Chapter 27: Shocking news! Shocked Sengoku!

Not long after, Kizaru took the few more seriously injured survivors and left the island first, sending them to the Marine base on the Sabaody Archipelago for treatment.

The other Marines were busy rescuing their companions.

They didn't notice that in one of the ruins on the island, a pair of eyes had been watching everything, even seeing the declaration of war Lin Xuan made to the Marines clearly!

This was a chubby man, holding a camera in his hand.

It turned out that this man was actually a reporter!

The Sabaody Archipelago had many media outlets like newspapers and magazines, and he was a reporter for one of them, and a rookie at that.

Others had fled in terror when the battle started, but this rookie reporter felt this might be a huge opportunity.

If he risked collecting some useful news material and published it, maybe he, a rookie, would become famous overnight.

As it turned out, he had a great harvest, and even the scene where Lin Xuan formally declared war on the Marines was seen by him, and he took the chance to record it!

"This... this is definitely huge news! I... I'm going to be rich!"

After the Marines left one after another, he slowly crawled out of the ruins, his face full of excitement and ecstasy: "If I report this, I will definitely become famous overnight and become the most well-known reporter!"

After the excitement, he immediately took several more photos and then carefully left the scene, fearing that if the Marines found him, he would be silenced!

Meanwhile, at Marine Headquarters, in the Fleet Admiral’s office.

"What did you say?!"

Sengoku listened to Kizaru’s report over the Den Den Mushi, his face stunned. After a long while, he said irritably: "Borsalino, you are becoming more and more outrageous. Making such jokes... have I been too lenient with you, giving you some bad misconceptions?"

On the other side of the Den Den Mushi, Kizaru couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing Sengoku’s words: "Fleet Admiral, if I could, I would also hope this was just a joke. However, everything I just said is true, without a hint of joking!"

"But, how is this possible?!" Sengoku still couldn't accept it.

Nine Pacifistas destroyed by the opponent in an instant!

Kizaru beaten up by the opponent!

Three Celestial Dragons taken away by the opponent in front of the Marines!

Each of these things was incredible, let alone all happening at once?

The most absurd thing was that Kizaru actually told him that the opponent threatened to fight them again in a month and take over the entire Sabaody Archipelago!

This was simply absurd!

However, all of this was a fact!

Kizaru spent a lot of effort to finally make Sengoku believe him.

Then, Sengoku realized that they were in big trouble!

Not to mention anything else, the three Celestial Dragons had been humiliated so much and then forcibly taken away. The Celestial Dragons would likely take the opportunity to make trouble and directly punish Kizaru and Sentomaru.

Kizaru and Sentomaru had fought to the death this time and were both severely injured, but the Celestial Dragons wouldn't care about that. They would only think that Kizaru and the others had failed, and it was entirely possible for them to be sentenced to death!

And even more serious was Lin Xuan’s declaration of war on their Marines, and even the entire World Government!

At this moment, he had to carefully consider how to deal with this.

Sengoku couldn't be sure if Lin Xuan’s words were just talk or if it was real.

If they mobilized troops and strictly guarded the Sabaody Archipelago, but the other party didn't come at all and was just playing with them, wouldn't the Marines be laughed at by the whole world?

But they couldn't do nothing. If Lin Xuan really brought a group of strong fighters to attack the Sabaody Archipelago in a month and they were unprepared, that would be an even bigger joke!

"Damn it, where did those two guys come from? Why give me such a difficult problem?" Sengoku felt more and more of a headache the more he thought about it.

However, he quickly made some decisions.

He immediately said to Kizaru: "Borsalino, you must immediately blockade the Sabaody Archipelago. The fact that the opponent took away the Celestial Dragons and declared war on us must be blocked. It must not be spread out to cause a world shock!"

Clearly, in his view, as long as the outside world didn't know the specific situation, no matter how they arranged things later, they could give a more decent explanation!

"Understood!" Kizaru promised solemnly, then hung up the phone and immediately went to handle it.

After hanging up, Sengoku immediately ordered his subordinates seriously: "Immediately summon all Admirals and Vice Admirals for a conference call! Fast!"

"Yes, Fleet Admiral!" The subordinate hurriedly obeyed.

He had also heard some news just now and understood the seriousness of the matter, so he wiped his sweat while hurriedly making calls.

Thus, Marine high-level officials distributed in different sea areas of the East Blue, West Blue, South Blue, and North Blue received the notification one after another, immediately putting down their work to participate in the emergency conference call.

On the Grand Line, on a calm sea, a massive wooden ship was sailing steadily.

On the ship were Lin Xuan and Uchiha Madara, who had just left the Sabaody Archipelago, along with the three Celestial Dragons.

If anyone who knew the Rosward family were here, they would be stunned.

Because these three Celestial Dragons, who were usually high and mighty, were now serving tea and water, doing things they would never have done before!

The reason they were doing this was naturally the result of Lin Xuan’s genjutsu control.

Besides them, there were a few other pirate-like people on the ship, busy steering and adjusting the sails to navigate the ship.

It turned out that after Lin Xuan and the others left the Sabaody Archipelago, they suddenly realized that no one on the ship knew how to sail, and there were no tools for cooking.

Fortunately, Uchiha Madara knew a little bit about steering, so they were able to set off smoothly.

Then, they were lucky enough to encounter another group of pirates at sea.

So Lin Xuan personally took action, used another genjutsu, and snatched the pirates' navigator, helmsman, and the like, as well as the ingredients and kitchen utensils on their ship, which led to the lively scene on the ship now!

At this moment, Uchiha Madara and Lin Xuan were sitting face to face on the floor.

After all, this big ship was just temporarily created by Uchiha Madara using Wood Release ninjutsu; he didn't think about creating any exquisite furniture on the ship!

Lin Xuan scanned Uchiha Madara and suddenly said: "Your Edo Tensei sacrifice won't last long, right!"

In fact, Edo Tensei seems immortal, but it is not without limitations. At the very least, the quality of the sacrifice used for reincarnation limits the strength of the reincarnated person. In addition, the activity of the sacrifice is constantly lost over time, which eventually makes the Edo Tensei effect worse and worse, and even fails.

In the Naruto world, one of the important reasons why White Zetsu is the most suitable sacrifice for Edo Tensei is because their vitality is extremely abundant, which can support Edo Tensei for a long time.

Lin Xuan had seen that Uchiha Madara’s randomly found sacrifice was failing after his battle with Kizaru, which was why he left the Sabaody Archipelago so quickly.

Of course, another reason was that he couldn't hold on much longer either!

After all, his body was different from Uchiha Madara’s Edo Tensei body. Uchiha Madara’s chakra was infinite, while he had just completed his initial transformation from an ordinary person.

Although he used various drugs to improve his body and spirit a hundredfold, it was still a bit difficult to support the Mangekyō Sharingan and activate the Full Body Susanoo for a long battle with only a hundredfold improvement.

Uchiha Madara glanced at Lin Xuan and said calmly: "Since you know, why don't you hurry up and tell me the secret you mentioned?"

Lin Xuan chuckled, took the food made by the pirate chef (who was also controlled by genjutsu) from the kitchen, and started eating.

As for Uchiha Madara, he was an Edo Tensei body, so he naturally didn't need to eat.

Lin Xuan ate heartily while saying to Uchiha Madara: "Madara, do you know that you have always been just a pawn in someone else’s hands?"

Hearing this, Uchiha Madara’s face sank, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes as he shouted in a deep voice: "So after all this, you just wanted to show off your ability to me?"

Clearly, he thought Lin Xuan meant that he could control him!

Lin Xuan laughed dumbly: "Don't get excited, I didn't treat you as a pawn, otherwise why would I be here telling you this? I mean, in your world, you have always been a pawn of someone else!"

"Ridiculous, that’s impossible!"

Uchiha Madara denied it without thinking, sneering repeatedly.

Lin Xuan grabbed a chicken leg, took a big bite, looked at Uchiha Madara, and said: "Do you think your schemes have played everyone in the world for fools, and that you, Uchiha Madara, are the mastermind behind the whole world?"

Uchiha Madara didn't speak, just stared at Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan shook his head repeatedly, suddenly looking at him with pity: "Tsk tsk tsk, it's a pity, you don't know that the Infinite Tsukuyomi plan you prepared for so long, thinking you could bring peace to your world, was just someone else deliberately giving you some wrong information and using you! Do you think the content on that family stone tablet you saw is true? It was all tampered with by someone!"

Uchiha Madara’s eyes flickered rapidly, quickly thinking about whether what Lin Xuan said was possible.

In his view, Lin Xuan knew too much, even knowing about the stone tablet, as if he had seen what he did with his own eyes.

He couldn't even imagine what means Lin Xuan used to see what he did in another world across different worlds!

Because of this, he was shaken: Could what he said be true? Was I, Uchiha Madara, really just being used by someone?

Of course, he couldn't believe Lin Xuan’s words immediately, but he didn't refute them either, instead asking directly: "Who is it? Who is the person you said is using me?!"

Lin Xuan calmly spat out two words: "Black Zetsu!"

"What?!" Uchiha Madara’s eyes widened, finally losing his composure!
