With the call over, the strategy to wipe out the Roger Pirates was thus decided.

The Flying Pirates, the Charlotte Family, and the Beasts Pirates have already begun their operation.

However, Roa remained calmly on Egghead Island, waiting for the Golden Lion to pick him up. With a more convenient mode of transportation, there was no need for him to travel on his own.

While they were all taking action, the three of the Seven Monarchs who were not involved in this New World held a small meeting immediately after the call ended.

"The opportunity has arrived!"

Ochoku spoke first, setting the tone for the three-person meeting. "I was just thinking about how to weaken Golden Lion or Roa. There's no better weapon Roger Pirates, is there?"

"It's not that easy."

Captain John spoke slowly, "Roa and Shiki aren't fools. They won't risk a fight to the death with Roger just to help Linlin."

"Roa is hard to say, but Shiki— "

Ochoku's voice carried a hint of suppressed amusement, "Do I need to elaborate on how obsessed he is with Roger? I simply don't believe he could resist taking action after encountering Roger!"

"This-"

Even the usually composed Captain John couldn't help but pause for a moment.

That's really true!

Shiki had already held Roger in high regard back in the Rocks Pirates era, regarding him as his lifelong enemy, even though at that time Roger's opponent was Rocks.

Whatever the Golden Lion's plans may be, could he resist taking action the moment he sees Roger?

"However, Golden Lion is traveling with Roa, Kaido, and Linlin. Even if a battle breaks out, they probably have no chance of being defeated!"

Silver Axe couldn't help but speak up.

The Gold, Silver, and Bronze trio of the Roger Pirates were indeed powerful, but no matter how powerful they were, they could never be a match for Shiki, Roa, Kaido, Linlin working together.

As for the powerful officers of Roger Pirates, could they possibly defeat the officers of four different forces single-handedly?

It's safe to say that if war breaks out, the Roger Pirates will inevitably be defeated! There is absolutely no other possibility!

"So, this is when we're needed!"

Ochoku chuckled, "Nobody can figure out that crazy brat Roa, but Shiki is different! How about creating a Flying Pirates that can take on the Roger Pirates one-on-one?"

"We told them we'd help them find the Roger Pirates!"

"Oh? That sounds interesting."

"Hahaha! Count me in! Roger needs our help too!"

So, they're just too united.

Egghead Island.

That's it.

After ending the call, Roa called all his subordinates over and briefly explained the current situation, "The work on transforming this island will have to be temporarily suspended."

"So, Boss! Is the next opponent the Roger Pirates?"

Bullet clenched his fists in considerable excitement.

The last time I clashed with the Roger Pirates was almost two years ago. Although we encountered them once on Fish-Man Island Roger Pirates, we didn't fight that time; instead, we had a peaceful banquet together.

The last encounter was quite frustrating for Bullet, as he appeared very weak in front of Roger Pirates.

But things are different now! Two years later, everything is different!

Although he still wouldn't be a match for Roger, Rayleigh, Jabbar, and the other two, Barrett was confident he would never lose to anyone else on Roger's ship!

"Don't rush,"

Roa chuckled, "I bet quite a few people are looking forward to us going to war with the Roger Pirates."

"BosS, you mean,"

Dylan immediately understood what Roa meant. "Someone wants to use this opportunity to weaken us?"

"The World Government?"

Abel said.

"Hahaha, of course the World Government thinks that way, but right now, aren't Boss's allies just as excited as they are?"

Teach raised the corners of his mouth, his smile unusually strange. "Right now, besides the World Government, aren't they the ones most afraid of our continued rise to power?"

Beside him, Loki, who had just finished his training and whose face was still covered in sweat, glanced down at Teach with annoyance and curled his lip in disdain.

Rocks' son?

So utterly despicable!

He won't admit it!

"If that's the case, why should we get involved in such a ridiculous matter?"

Doflamingo asked, somewhat puzzled.

"I need to see Roger; there's something very important I need to discuss."

Roa's lips curled slightly as he smiled at Doflamingo, "What's wrong, Doflamingo? Is there a problem?"

No, no, no!

Doflamingo's face instantly paled, and he shook his head like a spinning top. "Of course not! I'm just curious!"

In short,

Roa chuckled, "Just wait and see, something earth-shattering may be about to happen."

"Earth-shattering?"

Loki, holding his spiked club, asked with great interest, "What is it?"

Wasn't I telling you to look forward to it?

Roa countered, "If it's revealed now, where's the anticipation?"

"Tch! Always trying to keep us in suspense!"

Loki snorted and yelled, "Dylan! Keep going! I refuse to believe that mere Haki is that hard to learn!"

"Well, Boss, I'll get back to work now."

Dylan bowed slightly to Roa.

"Go on, go on! Studying is the most important thing!"

Roa watched the two figures leave with a sense of satisfaction.

It's a good thing to be eager to learn!

Loki has been hardworking since he was a child!

Such a good child really deserves a reward.

It's just a pity that Enma was given to that kid Doflamingo.

At the time, I just felt that Bullet wasn't suited to using a sword, and that he would eventually master true Conqueror's Haki, so it would be better to give the sword to Doflamingo. After all, that kid relies entirely on his equipment to maintain his strength.

But who would have thought that even after Enma was turned into a belt by Doflamingo, it would still be able to function!

Roa immediately regretted it; if that were the case, Bullet would obviously have been a much better fit.

But it seems a bit embarrassing to take back something you've already given away.

Furthermore, Enma is far too small for Loki. Even if Famous Sword can adapt to the user's body size, it shouldn't be able to adapt to this extent.

Um?

Etc!

Since Doflamingo was able to make Enma work even when it was made into a belt, what if Enma were divided into two parts?

Including the Bullet, three parts wouldn't be a bad idea.

Bullet made gauntlets for him without using a knife, Loki was too big, so he was incorporated into his spiked club.

Roa stroked her chin, "It's worth a try."

Anyway, Kozuki Sukiyaki as our technical support.

If it actually succeeds, that would be very interesting.

A few days later, a huge island flew over Egghead Island.

Wow! What's that?!

Loki, witnessing such a scene for the first time, was stunned into silence.

Not only him, Dorry and Brogy were equally astonished. "An island, an island that flies in the sky?"

I've heard of the legends of Sky Island, but surely you can't just wander around anywhere like that?

Let's go.

Roa smiled and said, "Our people have arrived."

"Ah! A person?"

Loki was utterly stunned. "You mean, this is someone's ability? To move an island into the sky?"

That's way too exaggerated!

If such an island were to fall from the sky, it would be smashed to pieces in an instant!

"You still recognize me?"

Just then, a man descended from the sky, shouting, "Hahahaha! Roa, I've come to get you!"

Later, the snails had all moved to the island in the sky. The huge island slowly started moving, heading towards the front of the New World to continue its journey to reunite with Kaido and Charlotte Linlin.

In the palace complex at the center of the island.

Because the three giants were so tall, the banquet to welcome the Calamity Company had to be held in a spacious courtyard.

"Oh, it was you!"

The three giants sat alone on the outermost edge. Loki carefully examined the Golden Lion, "That swordsman following behind Rocks!"

This guy accompanied Rocks on his first trip to Elbaf.

"I never expected that you, the giant prince, would actually come under Roa's spell."

The Golden Lion looked up at Loki, his eyes filled with considerable displeasure.

So he immediately looked down at Roa, "So Roa, how did you manage that? In my memory, Harald has never been a pleasant person!"

Roa simply smiled and replied, "Harald is the captain's friend, so naturally he's my friend. What's wrong with a friend entrusting his child to my care?"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Loki burst into laughter. "So that's how it is? I had no idea!"

Dorry and Brogy drank their wine with melancholy expressions.

The Golden Lion snorted.

Is it time to inherit Rocks's network of connections again?

But!

It all seems a bit too exaggerated!

Besides Prince Loki, the other two giants traveling with him were actually the two captains of the Giant Soldier Pirates who roamed the seas seventy years ago: Blue Ogre Dorry and Red Ogre Brogy!

That brat Roa obtained an far too powerful force from Elbaf!

If he had known it could be done to this extent, he should have chosen that area of the sea!

It shouldn't have come to this point, with the balance of power between the Calamity Company and the Flying Pirates completely unbalanced!

After all, the original cadres under Roa were already exceptionally talented!

Golden Lion glanced at Bullet and Abel.

The auras of these two brats are ridiculously strong, almost comparable to Skullcrusher Hyde, the strongest of his subordinates!

The current Calamity Company is frighteningly powerful.

Newgate was slinked away by Roa and is said to have left the New World.

I don't want to repeat his mistakes!

Golden Lion didn't want to wait until the day when Roa felt he was also an eyesore in the New World, only to have him slink away like Whitebeard.

"Roa, Roger is my prey, is that alright?"

The Golden Lion looked at Roa, his tone becoming slightly serious.

"What ever."

Roa didn't care at all, and even joked, "But Uncle Shiki, aren't you being a little too obsessed with Roger? How many years has it been, how many times has it happened?"

"You wouldn't understand, kid."

Shiki's tone suddenly became somewhat elusive, "In that era, Roger was our only and strongest enemy!"

"The only thing that can truly mark the end of that era is the fall of the Roger Pirates!"

"Oh! That sounds pretty exciting!"

Roa clapped his hands with a smile, "What else is there to say, Uncle Shiki? Roger is in your hands now!"

"Hehehehe! That's good!"

The Golden Lion laughed heartily.

As he laughed, he gave Roa a deep look.

Finally, let's try to win Roger over!

This is the best opportunity imaginable!

If that guy is willing to ally with me, who can stop me? Not even Roa!

L was initially worried that his own strength was insufficient to deal with Roger, but coincidentally, Linlin formed this temporary alliance.

This time, the force gathered and suppressed is truly enough to completely destroy the Roger Pirates!

Roger, can you still refuse as resolutely as you used to?

My fellow pirates, with your wives and children in dire straits, how can you refuse the olive branch I extend to you?

Speaking of pressure, it shouldn't be this complicated.

If Roa hadn't received that mythical Devil Fruit, he might actually have been able to recruit a powerful fighter.

In that case, with the help of favorable timing and location, it's not impossible for them to fight the Roger Pirates!

That wretched Roa!

That fruit was a waste; instead, it added another powerful fighting force to Roa's side!

As the Golden Lion pondered the matter, Roa laughed along.

Since Uncle Shiki wants to fight Roger so much, let's grant his wish!

Yes, a fair fight, he'd probably like it.

The large island continued to fly forward, and a few days later, the Beasts Pirates and Charlotte Family's fleet were also brought to this island by Golden Lion. They met up near Wano Country and waited for Golden Lion to escort them.

"Mother, Mother!"

Upon arriving at the Sky Island, Charlotte Linlin gave Roa a warm hug, exclaiming, "I knew you'd always support me, Roa! All that love I've given you wasn't for nothing!"

"We're like family, Aunt Linlin, of course I'll help you."

As Roa responded with a smile, his gaze passed over Charlotte Linlin's shoulder and flicked at Katakuri behind her.

Katakuri's ferocious mouth suddenly grinned into a pleased smile, and he waved at him.

"So, Roa, where is Loki?! Get him out of here so I can see him!"

One second she put down Roa, and the next second Charlotte Linlin couldn't wait to ask.

If she gains the approval of the Saturnian prince, does that mean she will also receive the power of the Saturnians, just like Roa?

Roa just smiled. "Aunt Linlin, don't forget our agreement. You help me once, and I'll help you once. Now it's my turn to help you."

Want to get something for nothing?

Charlotte Linlin gritted her teeth slightly.

"Don't forget the important business, Linlin. I didn't make this special trip just to see you flirting with the giant!"

A cold snort came from behind, directly interrupting Charlotte Linlin before she could say anything more.

Kaido was followed by Hanafusa and Sien, looked displeased.

"Hahaha! You're right! You don't actually want to snatch her away right in front of Roa, do you? Linlin!"

The Golden Lion laughed heartily, "Then let's have a civil war before we find Roger, but I don't care."

Charlotte Linlin pursed her lips, forcing back her resentment.

Although the coveted Saturnian race is now within her reach, the more important thing right now is the Roger Pirates!

Moreover, angering Roa wouldn't be a good thing either.

"I understand! Let's deal with that bastard Roger first!"

"So, Aunt Linlin,"

"Have you found Roger's whereabouts?" Roa asked with great interest.

"Found it."

Kaido continued, "We replenished our supplies on one of my islands, and now we're heading towards your territory, Roa."

"I see?"

Roa nodded.

They have now occupied the entire New World, and almost all the islands inhabited by humans are under their control. As long as the Roger Pirates need to replenish their supplies, their exposure will be extremely high.

"Hahaha! What are we waiting for? Let's chase them!"
