On the vast ruins, everyone's expression changed, and their gazes toward Zoro were now filled with shock.

Yamato was no exception.

Yamato's initial misjudgment of Zoro as Bai Yu was indeed due to his recklessness.

However, the bigger reason is Zoro's strength, which is enough to earn recognition and place him among the strongest.

However, to their utter surprise, the strength they thought they had reached the maximum estimated value actually came from...

It turns out this was just the beginning.

Most importantly, this kind of person is Bai Yu's subordinate.

"Jin, this brat who uses the Three-Sword Style, his strength..."

Kaido's face was extremely grim.

According to the plan, he should first provoke Bai Yu, creating an opportunity for the Five Elders to launch a sneak attack.

The plan has not only failed, but some unknown combat forces have also emerged.

This is definitely not good news for Kaido.

He didn't want to rely too much on the Five Elders.

"His strength is probably enough to rival mine, but it's possible he's hiding other trump cards."

Jin said in a deep voice.

Originally, in Jin's eyes, Bai Yu's strength was indeed unfathomable.

However, with Kaido joining forces with him, it shouldn't be difficult to restrain or even kill him.

Zoro's appearance has undoubtedly become a variable.

"Able to contend with you?"

Kaido's expression instantly turned ugly.

Jin was his most capable lieutenant.

It took so much effort to get to where I am today.

Now, even a random Moss Head can reach the level of ashes.

This comparison was somewhat unacceptable to Kaido.

However, considering that this time they had come prepared, Kaido still spoke with a cold smile.

"Little devil, it seems we really underestimated you this time. After causing so many big incidents at Marine Headquarters, you've still managed to secretly cultivate such a powerful subordinate."

"Unfortunately, this time, not only will you die, but I'm afraid even these men won't escape."

"To deal with you, not just one of the Five Elders has come!"

Buzz!

The spatial fluctuations surged forth.

Everyone's attention was instantly drawn to it.

A vortex, seemingly torn open out of thin air, rapidly expanded in the void, eventually giving way to a series of figures stepping out.

One, two, three!

Including the Nusjuro who suddenly attacked, there are now four of the Five Elders.

This astonishing number completely exceeded everyone's expectations.

There were only five people in total, and four of them showed up.

What a magnificent lineup!

As soon as the three appeared, their gazes were instantly locked on Bai Yu, with Daps leading the group.

Originally, he planned to stay in Holy Land Mary Geoise's.

However, after seeing that Killer was also severely injured, Daps decided to come in person.

After all, the Devil Fruit ability he possesses is probably the most unbeatable in this entire ocean.

" Bai Yu, I never expected we'd meet in this kind of situation."

Daps tightened his grip on his cane slightly and spoke coldly.

"Your surprise attack on Wano Country by taking advantage of this opportunity certainly caught the world off guard and also caught Kaido of the Beasts off guard."

"However, I'm actually more eager to see this happen, because your cleverness has become your fatal flaw."

"You underestimated the capabilities of the Five Elders. You probably didn't expect us to arrive so quickly."

"However, I'm still a little surprised that you guessed we were coming. I'd like to know why."

Killer and Sals also showed a hint of surprise at this question.

Their collaboration with Kaido after the attack on Wano Country was a spur-of-the-moment decision.

However, Bai Yu's words exposed their plan, ruining their perfect opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

This undoubtedly left them unable to figure out the reason for the time being.

Yamato, who was standing to the side, also subconsciously looked at Bai Yu.

She hadn't detected a trace of the Five Elders ' presence when they appeared just now.

Even Observation Haki didn't react.

This is enough to demonstrate the terrifying power of Killer's Space-Space Fruit ability.

Feeling the gazes from all around, Bai Yu smiled knowingly.

"Who told you to have such a terrible teammate? Just half an hour ago, Kaido told Orochi that he wouldn't be back for another twelve hours."

"Now that you've suddenly appeared out of nowhere, if it weren't for your Five Elders ' little tricks, I really can't think of anyone else who would be delivering my package."

"However, I'm curious, is this the stellar lineup you've prepared for me? Taking me down might be a bit difficult."

"Did Kaido ruin our plans?" The Nusjuro's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth as he glanced at the monk.

"You really are a terrible teammate. If you hadn't been so talkative, I would have pierced this arrogant brat right through with that last strike."

" Nusjuro, what are you saying? It's clearly your own weakness that's being blamed on me!"

Kaido's face darkened, and the Roar angrily.

"If you have a problem with that, let's go outside and settle it!"

"Alright, let's have a go!"

Nusjuro responded with a cold voice, not to be outdone.

Unfortunately, before they could actually start fighting, Daps's face darkened, and he shouted sternly.

"Shut up! Don't forget what our real purpose is here. Whatever grudges you two have, we can talk about them after we deal with this brat."

"It would be better to deal with this brat than to waste energy on infighting."

"To be able to cultivate such capable subordinates in just six months, you brat are definitely not to be kept alive."

"If you were allowed to continue living on this vast ocean, you might truly overturn this era."

From the moment Bai Yu appeared and was suddenly appointed as Marine Admiral, the Five Elders secretly began to observe Bai Yu changes.

Initially, the Five Elders planned to make the most of Bai Yu's abilities before any uncontrollable dangers arose.

Unfortunately, to their utter surprise, Bai Yu's growth rate was far too fast.

This was completely beyond their comprehension.

In just six months, not only did they stab the Shichibukai and behead the Four Emperors of the Sea, but they also beheaded the Five Elders.

This is utterly disgraceful for them.

If I hadn't witnessed Bai Yu's growth firsthand, after repeated fruitless attempts to provoke him...

They also refused to believe that such a monster existed in this world.

"Hmph, Daps, you're right. This brat is the biggest variable if we keep him alive. Only by killing him can we have peace."

Kaido withdrew his gaze from the Nusjuro and said coldly.

"Then, you guys cover me while I go kill that brat. I hope you won't trip me up along the way, or don't blame me for turning my back on you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kaido's massive body, which had been hovering in the void, suddenly swung up.

Unfortunately, just as he moved, Daps's voice rang out again, directly interrupting Kaido's actions.

"Wait a minute, you brat, our master has taken a liking to you!"
