NTR Right in Front of Them? Best Two Out of Three

In the center of the island floating in the sky is a cluster of buildings in the style of Wano Country.

The corridors, arched bridges, and dougong brackets and flying eaves are layered upon each other. Dry waterfalls and hanging rocks adorn the secluded courtyard. Koi swim in the clear pond. Only occasionally does a startled deer, its water full, suddenly plunge down and hit the stone with a thud, breaking the tranquil atmosphere.

"You've done a really good job here, Uncle Shiki,"

As Roa walked across an arched bridge, he looked around at the scenery and couldn't help but marvel, "It's much better than Big Brother Kaido's palace in Wano Country."

This building has a high artistic value.

I've never seen Wano Country like this before.

It's just that those smoky, chaotic pirates guarding various places are really a bit of an eyesore.

"Hahahaha!"

The Golden Lion, walking alongside Roa, laughed loudly, "I'm not like some guys with no aesthetic sense. This place was specially designed by a designer I invited."

"If you like,"

He glanced back slightly, a smile playing on his lips, his words brimming with amusement, "I'll give you this island."

With his abilities, he could take any island he wanted, as long as it wasn't too big.

However, it seems he wasn't saying this to Roa.

At the very least, Kaido, who was walking behind while drinking, suddenly turned fierce. "Shiki, do you really want to die?"

"Oh?"

The Golden Lion slowly turned his head. "You brat who ran off without being invited, when did you dare to say such things to me?"

"Stop being so arrogant, Shiki. Do you think things are still the same as six years ago?"

Kaido showed no weakness.

Instantly, jet-black Inazuma bolts leaped from both of them, and two terrifying bursts of Conqueror's Haki collided abruptly.

Dylan, who was following further back and deliberately keeping a distance from the three, couldn't help but smile wryly.

Lord Roa is far too popular; the former officers of the Rocks Pirates are all infatuated with him.

Bullet, Abel, Doflamingo were with him, all sizing up the Golden Lion.

One of the three World's Strongest, the king who reigns supreme in the skies, Golden Lion Shiki, actually appeared right in front of them like this.

However, unlike Doflamingo, who was simply amazed, Bullet and Abel were more wary.

"Alright, let's not be so tense,"

Roa smiled and walked between the two, raising his hands to interrupt their impending argument. "We're old friends. Whatever you have to say, let's save it for the banquet."

"Fine, for your sake, kid."

Golden Lion Shiki sneered and glanced at Kaido again, "Let's spare this ignorant brat for now."

"Snort."

Kaido sneered in return.

And so, soon, the banquet began in the main house of this courtyard.

It's also Wano Country- style individual dining system, with each person at a small table set with dishes that, frankly, might not be enough to fill you up.

Although he looked down on Kaido, Golden Lion didn't deliberately humiliate him.

Kaido was placed alongside Roa and himself, all seated at the very top.

Golden Lion is in the center, with Roa and Kaido on either side of him.

Below Roa were several of his subordinates.

Opposite Dylan and his group were three men with imposing presence.

The leader was a tall, strong, bald man dressed in overalls, looking like he had just come from a construction site.

Below the burly man, a tall, thin young man with three-sectioned arms, carrying a long sniper rifle, was silently drinking.

Finally, there was a middle-aged man who looked listless, slightly overweight, and yawning constantly.

They were the top officers under the Golden Lion who had never appeared in the original work; Roa had seen their names many times in newspapers and wanted posters.

While eating in silence, the top officers of the Flying Pirates were also secretly glancing at Roa out of the corner of their eyes.

Although I had seen Roa's appearance in newspapers and wanted posters, this was the first time I had seen him in person.

My first impression was, wow, she's so young.

She's really only thirteen years old.

But at this age, they already possessed a power that they could only dream of.

He's a monster among monsters; no wonder the admiral is so obsessed with him.

"How nostalgic! Roa,"

Completely ignoring Kaido sitting on the other side, Golden Lion simply turned to Roa and said, "The last time we had a banquet together was six years ago, on the eve of arriving at God Valley, wasn't it?"

The next day marked the moment when the Rocks Pirates fell apart.

"I don't miss it at all,"

Roa glanced disdainfully at the food on the table in front of him and said pointedly, "The captain's stingy; he won't even let me have a proper meal before the battle starts."

"Hahahaha! Trying to reduce your own fighting strength before the battle? Even that Rocks isn't as crazy as you!"

The Golden Lion was relieved to see that Roa was still the same Roa he admired.

"However, I've already prepared it for you!"

He clapped his hands.

Suddenly, the sounds of fighting erupted outside the main hall.

The black mist had already drifted in through the door.

"It has to be Uncle Shiki, you!"

Roa immediately enjoyed the unexpected feast with great satisfaction.

"Good to know. I've been looking for you all these years."

The Golden Lion laughed and said, "How about it, Roa, come to my side! You are my disciple and will also be my successor. If we join forces, who in the world can stand against us?"

Kaido on the other side immediately turned ashen-faced.

That bastard Golden Lion doesn't take him seriously at all.

Before he could say anything, Golden Lion had already turned around and given him a contemptuous glance, then sneered, "What future is there in following Kaido? Do you enjoy playing house with him in the shadows?"

"After all these years in the New World, I don't have a single subordinate whose name I can even recall."

He then glanced at Roa's subordinates. "These guys under you, aren't they the Kaido's dream come true?"

Roa slightly raised his head, looking over the head of the Golden Lion at Kaido, whose face had turned completely black.

He got hit right in the face with a powerful attack.

But it seems that's really true.

Big Brother Kaido, could it be that you're the one who's clinging to someone powerful?

"But it's different here!"

Golden Lion's tone grew increasingly arrogant, "I possess the largest fleet in the New World! The most powerful pirate crew! If you come and help me, we can wipe out all our opponents!"

"That sounds pretty good."

Roa was somewhat intoxicated.

It has to be said that Uncle Shiki was very well prepared; the quality of the black aura was very high.

"Hey, Roa!"

Kaido immediately panicked.

After all, if they don't hurry, Roa will be snatched away by the Golden Lion!

He was as anxious as an incompetent husband watching a video.

No, it seems we need to be even more urgent!

The Golden Lion's smile widened.

Is there even a need to think about choosing between myself and Kaido?

"But, Uncle Shiki,"

Roa said, "Big Brother Kaido is bad in every way, but he has two good points. First, he and I are equals. Neither of us will order the other around. After all, in this life, the captain is enough to be above me. There are rumors at sea that I am going to revive the Rocks Pirates, but there will never be another Rocks, and we will never be able to return to Beehive Island."

The smile on the Golden Lion's face gradually faded.

Roa continued, "Secondly, we share a common goal and have agreed to work together towards it. People with the same ideals are rare at sea."

Big Brother Kaido is an incompetent husband, but Law is not a depraved wife!

"Roa!"

Kaido's eyes were filled with emotion.

Although he was an extreme socialist, he was not without feelings.

In the original work, Charlotte Linlin also grieves because of her defeat.

Did you choose him without hesitation when faced with a choice between him and the Golden Lion?

We share the same ideals! We share the same ideals!

Roa, you little rascal, you really are my best brother!

Kaido with excitement.

So, you're saying you're going to refuse me?

The Golden Lion's eyes instantly turned cold.

Roa couldn't help but sigh.

This is how Big Brother Kaido was when we met six months ago, this is how Aunt Linlin was when we met two months ago, and this is how Uncle Shiki is now.

Are all of you guys domineering CEOs?

Does he always want to force himself on me?

The process is almost entirely copied and pasted; can't you come up with something new?

"How about we try a different approach, Uncle Shiki?"

Roa laughed and said, "Why don't you join our alliance? Even Aunt Linlin has agreed to cooperate with us."

"We can't rebuild the Rocks Pirates, but we can certainly create the first Rocks Alumni Association, right?"

"I'm not interested in your childish games!"

The Golden Lion picked up the wine cup and drank the clear liquid inside in one gulp, his voice as cold as ice.

"That's such a pity."

Roa said with a regretful expression, "How can you become a GOAT if you don't team up at the peak?"

"Enough with the nonsense,"

The Golden Lion said coldly, "Kid, you know I won't give up so easily."

"If you want to fight, I'll fight you to the bitter end!"

Kaido slammed his fist on the table and roared angrily.

"Fine, as long as I kill you, that brat Roa will have no other ambitions."

Golden Lion turned to look at Kaido, his eyes filled with the disgust of an old father looking at his blond-haired son who had snuggled up to his little darling.

The roles have been reversed.

"Alright, hasn't the banquet just begun?"

Roa said somewhat helplessly, "We haven't even eaten much yet. If you really want to fight, let's wait until after the banquet."

"Hmph, this guy probably can't eat anything now!"

Kaido's tone was smug.

Roa chose him without hesitation; Golden Lion is the loser this time!

"In that case, let's start by setting the mood."

Roa looked down at the high-ranking officers of the Flying Pirates who had already begun to stand guard. "I'm very curious, Uncle Shiki, what kind of strength do your officers possess?"

Enraged by Roa's answer, the Golden Lion paused for a moment, then subconsciously looked at Bullet and the others. "I also want to see what kind of power this guy possesses that you can get your approval."

"That's right, we're all old friends, there's no need for a life-or-death struggle that tears off our relationship."

Roa laughed and said, "I propose we have a best-of-three match. First, each of us will choose two people to fight. If one wins and the other loses, then in the third match, Big Brother Kaido and I will face you, Uncle Shiki. The winner takes all, and the loser has nothing to say. How about it?"

Uncle Shiki has been really good to him; there's no need to completely break ties.

Are you two going to take on me alone?

The Golden Lion sneered, "You've got a clever plan, haven't you?"

"After all, it's Uncle Shiki. We have absolutely no chance of winning in a one-on-one fight, right?"

Roa laughed and said, "Besides, Big Brother Kaido and I are brothers who have lived and died together."

"Snort."

Kaido smirked.

"That's settled then!"

The Golden Lion roared with laughter, "Hahahaha! My little minions, who will be the first to help me achieve victory?"

One of the three officers, the bald one who was in the lead, stood up. "Admiral, please leave it to me."

"Good!"

The Golden Lion nodded happily.

"They've sent out their strongest executive, Skullcrusher Hyde, for the very first match?"

Roa looked at his subordinates, "That—"

Bullet couldn't wait to stand up.

But.

"Abel, you can go first."

"Roa said."

"Yes."

Abel stood up.
