Katakuri was somewhat shocked.
Someone could actually hide in front of him without being discovered!
Katakuri slowly turned around and saw an odd woman with white hair like a waterfall, floating quietly in the air, appearing extremely eerie.
It was Otsutsuki Kaguya.
Katakuri fully unleashed his Observation Haki, and the next moment his face turned pale. Even without exerting her Haki fully, just her body floating there gave Katakuri a feeling of helpless resistance!
At this moment…
Katakuri finally realized why Uchiha Itachi often liked to use 'god' to describe the power of Otsutsuki Kaguya and the leader of Akatsuki...
Indeed…
Although Katakuri had not yet seen the leader of Akatsuki, the power and terror of Otsutsuki Kaguya could only be referred to as godly…
BIG·MOM…
Can't be compared to the Kaguya in front of him at all!
Otsutsuki Kaguya's gaze fell on Uchiha Itachi, her brow slightly furrowed, slowly floating in front of Uchiha Itachi.
Princess Kaguya watched Uchiha Itachi, a rare tenderness appearing on her face, softening her voice in an unexpected gentleness: "Uchiha Itachi, is Hogoromo's gaze also set upon here?"
Kaguya was very aware.
Uehara Naraku, controlling Uchiha Itachi with Reanimation from behind, could use Uchiha Itachi to monitor everything happening here at any time.
Hearing Princess Kaguya's question, Uchiha Itachi's body stiffened for a second, then he slowly shook his head.
"Is that so?"
Otsutsuki Kaguya slowly shook her head, a fond but helpless smile appearing on her lips: "Lying again? I really can't do anything about you…"
"Don't waste time."
Uchiha Itachi's voice suddenly turned into Uehara Naraku's, sounding displeased: "I'm in a bad mood today, going to take a nap first…"
The next moment, Uehara Naraku's will withdrew from Uchiha Itachi's body.
Otsutsuki Kaguya's expression reverted to calm and indifferent, her gaze slowly settling on Katakuri: "Let's end this war today…"
"..."
Katakuri's face showed confusion, he furrowed his brow and murmured: "We're about three days away from Tottland Island…"
"Hmm?"
Otsutsuki Kaguya looked at Katakuri in surprise, her voice carrying undeniable arrogance: "Did you not hear Hogoromo's words? Don't waste time, tell me, which direction is that place in?"
Kaguya suddenly raised her palm, with a rare hint of severity in her voice: "We'll resolve everything here today! Hogoromo is in a bad mood, and I want to go see what happened with him!"
The next moment…
Countless figures appeared on the beach of the small island!
Katakuri's face drastically changed, his eyes fixed on the numerous figures that suddenly appeared, sweat slowly dripping from his forehead…
What kind of power does this woman possess!
No wonder this woman named Kaguya is called a god!
Among this army were many familiar faces to Katakuri, like Jack the Drought, Plague Queen, Flame Disaster King, and even Hundred Beast Kaido himself was in this army!
The entire elite of the Hundred Beast Pirates was present!
Besides tens of thousands of pirates, there were densely packed Ninja Alliance and Samurai Squad in uniform, even Katakuri was amazed at the size of this army!
Sheets of origami fluttered in the air, slowly gathering into the form of Konan beside them, a hint of puzzlement on her face: "Hmm? Have we finally reached the Totto Land?"
"Yes."
Uchiha Itachi nodded, murmuring: "This is the outer perimeter of the Totto Land Sea Region, long time no see, Senior Konan."
"Hmm."
Konan furrowed her brow, slowly nodding, and softly said: "Naraku… is not controlling your body?"
"..."
Uchiha Itachi shook his head, responding calmly: "Perhaps there's a little mess on that side, his mood is not very good…"
"Then let's quickly resolve matters here!"
Konan glanced around the surrounding people, raising her voice: "Lord Nara Shikaku, commence the plan we devised, swiftly incorporate all of the BIG·MOM Pirates' troops!"
"Yes."
Nara Shikaku nodded.
Konan's gaze fell on Hundred Beast Kaido, her voice cold: "Lord Kaido, follow Kaguya to Tottland Island, defeat BIG·MOM, and await our rendezvous!"
"Hic… no problem at all…"
Hundred Beast Kaido hiccupped, picked up his wine gourd, and began drinking again: "Actually… I can settle Linlin myself…"
Plague Queen cautiously reminded: "Brother Kaido, perhaps that's not a good thing to say, that crazy old woman is definitely not easy to deal with…"
"Shut up!"
Kaido punched Queen in the face.
As an old friend of BIG·MOM, how could he not know BIG·MOM is hard to deal with, and Queen, this idiot, is undermining him at this time?
The entire alliance quickly began to split.
Each troop surrounded inward from the outside, gradually capturing all the pirates of the BIG·MOM Pirates. They would continue to merge towards the center of Totto Land Sea Region.
Eventually, they would gather on Tottland Island.
Otsutsuki Kaguya, Hundred Beast Kaido, and Katakuri used Space-Time Ability to head to the center of Tottland Island, aiming to defeat BIG·MOM and the core members of the BIG·MOM Pirates.
This kind of thing...
It's actually not difficult at all. Katakuri, second only to Charlotte Linlin in the BIG·MOM Pirates, has already joined the Akatsuki...
On the other side.
Uehara Naraku's mood wasn't good indeed.
Because the Shampodi Archipelago hasn't seen much of the Heavenly Celestial Dragons lately, who should he go to trouble? This has really been worrying...
What's most troubling is...
When Uehara Naraku proposed to Yakushi Kabuto to find a way to send a few Heavenly Celestial Dragons over, expressing his desire to use this opportunity to go to the Impel Down Prison...
Yakushi Kabuto, this insane subordinate, agreed very understandingly and informed Uehara Naraku that aside from Warden Magellan, everyone else in the deep-sea prison Impel Down had already sided with him.
Among them...
Naturally, it included Rain's Shiryu, who was imprisoned there.
Is it really necessary to go to this prison?
Uehara Naraku thought it wasn't necessary, but another person was scheming to enter Impel Down.
Blackbeard...
Marshall D. Teach!
Marshall D. Teach, according to the plan he devised with Black Zetsu, slowly led the Blackbeard Pirates to hunt Devil Fruit users, secretly intending to build a Paramecia-Type Devil Fruit army composed of White Zetsu.
However, Teach also understood very well...
This undeveloped White Zetsu legion didn't have much combat power.
Marshall D. Teach patiently waited for over twenty years; he didn't want to miss the world war between Whitebeard and the Navy caused by him, so Marshall D. Teach wanted to enter Impel Down Prison to recruit some powerful pirates...
This matter is somewhat difficult.
Impel Down Prison is only accessible to the Navy and the Seven Warlords of the Sea; even though Teach had collaborated with Yakushi Kabuto once, he still didn't think Yakushi Kabuto would give him the chance to enter Impel Down...
Originally, after the World Government abolished Bartholomew Kuma's position as a Seven Warlord of the Sea, Marshall D. Teach thought his opportunity had come, secretly wanting Yakushi Kabuto to help him become a Seven Warlord of the Sea.
Only this identity...
Can enter Impel Down Prison!
But if he wants to become a Seven Warlord of the Sea, he must have an offering to prove his strength to the World Government, at least be a Great Pirate with a bounty of over a hundred million...
Unfortunately...
In recent years, the pirates with bounties over a hundred million in the First Half of the Grand Line couldn't afford Kakuzu's protection fee and ended up being exchanged for the bounty by Kakuzu.
Except for a group of newly active Super Rookies, but these Super Rookies aren't on the same sea route, leaving Marshall D. Teach somewhat helpless...
Therefore, Marshall D. Teach set his sights on a pirate gang on his sea route, no, or perhaps that pirate gang had been active in some area...
Art Pirates.
It is said that this pirate gang frequently appeared near the terrifying Three-sailed Ship, often opposing the Seven Warlords of the Sea Moonlight Moriah, who had a bone-deep hatred towards the Art Pirates...
According to Teach's plan, if he could deliver the almost 200 million bounty captain Deidara of the Art Pirates to the World Government, it would prove he was capable of replacing Bartholomew Kuma as the new Seven Warlords of the Sea...
Moreover...
He could make Moonlight Moriah owe him a favor.
Although Moonlight Moriah wasn't much, as a Seven Warlord of the Sea, he had some say in selecting new Seven Warlords of the Sea...
Just as Marshall D. Teach sinisterly wanted to eliminate the Art Pirates to start his Seven Warlords of the Sea plan...
Results...
The World Government announced the new Seven Warlords of the Sea candidate.
Art Pirates, Deidara.
Marshall D. Teach held the newspaper, looking at the headline showing the carefree smiling face of the blond youth, feeling utterly shattered...
At this moment...
Marshall D. Teach deeply felt the world's malice.
