The violent Conqueror's Haki clashed in the sky, and visible black lightning erupted.
The sky seemed to darken in that instant.
On the island below, the person who had just regained consciousness fell into a coma again.
" Kaido of the Beasts!"
Many people below recognized Kaido, and their expressions turned solemn.
What's this guy doing here?
Are they here to start a war?
Those below had differing thoughts, but the two in the sky both wore wild laughter.
Their pupils seemed to be glowing red.
It was just a greeting.
" Kaido, what are you doing here?"
With both hands gripping the knife hilt, Charlotte Linlin grinned and asked.
"This isn't a suitable topic to discuss, Linlin!"
Kaido, abruptly retracted his spiked club, then leaned back sharply, his entire body plummeting downwards at an increasingly rapid pace.
Charlotte Linlin, standing atop the thunderclouds, saw Kaido's action and a hint of confusion flashed in her eyes.
Looks like this guy really has something to do.
Otherwise, they would definitely fight first, instead of just giving a heads-up and then backing down.
The people on Whole Cake Island watched as Kaido's towering figure plummeted from the sky and crashed to the ground.
The entire Whole Cake Island seemed to tremble from the impact.
Of course, it could also be a misperception caused by people who are close to Kaido.
Just as everyone was stunned, Charlotte Linlin's loud voice rang out.
"The banquet is about to begin."
Charlotte Linlin landed on the ground, tracing an arc as she stepped on the thunderclouds.
As soon as she gave the order, the others immediately got to work.
Kaido got up from the crater he had created, stretched his neck, and then returned to the castle on Whole Cake Island with Charlotte Linlin.
The others, witnessing this scene, wondered about Kaido's purpose in coming.
Inside the castle, Kaido sat on the ground, while Charlotte Linlin sat on her castle throne.
The sake was served first, Kaido, without any hesitation, grabbed it and poured it into his mouth.
Charlotte Linlin wasn't in a hurry to ask any questions; she just watched Kaido drink.
"Speaking of which, you went to war with that Shanks guy before."
Kaido was pouring wine into his mouth, suddenly spoke, and his words made Charlotte Linlin's face darken.
"You brat, you're still as annoying as ever."
Charlotte Linlin's tone was unfriendly.
The main problem is that they didn't win the war against Shanks.
Although she didn't lose, she felt that her status was higher than Shanks', and not winning meant she had lost.
"So, you came here to mock me?"
Charlotte Linlin's tone grew increasingly hostile, as if she were about to resort to violence at the slightest provocation.
Normally, Kaido wouldn't refuse a fight, but he'll let it slide this time.
Kaido put down his drink and looked at Charlotte Linlin.
" The Flame Demon has entered the New World; you should have received the message from Dressrosa."
Charlotte Linlin, whose face was already showing anger, was taken aback upon hearing this.
"Oh my god, this news has already reached here."
Charlotte Linlin laughed loudly, but her laughter stopped abruptly.
"So, you came here for this guy? But what are you doing here? Or, Kaido, are you planning to deal with him?"
Charlotte Linlin bombarded Kaido with a series of questions, but he didn't interrupt her until Charlotte finished asking them and stopped talking. Only then did Kaido throw his head back and laugh.
" Doflamingo wanted me to intervene before, but I'm not stupid enough to do that attack on the Red Line."
Kaido's words made Charlotte Linlin's expression turn serious.
Yes, that strike.
Not to mention Kaido, even she was taken aback by that attack.
Later, images of video Den Den Den Mushi) were also leaked, and Charlotte Linlin naturally had access to these items.
A single strike nearly cleaved Red Line thousands of meters above the sea; such power is truly astonishing.
What exactly are you trying to say?
Charlotte Linlin frowned.
"He's closer to you than he is to me, Linlin."
"So, let's join forces."
Kaido looked at Charlotte Linlin, awaiting her answer.
Join forces?
Charlotte Linlin clearly didn't expect Kaido to say that, and frowned as she looked at Kaido.
"You're going to deal with him?"
"It's not that I want to deal with him, but he's entered New World and will eventually clash with us."
Kaido shook his head.
A guy of Dunn's caliber is bound to cause a huge stir in the New World.
At that point, it won't be something you can just avoid.
Should we avoid them before Dunn arrives?
How could they possibly do something like that!
Seeing Charlotte Linlin deep in thought, Kaido didn't urge her and continued to pour her wine.
"Working with a brat like you is less desirable than working with that Dunn."
Charlotte Linlin suddenly said.
Kaido was taken aback, then couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Still so naive, Linlin. You haven't forgotten, have you? That guy is Pirate Hunter."
"Moreover, if you can humble yourself before him, it might actually be possible."
Kaido's words clearly displeased Charlotte Linlin, but there was indeed a point to be Kaido.
Neither she nor Kaido had any intention of being inferior to anyone else.
This idea disappeared after the fall of Rocks.
"Speaking of which, he entered the Totto Land after leaving Dressrosa, Linlin."
Kaido increased his bets again.
Even if you say that, I won't make a decision easily.
When Charlotte Linlin's Hunger Pangs aren't acting up, her mind isn't muddled.
Given the current unclear situation, are they really going to join forces with Kaido?
Kaido had clearly anticipated Charlotte Linlin's answer and did not continue speaking.
The banquet began and was quite lively.
After all, it was to entertain another king of the sea.
Dunn never expected Kaido to actively seek out Charlotte Linlin to join forces against him.
Even if he knew, Dunn wouldn't really care.
After all, Kaido and his companion are different from the World Government.
Before launching a full-scale attack on the World Government, Dunn had to consider the subsequent impact on the oceans.
Although these influences won't do him any good.
But Dunn also didn't want to see so many people die because of his decision.
But Charlotte Linlin and Kaido are pirates.
While there may be innocent people among those whose homes are destroyed, most will not be wrongly accused.
Of course, Dunn wasn't thinking about that right now, because the two men on the ship were doing their best to impress.
Boa Hancock and Baby 5.
These two people were with him at all times.
" Boa Hancock, you don't need to do these things."
Watching Boa Hancock and Baby5 each serving her, Robin watched from a distance with a look of amusement on her face.
Robin, didn't you say you were here first?
"Lord Dunn, this is all I should do."
The Empress had never worked as a maid, so her professional skills were clearly several levels below Baby5's.
But she was sincere.
The Baby5 is similar.
Seeing the laughter from afar, he felt he should be at the bottom of the ship, not on the deck.
