Silver Island.
"Two of the Three Division Commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates have shown up!!"
"Is that the Fire Fist Ace that's been making headlines lately?"
"Laughs, Spaden, it seems you've found your match!"
Aramaki was incredibly excited; he had thought that Jack the Drought was the only big fish.
Unexpectedly, the Whitebeard Pirates deployed even more large fish.
"Jack the Drought seems to have appeared in the back as well."
"This is very bad, Your Majesty."
"We can't handle two high-ranking officers from Four Emperors pirate crews."
With Van Augur's reminder, Capone Bege and Laffitte also spotted the Mammoth, and their expressions turned slightly panicked.
I thought I could only deal with guys like Jack the Drought and Buffalo Atmos.
Now, powerful figures like Vista the Flower Sword, Jozu the Diamond, and Fire Fist Ace have arrived.
They don't seem to be able to hold on.
"Don't panic, they're not all in cahoots. They might even start fighting amongst themselves."
Even with so many powerful figures arriving, Wang Shi remained calm, as long as the Four Emperors themselves didn't make a move.
"Jack the Drought only has one pirate ship; he shouldn't be foolish enough to clash with Whitebeard."
Capone Bege, cigar in mouth, quickly analyzed the situation of the battle.
Fortunately, even if they couldn't win, they could use Issho's Press-Press Fruit ability to retreat from the air.
Alternatively, activate the Exile Emperor's underwater evacuation function.
Do you know why Fire Fist Ace was able to become the Second Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates?
"Because the former Second Division Commander died at the hands of Beast Kaido."
Wang Shi looked at the squad leaders who had appeared, and among Izo the 16th Squad. This guy probably couldn't wait to start a war with the Beasts Pirates.
"Legend has it that Whitebeard Newgate, Big Mom Charlotte Linlin, Beast Kaido all came from the Rocks Pirates."
Unexpectedly, Beast Kaido actually killed the Second Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Most people in the Goa Empire were unaware of these maritime secrets.
"Never mind all that, let's pick our opponents."
"Since there's someone with a higher bounty, Jack the Drought is yours, Spaden."
Aramaki immediately abandoned the 1 billion bounty on Drought Jack the Drought and set its sights on Jozu the Diamond and Vista the Flower Sword.
Vista the Flower Sword, has a bounty of 1.25 billion Belly.
Jozu the Diamond, bounty 1.111 billion Belly.
(Vista's birthday is February 5th, and Jozu's Hiyori is the same as Zoro's, November 11th.)
The Three Division Commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates were not as ruthless as King the Conflagration, nor did they cause as many plague casualties Queen the Plague, so their bounties were a bit lower.
However, the reward money is not necessarily related to the skill level.
The degree of harm posed to World Government is the most important criterion for determining the bounty.
Jozu the Diamond was able to fight against Aokiji and Kuzan, and even injured Aokiji and Crocodile with his high-speed collision, demonstrating his considerable strength.
Meanwhile, Vista the Flower Sword, is also capable of fighting against the World's Greatest Swordsman, Hawkeye Mihawk, so his strength should not be underestimated.
Vista and Mihawk, these two 'legendary binding kings'.
With each version update, its strength seems to grow ever stronger.
In the future, if Hawkeye Mihawk, the World's Greatest Swordsman, were to be paired with Red-Haired Shanks, his bounty would skyrocket to 3.59 billion Belly.
It's ridiculous that he's even higher than Buggy the Clown and Straw Hat Luffy, the two new Four Emperors.

"I want to fight Vista, the Vista the Flower Sword!"
Aramaki's eyes burned with fervor, and he roared in his heart, "The Duke's throne, I'm coming for you!"
Zoro also wanted to fight Vista the Flower Sword, the famous swordsman, but he knew that he was probably no match for Vista the Flower Sword at the moment.
"Aramaki, let me try out this Two-Sword Style swordsman."
He had been smiling nonchalantly, but suddenly became serious and asked, wanting to know how much his swordsmanship differed from that of Vista, the Vista the Flower Sword.
"Hey~~, you want to steal my rival??"
Aramaki looked at Yi Xiao with surprise, but then he saw Yi Xiao's serious expression.
"Okay, okay, I'll play Jozu the Diamond."
Aramaki reluctantly accepted Ichisho's rare request, but Jozu the Diamond was also a good option; defeating him would allow him to be promoted to Imperial Duke.
Piercing the diamond is quite a challenge.
Zoro wanted to witness Vista the Flower Sword's powerful swordsmanship and also wanted to know how hard diamonds were.
Unfortunately, he didn't get a chance with either of these two formidable rivals.
He's not even qualified to fight those squad leaders now; he can only pick on the subordinate captains to fight.
Even for a subordinate captain, it would likely be extremely difficult, with the possibility of death in battle.
"Your Majesty, leave the Jack the Drought to me!"
Spaden clenched his fists. He wasn't confident he could defeat Jack the Drought, but he wouldn't back down.
He had no desire to be promoted to Duke; he only wanted to prove his abilities.
"Can."
"If you can fight Jack the Drought and bring back a drop of his blood, I will grant you the title of Duke."
Wang Shi spoke softly, lowering Wang Shi standards slightly for the sake of the title of Three Dukes, making it unnecessary for Spaden to defeat Jack the Drought.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Spaden's tiger eyes lit up. Defeating Jack the Drought would be difficult, but Spaden had confidence in winning the battle and obtaining his blood.
He's going all out this time.
"I hope that after today, the One Emperor and Three Marquesses will become One Emperor and Three Dukes."
"My lords, do not disappoint me."
Wang Shi walked to the shore, looked at the mighty Whitebeard fleet and the Mammoth, and revealed a serious expression.
"I will not disappoint Your Majesty."
Aramaki, Yi Xiao, Spaden all became very serious.
"As for you, do what you can and live well."
Wang Shi addressed the other Baron solemnly, saying that this battle would be extremely dangerous for these Viscount and Baron.
One wrong move and you could really die in battle.
"Rest assured, Your Majesty. If we truly stop here, it only proves that we are nothing special."
Zoro's eyes were filled with longing, and his blood seemed to boil.
Having faced off against the Four Emperors, he has taken another step forward on his path to becoming the World's Greatest Swordsman.
"Fate will select the true protagonists."
Van Augur spoke calmly, "Today is the day I am promoted to Viscount."
"That's Four Emperors pirate crew! This is so exciting!"
The silver-haired Saka, Eric, Bartolomeo, Capone Bege, Laffitte, Burgess, El Drago, and Dezaya —all these Baron —were filled with fighting spirit.
His eyes were filled with a desire for fame.
It was Wang Shi who brought them to this highest stage, allowing them to fully demonstrate their strength.
On the sea.
"Why don't we take down this arrogant Jack first!"
Seeing that the Mammoth was accelerating forward, intending to land on Silver Island before Whitebeard's fleet could reach it.
Fire Fist Ace's eyes were filled with the desire to fight. He had been to Wano Country and knew the terrible situation there. He had not forgotten his promise to Otama and Yamato.
He proposed the idea of attacking the Beasts Pirates to Whitebeard more than once, but was rejected by Whitebeard time and time again.
Upon hearing Ace's words, Izo's eyes lit up, and he stared intently at Vista.
The person in charge of this operation was the more composed Vista, not Jozu.
"The guys on the island seem to be even more impatient than we are..."
"Oh no! Get out of the way!"
Vista the Flower Sword was about to reply, he noticed the commotion on the island.
As a result, a terrifying sword aura, carrying a ferocious Conqueror's Haki, roared in.
The Emperor of Exile actually made the first move!!
"This is my gift to you..."
"Those who cannot endure this have no right to see me!"
