Ian and the others returned, but when they were in number, there were several more people, and one of them was Plague Quinn.

Although she is an acquaintance of Sbak Jabba, even Sbak Jabbar believes that she can no longer be involved in the grievances between the Four Emperors, so as a retaliation measure for the incident of the Hundred Beast Pirates, she will be handed over to the navy by Ian.

But this time the affairs of Wano Country are only a temporary end, and no one can imagine the next development.

Because of Ian's current identity problem, it is equivalent to the balance between the four emperors has been broken, among the existing four emperors, the whitebeard pirates and the red-haired pirates are linked by the dragon hunter pirates, faintly showing signs of unity, and the previous pattern of the four emperors is completely different, and now, the dragon hunter pirates and the beast pirates have fought for the first time, Kaido captured Ace and Fujitora, and similarly, Ian also captured one of the three disasters under his command......

Although there was no king-to-king situation between Ian and Kaido, the hostility between the two had already spread with this incident.

After leaving Wano Country, Ian asked Fujitora and the others to go back to Cake Island to find Trafalgarro first, because Luo had Pebo's life card in his hand and could take them to Zou.

Drought Jack gets a life card from Plague Quinn that can go to Zou, but after all, history has changed, and Ian doesn't know if Jack will go to Zou, because no one can say whether Jack will catch Kinemon and his party first.

In any case, it would be good to let Uncle Fujitora go out first and inform Doruni of them, so that Zou could make a little preparation.

Ian himself, on the other hand, was temporarily separated from them and flew away with Plague Quinn, firstly to prepare to send Quinn to the navy, and secondly, to stop by Dressrosa to have a look.

So, leaving it aside for now, let's turn our attention to Lamla, an island in the New World!

Lemla, this is a small island with an area of only a few tens of square kilometers, there is a small country on the island, called the Kingdom of Kastom, with a population of about 100,000 people, because the country is too small, it is not even qualified to become a member of the world government, so as a last resort, the Kingdom of Kastom can only seek the protection of the Four Emperors Pirates like the rest of the New World.

And this country, nominally, accepts the protection of the red-haired pirates!

Yes, this is an island in the sphere of influence of the Red-Haired Pirates, and after the flag of the Red-Haired Pirates was hoisted, Kastom was still peaceful, and the king of the Kingdom of Kastom was in the prime of life, and under his rule, this small country was thriving and prosperous.

However, just a few days ago, the appearance of a small Devil Fruit ruined all this.

It was a strangely shaped devil fruit floating from the sea, which was picked up by a sailor who was drunk on the shore of the harbor when he woke up, and when he realized that what he had picked up was actually a secret treasure of the sea, the first thing that came to the mind of this drunken sailor was not to eat it himself, but to sell it for money!

When he excitedly contacted an auction house on the island and planned to sell the Devil Fruit, the Devil Fruit was identified as a soul fruit by the people of the auction house!

No one would have thought that the Devil Fruit of BIGMOM, which had just been killed some time ago, would appear in the eyes of the world so soon......

The trading houses that were able to get involved in the Devil Fruit Auction naturally had a background in the underground world, and after realizing that this would be a Devil Fruit of great value, the auctioneers hurriedly contacted other Devil World brokers to maximize the benefits of this Devil Fruit.

In addition to the excitement, the people at this auction house made a huge mistake, that is, they did not inform the country's patrons of the news in the first place: the red-haired pirates!

So much so that when the news of the soul fruit's realization spread throughout the underworld, things quickly got out of control.

At the beginning, there were some vicious pirates on the island, who wanted to fight the idea of this devil fruit, as soon as these people appeared, it immediately brought great pressure to the security of Kastom, although because of the red-haired pirate flag hanging on this island, these pirates did not dare to blatantly mess around, but they continued to fight and make trouble on the island, and what was even more outrageous was that in just one week, the auction house holding the devil fruit was stolen thirty-seven times, more than five times a day!

When the people in the auction house realized that this Devil Fruit was a hot potato, and they didn't care about selling it for a lot of money, and wanted to sell it as soon as possible, the Hundred Beast Pirates and the World Government actually set their sights on this fruit at the same time!

At this moment, the people of the auction house did not dare to sell the fruit casually, if the fruit was sold at this time, and then it was eaten, then I am afraid that what was waiting for them at that time was the anger of both the Hundred Beast Pirates and the World Government.

On the side of the World Government, it was clear that they could give a price of 5 billion Bailey to buy this fruit, but the people in the auction house did not dare to agree to sell it to them at all, because they had to consider the reaction of the Hundred Beast Pirates, they couldn't afford to provoke the World Government, and they couldn't afford to provoke the Hundred Beast Pirates!

Although the Hundred Beast Pirates didn't say that they would give money and planned to rob it directly, the people at the auction house wished that they would rob it, and they didn't dare to think about making money at this time, so they could only hold this devil fruit tremblingly, waiting for these bigwigs to divide the winners and losers at that time, and then give this fruit to themselves......

This is the sorrow of the little people on the sea of the New World, when they have something that is worth more than they can do, it is a sin.

The entire Kastom people of the island sensed the strange atmosphere of this country, and then, while they waited with trepidation, it was not long before a huge fleet of three forces appeared in the open sea of the island.

Needless to say, it was naturally the Hundred Beast Pirates who came after getting the news, and it was the great god of the Hundred Beasts Kaido, who was carrying the Disaster Fund and Doflamingo, and the number of ships of the Hundred Beast Pirates was not too much, but there were also more than a dozen pirate ships.

As for the other side, it is the naval fleet led by the general Yellow Ape, and with him are the two newly promoted admirals Peach Rabbit and Tea Dolphin, and the number of ships in the navy is also the largest.

The rest of the third-party forces are from the red-haired pirates!

The king of Kastom also realized that this time was a big deal, so he sent a request for help to the red-haired pirates, and as a result, the red-haired Shanks of the Four Emperors also appeared on the surface of Kastom with the Red Foss......

As Ian thought, the red-haired Shanks didn't think that a soul fruit could create a new Four Emperors like BIGMOM, but to be honest, he was also very surprised, he couldn't understand why the Beast Pirates and the World Government would attach so much importance to this Devil Fruit.

Moreover, after all, Kastom is a country sheltered by the red-haired pirates, and if someone comes to his own yard to make trouble, it is necessary for Shanks to beat them back.

So he came, too.

The red-haired pirates also take the elite route, and they don't have many troops, so although they came, Shanks still maintained due caution and didn't make rash moves.

Originally, if it was someone else, the three forces would not have been able to have some kind of stalemate, and then everyone sat down and discussed how to solve the problem of the ownership of the soul fruit, but ...... One of the parties who came was Kaido, a madman!

Don't be cowardly, just do it! This is Kaido's philosophy, and in his thoughts, there is no thought of being with the light at all.

I have to say that among all the Four Emperors, Kaido's fierce reputation is far higher than that of the other Four Emperors, and the reason is this, whether it is the Whitebeard Pirates, the Red-haired Pirates, or even the Navy, sometimes it's not that he can't beat the Hundred Beast Pirates, but it's a headache for his character of fighting if he doesn't agree with him!

So, when the Hundred Beast Pirates encountered the navy's huge and conspicuous fleet on the sea, Kaido immediately led someone A up......

On the contrary, the red-haired pirates, who only have one ship, get the opportunity to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight this time......

In the navy, the person who led the team this time was the yellow ape, originally with his unpredictable character of swaying from side to side, he should have retreated in the face of this situation, but helplessly, this time the navy's actions were directly instructed by the world government and the Tianlong people.

Because of this strong order, the yellow ape could only face it hard, which caused the two sides to fight before they saw the soul fruit.

This time, although it is also a war between the Navy and the Four Emperors, the scale is naturally compared with the Battle of New Atwall, although there are three generals on the navy's side, it is not yet said to be pouring out, but fortunately, the combat power of the Hundred Beast Pirates is not complete, but it has to be fought.

Most of the pirate ships of the Hundred Beast Pirates were destroyed by the rumbling artillery fire of the navy, but the warships on the navy's side were also destroyed a lot because of Kaido's attack.

A sea battle broke out between the two sides over the waters of Kastol, which stunned the locals and made them panic......

Shanks stood at the bow of the ship, watching the battle from afar, with a serious expression on his face.

The navy's choice to fight tough was somewhat unexpected by Shanks, he originally thought that the navy would let the Beast Pirates and the red-haired pirates fight, and then hide aside and prepare to pick up the bargain, but the development of things was beyond his expectations.

"Let's go, let's go to town!" Shanks waved his hand and made the Redfuss turn and prepare to dock, he planned to go to the city first to get the soul fruit in his hands.

But at this moment, Ben Bankman, who was smoking a pipe, handed him a telescope and said, "Look at 10 o'clock!" ”

Shanks picked up the binoculars and looked in the direction Ben Bankman was pointing, only to find that in mid-air there, Doflamingo was walking in the sky in a strange position, and was heading towards the city of Kastom.

"Looks like Doflamingo has the same idea......" Shanks sneered and said, "Then let's see who is faster!" ”

The Redforth immediately puffed up its sails and rushed towards the harbor of Kastom......

Realizing that the Beast Pirates were trying to contain the Navy and then let Doflamingo wait for the opportunity to seize the Devil Fruit, the Red-Haired Pirates sped up their pace in order to prevent them from succeeding, which caused the Red-Haired Shanks to be a little distracted.

He didn't notice a huge shadow moving slowly in the air thousands of meters above the Kastom Sea......
