One Piece x Naruto: The Uchiha Pirate King

"Lend us a hand?"

Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama were both puzzled by this request.

Meanwhile, Lin Xuan, who was watching the live stream, seemed to realize something and chuckled. "Looks like I might get to witness the birth of Six Paths Madara and Six Paths Hashirama!"

Uchiha Madara: "???"

Senju Hashirama: "???"

The part of the Naruto storyline they had seen earlier had been deliberately edited by Lin Xuan, omitting certain key details—such as how Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke obtained the power of the Six Paths. As a result, they had no idea that the Sage of Six Paths had left behind contingencies in this world, nor did they suspect that Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo's brother, Ōtsutsuki Hamura, might have done the same.

At this moment, they were completely baffled by Lin Xuan's words.

However, Lin Xuan didn't elaborate. Instead, he simply said, "In any case, a special surprise is coming. Just enjoy the show!"

Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama exchanged glances but didn't press further. They turned their attention to Ōtsutsuki Hamura.

Uchiha Madara cut straight to the chase: "Do you have a way to grant us the power of the Six Paths?"

The moment he asked, it was Ōtsutsuki Hamura's turn to be stunned. "How did you know?!"

Uchiha Madara's spirits lifted. He hadn't expected his random question to actually hit the mark.

He didn't answer Hamura's question, simply urging, "I guessed. If you can give us the power of the Six Paths, then hurry up. Your brother probably won't last much longer!"

Ōtsutsuki Hamura knew time was of the essence. He motioned for Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama to come closer. "You two, come here!"

Then, he turned to the other reincarnated individuals and said, "All of you, come here as well!"

Everyone was confused but complied, gathering before Ōtsutsuki Hamura.

Hamura addressed Madara and Hashirama: "Next, I will impart to you the power of Yin and Yang, which can be used to seal my mother. However, your current strength is insufficient. We'll need to transfer the chakra of the others to you as well!"

Hearing this, Namikaze Minato immediately asked, "Wait, isn't the chakra of those in the Edo Tensei state unlimited? Why is this necessary?"

Ōtsutsuki Hamura explained, "Unlimited means it can continuously regenerate, but the total amount won't exceed their peak capacity in life. It also can't evolve into a higher form of chakra. Only through the fusion of Yin and Yang can you break through!"

Most of them still didn't fully understand, but Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, who had some knowledge of Yin-Yang release, quickly grasped the concept.

In other words, their Edo Tensei bodies couldn't reach the Six Paths level on their own.

Ōtsutsuki Hamura, in life, had been stronger in sage techniques rather than raw chakra capacity—far inferior to the Sage of Six Paths in that regard. He couldn't directly bestow enough Six Paths chakra upon Madara and Hashirama. However, he could use the chakra of those around them, convert it into Six Paths power, and then transfer it to the two of them!

Uzumaki Naruto, who had just rushed into the battlefield, immediately shouted upon hearing that chakra was needed: "You can have our chakra too!"

But Ōtsutsuki Hamura merely glanced at him and shook his head. "The chakra of the living and the dead are fundamentally different. They can only use the chakra of the deceased."

"Such a restriction actually exists?!" Orochimaru quietly noted this down, murmuring thoughtfully, "Could this also be why the Infinite Tsukuyomi only absorbs the chakra of the living and ignores the dead?"

Meanwhile, Ōtsutsuki Hamura had already begun transferring the power of Yin and Yang to Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama.

Now came the process of converting chakra.

"Never thought I'd live to see the day I'd help Uchiha Madara," muttered Senju Tobirama, shooting Madara a sidelong glance before steeling his resolve. "But if it's for the sake of the world, I'll trust you just this once!"

With that, he was the first to place his hand on Ōtsutsuki Hamura's back, allowing his chakra to be drawn away.

The others followed suit, forming a chain as they placed their hands on Hamura's back one after another, transferring their chakra through him to Madara and Hashirama.

Watching this, Uchiha Madara merely snorted. "If it weren't for the sake of this world, I wouldn't even want your chakra!"

Senju Hashirama laughed. "Come on, Madara, stop being so stubborn!"

Then, he turned to the others and said, "Everyone, thank you for your help! Once we've dealt with Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, we'll make sure to properly honor your contributions!"

"A surprise?"

Many in the audience were curious, but since Hashirama didn't elaborate, they didn't press further.

Meanwhile, the living—such as Tsunade and the others—watched as these legendary figures, regardless of past grudges, united for the sake of the world and the living. They were deeply moved.

And under their moved gazes—

BOOM!

Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama's auras underwent a tremendous transformation. Truth-Seeking Balls materialized behind them, and black staffs appeared in their hands.

Six Paths Madara and Six Paths Hashirama had been born!

Witnessing this scene, countless people in the Naruto world were stunned.

Back in the One Piece world, Lin Xuan couldn't wait to ask his system:

"System, now that Madara and Hashirama have unlocked Six Paths Mode, if I reincarnate them with Edo Tensei in the future, will they retain this form?"

The system replied: "Yes, but the required reputation points will increase."

Lin Xuan: "..."

Well, fair enough. Since they've ascended to a higher tier of power, it makes sense that the cost of cross-dimensional Edo Tensei would rise.

Fortunately, he had already collected DNA samples from Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, stored in the system. At least he wouldn't have to spend extra reputation points to repurchase their genetic material now that they'd grown stronger.

This realization sparked another thought:

Maybe I should target weaker Edo Tensei candidates first, then nurture them to greater strength—or wait for them to grow stronger on their own—before reincarnating them. That way, I can get more value for my reputation points!

For example, he had already reincarnated Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama and built a good rapport with them. Now that they'd reached Six Paths level, summoning them again would be far more cost-effective than summoning the Sage of Six Paths and his brother.

Moreover, Madara and Hashirama would cooperate with his plans and could remain as long as the sacrificial vessels held out. The Sage of Six Paths and his brother, on the other hand, might not be as compliant.

Even if he could forcibly control them, the time limit of one day made them far less practical!
