Who told him to become the Pirate King!

Chapter 318 Who made him the Pirate Emperor!

The New World, Wano Country, Onigashima.

In recent days, the atmosphere on Oni Island has been as heavy as that of the northern cemetery in the Reigo region.

Since Kaido of the Beasts ended his "expedition" and returned to Wano Country, the remaining members of the Beasts Pirates on Onigashima have suffered.

Everyone remembers clearly that when Kaido of the Beasts left, he originally wanted to emulate the Red Dragon Emperor and cause a ruckus in the Sabaody Archipelago.

However, the Beasts Pirates have not received any relevant intelligence or information.

Until Kaido of the Beasts returned to Wano Country, the Sabaody Archipelago was still fine—at least, it was fine according to the World Economic Journal.

Within the Beasts Pirates, some of the underlings were initially curious about Kaido's actions and took the initiative to inquire about the situation.

Then, no more...

After Kaido of the Beasts melted an entire Beasts Pirates crew's underlings with a single "Heat Breath," no other underlings dared to mess with their governor.

In recent days, Kaido's state has been even more terrifying than his "drunken slaughter" state.

Let's just say that.

In the past few days.

More members of the Beasts Pirates died at the hands of Kaido of the Beasts than at the hands of the Kozuki Clan!

Even in such a dangerous situation, Kaido of the Beasts did not forget to give orders to his subordinates—

Any information about the Big Mom Pirates must be delivered to him as quickly as possible!

Today, the World Economic Daily's "big news" has reached Ghost Island.

"Big Mom was defeated... No wonder the governor was acting so strangely..."

King, the Great General of the Beasts Pirates, carrying a freshly printed copy of the World Journal, sets off to find Kaido of the Beasts.

Currently, among the Beasts Pirates, only King the Wildfire and Queen the Plague, the two true "veteran members," dare to casually approach Kaido of the Beasts.

The rest of the people, including the newly appointed Drought Jack, dared not go to see their boss at this time.

People can really die!

King the Wildfire, carrying a newspaper, went to Kaido's room.

As soon as he entered, he smelled an extremely strong odor of alcohol.

It's the kind of scent that would make an ordinary person feel intoxicated after just one whiff.

How much alcohol did Kaido drink?

King, hidden beneath his black mask, frowned as he approached Kaido of the Beasts, newspaper in hand.

"Brother Kaido."

Jhin the Wildfire addressed his leader with great affection, even though his tone remained cold.

"The news about the Big Mom Pirates that you requested has been delivered."

"Orororo..."

Kaido of the Beasts let out a low, indistinct laugh; he had already recognized the newcomer's identity from the voice.

"Jin, it's you..."

Kaido of the Beasts strained his bleary, drunken eyes to try and make out the contents of the World Journal in King's hand, but he could only see a blurry, indistinct print.

"Lingling... how is that old woman, Lingling?"

"I don't know, but it probably won't be good."

"Jin the Flame said in a calm tone."

"The White Dragon defeated Big Mom and occupied Totto Land, the Kingdom of Treasure. The World Economic Journal even changed his title—"

"White Dragon Emperor".

"Lingling... Lingling!!"

Kaido of the Beasts took another big gulp of sake, the rich liquid overflowing from the corners of his mouth and soaking his clothes.

"You're too weak...we're too weak..."

King the Wildfire watched Kaido of the Beasts weeping bitterly, but didn't notice anything unusual.

My eldest son started crying uncontrollably when he got drunk...

This would seem incredibly bizarre if it happened to any other great pirate.

But that's just Kaido's personality.

Let alone "crying," Kaido of the Beasts sometimes even "acts cute" when he's drunk!

That's truly an eyesore!

As for the few words that Kaido of the Beasts is saying now.

Jin the Wildfire didn't take it seriously either.

Who would take a drunkard's words seriously?

Just as the Flame Disaster was lost in thought.

But then Kaido of the Beasts suddenly spoke.

"Jhin... I might have met the real Joey Boy..."

Joey Boy?

The moment this unusual name appeared, Jhin the Wildfire's attention was drawn back.

"Brother Kaido, isn't Joy Boy a legendary figure?"

"Yes, but... Joey Boy will return. He will return carrying the destiny of eight hundred years..."

Kaido of the Beasts muttered words that ordinary people could not understand.

"I thought I would be Joey Boy, but... that man... the White Dragon... his power really is like that of Joey Boy from mythology..."

Kaido of the Beasts originally thought he would be the strongest.

but.

In a one-on-one fight, he was no match for Bai Long.

They joined forces with Big Mom to fight the White Dragon, but were instead driven away by him...

The power of the white dragon is unmatched!

Kaido thought to himself.

Through these words, King the Wildfire sensed the wavering resolve of his leader.

This is very rare.

In the past, King the Wildfire had also encountered pirates whose will had wavered.

For example, the Gecko Moria Pirates, who stormed into Wano Country but were utterly defeated and nearly wiped out by their own leader.

Back then, Gecko Moria fled Wano Country like a stray dog ​​with its spine broken, carrying a coffin.

That scene was etched in Jhin's memory.

But at this moment.

King the Wildfire inexplicably saw the shadow of Gecko Moria in Kaido of the Beasts.

illusion!

This must be an illusion!

This must be because the strong smell of alcohol around me made me confused, causing me to have a hallucination!

King of Flames subconsciously dismissed his earlier thought.

"Brother Kaido, you are the real Joy Boy."

"Jin the Flame said solemnly."

"The man sitting atop the throne of 'Strongest in the Ocean' is still you."

No, that's not it.

Kaido of the Beasts was deeply hurt by King the Wildfire's words.

"Jin, I'm so sorry, I've disappointed you..."

Kaido of the Beasts did not elaborate on his experiences in Whole Cake Island.

He also didn't tell King the Wildfire the truth that he and Charlotte Linlin, working together, were defeated by White Dragon alone...

This is so shameful.

Kaido of the Beasts took another swig of sake.

Since things have come to this, let's just have a drink...

King the Wildfire saw Kaido of the Beasts shrouded in a dejected will, but he still couldn't understand.

Big Mom is very strong.

He was once Kaido's senior.

However, Big Mom has already been defeated by White Dragon.

Even if Kaido feels sad, he shouldn't feel depressed, right?

Is it because of this man?

Flame of Destruction looked at the man's photo in the newspaper.

White Dragon...

……

The three pirate emperors of the New World were all deeply shocked by Big Mom's defeat.

The other forces on the high seas were no less shocked than these Emperor Pirates.

Paradise, Impel Down.

"Hehehehe!"

Gecko Moria was reading today's newspaper when he couldn't help but burst into a sharp laugh.

"That Vongola Storm guy actually defeated Big Mom!"

Magellan, the warden of Impel Down, who was also reading the newspaper nearby, immediately cast a disapproving glance at him.

"Gecko Moria! How much longer are you going to stay in Impel Down? This place doesn't welcome a Shichibukai like you!"

"I'm leaving today! You don't need to rush me!"

Gecko Moria stood up, and three peculiar shadows merged directly into his body.

At this moment, the intensity of the aura emanating from Gecko Moria was in no way inferior to Magellan beside him, and might even be greater.

Magellan sensed the change in Gecko Moria's aura and couldn't help but frown.

He didn't know why the higher-ups would allow Gecko Moria to come to Impel Down to hunt shadows and modify corpses.

However, it must be admitted that...

After absorbing the shadows of the last three prisoners in Infinite Hell, Gecko Moria's strength was far greater than when he first arrived!

The Devil's Heir, Douglas Barrett.

Lone Red - Patrick Redfield.

Shiryu of the Rain.

The shadows of these three people had now completely merged into Gecko Moria's body.

Moonlight Moria raised his right hand and released a giant shadow mage, which moved out of Impel Down.

Out of a sense of duty, Magellan still gave a reminder.

"Gecko Moria! Once you return to the Devil's Triangle, don't forget your duties as a Shichibukai!"

"The Devil's Triangle?"

Gecko Moria let out a cold laugh.

"I'm heading to the new world!"

Paradise, Alabasta.

Crocodile, having finished his daily training as usual, also received his daily newspaper.

"That bastard Bailong... he's getting stronger and stronger!"

Crocodile stared at the headline in the news, his eyes flashing with utter astonishment.

Vongola Storm can defeat Big Mom.

This means that the other party has completely joined the ranks of the top powerhouses in the ocean.

Since Big Mom can be defeated...

So what about Kaido of the Beasts?

Even the white beard?

Upon thinking about this, Crocodile immediately became restless.

He still remembered the agreement he had with the white dragon.

Back then, Haku had invited him to enter the New World together and challenge the Pirate Emperor.

But what the sand crocodile never expected was...

Haku didn't take him with him and directly defeated the Big Mom Pirates!

If Haku continues to fight the Whitebeard Pirates, or even wipes them out...

The sand crocodile will never rest in peace, even in death!

Whitebeard is his enemy!

Even if Crocodile is no match for Whitebeard.

At the very least, he wanted to witness Whitebeard's defeat firsthand!

"MR.1!"

Crocodile immediately called out the name of his most trusted subordinate.

"Inspect the Baroque Gustav! We're departing for the New World immediately!"

Paradise, Klaigana Island.

After spending some time exploring the East China Sea, Hawkeye Mihawk, who had returned to his life as a farmer, embarked on his journey to the New World after receiving today's newspaper.

Deep sea, Fishman Island.

Jinbe, the Knight of the Sea, was a little slow to receive the news, but as soon as he learned of the incident, he also set off for the New World to check on the Whitebeard Pirates.

The Seven Warlords of the Sea all sprang into action.

But the Navy Headquarters was the most shocked by the "new emperor's ascension to the throne".

Naval Headquarters, Marshal's Office.

Looking at the newspaper in his hand, Zhan Guo felt his head was about to explode.

"Who made him the Pirate Emperor!"
