The Empty New World! The World Government's Desperate Gamble!

"If you want to dominate the New World, why not just wipe out all the other guys New World?"

Wano Country, Onigashima, Castle Keep.

Bullet was very annoyed. "Whether it's Whitebeard or Charlotte Linlin, they're nothing more than objects you could easily destroy with a snap of your fingers now, let alone Crocodile."

At this point, even the Whitebeard Pirates, the Charlotte Family, and the Cross Guild combined probably couldn't defeat the Beasts Pirates, let alone fighting individually.

Is it really necessary to be so polite to those guys?

What do you mean by "get them out of the New World"? Couldn't you just wipe them all out?

"Hehehehe!"

Teacher Kai, who was drinking from his gourd, also laughed and said, "Ian, what are you thinking, kid?"

Ian swirled a sake glass, took a small sip of sake, a specialty of Wano Country, and said, "At this stage, the World Government is our only and greatest enemy."

"Can the threat of the Dyna Stone alone completely undermine the government's resolve this time? I don't think so."

Given the World Government's level of apprehension towards him, Ian felt there was a high probability they would continue to act despite their reservations.

So what if it's Dyna Stone?

The government also has a batch of Dyna Stone in its possession.

It's just that they might not have the same ability as bears to easily drop Dyna Stone.

However, Ian thought it was unlikely that this thing alone could completely intimidate the World Government.

"To wage war against both the World Government and the monsters of the New World simultaneously would be incredibly reckless, playing right into the World Government's hands."

Ian said, "Anyway, after they find out we have Dyna Stone, neither Whitebeard nor Aunt Linlin should want to go to war with us anymore."

At this point, the monsters of the New World have become irrelevant.

You can deal with them whenever you want.

In fact, Ian always felt that these guys could be of help when the final battle against the World Government actually took place someday.

"Next,"

Ian picked up his glass and downed it in one gulp. "We'll see what they choose."

"If they really want to put up a last-ditch resistance, then we really have no choice but to deal with them first."

Ian's declaration indeed caused a huge stir in the New World.

Whole Cake Island.

"You brat!!"

Charlotte Linlin roared angrily.

Her frantic screams were interspersed with an overwhelming Conqueror's Haki, causing the entire castle to tremble.

Her children couldn't even get close; they could only cover their ears and look on in pain.

"Did they already take away the Dyna Stone by then?"

She recalled the time last year when she, Crocodile, and Ian went to seize Dyna Stone.

At that time, she and Crocodile both returned empty-handed. She thought that Ian, that bastard, would suffer the same fate, but probably by then he had already found a way to obtain the Dyna Stone!

That damn brat tricked everyone!

Even the World Government was completely fooled, utterly unaware that Zephyr no longer had the Dyna Stone!

"Mama!!"

Katakuri created rice balls to plug his ears and shouted at the top of his lungs, "The situation is dire! If we don't do something soon, Ian's bombing might be imminent!!"

Aunt Linlin's roaring gradually stopped, but her eyes were so dark they seemed to be dripping with water.

"Mama! That kid Ian still has a bunch of Dyna Stone!"

Seeing that their elderly mother had finally calmed down, Perospero quickly spoke up, "Under these circumstances, it would be far too dangerous to help the World Government go to war with them!"

Just thinking about that scene is terrifying.

One Dyna Stone could wipe out the entire Charlotte Family.

If Ian wanted to, destroying the entire Whole Cake Island would be a piece of cake.

"So what you mean, kid?"

Charlotte Linlin glared fiercely at Perospero, "Does this mean I have no choice but to obediently let that brat Ian threaten me and obediently get out of the New World?"

Perospero shuddered, instantly breaking out in a cold sweat.

Fear gripped his heart, terrified that his mother would cast Soul Spell on him at any moment.

"Mama,"

Seeing that his elder brother was incompetent, Katakuri quickly spoke up, "Now is not the time to act rashly! There is absolutely no need for us to become pawns for the World Government!"

"The Beasts Pirates are dangerous enough, but add Dyna Stone to the mix,"

The Charlotte Family's greatest masterpiece was already sweating. "One wrong move and we'll be wiped out!"

Charlotte Linlin's face darkened.

No matter how stubborn she was, she knew very well that the Beasts Pirates were no longer a force that her Charlotte Family could contend with.

With the addition of the Dyna Stone, starting a war with the Beasts Pirates now would be the most foolish thing imaginable.

Charlotte Linlin's eyes darted around, but she was already rapidly calculating the gains and losses in her mind.

After a long silence, she finally revealed a cold smile. "Then let that bastard Ian and the World Government take over the New World! Let them fight each other to the death!"

"Perospero, prepare to evacuate the New World!"

"Yes, Mama!"

Perospero let out a long sigh of relief.

Finally, we don't have to fight the Beasts Pirates anymore!

Katakuri deeply.

I had a somewhat complicated feeling.

Mama, she's probably scared too, right?

They just wouldn't admit it no matter what.

Around the same time, the Cross Guild...

Inside the ancient castle of a massive ocean-going ship.

Let's go to the West Blue.

Crocodile said that.

"Oh?"

Shiryu said with some surprise, "I thought you would be enraged by Ian's declaration and then think about fighting him to the death?"

"Don't talk nonsense,"

Crocodile rolled his eyes. "And then let the World Government get away with it? I'm not going to do something that stupid."

"Since Ian has the Dyna Stone, things are different now. Let him fight the World Government to his heart's content first."

"Damn it!"

Moria gritted his teeth.

"Stop damn it!"

Shiryu teased him with a grin, "Or, why don't you think of a way to deal with the Dyna Stone?"

Moria fell silent.

"Let's go, don't waste time,"

Crocodile said, "The sooner we reach the West Blue, the sooner we can begin our operation."

"The times may be about to undergo dramatic changes, so we need to be prepared!"

Shiryu nodded with a smile.

But his gaze was somewhat strange.

Crocodile, you made a great decision. Otherwise, I would have had to make a difficult one.

The back end of the New World.

The Whitebeard Pirates.

The atmosphere on the deck of the Moby Dick was somewhat somber today.

"Pops?"

Marco looked at his elderly father with a solemn expression.

What should we do?

What should we do next?

Should we leave the New World?

If they don't leave, they'll have to face the Beasts Pirates Beasts Pirates, who possess the Dyna Stone.

But what would happen to the islands and countries under the protection of the Whitebeard Pirates if they left?

"..."

The Whitebeard was grim.

The pirates on deck were already arguing incessantly.

One group argued that if they were forced to leave the New World by that bastard Ian, what face would the Whitebeard Pirates have left? And what would happen to the islands under the Whitebeard Pirates' protection?

Another group believed that compared to the survival of the pirate crew, what did a little face matter? As for the islands under their protection, there was even less to worry about. Everyone in the world knew that the countries and islands under Ian's command would only get better and better, so there was absolutely nothing to worry about.

The two groups each held their own opinions. The group advocating resistance accused the other side of being spineless and bowing to Ian, while the group advocating leaving the New World countered that only in this way could the Whitebeard Pirates be preserved, and that fighting the Beasts Pirates, who possessed the Dyna Stone, was simply asking for trouble.

At this moment, Vista, the Fifth Division Captain, suddenly spoke up. He said through gritted teeth, "I hate that guy Ian. I wish he were dead right now, and I feel incredibly ashamed to leave the New World just because he threatened me."

"But more than losing face, I don't want to lose my family."

He looked up at the Whitebeard, "Pops, let's leave the New World!"

Marco glanced at Vista, took a deep breath, and then said seriously, "Pops, I agree with Vista."

His Whitebeard, crescent-shaped beard trembled slightly, and he finally spoke, "Turn around, head towards the North Blue."

He sighed softly, "Notify the pirate crews that have joined us: those who want to go to the North Blue with us, come and join us; those who don't, better behave yourselves. That brat Ian hates all pirates except himself."

"Pops!"

Marco's eyes widened.

The Pops's voice was soft, but at that moment, it sounded like a thunderclap to Marco's ears.

His most admired Pops finally bowed his head.

But to Marco's embarrassment, at that moment, he actually felt a sense of relief!

This discovery struck him like Raigeki.

Marco, are you afraid of that Ian guy?

In the crowd, a dark-skinned, overweight man stood with his eyebrows lowered.

Pops, you're getting old.

In this era, there are no more ships you can board.

That evening, as the Moby Dick headed towards the North Blue, something happened.

"Pops! Teach is missing!"

Vista rushed to find Whitebeard, "One lifeboat is missing; he must have already left on his own."

"Teach?"

The Whitebeard was slightly taken aback.

Immediately, the World's Strongest Man looked slightly dejected. He sighed, "It seems I've disappointed Teach."

"Ignore him."

He said somewhat dejectedly, "Since he's already decided to disembark, let him go."

Vista clenched his fists as he looked at his dejected Pops.

Nothing is more devastating for Pops than the loss of his children.

Even Teach wasn't killed; he decided to leave on his own.

In any case, the Whitebeard Pirates are about to leave the New World.

However, before leaving the New World, Whitebeard still greeted all the countries and islands that originally belonged to him, asking them to obey the Beasts Pirates.

Although Ian was a bastard and a piece of trash, at least he had no interest in torturing civilians. On the contrary, he was very focused on the development of his territory.

A sea area in the New World.

"Let's leave the New World for now."

Red-Haired stretched, unlike the others who looked so bitter and resentful. "Hahaha, Ian is really domineering!"

"I wonder what this sea will look like the next time I come back?"

At this point, the World's Strongest began to leave the New World en masse.

With the NEO Marines having already left, the Beasts Pirates are now the only force in the New World that can rival them.

In Wano Country, Ian quickly received the news.

Morgans himself came excitedly to tell him the news, "Hahaha! Lord Ian! The Whitebeard Pirates, the Charlotte Family, Cross Guild! They have all left the New World!"

"The Whitebeard Pirates and the Charlotte Family went to the North Blue, while the Cross Guild and the NEO Marines headed to the West Blue!"

"You are now the undisputed King of the World!!"

"King of the World?"

Ian's lips curled into a smile. "That title isn't bad, but it's still a bit premature."

They've only driven the monsters out of the New World; they're far from completely conquering this sea area.

"Only after the World Government abandons its unrealistic fantasies will this title truly be fitting."

"Hahaha! That's something to look forward to!"

Morgans trembled with excitement, "Will what follows be a war that truly determines the fate of the world?"

Will the World Government still launch an attack?

Would we risk being bombed by Dyna Stone to start a war?

That's something to look forward to!

Who knows?

Ian's lips curled slightly.

He's still waiting for news.

Mary Geoise.

The Celestial Dragons' settlement, which had been bombed, was still under repair, but the white town now seemed rather deserted.

The Celestial Dragons were urgently evacuated, and the Celestial Dragons, of course, would not risk being bombed a second time to stay here. At this point, only the slaves who could not be taken away remained in the city.

Deep within Pangu City lies a special room adorned with a profusion of flowers.

It is called, Flower Chamber.

"Lord Im!"

The five old men who held the highest power in the world knelt before a tall, thin figure draped in a black robe.

"We remain determined to destroy Ian and his Beasts Pirates!"

Warcury, who exuded the air of the leader of the Gorosei, said respectfully,

"Even though Ian has scared away all the other pirates in the New World, and even though he has the Dyna Stone, this battle is inevitable!"

"Because the Dyna Stone won't disappear! Continuing to delay will only make Ian stronger!"

"We cannot afford to delay any longer, so we have decided to go all out to carry out the decapitation operation!"

"Because of the presence of the Dyna Stone, deploying a large army would only be a hindrance. We've decided to concentrate all our high-level combat power to crush the Beasts Pirates in one fell swoop!"

The tall, slender figure fell silent for a moment, then nodded slightly. "Mm agrees."

I'm guilty... I owe two chapters...
