Wapol

The Five Elders were having a major headache.

There are too many powerful pirates on the high seas now.

The four pirate emperors plus Red-Haired, who is already being touted as the Fifth Emperor, were already enough of a headache for them, and now that Golden Lion has popped up again.

While the pirates' power continued to expand, the government was suffering continuous losses.

Zephyr has completely retired and can only take on clerical teaching jobs.

Garp has no plans to return to work at the moment.

The greater losses were suffered by CP0; one of their Strongest Shield was destroyed, and two of their top officers, who were candidates for the Strongest Shield, also died, severely damaging their top-level combat power.

Speaking of which--

"It's all because of that bastard Black Wolf!"

The bald, mustachioed Five Elders angrily berated Sirius, who was lurking somewhere, "If it weren't for this bastard, how could the government be in such a passive position now?"

That's the truth. Zephyr was crippled by Sirius, Garp was forced to take a long leave of absence by Sirius, and the former Strongest Shield and his two subordinates were also killed by Sirius.

The Sirius Pirates inflicted unprecedented losses on the World Government.

Even figures like Rocks or Roger couldn't achieve this.

"This time, we might really have to blame that Black Wolf guy."

The Five Elders, dressed in black suits and with long beards, said, "According to CP's intelligence, in the first half of the Grand Line, on Saldos Island, many islands fell from the sky. According to the people on them, they have been floating in the air for more than ten years. This is obviously Shiki's doing."

"The key point is that when these islands were landed, some people saw traces of the Black Wolf's crew!"

"Even Shiki has connections with that bastard?"

The Five Elders with their upturned mustaches were almost bursting with rage. "Was that bastard born to oppose the government?"

The other Five Elders also sighed inwardly; this was indeed a very troublesome matter.

Not only are the Black Wolf's crew incredibly strong, but they also have excellent relationships with many monsters.

Kaido goes without saying; Black Wolf is his disciple, and White Wolf is his daughter.

In the East Blue and the South Blue, Black Wolf's two joint operations with his Revolutionary Army inflicted heavy losses on CP0.

On Sabaody Archipelago, Dark King Rayleigh's sudden appearance helped Sirius and his crew break through the Navy's strongest blockade, and incidentally forced Zephyr to retire from service.

Now another Golden Lion has appeared.

"That guy is really about to unleash a terrifying force!"

The blond-haired member of the Five Elders, dressed in a burgundy suit, said worriedly, "But the power we possess is constantly waning. Could that guy really be Joey from this era—"

"That's just a ridiculous legend!"

Wearing a black hat and sporting a thick beard, the Five Elders interrupted his colleague, "Since we can't do anything about it in the short term, let's just pass the ball to someone else."

"How's Vegapunk doing? The Artificial Devil Fruit?"

"It seems he's already made some progress; he's preparing to create a Devil Fruit using Kaido's Lineage Factor."

"Mythical Zoan? Interesting. If this succeeds, then the Great Pirate Era will be nothing to fear."

"Oh right, there seemed to be another guy who appeared with Black Wolf and Golden Lion at the time, but he left alone later."

"Issue an arrest warrant and let the navy capture him."

Sirius was unaware of what his good friend Urouge would encounter next, as the Sirius Pirates' journey continued.

The Drum Kingdom is a world-renowned medical powerhouse. Although the country is small in size and is a winter island covered in ice and snow all year round, the island's inhabitants are able to live a prosperous life simply through the efforts of the doctors who live on the island.

But that was all in the past.

Since the new King came to power, the country has begun to expel doctors from the island. Apart from the 20 doctors that the King himself selected to serve him, there are no other doctors on the island.

In this way, whether they were locals or outsiders, anyone who wanted to see a doctor could only pay exorbitant medical fees and beg for the King's mercy.

The good news is that this has led to some development in the medical field on the surrounding islands.

Of course, these things had nothing to do with Sirius and his group who were there for sightseeing.

At the highest point of Drum Island, where the King's Palace is located, Sirius stands on the edge of the cliff, gazing at the entire island.

The snow fell heavily, and when looking into the distance, everything appeared blurry.

"How is it, Sirius?"

Yamato was standing next to him, asked with a grin, "How do you feel?"

Sirius replied earnestly, "I just feel very cold."

Although he was strong, he was not immune to heat or cold, and he was now wearing a cotton-padded coat.

On the contrary, Yamato and shorts today.

"Are you cold?"

Yamato took Sirius's right hand and held it in his hands. "How are you? Are you warmer now?"

Sirius rolled his eyes. "Your hands are as cold as ice."

"Huh? But I feel very warm!" Yamato was greatly surprised.

She's not immune to the cold, she's just not afraid of it.

"Fool."

Sirius shook his head helplessly, opened his cotton-padded coat, and wrapped Yamato inside as well. "That should make things better."

"Hey-hey."

Yamato peeked out from her collar, the tip of her ponytail brushing against Sirius's face. She chuckled softly, "Sirius, we've merged! It feels so cool!"

She also put her hand inside her sleeve and began trying to lead Sirius along.

Is this the main point?

"Let's end this sweet talk now."

At that moment, Luo emerged from the castle at the back, accompanied by Black. "Everything's taken care of."

"That's really fast."

Sirius said with a smile.

"What," Luo raised an eyebrow, "Are you annoyed that we're bothering you?"

How could that be?

Sirius laughed heartily.

Once inside the palace, it was much warmer. Sirius unzipped his cotton-padded coat Yamato out.

Then he pulled up a chair, sat down, and looked down at the person on the ground in front of him.

The group of friends formed a circle, surrounding a group of people wearing green robes, hoods, masks, and sunglasses, as well as a terrified fat man.

There's no need to be afraid.

Sirius laughed and said, "We're not good people."

The fat man's face turned deathly pale in an instant.

His name was Wapol, the King of the Drum Kingdom. Having attended the Reverie just last year, he naturally knew who this man was. This guy was a monster that the King had collectively discussed! A monster who posed a significant threat to the world's security!

Why would someone like that suddenly appear here?!

Wapol found it difficult to understand.

"Two requirements,"

Sirius held up two fingers. "My ship's doctor needs your medical books."

"Second,"

He looked at the trembling Wapol and said, "You're Devil Fruit User, right? You can combine whatever you eat at will."

"Then please do me a favor."
