Confident Kaido

It has to be said, Big Mom is Big Mom.

The power of the Four Emperors is beyond doubt; the massive sword energy Shockwave cleaved the sea in two, creating a chasm.

"Gulalalalala..."

Whitebeard laughed again, then activated his Quake-Quake ability, and a white halo appeared on the greatsword in his hand.

"Boom..."

Just as Big Mom's attack was about to hit him, Whitebeard swung his greatsword.

The powerful force directly shattered the giant sword energy Shockwave of the Big Mom.

Meanwhile, Moke was sitting on a Sky Island, still experiencing the effects of the Devil Fruit he had just eaten.

Standing beside him were ten people: Enel, Weevil, Jinbe, Shiryu, Gizas Jesus Burgess, Katrin Demi, Basque Vasco Shot, Avalo Pizarro, Ulti, Page One.

The Ape King — Burns, Ata, Brook, Perona, Baby-5, Sugar, Monet, Rebecca, Ms. Miss Goldenweek, and Carina— remained in Gold City in case of any unforeseen circumstances.

Shiryu, Katrin Demi, Basque Vasco Shot, Avalo Pizarro, Carina have already eaten the Devil Fruit that Moke prepared for them.

Shiryu: Logia - Static-Static Fruit.

Carina: Paramecia - Barrier-Barrier Fruit.

Katrin Demi: Paramecia - Bouncy-Bouncy Fruit.

Basque Vasco Shot: Zoan - Ancient Zoan - Emperor Crocodile Form.

Abaro Pizarro: Zoan - Mythical Zoan - Qiongqi Form.

After consuming Devil Fruit, the five of them experienced a significant increase in strength... This is why Moke was so confident. With himself, Enel, Weevil, and the other three—ten people in total—he was confident he could defeat Kaido's crew.

In particular, the abilities that Katrin Demi gained after eating the Paramecia Bounce- Bouncy-Bouncy Fruit were truly astonishing. Among these individuals, Shiryu ate the Logia - Static-Static Fruit, also became incredibly powerful.

His skill level has definitely reached the same level as Enel and Weevil, making him a true vice-emperor. Moreover, unlike Enel, he doesn't lack Haki, having eaten the Logia Static-Static Fruit.

Unlike Weevil, it is not lacking in speed.

He might not be a match for Enel in Shinuchi. But overall, he is the strongest of the three.

Because he had no flaws left.

Unless one defeats him with overwhelming power, no one can stop the longsword in his hand.

At this moment, he was looking at the distant sea, his hands trembling with excitement. Because he knew that a great battle was about to begin.

The All-Stars Jhin and Queen, the three from the six runners—Foz Fur, Black Maria, and Sasaki —along with the Shinuchi Speed, Babanuki, Daifugo, Dobon... they all showed up.

There are also a large number of artificial Devil Fruit User and numerous ordinary pirates.

They could now all see the small island in front of them.

King raised an eyebrow. "Captain, what's going on with Big Mom? Why hasn't she arrived yet? Could it be...?"

At that moment, he had a strong premonition. And this premonition was extremely bad...

He didn't finish his sentence, but everyone present already understood his meaning. So, they all looked at Kaido. Because King had essentially voiced what everyone was thinking.

Kaido's expression also turned somewhat grim, but he still shook his head. "Charlotte Linlin won't break her promise."

Queen asked meaningfully, "Captain, did you encounter any trouble on the way?"

"Whitebeard!"

The name immediately popped into Kaido's mind.

King and Queen exchanged a glance, because it was indeed a possibility. After all, during the Summit War, Moke had done the Whitebeard Pirates a great favor.

Therefore, if Moke were to suggest that the Whitebeard Pirates hold off the Big Mom Pirates for him, given Whitebeard's personality, he would absolutely agree.

"Fine..."

King and Queen felt a sense of relief.

Because he had actually anticipated this. After all, Moke wasn't stupid enough to stand idly by as two Emperor Level pirate crews joined forces.

Their captain doesn't care about anything, because he prefers to defeat his opponents with sheer strength.

However, they had to do some calculations.

Therefore, when they joined forces with the Big Mom Pirates...

They had already prepared for the worst: the Whitebeard Pirates would hold off one of the two Emperor Level pirate crews. In the end, one of their Emperor Level pirate crews would engage the Moke Pirates in a one-on-one battle.

They looked back.

It's fair to say that all the manpower we could bring has been brought. We even drew personnel from Wano Country. Looking back now, that decision was incredibly wise.

"Hehehe..."

Kaido laughed, his eyes gleaming with ferocity. "Dealing with that Moke is no problem for me alone!"

Foz-Foe: "Captain... once we pass that small island, we'll reach Moke's Gold City."

Kaido waved his hand. "Full speed ahead... uh?!!!"

Before he could finish speaking, a terrifying force swept in from the small island not far ahead.

"Bang... bang... bang..."

On the pirate ship, those who were weaker were all struck as if by a heavy blow, their faces turning pale and swaying precariously. Those who were even weaker fell one after another.

There was absolutely no warning.

Kaido, King, Queen, and the three members of the Six Runners: Who's Who, Black Maria, and Sasaki.

His eyes narrowed involuntarily.

Their gaze fell upon the small island in front of them.

"Conqueror's Haki... Is this a reminder? Or a warning?" King wondered.

However, he immediately realized. "Captain, I'm afraid Moke and his gang are on this island."

Queen, standing to the side, was taken aback at first, then nodded in strong agreement. "After all, their stronghold is the Gold City, known as the world's number one entertainment city... Anyone would be heartbroken if it were damaged. That's why they've been waiting for us on this island for so long."

At this point, the tone shifted. "However... this means they were probably prepared all along on this island!"

Hearing the implication in Queen's words, Kaido raised an eyebrow.

He then laughed, "Hehehe... That would be perfect. King, Queen, Foz Firth, Black Maria, Sasaki, you're all coming to the island with me."

"Speed, Babanuki, Daifugo, you take all your Shinuchi, go around this island, and take over the Gold City for me."

Everyone shouted in unison, "It's the captain!"

Kaido is absolutely the undisputed leader of the Beast Pirates, so no one would oppose his decisions.
