Sparta, the Royal City: The Beasts' Fury

The five contestants from Warrior Village set off, and of course, the rest of Blackbeard Pirates followed!

"Hehehehe! Thank you so much, Giant brother!" Teach sat on the shoulder of a giant, with Domi beside him. As for the others, they were suffering from vomiting and diarrhea for various indescribable reasons, and their bodies were so weak that they could only be supported by two Giant warriors to keep them moving...

"Haha, no need to be so polite! After all, you are our guests, and you are also Rando's friends! This little favor is nothing!" The giant laughed heartily. At their speed, they would probably reach the Giant's capital by noon!

"Captain, is my cooking really that bad? Why are they all like this?" Fakyu looked frustrated. Although it was her first time cooking, Domi was quite confident in her skills! But why did her companions all look half-dead after eating it?

"Hahaha! It's not your fault! They endured the Siberian cold front and the Southeast Asian heat wave this morning, which caused them to have stomach problems! It's alright, they'll be fine after a rest!" Seeing the tears welling up in Domi's eyes, how could Teach bear to tell the truth? It was better to just comfort her!

"But why are you alright, Captain?" Domi asked, voicing a profound question.

Teach wiped the cold sweat from his brow, thinking to himself: Heh! If I hadn't used the Dark-Dark Fruit's power to devour the Cherry Pie into the Dark Space the instant it entered my stomach, do you think I'd be alright?

"Hahaha! Captain, I'm in good health! Besides, I ate the food you made, and I'm fine now, aren't I?" Teach's words rekindled the hope in Domi's eyes!

"That's great! From now on, I'll take care of the ship's meals!" Domi grinned smugly. Upon hearing this, the others, half-dead, miraculously raised their heads, then immediately breathed their last (They're not dead, they're not dead)...

With their long legs moving constantly, the two giants arrived at the capital of the Giant around 11 o'clock!

Although the construction of the Giant's capital was not as magnificent as that of the human world, it was exceptionally clean and tidy! The square blue bricks were stacked together perfectly, and the dignified and imposing city gates were also very smooth! Although the size of the buildings was more than ten times that of human capitals, in the eyes of Teach and the others, the entire capital was like a work of art, without the slightest flaw!

This is absolutely a godsend for people with obsessive-compulsive disorder!

"Hahaha! Is this the capital of the Giant Kingdom? It's truly magnificent!" Teach jumped down from the giant's shoulder. At over three meters tall, he was no different from Giant child. He walked to the city wall and gently stroked the blue bricks. He had to admit that the craftsmanship of the Giant was indeed not to be underestimated!

"Hahaha! This trip to the Giant was truly wonderful!" Teach waved to the two giants, then, under their astonished gazes, swaggered into the giant capital! His relaxed and carefree demeanor made him seem as if he were returning home!

"Halt! Whose child is this? Doesn't he know that he needs to be accompanied by an adult to enter the royal city?" The giant at the city gate blocked Teach's way, looking at the little guy who was less than 4 meters tall, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.

With his natural build, he'll probably never reach 10 meters tall when he grows up! What a poor kid! But why does he have a beard? It's... well, really ugly!

"Hahaha! You're calling me a child?" Teach's gruff voice made the giant's expression change. He instantly raised his greatsword and stared at Teach!

"Outsider? What do you want? Do you intend to assassinate our royal family and seize control of the Giant Kingdom? Unfortunately, with my Giant warrior, Hundred Daydream, here, your plan will fail before it even begins! Surrender!" The giant sternly rebuked him, while fantasizing about defeating the invaders, earning the royal family's praise, and winning the princess's favor! Then he could show off his bravery, win the princess's heart, marry a rich and powerful man, and reach the pinnacle of life! (Do I even need to describe the princess's appearance...?)

"Hehe..." Thinking of this, the giant warrior actually let out a silly chuckle.

Is this guy an idiot?

Teach thought so, and in the end, it was the two giant warriors who pulled the guard out of his fantasy. After this misunderstanding, Blackbeard and his crew finally entered the capital of the Giant — Sparta!

The match doesn't start until tomorrow, so they decided to take a good rest today and prepare for tomorrow's battle!

Of course, Blackbeard and his crew once again received a lovingly prepared and nutritious meal from Domi...

World Government Science Department Base Location

"Hahaha, my old friend! Long time no see!" Vegapunk looked at the obese Queen with great enthusiasm. "You've gained quite a bit of weight! Looks like you're living a good life, huh? I just wonder if your skills have declined!"

Queen glanced at Vegapunk in front of him and spat on the ground with disdain!

"Vegapunk, you bastard! You captured me here for my unparalleled skills, didn't you? Heh, I advise you to give up on that idea! I will never betray Mr. Kaido! Besides, you are not worthy to witness my superb skills!" Queen said without any fear, his face full of disdain.

"Haha, my old friend! Of course I know Kaido has treated you well, but how ridiculous is the idea of submitting to a foolish pirate!" Vegapunk continued to verbally attack Queen's mind. Queen's skills were crucial to them, something he was determined to obtain!

"You bastard, you're not allowed to insult Mr. Kaido! Mr. Kaido is not only my boss, but also my savior! I would never betray Mr. Kaido in my entire life! As for the technology you want? Ha, you, Vegapunk, claim to be 500 years ahead of human intelligence, right? What? Even a stupid pirate like me can learn it, but you, Vegapunk, can't do it? Then what do you mean by being 500 years ahead of human intelligence? Bah!" Queen cursed, no longer caring about his own safety, because having come here, his fate was probably already sealed...

The World Government's Science Department is extremely secretive; only the Navy and high-ranking officials of the World Government likely know about it! In other words, to rescue himself, Mr. Kaido must capture a high-ranking figure and force him to reveal his whereabouts before he can get here! And this place is guarded by countless elite soldiers, as well as by numerous advanced weapons created by Vegapunk!

Rescuing himself would be no less difficult than breaking into Marine HQ, giving Akainu a Big Slap, and then walking out openly!

"You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences! Someone, let my old friend try my new creation..." Vegapunk's face broke into a wicked grin, his sinister expression sending a chill down one's spine...

"I ***! Vegapunk, did you hear me? I, Queen, will *** you! You bastard who gave birth to a child without an anus! I'll haunt you even as a ghost!" Queen cursed, countless nationalistic phrases escaping his mouth, even causing the highly composed Dr. Vegapunk to frown.

At the same time

Marine HQ

"Damn it, how did this guy end up here!" A Vice Admiral from the Marine HQ looked at the sky and involuntarily swallowed.

"Navy bastards! Give my men back!"
