
Nagasawa directly thought, good grief, then after he entered, would he not have to fiercely touch Devil Fruits? Would it not be wonderful to bring them to the Hokage world then?
Because the water in the Hokage world and the water in the One Piece world were different. There was no such special substance, so the weakness of fearing water would directly disappear.
Those Great Grade Blades, Supreme Grade Blades, and so on could also be touched. They could all be considered good things.
However, Nagasawa suddenly thought that it seemed powerful fruits had all been eaten. How was he supposed to touch them?
Fortunately, at this time, the system thoughtfully prompted that for Devil Fruits, he only needed to touch the ability user, but he had to maintain contact for half a minute.
Nagasawa currently had about one million points in savings, so he generously directly bought the ticket to enter the One Piece world again.
However, this time, he no longer entered as Whitebeard, but as himself, Fujiwara Nagasawa, entering the One Piece world.
...
"Whitebeard Pirates Second Division Captain Fire Fist Ace defeated Beasts Pirates' Jack the Drought in the New World..." Garp sat on a leisure recliner, reading the latest newspaper, and could not help reading aloud.
"That brat is really causing bigger and bigger trouble. Isn't he afraid of being caught by the Navy again? At that time, I won't let that group of pirates succeed again." Although his mouth spoke no good words, a smile appeared on Garp's face.
This made the navy soldiers on his ship unable to help silently ridiculing him in their hearts. Before saying harsh words, can you close that mouth that is smiling so wide?
Of course, they only ridiculed him a little in their hearts. They still respected this somewhat unreliable Marine Hero superior of theirs very much.
Seeing his grandson defeat one of the Three Disasters, Jack, in the newspaper, Garp's mood greatly improved. He felt that today's tea and snacks were even tastier than usual.
However, while happy, Garp was also somewhat worried for Ace.
He was worried that Ace being so high-profile would cause the Navy to once again launch a plan targeting Ace.
After all, the Navy had previously broadcast to the entire world that they were going to execute Ace, this son of sin, but in the end, he escaped. After escaping, he was now still so high-profile. Was this not slapping the Navy's face?
Garp believed that Akainu, who was currently sitting in the office, definitely would not have a good expression after seeing today's newspaper.
After the Summit War, Sengoku took all of the Navy's failure onto himself, resigned, and submitted his resignation from the position of Fleet Admiral to the World Government's Commander-in-Chief Kong.
Kong agreed to Sengoku's resignation, but hoped that Sengoku and Garp would not directly leave the Navy and could instead cultivate new recruits for the Navy at the Navy Headquarters.
That's right, Garp had also resigned to Kong.
Garp was very aware of himself. Although he had not helped the pirates rescue Ace in the Summit War, he had passively fought and failed to play the role of a top expert. He had wronged the justice he carried on his back.
Kong did not agree to Garp's resignation. Such a powerful fighting force, how could he directly go home and retire like that? In Kong's eyes, Garp also had not committed any mistake. It was not as though he had directly helped the pirates.
However, in order to keep Garp, Kong said that Garp only needed to guard Navy Headquarters and train new recruits. As for various missions like going out to deal with great pirates, Garp could do as his mood dictated.
In order to make up for his own sins, Garp still stayed in the end, because the new Fleet Admiral, Akainu, had moved Navy Headquarters to the New World.
The predecessor of the new Navy Headquarters was the original Navy G1 Branch, located on the opposite side of the Red Line.
The New World was the territory of the Four Emperors, the paradise of pirates, and extremely dangerous, so Garp stayed. If someone wanted to attack Navy Headquarters, he could also use his iron fists to violently beat the attacking pirates.
Garp understood Akainu's personality. Ace merely being alive would make him feel unhappy. As long as there was a chance, Akainu would not let Ace go, because Akainu pursued absolute justice.
Ace was the son of the Pirate King, and the Pirate King was the culprit of the Great Pirate Era. On top of that, Ace was also a new star pirate who had shone brilliantly.
Under Akainu's absolute justice, such an Ace had to die.
Thinking of this, Garp sighed. Sure enough, it would have been good if Aokiji had won.
Compared to Akainu's absolute justice, Garp appreciated Aokiji's justice more.
Actually, before resigning, Sengoku had recommended to Kong that Aokiji become Fleet Admiral, and he also favored Aokiji more.
Unfortunately, Aokiji lost in the battle against Akainu. The two sides fought fiercely for ten days and ten nights. Aokiji lost a leg, and Akainu lost an ear.
So in the end, Akainu became Fleet Admiral.
"The New World really is chaotic. But the Whitebeard Pirates and Beasts Pirates fighting is also good. It should be beneficial to us Navy." The navy soldiers on the ship also began discussing.
These two Four Emperor crews had formed a grudge during the Summit War. Before the Summit War, Kaido had once attempted to lead the Beasts Pirates to attack the Whitebeard Pirates.
However, Kaido failed to succeed and was stopped by Shanks with his people.
Later, after successfully rescuing Ace and resting for a period of time, the Whitebeard Pirates launched retaliatory actions.
The Beasts Pirates did not have a good temper either, and were not afraid of Whitebeard's performance in the Summit War. If you hit me, I hit you too.
However, both sides temporarily had not launched a large-scale attack. It was only their subordinate forces competing with each other. Ace defeating one of the Three Disasters this time was already the biggest collision.
Garp felt that if this continued, it was only a matter of time before a full-scale battle broke out between the two Four Emperor crews.
The Whitebeard Pirates valued family. The Beasts Pirates had attempted to interfere with them rescuing Ace. There was no way this matter would simply be let go.
As for the Beasts Pirates, they were famously full of stubborn fools, and definitely would not be afraid of the Whitebeard Pirates.
The reason the two sides had not fully erupted into battle now might be because of Navy Headquarters, which had moved into the New World.
But if the situation continued developing, Garp did not think that group of pirates could maintain rationality.
If the two sides really fought, Garp was still more optimistic about the Whitebeard Pirates, because Whitebeard's performance in the Summit War was too fierce. It made even Garp feel that his fierceness was somewhat abnormal.
If Whitebeard could still display the strength from the Summit War period, he could definitely suppress Kaido.
If he could not, then...
Garp felt that it would be better if Whitebeard were fiercer. His grandson was still there as Second Division Captain.
Speaking of which, after the Summit War, he had gone home once. By chance, he saw that Dadan, who was usually afraid of him, was actually crazily cursing him, asking why he did not help Ace when Ace had almost been executed.
This surprised Garp a little. He had threatened Dadan quite a lot before to make her help with things, but for Ace and Luffy, Dadan actually dared to curse so fiercely, although she was not cursing him to his face.
Dadan herself did not notice the arriving Garp. Instead, her underlings saw him and frantically hinted, but unfortunately, their big sister still did not notice until she noticed Garp's shadow and suddenly discovered him, then instantly shut her mouth.
However, Garp felt guilty in his heart, so he did not do anything to Dadan and treated it as though nothing had happened.
He felt guilty toward the Navy, feeling that he did not deserve to carry justice. At the same time, he also felt that he had wronged Luffy and Ace. He could only watch helplessly as Ace was executed and watch Luffy advance with difficulty through the Navy formation.
"A pirate ship has been discovered ahead. There seems to be only one person on it."
Suddenly, the voice of a marine entered Garp's ears. Garp raised his head and looked into the distance. Sure enough, he saw a pirate ship.
Garp felt that this pirate had come at just the right time. He had just been thinking about annoying things, and a pirate came.
