Chapter 103 Reverse Bounty and Cruel Punishments
Chapter 103 Reverse Bounty and Cruel Punishments
The Drunken Dragon Eight Trigrams is not Kaido's technique, but a special state in which Kaido is in a drunken state, and his speed and strength are enhanced.
In layman's terms, it's similar to taking an adrenaline injection.
The Drunken Dragon Eight Trigrams form can be considered Kaido's strongest form, representing the level of enemies he faces.
"I was unable to use this move in the battle against Kozuki Oden, and I've always felt a bit of regret about it."
Kaido stood in front of Chu Yang, looking severely injured, but his eyes were bright and alert, showing extreme excitement.
Upon hearing Kaido mention Kozuki Oden, Chu Yang, unusually, did not mock him but instead asked seriously, "Was this your last words? It was shorter than I expected."
Kaido paused, then laughed loudly, "Your last words weren't long either."
As soon as they finished speaking, the two figures vanished simultaneously, transforming into two streaks of black lightning that crashed into each other. The entire Flower Capital shook violently, as if about to fall silent.
Although Kaido and Chu Yang are very different in size, their fighting styles are extremely similar. Both of them follow the path of large-scale attacks and overwhelming force with sheer power.
Kaido wielded the Eight Precepts in his hands, and with each strike, Conqueror's Haki transformed into black lightning that shot forth from the void.
All sorts of deadly moves attacked Chu Yang in the most swift and fierce manner.
Chu Yang, not to be outdone, retaliated with his own blade.
The clash between the slender wooden sword and the spiked club made one worry that the sword might break at any moment.
But the more terrified they were, the more captivating their battle became.
In just a few breaths, the place where the two had passed was left in ruins, the aftershocks of the battle turning everything to dust.
Kaido's body was visibly covered in more wounds.
With both of them possessing equal Conqueror's Haki, Kaido discovered that his prized physical strength was actually no match for Chu Yang's.
The human opposite him, who was many times smaller and thinner, actually endured the Eight Precepts several times with his own body!
After Kaido was pierced through the body by the wooden swords, he was unable to heal his injuries in time. The mysterious powers of the two wooden swords wreaked havoc within his body.
With this ebb and flow, Kaido, in his drunken stupor, gradually fell into a slump. Yet his fighting spirit soared ever higher; he was like a candle nearing the end of its life, burning himself out relentlessly.
Since the God Valley battle decades ago, Kaido has never encountered an enemy as powerful as Chu Yang, one who fills him with despair!
The two sides continued their fierce battle, the constant clash of their dominant colors causing the sky to be covered by dark clouds, creating a suffocating atmosphere that left everyone speechless.
A torrential downpour suddenly struck the City of Flowers.
It is the dragon that is displaying its power.
Quinn has been cornered, and the battle is about to reach its conclusion.
Kaido glanced up at the banquet hall, knowing that if he lost, the Beasts Pirates would be wiped out.
If we were here, the battle wouldn't be so intense.
At least I don't need to worry about the banquet hall.
The enemy had calculated everything from the very beginning, including the timing of their departure from Wano Country.
"Where did you get this information from? Even the World Government doesn't know what's happening in Wano Country—"
This question has been lingering in Kaido's mind ever since Chu Yang appeared. If he might die, he must find out the answer.
Chu Yang smiled and said, "We don't know what happened in Wano Country, nor do we care. We just want to give the Revolutionary Army a new base. This is a good place, with a superior geographical location and abundant resources."
Kaido hadn't expected the enemy's reason for the surprise attack to be so simple; he even thought they had come to save the country.
Long Ke said from the beginning that he came here to liberate this place: "You are different from those people. They are here for ideals, while you are here only for ambition."
Kaido suddenly realized that Chu Yang's starting point was different from Tiger's and the others.
Chu Yang did not deny it, nodding and saying, "That's right, strictly speaking, I am the only 'bad guy' among this group."
Kaido took a deep breath. "In that case, we can cooperate. I can give you anything you want!"
Chu Yang scrutinized Kaido for a while, then shook his head and smiled, "Ambition and ideals can only support each other to reach the end, but when ambition meets ambition, it will only cause conflict and destroy everything."
Seeing that his persuasion had failed, Kaido's face darkened, and he was prepared to fight to the death.
"Let's end all of this, Kaido!"
"Great Vajrabhairava - Thunderous Eight Trigrams!"
As Chu Yang finished speaking, Kaido unleashed his strongest attack, unleashing his last remaining Conqueror's Haki.
The sunlight and moonlight on the two wooden swords no longer alternated, but instead erupted simultaneously, forming a huge millstone that swallowed Kaido whole.
Genji Breathing, Second Form, Sun and Moon in Harmony.
The millstone rolled slowly, obliterating everything under the radiance. Kaido's blood-red body rose like smoke, his blood energy rapidly evaporating.
Before the Eight Precepts could even be struck, they had already disintegrated in mid-air, turning into ashes and vanishing into nothingness.
The blue scales in his human-beast form were crushed to pieces, and before long, Kaido's entire body was covered in blood and gore.
He suddenly knelt down, his body trembling violently, unable to get up.
Kaido finally looked up and glanced at Chu Yang.
Unwilling!
And... a sense of relief!
When the sunlight and moonlight reached their zenith, the broken walls and ruins on the street were completely erased.
All that remains is an empty abyss.
"Boss Kaido?!"
Having been driven to the brink of despair, Queen could no longer see Kaido. He collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon.
Instead of attacking again, Long had his subordinates use the Seastone they had prepared to restrain the opponent.
He walked out of the banquet hall, gazing at the emptiness left by the great battle. He was filled with dread.
What kind of destructive power is this?
Is there really anyone in the world who could withstand that attack?
With Kaido's defeat, even if the remaining crew members of the Beasts Pirates put up a stubborn resistance, they wouldn't be able to hold out for long.
The next step is to deal with Kurozumi Orochi and seize actual control of Wano Country.
Momonosuke Kozuki will have to wait more than ten years to appear. The regional daimyo who are capable of inheriting control have been persecuted by Kaido. As long as the Revolutionary Army does not continue to oppress the civilians of Wano Country, no one will jump out to resist the Revolutionary Army for a while.
The revolutionary army itself did not play the role of rulers; it only needed strongholds and some arsenals.
As the benefactor who saved the country, this request is nothing.
If those martial artists are unwilling to reach a fair and dignified cooperation, then Chu Yang will help them achieve that, although the process will be slightly violent.
During the suppression of the Beasts Pirates, Dragon discovered that they had made contact with the crew who had traveled to Dressrosa and informed them of everything that had happened there.
I believe they will return to provide assistance soon.
But it was too late.
However, the phone call revealed more than just that they would be returning; it seemed that reinforcements were also coming. As for who they were, Chu Yang guessed that they were most likely the Donquixote Family led by Doflamingo.
In just half a day, the banquet hall that Kurozumi Orochi had painstakingly arranged became the temporary meeting hall for Chu Yang and the others.
The table was cleared of all the food, leaving only two maps: one was a rough map of the entire world, and the other was a map of Wano Country.
"After actually taking over Wano Country, I found that its geographical location was much better than I had expected."
Dragon pointed to a vast, empty sea on the large map and said, "This is the location of Wano Country. There are no other countries around it, and even the World Government knows nothing about this place. Moreover, the distance between the two is very far."
Tiger understood and said, "As the battle lines lengthen, the supply lines will also lengthen. Once the fighting starts, it will consume a lot of resources. The World Government will find it difficult to make the decision to annihilate us, because it would require deploying a very large army."
Long laughed and said, "After all, eliminating the forces that defeated the Four Emperors is not something that can be solved with just a Demon Slayer Order."
Ivankov suddenly appeared, grabbing a low-ranking member of the Beasts Pirates and throwing him in front of the group. "This is the guy who tipped off King, but he doesn't seem to know who we are."
The banquet hall was very noisy at the time, and not many people heard Kaido's words. The crew member who tipped him off was responsible for guarding the area outside the banquet hall.
He was knocked down before the battle officially began, and only woke up after Kaido's defeat, when he hurriedly made contact via Den Den Mushi.
"It's better if we don't know, that way we can catch more big fish."
Chu Yang smiled.
After dealing with Kaido, they can conveniently eliminate Doflamingo, effectively taking down both of their criminal businesses in one fell swoop.
Chu Yang still has the complete technology of bloodline factors in his mind. If he gets his hands on Doflamingo's factory, he can try to improve the cultivation technology of artificial Devil Fruits, eliminate the drawbacks, and let the Revolutionary Army soldiers use them.
Zoan-type Devil Fruits possess consciousness, which directly influences the host's personality. Chu Yang wouldn't consider that. Logia-type Devil Fruits are probably the most difficult to create among the three types, so they need to be treated with caution.
Therefore, Chu Yang will first try to create a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit.
"Brother Tiger, I found this guy in the warehouse!"
Jinbe walked in from outside, carrying a person in his hand, in the same posture as Ivankov before.
The person in his hand was none other than Kurozumi Orochi.
The black charcoal serpent's face was ashen.
He is a user of the Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit, Yamata no Orochi, and has eight heads, each with its own consciousness, representing a life.
Orochi originally intended to fake his death to deceive Jinbe, but Jinbe seemed to have known about his abilities all along, beat him half to death, and took him back to the banquet hall.
Jinbe tossed the Orochi in front of Chu Yang and laughed, "If you hadn't reminded me, he might have really fooled me. This guy isn't very capable, but he's got a lot of tricks up his sleeve."
The black charcoal serpent suddenly looked up and stared at Chu Yang, realizing that the other was the one who was sending him to hell.
"Spare me!"
"I can hand over the entire Wano Country to you all, please spare me!"
Looking around, the black charcoal serpent noticed that most people were looking at Chu Yang, so it immediately pounced on the ground and crawled towards Chu Yang's feet.
As soon as he got close, he was kicked away by Chu Yang.
"Take him to the large plaza outside, the place where Kozuki Oden was tortured. Hang him up and hand him over to the common people of Wano Country to deal with. I've heard that many people want to drink his blood and eat his flesh."
The black charcoal serpent trembled violently, then its body convulsed. It knew that there were indeed many people outside the door waiting to use its body to vent their hatred.
Given his status as a user of the Orochi Fruit, if he were to be devoured, the process would likely be exceptionally long, and he would suffer unspeakable pain.
"Please, please don't do this. I'll give you anything you want. I'll even apologize to those poor people. I promise I'll apologize sincerely!"
"Just kill me already! Please, just kill me!"
The black charcoal serpent let out a mournful cry, trying to approach Chu Yang, but was immediately grabbed by the soldiers.
Long nodded slightly, signaling the warriors to do as he was told. So, Kurozumi Orochi was put on a sea stone and escorted to the square of the Flower Capital, where he would face an inhuman and horrific punishment.
The dragon also wanted to know just how much anger and resentment the people here had accumulated.
Publicly executing Kurozumi Orochi was the best way for the revolutionary army to win the hearts and minds of the people.
After dealing with Orochi, everyone sat back down at the conference table. Chu Yang pointed to the edge of the Wano Country map, to the waterfall area where they had landed.
"Everyone came from this place, so they should understand its importance. I hope the Sun Pirates will be responsible for its defense."
Murlocs possess the ability to communicate and control fish, making them ideal for guarding the waterfall area in front of the mountain. As long as they prevent enemies from launching large-scale attacks on the island, they can remain invincible.
In a battle against a select few elites, Chu Yang would take care of each one who came.
Tiger agreed with Chu Yang's suggestion. He had thought about this issue during the process of landing on the island, and the fishmen were indeed very suitable for this mission.
Besides, most of the civilians in Wano Country are still very wary of these people, especially the fish-men whose appearance is obviously different from humans.
The common people of Wano Country have never seen fish-men before, so there is no discrimination against them. However, out of their instinct to protect themselves and survive, they will definitely treat them with hostility. This is an objective fact.
If the two sides stay together for a short period of time, a significant conflict is likely to break out. The fishmen also have radicals like Arlong, which will definitely exacerbate the conflict.
The Sun Pirates' temporary stay at the waterfall and along the coast helps ease tensions between the two sides.
It's believed that before long, when everyone realizes that the fishmen have come to help them, Tiger and the others will receive their first equal treatment from humans here.
"How many of those weapons factories within Wano Country should be retained?"
"If not handled properly, it could become a source of conflict between us and the residents of Wano Country."
Tiger asked the most sensitive question, because these weapons factories were the most important reason why Chu Yang persuaded the Revolutionary Army to come to Wano Country.
"Most of them will definitely need to be demolished. If that can't be done, then liberating this country will be just empty talk, which goes against the original intention of the revolutionary army."
Dragon's tone was unexpectedly resolute. Both Chu Yang and Tiger thought he would hesitate on this matter, because weapons were related to the growth of the Revolutionary Army.
I never expected the dragon to be so enlightened; he truly deserves to be called a revolutionary fighter!
Tiger's expression softened, and Chu Yang also smiled more; neither of them wanted to let this matter shake the alliance's relationship.
"We've covered most of what needed to be discussed; now there's just one last thing left."
Just when everyone thought the meeting could be adjourned, Chu Yang suddenly spoke up: "We have a near-perfect base. Now it's time to take a more proactive approach to resist the World Government."
A proactive approach?
Dragon and Tiger exchanged a glance. One of them was liberating countries everywhere, while the other was spreading rumors about the Celestial Dragons' activities of capturing slaves.
Is there a more radical way than this?
Chu Yang's eyes were bright and piercing.
"From today onwards, we will place bounties on the Navy and the World Government, just as they have always done!"
Bounties offered to the Navy and the World Government?
Everyone gasped.
For centuries, it has been the world governments that have offered bounties to others, but now the tables have turned?
The hall fell silent.
Tiger suddenly burst into laughter, feeling extremely pleased with himself. "As expected of you, you actually thought of something like this."
A hint of excitement flashed in Shi Long's eyes; he also found Chu Yang's suggestion very interesting.
"If those high and mighty Celestial Dragons woke up one morning to find that they had a bounty on their heads, their expressions would be quite interesting."
Ivankov couldn't help but chuckle.
"Just thinking about it makes the scene very interesting."
Jinbe burst into laughter.
Even Aaron, who always had a stern face, had a slow smile on his lips, no longer looking like the whole world owed him Pelé.
"Then it's decided. Once we deal with King, we'll immediately create a bounty and make the Celestial Dragons a laughingstock of the whole world."
Everyone nodded in agreement, and in the end, Long slammed his hand on the table to make the decision.
Chu Yang knew that once this bounty was issued, the arrogant Celestial Dragons would send a steady stream of people to their deaths.
Whether it's the CPO they value so highly or the Navy, they will both be swallowed up by Wano Country's invisible mouth.
During the Great Pirate Era, with the Navy severely lacking manpower, they would have even less time to attend to the Revolutionary Army's land-based operations.
This is a slow poison that will hasten the downfall of the Celestial Dragons.
Sunset in the evening.
Orochi had been standing on the plaza for some time, surrounded by a crowd, but no one dared to approach him or do anything to him.
Above the resentment and anger, there was also a layer of fear of Kurozumi Orochi, whose brutal methods over the years had accumulated considerable power.
They stared intently at the black charcoal serpent, neither moving forward nor leaving.
With his mental defenses on the verge of collapse, Orochi could only glare angrily, trying to intimidate the civilians.
The two sides have entered a strange stalemate.
It wasn't until after the meeting ended and Chu Yang and the others left the Great Serpent City that they saw this scene in the square.
Chu Yang shook his head in disappointment and slowly walked towards Kurozumi Orochi. When the Orochi saw him, its long-standing aura of confrontation with the commoner finally broke down.
The black charcoal serpent cursed loudly, then, seeing Chu Yang approaching, it changed its tone and began to beg for mercy, tears streaming down its face. Where was the local tyrant's prestige now?
The civilians watching felt a chill run down their spines.
Someone who can make Orochi so afraid must be just as terrifying as Kaido, right?
Chu Yang's subsequent actions confirmed their suspicions.
He used his palm as a knife to chop off one of the arms of the black charcoal serpent, then casually threw it in front of the civilians, who immediately retreated three feet.
Not to mention them, even their companions felt a chill run down their spines.
Chu Yang didn't say anything more.
He gave the group of civilians a cold, wary look, and then left amidst the pitiful cries of Kurozumi Orochi.
A moment later, a woman emerged from the crowd. Her eyes were numb, her face withered, as if she were about to die.
But the moment she saw the black charcoal snake's flesh and blood, a terrifying cold light suddenly flashed in the woman's eyes, and she pounced on it like a vicious wolf, tearing at it frantically.
The common people nearby all recognized the woman; all her children had died from hunger and cold due to the oppression of the Kurozumi Orochi.
As the woman's actions provoked everyone, more and more people joined in the act of devouring flesh and blood. Some were driven by hatred, while others were simply hungry. Soon, their arms were gone. These civilians naturally focused their attention on the black charcoal serpent, who was terrified and unable to speak.
They approached slowly, expressionless, their eyes glowing red, like a motley crew of survivors in the apocalypse.
Screams! Curses! Lamentations!
The tragedy, which lasted for more than a decade, finally came to an end when the cries of the black charcoal serpent were completely drowned out by the sounds of being devoured.
Starting today, Chu Yang will also have a new nickname in private: "King of Hell".
The public execution, a form of venting anger, immediately established the image of the revolutionary army and accelerated the process of friendly relations between the two sides.
As news of Orochi and Kaido's deaths spread throughout Wano Country, the Flower Capital was flooded with crowds within days.
Some people admired the mangled body of the giant black snake in the square, while others went to the quarry to watch the Beasts Pirates crew working hard.
They verified the authenticity of the message in different ways, and then spontaneously traveled around to spread the good news.
A large number of weapons factories were destroyed, and the remaining ones could not pollute the environment of Wano Country. Chu Yang used Wood Release to quickly restore the natural vitality of the surrounding area.
Before long, the flower capital was in full bloom again.
The Great Serpent City became the revolutionary army's temporary base.
The Shogun's mansion was returned to the people of Wano Country by the Revolutionary Army; how they use it is their business.
Everyone unanimously chose to silently protect the area until a new general appeared. At the same time, they gradually accepted the Revolutionary Army's control over the place. With the help of the Revolutionary Army, the lives of ordinary people in the Flower Capital are gradually returning to normal.
Post-war reconstruction has always been one of their strengths.
A fortress-like town is quietly being built at the waterfall mouth, which will serve as the first line of defense, and Chu Yang and the Sun Pirates will be stationed here for a long time.
Because the memories he had left on the common people were too deep, Chu Yang felt that he should stay away from them for a while.
Most importantly, he couldn't stand the indifferent looks in those people's eyes, which made him uncontrollably angry.
He won't show up until things recover there.
A week after the post-war reconstruction, samurai began to appear near the Flower Capital. They were intentionally or unintentionally making contact with the Revolutionary Army, trying to understand their intentions.
With a mixture of skepticism and hope, the samurai and the revolutionaries sat down at the negotiating table.
Led by the young Hiyori Kozuki, Denjiro, one of the former Nine Red Scabbards who goes by the alias Kyoshiro, is the main negotiator, along with Shimotsuki Yasuie, the daimyo of the Hakumai region who has been living in seclusion for many years.
Neither Denjiro nor Shimotsuki Yasuie believed that negotiations could regain control of Wano Country; they weren't that naive.
The two only hoped that Hiyori Kozuki could regain her title, remain in the shogun's mansion, and gain the people's recognition through her own efforts in the future.
Judging from the revolutionary army's performance during this period, they are trustworthy, and even if no agreement is reached, their lives will not be threatened.
To their surprise, the Revolutionary Army readily agreed to their request and offered to assist in rebuilding Wano Country.
The scheming and deception he had anticipated before his arrival did not materialize, which made Denjiro feel particularly ashamed.
Shimotsuki Yasuie voluntarily made concessions, representing Kozuki Hiyori as an ally, and provided the Revolutionary Army with many conveniences to facilitate their operations within Wano Country.
The two sides hit it off.
When news of Hiyori Kozuki's return to the Shogun's mansion spread, a large number of samurai scattered across various regions regrouped, forming a formidable force.
This force will also help Chu Yang and others fight against the World Government.
After the Beasts Pirates were attacked, they did not immediately rush to their aid, but instead used Doflamingo's connections to gather information.
As the heads of the underground black market, the Don Quixote family has always been exceptional in its intelligence capabilities regarding war, and they are always on the lookout for the movements of powerful forces.
King suspects Whitebeard because Kozuki Oden was once the captain of his second division. If Whitebeard knew about Wano Country, it's possible he attacked the Beast Pirates.
The Whitebeard Pirates also have the ability to defeat the Beasts Pirates head-on.
But as more and more information came into his hands, he discovered that the whole thing had nothing to do with Whitebeard; the man had been staying in his own territory and hadn't moved an inch.
If Whitebeard didn't go, then it's even less likely that his captains would go to Wano Country; even if they did, they wouldn't stand a chance.
"The World Government has a deal with us, there's no reason for them to suddenly turn their backs on us, and the Navy has been very quiet all along—"
Chi thought for a moment, then turned his gaze to "Auntie" Charlotte Linlin, but the result was still the same.
So who exactly is it?
There was no answer, but I could no longer sit and do nothing.
Since the older woman isn't the mastermind, they can join forces.
With that in mind, Jin took the initiative to contact Charlotte Linlin, who was far away on Whole Cake Island in the Land of the Rising Sun. After paying a sufficiently high price, he obtained a powerful ally.
If Kaido is killed, everything the Beasts Pirates own will cease to exist. Only if Kaido lives can the Beasts Pirates rise again at any time.
The cost is only temporary.
"For something this important, please take me with you, okay?"
Just as they were preparing to leave Dressrosa, Doflamingo approached them and asked to go to Wano Country together.
"What are you planning?"
"We're partners, so of course I have to show my support since Kaido is in trouble."
Chi frowned.
He stared coldly at Doflamingo, not believing the other party would be that kind.
This is the fact.
Doflamingo simply wanted to confirm the outcome of the war.
If the Beasts Pirates win, everything will remain the same, and they might even gain some goodwill.
But if Wano Country changes hands, he'll have to negotiate a new business deal and find new partners. Of course, in either case, he won't be the loser.
With Big Mom's strong support, King didn't care about Doflamingo's stance, but having more combat power was always a good thing, so he nodded in agreement to her request.
Back at the royal palace in Dressrosa, the Don Quixote family's executives appeared.
"I'm telling you, Dover, do we really have to get involved in this? It feels dangerous."
As one of the high-ranking officers, Torrepol's image was quite awful; he was always snotty-nosed, like a sleazy old man. "Idiot, how could you not go and check? Our weapons factory is still there. If something goes wrong, who will be responsible?!"
Diamanti sat on the sofa, his hands clasped together, his chin resting on his hand, his face grim. The underground black market had been out of stock for some time, and further delays in the transaction would likely lead to serious problems.
Upon hearing this, Doflamingo slowly took a bottle of red wine from the counter and popped the cork off.
"Gulp~ Gulp~"
The entire bottle of red wine was quickly downed into Doflamingo's stomach. He wiped his mouth, revealing a creepy smile, his expression resembling that of the Joker card in a deck of cards.
"I don't care who wins or loses this war, but if anything goes wrong at the weapons factory, they'd better prepare for my revenge!"
The country of peace.
With a large amount of manpower and resources, the Waterfall Fortress was quickly completed. As an important gateway related to the safety of Wano Country, it was highly valued by everyone.
Although it is called a fortress, its architectural style is actually consistent with that of the Flower Capital, and it is a magnificent nine-story pavilion.
Chu Yang named it "Feiliu Pavilion"!
Most of the Sun Pirates crew members lived on the lower three floors of the Flying Pavilion because it was close to the pirate ships in the port, so they could immediately go into battle if anything happened.
Tiger, Jinbe, and Arlong all lived on the middle floor. Chu Yang noticed that the fish-men didn't seem to like high places.
Chu Yang lived alone on the top floor.
Holding onto the railing and gazing at the sea of clouds in the distance, Chu Yang always felt a sense of "wanting to see a thousand miles further," which he liked very much, so he often stood here.
Another advantage is that, with his sharp eyesight and domineering presence, standing at such a high vantage point, he can spot enemies even faster than surveillance cameras.
The secret passage in the back mountain has been destroyed by Chu Yang, so people outside can only pass through this road.
"We have guests."
Chu Yang was still wondering how long it would take for Jin to return when a shadow suddenly appeared on the horizon—a giant pterosaur wrapped in black leather.
It looks quite funny at first glance.
Chu Yang's lips curled up in a smile.
King flew around Wano Country and saw the magnificent pavilion built on top of the waterfall, as well as the weapons factories that should have been lined up, now completely empty.
The mountains, rivers, and vegetation have been revitalized, and the sky and river water have become exceptionally clear and transparent.
All signs indicate that the Beasts Pirates seem to have become history.
Jin couldn't accept it, nor did he want to believe it.
He flew to the back mountain and tried to enter through the secret passage. Since no one opened the mechanism for him, he used brute force to destroy the obstacles.
As a result, he found that the road inside was completely blocked and impossible to pass through.
Kaido will definitely not block this secret passage.
There's only one answer—the winner isn't Kaido!
Extreme grief and anger almost drove King mad. He restrained himself from thinking the worst and immediately flew out of the back mountain, back to the front mountain waterfall, and reunited with the Big Mom Pirates.
"How was it? Can we get through the secret passage you mentioned?"
Doflamingo walked up to the man with a nonchalant expression. If he could, he wished his gaze could penetrate the mask and see the man's expression.
Jin slowly shook his head. "The passage is blocked. We can only go up from here."
Doflamingo looked up at the waterfall. "It seems we're the only ones who can get up here. As for the others—."
Just as I was about to answer the other person's question, a voice suddenly came from the side.
"Fish will do." The newcomer was tall and slender, wearing a pale yellow long coat, a candy hat, and carrying a candy cane.
This man is Perospero, the eldest son of Charlotte Linlin, one of the Four Emperors, and the Minister of Candy on Whole Cake Island.
Perospero pointed to his own pirate ship, the Queen Mother Anthem, where several carp were already tied up.
Doflamingo, who came alone to lend a hand, was happy to watch the show from the sidelines, since he only intended to show up but not actually do anything.
The fleet, being dragged along by the giant fish, began to climb the waterfall.
Chi transformed into a pterosaur once more and flew to the top of the waterfall, intending to clear a path for everyone.
He was well aware of the consequences of being attacked during this process.
That pavilion standing atop the waterfall was simply unpleasant to look at.
The Sun Pirates discovered an intruder through their surveillance cameras, and all crew members immediately went into battle mode.
Tiger climbed onto the deck and shouted, "The enemy is strong, but we can't back down! We must stop them from landing! Reinforcements will arrive soon!"
Having recently defeated the Beasts Pirates, and with the sea being their home turf, the crew members were extremely confident.
"They chose to land on the island the same way we did! That's a very foolish decision. We need to show them why the fish-men are called fish-men."
After saying a few encouraging words, Tiger ordered the boat to set sail and aimed its cannons at the waterfall.
The Murlocs' fighting style is not limited to ships. As mentioned before, the sea is their home ground, and most of the Murlocs jumped into the sea.
"Remember, prioritize controlling the fish. Let those people's boats get out of control; they'll fall in on their own!"
Jinbe led his companions into the sea and slowly approached the waterfall cliff.
"Brother Tiger, there seems to be something in the sky—"
"Was it a large black bird?"
"No, it's a pterosaur! It's charging towards Feiliu Pavilion!"
"Don't worry, Yang is still up there!"
Tiger took out his binoculars, placed them on the bridge of his nose, and looked up. A pterosaur flew overhead. He noticed that the pterosaur was wrapped in black leather, clearly a power user.
"It's King, Kaido's subordinate!"
Tiger took a deep breath and shook his head, saying, "Ignore him. We just need to make sure we take down all the enemies climbing the waterfall. Leave the rest to Yang!"
Meanwhile, after flying to the top floor of the pavilion, they suddenly discovered a figure standing there.
The man smiled at him, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
"It took you so long to get here? I thought you'd given up on your captain, or maybe the world is too big and you got lost?"
Chu Yang yawned listlessly.
Jin stared at Chu Yang, a strong premonition in his heart that this person must be related to the life and death of Kaido.
"Where is Boss Kaido?"
Jin suppressed his anger and asked in a cold voice.
"He's dead."
Chu Yang answered casually.
"Impossible! I'll ask you one more time, where is Boss Kaido?!"
Chi could not accept this answer; he was on the verge of exploding with rage and ready to launch an attack at any moment.
Are you naive or simply unable to accept reality?
"Since I'm standing here, it's bound to be Kaido who dies. Do I really need to repeat such a simple logic several times?"
Chu Yang shook his head in disappointment.
With Kaido's fate unknown and Chu Yang's attitude, Kaido's anger finally reached its limit. He soared into the sky like a fighter jet, quickly rising before swooping down towards Chu Yang on the top floor of the attic.
Chu Yang stepped onto the railing and soared into the sky!
His entire body transformed into a white streak and rushed towards the rotten body, ascending at a speed even faster than Jin's descent.
His pupils contracted slightly, but he didn't think of dodging. He was a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user; how could he possibly lose to an ordinary person in a physical contest?
Chi's body began to burn, bursting into flames. This was a talent of the Lunaria race and had nothing to do with Devil Fruits.
"Emperor Dan Gong!"
Chi spread its wings and used the flame-covered wings to strike Chu Yang, who was flying at high speed in mid-air.
at the same time.
Chu Yang's entire body crackled with lightning as he entered the state of Lightning Armor.
He bent his arm at a ninety-degree angle, like a sickle.
Blackwing and arm collided, sparks flying, and lightning extinguished the flames on Chi's body.
Chi could actually smell a burnt aroma from his own wings.
Click!
The sound of bones cracking rang out.
He groaned in pain, his eyes filled with disbelief.
How can this person's body be so hard?!
Stronger than a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user?!
Jin was both shocked and furious.
Since his physical body was not an advantage, he simply abandoned his pterosaur form and transformed into a humanoid form.
In his human-beast form, Jhin's arms and wings merged, transforming into even larger black wings, and with a wave of his hand, dozens of incredibly powerful wind blades were unleashed.
Seeing the wind blades coming, Chu Yang did not dodge. The wind blades hit him as if rain was falling on the eaves, dripping and pattering, without leaving any marks.
"Get down!"
Chu Yang appeared above him in a flash and stomped hard on his forehead.
The impact to his head was so severe that Jin's vision went black, and he fell unconscious, plummeting from the sky.
"How did Ember fall from the sky?" Everyone on the Queen Mother's Hymn was stunned.
Charlotte Linlin, who didn't look too bulky at the time, frowned and said, "Could it have been shot down?"
Doflamingo, always eager for chaos, laughed loudly, "Getting beaten up on your own turf, that's quite embarrassing, King."
Perospero cautioned, "Mocking your allies isn't a good habit, Doflamingo."
Doflamingo laughed and said, "You have a problem with that?"
The atmosphere was tense and strained, with tension between the two.
"That's enough. Don't let the enemy laugh at us. I remember you came here to help, right, Doflamingo?"
Charlotte Linlin gave Doflamingo a disapproving look, reminding him to be careful.
"Of course, the Beasts Pirates are my closest partners!"
Doflamingo lowered his stance and took a step back at the opportune moment.
However, he had already made a mental note of it and planned to retaliate another day. Just as the argument was taking place on the boat, no one noticed that the big fish pulling the boat had begun to secretly change direction.
It turns out the fishmen have already infiltrated beneath the fleet.
The fish-men used their ability to communicate with fish to control the giant fish and secretly disrupt their routes. Before long, several pirate ships collided.
Charlotte Linlin didn't notice the strange behavior of the big fish until the Queen Mother Hymn was spinning wildly!
"Be careful, everyone! There's something strange down below the ship!"
Charlotte Linlin simply summoned Zeus, who lifted her up and made her float in the air.
As a user of the Soul-Soul Fruit, Charlotte Linlin can imbue anything with a soul, creating special life forms that she calls "Homies".
Zeus was a thundercloud imbued with a soul.
Besides these, there is also the flame with a soul—Prometheus the sun; and the bicorn hat with a soul—Napoleon!
These special "Homies" possess incredibly powerful abilities, allowing Charlotte Linlin to gain the upper hand in battles against her enemies.
Zeus carried Charlotte Linlin into the sky, and the next second, the Queen Mother Anthem crashed violently into another pirate ship.
The violent impact caused many crew members on deck to fall into the sea, while the pirate ship was severely damaged, with seawater rapidly pouring into the cabins through the breaches.
Doflamingo used thin threads embedded in the cliff faces on both sides of the waterfall to build steps, allowing him to walk in the air without being affected by the water.
The sudden rampage of the giant fish caused nearly half of the pirate ships to fall off the waterfall, while the remaining half could only struggle to hold on.
Charlotte Linlin knew that if things continued like this, the entire fleet might be destroyed, so she directly poured her soul into the waterfall, and a human face immediately appeared in the waterfall.
Charlotte Linlin shouted, "Take us up!"
"Okay, Mom."
The waterfall-shaped face actually responded to her!
Then the water flow reversed, carrying the pirate ship up!
