With Lind setting out to sea, Wano Country was inevitably becoming the center of the storm.
Meanwhile, the Roger Pirates had no idea what awaited them ahead. They were still laughing and having fun, completely unaware of what lay in store.
They were in no hurry to reach Wano Country and obtain the Red Road Poneglyph, either. Perhaps it was because they were all still fairly young.
It was worth mentioning that Lind had done an excellent job gathering intelligence in the New World over the past few years.
Four of the Six Emperors were about to clash in Wano Country in a battle that would shake the world, yet the World Government and the Navy had received virtually no information. They had no intention of joining the fray, either, which quietly eliminated quite a few uncertainties from the coming battle.
On February 20, 1490 of the Sea Circle Calendar, Lind and Charlotte Linlin arrived in Wano Country first, thanks to their intelligence advantage.
When Kaido learned why they had come, Lind told him about Lodestar Island, the Red Road Poneglyphs, the truth of eight hundred years ago, and a whole series of related matters.
Kaido was shocked again and again-once, twice, then yet again. The stunned expression never left his face before Lind finished explaining.
It was also Kaido's first time learning concrete information about Laugh Tale, and excitement stirred in his heart.
Kaido had little interest in the so-called truth of eight hundred years ago, but reaching the legendary Laugh Tale and becoming the "Pirate King" was another matter entirely.
Although Kaido greatly admired his former boss, Rocks, he also felt that Rocks had fallen a little short.
Rocks had challenged the World Government's authority enormously, but he had still fallen short of the world-scale war Kaido envisioned.
