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

"If we could take this opportunity to defeat the old man..."

Her eyes, hidden behind the mask, grew brighter and brighter, and her whole body seemed to perk up.

"Even if that doesn't work, at least see if we can find an opening and remove this damn shackles..."

She glanced at the shackles that had bound her for almost a decade and made up her mind.

Whoosh! !

In a few leaps, she nimbly left her spot and sped towards the massive skull hall.

Meanwhile, within this hall, a momentous event is unfolding that could alter the course of the war!

"Franky... Ultimate Invincible Wind and Rain Spray!!"

Franky roared as he unleashed the newly named attack, hurling the energy gathered from his companions' hands into the sky.

"Huh? What's that?!"

Kaido watched coldly as Franky played around like a toy, while also glancing at the missiles that were being fired.

There was no intention to attack anyone, and it doesn't seem to contain missiles, but rather...

BOOM!!

When the wind blew and reached the highest point of the hall, it suddenly exploded.

The plump, yellow, glutinous rice-like dumplings inside seemed to fall from the sky like a shower of flowers!

"Um?!"

All the Beast Pirates members who heard the explosion overhead were startled.

They thought an attack had been launched from above, and they all instinctively looked up.

And so, those bright yellow glutinous rice balls came into view.

"Those are glutinous rice balls?!"

The thought had just crossed their minds when, in an instant, the glutinous rice balls in their eyes seemed to transform into some priceless treasure.

Suddenly, it held immense appeal for them, and a flicker of longing unconsciously flashed in their eyes.

They want to eat these meatballs!

Just then, a demonic whisper, seemingly from the abyss, rang in their ears.

"Open your mouth and eat it!!"

Those Gifters who had eaten artificial Devil Fruits could no longer suppress their impulses upon hearing this voice, and all of them instinctively opened their mouths.

Thud!

One by one, the glutinous rice balls fell into their mouths.

"What happened to them?!"

Those who hadn't eaten the artificial Devil Fruits, as well as Shinji, who was a genuine Devil Fruit user, were all completely bewildered, watching the Gifters who had stopped to eat the mochi balls and were lost in a state of bliss.

·· 0 flowers requested ··· ····

"Could there be something special about these meatballs?!"

Some of the dim-witted pirates, who weren't very bright to begin with, even picked up a rice ball from the ground and put it in their mouths after scratching their heads.

He kept nodding as he ate.

"Mmm, it tastes good~"

other people:"……"

"What is this thing?!"

Quinn, who was preparing to secretly release the Ice Ghost Virus, also frowned as he looked at the glutinous rice ball in his hand.

"I can't see anything unusual about it!"

He even held it to his nose and sniffed it. "Could it have been poisoned?!"

Not only him, but even the two true powerhouses on the platform frowned.

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

"What is this? A glutinous rice dumpling?!"

Charlotte Linlin looked at the handful of dumplings she had grabbed in her large hand, and without thinking, crushed them into powder.

"A pellet that they specifically launched at this moment is definitely not a good thing!!"

Charlotte Linlin said with certainty.

Yeah, do you even need to tell me that?

Even a fool would know that the dumplings released at this moment are definitely unusual!

Kaido didn't say much; he simply continued to observe the situation below.

Suddenly, his eyebrows shot up as if he had discovered something, but his eyes gradually darkened.

"We are..."

Those who had finished eating the glutinous rice balls seemed to immediately return to their original state.

They were all puzzled by their state just now.

But at this very moment~

"Put down all your weapons."

That demonic voice rang out again.

Clang!

Without the slightest hesitation, all the gifted beings who heard this voice instinctively threw everything they were holding onto the ground.

It was only after they had finished throwing it away that they came to their senses again.

What are we doing?!

They looked at their hands in disbelief.

They seemed completely unable to believe that they themselves had just done all of this.

Unconsciously, these gift-givers raised their heads one by one, looking at each other blankly.

Finally, they all turned their gazes to the figure that had just made that sound.

At that moment, the man who had just said "ha" was also looking at them with a subtle smile on his lips.

~~~~~~~~~

【Thank you so much to the generous donor 'Once Upon a Time There Was a Eunuch' for the yet another generous donation!! A huge thank you!!!】

629 Under Control! The Two Emperors' Operation!! It's been a long time since we fought side by side, hasn't it, Luffy?

"Super!!"

Franky happily clasped his arms together, surprised that things were going so smoothly.

"Now there shouldn't be any problems, right, First Mate Link?!"

He looked at Link, who was wearing a subtle smile, and said with some excitement.

"Yes, that's right. We now have the initiative in our hands."

Under the bewildered gazes of the Beasts Pirates, Link gently pressed his hand downwards:

"Everyone, get down on the ground and get out of this hall, using both your hands and feet!!"

"No one is allowed to get up from the ground or come in without my order!!"

Um? ! !

What does it mean? !

Those waiting and genuine ability users looked at Link with a mixture of absurdity and disbelief, as if he were an idiot.

You're the enemy! How could we possibly listen to what you're saying?!

They were still crawling on the ground, rolling out on their hands and feet. They weren't allowed in without orders?!

Who do you think you are?! Daring to point fingers and boss us around like that?!

Only a fool would listen to you...

The idea had barely crossed their minds when...

"Pat-pat".

In an instant, a large group of people lay sprawled on the ground.

"What happen to you guys?!"

The group of people who were still standing and conscious stared in disbelief at the group of idiots they had been calling fools, who were rolling on the ground, tumbling outwards.

"??!!!"

Click~

My values ​​and understanding of the world seemed to have been shattered, leaving me in pieces.

"What's wrong with those guys?!"

Some of the real fighters also looked grim as they stared at the group of guys.

Many of these people were their subordinates.

“Fredrick, Hamlet, poker…you guys…”

Those powerful warriors could only watch helplessly as their troops rolled outwards one by one.

A rooster-type ability user whose head is located where a chicken's rear end is; a giraffe-type ability user whose body grows out of the back of a giraffe except for its head; a cobra-type ability user whose shoulders and legs have snakes growing out...

Too many bizarre and strange artificial Devil Fruit users left in a panic.

They had absolute faith in and obedience to Link's words, and completely ignored the words and shouts of their superiors and leaders.

In a very short time, large gaps were cleared out throughout the venue.

This was like a bucket of cold water poured over this lively and brutal battle.

"Is this the effect caused by these pills?!"

Jin, standing on the high platform, also glanced at the glutinous rice dumpling in his hand.

He wasn't stupid; the thing the other party had deliberately shot out earlier must have had some other purpose.

"Manipulating artificial Devil Fruit users?"

Quinn, who was standing nearby, quietly packed the dumplings away.

"This is definitely worth studying!"

Those who rolled out of the arena were all artificial Devil Fruit users, leaving only bewildered waiters and genuine Devil Fruit users with grim expressions.

It becomes clear who the main target of this type of meatball is.

"Looks like you got tricked too, Kaido!!"

Charlotte Linlin, who was about to make a move, grinned and laughed without any restraint when she saw this.

The feeling of watching others suffer setbacks, besides yourself, is truly indescribable.

"This is the entire Zoan-type Devil Fruit user army that you built from scratch, and it's all been controlled by a tiny mochi ball~"

Charlotte Linlin looked at Kaido beside her with a mocking and teasing expression.

"So much effort has been put in, and this is the kind of army we've cultivated..."

"I wonder what you're thinking now?!"

What do you think? !

Kaido glanced at the gloating Charlotte Linlin out of the corner of his eye:

"This proves that they haven't met my requirements at all!!"

"An army that can be easily controlled by others is not what I want at all!!"
