One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha

World of Warcraft, Whole Cake Island.

The once sweet and luxurious palace has now been transformed into a temporary base for the Blackbeard Pirates.

The ground was littered with looted treasure, barrels of wine, desserts, and ripped Charlotte family banners.

The golden candlestick lay fallen on the creamy carpet, and gunpowder and knife marks remained on the walls.

The furniture and plates that used to sing have fallen silent, leaving only a few broken Homies hiding in the corner emitting intermittent, eerie laughs.

Marshall D. Teach, with his black beard, sat in the seat that originally belonged to Charlotte Linlin.

He held a bottle of wine in one hand and spread out the newly delivered newspaper in the other.

The headline on the front page of the newspaper was extremely eye-catching.

The battle for the title of Pirate King in the new era!

[Straw Hat Luffy VS Blackbeard Teach!] (Did you know?)

Blackbeard paused for a moment after seeing the title, then grinned and burst into laughter.

"Hehehehehe!"

"A new era's battle for the title of Pirate King?"

"These newspaper writers really dare to say things like that."

His tone was mocking, but his eyes were anything but relaxed.

Because this report is too straightforward.

That's too deliberate.

It doesn't seem like a news article exaggerated simply for sales purposes; it's more like someone deliberately pushed two pirate crews into the spotlight, letting everyone see clearly—

Leading the way on the road to becoming the Pirate King are Straw Hat and Blackbeard.

The man with the black beard lowered his head and continued reading.

The newspaper provided a detailed analysis of the current situations of the Straw Hat Pirates and the Blackbeard Pirates.

On the Straw Hat Pirates' side, Monkey D. Luffy defeated Kaido of the Beasts, officially securing his position as one of the Four Emperors.

Crimson Victor is known as "the most powerful vice-captain among the four Emperor Pirates," possessing mysterious eyes and unclassifiable, alien powers.

Roronoa Zoro and Black Leg Sanji were recognized as having reached the highest rank of Yonko crew executives after the Onigashima War.

Nicole Robin, on the other hand, was referred to by the newspapers as "the last key".

More importantly, the report declared with absolute certainty that the Straw Hat Pirates had already obtained three Road Poneglyphs and were only one step away from Laugh Tale.

As for the Blackbeard Pirates...

The newspapers also spared no effort in their coverage.

Marshall D. Teach killed Charlotte Linlin, swallowed Whole Cake Island, and became the most dangerous raider among the new Four Emperors.

The list of executives, including Shiliu, Van Augur, Doc Q, Lafitte, Bazars, Pizarro, Caterina, and San Juan Wolf, was compiled one by one.

Finally, the newspaper emphasized—

The Blackbeard Pirates have most likely obtained the last piece of the Road Poneglyphs that the Big Mom Pirates had collected.

As long as they can find someone who can decipher the ancient texts, they will also have the qualification to go to Laugh Tale.

The tone of the entire report was almost like an announcement to the whole world.

Only these two people are qualified to compete for the throne of the Pirate King.

The man with the black beard continued flipping through the newspaper, his smile gradually turning sinister.

This article does not directly insult other powerful individuals, but it subtly belittles them all between the lines.

Red-haired Shanks is known as "the old emperor who is powerless to contend with the new era for the ultimate throne."

Edward Newgate, the white-bearded figure, is described as "an old man of the old age who still stands, but has given up the pursuit of the throne."

As for Kidd, Law, the other supernovas, and a large number of New World powerhouses, they are classified as "spectators who witnessed the final battle."

This way of writing is extremely dangerous.

Because the new world is never short of ambitious people.

Those long-established and famous pirates would never want to have a newspaper announce that they have withdrawn from the battle for the title of Pirate King.

The newspapers, in particular, clearly told everyone—

The Straw Hat Pirates have three historical markers.

There's one last piece in the Blackbeard blob.

This is tantamount to putting the most deadly bait in front of everyone.

If we can snatch the rubbings, the stone tablet, or Nico Robin from these two sides, we will still have a chance to intervene in the struggle for the final island.

The article even points out at the end that the Straw Hat Pirates are very likely to go to Whole Cake Island to retrieve the last Road Poneglyph.

The war between Blackbeard and Straw Hat could very well break out in the waters of Totto Land.

The man with the black beard turned to the last page of the newspaper, his smile deepening.

He understood.

This is not a normal report at all.

This is the World Government's way of luring all the pirates' greed to the World of Warcraft.

"Those old fogies in the World Government have a good idea."

The man with the black beard sneered and slammed the newspaper on the table.

They knew the Straw Hat Pirates would come to World of Warcraft to investigate the last piece of the historical text on the road sign.

They also knew that Blackbeard had just conquered the world and had not yet fully assimilated this sea area.

Therefore, the world government deliberately used newspapers to amplify the news.

Let the Straw Hat Pirates come.

Let other great pirates come too.

Let everyone who wants the Laugh Tale coordinates and wants to compete for the Pirate King's throne come here.

This is just dogs fighting.

The World Government doesn't need to intervene immediately. Just letting the pirates fight amongst themselves in Whole Cake Island will weaken the two major threats, the Straw Hat Pirates and the Blackbeard Pirates.

If the Straw Hat crew had died in Whole Cake Island, the World Government would have lost Nika, Robin, and even Guren Victor.

If Blackbeard dies in Whole Cake Island, the World Government will lose a new Yonko who will inherit Big Mom's legacy.

If both sides are severely weakened, then the Navy and the Knights of God will be able to enter the fray and reap the rewards.

This strategy is not clever.

But it was very effective.

Because of the pirates' greed, they are the easiest thing to ignite on the high seas.

Just then, the palace gates were pushed open.

Basas walked in carrying a barrel of wine, a clear smile of pleasure on his lips.

Totto Land was indeed a place where it was very easy for the Blackbeard Pirates to become addicted.

There are endless desserts, delicacies, wine, and treasures here, as well as the remaining territory and resources of the Big Mom Pirates.

After conquering Whole Cake Island, many of the Blackbeard's officers have dispersed to various islands to enjoy the spoils of war.

Someone is looting the treasure vault.

Someone has occupied the palace.

Someone is hunting down the remnants of the Charlotte family.

Some people simply become obsessed with the abundant food and women of Totland.

Bashas is the most obvious one of them.

After he sat down, he asked with a loud laugh:

"Captain, why do you look so gloomy?"

"Isn't this place great? There's endless food, wine, women, and so much fun!"

Why don't we stay a little longer?

The man with the black beard looked up at him.

At that moment, the smile on Basas's face froze.

That's why I have to leave.

The man with the black beard casually tossed the newspaper in front of Bashas.

"Your fighting spirit has already been worn down before you even reach the finish line."

"Barshas".

His voice turned cold.

"Especially you."

Bashas instinctively wanted to retort, but seeing the black-bearded man's eyes, he forced himself to shut his mouth.

The man with the black beard stood up, his massive shadow looming over the table.

"The world is indeed rich. There are countless spoils of war, enough treasures and delicacies to drive anyone mad."

"But this is not the end."

"Laughdru is the one."

"The throne of the Pirate King is the one."

They didn't come here to become local tyrants ruling the dessert kingdom.

They want to seize the deepest thing in the entire world.

If they are now trapped by food, wine, women, and treasure, then they are no different from the losers who died in the old era.

Bashas scratched his head and chuckled a few times.

He dared not refute it.

Looking back on the past few days, he realized that he hadn't trained seriously for a long time.

His muscles are still there, but his fighting spirit seems to have been softened a bit by the pleasures of Totland.

"Go and contact all the cadres."

The man with the black beard gave the order in a cold voice.

"And all the scattered troops are ready to return."

"We're leaving the core area of ​​Totland."

Bashas was taken aback.

"Leave now?"

"Isn't Straw Hat Boy supposed to be here soon? Shouldn't we wait for him here?"

The man with the black beard sneered.

Why wait?

He has gotten what he wanted.

Treasures of the world.

The old lady's inheritance.

The last piece of road sign history text.

There will also be massive chaos as the World Government and other pirates will actively rush towards them.

Staying here will only make us a target for all forces.

Blackbeard never liked to stand in the light or become a target for others.

He prefers to let others fight each other first.

He would come back to harvest the blood once enough had been drawn.

Basas finally realized what was happening and grinned:

"Hahaha, I'll go call them now!"

The black-bearded man coldly reminded him:

Don't hesitate.

"Go and drag those guys who are held back by food and women back."

After Bashas left, the palace fell silent again.

Blackbeard stood alone on the high ground, gazing out the window at the Tottoran Sea.

The old woman used the Soul-Soul Fruit to bring everything here to life.

The clouds can sing, the trees can laugh, and the waves can talk.

Charlotte Linlin is now dead.

And Blackbeard gained her power.

However, his soul power is not as lively, fairytale-like, or sweet as that of an old lady.

It was a black soul fire mixed with dark fruit.

It will not make the world sing again.

It will only make this sea more bizarre, chaotic, and dangerous.

Blackbeard had already made arrangements throughout Totland.

When the Straw Hat crew arrives, they will first see a ruin that he deliberately left behind.

When other great pirates arrive, they might think they have a chance to take advantage of the situation.

At that time, Totland will be like a pot of hot oil that has been ignited.

Blackbeard stood up.

Countless black flames surged from his body.

Those flames were not ordinary flames.

They resembled souls swallowed by darkness, their surfaces revealing distorted faces.

Some were crying.

Some were laughing.

Some fears.

Some harbor resentment and bitterness.

They surrounded the black-bearded man, like a group of black Homies who had been forcibly driven.

The power of the Soul-Soul Fruit and the Dark-Dark Fruit combined to create a terrifying form on him that was completely different from Big Mom's.

The man with the black beard stretched out his hand.

As if receiving a command, the black soul flames flew off in different directions in the Tottoran Sea.

"Hehehehehe!"

The black-bearded man's laughter echoed through the palace.

"Come on! Come on!"

Come on, everyone!

He picked up the newspaper again.

In the title, Straw Hat Luffy and Blackbeard Teach's names are listed side by side.

Blackbeard stared at Luffy's photo with a cruel smile.

The Straw Hat Pirates have Nika, have his friends, and have three Road Poneglyphs.

He possesses darkness, a soul, and the last remaining coordinate.

The world government wants to see them fight like dogs.

Other pirates wanted to take advantage of the situation and get a share of the profits.

But Blackbeard didn't care.

For him.

Chaos is the ladder to success; he will be the ultimate winner.

He casually tossed the newspaper aside.

Outside the window, black soulfire flew towards various parts of Tottoland.

The ruined dessert kingdom fell silent in the darkness, like a giant beast with its mouth already open, waiting for the greedy to walk into its fangs.

Blackbeard looked at the sea, and a smile slowly spread across his face.

"Straw Hat Luffy".

"The chaotic waters of the world are the first gift I'm giving you."

"Hehehehehehe!"
