"Heh, I didn't expect you Whitebeard, to still come."
Red-Haired Shanks, standing on the deck of the Red Force, chuckled dryly first, his gaze quickly sweeping across the sea.
Looking at the Whitebeard who was ready for battle, Red-Haired Shanks sighed inwardly with a sense of helplessness.
Not long ago, on the eve of the Four Emperors Alliance banquet, when Red-Haired Shanks saw Whitebeard's name on the invitation list presented by Kaido of the Beasts and Charlotte Linlin, he also sent a letter to Whitebeard, advising him not to go.
Unfortunately, compared to saving face, Red-Haired Shanks' words seemed rather weak and powerless.
" Red-Haired brat, this is no place for you. Get out of here."
Whitebeard glanced at it and snorted coldly.
"If you're going to say that everyone will give you face again, I think Kaido, Linlin, and even you won't let you off the hook."
"However, Kaido, if you intend to swallow me and the Whitebeard Pirates with just these people, you are seriously underestimating us."
"Now, let's stop being so mysterious. Fight or retreat, let's just make it clear."
"Otherwise, such nonsense and swaggering are a complete waste of time. If you want to fight, then pick up your weapons."
Everyone's expression changed drastically at once.
I never expected that Whitebeard would get straight to the point as soon as he opened his mouth.
The other two Four Emperors were also invited to attend the banquet held by the Four Emperors Alliance.
They already understood that this matter was not as simple as they had imagined.
However, Whitebeard's actions, such as immediately tearing off the mask of civility upon his appearance, also overturned their understanding.
Kaido of the Beasts and Charlotte Linlin's faces darkened.
The main reason they held this Four Emperors Alliance banquet was to force Bai Yu to reveal himself.
However, not only did Bai Yu not show up, but someone else also appeared to cause trouble.
The sharpness of their words far exceeded their expectations.
Faced with Whitebeard's aggressive pressure, if Kaido, also one of the Four Emperors, were to back down...
He absolutely could not do such a thing.
"Well done, what a fine Whitebeard!"
Kaido of the Beasts gripped his giant spiked club tightly, stepped forward from the crowd, and said in a stern voice.
"Originally, our main target this time was that brat."
"Unfortunately, what's regrettable is that the brat turned out to be nothing but a cowardly scoundrel. Faced with the Four Emperors Alliance, he didn't even have the courage to show his face."
"What Fifth Emperor of the Sea? That's utterly delusional. He's even dragging down my status."
"Last time, you stood up for him. This time, since that brat is avoiding me, I'll see if he'll stand by and watch you die."
" Whitebeard, today this is your final resting place. The so-called era of the Four Emperors will come to a complete end."
" Red-Haired, now that you're here, make a choice: join us, or become our enemy."
E's words were like a thunderclap.
Faced with Whitebeard's overwhelming power, Kaido of the Beasts instantly exposed everything.
The crowd, who were still speculating, were instantly and completely shocked by this major event.
The expressions of the kingpins of the underground black market changed slightly.
They simply focused their attention intently on Red-Haired Shanks.
There are four Four Emperors of the Sea.
Kaido of the Beasts and Charlotte Linlin have become allies, and their power is unmatched for a time.
However, if Whitebeard could win over Red-Haired Shanks at this critical juncture, the two sides could become evenly matched.
With two Four Emperors Alliance, this battle probably won't even happen.
Feeling the many gazes cast upon him from all around, Red-Haired Shanks sighed helplessly.
"It seems that none of you will give up the idea of fighting for my sake."
" Kaido, your invitation is indeed very tempting, but I have no interest in cooperating with you. I only want to maintain peace on this sea."
"From now on, whichever side initiates a fight, I will intervene to stop it."
" Kaido, if you really insist on Whitebeard, and expect me to stand by and watch..."
"I think you should ask the others to come out."
One stone stirs up a thousand waves!
Everyone's expression changed drastically at once.
In their eyes, the gathering of the Four Emperors was already a major event that shocked the entire sea.
Those capable of intervening in such battles are undoubtedly powerful entities.
However, now, Red-Haired Shanks, has pointed out another group of people.
They still stand on the side of the Four Emperors Alliance.
This undoubtedly brought to mind a vivid image.
Five Elders!
Not long ago, rumors circulated that the Five Elders were involved in the three-way battle held on Whole Cake Island.
If this time it continues to target War Demon Bai Yu.
So, apart from the Four Emperors, the biggest helper, the one with the right to intervene, is probably only the Five Elders.
In an instant, everyone's eyes were on Kaido and Charlotte Linlin.
Even Whitebeard's expression darkened slightly.
He had already anticipated this outcome when he arrived.
However, no one expected that the Five Elders would join forces with pirates to deal with Bai Yu.
Feeling the gazes directed at them from all sides, Kaido of the Beasts and Charlotte Linlin gradually revealed a mocking expression, and then burst into unrestrained laughter.
"Haha, Red-Haired, you little brat are indeed extraordinary. No wonder you managed to become the Four Emperors."
Charlotte Linlin laughed loudly.
"We knew you'd come to join the fun, you nice guy."
"This banquet was indeed held to wipe out that brat in one fell swoop."
"Unfortunately, since he's been scared out of his wits and doesn't dare to show up, we can only settle for the next best thing: making the Whitebeard Pirates disappear completely from the sea."
"To prevent you from interfering with our attack on Whitebeard, the Five Elders are also present this time."
" Nusjuro, come out here."
Nusjuro?
The expressions on the faces of those present changed drastically.
Even Whitebeard and Red-Haired Shanks were no exception.
Not long ago, Bai Yu personally killed one of the Five Elders Nusjuro, and even placed his head inside the Ox Bell in a so-called sea sacrifice.
In their eyes, this battle was enough to make Bai Yu famous all over the world and achieve an amazing feat, making him an uncrowned king.
However, now Charlotte Linlin addresses the Five Elders Nusjuro their first names.
Faced with Nusjuro who had come back from the dead, a question arose in everyone's mind.
Is Bai Yu faking it, or are Charlotte Linlin and Kaido of the Beasts keeping us in suspense?
However, this thought of doubt had only just flashed through his mind.
The next moment, amidst the spatial fluctuations that emerged in the void, a figure strode out in full view of everyone.
He walked out, still wearing a kimono and sporting a shaved head, holding a sword.
This undoubtedly shocked everyone, leaving them with expressions of disbelief.
