"Wow... that's amazing..."

" With Prince Sanji's fighting prowess, how could he possibly lose..."

"Ahem, perhaps there was a mistake. After all, you all know Prince Yonji's personality."

A group of clone soldiers nodded repeatedly. Their information about "Prince Sanji" mainly came from the arrogant, impulsive, and reckless Yonji. Now, if this was considered a "failure," then what were the other three princes? Uncombustible waste...?

"How could this piece of trash be so strong?!"

Not only was Commander-in-Chief Vinsmoke Judge defeated, but even his "second brother," Vinsmoke Niji, with his wavy blue hair, counter-clockwise curled eyebrows, blue combat uniform, and black cloak, knelt on one knee. Because:

"Discharge capability?"

Sanji casually exhaled a smoke ring and ignored it.

"Your lightning is not even as good as the 'Stimulating Electricity' that our Straw Hat crew uses for training. Can it really be used as a weapon?"

"You--?!"

"Step back, Niji."

Vinsmoke Ichiji, the eldest of the four brothers, stepped forward.

"It's obvious that Sanji has received special lightning resistance training, and your abilities are greatly diminished in front of him."

"No, no, no, that wasn't special training at all. It was downright torture..."

Recalling the days when the group of people were either gritting their teeth or chatting and laughing while training under Nami's electric charm, Sanji's expression softened, and the anger in his chest gradually dissipated.

"However, thanks to our staff officer, I'm extremely familiar with these abilities like lightning, fire, and explosions. They're basically just methods like paralysis, acceleration, collision, and explosion..."

Are the Vinsmoke Family weak?

Of course it's not weak!

Leaving aside the commander-in-chief Vinsmoke Judge, the remaining three men and one woman are all cyborgs with 'Bloodline Factor,' which are essentially the 'Bloodline Factor sequences' Roman is familiar with. And in this world, powerful creatures abound:

For example, on the island where Luffy trained, the creatures there certainly didn't have any 'Haki,' but they were still able to beat Luffy to a pulp! They even forced Luffy to develop Fourth Gear before he could dominate the island.

The entire Vinsmoke family, except for Sanji who is still normal, possesses skin as hard as steel, speed comparable to a galloping horse, and strength to bend steel from a young age. Add to that the superpowers brought about by the later manifestation of their 'Bloodline Factor,' and they are definitely at the level of high-ranking officers of the Four Emperors! However:

"It's hard to believe that none of you have any Haki."

In this New World, the Vinsmoke family is probably the only ones who fight solely based on their 'physical strength'. While their 'Bloodline Factor' grants them inhumanly powerful bodies, it is precisely because of this that they can never break free from the shackles of their innate talent and become true masters!

While being emotionless (though they do possess some) makes them incredibly sharp as 'weapons', it is precisely because of this that they lack the focus to 'wholeheartedly' throw a punch, and the explosive power to 'hear danger' under the threat of death. Therefore, none of the Vinsmoke family members possess Haki.

"Anyway, the reason I obediently came here was originally just... well, it's all in the past."

"As for the wedding, whoever wants to go can go!"

········

"Able to defeat Father, Niji, Yonji,"

As the eldest brother Ichiji was the most perfectly 'reformed,' arrogant and cold-blooded, regarding human life as worthless. Compared to his two younger brothers, he was more calm and cautious—and also more ruthless.

"What a waste of such fighting strength."

"Well, I'm truly sorry, but my power was honed to protect my comrades! It has absolutely nothing to do with cold-blooded people like you. So—"

Sanji looked at his 'big brother', Vinsmoke Ichiji, who had long, fiery red hair that covered his right eye, a left eyebrow that swirled to the left, and wore the same red battle suit and white cape.

"Would you like to fight me too?"

·········

To fight or not to fight, that is the question.

If he fought, Ichiji wasn't confident of victory; if he didn't fight, his pride wouldn't allow him to save face. Therefore:

"Reiju, do it!"

After a shout, Ichiji immediately charged towards Sanji at high speed! At the same time, Reiju joined the battle. —That's right, if you can't win one-on-one, gang up on him; as a cyborg, Ichiji wouldn't feel 'ashamed' about it. Moreover:

Brush,

Sanji could fight back against his three brothers, but when faced with Reiju, the only person he was close to when they were children, Sanji was a beat too slow to react and was defeated.

Click,

"What's this?"

Vinsmoke Judge breathed a sigh of relief as he flew back and faced Sanji, whose wrists were cuffed with two 'handcuffs'.

Given Sanji's demonstrated strength, if he were to jump into the sea to escape, it's unlikely anyone could stop him. In that case, the Vinsmoke Family would either have to send another person for a marriage alliance, or prepare to face the wrath of 'Big Mom'.

"This is Explosion Bracelet,"

Vinsmoke Judge stepped forward and stopped Ichiji's attack.

"I didn't want things to come to this point either—you know about the explosive collars used to kill slaves in Sabaody, right? This thing works on the same principle; if you try to break the bracelet or leave the territory of Whole Cake Island, it will automatically explode."

"As a 'cook,' you can't be indifferent to the health of your hands, can you?"

········

"You're still the same scumbag as always."

Vinsmoke Judge remained indifferent to his own son's words. After all, he wouldn't have even thought of this 'useless' son if it weren't for the arranged marriage.

Now it seems, while his strength is surprisingly formidable, his mind remains as weak as ever! Useless—

"Say what you will, the key is in 'BIG MOM's' hands, you're getting married!"

"Snort,"

After fighting three rounds, Sanji turned and walked into the building next to him, without even glancing at his 'father' again.

Have you resigned yourself to your fate?

While Vinsmoke Judge thought that way, Sanji was thinking:

Hmm, let Luffy and let him... never mind, let Roman do it; that guy Luffy always manages to make simple things complicated.

Explosion Bracelet?

Back in Sabaody, Rayleigh, the "Pluton," already demonstrated how to violently dismantle this thing. Luffy and Roman both possess Armament Haki techniques, so they're not afraid of it at all. Besides, Roman has a whole host of strange and unusual abilities; a mere explosive wrist is a piece of cake for him, right? So:

Let's just wait patiently for Luffy and his Luffy to appear.

Since his sister's message was. "Give them a good beating," it means Roman has already dealt with the Straw Hat crew's concerns. After all, Roman still holds the dual identities of "candidate Admiral" and "Celestial Dragons," and these few days are enough for him to mobilize his forces to protect his family in the East Blue. The only remaining issue is:

The Four Emperors, BIG MOM!

"I'm the chef of the future King of the Pirates, let me cook for you?"

Do you deserve it?

"I'm the chef of the future King of the Pirates, why don't you let me cook for you?"

········

"Isn't it inappropriate for us to eavesdrop on Sanji's conversation like this?" Nami raised her hand.

"Ah... I originally just wanted to see if he needed any help, but..." Roman helplessly spread his hands. He remembered a scene where Sanji was bullied by his 'family,' so he used the 'Den Den Mushi Paper' on Sanji's wrist to find out what was going on, but all he 'heard' was Sanji putting on a great show...

"Waaaaah, Sanji said he won't go through with this marriage!"

Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper hugged each other and cried their eyes out.

"Sanji, I'm sorry! We underestimated you—" x3

"Hmph, what's so good about women?"

Zoro raised one eyelid and glanced disdainfully at the paper placed among the group. The sound of Sanji talking to himself coming from inside the paper made the corners of his mouth curl up slightly.

Despite constantly calling Sanji a "perverted kappa," how could Zoro not care about Sanji's situation?

"If we're taking Sanji with us, we can set off now."

The Straw Hat crew is currently floating in the sky not far above Whole Cake Chateau. In fact, Big Mom has already spotted this "airship" that has transformed from an airplane. Of course, at the same time, Roman's white doves are also openly flying in the sky above Whole Cake Chateau.

The fact that two users who are equally skilled in Super Creation detection and Observation Haki collide is why the Straw Hat crew keeps their 'distance' from each other.

"Although we've already been spotted by Big Mom, I can still use the Door-Door Page to open a passage and sneak into the Vinsmoke family's castle to take Sanji away. — But don't even think about anything else."

"No! There's Jinbe Poneglyph!"

Now that he knows Sanji isn't really going to get married and leave the Straw Hat crew, Luffy, having calmed down, once again puts his "intelligence" back online, or rather, his willfulness.

"We can't just slink away like this, or how can we become the King of the Pirates?"

"That's right,"

Roman nodded, and of course he had detailed reasons.

"If we just quietly take Sanji away, the BIG MOM Pirates will only look down on us. And they will definitely attack our relatives in the in the East Blue without restraint—even if the people I send can protect them, what if Big Mom expands her attack range?"

"Directly destroy the Baratie, attack Cocoyasi Village, and even assault Shimotsuki Dojo..."

Forget about the last one; unless Sweet Commanders goes, it's just suicide.

Just like America in its past life, it can drop bombs on that small country's head whenever it wants, and 'sanction' whomever it desires. The reason, to put it bluntly, is simply that it has the power to attack, and the country has no way to retaliate!

"Only if we demonstrate our strength and can retaliate against the BIG MOM Pirates in the same way will they stop targeting the East Blue. Because that would invite our retaliation."

Why doesn't America use force to retaliate against the other four permanent members of the UN Security Council? It's precisely because the four permanent members have the power to retaliate, even the power to inflict serious damage or take America down with them!

Peace is something built on strength. Peace without strength is not peace, it is charity.

Although the Straw Hat crew includes loners like Robin, Roman, and Brook who have no ties to the outside world, everyone in the Straw Hat crew is a comrade. They would never want to see anyone else's loved ones harmed, therefore:

"Roman, you're in charge of making the plan."

Luffy made the decision.

"Tell us what to do—"

He adjusted his straw Straw Hat.

"Sanji, I'll take him back! Jinbe, I'll join my crew! And the Poneglyphs leading to Laugh Tale Poneglyph, I'll take them all! Because I'm going to be the King of the Pirates!"

"Okay, King of the Pirates."
