The New World.
Hive Island.
The Shirahoshi is located outside the Calm Belt formed by Sea Kings.
On a small One Piece ship.
Lafitte was quietly waiting for the Demon King Pirates to arrive.
Behind him were five Celestial Dragons were tied up.
He claimed to have come to surrender, but in reality, he was there to test the waters.
In the original timeline, Blackbeard should have used Fire Fist Ace as a pledge of allegiance to become Shichibukai.
Unexpectedly, after Ye Zhuo appeared, he used this as a pretense of loyalty.
At the moment.
Blackbeard betrayed the Whitebeard Pirates and began a frenzied hunt for Devil Fruit on the high seas.
He also gathered a group of companions, but did not become Shichibukai as originally planned.
I have no idea what they're planning.
"Has it not appeared yet?"
Lafitte smiled and turned to leave.
Bringing Celestial Dragons here is not safe; what if a Marine Admiral personally intervenes?
Hive Island will be fine, but he's going to perish at sea.
The Celestial Dragons are an inviolable taboo for the vast majority of people on the high seas.
Buzz!
The One Piece ship suddenly trembled, as if it had been hit by something heavy.
It tilted towards the bow.
Bang!
The cabin was blasted open with a punch, Ye Zhuo's tall figure created an invisible sense of oppression for Lafitte.
"Magic..."
Lafitte was about to offer a polite greeting before speaking.
As a result, Ye Zhuo simply removed the roof of the cabin.
"This cabin is too cramped, I feel so stuffy here."
"You wouldn't mind if I took it down, would you?"
Ye Zhuo's words made Lafitte swallow hard.
Whether it's the inexperienced Kidd or the seasoned Lafitte.
Ye Zhuo possessed a different kind of intimidating aura.
This is the oppressive feeling that the Emperor of the Sea wields in the eyes of One Piece.
"Of course... I don't mind, please go ahead."
Lafitte took out a palm-sized Den Den Mushi.
The five Celestial Dragons behind him also saw Ye Zhuo's appearance in the sunlight.
He was still roaring madly, cursing Lafitte to die without a burial place.
Upon seeing Ye Zhuo, three of the five idiots immediately wet their pants.
The other two fainted on the spot.
The nemesis of the Celestial Dragons!
If you don't run away, you'll encounter Ye Zhuo, the Demon King, whom even Admiral wouldn't dare to rescue!
"How can you urinate anywhere like that? It's unhygienic."
It's important to know that you need to replenish fresh water, vitamins, and sugars at sea.
Maintaining hygiene and getting enough sleep are the most important things!
Ye Zhuo's words made Lafitte hesitate to speak.
He realized that all his previous words had been interrupted by Ye Zhuo's appearance.
"My Lord Demon King, please allow our Captain Blackbeard a few words to speak with you."
The Den Den Mushi) is ringing.
It was clear that Blackbeard on the other end of the Den Den Mushi was also taken aback for a moment.
"Blackbeard? How long is his beard?"
Actually, I'm still growing my beard.
Teach's voice came through, sounding somewhat reserved.
Even when communicating through Den Den Mushi, Blackbeard felt somewhat shy in Ye Zhuo's presence.
"Then stop calling him Blackbeard, change his nickname, it's too exaggerated."
"Okay, I'll contact Morgans."
Teach cleared his throat.
"Mr. Demon King!"
The five Celestial Dragons I am sending over were intercepted on their way to the Gold City.
It wasn't for the sake of Beli and gold, but to offer it to the Demon King to vent his anger.
"I only wish to join the Demon King's Grand Fleet and become one of your One Piece crews!"
Ye Zhu Ye Zhuo his head slightly at Blackbeard's words.
So that's why you were so cooped up here!
Anyone with eyes can see it.
The Marine Headquarters' massive expansion was aimed at Ye Zhuo.
Joining their ranks at this point is simply a way to fish in troubled waters.
Are you beautiful?
"Uh... I... no, but..."
Teach hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
"Then why are you even joining?"
"But the Sun Pirates, the Vinsmoke Family, and the Mink Tribe One Piece crews aren't all beauties."
Teach even tried to argue his case.
"They're part of One Piece crew with connections."
Some of my crew members are relatives or friends.
Do you have any friends in my One Piece crew?
Ye Zhuo felt that Teach's little scheme was suicidal.
"I don't."
Teach was ashamed.
"Demon King, we are willing to follow you for life!"
I'd risk my life for anyone, no matter the danger!
Even if it means facing mountains of knives and seas of fire, I would gladly die!
Teach wasn't afraid at all; it was just a matter of saving face.
As long as you join the Demon King's Grand Fleet.
Once the great war breaks out, he can take the opportunity to expand his power and take over Hive Island!
"Then you can attack Marineford now, or Impel Down if you prefer."
Ye Zhuo's words silenced Blackbeard completely.
He immediately tossed out a suitcase.
"There are 500 million Beli inside."
He picked up the two Celestial Dragons beauties with both hands, intending to take them back and train them to be diligent maids.
Swish!
A gust of wind blew by.
Lafitte was completely bewildered.
He glanced at the remaining three Celestial Dragons, who were half-dead with fear, picked up the Den Den Mushi, and said to Blackbeard:
"Captain, what do we do about the three Celestial Dragons the Demon King left behind?"
"He deliberately stayed behind so we could deal with him!"
Teach was so angry she was about to explode.
"Take it back?" Lafitte asked cautiously.
"Don't kill them, don't bring them back. Give them a small boat and let them drift freely."
Blackbeard had no choice but to swallow his anger.
Plan B is activated!
If they don't want me here, there are plenty of other places that will.
Hive Island.
After learning that three new Celestial Dragons had arrived as prospective maids.
Baby5 and Sadi came over to observe for a while, looking quite serious.
After changing into clean maid outfits, training began.
Ye Zhuo glanced at the countdown.
There are still a little over two days left before we can go find Vegapunk.
He rubbed his shoulders and made a point of checking the warehouse and vault.
It's definitely enough, considering the revenue share from Tesoro and Morgans.
Otherwise, if a few hundred more guys were to be sent to the Celestial Dragons, it would be a real headache.
The next day.
The kidnapping of the Celestial Dragons quickly made headlines and shocked the world.
"Breaking news! Celestial Dragons has been kidnapped! Who could have done this?"
"A mysterious figure reveals that Captain Kidd's bounty exceeds 100 million, and he is one of the One Piece who kidnapped Celestial Dragons!"
"The Whitebeard Pirates are in increasing disarray, and many of their crew members are deserting!"
Breaking news! Blackbeard's kidnapping of Celestial Dragons has been exposed; he's just received a bounty on his head and has vanished!
"The remains of three Celestial Dragons have been discovered in the New World. They had been half-eaten by fish and could not be saved!"
"A mysterious figure reveals that there are multiple Celestial Dragons maids on Hive Island!"
Seeing these newspapers, Ye Zhuo felt bored.
Is there really nothing worth reporting?
This Morgans is always trying to ride the coattails of trending topics.
In fact.
The truly terrifying aspect of the Celestial Dragons kidnapping incident is its chain reaction.
The Celestial Dragons, who were once regarded by the world as unattainable and absolutely untouchable, suddenly became no different from ordinary people.
After Ye Zhuo executed Celestial Dragons multiple times.
Following the incident where the Celestial Dragons were given bounties and then kidnapped.
The so-called Celestial Dragons, the gods who created the world, have fallen from their pedestals.
People understand that even gods are being watched closely by the Demon King who rules over death!
