Uchiha Shisui (concerned): "Did Uchiha Itachi really die at Sasuke's hands in the end? And did Sasuke take revenge on Konoha?"
Lucas: "Good question! But first, pay up for the information."
Uchiha Shisui: "??? What?"
Lucas: "Not hard to understand, is it? We live in an age where knowledge costs money. Intel isn't free."
Pirate King Roger: "What the hell is wrong with the ninjas from the Ninja World? Why are you all so hesitant? Just fork over the World Pass already!"
Golden Lion Shiki : "Shihahaha! Roger, are you planning a little otherworldly tourism?"
Pirate King Roger: "Hahaha! Busted! Can't a guy be curious?"
Whitebeard: "Tch. Even in death, you're still looking for adventures."
Doflamingo: "Fufufufu~ Well, it's another world, after all. Who wouldn't want to take a peek? I'd like to see it too."
Lucas: "Honestly, the people of the Ninja world and the Pirate world are polar opposites. Pirates? Decisive. Ninjas? Hesitant."
Senju Tobirama: "It's not hesitation. We have our own considerations. As the dead, we shouldn't interfere with the world of the living."
Whitebeard: "Bullshit! What does being dead have to do with anything? You think I'd just sit back and watch my sons suffer without doing something?!"
Golden Lion Shiki: "Shihahaha! Whitebeard, they're different from us. The people in the Ninja World are obsessed with sacrificing themselves for their ideals. One of those ideals? The dead shouldn't interfere with the living."
Pirate King Roger: "Sounds like a load of crap. Inaction is just as bad as making the wrong decision."
Senju Tobirama : "And your decisiveness brought chaos to the world and left your own son in pain. What's so great about that?"
Pirate King Roger : "Better than you! Your whole clan was wiped out, and you still did nothing!"
Lucas: "Alright, enough. You're both equally bad. If you hesitate, you lose. If you act without thinking, you die for nothing. Most of the spirits in this chat fall into one of these two categories."
The chat fell silent.
Lucas: "Seriously though, Ninja world folks—do none of you care about what's happening in your world? Does it not matter that your granddaughter is in danger? That the Uchiha Clan was wiped out? That Kirigakure is on the brink of collapse? That your own son is being mistreated?"
Senju Hashirama: "…"
Senju Tobirama: "…"
Namikaze Minato: "…"
Uchiha Shisui: "…"
Gengetsu Hōzuki: "…"
Lucas: "Ugh, a bunch of useless ghosts. @Uchiha Madara, looks like it's up to you."
Uchiha Madara: "Why are you asking me?! I'm the last person who wants you to go to the Ninja world! I've spent years setting up a grand plan over there—how the hell am I supposed to execute it if you interfere?!"
Lucas: "Because your soul is in my hands. If I don't go to the Ninja world, then no jutsu can resurrect you. Your soul is missing."
Madara's eyes widened.
Uchiha Madara: "…What do you know?"
Lucas: "Everything. Infinite Tsukuyomi. The truth behind it. Whether you want to execute Eye of the Moon Plan or find out if it's a lie, you need me to go to the Ninja World."
Madara fell silent.
There was no way to verify Lucas' words. But at the same time… he couldn't afford to take the risk.
After a long pause—
Ding!
[Uchiha Madara has sent an exclusive red packet: (World Pass – Ninja World) to Group Leader Lucas.]
Senju Hashirama : "Madara! What is Infinite Tsukuyomi?! What is Eye of the Moon Plan?! You never told me anything about this!"
Senju Tobirama : "Looks like Madara had more plans than we thought… And from the way the group leader speaks, Madara is waiting for his resurrection."
Senju Hashirama: "Nani?! Madara! We're spirits! We're not supposed to interfere in the world of the living!"
Uchiha Madara (scoffing): "Says who? That's your rule, not mine. I never said I wouldn't interfere just because I'm dead."
Senju Hashirama: "…"
Uchiha Madara: "Besides, if I'm revived, then I won't be dead. So there's nothing wrong with interfering as a living person, now is there?"
Senju Hashirama : "…"
As the chat continued to discuss, Lucas didn't hesitate.
He activated the World Pass.
The time had come to leave the pirate world and step into another stage.
Ninja World – Konoha Village
Near the Naka River, the infamous location where Uchiha Shisui had taken his own life, a sudden distortion in space signaled Lucas' arrival from the Pirate World to the Ninja World.
Inside the chat group—
Uchiha Shisui : "This is Naka River! The Uchiha Clan's district is nearby!"
Lucas : "Oh really? Then let's head over and see if they're all dead yet."
Activating his top-tier Observation Haki, Lucas swiftly located the Uchiha compound and began making his way there.
Uchiha Madara: "They pushed the Uchiha all the way to the edge of the village… It seems the suppression was worse than I thought."
Gengetsu Hōzuki: "It's worse than that. The Uchiha aren't just on the outskirts—they're completely surrounded by other ninja clans. No wonder Itachi believed their coup would fail. Anyone with half a brain would see the odds weren't in their favor."
Uchiha Shisui: "I never understood it! Konoha made their hostility toward the Uchiha blatantly obvious—how did my clan think they could successfully overthrow them?"
Senju Tobirama: "Oh, poor you. At least the Uchiha still exist. The Senju Clan is completely gone. Who do I even complain to?"
Uchiha Shisui: "Fair point… But still, Group Leader, please… Save the Uchiha Clan!"
Lucas sneered.
Lucas: "Why should I? Weren't you all preaching about how the dead shouldn't interfere with the living? Well, I'm just doing what you wanted."
Uchiha Shisui: "Wait—you're just going to let them die?!"
Lucas: "No, I'm not interested in watching their pointless struggle. Instead, I'm going to grant you true peace."
A chill ran through the chat group.
Senju Tobirama: "What exactly do you mean by that?"
Lucas: "Simple. If there are no ninjas in the world, then there will be no ninja wars. No war = peace. So I'll start in Konoha and wipe out every single ninja."
Senju Hashirama: "Damn it! Calm down! You need to calm down!!"
Senju Tobirama: "Group Leader, that's not funny!"
Unlike the others in the chat group, Hashirama and Tobirama had been around longer and understood Lucas' terrifying strength.
And they knew… he was serious.
If Lucas made a move, no one in the Ninja World could stop him.
Unless a new monster as strong as Hashirama or Madara was born, Lucas could do whatever he wanted.
Lucas : "What's wrong? Are you two going to stop me? I thought you said the dead shouldn't interfere with the living. What's this? A sudden change of heart?"
Seeing no other option, Hashirama gritted his teeth and made a decision.
Ding!
[Senju Hashirama has sent an exclusive red packet: (Sage Body – Top) to Group Leader Lucas.]
Lucas grinned.
Lucas: "Not enough."
Ding!
[Senju Hashirama has sent an exclusive red packet: (Ninja Talent – Top).]
[Senju Hashirama has sent an exclusive red packet: (Wood Style Mastery).]
[Senju Hashirama has sent an exclusive red packet: (Sage Arts Mastery).]
[Senju Hashirama has sent an exclusive red packet: (Summoning Technique – Rashomon).]
Senju Hashirama: "That's all I've got. Happy now?"
Lucas: "You're good, but the others? Not enough."
With no other choice, Tobirama sighed and reluctantly handed over—
Ding!
[Senju Tobirama has sent an exclusive red packet: (Water Style Encyclopedia).]
[Senju Tobirama has sent an exclusive red packet: (Forbidden Technique Encyclopedia).]
Ding!
[Uchiha Shisui has sent (Mangekyō Sharingan – Kotoamatsukami).]
[Uchiha Shisui has sent (Body Flicker Mastery).]
[Uchiha Shisui has sent (Uchiha Fire Style Mastery).]
As they watched their hard-earned skills being transferred away, the three of them regretted everything.
If they had just given Lucas the World Pass earlier, they wouldn't be getting robbed blind right now.
And they knew exactly who to blame.
It was that traitor, Uchiha Madara, who let Lucas into the Ninja World!
Lucas : "For the sake of your sincerity, I'll let you off the hook this time. @Gengetsu Hōzuki, @Uchiha Madara, you two aren't going to contribute?"
Gengetsu Hōzuki (grumbling): "Tch. When you get to Kirigakure, I'll consider it. Right now, I don't even know what the place looks like."
Lucas : "Fine by me. Not like you have anything valuable anyway."
Gengetsu Hōzuki: "…" (Did I just get insulted?!)
Lucas turned his attention to Madara.
Lucas: "And you, Madara? Nothing to share?"
Uchiha Madara : "Tch. You know too much. I regret ever letting you enter the Ninja World."
Lucas: "Too late for regrets. The moment you let me in, you lost your gamble."
Madara fell silent.
Everything Lucas said was true.
Lucas: "You won't hand over any skills? Fine. I don't need them. But I have to ask—how's Nagato doing? Still holding onto your Rinnegan?"
Madara's expression darkened.
Uchiha Madara: "You…! You know about that too?!"
Lucas: "Of course. Let me guess—you were planning to revive yourself using the Rinnegan, right? But now that I'm here… you're wondering if I'll ruin your plans."
Madara gritted his teeth.
Lucas: "Admit it, Madara. You thought you were in control… but you're just playing catch-up."
Madara remained silent.
He had never felt this level of frustration before.
Uchiha Madara : "Tch. I won't give you anything."
Unlike the others, Madara wasn't willing to hand over his techniques to a potential enemy.
Instead—he was ready to fight.
Lucas could feel it—Uchiha Madara wasn't just watching anymore.
He was preparing.
Preparing for the moment he could finally be resurrected… and challenge Lucas to dance himself.
