chapter 37

Mu Feng emerged victorious! In fact, even before Mu Feng took on all seven Warlords of the Sea simultaneously, Sengoku and Garp were prepared for his defeat.

However, Sengoku would never allow Mu Feng to lose. It would be a serious blow to the Marine's reputation if he did. Therefore, Sengoku had ordered Garp to intervene and end the battle as soon as Mu Feng showed any signs of weakness. But Garp never got the chance to act.

Throughout the battle, Mu Feng had the clear upper hand, defeating the Seven Warlords of the Sea in a dominating fashion.

Mu Feng's victory caused great excitement among the Marines at the Naval Headquarters.

"Remember what you said... Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite," Mu Feng lightly smiled as he glanced at the defeated Shichibukai.

However, the Marines paid little attention to Mu Feng's words. From their perspective, Mu Feng was simply warning the Shichibukai to behave, or else he would cause trouble for them.

Little did they know that after this battle, the Seven Warlords of the Sea would become Mu Feng's subordinates.

Of course, Mu Feng understood that the loyalty of these subordinates might not be guaranteed. If he couldn't demonstrate enough deterrence, then characters like Moria, Doflamingo, and Crocodile among the Shichibukai would not obey him.

But Mu Feng didn't expect blind obedience from them anyway.

His purpose in subduing them was simply to fulfill a task given by the system.

Compared to gaining a few more subordinates with their own agendas, Mu Feng believed it was more important to focus on improving his own strength. At this moment, the familiar voice of the system echoed in his mind: "Congratulations to the Host for completing the side task: conquer the Seven Warlords of the Sea. As a reward, the Host will receive a Ten Thousand Worlds Character Ability Card. The reward has been deposited in the Host's space backpack. Please check it carefully."

The reward had arrived! Mu Feng's eyes lit up with anticipation.

Without further ado, he left without engaging in further conversation with the defeated Shichibukai. Sengoku and Garp, who had just rushed over from the marshal's office, followed suit.

[Item: Ten Thousand Worlds Character Ability Card]

[Type: Wonderful Object]

[Quality: Nine stars]

[Remarks: This card allows the extraction of any character's abilities from different worlds and universes. The abilities can be added to oneself. To use, simply crush the ability card of the desired character.]

Mu Feng couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement. A nine-star quality item must be something extraordinary.

Without hesitation, he crushed the Ten Thousand Worlds Character Ability Card. Like fragile glass, it shattered into countless pieces, transforming into shimmering green lights that merged into Mu Feng's body.

Mu Feng was aware of which character's abilities he had acquired.

The Ninja God - Senju Hashirama!

Born in the Sengoku era, he single-handedly subdued the nine-tailed beasts, bringing an end to the chaotic world and establishing Konoha Village. He was hailed as Senju Hashirama, a legendary figure akin to the Sage of Six Paths.

Mu Feng extended his palm, and a green sapling sprouted from it. This was Senju Hashirama's Wood Style ability. With a single thought, Mu Feng knew all the abilities he had acquired from Senju Hashirama.

Basic Ninjutsu [Max Level] [Proficiency: 100%]

Wood Style Ninjutsu [Max Level] [Proficiency: 100%]

Fairy Body [Level 7] [Proficiency: 0%]

Sage Art Wood Style [Level 7] [Proficiency: 100%] [Level limited to Fairy Body]

These were the abilities possessed by Senju Hashirama. How powerful were they? Mu Feng wasn't entirely sure, but he couldn't help but think of the fearsome Sage Art Wood Style: True Number Senju, a power that rivaled even Whitebeard during the Battle on the Top. Although Whitebeard's body was aged and perhaps no longer able to bear the title of the world's strongest man, he was still one of the Four Emperors.

In other words, Senju Hashirama possessed the power of a Four Emperor!

If Mu Feng were to display Senju Hashirama's abilities, he could easily become a Marine Admiral.

However, Mu Feng didn't have such intentions. He had already demonstrated a remarkable level of strength. If he were to showcase such a terrifying ability like Wood Style, it would undoubtedly raise suspicions among the Five Elders. Although Mu Feng wasn't easily swayed, he still wanted to maintain his position within the Marines. He wasn't ready to give up on that just yet.

Moreover, by utilizing Ninjutsu's Transformation Technique and Wood Clone, he would have plenty of room for manipulation. He could easily play multiple roles, be it an enemy or a friend, a pirate or a Marine, or even a member of the Revolutionary Army.

"Hey... this world is going to become interesting," Mu Feng muttered to himself.

"Lieutenant General Mu Feng, 'The Empress' from the Shichibukai is looking for you," a messenger's voice suddenly sounded outside Mu Feng's house.
