One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 353 Pirates on the Move!
Once the old woman returned to the cabin, Goode and Katakuri quietly left and headed side by side to the port of Whole Cake Island.

There's one last thing left.

Goode raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"The Straw Hat crew escaped?"

"Yes."

Katakuri's face darkened: "My subordinate Capone Bege let the Straw Hat crew go, and they left Whole Cake Island with the Straw Hats!"

"Huh? Becky saved the Straw Hat?"

Goode was even more surprised.

He had met Capone Becky, a typical mafia boss who, by all accounts, wouldn't risk saving the Straw Hat crew.

But he did it anyway.

Does the Straw Hat Boy really have the power to attract others?

"What a shame!"

Katakuri's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "That kid Bege is an important cadre of our Whole Cake Island, and also the husband of my sister Chiffon. His betrayal has caught everyone off guard."

Although Becky has only been with World of Warcraft for two years, she has gained her mother's favor due to her outstanding courage and ruthless methods; otherwise, Chiffon would not have been married to Becky.

Marriage alliances with powerful nations are the highest-level means of winning over other nations.

Therefore, Whole Cake Island was completely unprepared for Becky's betrayal, and even the Poneglyphs were secretly stolen by Becky during the tea party when the defenses were lax.

Katakuri took out a newspaper.

"This is today's newspaper."

"Let me see."

Goode flipped through the newspaper.

[The Most Evil Alliance!]

The headline news featured Trafalgar Law leading a group of four supernovas: Urouge, Kira, Apoo, and Hawkins, forming the "Worst Generation Supernova League."

Abbreviated as the Most Evil Alliance.

The target is Beehive Island!
Katakuri pressed for an answer.

"You orchestrated the Most Evil Alliance, didn't you?"

"That's it."

Goode readily admitted it.

It was indeed his arrangement, especially with Apoo and Hawkins. Besides adding some intermediate combat power to Law, there was another reason.

The two were once supernovas, but their strength is not even comparable to that of the Flying Six, leaving them far behind the other supernovas.

A sum of three or four hundred million was not of much use to him, so he arranged for the two of them to be with Law, so that they could challenge the Four Emperors and compete against each other.

Only in this way can their potential be unleashed.

Goode continued flipping through the newspaper.

Straw Hat Luffy and Bege also appeared in the newspaper, seemingly forming an alliance and clearly about to take action, though it's unclear who they've set their sights on.

In addition, as if by unspoken agreement, various forces launched their own operations, including the Cross Guild, with President Buggy making a very high-profile appearance.

This means that the final battle has begun.

Goode's lips curled into a smile.

Katakuri frowned.

"You seem to be in a good mood?"

"It's really good."

Good smiled.

The pirates began their operation; even if the Straw Hats didn't find the last piece of the road sign text, the other pirates would surely find it.

The tide of the times is moving forward!
"I go first."

Goode got up and left.

Having achieved their goal of coming to Whole Cake Island, all they need to do now is follow the Straw Hat crew and wait, or they can head to their final destination, Narcissus Island.

To find the One Piece, they need four key inscriptions, so the Straw Hat crew will eventually have to challenge the Beasts Pirates.

On the other side, in the waters near Victory Island.

The Evil Alliance fleet is advancing at full speed. Once they pass Victory Island, they will soon reach their destination, Beehive Island.

The captains stood on the deck, gazing at the distant sea, their hearts filled with a long-lost surge of emotion, especially Hawkins.

His subordinates ran over.

"Captain, the wind and waves are getting bigger and bigger. Shall we go back to the cabin?"

"It's ok."

Hawkins shook his head and refused.

On this expedition, unusually, he did not consult the oracle.

Upon arriving in the New World, facing the oppression of the Four Emperors and having foreseen the inevitable end, he ultimately chose to join the Beasts Pirates. Seeing Kid and his crew storm Onigashima and challenge Kaido, though they were killed, filled him with envy.

When he first entered the New World, he was just as ambitious as Kid, but the harsh reality crushed him, forcing him to compromise.

However, after the fire ritual, Goode found him and asked him to join Luo in pursuing his long-dormant dream!

"Let's go find the Great Treasure."

A simple sentence reignited his dormant spirit.

He wants to fight again!
To prevent himself from making another cowardly choice, he, who relied on divination, abandoned the divination results this time and chose to be willful this time.

Because this could very well be the last chance of his life.

"Hahaha!!!"

A loud laugh came from the sky, and then a shadow fell over the sky.

The captains rushed to the deck, looking up at the fleet in the sky and the man floating in front of it.

"It's the Flying Pirates!"

"Shiki the Golden Lion has appeared!"

"Ready to fight!"

No one expected that they would be attacked so soon after leaving Wano Country; clearly, the Flying Pirates were waiting for them.

Luo was directing the captains.

"Full speed ahead! The road is very close from here, just to the northeast!"

"understand!"

The enemy has air superiority and a longer artillery range; if they stay at sea, they are no different from targets.

Once on land, at least they can use the cover for defense, and if the Flying Pirates' large army comes out, they can also show off their skills on the island.

Several pirate crews started their external gears and headed at full speed towards Victory Island.

"Hahaha, don't even think about escaping!"

The golden lion laughed loudly upon seeing this and waved his finger.

All the ships immediately changed course and chased after the Worst Alliance, and the pirate captains under the Golden Lion also appeared one after another.

Shiliu of the Rain, "Big Wine" Choate, "Yin Yue" Fan Oka, etc.

After Shiki took control of Beehive Island, his influence soared. Almost all the powerful figures who were unwilling to join the Beasts as ordinary officers chose to join Shiki's ranks, especially Blackbeard's former subordinates.

They quite liked the team's equally ruthless style.

Shiryu, with a cigar in his mouth, drew his sword.

Murderous intent was stirring.

"We don't have a single inscription on the road markers; we're so far behind!"

The struggle for the inscriptions on the road monuments began after Roger's death, which gave Big Mom and Kaido a significant advantage.

It's almost certain that the two of them possess the Roadstone Inscription, and since the Worst League just left Wano Country, they might be carrying the Roadstone Inscription with them.

"Hahaha, prepare for landing!"

Golden Lion laughed as he maneuvered the fleet, which soon landed on the sea, and then continued to pursue the Worst Alliance.

Back when he was vying with Roger, he suffered a loss because he didn't pay attention to the inscriptions on the road signs, allowing Roger to become the Pirate King first.

This time, he won't fall behind.

The golden lion lands above the lion's head, pointing towards the Isle of Victory.

"attack!"

"Oh oh oh!!!"

Islands, coastlines.

Luo held a knife in his right hand, while a clear blue halo emanated from his left.

"Everyone, are you ready?!"

"I've been waiting for this for so long!"

Hawkins and the other three captains, along with the Heart Pirates and their subordinates, all wore sinister smiles.

Even the Killer Pirates are no exception!

The loss of their captain left them dejected, but as pirates, they shouldn't dwell on the past. Pirates must be prepared to die at any moment, and they had lost many companions along the way.

They are pirates.

Moving forward is what they should be doing.

Moreover, Mr. Kira is still alive and can serve as captain to lead them, and Law's flag can also guide them.

Luo's poker face broke into a smile.

"Everyone, if we win this battle, we'll get our tickets to the Great Treasure. Let's give it our all!"

"Oh oh oh!!!"
