*Chapter 131: Could Jhin Also Have a System?*

Jhin's arrival was something no one expected, especially since Dressrosa hadn't invited anyone from the Beasts Pirates.

But considering that the other two major pirate crews had already made their appearances, seeing Jhin wasn’t all that surprising.

However, no one had ever seen someone act so full of themselves—stepping forward without a word, striking a pose like they were putting on a show.

His demeanor was one of arrogance, as if he looked down on everyone else.

Such an attitude naturally irritated those who saw it.

"Big shot from the Beasts Pirates. I didn’t think someone like you would show up."

"But no need to rest, I don't even need to break a sweat to deal with you!"

Mihawk retorted.

Although he had used up a lot of his strength, he wasn’t out of the fight yet.

Hawkeye was confident that dealing with this guy in front of him wouldn’t require much effort.

Even though Jhin’s bounty was over a billion Berries, in Mihawk's eyes, this guy wasn’t on the same level as Red-Haired Shanks.

And if Shanks wasn't a problem, then there was no need for Mihawk to go all out against this guy.

He didn’t need to. Mihawk knew that he was more than capable of defeating him as he was.

A mere Devil Fruit user wasn’t going to make him take a step back.

The number of Devil Fruit users who had fallen at Mihawk's hands was countless.

"Arrogant fool."

Jhin flapped his wings in the air, slowly descending onto the platform.

His gaze didn’t even land on Mihawk. He didn’t see Mihawk as someone worth his attention.

The title of "World's Greatest Swordsman" didn’t interest him much; he was just indulging his curiosity.

He wanted to see just how strong someone who had humiliated the Big Mom Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates really was.

If it came down to a fight between them, how would Jhin fare compared to the others?

He didn’t need to guess; he knew Mihawk was definitely stronger.

But still!

The other two pirate crews had lost at Mihawk’s hands.

So if Jhin defeated Mihawk now, wouldn’t that be a huge win for Kaido?

But that wasn't his main concern. He hadn’t even explained the real reason he came here.

"Uchiha Reijin! I ask you, where did those two people from Wano Country in Dressrosa come from?"

Jhin’s eyes turned towards Reijin.

His reason for coming to Dressrosa was because of those people from Wano.

When he learned that a few people in Dressrosa were once master swordsmiths of the Great Swords, he was intrigued.

Although Wano was now under their control, those master swordsmiths had disappeared, hiding their identities.

Jhin’s goal was to demand those people from Reijin and bring them back to Wano.

Regarding the people of Wano, both Kaido and Orochi were highly concerned.

Kaido wanted to wipe out every last remnant of the Kozuki family.

They hadn’t appeared on the sea until now, but Jhin suspected that these people might be connected to them.

"How dare you! Who do you think you are to question Lord Reijin here?"

Before Reijin could speak, three figures appeared on the battlefield.

One was Uchiha Tekka, who viewed Reijin as a god-like figure.

Another was Kakashi Hatake, whose body crackled with lightning as he stared at Jhin, with seemingly endless thunder rumbling behind him.

The sky above Dressrosa was filled with dark clouds, heavy with tension, ready to unleash at any moment.

The last figure was Uchiha Izumi, her eyes cold, her blood-red Sharingan seemingly marking Jhin’s death.

Someone dared to act so arrogantly in Dressrosa? Had they forgotten what happened to the last person who did that?

Or was this guy so out of touch that he knew nothing about Dressrosa?

Even so, Reijin was not someone any random person could just step up to.

"These fools..."

Even Jhin didn’t expect such a reaction, just from asking a question.

But that’s just how the Beasts Pirates operate, and Jhin didn’t see it as his fault.

It was just that these fools didn’t take the Beasts Pirates seriously.

A mere Shichibukai? Winning two fights doesn’t give you the right to speak.

That’s impossible—a rookie.

How could he compare to the real powerhouses of the sea?

"You all... do you want to go to war with the Beasts Pirates?"

Jhin’s gaze swept over the three of them.

Although they were unusual, none of them were strong enough to challenge Kaido.

This didn’t worry him at all. He even felt that Dressrosa was on the brink of destruction.

They were now sending out small fry to die.

Jhin could wipe them out instantly.

But the red-eyed girl was somewhat unique.

Those eyes...

There must be some strange secret in them.

After all, this group was part of a peculiar race.

"The Beasts Pirates? Ha!"

Uchiha Tekka couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

That laugh made Jhin’s face darken.

Was this guy mocking the Beasts Pirates?

"You Beasts Pirates are nothing. If you want to go to war with Dressrosa, you’ll have to wait until Lord Reijin is done dueling Big Mom."

"What a clueless fool. Do you pirates really have such small brains?"

"Or do you think Lord Reijin would be afraid of a lowly pirate like you?"

Tekka mocked Jhin, his words dripping with scorn.

Kaido’s reputation might be big, but to them, he was just a brute with thick skin.

As for the rest of his abilities, they saw nothing impressive.

To think he dared to insult Lord Reijin here.

He really didn’t know how he was going to die.

The continuous jeers brought the arena to life.

"Hey, hey, hey, Beasts Pirates! If you want to go to war with Dressrosa, get in line!"

"Hahahaha! The funniest joke of the year: these lowly Beasts Pirates!"

"I thought this guy was unbeatable, but who is this lackey?"

---

"I never expected Dressrosa to be so arrogant. They don’t back down even in the face of the great pirates of the sea, but this guy is really charismatic."

"I came to Dressrosa because I like this guy. I heard that this king, Raijin, even insulted the Navy and the World Government."

"So, the World Government and the Navy begged Raijin to become a Warlord of the Sea? The World Government doesn't seem all that impressive after all."

"Beast Pirates, if you’re not going to fight, then hurry up and get lost."

The audience in the arena burst into laughter, and some even threw things into the ring.

They didn’t care about the Beast Pirates anymore. The big shot of the Beast Pirates now seemed like a joke.

Even King Uchiha Raijin didn’t bother to respond personally, not even giving them a second glance.

They couldn’t believe this guy had a bounty of a billion berries. It was just unbelievable to them.

The most critical thing is...

Does this guy have no brains?

Didn’t he notice that two important Navy figures are sitting in the audience in Dressrosa? Just those two alone could smash his face in if he dared to say one more arrogant word.

"Great! You guys are just great!"

There was a hint of anger on Jin's face.

The flames behind him suddenly flared up, and his wings grew longer.

In an instant, he entered his Zoan Devil Fruit hybrid form.

"Tsk, tsk, I didn’t expect anyone to dare cause trouble in Dressrosa."

"I thought that Smoozie was asking for death, but now there’s another one."

A calm voice suddenly echoed in the audience.

Jin’s gaze was immediately drawn to Zephyr and Garp, who were sitting together.

Jin froze. What are these two doing here?

And they’re watching a pirate tournament? Shouldn’t they be capturing pirates?

Why do they look like they’re on vacation?

"Kid, if you want to fight, get on with it. But if you mess up our viewing, you’d better be ready for Kaido to come pick you up personally."

Garp raised his fist and shouted at Jin.

Seeing Jin's hesitation, everyone now knew that Jin was someone who bullied the weak but feared the strong.

After all, not many people on the sea don’t respect Garp!

After all, Garp and Zephyr are legends!

And they were from the same generation as Pirate King Roger.

An old man who’s still alive and shameless at that.

Jin was left speechless by Garp’s direct insult.

Mihawk, on the other hand, smirked as he watched Jin make a fool of himself.

He hadn’t challenged Raijin yet because there was a queue.

He didn’t expect the Beast Pirates to try and cut in line. Many people wouldn’t like that.

Even Mihawk wasn’t too happy about it.

At the very least, they should wait until he’s defeated before lining up behind him.

Or they could beat him and stand in front of him.

"Uchiha Raijin, are you hiding behind the Navy?"

"How about we make a bet?"

"Bet on whether I or Mihawk will win!"

Jin was sweating profusely, desperately trying to find a way out.

After all, none of these guys in front of him were easy to deal with.

If Kaido himself showed up, he’d probably get beaten up too.

Damn it!

Why didn’t Jack explain things clearly?

What’s Jack doing? Why didn’t he report the situation in Dressrosa properly?

With so many strong people in Dressrosa, he’s made me look like a fool!

"What's the bet?"

Raijin's voice echoed down.

But he felt a little strange.

After all, breaking the deadlock with a bet is usually the protagonist's move.

The protagonist makes a bet and then wins...

Does Jin have some kind of system?

"If I win, we Beast Pirates will take those people from Wano Country!"

"And if I lose..."

Jin hesitated, unable to come up with a concrete idea.

After all, the Beast Pirates' matters couldn’t be casually used as betting stakes.

Right now, he didn’t know what he could offer.

"If you lose, why not become a test subject here in Dressrosa?"

"After all... I believe you’re the last of the Lunarian race, right? I’m very interested in you."

Raijin, sitting above, turned his head slightly to look at Jin, smiling.

The Lunarian race is almost extinct; Jin might be the last one.

Even if there are others, they’re probably hiding in some corner.

Raijin was planning to see if he could extract something valuable from Jin.

"How... how do you know that?"

Behind his mask, beads of sweat were forming on Jin's face as he stared intently at Raijin.

He hadn’t expected Raijin to see through his identity so easily.

This guy probably knows something.

But!

"I accept!"

Jin nodded without much hesitation.

There’s no need to hesitate over something like this!

After all, it’s not the Beast Pirates' interests that are at stake.

It’s just his personal interests.

He’s been captured by Vegapunk as a test subject more than once.

Vegapunk has probably already figured out all his secrets.

"Very well! Then I’ll temporarily forgive your stupidity!"

"Uchiha Fire Formation!"

Raijin called out softly.

In an instant!

Several Uchiha clan ninjas appeared in the arena.

These ninjas were all elite!

They stood in different corners, forming hand seals rapidly.

Boom!

The next moment!

A barrier rose, stretching high into the sky.

The audience was so shocked they couldn’t speak for a moment.

They hadn’t expected Dressrosa to have such a technique.

"Is this what ninjas can do? It’s quite interesting."

Crocodile’s eyes flashed with surprise as he looked at the nearly transparent barrier.

Crocodile really wanted to reach out and touch it, but his instincts told him it was extremely dangerous.

He’d never seen anything like this since he set sail; only these ninjas could create such a thing.

Interesting!

"Ninja techniques, huh? I didn’t expect Dressrosa to have so many tricks up their sleeve."

Vista looked on in amazement at the Fire Formation in front of him.

He glanced at the Uchiha clan ninjas standing around, forming seals with their hands.

If they attacked these ninjas, the barrier would likely fall apart.

But the people inside would have a hard time harming those outside.

These ninjas probably weren’t as simple as they seemed.

"Zephyr, why didn’t you tell me about this?"

Garp was stunned, his jaw nearly dropping at the sight of the Uchiha Fire Formation in front of him.

He hadn’t expected these ninjas to wield more than just a little power.

Who knows what other techniques they have?

"Ahem! I thought you guys would’ve found out about this small thing by now."

Zephyr coughed lightly, lying through his teeth.

He didn’t know about this technique, so how could he have told Garp?

But they hadn’t encountered any overwhelmingly strong opponents yet!

This kind of ninjutsu probably wouldn’t have had a chance to be used.

"By the way, Zephyr, what kind of ninja techniques do you know?"

Garp asked curiously, looking at Zephyr with interest.

But Zephyr always kept it a secret, never revealing anything to Garp.

"Oh, that? It’s a secret!"

Zephyr smiled mysteriously, shaking his head at Garp.

It’s not really ninjutsu, more like a martial art.

Once he masters this martial art...

It’ll be a force to be reckoned with.

At that time...

Mihawk, too, was surprised as the barrier rose around them.

In their previous battles, there was no such thing. What is Raijin up to?

"The stage is set for you two. This barrier will protect those around you, but touching it will cause it to burst into flames."

"So, feel free to go all out! Just don’t fly out through the opening at the top."

"If you fly out through the top, you’ll be considered forfeiting. You can use any means necessary, not limited to swordsmanship. That’s the only rule!"

"Mihawk, as a Warlord of the Sea, I don’t want to see you bring down the reputation of the Warlords."

"If you lose, you’ll stay in Dressrosa and work for us, and forget about being a Warlord of the Sea."

Raijin’s voice echoed!

Both men immediately understood.

This battle was going to be more intense than any before.

After all, with this setup, only one of them could walk away.

It was different before. With the limited space, they had to think about ending the fight quickly!

But now, they could unleash their full power.

"Begin!"

Before Mihawk could respond, the signal to start was given!

Jin wasted no time, flying into the air, the flames behind him shrinking until they disappeared.

His figure grew even larger!

Only shadows could be seen flashing through the sky.

Since Raijin said there were no limits on tactics...

Jin wouldn’t stick to swordsmanship.

If he could finish this quickly, that would be best.
