King

Katakuri, Smoothie, Cracker, Snack, Amande, and Snamon stared at each other.

His eyes were filled with helplessness.

I don't know what Moke and his gang are doing, they're always floating around in the sky.

None of them can fly!

What to do?

Could it be that when you go back, you'll bring your Geppo brothers who can use Geppo — Newichi, Newji, Newsan, Newshi, and Newgo— with you?

Given their strength, even if they made it to the top...

At most, it will just give Moke and his gang a few more kills.

What should we do now?

According to the Vivre Card, Oven, Daifuku, Raisin, Custard, and Galette are still alive!

We can't just abandon them!

The group looked at each other, at a loss for what to do.

In the end, Katakuri made the final decision. "There's no other way... We can only go back first and have Mom make more Homies that can carry us up."

Smoothie, Cracker, Snack, Amande, and Snamon were silent for a moment after hearing this. Finally, they nodded; this was the only way now.

At the same time, each of them had their own speculations.

After all, in the entire human world, there is only one person who can fly in the air for an extended period of time, and that is Golden Lion Shiki.

That guy is ruthless!

After all, 38 years ago, Golden Lion Shiki, like his mother, was also a member of the Rocks Pirates. After the Rocks Pirates disbanded, he formed his own Flying Pirates.

He roamed the New World, and was a long-time rival of Edward Elric Newgate, Gol D. Roger, and others.

27 years ago, he wanted to join forces with Gol D. Roger in order to rule the world. After being rejected by Gol D. Roger, he was furious and the two pirate crews broke out into a fierce battle known as the "Battle of Edd War".

Roger Pirates was chased to the brink of destruction by him.

If it weren't for the Flying Pirates' fleet being mostly swept to the bottom of the sea by a sudden storm, and an unexpected incident where the rudder unfortunately got stuck on Shiki (forcibly pulling the rudder out would have been life-threatening), the situation would have been different.

I'm afraid the Roger Pirates would have been wiped out long ago... and the One Piece might have to be changed.

Could it be that Moke and the Shiki have some connection? Or have they joined forces?

Thinking of this, the expressions on their faces grew increasingly grim. After all, Shiki was definitely a powerhouse on par with their mother. Facing him would be a headache for anyone.

"Rumble..."

Just then, a deafening clap of thunder sounded directly above them.

They all looked up.

High in the sky, Lightning Flash, seemingly tearing through the clouds to reveal a ship... and a black dot kept crashing towards it, only to be blocked time and time again.

They are all intelligent people.

After a slight pause, they immediately showed expressions of delight.

Then, with a hint of shock, he said, "A flying ship? No wonder... In that case, it shouldn't be the Shiki."

This relieved them.

At the same time, they also guessed who that black dot belonged to.

Katakuri: "That person should be King from the Beast Pirates."

Smoothie nodded. "Yes... This Moke crew not only captured Oven, Daifuku, Raisin, Custard, and Galette, but also Jack of the Beast Pirates. They even turned Ulti and Page One against them. The Beast Pirates, like us, will not let them get away with this."

Cracker: "We should have known better. We're looking for Moke's crew. How could the Beast Pirates just stand by and do nothing?"

Amande lowered his head and thought for a moment, "Perhaps the Beast Pirates have already found them. However, the Beast Pirates, like us, probably didn't expect Moke's crew to be high in the sky. Therefore, they weren't adequately prepared... and ultimately made the same decision as us, to go back first... or, to directly notify King to come here."

Snamon, however, was somewhat puzzled. "Kaido? Knowing his temperament, he should come personally and twist these guys' heads off one by one."

Upon hearing this, everyone exchanged bewildered glances once again.

His pupils contracted slightly; it seemed Kaido was about to do something earth-shattering again.

Meanwhile, high in the sky.

Enel stood proudly atop his Ark Maxim, coldly staring at King.

King stopped attacking and stared intently at Enel: "You're Enel, the vice-captain of the Moke Pirates?"

His brow furrowed slightly. He knew that the guy in front of him was Logia Rumble-Rumble Fruit Sengoku Devil Fruit User. He had fought Kizaru and Kizaru during the Marineford War.

Although they were at a disadvantage, they emerged unscathed from that level of warfare.

Its strength is beyond doubt.

His gaze then fell on the tall figure standing beside Enel. His brows furrowed once more...

Weevil, a guy who calls himself the son of Whitebeard.

Even he had heard of it. It was said to possess the power of Whitebeard in his youth... Looking at the beard that was so similar to Whitebeard's.

His pupils contracted.

Just now, when he charged towards this special pirate ship, this guy also made a move. With a single slash, he directly knocked him back. His strength should not be underestimated.

Based on initial assessments, his strength is estimated to be no less than Jack's.

"This is troublesome..."

If it were just one person, he was confident he could get Jack back. But... his gaze fell on Enel. He hadn't expected this guy to return so quickly.

Without him, of all the Moke's gang, only Weevil was worthy of his attention. He could have easily forced his way in and rescued Jack... but now...

Jin fell silent.

After a long pause. "Release Jack, and I can forgive and forget on behalf of the Hundred-Year Pirates..."

"Hehe..."

Enel responded with a cold laugh.

Jin's eyes suddenly sharpened. He only asked for Jack's release, without even mentioning the two traitors, Ulti and Page One.

They've taken several steps back.

We've already given them plenty of face, but I never expected them to still have this attitude.

"It seems you are determined to be enemies of the Beast Pirates."

"Since that's the case... the next time we meet will be the day you die."

Jin didn't eat the Ship-Ship Fruit. Therefore, he wasn't that brave, stubbornly persisting even when he knew it was impossible.

A decisive retreat was made.

Because he needs to reorganize the Beast Pirates' strength and wipe out the entire Moke Pirates... Otherwise, anyone would dare to bully the Beast Pirates in the future.

He flew downwards, hovering at low altitude. Unexpectedly, he spotted the pirate ship belonging to Big Mom Pirates on the sea.

Out of curiosity, it fell down.

I was somewhat surprised to see Katakuri, Smoothie, Cracker, Snack, Amande, and Snamon.

There was still some confusion... After all, these guys were arguably the strongest fighters in the Big Mom Pirates besides Big Mom herself. Such a lineup...

He couldn't help but look up and ask, "You're here for the Moke Pirates too?"
