"But... Elder Sister, this is the third time. If we provoke the World Government like this, I'm afraid when the time comes..."
Hearing this, the Empress glared at Sandersonia.
"The World Government are the Celestial Dragons' lackeys. Now they want to recruit me to work for them? They must be dreaming!"
"But, the World Government has mastered the ability to navigate the Calm Belt..."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I'm tired. Prepare my bath!"
Hearing this, Sandersonia and Marigold gritted their teeth, having no choice but to give up.
How could the Empress not know the consequences? But she just couldn't swallow her anger. Why should she?
She had finally escaped the clutches of the Celestial Dragons, and now she had to be a lackey for the World Government?
"Damn World Government..."
A moment later, a bell rang.
That was the signal for the masses to disperse.
In just a few minutes, all the residents of Kuja Castle had left, and the Empress began her bath alone.
Thinking about the Seven Warlords, the Empress couldn't help but grit her teeth.
Clang! Clang! Clang!!
When the bell to disperse rang, Rex, who was currently in the Bath Palace, felt his pupils shrink, a bit speechless.
"Holy crap... the bell? No way, is my luck really this good!?"
With about five minutes left, the Empress is going to take a bath?
Can't you wait a bit?
Rex was a little panicked, pacing back and forth in the Bath Palace, his expression suddenly hardening.
"Wait... why am I panicking? Shouldn't she be the one panicking if she comes in naked?"
—
Besides... can she beat me?
"No, I can't fight here... If I unleash the King's Treasure recklessly, the Bath Palace might be blown away. If it affects the check-in, that would be bad. I'd better avoid a confrontation for now!"
If push comes to shove, I'll just bind the Empress with the Chains of Heaven. Thinking this, Rex hid behind a stone pillar.
Checking the time, there were three minutes left. That should be enough!
A moment later, the Empress, having shed her clothes, slowly walked into the Bath Palace.
The steam and mist couldn't hide that touch of spring.
However, the Empress seemed to have something on her mind, appearing absent-minded. After entering the water, suddenly, her gaze sharpened, and she looked in a certain direction.
"Who is it? Sneaking around. Come out!"
Her gaze shot straight to a corner, and she raised both hands, ready to attack.
Seeing this, Rex sighed.
"As expected, facing a master of Observation Haki, hiding here is easily discovered!!"
The next moment, before the Empress could attack, Rex instantly activated the King's Treasure.
Chains of Heaven!!
Before the Empress could strike, golden ripples appeared. Amidst her shock, golden chains shot out, instantly binding the Empress's hands and feet.
The Empress was horrified. She tried to break free, but found the golden chains as solid as a rock, impossible to shake.
In almost an instant, her beautiful face turned pale!
Because her back was now completely exposed.
At this moment, Rex didn't have time to appreciate the Empress's panic. The check-in countdown had begun.
Three! Two! One!
Ding! Congratulations, Host! Check-in successful!
Check-in Reward: Character Template: Uchiha Obito
In an instant, the character template information appeared in Rex's mind.
Character Template: Uchiha Obito
Development Level: 0%
Abilities: 1. Kamui (Intangibility)
"Here it is... Obito's character template!"
Rex was shocked and delighted.
The most bugged Mangekyō Sharingan ability in Naruto.
Obito's Mangekyō ability was so powerful that the author had to split it up to nerf it, but even so, the ability was still heaven-defying.
This time, Uchiha Obito's initial skill was only Kamui (Intangibility).
The ability to be unlocked later would probably be the teleportation aspect of Kamui.
Without hesitation, Rex immediately began using the Uchiha Obito character template.
The next moment, his main body changed, turning into a shadowy figure.
He wore a black robe with red clouds embroidered on it, and an orange spiral mask on his face. Through the spiral, a Mangekyō Sharingan with a strange pattern could be seen.
"As expected... only one eye. My field of vision is limited. I'll probably need to absorb special energy to unlock both eyes!"
Rex wasn't annoyed.
The intangibility ability was bugged enough.
The moment Rex transformed into Uchiha Obito, the Hero-King's King's Treasure ability disappeared.
The Chains of Heaven binding the Empress instantly turned into golden dust and dissipated within the Bath Palace.
The Empress reacted instantly, quickly retreating. Her beautiful face, in that instant, turned into a look of heaven-shaking rage.
"Who are you?!"
The next moment, a black figure walked out from the stone pillar, as if passing through it.
Seeing Uchiha Obito, the Empress was stunned. He passed through the stone pillar! An ability user!
Then, she became furious. If her back was seen, it would be a huge disaster.
"Sneaking into Kuja Castle, you deserve to die."
The Empress snorted coldly, her beautiful face flashing with a terrifying coldness, and immediately struck a heart-shaped pose.
"Mero Mero Mellow!"
The pink heart-shaped beam swept through Uchiha Obito's body, but it didn't cause any ripples.
The Empress's expression hardened. It had no effect.
Impossible. Did my fruit ability fail?
