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

It was as if to reflect the atmosphere and excited mood of these people.

Boom~! !

A massive explosion suddenly erupted from within the giant skull in front of them!

At the same time, there were also various noisy and chaotic sounds, such as Kidd's shouts and curses.

The battle truly began at this moment.

…………

The ghost-headed skull was inside the top-floor attic of the banquet hall.

"when!"

The last black chess piece was placed on the chessboard.

"Thus, a force of five thousand men is coming to attack..."

The person holding the chess piece slowly raised their head, and a muffled voice came from beneath the expressionless puppet mask.

"Are you confident you can handle this?!"

Their pure white attire already revealed their identities.

On the other side, Kaido's secretary, Baohuang, was calmly gathering up the extra white pieces.

"If even a force like ours can't stop the Straw Hat Pirates..."

He calmly said, "Do you think there are any other pirates on this sea who can stop the Straw Hat Pirates from advancing?!"

The man in the puppet mask (cade) fell silent.

On the high seas of the New World, none are stronger than the Four Emperors.

As for the Four Emperors, Whitebeard is undoubtedly a staunch supporter of the Straw Hat Pirates. He is their savior, and they would risk their lives for the Straw Hat Pirates.

Judging from their current situation of constantly fighting and clashing with the Warring States period in the open sea, their stance is already clear.

The Red-Haired Pirates are the least ambitious pirate crew, which is equivalent to the least involved pirate crew on the sea.

As long as the balance doesn't affect them, they won't bother to show their faces or care about anything on the sea.

Most importantly~~~

The CP organization has learned that the straw hat Shanks wore back then is the same one Luffy is wearing now!

Moreover, it's said that Shanks lost his arm to save Straw Hat Luffy...

What else is there to say?!

Shanks is already being lenient by not siding with this junior he values; why would he expect them to become enemies?!

Stop joking!!!

The man in the puppet mask was also startled after thinking about it.

Indeed, the only forces on this vast ocean that could stop the Straw Hat Pirates are the Beasts Pirates and the Big Mom Pirates.

Currently, Kaido and Charlotte Linlin have formed an alliance on this island to jointly deal with the Straw Hat Pirates.

If they win, everything will be fine.

If we really lose like this...

Doesn't that mean the Straw Hat Pirates' path ahead is completely unobstructed, without the slightest hindrance?!

So the Straw Hat Pirates' stated goal, which they've always claimed is to become the Pirate King...

Perhaps, it really might actually come true?!

"How can this be?!"

A cold glint suddenly flashed in the eyes of the man with the puppet mask.

In the face of the current chaotic situation, their World Government spared no effort in diverting the already limited forces of the Navy to barely assemble such a force configuration without affecting its normal operation.

Even their intelligence agencies were mobilized here at all costs, all to ensure that the Straw Hat Pirates were completely trapped here!

They are now a level of danger on this sea, even greater than the Four Emperors!

"The World Government is also in turmoil. As for Dragon and the Revolutionary Army, we don't know what happened, but the Revolutionary Army as a whole has undergone a huge change, you could say a qualitative change!!"

"It seems that the foundation of the World Government has been truly shaken. The entire sky above Pongel Castle is shrouded in dark clouds, and the situation is extremely unfavorable."

"A portion of CP0 went to the Revolutionary Army; otherwise, even more agents would have come here..."

"Revolutionary Army, Straw Hat Pirates..."

Even with the masked puppet man's usually calm demeanor, he couldn't help but twitch his brow at this moment.

This is the worst situation since the establishment of the World Government, bar none!

Even if Roger became the Pirate King, even if Rocks was ambitious enough to become the King of the World...

They were never nearly as widespread as they are now, each one posing a huge threat to overthrow the government!

"As for the Revolutionary Army, the Five Elders and other CP0 agents are naturally handling that..."

The man in the puppet mask murmured to himself, then slowly raised his head:

"Then here, I will make sure to wipe out the Straw Hat Pirates at all costs!!"

His gaze was fixed on the body of the royalist:

"I agree to cooperate with you!!"

The man in the puppet mask said in a deep voice, "I will intervene when necessary!"

"So good."

Baohuang nodded slightly.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll interfere with your captain's battle?"

Having made his decision, the puppet-masked man became even more determined, and his words grew even colder:

"As far as I know, Kaido hates it when others interfere in his battles. If I take action, he will definitely be unhappy."

Well, given the strength he's shown, a direct confrontation is clearly impossible to defeat Straw Hat Luffy.

The only opportunity to seize is when he is about to clash with Kaido, and his mind is completely focused!

In that case, the battle between Kaido and Straw Hat Luffy will inevitably be unable to continue.

"None of that matters~"

The royalist calmly said, "Compared to the final victory, the boss's personal interest is secondary."

"Besides, when he fought Kozuki Oden, there were people who intervened in his battle; otherwise, it would have been hard to say who would have won in the end."

The royalist spoke of Kaido's shameful past with an extremely calm tone:

"Besides, when the time comes, it will only be you bunch of annoying CP0s who will interfere with the battle, it has nothing to do with me."

"I'll be completely unaware of this throughout the entire process~~~"

The royalists simply extricated themselves from the whole affair.

Although they call it a collaboration, neither side will publicly acknowledge it.

Even the infamous CP organization, or the fearsome Beasts Pirates~

One cannot let the public know that government agencies have ties with pirates, and the other cannot undermine the morality inherent in pirates themselves.

"Therefore, in Kaido's mind, the only ones hindering his fight are you lot!!"

As the last words of the royalist were uttered, the masked puppet opposite him emanated an undisguised killing intent!

623 came specifically for them!! The other battle is the clash between Shiryu's group and Katakuri!!

After the Royalists' actions, their group of CP agents will intervene in the battle and do their best to kill Straw Hat Boy.

And this operation will remain unknown to outsiders.

Even between the two parties involved in the cooperation, Kaido's side would remain unaware, thanks to the silent support of the royalists.

In other words, this time, the CP agents can only make a losing deal.

Not only do you have to work hard, but you also don't get any credit.

Under such circumstances, it would be truly strange if the puppet-masked man could still have a favorable impression of the royalists.

I advise you to make plans as soon as possible.

The royalist said calmly, "The straw hat kid has already barged into the banquet hall."

The blindfold covering her face could transmit images to her eyes from any corner of the island.

"..."

The man in the puppet mask stared at her for a few moments, then slowly leaned back.

He needs to have a proper discussion with his group of companions.

This is indeed the best, and last, chance to kill the Straw Hat Pirates!!

"First it was Straw Hat Luffy, and now it's your Beasts Pirates..."

On the surface, he showed no extra expression, but in the heart of the puppet-masked man, a chill was constantly creeping in.

The Straw Hat Pirates are certainly a significant threat, but the remnants of the Rocks Pirates have once again reunited.

The alliance between the Beasts and Big Mom is also a major concern for the World Government.

Moreover, they have already discovered that Kaido of the Beasts' goal is to take action against the World Government after defeating the Straw Hat Pirates.

These are undoubtedly dangerous individuals, and none of them will pretend not to see it!

The alliance between Kaido and Charlotte Linlin was known not only to them but also to their respective subordinates.

After all, this isn't some secret that needs to be hidden.

Inside the skull on Onigashima, the members of the Beasts Pirates were naturally overjoyed and brimming with confidence.

Even enemies like the Straw Hat Pirates felt utterly powerless against the combined might of the two Emperors!

This is the confidence that comes from being a maritime emperor, dominating the seas for decades!

Meanwhile, Charlotte Linlin's children also learned of this situation through a Den Den Mushi (a type of telephone phone).

"So, Mom and Kaido have teamed up again, Perori~"

Perospero put down the Den Den Mushi he was holding and used the giant lollipop to wipe the seawater splashing on his face.

"While this is indeed beneficial to both of us, however..."

Perospero looked up at the ordinary-looking wooden boat directly in front of their Anthem Queen.

"Before that, we need to take care of these opponents blocking our way, Peroli~"

The long, scarlet tongue licked forcefully at the corner of its mouth, and its eyes were already filled with a solemn expression.

Apart from Perospero, the others were also on high alert.

Dafu had already been rubbing his waist. The steaming demon appeared out of thin air, holding a large knife. Owen's whole body was burning red, radiating extreme heat. When the waves hit his body, they were instantly turned into water mist.

After absorbing a great deal of power, Smoothie's body had become enormous. [Demon Lady] Armand had a cigarette dangling from her mouth, and the famous sword [White Fish] at her waist was slowly drawn, exuding a chilling killing intent.

Katakuri, the pride of the Charlotte family, known as invincible and never having fallen backwards, stood at the very front of the ship.

Countless black lines hung down from his forehead, unable to conceal his eyes that constantly emitted a red light.

"I never expected that besides Whitebeard, such a group of thugs would also appear here..."

A somber tone came from beneath Katakuri's scarf.

His gaze was also fixed on the figure on the opposite ship, smoking a cigar and wearing an airplane cap.

Katakuri was no stranger to the group of people in front of him.

They were even quite familiar with each other when the Marineford War ended.

This group of people has multiple identities, such as former prisoners and wardens of Impel Down, later members of the Blackbeard Pirates, and subordinate fleets of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet.

"Shiryu of the Rain, the former warden of Impel Down, declared during the Marineford War that he had joined the Straw Hat Pirates' subordinate fleet."

"Later, I heard that he had also gathered together the remnants of the Blackbeard Pirates..."
