The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

"Smoothie, Perosco, do something!!"

He didn't dare to remind his mother, but Katakuri didn't care about such things when it came to others, and immediately shouted loudly.

However~

Perospero and Smoothie, who were called out by him, seemed to be frozen in place, without making any movement.

Katakuri: "..."

Are you all deaf, or zombies?!

He was nearly driven mad with rage. As the veins on his forehead bulged, he tried again to remind Perospero that they could use his candy to create a candy path and rope to stabilize the ship, Smoothie could use her swordsmanship to restrain King, and then his mother could ride Zeus to defeat him in one fell swoop—to put this plan into action…

But it was already too late.

"Ahhhh!!!"

The Queen of Hymns #3.4 stopped singing loudly and instead let out screams.

Not only it, but also the group of people on the ship, all cried out in panic at this moment.

Perospero, along with Smoothie and others, were also making the same noise there.

Katakuri: "..."

You wouldn't listen when I called you earlier, but now you've finally woken up?!

And Dafu, you were yelling like that too. If you had released [Steaming Demon] earlier to restrain Jin, none of this would have happened!

Why do you all refuse to use the many solutions when there are so many? Why do you wait until the problem arises before you start yelling and screaming?!

At that moment, Katakuri closed his eyes in agony.

What a bunch of incompetent teammates! He's just not cut it!

[The Wano Country arc has been quite long, but it's nearing its end. Once Wano Country concludes, the next chapter will be the final chapter featuring the World Government, which is intolerable to the current situation. This arc is expected to conclude this month, or at the latest next month. Thank you for your support and understanding!]

605 That's one of the Four Emperors! Hawkeye enters!! Whitebeard and the Marines are facing off!!

The Anthem Queen has capsized.

Well, how should I put it? It was both unexpected and yet perfectly reasonable.

It was unexpected because Link also saw Katakuri on the ship and thought he would never see this classic scene again.

But what I didn't expect was that the Charlotte family members would be such terrible teammates.

Even with Katakuri directing them, Perospero and the others remained motionless and stunned.

Charlotte Linlin was completely useless there.

This also made Link suspect that this group of people were all actors, deliberately playing the role of Katakuri.

To put it bluntly, in that clash just now, only Katakuri stepped forward; everyone else just stood there watching, not making a single move.

It was precisely because of Katakuri's intervention that King's move was not a simple kick, but rather a powerful attack using his Devil Fruit ability.

A massive collision occurred, sending the Anthem Queen crashing straight down from above the waterfall.

Furthermore, Link seemed to hear a cracking sound at the end, as if the hull of the Anthem Queen had been smashed by Jhin's all-out, domineering attack.

Yes, the lower half of the hull is at least badly damaged. I wonder if the keel at the bottom of the ship has been damaged.

20

Even if the keel is still intact, given the condition of the Anthem Queen, it's hard to say whether it can continue climbing the waterfall.

"I didn't expect Charlotte Linlin to still manage to track me down here."

Upon witnessing the final fate of the Anthem Queen sinking into the sea, Link couldn't help but shake his head.

In the original version, it was indeed due to Morgans' report that Charlotte Linlin was defined as a loser, and Luffy's act of slapping her on the forehead was indeed a despicable act.

This enraged her, leading her to gather her forces and march towards Wano Country.

Now, it seems that Luffy is not with him, even though he is leading the invasion of Whole Cake Island.

Well... it seems that what she made herself wasn't any worse than what Luffy made in the original version.

Thinking of the ruined marriage and wedding scene, Link shook his head slightly with amusement.

I didn't expect Charlotte Linlin to be so persistent, and this time she went all out, even bringing Katakuri and Cracker along.

That said, she brought out three of the Sweet Commanders, leaving only the weakest one, Snag.

Moreover, other powerful executives, such as Perospero, Daifuku, Owen, and Armand, also came here with them.

The Totto Lands are currently incredibly vulnerable; isn't she afraid someone will take advantage of this opportunity to wipe them all out?!

That said, the latest chapter's cover story reveals that the Vinsmoke family escaped during what appears to be an invasion of Totto Land.

There were only two intruders. Although we don't know who they were, we can only guess that they were members of the Blackbeard Pirates.

Only the Blackbeard Pirates could send just two of their officers to breach the empty Whole Cake Island.

Link figured that if he just casually sent Zoro or Sanji right now, they might be able to completely take over Whole Cake Island.

"Has the boat already capsized?!"

Link was expressing his feelings, while Kidd and the others looked on in disbelief.

"Those were the Four Emperors! How could they be defeated so easily?!"

The child looked completely dumbfounded; today was probably the day he was most shocked.

"if not?"

Seeing his shocked and somewhat dazed expression, Link couldn't help but chuckle softly:

"Although they are the Four Emperors, they are also human, and they have weaknesses and make mistakes."

"But……"

Kidd opened his mouth, "That's one of the Four Emperors!!"

He severed one of his arms and defeated their entire group—a Yonko of equal renown!

If the Four Emperors suffer setbacks, it will not be surprising for them.

But if the boat capsizes or collapses in this manner...

Kidd and the others found it hard to accept, and could even be described as distraught.

The two Yonko they had encountered before were both incredibly powerful, but this Yonko they hadn't even met seemed so useless...

This gave them the feeling that God was truly playing a cruel joke on them.

Why are all the Four Emperors I encounter so powerful, yet the one I never seem to run into is the weakest one...?

A sense of disbelief, as if fate were playing tricks on them, faintly appeared before their eyes.

"By the way~"

Link continued to focus his gaze on the three of them. "Why did you come to Wano Country?"

Although Link had sensed their presence early on with his Observation Haki, he was actually quite curious about their purpose in coming here.

Hawkins, in particular, surrendered to Kaido in the original story, but this time he ended up in prison with Kid and the others.

When did this guy's bones become so hard?

"Uh……"

Upon hearing this, Kidd and the others pursed their lips.

Can we say they came to this island seeking opportunities, and then to surpass you...?

"Forget it~"

Seeing their embarrassed and reluctant expressions, Link smiled and didn't press them further.

"But now that you've come all this way and been defeated by Kaido, you naturally want to get revenge, right?"

To vent my anger?!

Kidd was instantly intrigued: "How do we get out?"

"How about we form an alliance and fight Kaido together?"

Link offered this slightly less embarrassing suggestion.

Well, the main problem is that Kidd and the others are in such poor condition that inviting them to fight Kaido together would inevitably be seen as recruiting and annexing them, or as condescending.

Given Kidd's pride, he obviously wouldn't accept it.

However, if we form an alliance...

They at least preserved their last shred of dignity.

"An alliance, huh..."

Kidd fell silent, while Hawkins, who was lying on Kira's back, also looked up and glanced at Link.

"it is good!!"

Considering all the misfortunes he had suffered recently—losing an arm, being beaten down, seriously injured, and imprisoned—Kid had long been holding back his anger.

"Then let's form an alliance!!!"

Kidd roared viciously, "I'm going to rip Kaido's head off and use it as a football!!!"

Yes, it's a grand ideal, but it can only be called an ideal.

"what?!"

Suddenly, Aokiji beside him let out another soft exclamation.

"Who is that person?!"

Hearing the rare surprise in Aokiji's words, the group looked back at the screen.

And so it was seen on the screen.

The Kuri region, which is the area around the waterfall where Link and his friends landed.

A small boat, its surface glowing with a green candle flame, resembling a coffin from the Netherworld 507, slowly appeared on the sea.

"[Hawkeye] Mihawk!!"

Kira blurted out, "The world's greatest swordsman, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea!!"

Just by looking at the ship's distinctive features, one could clearly identify who the people were.

They were especially shocked when they saw the man sitting on the platform with his arms crossed, legs crossed, and a huge black knife stuck in his back.

"Why would a Shichibukai come to this place?!"

Kidd and the others were shocked and puzzled, but Aokiji raised an eyebrow.

"Have all the Seven Warlords of the Sea already arrived...?"

A sense of unease suddenly settled over him. "Doesn't that mean the Navy will be arriving soon...?"

Aokiji's calculations were quite accurate. Since even Hawkeye's small boat had arrived, the Navy must have arrived around the island much earlier as well.

It’s just~

Boom! Crash!

In the seas surrounding Wano Country, thunder roared and torrential rain poured down.

Countless waves rolled and surged, almost swallowing everything on the sea surface.

Despite the extremely harsh weather, two opposing forces stood facing each other calmly.

One side, with its rows of standard naval warships and seagull flags, clearly indicated which faction it belonged to.

The navy is the epitome of justice in this world!

On the other side, there was also a warship.

However, on the deck of that warship, a tall man with a full head of blond hair, holding a large sword, stood proudly.

606 The standoff between Whitebeard and the Navy, the mobilization of their forces, was merely a matter of pride between pirates.

"Gurarararar~!!"
