"Hey! Did you hear that? The legendary Red the Aloof pirate Patrick Redfield, has subdued the Shichibukai, including Big Bear King, the Popularity King, the Pet King, and the Whitebeard Pirates?"

"I know about this. According to reports, Red the Aloof once stood shoulder to shoulder with the One Piece, Golden Lion, and Whitebeard all by himself."

"Now that they've recruited the Shichibukai and the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates, are they aiming for the throne of Four Emperors?"

"After the Century War, with the deaths of Whitebeard and Fire Fist Ace, the Whitebeard Sea fell into chaos. Not only did the Four Emperors Beasts Pirates set their sights on those wealthy territories, but so did the Red-Haired Pirates."

"According to reports Red the Aloof recently went to the Red-Haired Sea and fought against Four Emperors, Red-Haired. It seems Red-Haired lost and actually returned those islands."

"No way, I heard it was a draw between the two. Red-Haired is a righteous person; he didn't steal the Whitebeard Pirates' islands, but rather he protected them. After all, many pirate crews and forces were eyeing those islands."

Newspapers throughout the New World are filled with stories of Red the Aloof, including his capture of the Shichibukai and the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates, as well as his clashes with the Four Emperors Red-Haired Shanks.

Some reports say Red-Haired Shanks was no Red the Aloof Shanks, while others say they fought to a draw. In short, the outcome is unclear, but the news that Red the Aloof fought against one of the Four Emperors, Red-Haired, is indeed true.

"Breaking news! Breaking news! A fierce battle has broken out between Red the Aloof and the Beasts Pirates!"

The next day, one wave subsided only for another to rise. Another news item caught Da Hai's attention, and Man Fei's report drew all eyes to the New World.

Marineford, the temporary naval base, Sengoku and Tsuru were processing documents when a communications officer walked in.

"Fleet Admiral, news has come from the New World that Red the Aloof has engaged in battles with Four Emperors Red-Haired, Kaido, in an attempt to seize Whitebeard Pirates' territory."

After taking the documents, Sengoku waved for the communications soldier to leave.

A few minutes later, Sengoku and He finished reading the message, which was much more detailed than the one uploaded by Da Hai.

"It seems Redfield wants to become one of the Four Emperors!"

Sengoku tossed the documents onto the desk, then leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to concentrate.

"We guessed it when he subdued the Big Bear King and the others, but it happened faster than we expected. Even the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates have submitted."

Tsuru tapped the chair with one hand, then looked at Sengoku and said, "Now is the perfect time for us to move our headquarters to the New World. Redfield is currently fighting the Beasts Pirates, and his next target will definitely be Sengoku. As long as we can shut up the three Four Emperors, the Four Emperors title will be his. Moreover, Redfield is very aggressive; he actually wants the Beasts Pirates Wano to give up the Whitebeard Pirates' territories."

"The Red-Haired Pirates were a complete accident, but Kaido and God will never easily give up those territories. The result will definitely be a bloodbath."

"Someone come here!" The order was swift and decisive; the Sengoku would never let such an opportunity slip by.

"Fleet Admiral." Rear Admiral walked in from outside the door.

"Notify everyone to attend a meeting. We are preparing to march into the New World. Address: G1 Branch."

"Yes."

Sunrise and sunset, three days have passed in the blink of an eye, and the three seas are filled with turmoil.

Behind the Imperial City, in the mountains, lies Ye Chen's place of cultivation.

"BS, this is the latest situation."

At the summit of the mountain, amidst the rising and falling clouds, Reiju placed a stack of documents in front of Ye Chen and began her report.

"So, Red the Aloof failed?"

Ye Chen stared blankly at the documents in his hand.

"It's not exactly a failure." Reiju shook her head, her waist-length pink hair swaying with fragrance, her demeanor elegant.

"The final outcome of the battle is unclear. Although Red the Aloof didn't reclaim those territories, the Beasts Pirates tacitly approved Redfield's ascension to the position of one of the Four Emperors, and the Red-Haired Pirates had also acknowledged it beforehand."

"The Red the Aloof is truly arrogant, actually wanting all Four Emperors to acknowledge his status. Very assertive and domineering."

It would have been easy for Red the Aloof to become Four Emperors, but she chose a very difficult path, gaining the recognition of all the Four Emperors for her status. Her arrogance and confidence alone were the greatest deterrent.

Once the Red-Haired Pirates, the Beasts Pirates, and the Kingdom acknowledge Red the Aloof as one of the Four Emperors, other forces will have to think twice. They'll have no choice but to accept it, since even three of the Four Emperors have acknowledged Red the Aloof's power. What are other pirate forces compared to that?

"Boss, should we ask Bege and the others to slow down?"

With her beautiful brows slightly furrowed, Reiju looked at Ye Chen.

"No need, let them continue taking over the Whitebeard Pirates' territory."

Putting down the documents, Ye Chen stood up and gazed at the boundless land below, his dark pupils utterly undisturbed.

The Red the Aloof? Back when she entered Impel Down, she had her own strength, but things are different now. Just because she wasn't a match then doesn't mean she isn't now.

"Has the Red the Aloof regained her youth?"

With his hands behind his back, Ye Chen asked without turning his head.

"That seems to be the case. Logically, being imprisoned in Impel Down for decades should cause one's body and age to deteriorate, but Red the Aloof is not like that."

It's important to know that Red the Aloof and Whitebeard were from the same era. During the Century War, Whitebeard was almost on his deathbed, so Red the Aloof should have been quite old as well. However, that's not the case at all now.

"Devil Fruit."

With Sisi of Nitro Fire in his eyes, Ye Chen could easily guess the current situation of the Red the Aloof. The Devil Fruit he had been searching for for so long had been eaten by him due to the inertia of the world.

When Ye Chen was escorting Red the Aloof into Impel Down, he asked her about it. At that time, Red the Aloof didn't know that Redfield only encountered the Devil Fruit after leaving Impel Down.

"What kind of Devil Fruit can not only restore youth but also maintain peak strength?"

"Mythical Zoan Vampire."

"Isn't this the Devil Fruit you've been Rob Lucci and the others search for, Boss?"

"This is it. Alright, is there anything else?" Changing the subject, Ye Chen didn't want to discuss this matter anymore. Now that the Devil Fruit had appeared, it saved a lot of resources from searching for it again.

"I almost forgot, the navy seems to have been making some unusual moves lately."

"What?"

"The Navy established its headquarters in the New World."

Reiju's words made Ye Chen turn around. "New World?"

"Yes, and it's already being implemented. Boss, is there anything we should do?" Reiju's expression was aloof.

"Moving to the New World, is this an attempt to salvage their reputation? The timing is certainly good!" Somewhat sarcastic, Ye Chen wasn't particularly concerned. "Where in the New World?"

"On the back side of the Red Line, formerly the Navy's G1 Branch."

"I thought it was some big ambition, but it turned out to be just climbing one mountain; let's not worry about it for now, there'll be plenty of time to play later."

"Yes."

"Any news about the fruit we're looking for, or the Revolutionary Army Headquarters?"

"There isn't Soul-Soul Fruit yet, but there are a few Devil Fruit User."

"We need to pay attention to all Devil Fruit related to resurrection, as well as the Devil Fruit of Law and the others."

"Understood, Boss."
