Garp's Call, What Was Seen in the Red-Haired Pirates' Territory / The Yonko Big Mom Makes Her Move, Storm Clouds Gather

"Damn it! That nosy bastard!!"

"The world is about to be shaken!! Ordinary people don't know what these things mean, but those who stand at the pinnacle of the ocean will likely find it impossible to keep secrets any longer!!"

"The peak combat power of the Beyond the Four Emperors!! And yet, it's just one..."

In the territory of the Four Emperors, Whitebeard Newgate Edward at the newspaper in his hand, his expression unusually solemn. If Big News Morgans was telling the truth, then this former Shichibukai was someone who surpassed the Beyond the Four Emperors.

"Another Garp? Whoosh!! Whoosh!!"

"A monster from the Divine Realm has appeared in the world once again!!!"

In the realm of the Four Emperors, they refer to combat power surpassing the Emperor-Class as the Divine Realm.

That's the level of developing a Devil Fruit ability to its fullest extent, or cultivating a form of Haki to its ultimate level. He originally had the potential to reach that level, but as a pirate, he didn't have access to comprehensive medical care. As he grew older, his strength gradually declined, leaving him standing at the threshold of the Divine Realm, sighing in despair!

Upon seeing this report, Red-Haired Shanks, for some reason, suddenly recalled the shockwave that had shaken the world before. "Could it be that person? I really want to witness his Swordsmanship!!"

Charlotte Linlin of the Big Mom Pirates screamed when she read that Kaido was seriously injured. She and Kaido were old acquaintances, and she knew very well how strong his defense was. To put it bluntly, even if he just stood there, he would make people sigh.

"Bacchan!!"

At the Revolutionary Army headquarters, Monkey D. Dragon and several other officers stared at the newspaper in silence for a long time.

At Marine Headquarters, Sengoku stared at the newspaper for a moment, then turned and roared at Garp in a grim tone, "Garp! You bastard! Look what you've done! Why didn't you capture this kid back then?! He's stronger Beyond the Four Emperors!!"

Aokiji saw the newspaper and let out a long sigh!

"Has he even reached the Divine Realm?! This brat!!"

On this day, the sea surged with a massive wave, shocking the entire world.

The great battle that took place in Dressrosa was vividly described by Big News Morgans as "the Battle of the Age!!"

Chapter 158 Garp's Phone Call, Observations from Red-Hair's Territory

"Soga!!"

Dongze hung up the phone. It was a call from Garp, from Garp he learned something.

It turns out that when an ability is mastered to its peak, there is a risk of death if it is used. This is why Garp usually does not unleash his full power after mastering Armament Haki.

This reminded him of his attack in Dressrosa, where he instinctively unleashed a Cold River strike. He guessed that this was the reason for his Cold River.

This turned what should have been a full ten minutes into a mere thirty seconds.

"It seems there are still some secrets about this place that I'm unaware of?"

"Dongze, you're in the newspaper!"

On a small island in the New World, Robin, holding a newspaper, said with schadenfreude.

"Haha! You got exposed too! What's so funny!"

"The Five Emperors Sama! The Emperor of Swords— Dongze Sama!"

Looking at Robin's teasing expression, Dongze's lips twitched slightly.

"I'm wanted by the police; life won't be so peaceful from now on!"

"If you will not abandon me, I will not leave you!"

Where did you learn those slick lines?

"I learned it from you!"

When did I say that??

"It's in the books you've read before, and on those bookmarks!"

"What a pity! The ship is probably destroyed!!"

"Let's buy another one!"

Remembering what Garp had told him, Dongze glanced in the direction of Dressrosa; it seemed he couldn't go there again anytime soon.

This place Kiel Island, a small island in Red-Haired Shanks' territory.

The island's environment is quite good; the villagers only need to pay a certain amount of money on time to receive Shanks' protection.

Compared to Big Mom's and Kaido's territories, this place is undoubtedly paradise.

After arriving here, the two settled in a restaurant called "Home of the Sea".

The restaurant was bustling with activity, and no one paid any attention to the two strangers.

However, in the New World, there are still many strangers. Every day, some unknown things happen, and people come and go. You get used to it.

Here, people learned not to ask what they shouldn't ask, and not to say what they shouldn't say; only in this way can they live a long life.

The restaurant owner was a plump middle-aged Big Mom, and not particularly good-looking.

He had droopy eyebrows, triangular eyes, a face full of fat, and a fierce look.

However, she is not a bad person at heart; one can guess this from the fact that she didn't kick out the homeless men behind the door.

The weather outside wasn't great. The weather in the New World was known for its unpredictability. Dressrosa had a pleasant climate before, but here it was snowing lightly.

The sea breeze brought a chill that crept in like a persistent, mischievous imp, making people instinctively tighten their sleeves even further.

"Have you heard? Another emperor has appeared on the high seas!"

"Sword Emperor - Dongze!"

"I heard he severely injured Kaido in Dressrosa!"

"What?! The World's Strongest Creature?"

"Yes! For so many years, apart from being wounded by a Samurai before, we haven't heard of this monster being scarred again! But we've heard that he got another hideous scar on his chest during the battle of Dressrosa!"

"It's unimaginable just how strong that Sword Emperor — Dongze— is!!"

"I don't know! I don't even know if he'll come here?"

"He's here? Damn, what's he doing here?"

"Besides, it's a week's journey from here to Dressrosa! How could he possibly get there in such a short time!"

Hearing the whispers of the crowd around him, Dongze paid no attention and was considering his next move.

His current targets are the Poneglyph, and as far as he knows, one is Wano Country, and the other is Big Mom's.

There's also the Mokomo Dukedom, which is Zunesha. However, Zunesha's location is hard to pinpoint because it's constantly moving, and it's really difficult to find without a guide.

Of course, it would be much simpler if someone led the way, plus there was a lion in Big Mom's territory, he remembered it was called Pekoms, which happened to be from there.

If he were to lead the way, finding Zunesha would likely be very easy.

Then there's Red-Hair. There's a lot of information about Red-Hair. He was once an apprentice on Roger's ship. He's the youngest of the Four Emperors of the New World, the strongest user of Conqueror's Haki in his home world, and the Red Hair Pirates have the highest Pirate Crew per member among the Four Emperors' crews.

During Reverie, I entered Victory Mary Geoise, met with the Five Elders, and discussed some matters.

Judging from the situation at the time, the Five Elders had no intention of taking action, which means that the other party's identity can be considered questionable.

His true identity is very likely that he is Celestial Dragons, and a Celestial Dragons is also Four Emperors of the Sea). This is much more exciting than a Celestial Dragons who is also Shichibukai). Of course, this is just a guess.

However, whether he possesses the Poneglyph is unknown, so we won't consider him for now. As for the Whitebeard Pirates, their situation is also unknown, so we'll put them on the back list for now.

In other words, he now has two goals: Big Mom and Wano Country. In terms of final profits, the Big Mom Pirates will gain more.

Comparing the two, he decided to prioritize the larger one, so he set his sights on the Big Mom Pirates next.

Just then, a group of more than a dozen people slowly entered the restaurant, causing the diners to be taken aback. They recognized these people as the captain and top-tier combatants of the Red Hair Pirates' affiliated Pirate Crew.

These people usually help Red-Hair gather intelligence and rarely show themselves.

Unexpectedly, an exception was made today, with a group of more than a dozen people being the core force of his Pirate Crew.

Just as everyone was wondering what this group of people were doing there, they saw them walk towards a table by the window.

"I never expected to see you here! Sword Emperor — Dongze!! I think our boss, Red-Haired Shanks, would be overjoyed to know you were here!!"

"Oh! You've discovered it!"

"Is the Red-Hair here?"

"Sorry, the boss isn't nearby! But I've already informed him that you're here, so he should be back soon!!"

"Is that so!"

"Go talk to Red-Hair again. I'll come visit again in a while; I still have a debt to collect! As for Red-Hair, I'm really curious about his true identity. Is he just an ordinary person from the West Blue, or that person's son, or... a powerful figure in this world?!"

Upon hearing Dongze's words, the person in front of him was stunned for a moment, and cold sweat had unknowingly covered his forehead. He was an intelligence agent for the Four Emperors, Red-Hair.

He did know some of this information, but as Dongze said, he only had a few guesses, all of which involved identities that couldn't be revealed.

"Huh?! What is the Sword Emperor saying?! I don't understand!"

"Hehe~ Robin, let's go!!"

Chapter 159 The Moves of the Four Emperors: A Storm is Coming

Riding the wind on a sword, I vanquish demons across the land.

Dongze flew on his sword, covering a thousand miles in an instant, leaving behind a crowd of astonished onlookers. Only then did they realize why he had such a title.

"Perhaps this sir should not be called the Sword Emperor, but rather the Sword Immortal!"

"Holy crap!! That man was actually the Sword Emperor himself!!"

"So, that pretty young lady from before was the Devil Child, Nicole Robin, who's known as the most evil being?"

"So sexy! I was completely mesmerized!"

"This old man actually met the Sword Emperor himself!! Haha! How lucky I am!!"

"Wait a minute! He said he was going to collect debts? Did he go to Wano Country?"

"What? Dongze has left again?"

"Judging from what he said, it seems he went to Wano Country!!"

"Baka! That's the direction we came from. If we were going to Wano Country, how could we not see it!"

"Boss! He flew there on a sword!!"

"..."

"Doringo! Are you out of your mind? Flying on a sword? There's only one Golden Lion!"

Upon hearing his subordinate's report, a look of bewilderment flashed across Red-Hair' eyes. Sword control? Was this a shadow play? Or a mythological tale?

Upon hearing Red-Hair's words, Doringo was momentarily speechless with embarrassment. If he hadn't seen it himself, would he have believed it was real?

But the other person really did jump onto a Flying Sword right in front of him, and then flew away!

He even slapped himself twice to confirm if it was true. Unfortunately, it was true, but now his boss didn't believe him, and he was at a loss for what to do.

"What's wrong, Doringo?"

When Shanks heard no sound from the Den Den Mushi, he thought something had happened to him and quickly asked.

"Boss! It's true!! I'm not lying to you! Xiao Ji and the others saw it. If you don't believe me, come back and ask them. If I'm lying, may I never find a wife for the rest of my life!"

Upon hearing this, the Red-Hair's eyes widened. He knew exactly what his subordinate looked like. If it weren't for his beast-like appearance, making him difficult to describe, and with him around, how could he not find a wife if he was at least presentable? But the fact remained: he was still single.

He quickly said, "Hey! This is a serious oath, you can't just make it carelessly. Looking at you, you'll probably be alone for the rest of your life. Don't make such an oath!!"

Doringo's head instantly went blank; did he mean that?

"Baka! I meant what I said before was true!!"

"Ah! I believe you are Doringo, don't rush! Don't rush!"
