"What exactly is that thing?"
Caesar's face was filled with astonishment as he looked at the enormous creature that appeared on the screen.
"It looks like a dragon," Vergo said expressionlessly.
Caesar: ? ? ?
"dragon?"
Several question marks popped up above Caesar's head. Why would such a huge dragon suddenly appear here?
Could it be a backup plan left by Vegapunk?
Thinking of this, Caesar's eyes changed.
"This should be a wooden dragon," Monet said, adjusting his glasses.
"What do you mean?"
Seeing that both of them were looking at him, Monet explained, "This man in sunglasses is an ability user."
As they spoke, Monet took out the Straw Hat Pirates' files again and found the relevant information within them.
"This person should have joined the Straw Hat Pirates in the Sabaody Archipelago."
"And there, he displayed his Devil Fruit ability, which is... the Wood-Wood Fruit!"
"At that moment, he summoned a wooden dragon!"
"Wooden dragon, huh..."
"1
Caesar took the intelligence from Monet and glanced at it, then said in surprise, "I didn't expect this guy to be a Devil Fruit user too."
"The man in sunglasses..."
'
After glancing at the names on the bounty poster, Caesar asked in confusion, "Why aren't there any names?"
What's with the code name of just a guy in sunglasses?
Is this considered a symbolic code name?
"It has no name."
Monet said, "Although this person appeared a few times a year ago, he never left his name."
Upon hearing this, Vergo remarked, "It seems he's a meticulous person as well..."
'
After thinking for a moment, Vergo continued, "How much is his bounty?"
"One hundred million."
Monet said, "The man in sunglasses, a Wood-Wood Fruit user with a bounty of 100 million Berries."
"One hundred million..."
'
Vergo immediately lost interest; those were just small fry.
The bounty wasn't even enough to warrant him taking action.
Caesar also lost interest; a bounty of one hundred million was simply too low.
"Then let's just ignore him," Caesar said. "He can't cause any trouble anyway."
These lowly fry with a bounty of 100 million Berries pose no threat to them whatsoever.
Monet smiled and nodded upon hearing this, without saying anything more.
"Oh, right."
As if remembering something, Caesar turned to look at Monet and said, "Monet, is the video broadcast okay?"
"No problem," Monet said, adjusting his glasses. "The signal is excellent."
Although Punk Hazard's magnetic field malfunctioned, it did not affect the bio-waves of the Den Den Mushi, so the signal could be transmitted perfectly.
"That's good."
Caesar grinned and said, "Now let's enjoy this wonderful scene together!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~"
"Damn it, has the poison gas already spread here?"
Standing on Teabeard's back, Nami looked at the poisonous gas in the distance with a grim expression and said, "This speed is too fast..."
'
Not long ago, the poison gas was on the other side of the mountain, but now it's here...
This is no joke!
"Perhaps it's because of the wind and snow," Mei Li guessed. "They were being pushed along by the wind from the snow-capped mountains."
"Being pushed along by the wind..."
'
Nami thought for a moment, then looked down at Mary and said, "Mary, can you use the wind to blow this poison gas away?"
"We can give it a try," Mary said. "Should I go over and give it a go?"
At her speed, she could reach the poisonous gas very quickly.
"Let's not," Usopp said, glancing at the poisonous gas. "That color looks like it's highly poisonous. What if your ability doesn't work?"
While the wind can indeed disperse the thick fog, the problem is... will Meryl inhale poison gas during this process?
He didn't want the little guy to be poisoned to death.
"That's true..."
'
Nami realized what was happening and then gave an embarrassed look, saying, "Never mind then."
Just then, a roaring sound came from behind, sounding like some enormous creature was charging towards them.
"What's that noise?" Usopp asked, puzzled.
earthquake?
Meili also showed a curious expression, then activated her ability and flew up, intending to see what was happening in the distance.
Her eyes lit up immediately after she saw what it was.
"It's Zoro and the others!"
"They're charging in on wooden dragons!"
Upon hearing this, Usopp and Nami immediately understood what was going on.
This is west Yan using his abilities to help Zoro and the others escape!
The man with the tea beard looked puzzled and said, "Wooden dragon?"
"What is that?"
As he spoke, the man with the tea beard glanced back at the situation, then his eyes widened as he exclaimed, "What a huge wooden dragon?!"
Is this the wooden dragon that the little girl was talking about?
Isn't this a bit too big?
"Hello!"
"Everyone!"
Floating in mid-air, Mary shouted, "We're here!"
"Um?"
Hearing the familiar voice, west Yan paused for a moment, then looked at the distant cliff in surprise and said, "Meili?"
Upon hearing this, Zoro walked over to Xiyan's side, looked into the distance, and said, "Nami and Usopp are there too."
"That's strange, shouldn't they be inside the cave?" Brooke asked疑惑地, "Why are they here?"
"They must have sensed something was wrong," west Yan guessed. "That's why they ran out."
"Then why is that guy with the tea beard there too?"
"I don't know about that," west Yan shrugged. "Maybe they all wanted to escape?"
He couldn't think of any other possibility.
"Let's run for our lives together?" Brook tilted his head and thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's possible."
In the face of extreme danger, enemies may unite, so it makes sense for them to flee together.
"I don't know what happened, but at least Nami and the others are safe," Sanji said.
This way, they wouldn't need to go to the shelter to rescue people first.
The others nodded in agreement, agreeing that it made sense.
"Alright, let's hurry over there." Sanji joined Xiyan and said, "After bringing Nami and the others, head to the research lab immediately!"
"Um."
'
Soon, under west Yan's control, the wooden dragon gradually changed direction and rushed towards Nami and the others.
Upon reaching their side, west Yan called out, "You guys, hurry up and get on the wooden dragon!"
"Okay!"
Mei responded, then used the power of the wind to lift the tea beard and quickly fly towards the wooden dragon.
"Bang!"
Finally, it landed steadily on the dragon's back.
"Phew~"
"We're safe now," Usopp said with a sigh of relief.
Although Tea Beard is fast, he can't keep up with the movement speed of the Western Flame Wood Dragon.
"You three look like you've just been in a fight," west Yan said, glancing at the three travel-worn individuals. "Tell me, what happened?"
Where did Luffy and his crew go?
"This matter is related to Law," Nami said.
"Luo?"
west Yan paused for a moment, then seemed to understand something and said, "Did Luffy and the others go to settle scores with that guy Law first?"
Thinking about it carefully, it's not impossible, after all, children need to be looked after...
Ok?
Wait a minute...
What about the children?
"Where are the children?" west Yan asked. "Why haven't I seen them?"
"Did they go with Luffy to cause trouble for Law?"
Nami, who was about to answer Xiyan's previous question, paused for a moment upon hearing this, then said with a hint of helplessness:
T
Of course not.
"The children have been taken away by that guy named Caesar."
"They were taken away?"
Kin'emon, who had come closer, asked in confusion, "What exactly happened?"
"You are... Oh, you are that samurai."
"That's right, I am a samurai with a complete body." Kin'emon nodded honestly, then looked at Nami without saying a word, waiting for her answer.
"Just a short while ago, Caesar came to the place where we were hiding," Nami said. "And then he attacked the three of us."
"The three of us were no match for him, so..."
'
Upon hearing Nami's explanation, the group immediately understood that they had encountered a Logia-type Devil Fruit user.
That's true, the three of them aren't very imposing, so it's normal that they couldn't beat that guy.
"That doesn't make sense either," Brook said. "Shouldn't Luffy and the others be with you?"
Why was that Logia-type Devil Fruit user allowed to succeed?
"They're not here," Usopp explained. "Luffy and the others went to help Law catch people."
I just don't know why Luffy and his crew didn't encounter Caesar.
Perhaps... they just missed each other?
It is not impossible.
"Help Luo?"
Sanji asked, puzzled, "What do you mean?"
"Why did you help that bastard catch people?"
Isn't that guy an enemy to them?
"Not long ago, Luffy met this guy Law and then formed an alliance with him," Usopp explained. "That's why Luffy helped him out."
"An alliance?!"
Sanji looked at Usopp with a face full of question marks, feeling that he had received a lot of information this time.
"Why did you form an alliance?" west Yan Zhou Zhen frowned as he looked at Usopp and said, "Isn't Law the kind of guy who would attack our partners?"
Although it was just a matter of swapping souls, no real harm was caused.
But... even so, it's still a provocation against the Straw Hat Pirates!
"Because Law gave Luffy a suggestion," Nami said. "Law said he had a way to deal with Kaido of the Beasts and asked Luffy if he would like to form an alliance with him."
"So Luffy agreed."
After saying that, Nami paused for a moment, then continued, "I think... part of the reason is because of Perona."
Perona was looking for Moria, who might be with Kaido of the Beasts. In addition, Luffy was destined to become the Pirate King and would inevitably clash with the Four Emperors sooner or later, so she agreed.
"I see..." Sanji grinned. "Luffy is definitely a reasonable guy!"
Clearly, Sanji also agreed with Luffy's words.
As for the matter of the other party replacing his body with a different soul?
These are minor issues; at worst, we can just beat that guy up.
Zoro's eyes flickered for a moment before he said, "Since this is Luffy's decision, I have no objection."
"Yohohohoho~"
"I don't have any objections either," Brooke said with a smile.
Luffy, as the captain, has already made his decision; what else can he say?
Usopp, who had overheard the three men's words, immediately showed a surprised expression.
He really didn't expect these three guys to agree so quickly; it was somewhat within his expectations.
Then, Usopp looked at Xiyan and said, "What are your thoughts?"
If west Yan disagrees, he will try to persuade him.
"Of course I agree," west Yan grinned. "After all... I received a message from Moria."
"What do you mean?" Usopp asked, puzzled.
"Based on intelligence analysis, Moria has most likely been taken away by Kaido," west Yan said.
While it's not 100% confirmed, it's highly likely that Kaido did it.
"real?!"
Nami immediately looked surprised and said, "Moria has really been taken away by Kaido."
So, the once invincible Shichibukai really was taken away by Kaido of the Beasts?!
"The possibility is very high." west Yan nodded and said, "So... no matter what, we have to go to Kaido's place."
This is also why he agreed to form an alliance with Luffy.
Of course, we can't forget what Law did.
So west Yan was thinking about whether he should find an opportunity to beat him up later.
"Looks like we really have to go." Usopp nodded, then looked scared and said, "I wonder how strong that guy is."
Could he be on the same level as a Navy Admiral?
Fighting someone like that would be extremely dangerous!
"No matter how strong he is, it's not your place to fight him." west Yan rolled his eyes at Usopp and said, "Luffy will take care of him."
Kaido of the Beasts is naturally someone that Luffy, the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, is tasked with dealing with.
Usopp blinked upon hearing this, and it did seem to make sense.
Thinking about this, Usopp calmed down a bit.
Kaido of the Beasts...
Kin'emon, who had witnessed all of these guys' reactions, remained silent. He truly hadn't expected this group of pirates to dare to target Kaido of the Beasts.
Is it just youthful arrogance, or do they truly possess the capability?!
"Should we communicate with them about Kaido of the Beasts?" Kin'emon thought to himself.
After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, isn't that right?
Moreover, the other party was willing to risk their life to save him, so...
Thinking of this, Kin'emon wanted to tell Xiyan and the others about Kaido of the Beasts.
But when Kin'emon thought about how Momonosuke hadn't been rescued yet, he fell silent.
Upon closer examination, he was merely a retainer and did not possess the qualifications to form alliances with others.
It seems we can only discuss this matter after rescuing the young master.
Having grasped the crux of the matter, Kin'emon abandoned the idea of communicating about it now.
Anyway, this matter isn't urgent. Let's rescue the young master first.
but..
Even if the young master agrees to form an alliance with them, we will know very little. Kin'emon sighed inwardly.
After all, they had traveled 20 years to reach this point and were unaware of what had happened in Wano Country during those two decades, so they couldn't provide much useful information.
Thinking of this, Kin'emon sighed helplessly.
"Um?"
Sanji, noticing Kin'emon's expression, subconsciously frowned.
What is this guy thinking?
