Chapter 4: Chapter 4: New Horizons
"Unexpectedly, there is a five-minute delay even when crossing the world. Fortunately, I didn't use this ability amidst battle; otherwise, I would have to be unlucky."
Shin muttered to himself while walking on land full of ice and snow.
Seriously, he was glad he didn't take the ability to travel through worlds as a trump card to avoid attacks in battle. Otherwise, the five-minute delay would have killed him.
"Of course, the main question now is, which world did I travel to?"
Looking at the snowflakes in the sky and the snow-capped ground, Shin scratched his head, and he felt distressed.
Fortunately, as a ninja, he still has a slight resistance to the environment, so even if he doesn't wear cold weather gear, he just feels a little cold, but he is not freezing.
"Forget it, let's hurry up and find someone."
Some tracking techniques he learned from the ninja school have helped a lot. Soon, he can judge from the surrounding environment which is most likely to have a residential area, and start to move there.
However, after walking for a while, a massive figure with a cane appeared in the distance of the snowstorm.
"What?" Shin thought it was a person, but after walking a few steps, he felt something was wrong because the proportion of the person's body did not match that of a human being; it was too big.
As he got closer, Shin finally discovered the whole appearance of the creature. It was a giant white bear leaning on a cane, or in other words, a big white bear with a pickaxe upside down!
The bear, with a serious expression, walked slowly on the snow. It had a similar posture to a human, and judging from its eyes, it was obviously sentient.
"Uh..." Shin hesitated for a moment. The summoning beasts in the Naruto world are also intelligent, so he has no other prejudice against these unknown races. However, he also knows they are not of his race, and their culture must differ. Who knows what this big bear thinks of humans?
But in the end, he thought it was better to say hello. Of course, he had already prepared for battle, and the explosive tag attached to a kunai in his pocket was ready.
"Excuse me, have you seen other humans?" Shin took two steps closer and asked. However, the bear ignored him and just bowed to him.
Shin was taken aback for a moment and bowed in return. Then, the bear paid no heed to him and left.
"Hey... Forget it, I'm afraid it can't speak, but this guy's manners seem respectful. Have I seen it somewhere? This should also be a world I am familiar with!"
Shin scratched his head. Ten years had passed, and he had long since forgotten the contents of various literature, so for a while, he had not fully recognized where the bear came from.
"Forget it, let's go. It is estimated that we will be able to find a residential area soon."
Climbing up a small hillside, Shin looked up and saw a scene that surprised him.
The vast sea is at the end of the line of sight, and he is currently on an island.
In the center of the island are some vast, cylindrical snow-capped mountains. This scenery, coupled with the weird big bear he just saw and the snow-capped environment, instantly revived Shin's long-faded memory.
"One Piece! Drum Island! The one just now is the Hiking Bear!"
Shin, who finally knew where he was, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Although the One Piece world cannot be considered safe by any means, it is not too bad; at least, there is a particular basic order.
Moreover, where he is now is only the first half of the Grand Line, not in the New World, which is extremely chaotic.
As a Genin, his strength is naturally nothing in the entire One Piece world, but on this Drum Island, as long as he doesn't act recklessly, he doesn't have to worry about his safety.
And don't underestimate a Genin in the world of Naruto; in the face of ordinary citizens, it can already be called a mini Superman. Blessed with a body with chakra, faster than a cheetah and more potent than a bear, coupled with various special killing techniques taught by the ninja academy, even an ordinary Genin can quickly kill dozens of strong robbers.
At least most of the so-called martial arts masters in classical martial arts novels can't beat this mass-produced cannon fodder.
Not to mention that they also have amazing ninjutsu; a low-level technique like the three-body technique is naturally not powerful enough in the Naruto world, but in other worlds, it is definitely a magical skill.
In the Naruto world, in the three-body technique, only the Clone Technique is somewhat helpful, but in other worlds, the most buggy thing is the Transformation Technique!
Compared with the Naruto world, the stronger ninjas can distinguish the transformation technique, but in the One Piece world, unless it is a guy who has a high-level observation haki, he can't tell the difference at all.
There will be no more than 100 people in the entire world with this level of haki. Few such people exist in the first half of the Grand Line, and there is certainly no one like that on Drum Island.
In essence, Shin has the potential to lead a fulfilling life in this world armed solely with the Transformation Technique he has learned.
"Let's take a look at the current timeline now... Damn it, I haven't read the manga for more than ten years, and I've already forgotten about the timeline of One Piece!"
"But it's not a big deal. Go to the island to find someone and ask Roger, the Pirate King. You can know the approximate timeline. I remember Roger was executed 20 years before the Straw Hat Pirates went to sea!"
While thinking about it, Shin also saw the smoke in the distance from the hillside and was about to go there directly.
However, with a strange sound, a peculiar white creature jumped out of the snow, with a height of three or four meters, a chubby body, massive forelimbs more than two meters long, and a fierce... rabbit head?
"What is this... what?" Shin tilted his head vaguely as if he had some impression, but before he could dig out the complete memory from his mind, the strange rabbit had already rushed over.
Judging from the fangs in the mouth of that weird rabbit, I am afraid that this guy should not be an ordinary vegetarian rabbit but a carnivore animal.
Shin has now been treated as prey by this rabbit.
Shin smiled slightly, reached into his ninja bag, and took out a Kunai with an explosive tag.
