One Piece: Obtaining the Black Dragon King Fruit at the Start

Chapter 71 The Shock of the New World's Strongest

"Thank you for your concern, Dad and everyone else, I'm fine," Marco said with a bitter expression.

"Captain Marco, your face looks so bad, how can you be alright!"

"Yes! Captain Marco, what happened to make you look so pale?"

Marco was very pleased to see the concern shown by the other captains and crew members. However, he found it difficult to show his joy this time.

"Kurara, Marco, please tell everyone what happened! Otherwise, everyone will be very worried about you."

Whitebeard also stopped smiling. He guessed that something big must have happened, otherwise Marco, with his composure, would not have lost his composure like this.

Marco took a deep breath before saying in a deep voice, "This time something really big has happened. Kaido and the Killer, the guy who shouldn't be called Minos, have a big battle in the East Blue."

After Marco finished speaking, the Moby Dick fell into complete silence.

"What?! It's just Kaido!"

"Yeah, it must be that brat named Minos who got a good beating from Kaido!"

"I knew that brat Minos was too arrogant, he'd definitely get a lesson!"

Marco watched the crew members on the ship discussing Minos, and they all looked down on him, which made Marco feel very helpless.

The Whitebeard Pirates are getting a little too carried away under their father's protection.

But Marco didn't say anything, because they were all family.

"You're wrong. Minos wasn't taught a lesson by Kaido; instead, they fought to a draw," Marco said seriously as his crew members became increasingly agitated.

After Marco finished speaking, the pirates on the Moby Dick were speechless for a moment, their faces showing great shock.

Whitebeard also had a serious expression on his face, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

"Impossible! Minos actually managed to fight Kaido, that monster, to a draw."

Shock, shock. The Whitebeard Pirates and their crew were utterly astonished; they couldn't believe that Minos, that newcomer, had fought Kaido to a standstill.

Although the Whitebeard Pirates are not afraid of Kaido, it is only because Whitebeard is there that they dare to be so presumptuous.

Now, to hear that a newcomer can fight Kaido to a draw, what about all those who have been fighting on the sea for so long?

A gloomy atmosphere was hanging over the Whitebeard Pirates, making all the captains and crew members feel very bad.

Just as the atmosphere was getting increasingly tense, Whitebeard spoke up.

"Kurara, what are you worried about? I'm Whitebeard, you know?"

"If that brat Minos dares to come to the New World, I'll show him what it means to be the strongest man."

After Whitebeard's powerful words, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates emerged from their gloom.

"Yeah, right? Our old man has a white beard! What is Minos, a mere newbie, compared to him?"

"With Father here, we will fear nothing. What are Kaido of the Beasts, what are Minos? They will all be defeated by Father."

Marco watched the Whitebeard Pirates regain their confidence and felt very happy.

As long as Whitebeard is around, his crew will be the strongest of the Four Emperors.

However, Marco was quite dazed when he saw the newspaper article about the arrival of the Five Emperors Era.

……

The New World, the Land of Harmony.

On Onigashima, Kaido of the Beasts sat drinking and laughing loudly, "King, let me tell you, that brat Minos is really good, very much to my liking, and also very powerful. It's just a pity he didn't join our Beasts Pirates."

"So, Admiral Kaido, all you did when you went to Loguetown in the East Blue was fight Minos and didn't get anything, right?" King said helplessly, looking at the newspaper in his hand.

"Haha, how did you know, King?" Kaido laughed loudly.

King didn't answer, but silently handed the newspaper in his hand to Kaido.

Kaido took the newspaper, read it carefully, and laughed loudly, "Haha, Minos has really become famous this time."

"Admiral Kaido, don't you think the news about the arrival of the Five Emperors in the newspapers is a bit of an exaggeration?" King asked Kaido seriously.

a long time.

"Jin! At first, I also thought that brat Minos was too inexperienced, but after I fought him, I realized that brat was incredibly strong."

"Moreover, even after I used my ultimate technique, Binding, that brat Minos was still able to resist," Kaido remarked.

"Then it seems the newspaper report is true!" Jin regained his composure.

“It’s true, King. The newspapers have recorded everything. It’s not surprising that that brat Minos is called one of the Five Emperors, except that he doesn’t have his own power.” Kaido said with a serious expression.

"Admiral Kaido, how should we deal with Minos coming to the New World?" King asked.

"Haha, of course we'll let that brat Minos run wild. Our headquarters are in Wano Country, he can't affect us." Kaido laughed loudly.

King was speechless at Kaido's nonchalant attitude.

……

New World, Red Fosse.

Shanks and Beckman stood at the bow of the ship, gazing out to sea, speechless for a moment.

a long time.

"Looks like we underestimated that brat Minos!" Beckman remained as calm as ever.

“Yes! That brat Minos is incredible,” Shanks said seriously.

"I never expected that Minos could fight Kaido to a draw in just a few days," Beckman exclaimed, looking at the newspaper in his hand.

Shanks took the newspaper from Beckman and looked at the scene of Kaido and Minos transforming into twin dragons and fighting, as well as the terrifying scene of the sky being split open at the end.

Shanks knew in his heart that Minos's fighting power had already reached the level of a Yonko.

Beckman looked at Shanks in silence, unsure of what to say.

Suddenly, Shanks said in a deep voice, "It seems I'll have to go see him when he gets to the New World!"

"Have you made up your mind?" Beckman also lost his composure and asked seriously.

Shanks didn't answer Beckman's question, but instead recalled a little kid wearing a straw hat from the East Blue.

a long time.

"I have to see him," Shanks said with a serious expression.

……

New World, Whole Cake Island.

Katakuri stared at the newspaper in his hand, silent. Nothing seemed to affect his composure. However, the way he clenched the newspaper tightly betrayed his inner turmoil.

"Is this true? That brat Minos actually managed to fight Kaido, that monster, to a standstill." Longbread asked incredulously.

Shock and disbelief were evident on Longbread's face. Just a few days ago, he had looked down on Minos, that brat, but now Minos had suddenly become the pseudo-fifth emperor. This huge contrast was hard for him to accept.

"Could this be a deliberate attempt by Morgans to lure people in with false information?" Smoothie calmly analyzed from the side.

"Very likely." Longbread still didn't want to believe it. But the disparity between reality and expectations made it hard to believe.

"Katakuri, what do you think?" the long bread asked anxiously.

Katakuri didn't answer the long bread, but instead looked at the shocking scene of the sky splitting open in the newspaper.

At this moment, Katakuri was convinced that it was a spectacle that only the Overlord could achieve.

Longbread saw that Katakuri didn't answer him, but he wasn't angry. After all, he was the older brother!

"By the way, do you think we should tell Mom about this?" Smoothie asked fearfully.

"Uh, let's forget about it!" Long bread said, glancing at the sleeping old woman with a hint of fear.

"Alright, let's leave it at that! I'll tell Mom myself when she wakes up," Katakuri said in a deep voice.

Then you need to be careful.

P.S.: Oh well, I'll just write it according to my own ideas! (◣_◢)
