None of the Four Emperors were willing to submit to the others, and they lined up in a row. Among the Marine Admiral, Senga was clearly in charge, with the other three standing behind him.
Senga's gaze swept over the four of them, finally settling on Kaido.
"Kaido, how is Wano Country doing now?"
Kaido was taken aback, and the others all looked at him. It seemed like there was some connection between the two.
Red-Haired couldn't help but recall what Senga had said on Windmill Island—that he had spared Kaido's life. Now that Senga mentioned it, he couldn't help but wonder if Kaido was a traitor!
Kaido snorted and said irritably,
"I appointed Jin as the Shogun of Wano Country; how well he governs is his business!"
Jin quickly stepped forward and spoke.
"Admiral Purple Kirin, I have lifted Wano Country's isolationist policy, and the laborers within the country have been disbanded!"
Senga nodded in satisfaction and gave a compliment.
"Not bad, I didn't realize you were so reliable."
The more Red-Haired listened, the more uneasy he felt. He had a feeling that King was almost becoming Senga's underling!
The Big Mom interrupted her directly,
"Enough! How long are you going to keep talking? Isn't this war?!"
Senga had long disliked the Big Mom. He narrowed his Rinnegan and then released the Banshō Ten'in.
The Big Mom was still grinning when Senga pulled her over. It was her first time facing the Banshō Ten'in, and she had no idea how to deal with it.
Fortunately, Whitebeard and Red-Haired were reliable teammates. They charged at Big Mom almost simultaneously, and Whitebeard showed no mercy, pressing Big Mom's head down from the air and slamming her into the ice.
Kaido, standing behind, twitched at the corner of his mouth. He stood there and coughed twice, pretending to be indifferent.
The Big Mom pulled her head out of the ice, spitting out large amounts of ice shards, and glared angrily at the Whitebeard.
"Newgate! Do you want to kill me?!"
The Whitebeard didn't even glance at her, casually tossing out a remark.
"Do you want him to drag you over and just settle things with you?"
At this point, Red-Haired stepped in and acted as a peacemaker.
"Alright, dealing with Purple Kirin is the priority!"
Upon hearing that Red-Haired was going to kill him, Senga burst out laughing.
"You're far too confident."
After saying that, Senga had a thought, and a full set of Susanoo Armor covered his body. His figure disappeared from the spot in an instant, and the next second he appeared in front of Red-Haired.
To the astonishment of the Red-Haired, Senga kicked him in the chest.
Red-Haired's body shot towards a pirate ship behind him like a bullet, smashing the ship to pieces.
Senga's left eye transformed into a bolt of purple lightning, and black thunderclouds appeared in the sky. Then, a purple ferocious beast descended from the sky and crashed into the wreckage of the ship where the Red-Haired had fallen.
"Five Hundred Million Volts - Purple Kirin!"
A deafening thunderclap resounded, and the ice surface where the Red-Haired stood completely melted, gushing out a massive amount of seawater.
Whitebeard's expression darkened; he could no longer sense Red-Haired's presence.
Seeing what happened to the Red-Haired, the Big Mom dared not act recklessly anymore and quickly got up from the ground.
However, as soon as she stood up, Akainu rushed over and unleashed a Great Eruption.
The Big Mom hurriedly dodged, but the lava still ignited the hem of her skirt, almost causing her to be exposed.
After extinguishing the flames on her body, she roared in anger, channeling all the energy of Zeus and Prometheus into Napoleon, and then slashed down fiercely at Akainu.
"The Radiant Sword!"
Akainu then elementalized his body, transforming it into two clumps of magma that dispersed, thus dodging Big Mom's furious attack.
With the battle having progressed to this point, Kaido had no choice but to intervene, even if he was unwilling. He gripped his spiked club and roared...
"Men! Charge!"
After shouting this, Kaido led the charge, with King and the others following closely behind, wanting to lend their leader a hand.
However, the navy personnel at headquarters were not to be trifled with; they immediately jumped down from the platform and joined the battle.
Whether they are from the navy or pirates, none of those who participate in this war are weak.
In an instant, a series of booming sounds erupted on the ice in front of Marineford, as powerful Taijutsu and a wide variety of Eight Gates Devil Fruit ability dazzled the viewers of the live broadcast.
With Senga's presence, all Shichibukai were giving it their all, with Empress Hancock being the most dedicated.
The number of pirates she petrified alone could pile up into a mountain.
Yamato wielded her spikeless spiked club, striking almost one enemy after another, but she deliberately avoided the Beasts Pirates and focused her attacks on the Big Mom Pirates.
Finally, someone couldn't stand it anymore. A tall figure emerged from the Big Mom Pirates, his arm transforming into a dough-like substance, which he swung towards Yamato.
Yamato was in the middle of a rampage when she wasn't paying attention and got tangled around the waist by the dough. She was stunned for a moment, then was thrown up and slammed heavily onto the ice.
Yamato sat on the ground, holding his head, and groaned.
"Damn it! That hurts, you bastard!"
A tall figure appeared in front of Yamato; it was Gion, and blood was still dripping from the Kompira in her hand.
Yamato seeing Gion, Yamato's expression immediately turned aggrieved, and she called out, "Gion!"
Gion crouched down and affectionately patted Yamato's head, speaking softly.
"Yamato, this is war, there's no room for carelessness!"
Yamato nodded obediently, then got up from the ground and glared angrily at the person who had thrown her.
Following Gion 'Yamato gaze, Gion saw a tall man wearing a thick scarf.
"It was him?"
Upon hearing this Yamato quickly pressed for an answer.
"Gion, who is that guy?"
"He is Charlotte Katakuri, the leader of the Three Sweet Commanders of the Big Mom Pirates."
"So he's also that ugly woman's child?"
"Yes, he is the Big Mom's second son."
"Hmph, then I'll definitely teach him a lesson!"
"Eh? Yamato, you..."
Gion reached out to stop Yamato from acting rashly, but Yamato, the hothead, charged forward with a spiked club, and even entered Zoan transformation state along the way.
Katakuri snorted and brandished his trident, known as the Earth Dragon, as he charged towards Yamato.
Yamato's strength is among the top tier of the Shichibukai, but Katakuri is clearly superior and has far Yamato.
So Yamato was thwarted again. She swung her stick at Katakuri, but he anticipated it with his Observation Haki, transforming his body into a mochi ball to dodge Yamato's attack, and then punched her in the Yamato.
So Yamato had just charged forward, was once again driven back to Gion's side.
Big Mom and Kaido noticed the fight between the two, and Big Mom immediately gave Kaido a mocking smile.
"Mama, Kaido, it seems my child is still the better choice!"
