"What?!"
"Blackbeard made a deal with the World Government and obtained the position of a Seven Warlord of the Sea?!"
"The subject of the deal is Ace, the commander of Whitebeard's Second Division?!"
Upon hearing this news,
Sengoku was also utterly shocked,
the bandages wrapped around his body nearly snapping.
It must be said,
the people of the Pirate World truly have thick blood,
each one skilled at doing sit-ups.
Having taken Aoki's Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion head-on,
all five of them stubbornly refused to die.
Even Sengoku, who was the most severely injured,
managed to survive thanks to the terrifying recovery power granted by his awakened Buddha Fruit.
Now, his injuries have mostly healed.
As for Garp and the others,
since Sengoku had blocked most of the damage,
the four of them didn't suffer any significant harm.
However, the final explosion still affected them,
and they are currently recuperating in the Marine hospital.
Only Sengoku, as a Mythical Zoan user,
is barely managing to handle affairs relying on his powerful recovery ability.
Regarding the World Government's sudden notification,
Sengoku couldn't help but feel uneasy.
The Marines had just been brutally beaten by that group of mysterious individuals,
and now the World Government has captured Ace, the commander of Whitebeard's Second Division.
This is forcing the Marines to go to war with Whitebeard again.
Just thinking about it,
gives Sengoku a headache.
But there's no other way.
Looking at the tasks assigned by the World Government,
Sengoku could only comply fully.
Soon, all the Seven Warlords of the Sea received the Marine's summons,
a mandatory conscription.
Those who didn't come would have their Warlord titles stripped and be arrested.
As days passed,
the Marine's movements became increasingly frequent.
All factions understood,
the Marines were about to make another major move.
Meanwhile, in the New World,
Zou welcomed several unexpected guests.
"Is this the place?"
"It seems so. The thing is in that White Whale Fish Forest~"
"Let's go! We can withdraw once we get it!"
The arrivals were none other than Obito and Kakashi from the original Third Hokage's world.
This time, everyone was divided into four groups by Aoki,
each heading to different locations storing Red Poneglyph Road Markers to retrieve them.
Obito and Kakashi from the original Third Hokage's world were assigned to Zou.
Upon arriving at Zou,
the two headed straight for the White Whale Fish Forest.
Their sudden appearance instantly alerted the Mink Tribe on Zou.
"Lord Duke!!"
"Trouble!! Enemies have invaded Zou!!"
As the ruler who governs Zou during the day,
Dogstorm received the news instantly.
He quickly led his Musketeer Squad to surround Obito and Kakashi.
Dogstorm, who had been chasing the two all along, suddenly realized that the direction Obito and Kakashi were heading in was actually the White Whale Fish Forest.
"Not good!!"
"Their target is the sacred land!!"
"Go inform Cat Viper!!"
At this moment, Dogstorm no longer cared about anything else. He urgently ordered someone to notify Cat Viper while he himself swiftly pursued Obito and Kakashi.
The entire Zou Island instantly fell into chaos.
Meanwhile, inside Whole Cake Island, the port also welcomed three unfamiliar faces.
"What a peculiar place!"
"It's actually all made of cake."
Looking at the cake island before them, Sasuke and the other two curiously surveyed their surroundings. However, their mission was to seize the Red Poneglyph Road Marker held by Big Mom's Pirate Crew.
After taking a look around, they began searching for traces of the Poneglyph.
Before the three could even start their search, a tall Biscuit Soldier blocked their path.
Staring at Sasuke and the other two for a long while, the Biscuit Soldier slowly spoke: "Who are you?!"
"Unfamiliar faces!"
In an instant, more and more Biscuit Soldiers surrounded Sasuke and the three at the port.
Sasuke was not one to wait idly. With a swift motion, his Chidori Sharp Spear pierced through the head of the Biscuit Soldier in front of him, taking it down in a single strike.
"Tch!"
"Let's hurry up and get moving!"
"No time to waste!"
Seeing Sasuke take the initiative, Kakashi Hatake and Minato exchanged a glance, understanding that there was no choice but to act now. They quickly joined the fight.
The commotion from the three's battle instantly drew the attention of the entire Whole Cake Island to the port.
"What's going on?!"
"It's an enemy attack! Brother Cracker has already led the Biscuit Soldiers there!"
"Hurry, hurry, inform Brother Katakuri!"
In an instant, the entire Charlotte Family sprang into action, and the disturbance at the port soon reached Big Mom's ears inside the castle.
Hearing that enemies had dared to attack Whole Cake Island, Big Mom almost couldn't believe her ears. Someone actually had the audacity to directly assault her stronghold.
"Kids these days are getting bolder and bolder!"
"They dare to attack my headquarters directly!"
"I'd like to see just who they are!"
Instead of getting angry, Big Mom laughed, ignoring the dissuasion of her ministers as she swiftly made her way toward the port.
Outside Wano Country, Madara Uchiha, Hashirama, and Tobirama frowned as they looked at the vast land before them.
"This place is a bit too big~"
"How do we find it?"
In response to Tobirama's question, Madara suddenly laughed, speaking with an arrogant expression: "Find it? Hmph, let them bring it out themselves!"
As Madara finished speaking, his Mangekyō eyes instantly transformed into Rinnegan. Having now fully mastered the power of the Rinnegan, Madara looked down at Wano Country below and swiftly formed a hand seal.
"Heavenly Obstruction Quaking Star!!"
The power of the Rinnegan activated instantly, forcibly pulling a meteor from space down toward the earth.
Within the once peaceful Wano Country, the sky suddenly darkened.
"Hmm?"
"Is it going to rain?"
"Why is the sky darkening?"
Under the immense shadow,
everyone raised their heads to look toward the sky,
feeling that the clouds today seemed somewhat unusual.
Under everyone's gaze,
a massive meteor instantly broke through the clouds, appearing in everyone's sight.
At the moment they saw the meteor,
Wano Country instantly fell into silence.
"Hey, hey, hey, is that a meteor?"
"It's a meteor!!"
"It's over, it's over!!! The meteor is going to fall!!"
"Help!! Save us!"
In an instant,
the entire Wano Country erupted into chaos,
everyone began fleeing frantically,
the countless chaotic shouts instantly woke Kaido, who had been resting.
"Huff"
"What's happening outside?!"
"Why is it so noisy?!"
Along with Kaido's suppressed angry questioning,
King, Queen, and Jack, all equally panicked, arrived before Kaido.
"Kaido boss!"
"It's bad!"
"Above Wano Country! A meteor has appeared that could destroy Wano Country!!"
Upon hearing this,
Kaido rushed out of the cave,
looking up toward the sky,
seeing the enormous meteor in the air,
Kaido was stunned at that moment,
why would such a huge meteor appear inexplicably.
But now, there was no time to think—
Wano Country was his territory cultivated over many years,
if it were destroyed, Kaido would truly have nowhere to cry.
"All together!!"
"Stop this meteor!"
As Kaido spoke,
he instantly transformed into a giant dragon, flying toward the meteor in the sky,
a scorching Dragon Breath instantly blasted toward the meteor.
And behind him, King and the others also unleashed their respective skills,
several slashes attacked the meteor.
Seeing Kaido and his group appear,
Madara's gaze involuntarily turned toward Hashirama and Tobirama beside him.
"Well, they've appeared~"
"The road sign, just get it from them!"
Elsewhere on a small island in the New World,
as Whitebeard's hometown,
this place was perpetually protected by the Whitebeard Pirate Crew.
Ordinary people dared not act against it.
Now, this scenic island,
welcomed three unexpected guests,
"It should be here~"
The last red road sign, Aoki didn't know its exact location,
because before crossing over, it hadn't been revealed yet.
But he knew where the previous locations were,
together with Joy Boy's Letter of Apology, placed on Fish-Man Island,
now Fish-Man Island only had Joy Boy's Letter of Apology left.
As Whitebeard, who ruled Fish-Man Island,
and moreover, as Roger's friend,
Whitebeard definitely knew the importance of the red road sign.
After the Pirate World opened,
Fish-Man Island became a transit station for pirates heading to the New World,
keeping the red road sign on Fish-Man Island was unrealistic,
so,
the last red road sign could only be in one place,
that was Whitebeard's hometown,
the place Marco would guard in the future.
When watching the series, Aoki remembered a scene where Marco once said that a great battle would definitely erupt here in the future.
In Aoki's view,
the only thing that could trigger a battle in Whitebeard's hometown was likely Whitebeard's legacy treasure, the red road sign.
Blackbeard, wanting to become the Pirate King, would definitely come to seize it.
"Well, let's search here then~"
After speaking, he led two Tsunades into Whitebeard's hometown.
