Reincarnated as Kaido, married Big Mom, and formed a dual-Emperor pirate crew.

Chapter 105 Kaido's Ambition and Sengoku's Decision

"How would I know if this is even possible?"

Kaido deliberately made things mysterious:

"I'm not a professional researcher, I just heard it from others."

"Whether we can ultimately turn the words of that dying scientist into truth depends on the abilities of you world-class scientists."

Upon hearing this, Thane (Quinn) nodded matter-of-factly, "That's exactly how it should be."

Then, Kaido pushed the gun forward, the muzzle pointing at Sain's forehead.

"Now it's your turn to answer: surrender, or die!!"

"Of course we submit!!"

Sain yelled, "Damn it, I still have so many dreams to fulfill, I can't die now!"

Upon hearing this, Kaido completely sheathed his gun and took out the key to untie Sien.

As soon as Sain regained his freedom, he started shouting loudly.

"Is there anything to eat?! I've been starving all night, my stomach is about to burst!!"

"Not urgent!"

Kaido walked up to Vegapunk.

"There's one last person. After we've finished asking them, we'll officially begin the banquet."

Vegapunk stared at Kaido with a sullen face and indifferent eyes.

"How do you intend to use our power?"

"How do you want me to use your power?"

Kaido passed the question back to Vegapunk.

Vegapunk said in a deep voice, "I founded the MADS Institute in order to find a way to achieve world peace."

"Utilize the power of technology."

"Make cold islands warm, make starving people have enough to eat, and make harsh environments suitable for survival."

"If everyone in the world can live and work in peace and contentment, there will be no place in the world where war breaks out due to resource shortages!!"

"This is my dream!"

"You, Kaido, if you're so capable, give me a promise like you made to Judge and Caesar!!"

"What's so difficult about that?!" Kaidoro laughed. "To be precise, your dream and my dream are highly overlapping!!"

At this point, Kaido suddenly beckoned Olga to fetch a Den Den Mushi (snail phone) that could broadcast communications to the entire fleet.

"The entire Beasts Pirates!"

"You've followed me, Kaido, all this time! You probably still don't quite understand my ambitions!"

"Now I will announce to the entire Beasts Pirates the ultimate goal that I, Kaido, am determined to achieve in my lifetime!!"

A loud announcement rang out simultaneously on all five pirate ships.

Immediately, all the busy Beast Pirates stopped what they were doing, pricked up their ears, and waited patiently for Kaido to continue.

Meanwhile, on the ship housing the rescued people, those whom Kaido had pulled from underground all raised their eyes.

They were also very curious about what their future would hold.

Whether they escape one danger only to fall into another, or whether they've truly encountered kind people and can return home safely, will all depend on Kaido's next words.

"Listen up, everyone! My dream, Kaido's dream, is very simple—"

Kaido, who was broadcasting, paused slightly to distinguish what he was about to say from what he had said before.

"Conquer all the lands in the world!"

"To rule over all the lands in the world!"

"Slaughter all the long-decayed old nobles!"

"To unite the whole world into one country!"

"All the islands are no longer distinguished by this country or that country!"

"War between nations will never exist again!!"

"All the land in the world belongs to me, Kaido, alone!"

"At the same time, I will lease all the land in the world equally to everyone!"

"You! Including everyone in the whole world!"

"They only need to pay taxes to me, Kaido, and become my slaves!"

"To achieve all of the above, my ultimate goal as Kaido is to become the King of the World!!"

Upon hearing this, the entire Beast Fleet fell into a brief silence.

But the silence didn't last long; it quickly turned into a frenzy of celebration and shouts.

Especially those long-time members who came all the way from the West Sea.

They knew it all too well.

Kaido wasn't lying, because that's exactly what he did in the Land of Dragons.

All the land belongs to Kaido alone.

All citizens can only rent Kaido's land for cultivation; they have no right to buy or sell the land they own.

Apart from that, Kaido does not impose any restrictions on any citizen who wants to engage in any industry.

It can be said that the Dragon Kingdom, although it has only been in its early stages, already resembles the utopia that most ordinary people dream of.

Vegapunk was equally shocked in front of Kaido.

"You want to become the king of the world? A dictator?!"

"Is there any reason why not?"

Kaido retorted coldly, "The current World Government, although it appears very democratic in form, has its development decided by the top 50 member states at the World Conference held every four years."

"But has the world become a better place thanks to their discussions?!"

"More than 700 years! The World Government has been established for more than 700 years!"

"As world-class scientists, you should all know a bit about history, right?"

"How was the world 600 years ago different from it now?"

"How was the world 400 years ago different from it now?"

"How is the world 200 years ago different from it now?"

The three questions, along with Kaido's earlier remarks, were broadcast over the loudspeakers on all the ships.

"Slavery has not been completely eradicated even now!"

"They were a noble family 700 years ago, and as long as the country wasn't destroyed by natural disasters or pirates, they are still nobles now!"

"Why are there so many pirates in this world?! We can never catch them all, never kill them all?!"

"Isn't it just that too many people can't survive?!"

"Do you really think everyone here is into robbery and sets sail for the legendary ONE PIECE?!"

"It's been 700 years!"

"The world hasn't gotten better under the leadership of the World Government at all! On the contrary, it has been stagnant!!"

"If that's the case! Why not try a dictatorship that the World Government keeps a deep secret! One king ruling the world?!"

Kaido spoke with complete confidence.

That's what he thought, and that's what he was prepared to do.

As he finished speaking, the Beast Pirates' fervor reached a new level.

Shouts shattered the clouds, and the system notifications of rising loyalty echoed in Kaido's mind.

Vegapunk was equally horrified.

However, his long-held beliefs still constrained him.

He tried his best to refute, "Do you know that by doing this, you will drag the whole world into the quagmire of war?"

"700 years! Wars have been breaking out continuously throughout the world!"

Kaido countered, "Do you know roughly how many people have died in this long period of time because of the war?"

Vegapunk remained silent.

Kaido continued, "In order to realize my dream, the world may be plunged into a great war!"

"Countless people will die because of this war, but!!"

"My war will not last long!"

"Once the fighting begins, it will inevitably end completely within a year!"

"Even if tens of millions of people die in a year, it's still less than a fraction of the total number of deaths over 700 years!!"

"And after that, as long as I win, the whole world will have at least 100 years of peace!!"

"Vegapunk! Think about this carefully!"

"Compared to a world of endless war and chaos!"

"Isn't my 100-year plan better?!"

After saying that, Kaido fell silent and patiently waited for Vegapunk's reply.

If Vegapunk still refuses to serve him after all this, then he will have no choice but to kill him and allow the Brain-Brain Fruit to once again embark on its sea voyage.

Time began to pass second by second.

Vegapunk thought for a full five minutes.

At last……

He let out a long sigh, "You've successfully convinced me. I'm willing to become your subordinate."

"However, I do have conditions!"

Vegapunk changed the subject: "If you go against your original intentions in the future, I will leave you without hesitation!"

"Hmph hmph hmph..." Kaido laughed, "If I really go against my original intentions, don't even think about leaving my side!"

"It would be perfectly reasonable for them to join forces with my opponents to overthrow me!!"

Upon hearing this, Vegapunk nodded solemnly.

I will always remember what you just said!

"Kaido, no, Captain Kaido!!"

"Uro ro ro ro..."

Upon hearing Vegapunk officially change his tune, Kaido burst into laughter.

"My men! Did you all hear that? The banquet is about to begin!!"

“┗|艹皿艹|┛嗷！！”

……

What happened after that is self-evident.

The Beast Fleet arrived at the southeastern port of the island, bringing with it a research ship bearing the "MADS" sign.

Vegapunk and Judge officially announced to all the researchers on board that the MADS Research Institute officially belonged to the Beasts Pirates from this day forward.

Anyone who wants to leave must do so within 48 hours.

Once more than 48 hours have passed, it is assumed that everyone is willing to become Kaido's subordinate.

Final result——

Not a single researcher or scientist chose to leave.

During this process, the Beasts Pirates gradually moved closer to the third island.

........................

at the same time.

Marineford, Naval Headquarters.

Sengoku received Kaido's broadcast from that day almost verbatim, along with information about his destruction of the Tabul Kingdom and the massacre of the Tabul royal family.

His tall figure sat in the general's office, his mature and wise face now filled with worry.

"He actually destroyed the Tarbur Kingdom, and he even wants to become the King of the World, a dictator... Kaido..."

"You've got a whole set of fallacies to back up your arguments, but the world is never that simple!"

Sengoku didn't take Kaido's impassioned speech to heart.

It wasn't that he couldn't tell Kaido wasn't joking; he was genuinely prepared to do it.

But the key issue is that there are quite a few people these days who say they want to become the king of the world and rule it.

First there was Rocks, now there's Golden Lion, both clamoring to overthrow the World Government.

In addition, after Rocks fell, many pirate forces that re-emerged in the New World also shouted similar slogans.

Now there's another Kaido, it really doesn't matter if he's there or not.

Of course, if that were all, the Warring States period wouldn't have completely disregarded it.

The more important reason is—

In today's world, it really is the nobles who call the shots.

Excluding the navy, 80% of the world's armies are controlled by nobles.

Excluding the World Government, 80% of the world's resources are controlled by nobles.

Kaido's declaration was indeed very moving.

But his declaration, viewed from another perspective, means that he wants to fight the whole world by himself.

This is no joke!

In comparison, Shiki's idea of ​​unifying all pirates in the world and then gathering their power to overthrow the World Government is far more threatening than Kaido's claims.

Therefore, Sengoku was more concerned about Kaido's destruction of another allied country and the addition of the MADS Research Institute to his fold than about Kaido's ambitions.

"This is really troublesome. The MADS Research Institute, those scientists are all dangerous individuals..."

Looking at the information recorded in the intelligence report, Sengoku was practically bald from worry.

"What's wrong? Why are you so troubled?"

Vice Admiral Tsuru strode into the office and handed Sengoku intelligence about the new world and the Golden Lion's latest battle with someone else.

Sengoku sighed helplessly and told Vice Admiral Tsuru what Kaido had done.

After listening, Lieutenant General He's expression became extremely solemn.

"Warring States Period, I suggest you make a decision as soon as possible."

"I have a feeling that if we don't restrict it now, it will become uncontrollable in the future!"

"I want to limit him too!" Sengoku sighed. "The key is that this kid, like the Golden Lion, can fly!"

"Even if I successfully surround him at sea with my troops, he can just take his fleet into the sky and we still won't be able to do anything to him."

Surely we can't expect Sengoku and his lieutenants to catch up using the Moonwalk technique, can we?

If Kaido is focused on escaping, even if they break their legs, they still won't be able to catch up with the flying Azure Dragon.

"I've thought about it," Sengoku said in a deep voice. "When facing enemies like Kaido and Shiki who can fly, it's best to make them fight to the death willingly! Otherwise, capturing them will be too difficult."

"Then should we just send troops to attack the Dragon Kingdom?"

Vice Admiral Tsuru suggested, "Didn't you say that Kaido left his wife and children in the Land of Dragons? And that Emru, he's supposed to give birth in a few months."

"Using them as leverage, we're not afraid of Kaido fighting to the death!"

Zhan Guo took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and rubbed his brow.

He had already tried this trick.

We should bring Garin and Zephyr along.

As for the result...

If the problem had been solved back then, he wouldn't have to worry about it now.

Unfortunately, he couldn't explain the specific details of this matter to Lieutenant General Tsuru.

"Let's wait and see for now."

"Their next stop is Lugi Arno's stronghold. Kaido has taken away two large territories of his, so he will not let this go easily."

"I'll go with Zefa then."

"If we have the chance, we should arrest Kaido on the spot!"

Lieutenant General Tsuru retorted, "Aren't you taking Garp with you?"

"That guy's at odds with Roger now," Sengoku sighed helplessly. "He can't be easily called back."
