Wano Country was vast. Although the commotion here was considerable, it had not drawn the attention of the Overlord Dragon Pirates or the Silver Axe Pirates.
Shiki placed one hand on Pluton.
Under the power of the Float-Float Fruit, the entire battleship slowly floated into the air.
Now, Pluton appeared before everyone in its entirety, once again leaving them shaken to the core.
