One Piece: Enhanced Supreme Grade Sword

Whitebeard, standing nearby, also listened intently to the sound coming from the Den Den Mushi.

"It's news about the Navy. The news says that the Navy has invented something called strengthening stone, which can strengthen weapons and improve their sharpness, toughness, hardness, and so on."

"Most importantly, it can also enhance the strength of Armament Haki. The news says it can increase Haki by several times."

On the other end of the Den Den Mushi, Squard relayed the news in one breath.

Chapter 49: We must get the enhancement stones.

Upon hearing this news, Marco was immediately startled and hurriedly asked the Den Den Mushi, "Can't this news be confirmed to be accurate?"

“No, but the rumors outside are so detailed and credible, they must be quite convincing,” Squard replied.

at this time.

Even Whitebeard's expression turned serious, a glint of light flashing in his slightly narrowed eyes, his smile appearing somewhat heavy. "Kurara... the Navy always comes up with strange things, but this enhancement stone can strengthen weapons and enhance Haki."

"This thing is very valuable."

In the New World.

A person's domineering power largely determines the outcome of a battle, and even their life or death.

He secretly estimated that if Sengoku and Garp's Haki increased by several times, even if he was known as the strongest man in the world, he might not be able to stop them.

His mood became heavy.

Especially now that he has reached a very awkward age, and with the injuries he carries.

“The navy is getting stronger and stronger.” Marco frowned; this was a very bad sign.

The navy is getting stronger and stronger, and it's the pirates who will suffer. And lately, for some reason, he's been feeling uneasy.

I had a premonition that something bad was going to happen.

This feeling has lingered in my mind ever since Shanks last visited my father.

Has something really happened to Ace?!

Whitebeard looked at Marco, who was bowing his head in silence and looking dejected, and laughed heartily, "Kurara... my son, don't worry, I am the strongest man in the world, Whitebeard!"

His unrestrained and confident laughter was so infectious that it dispelled much of the gloom in Marco's heart.

Marco cleared his mind of distractions and calmed down. He spoke into the Den Den Mushi: "Squard, notify all the pirate crews under Whitebeard to investigate this news thoroughly and verify its authenticity."

"and..."

"If the news is true, we'll try to get our hands on the enhancement stones if we can."

After receiving a response from Squard, Marco hung up the Den Den Mushi.

His usually droopy eyelids drooped, and he looked at the white-bearded man with a worried expression. "Dad, do you think this news is true?!"

Those enhancement stones that can amplify the Armament Haki in weapons sound amazing.

With such a significant increase in Armament Haki, if the Navy were to arm themselves with it, it would be an extremely terrifying thing. Just thinking about it sent chills down Marco's spine.

There are just too many strong individuals in the navy.

Whitebeard's eyes were full of confidence as he met Marco's somewhat worried gaze and said firmly, "Marco, you must have confidence in your father and in yourself!"

When Marco's eyes met Whitebeard's, he felt the confidence, courage, and domineering aura in his father's eyes, and everything seemed to become fearless.

Whitebeard laughed, "Kurara... As long as we also have enhancement stones, we can also upgrade our weapons. My Murakumogiri is one of the twelve Supreme Grade Swords. After being enhanced, no one can stop me!"

Marco nodded in agreement. "No matter what, we have to get our hands on the enhancement stones!"

Not only the old man, but also captains like Vista, Bramanc, and Laquero will be able to get promoted.

the other side.

Ghost Island.

Kaido returned to Onigashima with an extremely gloomy expression, roaring at the guards at the gate, "Bring me some sake right now, and tell King, Queen, and the Flying Six to come over!"

Having suffered a great loss and fled the Navy Headquarters in a sorry state, he was extremely unhappy.

He simply sat cross-legged on the ground, waiting for his men to bring the wine.

Not long after.

Several people worked together to lift a huge gourd of wine. Kaido immediately grabbed the gourd, and the pirates fell to the ground.

Kaido uncorked the bottle and gulped it down.

This bite.

After a minute, he put down the wine jug and roared, "This isn't enough! Bring more!"

The pirates under his command immediately ran away.

Kaido took two more sips, then angrily smashed the gourd on the ground.

at this time.

The Flame Disaster Jhin, shrouded entirely in black clothing, strode over. A black mask concealed his face, making it impossible to see his expression or features.

But you could see the doubt in his eyes.

He strode up to Kaido with his long legs and asked, "Lord Kaido, what happened that caused you to suddenly leave Onigashima and then return in such a rage?!"

"I also happen to have some news I'd like to report to you."

The thought of the Navy Headquarters...

Kaido gritted his teeth in anger, "Of course something happened. Tell me your news first."

Not far away.

A strange group of six, along with a large, fat man with blond hair, walked over.

It was Queen the Plague, a member of the Beasts Pirates, and the Flying Six, although X Drake was not among the Flying Six at this time.

Everyone could tell that Kaido was in a bad mood when they saw his gloomy face.

King the Wildfire reported to Kaido, "Recently, news has spread across the seas that something called 'Enhancing Stones' has appeared in the Navy. These stones can increase the sharpness and toughness of weapons, and even enhance Armament Haki..."

He hadn't finished speaking.

Kaido interrupted him.

"Yes!"

"This should be it, the enhancement stone..."

"No wonder the Navy's weapons have not only changed drastically but have also become sharper, and even their Haki is much stronger than before. It turns out it's because of the enhancement stones." Kaido was filled with confusion.

They were immediately scattered.

Just then, his subordinates brought over the wine, and Kaido began to chug it down without any hesitation. "We can't just sit and wait for the Navy to become stronger. We need to find out about the enhancement stones right away."

"If I had a weapon enhanced with enhancement stones, I could smash those despicable marines to pieces with a single blow!!"

Judging from Kaido's appearance, it's clear he suffered a loss in the Navy.

Everyone tacitly refrained from asking about Kaido's experiences at Marine Headquarters, as Kaido had fought the Marines more than once.

King the Wildfire said, "We weren't sure if this was true before, but now it seems the Navy really does have enhancement stones that can boost Haki."

"In addition, Jack has now been captured by the Navy."

"Our Beasts Pirates cannot remain indifferent to this matter."

With his arms crossed and a smile on his face, Furth Foz of the Flying Six said, "There's a vacancy on the big signboard right now. Should we find a suitable candidate?"

Kaido raised his head, looked at the Flying Six, and grinned: "This time we must teach the Navy a lesson, and we also need to get the enhancement stone."

"Whoever makes the most contributions to this mission will be the one to take the spotlight!"

Chapter 50 The Sea is in Turmoil

“This spot on the big billboard is definitely mine,” Foz said confidently.

As a former CP9 member, he was very knowledgeable about intelligence and naval matters, and was full of confidence for this mission.

at this time.

Kaido, who was drinking strong liquor, seemed to remember something and suddenly stopped. "Oh, right, I also found something on this trip to Marine Headquarters."

Recalling the scene, it was not a "pleasant" memory. He gritted his teeth as a surge of anger rose within him. "A strange, robot-like guy appeared in the Navy. Garp was controlling that machine at the time."

"It's about ten meters long, and it's as hard as a turtle shell."

"You should also keep an eye on this thing!"

The expression beneath King's mask was somewhat solemn, both from the enhancement stone he had previously mentioned and from the mention of the robot by Kaido.

All of this gave him a strong sense of urgency and crisis.

The navy has grown at a speed that is beyond imagination.

His voice was deep and guttural, like the roar of a wild beast, “The news of the Enhancement Stone has spread throughout the seas, and I’m sure it’s not just our Beasts Pirates who want to obtain it.”

"Other forces will definitely try to find a way as well. We can't fall behind. Let's contact Doflamingo."

"He's known as the underground emperor; with his help, things might work."

"That brat Doflamingo?!" Kaido took a sip of his drink and grinned. "He's weak in strength, but he's got some skills in other areas."

"Then let's contact him."

Kaido made the decision.

Even if we can't obtain the enhancement stones, we have to find a way to destroy them, otherwise we can't let the Navy continue to develop...

"Hehehe... Perhaps my pursuit of the world's greatest war won't be long now." A glint of excitement flashed in Kaido's large, bell-shaped eyes, and he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

The news of the strengthening stone spread throughout the entire sea at an extremely fast pace from Doflamingo.

White Earth Island, located in the Grand Line, has also received this earth-shattering news that has shaken the world.

Inside a massive white mountain.

The mountain was opened up and transformed, forming a city in the mountains.
