Pirate World — Navy Headquarters
At the Marineford headquarters, high-ranking Navy officials, including Sengoku, Garp, and Tsuru, gathered for an important meeting.
Sengoku, the Fleet Admiral, was the first to speak, breaking the silence in the room.
"There have been strange events happening around the world. What have your investigations found?"
Tsuru, a Vice Admiral, stood up and began handing out reports.
"We believe these strange occurrences might be related to the appearance of some rare, powerful treasures. However, we haven't found anything concrete yet. The events are happening all over the world, but they vary in length and intensity. We need to investigate further."
Garp, ever laid-back, scratched his nose and casually asked:
"Could this be the work of the Revolutionary Army?"
Tsuru responded, shaking her head.
"We're not sure yet. But the Revolutionary Army has been active recently, so it's possible."
Sengoku furrowed his brow, looking serious.
"Keep investigating their movements. And order every Navy unit to stay on high alert. We can't let them slip by."
Tsuru nodded and quickly left the room to give orders.
Sengoku then turned to Akainu and Aokiji.
"Now, what's going on with the pirates?"
Aokiji spoke calmly.
"There's an increasing number of pirates, and more of them have Devil Fruits. However, they're not working together as a group, so it's not putting too much pressure on our Navy branches."
Suddenly, Aokiji looked out the window.
"What's going on out there?" Sengoku asked, noticing dark clouds gathering in the sky.
Kizaru, the ever-cool admiral, responded.
"Could be another pirate attack."
BOOM!
A loud thunderclap rang out, and everyone in the room blinked as the sky seemed to flash with light.
When their vision cleared, a massive, glowing screen appeared in front of them, floating above the table.
A line of text appeared on the screen:
[The Inventory of the Weird and Fun Nicknames from Across the Worlds!
Top 10: The Iron Head Tanjiro! The 10th Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps – "The Iron-Head Boy"!]

Naruto World
Hidden Leaf Village
In the peaceful village of Konoha, villagers were enjoying their usual day.
Suddenly, a loud shout echoed through the village.
"NARUTO!! STOP RIGHT NOW!"
The villagers barely reacted—this was a common scene.
Up on the rooftops, a blonde boy with a mischievous grin raced past, holding a bucket full of colorful paint.
"Hee hee! You'll never catch me, Iruka-sensei!"
But then—CRACK!—a bolt of lightning flashed through the sky.
Startled, Naruto slipped and fell from the roof.
"Ugh! What the heck is that?!" Naruto shouted, looking up in confusion.
Iruka, the teacher, quickly landed beside him and also stared up.
A huge, glowing screen hovered above them.

Demon Slayer World
Demon Slayer Corps HQ
In the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Corps, the Hashira, the strongest warriors, were gathered.
Gyomei, the Stone Hashira, stood still, staring at the glowing screen in front of him.
Despite being blind, he could clearly see the strange screen. This was more than just odd—it felt wrong.
All the Hashira around him also stared, puzzled. They were ready for battle, thinking this might be a trap from the Muzan, but nothing happened. The screen just hovered there.
Gyomei spoke up.
"It seems safe. Let's not panic."
He opened the video, and the title caught his attention. It said, "The 10th Hashira?"
Everyone knew there were only nine Hashira's in the Demon Slayer Corps. Who was this mysterious "10th Hashira"?
The name "Tanjiro" stood out to Gyomei. He knew that name. Tanjiro was a new recruit in the Demon Slayer Corps, but he didn't know much about him.
The other Hashira's relaxed, trusting Gyomei's judgment. They had seen many strange things before, but they couldn't ignore the screen.
Suddenly, the sky outside the window was filled with a dazzling, rainbow-colored glow. It stretched across the entire sky like a bridge of stars.
Everyone turned to look at the breathtaking scene, but just then, Tomioka Giyu, the Water Hashira, shouted in surprise.
He was staring at the screen, wide-eyed.
"Tanjiro? Could this be Kamado Tanjiro?" he said, shocked.
"Who?" asked Shinobu, confused.
"The new recruit I told you about—the one with a special sister. He's... different."
Giyu opened the video, eager to find out more.
