Issho vs. King

Actually.

Even King, who came from the brute-force Beasts Pirates, was feeling a little intimidated at this moment.

After all.

The man standing before him was a terrifying existence who had effortlessly crushed his third brother Jack and even defeated his boss Kaido.

On top of that, Roya had the World's Greatest Swordsman, Hawkeye Mihawk, at his side.

With a lineup like this, perhaps even King knew that he stood no chance against them.

Unfortunately.

Given the Beasts Pirates' usual way of doing things.

This was no time for King to show weakness!

"Humph!"

"Roya!"

"Our boss Kaido has already given the order!"

"Today, you're coming with us no matter what!"

King still spoke with great forcefulness.

As for Perospero!

Though he was Big Mom's eldest son, his strength was nowhere near that of the Three Sweet Commanders of the Big Mom Pirates!

Moreover, Perospero had witnessed Roya's true strength firsthand at Marineford. Naturally, he knew that if he and the pirate grunts behind him truly fought Roya's group, all of them combined probably would not even be enough to fill Roya's teeth.

So.

When it came to Perospero, he knew when to back down.

However, he could not disobey Big Mom's orders either.

Since he could not charge in and fight head-on like King, Perospero planned to win them over with reason!

"Roya!"

"We truly mean no harm!"

"Whether you agree to cooperate or not, please come with us!"

"Otherwise, it'll be difficult for me to explain things to Mama when I return!"

Perospero began playing the emotional card.

What he said was not wrong, though. With Big Mom's personality, since she had sent Perospero out, she would certainly demand that he complete the task. Otherwise, when he returned, he might truly be punished—or even have his lifespan taken
