I, Hikaru Uchiha, join the chat group

As Bulma explained excitedly.

Uchiha Hikaru took the bracelet she handed over and looked at it carefully.

The style of this thing is not much different from the previous one, except that the button on the dial has become a knob with three scales marked on it: "10", "100", and "1000".

According to Bulma, as long as you rotate it to the corresponding scale, you can shrink it according to that proportion, and use another button to restore it to its original state.

For ordinary people, the "1000" scale is basically useless. After all, in that case, the whole person will become a millimeter level that is not visible to the naked eye. If you are not careful, you may be mistaken for a mosquito and slapped to death.

However, if it is those huge strange beasts, it is a different story.

"With this, Xiao Guang, you can go to the Akagi World and bring out the East Sea Cloud Dragon!"

"……really."

Uchiha Hikaru looked up at the blue-haired girl opposite him and said thank you: "Thank you, Bulma."

"Hey, given our relationship, do we really need to say something so distant?"

Bulma pretended to be unhappy.

But before Uchiha Hikaru could respond, she grinned again and stretched out her hand, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Come, I'll take you to visit our future pirate ship and see if there is anything that needs to be improved! If everything is OK, then I'll hang up the flag of the 'Dimension Pirates'."

"it is good."

……

There is quite a lot of space on the "Blue Planet".

Starting from the cockpit, the cabin is fully equipped with a restaurant, kitchen, bathhouse, laundry room, infirmary, conference room... and so on. Of course, there is also the small garden that Bulma originally envisioned for growing vegetables, fruits, and the "gravity training room" that Uchiha Hikaru had been dreaming of.

If it were a real warship, logistics would be a big problem. Fuel, ammunition, food, fresh water... these resources would take up a lot of space and would need to be resupplied every few weeks. If faced with high-intensity combat, resupply might be required every three to five days.

However, the Dragon Ball world has the black technology of "universal capsule", which directly solves the most troublesome problem, and the rest is easy.

Theoretically, they could even get two giant pandas and keep them on the boat, along with some other small animals, to create a real-life "Noah's Ark."

"Good."

After taking a tour and experiencing the function of the "gravity training room" for a while, Uchiha Hikaru gave his evaluation.

After a pause, she thought of another question: "By the way, how are you going to get this thing into the pirate world?"

"Well, this is very simple."

Bulma held up two fingers and explained with a smile, "Two ways. First, upload this ship to the group at a price of 1 point and let Yamato buy it over there. Second... I forgot to tell you just now, this warship can actually be shrunk. As long as it is shrunk to one-tenth or even one-fifth of its length, it can be put into the universal capsule and taken away."

"?!"

The universal capsule contains a vacuum environment and cannot be used to hold living people, but its capacity is still considerable for holding dead objects.

Uchiha Guang thought about it and felt that there was no problem.

"Great!"

"If you think it's okay, Xiao Guang, then when are we going to leave?"

Bulma's face was full of anticipation.

"... maybe in a few days."

Uchiha Hikaru scratched his head and said, "I will go back to Konoha first and tell Shisui and the others what needs to be done. You should also contact Kikyo and the others to see how everyone arranges their schedule... If everything goes well, we will find an auspicious day and go to the pirate world to explore."

As the "vice-captain" of the pirate group, Uchiha Hikaru's words carry a lot of weight.

Although Bulma was already impatient for the pirate trip, she calmed down at this moment and began to ask about Kikyo and others one by one.

Take advantage of this gap.

Uchiha Hikaru first went to Dr. Gero's laboratory and discussed the latest research progress with the Gero couple, as well as Tamayo, Yushiro, Mechanical Maru and others who had just been assigned there not long ago.

Then he took Esdeath back to Konoha Village in the Naruto world.

This side of Konoha.

The clinical trials on the Uchiha clan are still ongoing, but are nearing their end.

——This is just the first phase of the experiment.

After listening to the reports from Shisui and Orochimaru, Uchiha Hikaru took the record book handed over by the latter two and took a rough look at it. Then he took out the blood sample of the Dragon King brought back from the Dragon World and showed it to them.

Orochimaru's snake-like eyes lit up almost immediately.

"...I see. Does that mysterious dragon creature have different attributes?"

"The previous blood sample came from a dragon of the 'earth' attribute, but this time it's from the 'fire' attribute?"

Orochimaru held the test tube in front of him, observing the dark red blood inside that looked like boiling cola, with an inquiring expression on his face: "It seems that there are really many magical creatures on the continent that Master Guang went to. I wonder if I will have the opportunity to go with Master Guang to see them in the future."

“…There will be.”

Uchiha Guang made a pie in the sky.

Then, when Shisui and the others were away, she found Orochimaru again and mentioned the "private chat channel" to him.

That's right.

After much consideration, Uchiha Hikaru finally decided to give the private chat quota in the Naruto world to Orochimaru.

This is almost an inevitable choice.

Excluding Naruto and Karin, who are still children, she can only look for candidates for private chat from Shisui, Fugaku, and Orochimaru. Among them, Fugaku can be ruled out first because of his lack of ability, leaving Shisui and Orochimaru. One is more loyal but not very well-informed, and the other is the opposite.

In comparison, intelligence is more important. After all, no one knows when Akatsuki and Obito will suddenly make big news. If Shisui receives the news before passing it to her, it may be too late.

Of course……

Uchiha Hikaru did not mention anything about the chat group, he only said that this "private chat" function was a new "technique" he had recently developed to achieve remote communication.

——Communication between different worlds can also be considered “remote communication”, there’s nothing wrong with that.

Orochimaru seemed a little skeptical, but did not continue to ask. He just promised to keep a close eye on the movements in the ninja world and inform Uchiha Hikaru if there was any news.

As for the fulfillment of this promise...

We'll have to wait and see.

If Orochimaru performs well enough, it is not impossible to consider taking him to another world to broaden his horizons.
