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

The impact of the final battle finally shook the sea.

Meanwhile, in Mary Geoise, far away on the Red Line, where the CP agents had received news, the Five Elders, representing the highest power in the world, were discussing this war within the Chamber of Power.

They are also trying to cope with the madness that is about to sweep the era.

"This year has truly been an extraordinary year..."

G. Erbachev's eyes were filled with gloom:

"The defeat of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the destruction of Enies Lobby, the invasion of Impel Down, the Marineford War at Marineford, and now the Wano Country arc..."

"This year's situation is almost like it's been cursed!!"

Qiu Jier, standing beside him, also rubbed his forehead with one hand:

"Never mind that for now!!"

"Although the situation in Wano Country was extremely urgent, no one could have predicted that the war would escalate to this extent..."

"But it's clear that what the Revolutionary Army is doing now is even more intolerable!!"

"They are digging up our roots!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room became much more oppressive and somber.

"I don't know where Dragon got those weird ideas from...!"

De Gaulle's tone was filled with an endless chill:

"Do they really think we can't do anything to them?!"

658 The final Gear Fourth! Are we really getting old? There can only be one Pirate King!!

While a fierce battle was raging in Wano Country, the seas outside were also far from calm.

Led by Dragon and Sabo, they promoted many new ideas that the Five Elders considered highly problematic, even extremely rebellious.

This is no longer just about digging up their roots; it's about completely uprooting them and nailing them to the pillar of shame.

This has led to a very delicate attitude among various countries towards paying the Heavenly Gold, due to the situation with the Revolutionary Army.

While the world government was furious, it naturally had no choice but to make a statement.

"The remaining CP members have all gone to investigate everything about the Revolutionary Army. I believe it won't be long before we have a definite result."

Among the five middle-aged elders, the blond Lin Ken also wore a gloomy expression:

"However, I think we should pay more attention to the situation in Wano Country."

"Only by completely eliminating that man can we put our minds at ease and take the revolutionary army more seriously!!"

That man...

The mere mention of this title reminded the Five Elders of Luffy's display of power during his final battle against Akainu at the end of the Marineford War.

"The power of that Devil Fruit must never be allowed to reappear in the world!!"

The bald-headed Five Elders rubbed his smooth bald head and said solemnly:

"There were already signs of that during the Marineford War; we absolutely cannot let it happen!!"

"That's something far more dangerous than the Revolutionary Army!!"

His voice was incredibly firm and heavy, and no one stood up to refute him.

"The war in Wano Country is getting increasingly fierce; even Charlotte Linlin has been defeated~"

"In a battle of this caliber, I wouldn't be surprised if Kaido were to die alongside him!!"

"The most crucial thing now is figuring out how to get rid of Straw Hat Boy!!"

"Sengoku was isolated in the open sea by Whitebeard. With Whitebeard there, the navy's main force basically could not invade head-on."

"So all we can do is wait for CP0 to take action, is that right..."

The discussions gradually subsided. From any perspective, it seems that the only trump card the World Government can rely on is CP0.

"We don't have enough manpower!!"

This is the biggest feeling in the hearts of the Five Elders right now.

"If that man named Aramaki's attack on Whole Cake Island is successful, or even if it is, and he demonstrates sufficient strength, we can promote him to Admiral!"

"We also have Dark Horse, the director of the Naval Crime Investigation Bureau. If necessary, we can also deploy his forces!"

"No matter what, we must provide stability to this chaotic era!!!"

The raging storms that are gradually rising in this ocean are putting pressure on even their world government.

In this world, the revolutionary army, emboldened by the will of the people, takes action on a national level.

On the high seas, the Straw Hat Pirates continue their assault on the One Piece and the throne of the Pirate King.

The current situation is arguably the most dangerous moment in the 800-year history of world governments!

But they were still powerless to do anything, and could only sit there staring blankly, their faces grim, waiting for the final result from Wano Country.

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

Meanwhile, the final showdown on Onigashima has finally entered its countdown phase.

"Don't you have a mouth?"

"Hey, can you talk? How old are you?"

"Fifteen? That's really young, hahaha!!"

"First time working with Rocks?! He's no good, don't trust him!!"

"If there's anything you need, just tell me!"

"My name is Lingling, and I will become the woman who reigns supreme over the sea!!!"

Please give me your guidance!

Images from the past flashed through my mind, and I could hear that extremely familiar voice in my ears. The woman's image and voice echoed before my eyes.

That was the only person in the world of pirates that Kaido encountered who brought him some warmth during his first encounter with the pirates.

Even in the extremely ruthless and cold world of pirates, there exists an indelible sense of righteousness and an incomparably dazzling dream.

"Lingling, are we really getting old...?"

As Kaido gazed at Luffy, whose fighting spirit was boiling, the thought couldn't help but resurface in his mind.

At that time, although they had not made any name for themselves on the sea, they firmly believed that they could create their own era with their own strength.

And all that followed proved that they had indeed achieved their initial ambitions and aspirations.

However, times have changed, and many years later, they are now facing a challenge to their identities, and their positions are already precarious.

"We finally managed to reunite, and now it just so happens that we're about to seize the great treasure..."

Swish! !

Luffy charged forward at top speed once again, shouting, "Gear Fourth: Snake Man!!"

Unlike the burly figure of the Elastic Man, the Snake Man appears more slender, but his strength is also more compressed.

"Gear Fourth - Hydra!!"

The rain of rubber fists fell like meteors, intertwined with black lightning and thunder, forming Luffy's most powerful attack.

The golden snake danced wildly, its power reaching the heavens, and the marks left by the rubber arm bending in mid-air almost completely sealed off the space in front of Kaido.

Bang bang bang! !

One punch after another landed squarely on Kaido, who was lost in his memories.

·· 0 flowers requested ··· ····

Puffs of blood mist reappeared from his body once again.

I don't care about your ambitions.

Luffy declared solemnly, "But I will eliminate any obstacle that stands in my way, or in the way of my crew,!"

"This is my final fourth gear. I will not stop attacking until I run out of strength!!"

"There can only be one Pirate King!!!"

This decisive battle has undoubtedly entered its final climax!

The fourth-level snake-man's fierce attack, like a storm, poured down on the king of beasts.

With an overwhelming aura, the rubber fist, at an incredible angle, at an unpredictable speed, and with irresistible force, firmly suppressed Kaido.

In this final Gear Fourth, Luffy held nothing back, unleashing all his fighting spirit.

...... 0 .......

boom! boom! !

Kaido brandished the Eight Precepts in an attempt to defend against the attacks, but even if he managed to block one or two punches, he was no match for Luffy's relentless onslaught from all directions.

That seemingly elusive fist, always imbued with Conqueror's Haki, struck his vital points with unerring precision!

Luffy was completely focused, constantly dismantling Kaido's attacks. Considering the intensity of his attacks and the damage and stamina he had suffered in this battle, Luffy was steadily gaining momentum.

He should have reached his limit, but~

"Huff~ drink~ huff~ drink..."

For some reason, his heavy breathing gradually disappeared and instead became calmer.

The pain from being struck by the tyrant's wolf-tooth club was slowly fading from his body.

The body and mind, which were originally tired, recovered very quickly, as if they would never feel tired again.

The power being consumed was also increasing rapidly. With each punch, the speed and power, as well as the domineering aura surrounding it, became even stronger!

At the same time, the power hidden deep within his body and mind is constantly being released outward, changing and promoting his transformation.

As Luffy and Kaido engaged in such a fierce offensive, it seemed as if some strange power was rapidly awakening within his body.

No, in fact, this power has already been awakened for some time.

However, this war with Kaido has become a catalyst, guiding and releasing this power completely!

Kaido, who faced Luffy's offensive head-on, felt it most deeply!

"That brat's attack..."

Kaido was filled with shock and rage: "Even at this point, he still possesses such power?!"

"And what's more, his attack trajectory was curved?!"

"Given the properties of rubber, this is impossible, isn't it?!" (The last sentence is a fragment and doesn't translate directly.)

659 The Drum of Liberation and the Awakening of Power! A shocked Kaido and a jubilant Luffy!!

Kaido was trapped in Luffy's rain of punches, completely unable to escape, and overwhelmed by intense pain.

"asshole……"

His eyes gradually regained their clarity under Luffy's fierce attack.

"Don't think you're the only one who can see the future!!"

Ding!

A flash of red light appeared in his eyes, and Kaido completely abandoned his defense, turning all his power into speed and attack.

Swish! !

In just a moment, Kaido's figure transformed into a white light, completely breaking free from the raging snake dance.

"Let's try imitating it!"

In an instant, the Azure Dragon in its human-beast form completely avoided the path of the rubber fist and arrived in front of Luffy.

"Blazing Breath!!"

The gaping maw opened wide, spewing forth endless flames and raging fire that consumed all life.
