Being able to resurrect Ace naturally means that other people can also be resurrected, but the number of White Zetsu clones on Orochimaru's side is relatively scarce.
The containers for Edo Tensei need a certain amount of time to accumulate more, in order to resurrect all the Whitebeard Pirate crew members who died in the War at the Top.
But it's not necessarily all of them.
After all, there will always be some pirates whose bodies are buried at the bottom of the sea, and it is impossible to obtain the body cells of these people.
At the same time, people like Thatch and Little Oars, who are rather special, currently have no way to use Edo Tensei.
Because the original fourth division captain Thatch has been dead for over a year, his body is buried somewhere in the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates.
To obtain his body cells, his grave would have to be dug up.
Little Oars is too large, his soul is definitely much larger than ordinary people.
Orochimaru needs to cultivate a very large White Zetsu clone to carry such a large soul, in order to use Edo Tensei on Little Oars.
But these are not difficult points, they can be solved with a little time.
After all...
Shinobi World technology.
It's mind-blowing.
Orochimaru must have some common language with people like Vegapunk and Caesar.
...
Today, the Whitebeard Pirates once again welcomed a banquet.
This banquet is naturally a banquet to welcome Ace back to the world.
The entire pirate crew is very lively.
In fact, since the Whitebeard Pirates returned to the pirate world, the banquets on the ship have basically never stopped.
"Dun dun dun dun dun - Ha!!!"
Jozu, holding a wine jar in one hand, drank more than twenty barrels of strong alcohol in one breath, his face flushed.
He was telling a group of kids about the cruelty of the War at the Top: "This arm of mine was taken off by a Marine admiral called Aokiji, it was also because I was careless at the time, otherwise, I would never have lost an arm!"
Jozu laughed heartily with a row of white teeth: "You kids, each of you is like a bean, you need to eat more Sea King meat! Otherwise, with your thin arms and thin legs, how are you going to fight the enemy in the future?"
"If you grow five or six meters tall, wait forget it... that's too tall." Shikamaru sat cross-legged on the deck, his world-weary face twitched.
Imagining himself growing that tall.
Shikamaru shivered all over.
Wouldn't he be unable to marry a wife by then?
Lee stuttered, "That... you... your muscles are so strong, you must be a Taijutsu master, right?"
"Oh? Hahahaha! You little brat, your eyesight is pretty good!" Jozu laughed heartily: "My Taijutsu is one of the best on the ship!"
Jozu boasted about his "achievements" from the past: "Once I arm wrestled with Ace, this kid couldn't hold on for even a minute, and was pushed down by me!"
Lee's eyes were almost shining: "Then... then..."
He hesitated for a long time, finally plucked up the courage, bowed to Jozu and shouted, "Then can you take me as a disciple? I want to learn stronger Taijutsu, for this, I... I can also join the Whitebeard Pirates!"
During his time on the Moby Dick, Lee knew very well that his strength was seriously insufficient.
At the same time, he was deeply attracted to the family atmosphere of the Whitebeard Pirates.
As an orphan from the Konohagakure village, the family atmosphere of the Whitebeard Pirates is a fatal temptation for Lee.
Jozu raised an eyebrow: "Thick-browed kid, our Whitebeard Pirates are not a kindergarten!"
When Lee had a look of disappointment on his face, Jozu suddenly changed his tone: "But... hahaha! I really appreciate your straightforward character!"
Jozu patted Lee on the shoulder, and this big hand slapped down, directly knocking Lee to the deck.
"Hahaha! You can join my third divison! Thick-browed kid! I remember you seem to be called Rock Lee, right?"
Lee's eyes widened instantly.
"Yes!!!"
...
"Ice Release: Freezing Capsule Technique!!!"
Haku is performing Ninjutsu from the Shinobi World for a group of old Whitebeard Pirates, and it's even the Ice Release Kekkei Genkai Ninjutsu.
Haku flicked his finger and shot out a small freezing capsule, landing on the Fishman Namur who didn't dodge.
Namur was instantly turned into an ice sculpture.
But the next second, cracks appeared on the surface of the ice sculpture.
Namur easily broke free.
"She really can control 'ice'!" Feeling the cold sensation remaining on the surface of his skin, Namur exclaimed, "It's almost exactly like the ability of that Marine admiral!"
Izo leaned against the wall and laughed, "Pops' daughters are all gifted, if this child is heavily cultivated, she might become the next Aokiji."
Haku quietly explained, "Um, actually I'm a boy..."
Izo: "???"
Izo didn't expect that he, who looks like a girl, would mistake another boy for a girl.
Usually, only he would be mistaken for a girl by others.
But he didn't expect to make such a mistake today.
Izo rubbed his chin and muttered, "How can there be such a cute boy, even cuter than me when I was young..."
Haku modestly said, "Maybe after Pops saw me, he thought of you, Uncle Izo, so he took me as his son."
Izo waved his hand, "Hey hey hey, you little guy don't belittle yourself, Pops took you as his son because you're good enough! It has nothing to do with me!"
Haku was taken aback, he found these uncles were quite easy to get along with.
Each of them has a very good personality.
...
"Hyuga Neji, Hyuga Hinata, it sounds a bit like the names from the Wano Country!"
Ace curiously looked at Neji and Hinata's pair of white eyes, he wondered, "Are your eyes naturally this color?"
Hinata weakly nodded, "Yes, this is our Hyuga clan's Kekkei Genkai, called - Byakugan. These eyes can see objects more than a kilometer away, and even see through."
Ace was instantly amazed, "It sounds like a Devil Fruit ability!"
He became more curious, "Can your eyes really see through?"
Neji calmly said, "It's not exactly seeing through, Byakugan's seeing through can only see a person's meridians and bones, and a rough outline of a person's body."
Neji paused, then continued, "But, as long as you're careful, you can also guess what kind of physical features a person's body surface will have based on the rough outline."
Ace's eyes widened, he stood up and turned around, excitedly asking, "Can you see through to see what features my body has?"
Hinata turned her head away and dared not look with her Byakugan.
Neji did look with his Byakugan, and then calmly said, "Your body hair seems to be rather sparse."
As a result, Ace didn't know what the word "shy" meant at all.
All he had in his eyes was amazement and joy, "What a powerful ability!"
Neji took the initiative to ask, "I heard... you're a Logia type Devil Fruit user? Logia, what does that mean?"
"This... haha, I'm not particularly clear, probably means the power of nature!"
Ace smiled and spread out a hand, the palm turned into a ball of flame.
Even with the Edo Tensei body, he still has the fruit ability.
"Let me show you!"
Ace was a bit itchy, he smiled and aimed at the distant sea, and punched out into the air.
"Fire Fist!!!"
A large wave of raging flames surged forward, covering the sky and the earth.
Neji's pupils contracted.
Hinata was dumbfounded.
...
"This ability is more convenient than Kamui..." Kakashi looked at the Pocket Fruit user "Blamenco" pulling out a huge hammer from the pocket on his neck, he made a comment.
Seeing Blamenco effortlessly pulling out all kinds of things from his pocket...
Kakashi felt this ability was much more convenient than Kamui.
It doesn't seem to require physical strength.
And it doesn't need to consume eye power, there's no risk of vision decline.
"Lumamama!" Blamenco, who was almost as round as a ball, laughed, "It's just more convenient to take things out, your 'Kamui' involves the power of space!"
Obviously, both of them had shown their abilities.
And they were still praising each other.
Just as Kakashi was about to say something, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a small figure flying over from the corner of his eye. With one look, Kakashi knew it was Naruto.
He didn't catch him.
Kakashi silently took a step back, and then Naruto brushed past him and flew to the side, hitting the wall hard.
"Ouch! That hurts!"
Naruto, holding his head, complained to Kakashi, "Uncle Kakashi, why didn't you catch me!"
Kakashi shrugged, "I think it's better not to delay your 'recruitment'."
Pitter-patter, pitter-patter...
The sound of footsteps came, and Katakuri came over with an expressionless face. He was a bit helpless, "Kid, can't you be a little quieter? You're attacking me while eating a donut?"
Naruto wiped the blood from his nose, and grinned, "My ninja way is to do what I say! I said I would recruit you two, so I must do it!"
"Big fox, lend me some chakra!"
Kurama rolled his eyes, but thinking that he could see this kid get beaten up, Kurama happily lent him some.
Naruto instantly entered the half-tailed beast mode.
"Rasengan!!!"
Katakuri sighed, Armament Haki wrapped around his black boots, Observation Haki predicted Naruto's attack point in advance, and he kicked it out in advance.
Naruto's Rasengan didn't even hit Katakuri's body, his face made intimate contact with the bottom of the boot.
He was kicked and flew out.
"Come again!!!"
But he was not discouraged, he even considered getting beaten up as a kind of special training.
Kakashi, with his dead fish eyes open, said, "Kids are really full of energy!"
…
"Are these long legs really exist in the real world…"
Tsunade couldn't help but rub Smoothie's long legs back and forth.
The smooth and delicate touch made her face full of envy, "What should I do to have such long legs…"
Smoothie, with her legs crossed, subtly moved her leg.
This blonde woman had a smitten expression on her face…
It made her a little suspicious of the other's sexual orientation.
Smoothie responded, "It's natural, my father is from the Longleg Tribe."
"Longleg Tribe?" Shizune, who was holding Tonton next to her, was surprised, "Is there such a race in this world?"
Smoothie's fingertips traced over her light purple lipstick.
She laughed softly, "There are many races in the sea! Longleg Tribe, Longarm Tribe, Giant Tribe, Dwarf Tribe, Longneck Tribe… it's simply countless."
Tsunade reluctantly took her sinful hand back.
She asked, "Are all these different races human?"
"Yes." Smoothie nodded, "Although the physical forms of different races vary greatly, they are indeed all human."
Tsunade became interested, "Is the structure inside their bodies the same as normal people?"
Just after asking this question.
Tsunade curiously looked at Smoothie's special body.
Smoothie's mouth twitched, "I don't know… but don't get any ideas, I don't want to be dissected right now. Whitebeard never said that we joined you to be lab rats."
…
...
"Fire Release: Super Great Fireball Jutsu!!!"
Sasuke opened his mouth and sprayed a huge Great Fireball Jutsu at Marco, only to see Marco not dodge or avoid, and took the Great Fireball Jutsu with his flesh.
The key is that Marco's body was unharmed, the flames of the fireball had no effect on Marco.
"Kid, aren't you a bit too obsessed with getting stronger?"
Marco laughed, "You pulled me to the banquet, and ask me to accompany you in training, you're quite enthusiastic!"
In the midst of speaking, Marco suppressed his own speed, instantly appeared in front of Sasuke, and struck down with a knife-hand strike.
The reason for suppressing his speed was because he was afraid that if he was too fast, this little guy wouldn't be able to react.
Sasuke hurriedly dodged Marco's attack.
At the same time, he responded with a serious face, "Because I want to kill a man, in order to kill him with my own hands! I must become stronger! I must become stronger at all times! I can't waste time!"
"Oh?" Marco easily blocked the shuriken thrown by Sasuke, "It seems like you carry quite a few stories on your back! Can you tell me, who do you want to kill?"
After using the "Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique" at Marco, Sasuke finally answered, "Uchiha Itachi!"
Marco was surprised, "Uchiha Itachi? I remember your last name is also Uchiha, isn't it? Who is he?"
"...My older brother."
Sasuke took a deep breath, "He killed my father and mother, he killed almost all the members of the Uchiha clan, he is a murderer , and also a sinner of the Uchiha."
Marco was taken aback.
"I'm sorry." After dodging Sasuke's attack, a hand gently pressed on Sasuke's head, he apologized, "Did I accidentally open your wound?"
"It doesn't matter, I need the people around me to constantly remind me, so that I can always remember this hatred."
Sasuke said.
...
The new Whitebeard Pirate crew and the old Whitebeard Pirate crew are constantly integrating, contacting, and getting to know each other.
And the atmosphere seems pretty good.
At least Whitebeard feels satisfied.
