New World, Hachinosu, Hachinosu.
"Hahaha! Those idiots, Imu and the Five Elders, actually let the World Alliance expand! They're courting death!!"
Eight enormous dragon heads coiled menacingly, some emanating dark matter, others emitting a vibrating fluorescence...
The dragon head in the middle is laughing wildly, revealing a mouthful of dragon teeth, several of which are missing.
The Mythical Zoan Yamata no Orochi Fruit ability actually includes eight lives and additional Mythical Zoan abilities.
Kurozumi Orochi's poor performance was simply due to his own incompetence.
Venom and water control are both fundamental elemental abilities of Yamata no Orochi.
Blackbeard Teach's Yamata no Orochi ability can even spit out a powerful Ama no Murakumo.
When combined with the Dark-Dark Fruit's power, it becomes completely the opposite of Kizaru's golden Ama no Murakumo, pitch black and swirling with dark Flame Clouds.
When combined with the Tremor-Tremor Fruit's power, it also has remarkable effects.
Now, Blackbeard Teach, Devil Fruit User, has his strength undergo another qualitative change due to the combined effects of his three abilities, making him even stronger.

"Wang Shi is treating Imu and the Five Elders like dogs."
"However, this also buys us time. We must figure out the Pluton Battleship's energy problem as soon as possible!"
"Otherwise, this would be a piece of junk!"
Crocodile, puffing on his cigar, wore a mocking smile. He hadn't expected that Wang Shi would fool those old monsters from the World Government so easily.
"I heard that the Five Elders have gifted another Celestial Dragons beauty to His Majesty Wang Shi."
The Avalo Pizarro Avalo Pizarro ate and drank heartily, a hint of envy in his eyes.
To be honest, he also wanted to experience what it was like to be Celestial Dragons.
"Those two bastards, Charlotte Linlin and Bullet, are they even capable of anything?!"
World Destroyer World was extremely annoyed; he really wanted to test the power of the Pluton Cannon.
Even if it can't be increased a hundredfold, even if it's increased tenfold, it's still a qualitative leap!
That would definitely unleash a world-destroying power.
"Charlotte Linlin has gone to harvest more souls. Once the Pluton Battleship is transformed into a truly conscious Homies, she should be able to find out the energy that Pluton needs."
"Even if Bullet can merge with the Pluton Battleship, it's just a fusion of the shell; it doesn't have the energy to fire."
"Once we've settled things with the Pluton Battleship, we need to deal with Big Mom properly; we can't let her hold us back."
The Blackbeard Pirates and the executives of the Cross Guild were all talking freely.
The Big Mom Pirates' fleet is currently at Hachinosu port and is not mixed up with the Black Ten Alliance pirates on Skull Castle.
This hardworking Big Mom is harvesting the souls of the prisoners captured by the Three Emperor Alliance.
Most of these cannon fodder are Beasts Pirates and ninja samurai from Wano Country; they are all to be transformed into the soul power of the Pluton Battleship.
"Gecko Moria is coming over; he'll be a member of the Cross Guild from now on."
Crocodile chuckled softly. Besides Gecko Moria, he also maintained contact with Doflamingo and Hawkeye Mihawk.
They could bring those two Shichibukai into the Cross Guild's camp at any time.
"Damn it! Why is everyone joining the Cross Guild? Our Blackbeard Pirates need to expand too!"
Blackbeard Teach was somewhat dissatisfied; their pirate crew was still too small.
"What's ours is yours, what's the rush!"
"Or you could recruit a few of the Shinuchi warriors of the beasts from among those prisoners."
Crocodile flicked his cigarette ash, his eyes full of amusement.
"If Wang Shi handles those Beasts Pirates officers well, perhaps you could ask him about it."
"Also, the two division commanders captured by the Whitebeard Pirates should have been tamed by now. You can ask them if you want."
Crocodile continued, saying that his Cross Guild had already reserved those Shichibukai.
"Okay!"
"We also need to quickly divide up the Beasts Pirates' territory."
"We can't let the Whitebeard Pirates' territory go either."
"I heard that the Whitebeard Pirates, led by Fire Fist Ace, have apparently abandoned Sphinx Island."
Blackbeard Teach grinned, thinking that if Ace, Roger's son, knew about the 6th Division Commander Blamenco and the 7th Division Commander Rakuyo, he would join the Blackbeard Pirates like the Dielkaban Brothers.
I wonder if I'll be so angry I'll die!
"Wang Shi is establishing World Alliance by carving out his territory in the East Blue, we too will dominate the New World!"
"Wang Shi has already tricked the World Government into attacking us, so we just need to put on an act with Wang Shi and buy some time."
Crocodile began mobilizing his other officers to launch a full-scale conquest of the New World.
They took over the territories of the Beasts Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates.
From now on, their Three Emperor Alliance will dominate the New World!
···
On the other hand, Wang Shi wanted to find something for Imu and the Five Elders to do.
He directly released the message from the Underworld that Fire Fist Ace was going to find Fist Garp and Dark King Rayleigh, and to train and become stronger with his sworn brother Straw Hat Luffy.
When this news reached the Whitebeard Pirates' ship, Marco the Phoenix and Vista the Flower Sword also felt that this 'fake news' was very good.
They really did take Fire Fist Ace with them, leave the New World, and enter the Grand Line to find Straw Hat Luffy.
Even the Whitey Bay called specifically to encourage them to go find Garp and Rayleigh.
Ace definitely needs a good teacher.
It just so happens that Fist Garp, is Ace's grandfather, Dark King Rayleigh, was Roger's right-hand man.
This is simply the best mentor.
Wang Shi also had Morgans spread the rumor that Fire Fist Ace, Revolutionary Army Chief of Staff Sabo, Straw Hat Luffy were sworn brothers.
Sun God Nika Straw Hat Luffy, Pirate King's son Fire Fist Ace, and Revolutionary Army's future leader and chief strategist Sabo —this is the strongest combination to overthrow the World Government in the future.
This news certainly made Imu and the Five Elders take it seriously.
Since they can't find any news about Straw Hat Luffy, Garp, and Pluton, they'll keep an eye on Fire Fist Ace is also searching for Straw Hat Luffy.
They need to follow the trail of Fire Fist Ace to find the Sun God Nika.
When Leader of the Revolutionary Army Dragon learned of this news, he immediately tried to contact Fist Garp and the Whitebeard Pirates to ensure their secrecy and safety.
Therefore, the Revolutionary Army began to confront the World Government, helping to cover up and erase the Whitebeard Pirates' voyages.
When Sabo saw the numerous photos and information about Fire Fist Ace and Straw Hat Luffy, he finally regained his memory amidst screams.
He agreed to join the Revolutionary Army in helping the Whitebeard Pirates, and he also agreed to personally board the Whitebeard Pirates' ship to meet Ace.
The three little ones will soon meet, with the help of the Revolutionary Army.
Perhaps, under the tutelage of Fist Garp and Dark King Rayleigh, the three little ones will grow stronger at an unimaginable speed.
The World Government was equally busy, expanding its Immortal Corps, urging Wang Shi to conquer the Three Emperor Alliance, and gathering intelligence on the Sun God Nika.
The whole world has entered a strange, race-against-time situation, like the calm before the storm.
