Hachinosu Changes Hands, The World Is About to Go Berserk
One week later.
In the East Sea Goa Empire, the royal wedding ceremony was in full swing.
The two Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit and the 50 billion bounty transported by Shamrock have been delivered to Wang Shi.
He, Shanks, and Gunko did not immediately return to Holy Land Mary Geoise.
He even dragged his bratty younger brother along, Goa Imperial Capital for a few days until the auspicious time for the wedding, so they could attend the wedding of Wang Shi and Uta together.
The more Red-Haired Shanks suffered, the more excited Shamrock became.
He even wanted to assume the role of Uta's uncle and preside over the wedding of Wang Shi and Uta as the head of the family.
However, Red-Haired Shanks strongly objected.
Despite his extreme displeasure with the Wang Shi Red-Haired Shanks, insisted on attending the wedding as Uta's father.
Wang Shi, considering that Red-Haired Shanks hadn't revealed that Uta was his adopted daughter, actually toasted his dark-faced father-in-law.
Even Shamrock and Gunko received toasts from Wang Shi.
It's just a matter of social obligations, nothing to be ashamed of!
Moreover, after they left, the other Celestial Dragons guests were the main attraction for the Wang Shi.
While the Wang Shi wedding was taking place.
In the foreground waters of the New World.
The two Marine Admiral, Akainu Sakazuki and Kuzan, have been fighting fiercely on Punk Hazard for six days, but the battle shows no signs of ending.
The battle between the two caused the Punk Hazard to collapse and create an extreme natural environment of both ice and fire.
Caesar, who suffered an undeserved calamity, could only hide deep within the underground research facility, trembling with fear, and constantly pleading with Doflamingo for help.
But Doflamingo dared not interfere in the life-or-death battle between these two Catastrophe-class Marine Admiral.
He could only hope that Caesar survived and that the scientific apparatus producing the Artificial Devil Fruit substance SAD had not been destroyed.
Otherwise, Doflamingo would suffer a huge loss.
His grand plan to Artificial Devil Fruit might be interrupted.
The same time in the middle reaches of the New World seas.
The Cross Guild battles the returning Ochoku Pirates on Hachinosu!
Ochoku, over seventy years old, fought for six days and six nights, but was still no match for Bullet, the Heir to the Devil unleashed like a tiger from its cage. He was severely injured by Bullet, and his fate remains unknown.
Ochoku Pirates suffered heavy losses!
Pegasus, Devil Fruit User the Mythical Zoan Pegasus Fruit, and Strong, Devil Fruit User the Power-Power Fruit, were defeated by Shiryu of the Rain and World Destroyer.
Tyrant Kuma, carrying out his primary mission, personally captures Kurt Devil Fruit User.
Using the Paw-Paw Fruit's ability to launch and teleport, to counter Kurt's teleportation abilities within his field of vision.
Hai'ao Maolie of the Ochoku Pirates, a high-ranking officer who was once defeated by Spaden, has now been defeated by the Avalo Pizarro.
Crocodile, leading Jinbe, Vasco Shot Vasco Shot, and Iba Dongbo, all powerful pirates from Impel Down, suppressed the remaining members of the Ochoku Pirates and the affiliated pirates of the Hachinosu Fleet.
Seeing that Ochoku, the admiral of Hachinosu and the founder of the pirate world, was being brutally beaten by Bullet, some of the affiliated pirate crews realized that they were at a disadvantage and immediately surrendered.
A large number of Hachinosu pirates defected and became pirates of the Cross Guild.
After a fierce battle that lasted for many days, Hachinosu officially changed hands!
The Cross Guild defeated the Ochoku Pirates head-on, making their position as one of the Four Emperors even more undisputed!
After their great victory, the Cross Guild, along with the Ochoku Pirates and the Hachinosu Pirates they had annexed, launched a war against the Whitebeard Pirates, and seized back the dozen or so islands that Whitebeard had taken back during the war.
The Whitebeard Pirates were forced to retreat in disarray.
If it weren't for the Wang Shi's order to Fire Fist Ace, the son of the Pirate King, first.
The Cross Guild really wants to take advantage of this opportunity to take down the Whitebeard Pirates.
This completely transformed the Four Emperors system into a Three Emperors system.
After the Cross Guild absorbed the territories of the Red Hair Pirates and the Ochoku Pirates, along with a portion of Whitebeard's territory that it had previously acquired, it quickly became Four Emperors' pirate crews, second only to the Beasts Pirates in terms of territory.
The Whitebeard Pirates suffered from the encroachment and annexation of three parties, turning into a pseudo- Four Emperors pirate crew with even less territory than the former Red Hair Pirates.
After all, the title of the Four Emperors belongs to the original Whitebeard, not the current Fire Fist Ace.
Currently, neither the World Government, the Marine Headquarters, nor the other three Emperors acknowledge that Fire Fist Ace, the new captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, can be ranked alongside them as one of the Four Emperors.
The Whitebeard Pirates are currently based on Sphinx Island, the hometown of Whitebeard Newgate, and are struggling to maintain the flags of about a dozen nearby islands.
It's worth noting that at its peak, the Whitebeard Pirates protected as many as 59 islands.
The Big Mom Pirates expanded their territory from 34 islands to 43, having annexed nine of the Whitebeard Pirates' food-producing islands.
The Beasts Pirates, based in Wano Country, have also occupied 37 nearby islands through numerous large-scale expeditions. Now, they are aggressively annexing Whitebeard's territory, reaching 50 islands.
The Cross Guild annexed 19 islands belonging to the Red Hair Pirates, and together with the 28 islands it seized from the Ochoku Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates, its territory now encompasses a total of 47 islands.
The territories of the three emperors are now roughly the same size.
This is completely unlike the previous Whitebeard Pirates, the leader of the Four Emperors, whose vast difference far surpassed that of the Beasts Pirates and Big Mom Pirates more than twenty islands.
Now, the Cross Guild has quieted down after frantically taking over its territory.
Seeing that they had become the Beasts Pirates also did not continue to expand, waiting for Beast Kaido's bounty to exceed 5 billion Belly and become the new leader of the Four Emperors.
The Big Mom Pirates were very satisfied with their acquisition of nine resource-rich islands, as these were more valuable than ordinary islands.
Only the Whitebeard Pirates remained, licking their wounds and waiting for Fire Fist Ace to grow stronger.
They were already very fortunate that the Cross Guild and the other two emperors did not take the opportunity to attack them.
Lacking royal-level combat power, if they don't become stronger, they will ultimately just be easy prey.
···
Ten days later.
As the three-day wedding feast of Wang Shi and Uta drew to a close, Shamrock, Shanks, and Gunko had already left through a magical teleportation array after the first day of the feast ended.
Before leaving, Shamrock repeatedly instructed his nephew-in-law, Wang Shi, to make sure he reached the Holy Land Mary Geoise as soon as possible.
Wang Shi repeatedly promised that he would definitely go to the Holy Land to pay homage to the Five Elders.
This finally put Shamrock and Gunko at ease, allowing them to leave.
The decisive battle between the Fleet Admiral has finally come to a conclusion: Akainu Sakazuki successfully defeated Kuzan and was officially promoted to Fleet Admiral.
Shamrock and his comrades returned to the Holy Land, probably to witness the birth of a new Fleet Admiral.
"You want me to go to Mary Geoise? It's not that I don't want to, it's just that the timing isn't right!"
Wang Shi looked at a magnificent Celestial Dragons warship that had appeared at the Goa Royal Port and revealed a meaningful smile.
Dark King Rayleigh and his companions, along with the Revolutionary Army, who had been enjoying free food and drinks at the grand ceremony in Goa Imperial Capital for a day or two, also had to make their contribution.
"Beast Kaido want to become the top of the Four Emperors and cause his bounty to skyrocket?"
"As you wish!"
"Just repay me with your shoddy cotton then."
Wang Shi smiled slightly and, through someone, told Morgans the Big News- shattering news that Wano Country possessed the Ancient Weapon Pluton Battleship and the Red Laugh Tale, one of the four Road Poneglyphs of Laugh Road Poneglyph!
Tomorrow, the Big News about the new Fleet Admiral and the Pluton Battleship will completely ignite the world!
Let the New World descend into chaos!
