Chapter 197

Although Ochoku's fame is inferior to that of Golden Lion, that guy has been a top-tier pirate in the New World for many years, and his strength has never diminished. He is definitely stronger than Golden Lion, who fought Naito before.

And the creature behind those behemoths can only be another monster!

That's too dangerous.

"Disasters always come one after another; that's just how things are."

Naito borrowed Zoro's famous quote, "Complaining is something only weak people do."

"..."

Binz's lips twitched slightly.

You think you're so great? You're so aloof.

Could it be Golden Lion?

"He just returned to the New World, and these behemoths appeared right after. The newspapers even said they jumped down from a cloud, a mobile base flying in the sky. No matter how you look at it, that man is Ain suspicious."

"That possibility cannot be ruled out."

Naito feigned ignorance, "But the specifics will depend on the CP's investigation."

"It should be a while before Borsalino arrives,"

Vice Admiral Gion's expression turned grave. "Naito, what do you think we should do?"

"Let's go to the Affiliated Nation closest to the attack first."

That's what Naito said.

I think so too.

Gion nodded in agreement. "Then, let's turn around."

The fleet then turned directly around.

Meanwhile, the monsters of the New World also turned their attention to this sea area.

"Mommy, Mommy! Is someone going to make a move against that idiot Ochoku?"

"Kurararara, is that Shiki? He's been gone for so many years, just to raise those monsters? But didn't he say he'd abandoned his original plan?"

Many people immediately linked this attack to the Golden Lion, which had just returned to the sea.

After all, the timing was too coincidental, and although it was a cloud, it was also a base for flying in the sky.

However, some people do know the inside story.

In Wano Country, on Onigashima.

"I see!!"

Kaido, the leader, gripped the newspaper, his eyes fixed on the photograph in the center, a picture of a giant tiger rampaging through the city.

"Is this what that guy World meant by 'action'?"

"It looks like they want to occupy the area between our territory and Whitebeard's."

Jin calmly said, "In that case, Ochoku's existence is the biggest obstacle. They'll probably target Ochoku directly next."

"Boss Kaido, if we let them expand unchecked, Ore Island will fall into their sphere of influence."

Queen took the opportunity to apply eye drops.

Ore Island is the island that was previously contested with Ochoku.

Queen was always somewhat annoyed that World and his group possessed technology more advanced than his own.

"Anything about that is fine!"

Kaido gritted his teeth, "Is that bastard World trying to fool me with a inferior Devil Fruit? Isn't there something much more powerful here?!"

No matter how you look at it, these colossal beasts, each tens of meters tall, are far stronger than those artificial Devil Fruit User!

They were almost comparable to the Beastmen he had bought from the World Government at Numbers expense.

The Artificial Devil Fruit I was so satisfied with before, suddenly don't seem so appealing anymore.

Kaido wished he could rush to that sea area right now, drag that guy World out, and ask him what exactly happened.

However, I had already promised not to get involved in this conflict.

Although Kaido never one to keep his word, this is still a cooperative relationship. If he were to break this agreement rashly, not only would these monsters be gone, but even the Artificial Devil Fruit would be lost.

Let's hold off for now and ask them properly after this dispute is over.

Ask about the prices of these monsters.

On Luna's side.

The expansion continued, and Zeus raced swiftly across the skies of the New World.

Yesterday, three countries were conquered, and today, just this afternoon, three more have fallen.

This is the fourth one now.

It must be said that the World Economy News Paper newspaper played a role.

Of the three countries conquered today, apart from the Fred Kingdom, the other two chose to surrender directly, without even waiting for the beasts to cause a ruckus.

However, there are also some who are very stubborn.

For example, this one now.

Upon learning of the beast attack, unlike the previous two countries that surrendered immediately, this country chose to concentrate all its troops in the city, waiting for the beast to descend and fight to the death.

Very fierce.

But it's also a pity.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Unrestrained laughter echoed through the city.

With a sweep of its thick, scale-covered tail, the lizardman smashed the dense ranks of soldiers in front of him, along with the buildings on both sides of the street, into pieces.

Whether it's bullets or shells, they can't even tickle him; they can only slightly polish his scales.

Spider-Man, with his spider legs outstretched and stepping on the houses on both sides of the street, his body spanning the entire street, also chuckled maniacally.

His appearance differed from that of his colleagues.

The difference lies in the fact that, in addition to his humanoid upper body, he also has a huge mouth on his stomach, just like Black Maria, one of Kaido's subordinates.

At this moment, a large amount of spider silk spewed out from this huge mouth, covering half of the street in front of it, and the soldiers on the street were instantly bound tightly.

"Wow, that's not fair!"

Not far away, a boar-man charging through the ranks of soldiers like a locomotive witnessed this scene and said enviously, "Why does this guy have special abilities?!"

Spitting spider silk may be a bit low-class, but it's still better than those who rely solely on their physical strength.

"Monster... a monster!!!"

The result of the three-headed monster's rampage was that the young king, who had previously been ambitious and eager to resist, was now slumped on the palace wall in despair.

And so, naturally, yet another country fell.

After easily turning the country's rulers into Hub, Luna, as usual, left the three beasts behind and returned to Zeus's back.

Miss Bakkin greeted her, "Miss Luna, news has come from Stussy that Ochoku has dispatched men, and their target is likely the Fred Kingdom."

"Is it just sending subordinates?"

Luna asked calmly, "Who did they send?"

It should be Bristone.

Miss Bakkin said.

"Bristone?"

Luna said, "Salt is on his way back, let him handle it."

Bristone was one of Ochoku's top officers, ranking below Paris the Sharpshooter was captured by Naito. Among the top officers of the great pirates in the New World, he was probably one of the weakest.

Salt should be more than capable of handling him.

"As for us, let's continue."

At the current pace, most of the countries in this sea area will be conquered by the day after tomorrow at the latest.

After all, excluding the Affiliated Nation, there are only about ten countries in total; it's just that the remaining few are farther away, so it takes longer to reach them.

After that, all that remained was the area around Hachinosu, which was occupied by Ochoku.

Well, perhaps before Salt has even dealt with Bristone, Zeus will have already arrived above the Hachinosu.

Let's go back a little earlier.

Hachinosu.

Ochoku sat in his large office chair, looking at the man in front of him. "Bristone, you know what to do!"

"Of course, boss!"

Bristone was a tall, bald, muscular man, over five meters tall, with a ferocious face and extremely thick arms.

"I will take back the Fred Kingdom! I will crush the bones of those beasts with my own hands!"

"Um."

Ochoku nodded slightly.

He still harbored some suspicion that that Shiki was behind the behemoths.

But regardless of whether it's that bastard Golden Lion or not, it's essential to reclaim his own territory first.

If he does nothing, how will he gain the respect of the people in the future?

As for why they suspected it was the Golden Lion, and why they didn't personally take action themselves...

Isn't that obvious?

Only three giant beasts remained in the Fred Kingdom. What were they doing there?

However, Ochoku was certain.

Now that Bristone has reclaimed the Fred Kingdom, it's time for the mastermind behind the behemoth to come to light.

That will be the moment when the war truly begins.

However, Ochoku was not afraid at all!

Whether they're the Golden Lion or not, if they dare to lay a hand on my territory, then they'd better be prepared to die!

Ochoku's eyes were incredibly cold.

The rampage by the behemoths has now entered its fifth day.
