After retiring from the Navy, I became a doting husband.

"Understood, Katakuri-nii-san. I'll stay here and guard the treasure vault."

Katakuri felt much more at ease after hearing Smoothie's words. As long as the treasure vault was still there, the other losses didn't matter. As long as his mother returned, it could be restored at any time.

"It will be another three or four days before we get back, which is great. I was worried that I would run into them if I left too late, but now I can take my time."

Martin said to Smoothie thoughtfully.

……

"Finally back. The atmosphere of the Land of Treasures is still the most captivating." Katakuri said, walking to the bow of the ship and facing the sea.

"Um…!"

As the Queen Mother's Hymn entered Whole Cake Island, Katakuri sensed something was off. It was unusually quiet throughout the entire island. The usual welcoming procession, or at least the welcoming patrol, should have appeared, but nothing did.

“Sir, something’s wrong. The patrols haven’t shown up. Should we send someone to check?” an officer said to Katakuri.

"Speed ​​up, let's get back to Whole Cake Island first." Katakuri's heart trembled, a bad premonition filled his mind. Could the situation on Whole Cake Island have gotten this bad that Smoothie had even recalled the patrol force?

The Queen Mother's Anthem sailed from the outskirts of the World of Warcraft towards Whole Cake Island, and the situation was the same along the way; they hadn't seen a single person yet.

Finally, they arrived at Whole Cake Island. Charlotte Linlin couldn't wait to disembark and rushed straight towards Whole Cake Town.

It was very quiet; there was no fighting, no guards, no pedestrians—everything was perfectly quiet.

Charlotte Linlin had no time to care about any of that; all she cared about was her treasure vault, her life savings, her capital to establish herself in the new world.

"call!"

Looking at the broken door, Charlotte Linlin felt her heart break as well.

"Bang...bang...bang!"

Charlotte Linlin dragged her heavy steps toward the treasure vault door, and finally walked in through the doorway.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Charlotte Linlin screamed wildly, her anger surpassing her craving for dessert for the first time; the rage completely overwhelmed her reason.

"Martin, I'm going to kill you! I'm going to tear you to pieces! Crack!"

Charlotte Linlin screamed and crushed the sword Martin had left behind.

.

Martin drifted on the sea, a smile playing on his lips.

This time, they weren't just going to rob Lian Gao Island. Since Smoothie received a call from Katakuri, Martin knew that his group had plenty of time, so a bold plan formed in his mind, which he named: "A World Tour of All Islands".

Of the thirty-four islands surrounding Cake Island, none escaped Martin's clutches, especially the island's chefs, who were all captured by him.

The chefs on the thirty-four islands each have their own specialty, and each one is a world-class chef in their respective field. Charlotte Linlin spent a long time finding them.

For example, Cocoa Island is a chocolate-themed island, and the chef on the island is a top-notch chocolate maker.

Candy Island is an island themed around all kinds of candy, and the chef on the island is also a candy-making master.

This time, Martin took them all aboard the Harem.

Of course, Martin did more than that. He also captured all the soldiers and pirates on the island and told the island's inhabitants that they could leave now and that no one would make things difficult for them when they left.

Although the island's inhabitants couldn't believe it was true, when they saw that Martin and his crew didn't seem to be the Big Mom Pirates, some people started to flee, and eventually more and more people made a mass exodus.

The goal of World of Warcraft is to become a home where members of almost every race and tribe in the world can live in harmony. Charlotte Linlin longs for a utopia where all races and species can live in harmony.

The known races inhabiting the Land of Treasures are humans, fish-men, mermaids, mink, snake-headed, long-armed, long-legged, human, three-eyed, and several hybrids of different races.

According to the law, all citizens of the Kingdom of Twilight must pay one month's life every six months as a fee for Charlotte Linlin's protection, or they must leave. However, this is only the stated rule, and many people have had all their lives taken away directly, causing many to choose to leave.

However, it was an open secret among all the inhabitants of the Kingdom that anyone who tried to leave would be sentenced to death, so this opportunity was very important to them. They did not want to grow old and die prematurely.

And so, the people of Whole Cake Island and the thirty-four other islands scattered. Everyone with a bit of ability left. Although the New World route was difficult to navigate, they couldn't resist the temptation to survive. That's why no one welcomed Charlotte Linlin's return—there were almost no people left on the islands.

There was only one person who didn't fit in on the entire ship: Smoothie. With her long sword drawn, she protected Martin like a mother hen, afraid that Martin would be snatched away by the women on the ship. She only discovered after boarding that Martin's ship actually had several beauties who were no less attractive than herself, and a sense of crisis filled her heart.

Seeing Smoothie like this, Martin had no way to change this silly woman all at once; he could only let her gradually adapt to life on the ship.

Sigh, should I marry another one?

Although Smoothie has an impressive ability to extract juice and can even obtain Zanpakuto, Big Mom won't let her off the hook.

Unlike Martin and his crew, who were sailing happily, Charlotte Linlin had just heard Katakuri's report that the entire Whole Cake Island had been destroyed by fire. The Whole Cake Island that she had worked so hard to build over the decades had become a joke. Not only were the people gone, but the soldiers had also disappeared, and all the treasures she had collected had vanished with them.

The only saving grace was that he had taken most of his forces with him when he initially took them to block the entrance to the new world, and these forces returned to the Kingdom of Twilight intact.

"Katakuri, have you found Smoothie? Why did she disappear too? I don't believe she's so easily defeated," Charlotte Linlin said, staring at Katakuri.

"This..." Katakuri hesitated, unable to finish his sentence.

Is there anything worse than the destruction of the entire kingdom?

"I know, Mom. According to the survivors on the island, Smoothie was with Martin and participated in the raid. Smoothie has betrayed us."

"What? Betrayal? Why would Smoothie betray me? She's my daughter, one of my Four Generals, second only to me in rank. Why would she...?"

Charlotte Linlin asked angrily upon hearing that Katakuridosmoothie had betrayed them.

"Mom, Mom, don't be angry. It's all for love. She's treating Martin like her husband, as if it were your decision."

Charlotte Linlin froze upon hearing Katakuri's words, as if she had just realized something.

"Katakuri tells everyone that whoever can kill Martin and retrieve the stolen treasure will be the next Sweet Commander."

"It's Mom!" Katakuri then walked outside to announce Charlotte Linlin's decision, as becoming a Sweet Commander was the highest honor for the Big Mom Pirates.

“Vinsmoke Judge, I have agreed to your request last time. I can cooperate with your family, but I have one condition.”

After Katakuri left, Charlotte Linlin picked up the Den Den Mushi next to her and made a call to contact this special family.

Vinsmoke Judge was overjoyed to hear Charlotte Linlin agree to cooperate with him. Although his family was able to establish itself in the New World, their strength was still lacking. If they could cooperate with the Big Mom Pirates, they would be invincible.

"Whatever the request, as long as it's not too unreasonable, I agree."

Vinsmoke Judge agreed without hesitation.

"I want Martin's head!"

Charlotte Lingling said fiercely. After Martin's experience, she would never dare to leave the Kingdom of Treasures again. This was her fate.

Chapter 211 Judge's Ambition

"Martin, is he the guy who claims to be one of the Five Emperors? I've been looking for him for ages."

Judge became excited. It wasn't easy to find a person or a ship on the vast ocean, and Martin, one of the so-called Five Emperors, was one of the people he was looking for.

"That's him! What, are you looking for him too?"

Charlotte Linlin asked curiously, not expecting Judge's reaction to be so intense.

"That's right, his ship is called something like the Harem, it's actually a modified version of our lost snail ship, it must have been stolen by that guy." Judge said through gritted teeth.

Yes, there was a prototype ship in his snail ship. It was stolen by pirates from the research facility, and he later learned that the ship had fallen into the hands of the demon sword Martin.

One of the Five Emperors?

In terms of strength, his family is comparable to any of the Five Emperors.

Besides, Martin has hardly made any moves in recent years, so who's afraid of him!

Hearing Judge's words, Charlotte Linlin felt much better. It turned out that she wasn't the only one who had been robbed by Martin. She was even more optimistic about this collaboration. With a common enemy, their cooperation would be more solid and lasting, and she would be more likely to achieve her goals.

"That's good, Judge. As long as you bring him here, we'll officially form an alliance."

Charlotte Linlin smiled and said that calling him Gaji by dropping his surname made it much more endearing.

Judge was thrilled to hear Charlotte Linlin's words and wished he could take Martin there right away, but he said helplessly, "I also want to find that thief as soon as possible, but the world is so big and they don't have a fixed place to live, so it's really not easy to find them."

"Don't worry about that. That thief just raided my Whole Cake Island and is currently nearby. Are you confident you can find them?"

"What? He even dared to steal your things?" Judge asked in disbelief upon hearing Charlotte Linlin's words. This was too audacious; he really dared to do it.

This so-called Fifth Emperor is truly speechless.

Charlotte Linlin gritted her teeth and said, "Yes! That damned thief stole my treasure while I was away! How confident are you in finding them?"

Judge laughed and said, "Of course, we Germa 66 are a nation built on technology. As long as I know the general direction, I can find them. Don't worry, leave this to me. Just wait to form an alliance with us!"

"That's good. I'll wait for your good news then."

Charlotte Linlin hung up the phone with a crazy smile on her face. She didn't just want Martin; if she succeeded this time, it would be killing two birds with one stone.

"All ships set sail, target: World of Warcraft," Judge said into the microphone. He had established the Germa Kingdom alone and had absolute control over it, and he was very optimistic about this operation.

.....................

The Little Harem was submerged underwater. This area was not far from Whole Cake Island. To avoid unnecessary trouble, Martin chose to remain submerged.

"Captain, we have spotted a strange, unfamiliar ship that is rapidly approaching us."

The sailor reports to the commander.

"A strange, unfamiliar ship?"

Martin narrowed his eyes.

Germa 66.

The equipment on the Judge ship detected the presence of the Little Harem.

"Ichi, you take a team to the east."

“Nitchie, you take a team south.”

"Yongzhi, you take a team to the west."

"Reiju, you will stay by my side. As the eldest sister, you have the most important task. Be ready to fight alongside me at any time."

Judge gave instructions to his four children one by one.

"It's my father!"

The four siblings answered in unison, saying that although they looked like ordinary people, they were actually quite strong. They had been modified by Judge's bloodline factors since they were in the womb, and were superhuman from the moment they were born.

Three snail-shaped fleets separated from the vast floating kingdom, sailed into the distance, and then disappeared on the horizon.

Martin stood at the bow of the ship, and in the distance, a huge water kingdom appeared before him. This was the Kingdom of Germa, the only kingdom without territory.
