Beasts Kaido Breaks Down! Stay Away from Me!!

Storm snapped his fingers, Beasts Kaido was released from Void Great Prison.

And this Pirate Emperor was bound by pure white clay chains.

After Storm's [Clay Fruit] was upgraded to Nine-Star, he gave the entire Void Great Prison a "torture equipment update," equipping every prisoner with new "torture equipment."

The chains currently binding Beasts Kaido are made of sturdy clay created by the Nine-Star [Clay Fruit].

Aside from being unable to suppress Devil Fruit abilities, these chains are no less sturdy than Seastone.

Beasts Kaido has been imprisoned in the Void Great Prison for some time, and Vegapunk forcibly extracted a lot of his Lineage Factor. He is currently in a very low state, and his voice is no longer as powerful as it used to be.

"White Dragon Emperor... you bastard..."

Storm merely glanced at Beasts Kaido, having no intention of arguing with this prisoner.

He extended his right hand, and the power of the [Restoration Ring] was released, enveloping Beasts Kaido.

Faced with this top-tier healing-type Devil Fruit, Beasts Kaido's injuries from being beaten by Storm quickly healed, and his aura also continuously increased.

Beasts Kaido, sensing the restoration of his strength, looked at the White Dragon Emperor with surprise and uncertainty.

He had just thought that the White Dragon Emperor released him to kill him, just like he killed that old woman Linlin.

But instead of attacking him, the White Dragon Emperor healed him?

Beasts Kaido a moment, and only asked tentatively.

"White Dragon Emperor, are you finally planning to join forces with me?"

"It seems he has recovered."

Storm did not answer Beasts Kaido's question, but simply nodded calmly, then looked at Vegapunk beside him.

"Doctor, it's your turn."

"PhD?"

Beasts Kaido was startled, and his eyes darted around, immediately spotting the somewhat strange Vegapunk.

"It's you! Old man! Huh? Where's your 'World's Greatest Brain'? How come it's turned into half an apple? You—"

Beasts Kaido's next words were cut off by the oversized syringe in Vegapunk's hand.

Vegapunk skillfully drew a vial of blood from Beasts Kaido, and then used a special machine to check the concentration of the Lineage Factor contained in the vial.

"Beasts Kaido's Lineage Factor purity has returned to its peak."

Vegapunk gave a brief report, then looked at Storm in surprise.

"How did you do that? The Clay- Clay Fruit has such amazing abilities?"

It's not the [Clay Fruit], but the [Restoration Fruit].

However, Storm still didn't make this clear to Vegapunk; he simply pointed at Beasts Kaido.

"Then what are you waiting for, Doctor? Let's do it!"

Beasts Kaido stared wide-eyed at Vegapunk, preparing to struggle and resist.

But just then, a figure suddenly appeared beside them.

A crystal-clear bubble flew from his hand, piercing through an invisible layer of air and directly through Beasts Kaido's body.

Joan's "bubbles" have already "stolen" Beasts Kaido's strength!

"No..."

Beasts Kaido realized that his resistance had been temporarily eliminated, and couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.

Vegapunk continued collecting the Lineage Factor of Beasts Kaido.

After a series of operations were completed.

Vegapunk, having "reaped a bountiful harvest," looked at Storm with satisfaction.

"The amount of Lineage Factor collected this time is not only enough to create another [Artificial Azure Dragon Fruit], but it can also serve as preliminary research material for [Green Blood]!"

"Very good."

Storm nodded happily.

He looked at Beasts Kaido, who was once again weakened.

Beasts Kaido's "weakness" just now was because Joan's [Bubble Fruit] temporarily stole his power.

But now, he is truly "weak" because a large amount of his Lineage Factor have been extracted!

Even the Pirate Emperor, Beasts Kaido, who ate the Mythical Zoan Azure Dragon Fruit, still felt weak after having a large amount of his Lineage Factor extracted.

Storm extended his right hand again, unleashing the power of the [Restoration Fruit].

Beasts Kaido, who had just appeared very weak, quickly recovered thanks to the miraculous power of the [Restoration Fruit], until he was back to his peak condition.

Beasts Kaido:?

Storm didn't even glance at the bewildered Pirate Emperor, but instead stared at Vegapunk was equally puzzled.

"Doctor, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and draw blood from Beasts Kaido!"

"..."

What do you need so many [Azure Dragon Fruit] Lineage Factor for?

Vegapunk really wanted to ask Storm that question.

Isn't this just an ordinary Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit?

However, due to Storm's previous generous investments...

Vegapunk sighed inwardly, but still stepped forward and began collecting Beasts Kaido's Lineage Factor once more.

Once... twice... three times...

Beasts Kaido's strong psychological defenses gradually crumbled under the emotionless, almost mechanical gathering activities of Storm and Vegapunk.

As Storm extended his right hand once more, preparing to unleash his power.

Beasts Kaido roared in terror and despair.

"Don't come near me, ahhhhhh--"

Above the Sky Garden.

With Nami's comfort, Yamato's emotions gradually returned to Yamato, and he suddenly tilted his head in confusion.

"Why do I think I heard Beasts Kaido's voice?"

At dusk, in the Sky Garden.

Apart from Ace and other members who were away on a voyage, all the members of the Storm Pirates were present at the banquet.

As the protagonist of this Welcome Banquet, Yamato stood in front of everyone and introduced himself in a generous and open manner.

"Hello everyone, I'm Yamato. Nice to meet you all."

After Yamato finished introducing himself, the other members looked at the new member and introduced themselves as well.

After everyone finished introducing themselves, Storm clapped his hands lightly, drawing everyone's attention.

"Yamato is from Wano Country. Because of her past experiences, her understanding of the world and the sea is still rather limited. Please take good care of this silly girl in the days to come."

Yamato hearing this, Yamato glared angrily at Storm, "Captain! I'm not an idiot!"

"That sounds like something only an idiot would say," Storm said, curling his lip.

The rest of the crew watched with great interest the "friendly interaction" between the Captain and the newcomer.

To be honest...

The Storm Pirates have quite a few "monsters," and even more "problem children."

But this seems to be the first time a creature called "idiot" has appeared.

"Captain!"

Yamato insisted.

"I no longer want to be the new Kozuki Oden!"

"Real?"

Storm observed Yamato's expression carefully for a while, then shrugged.

"Whatever you want..."

"By the way, did Nami mention the 'Grand Fleet' to you?"

"Nami already told me!"

Yamato nimbly dropped the topic of Kozuki Oden; she didn't want to talk about that good-for-nothing anymore.

"But Captain, can I really become a pirate Captain?"

"If we're only talking about 'strength,' you absolutely qualify to be a pirate Captain."

Storm first nodded, then shook his head.

"However, in other respects, you are still lacking in many abilities. It would be best if you studied for a period of time first."

"Nami also has the mission of learning meteorology from the meteorologist on the small Sky Island of Visalia. While she is learning, you can also be more active in Totto Land and broaden your horizons."

The story of Nami and the small Sky Island of Visalia.

Storm had planned this all along.

However, his previous idea was to send Nami to the small Sky Island.

But later, he entered the New World and conquered Whole Cake Island, and his original plans changed.

Go to school at the Paradise?

Why not hire a private tutor?

With the Gild Tesoro's "money power," Vegapunk's "friendship card," and Storm's "friendly invitation," all these factors combined to create a powerful synergy.

The meteorology PhDs from the tiny Sky Island of Visalia have already arrived in Whole Cake Island.

After all, for these meteorologists, the meteorological environment of the New World was a very worthwhile topic to study.

Nami had long since become an unofficial member of the small Sky Island of Visalia.

The meteorologists on the small Sky Island, led by Dr. Hareda, warmly welcomed Nami's "joining".

Aside from "off-court factors" such as Storm.

Nami's natural talent, as well as her Cloud- Cloud Fruit, greatly attracted Dr. Hareda and his group.

Recently...

Nami has been studying meteorology under Dr. Hareda and his colleagues.

This is also a major reason why Storm left Yamato in Nami's care.

Nami not only has the right background, but also plenty of time.

After hearing Storm's words, Yamato confused.

Actually, she also went to the small Sky Island of Visalia with Nami today.

However, the content of Dr. Hareda's lectures was like a foreign language to Yamato.

Although they are just ordinary words, when put together, Yamato can't understand them at all.

Now that he had received Storm's instructions, Yamato breathed a sigh of relief.

She was genuinely worried that Storm would throw her onto a small, Sky Island and force her to learn some kind of meteorology.

Study?

Learn my ass!

Storm noticed the relaxed expression on Yamato's face and couldn't help but offer a reminder.

"When sailing on the high seas, whether it's the Four Seas or the Grand Line, having some meteorological knowledge is very helpful."

"Um!"

Yamato nodded, then suddenly looked at Nami.

"However, if I encounter any problems while sailing the high seas in the future, can't I just contact Nami directly?"

Do you think you can solve all your navigation problems instantly by making a phone call?

That's what Storm was going to say.

But then he suddenly remembered another legendary figure.

The future Second Division Commander of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet, the leader of the Barto Club, the cannibal Bartolomeo.

Bartolomeo's journey from Loguetown in the East Blue to the New World relied mainly on the off-field help of his grandmother back in his hometown in the East Blue!

It's absolutely outrageous that his grandmother opened the door for someone so outrageous.

This is outrageous!

Storm opened his mouth, then waved his hand weakly.

"Fine, whatever makes you happy... If you want to form a pirate crew, have you thought about the name and flag?"

Yamato looked at the clay walls that stood like flags on the ground of the Sky Garden and shook his head.

"Not yet! But I'll try my best to think about it!"

Beasts Kaido a pirate crew called the "Beasts Pirates"...

Yamato quickly put her little brain to work.

Should my pirate crew be named "Thousand Beasts" or "Ten Thousand Beasts"?

Or perhaps "mythical beasts" or "monsters"?

This is such a headache!

The Welcome Banquet continued, and the other members gradually gained a deeper understanding of Yamato.

The general consensus is that everyone agrees on this point.

Yamato is a good girl!

As for being called an "idiot" or something...

No one has figured it out yet.

The Welcome Banquet was coming to an end.

Luo took the initiative to seek out Storm.

"Captain, I have recently discovered the exact location of 'Zunesha'."

Compared to Kid and Ace, who actively went out to embark on seafaring adventures.

Luo chose to stay in the New World.

Part of the reason lies with his Heart Pirates' navigator, Bepo.

Bepo is a member of the Kingdom of Zou, but unfortunately he left his hometown at a very young age and has always dreamed of returning home.

This is also why Bepo painstakingly studied navigation.

The Heart Pirates have now entered the New World.

Luo had been quietly gathering information about Zunesha, and now he had finally found Zunesha's exact location.

"Then let's go find Zunesha!"

"Storm said casually."

"Would you like me to come with you? There's a 'treasure' in the Kingdom of Zou that's really appealing to me."

The third Road Poneglyph is located in the Kingdom of Zou on Zunesha's back!

First update.

There was still some in the early morning.

It might be late.
