One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 346 Kaido bursts into tears
Unlike the fire ritual of the beasts, the tea party of the world invites many guests, so any disturbance that occurs at the tea party will spread throughout the underworld in no time.

Ghost Island.

Kaido burst into tears.

"Woohoo! Lingling! Lingling!"

"Lingling has been defeated!"

"Waaaaah, old woman! Didn't we agree to go and seize the great treasure together? Why did you lose to your own child?!"

“Damn it! Damn it!!!”

Tears streamed down like a fountain.

The pirates were on their guard. It was the first time they had seen their boss Kaido so heartbroken, and they all felt like crying along with him.

Furthermore, the news that Big Mom was defeated by her son Katakuri is indeed quite astonishing, and it's also said that Katakuri defeated the Straw Hat crew.

"it is as expected."

Goode sat not far away.

He had actually had a premonition about what was happening in the world.

Katakuri is top-tier in every way except for his Devil Fruit ability, which is relatively weak. His ability to cultivate Observation Haki to the point of being able to foresee the future demonstrates his amazing talent.

Roger, Garp, Rayleigh
There is more than one powerful individual who has reached the pinnacle without a Devil Fruit!
The only thing limiting him was the older woman. The difference in spirit and mindset between being the captain and standing on his own versus staying under the captain's wing is stark.

"Woohoo, Lingling~~"

Kaido is still crying.

This time, I'm truly heartbroken.

Good was speechless.

According to the message from Stussy, Lingling was only defeated, not dead, and will recover from her injuries soon.

Why are you crying?

"The Straw Hat crew has been defeated, and we don't know if they can escape. We need to think of a way to help them."

Goode pondered to himself.

He has some connections with Katakuri, so if he wants to ask him for help, as long as he is polite, it shouldn't be a problem.

The Cross Guild is currently mainly supported by his funds, so getting them to cooperate isn't a problem.

Only the disobedient golden lion remained.

The old man should step down, but the Straw Hat crew is too unreliable. We need to find someone else to dethrone Shiki and take his place.

So it's just Law and Kidd.

"Bring Ap to see me!"

"Yes!"

Wano Country, below Shogun Castle.

The execution platform is under construction.

"Kozuki Momonosuke has been captured!"

The news of Kozuki Momonosuke's execution was posted on the roof tiles used for posting notices in various villages, immediately causing a great uproar.

In recent years, the lives of the people in various villages have improved a lot, comparable to, or even better than, those under the rule of the Moon Clan, especially in terms of public security.

Unstable elements such as gangsters, mountain bandits, and hooligans are all key targets of the General's Guard, and the thousand-year-old gangster culture has been completely eradicated.

With improved public security, the quality of life immediately improved significantly.

Even with a better life, there are still some old-fashioned people who miss the era when the Kozuki clan ruled Wano Country, especially the five great families who are loyal to Kozuki, and there are signs of them making a comeback.

There are also some remnants of the Kozuki faction.

The night before the fire ceremony.

At the top of the prison where Momonosuke is imprisoned, a bloated body is moving around, searching for the room where Momonosuke is being held.

Mature ninja—A-nin!
She remained in Wano Country, waiting for the opportunity to restore her kingdom twenty years later. She scoffed at the changes in Wano Country, firmly believing that they were all conspiracies and that Kaido would eventually reveal his true colors.

Upon learning of Momonosuke's whereabouts, they rushed over immediately.

On the other side, a tall, slender female warrior with a ponytail hid in the alleyway, keeping a close watch on the prison gate.

Kozuki's retainer - Kiku no Cheng.

"Lord Momonosuke!"

Kikunojo's eyes showed worry, concerned for Momonosuke's safety.

On the day she traveled through time, she stayed in Wano Country to gather information, while the others left Wano Country to seek the support predicted in the prophecy.

The enormous changes in Wano Country shocked her, and she learned the details from Kin'emon's wife, Tsuru.

But I can't understand it.

Until the Fire Festival arrives, Momonosuke and Kin'emon are captured by the beasts and will face execution tomorrow.

This is the last chance for rescue. The guards will be ten times larger tomorrow for the execution.

Heavenly Family Club.

"elder brother."

Xiao Zi stood by the window, gazing in the direction of the prison, tears streaming down her face. She was not skilled in martial arts and could do nothing.

Denjiro, Ashura.
All dead.

"Mwahahaha!"

The irritating laughter grew louder as it approached.

Soon, the maid whispered a message.

"Lord Purple, Lord Quinn has arrived and specifically requests to see you."

"understood."

Xiao Zi wiped away her tears, quickly touched up her makeup, and soon came downstairs with a smile on her face. She pitifully threw herself into Quinn's arms, pouting and complaining.

"Lord Quinn, I've been waiting all this time, thinking you weren't coming."

"Hahaha, Little Purple, I've been quite busy lately with a few tricky prisoners to interrogate. I've missed you so much!"

Quinn hugged Little Purple, beaming with joy.

Even Xiao Zi is fascinated by him; he truly is the most popular!

I'll stay here tonight and go back tomorrow!
At this moment, at the prison gate.

"Qiang!"

The spinning Punisher's Scythe was blocked by Ghost's Cry.

Trafalgar Law!

Kira was panting heavily as he swung his scythe repeatedly.

Luo resisted with a cold face.

"Stop it, Kira! We're not enemies now."

"Stop joking, you lackey who's sided with the beasts!"

Kira unleashes a berserk attack.

It was Law who defeated Kidd, causing them to fall into the hands of the Beasts. Kidd is still in the prison quarry, where he is forced to work every day.

In order to save Kid's life, he and his companions had no choice but to become Beasts' henchmen, and these days they have been dealing with some shady things for Beasts.

They have now been assigned to prison to look after a child.

Trafalgar Law was also in prison.

Enemies are extremely jealous when they meet.

The brief exchange made Kira realize that his close combat skills were superior to Law's, and that Law's most troublesome aspect was his abilities, while his basic combat strength was not particularly outstanding.

Suppress them with all your might, you have a chance of winning!

"Whoosh!"

Luo instantly appeared on the prison roof.

"Don't try to escape!"

Kira leaped up and charged toward Law.

"It's time for the farce to end."

Luo shook his head and raised the Ghostly Cry!

Kira realized something was wrong. Seeing Law's posture as he prepared to swing his sword, he immediately wrapped his weapon with Haki and held it in front of him.

"Cut off!"

As the blade fell, Kira's scythe was severed along with his body.

Luo twirled the blade back into its sheath: "I was only entrusted with this task. If you really want revenge, then go find that man."

He was staying here on the behalf of Goode, who asked him to look after Kozuki Momonosuke and the samurai until the execution was over.

The reward was that all expenses in Wano Country would be paid by Goode.

Although it's not that I'm short of money, it's certainly a good thing to have someone treat me, since going to some high-end places really does cost money like water.

Therefore, he did not refuse.

But to his surprise, Kidd's men were also assigned here, as were Urki's men.

This made Luo suspicious.

That guy isn't trying to trick him, is he?
