Just as Polusalino traveled through a country called Obi, where soldiers had to drink tea even in the trenches of the front-line battlefields—Charlotte Lingling had a similar attachment to afternoon tea.

"Mamamama~ Today's chocolate buffy tastes even better than yesterday! Is it the latest formula? ”

Charlotte Lingling carefully savored the dessert that had just been eaten, and I have to say that when there was no onset of food, this female pirate was definitely the world's top foodie - she could enjoy the delicious food like a child, and she could make accurate reviews like a gourmet.

The same is true of a certain imp named Shinnosuke Nohara whom Polusalino knew before he crossed over, and even though he was only five years old, he could tell if the wasabi seasoning used in the chocolate chip cookies was flour or real wasabi......

Next to Charlotte Lingling, the crowning masterpiece of the Charlotte family, the second son Katakuri did not enjoy afternoon tea as beautifully as his mother - both because he was unwilling to show his sharp teeth in front of too many people, but also because he was not in the mood to enjoy the food at all.

That's right, compared to Charlotte Lingling, who can only act as the ultimate deterrent by force most of the time, the generals and ministers of all countries represented by Katakuri are the key people to ensure the normal operation of the country, and they can't be as "heartless and lungless" as Charlotte Lingling.

Many of the lesser-important reports of the nations, the construction of buildings on the islands, the management of the inhabitants, and the trade of goods with the major powers...... All kinds of government affairs are provoked by Katakuri and others.

Of course, just like the eldest son in the family, among the Katakuri people, the elder brother Charlotte Perospero, as the Minister of Candy, not only manages the most important candy island except for Cake Island, but also takes full charge of all emergencies - just now, after receiving a phone call, he led his eldest daughter Charlotte Comppert to leave in a hurry, and he had no intention of enjoying dessert and black tea.

And now, he is back, and Katakuri can't help but look solemn when he sees this, because Perospero shows an anxious look that Charlotte Lingling dislikes the most.

"Mom! We found the fleet of the Navy in the waters of the borders of all nations! The exact number of ships is not yet known! ”

Perospero's long tongue habitually hung outside, and he wiped the sweat oozing from his forehead and hurriedly reported.

"Oh? The fleet of the Navy? Is it because they sank their surveillance ship last time? Has it been taken care of? ”

Charlotte Lingling was completely unimpressed by her eldest son's report - since Porusalino collectively identified the four pirates, including her, as the "Emperor of Pirates", the Navy's attitude towards them has been to monitor them from a distance. This makes it possible to observe their movements without being particularly dangerous.

However, half a year ago, when Charlotte Lingling contacted scientists who had defected from the Navy and tried to restart the "Human Giantization" experiment, the flagship of the BIGMOM Pirates, the Queen Mother Anthem, made a rare sortie. As a result, the navy has increased its vigilance and dispatched several surveillance ships to follow it at close range.

There is no doubt that such a move by the Navy is very risky - at the signal of Charlotte Lingling, the top Hormiz Prometheus brazenly took action and burned all the naval warships that were caught off guard with the heavenly fire that fell from high altitude.

Charlotte Lingling's brain, which is not very shrewd most of the time, can only think about these simple things, so she still focuses on the delicious dessert and chews non-stop.

But Katakuri frowned keenly—his domineering ability to predict the future, though not yet forewarned, gave him a bad feeling. And, if the incident has been easily resolved, then why does the elder brother Perospero still look like this? He should know better than anyone that unless there is an absolute emergency, he should never disturb Charlotte Lingling's "Yaxing" enjoying afternoon tea......

Sure enough, things went wrong.

In front of the main members of the Charlotte family, Perospero stubbornly stated the reason why he and Comppert left in a hurry:

"But Mom...... All the tart scouts on our border have been destroyed! Before I rushed back, I also mobilized several pirates belonging to our banner and asked them to cooperate with the armed patrol ships deployed on the periphery of the world to block the navy's fleet......"

Charlotte Lingling finally put down the pudding in her hand and looked at her eldest son with an extremely oppressive expression:

"Tell the old lady the result directly!"

“…… It is completely impossible to contact, and it can be determined that the whole army has been annihilated......"

As soon as these words came out, not only Katakuri, but also another person in the dessert three generals, the "Biscuit Minister" Klee's face also changed slightly-you must know that the armed patrol ships arranged by the Charlotte family on the periphery of the world were all made by his ability. Whether it is firepower, defense, or even mobility, it is not inferior to an ordinary third-class naval warship.

Moreover, compared to those clumsy warships that require a lot of manpower to operate, these armed patrol ships have a certain sense of autonomy under Charlotte Lingling's powerful soul fruit ability. Combined with the affiliated pirate group under the BIGMOM Pirates, it can be said that the trickiness is close to the small fleet led by the ordinary captains of the Whitebeard Pirates......

However, such an armed patrol fleet was wiped out without even getting the news......

"It seems that the Navy has not only dispatched more powerful surveillance ships, but may even have dispatched the main fleet!"

Katakuri slammed his fist on the table, and took over the command in a deep voice, "Daifuku, Owen, you guys set off immediately and go to Coco Island for reinforcements!" ”

"Brother Perospero, let the islands to the east send more than fifty percent of the warships! Led by the Acrylic Rack, also rushed to the front! ”

"Smuji, Cheese Island to the west of Cake Island, Biscuit Island to the northwest, and Candy Island to the southwest, it's up to you and your brothers and sisters to strengthen their guard! Get ready to get closer to Cocoa Island! ”

“…… Be! ”

"Understood!"

"Leave it to us!"

With the order of Katakuri, the soul of the family, the terrifying war machine of the kingdom quickly became operational.

And the absolute core of the machine, the strongest force of the Charlotte family, one of the four emperors, BIGMOM, at this time as if he didn't care about the current situation at all, laughed and continued to eat.

It's just that smile, but it's extremely hideous, and from time to time the saliva dripping with the food residue corrodes the ground like sulfuric acid, and it smokes.

"The dessert before the war is especially delicious, Kataku chestnut ......"

……

Shortly before the Grand Fleet of the Navy began to operate, on the island of Krayingana in the Western Sea, Polusalino was a little depressed.

Although he had long known that Hawkeye, as the most individual and confident guy in the Seven Martial Seas under the king, would definitely not be so easy to invite, but he really didn't expect that this guy would blatantly flip the table and shoot before he had eaten well-

"Hey, the swordsman who said he was going to be upright, Mihawk, your disciple Gu Yinna is watching from the sidelines! The world's strongest black knife, 'Night' can cry! ”

"I've only eaten half of my chicken legs......"

Although he said so, in fact, Polusalino had already warmed up with Hawkeye with a quick sword before-the world's strongest black knife and the world's only Tiancong Cloud Sword, the shock wave generated by the collision between the two, directly caused this Crayinkana Island, which had already had a tragic war, to fall into a broken situation again.

"I looked you in the eye the whole time you were eating, and you must have sensed my movements and intentions...... This is the dignity of a swordsman! ”

Hawkeye clenched the hilt of the black knife in his hand excitedly, his rare heartbeat accelerated, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

And in the best viewing seat of this battle (the castle balcony that was deliberately avoided by Polusalino and Hawkeye), Gu Yinnawu's eyes widened, and with an expression of disbelief, she looked at Porusalino floating in the sky in a strange manner.

"This, this is ......"

Thundered!

！

The sky seemed to be covered with a layer of haze, and the sound of muffled thunder continued to sound, and an extremely domineering aura that was extremely incompatible with the obscene and lazy expression on Polusalino's face filled the sky and the earth.

In addition, the condensed and shining photons that originally constituted the Heavenly Cloud Sword were slowly flowing at this time, and like the mimicry of the Phantom Beast Species Devil Fruit, they transformed into the appearance of a translucent high-headed divine dragon under Polusalino's feet.

Even with the heart of an eagle, Tong Kong, who was shocked by Polusalino's situation, suddenly tightened:

tomato

"It's ......"

"A domineering special technique, a special technique of the Devil Fruit ability, I came up with it while I was at work, and I am not very proficient...... But okay, no matter what the result is, after the fight is over later, follow me to the headquarters to pick up the task. ”

Polusalino looked at Hawkeye condescendingly, feeling the rapid loss of physical strength, and couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

"Of course...... No problem! ”

"Come on, then! Victory-Ascend the Dragon Sword! ”

……

"Take, take!"

In the end, the mark that ended the impromptu battle between Hawkeye and Polusalino was the frivolous statement from Polusalino that the two people who did not want to destroy the island, and the attacks at the last moment were very tacit, colliding with each other, and after seeing the superiority, the point was stopped.

"You've won again, Polusalino......"

"Won but didn't win completely,"

Polusalino shook his head and scattered the Celestial Cloud Sword in his hand, "I'm not a pure swordsman, I'm just taking advantage of the Devil Fruit's ability...... When it comes to swordsmanship, I do think you're the best in the world! ”

"It's not just the Devil Fruit ability,"

Hawkeye also retracted the black knife to his back, "Your domineering ...... just now"

"Shh

Polusalino hurriedly made a silent gesture, "How can a guy like me, who doesn't have the mentality of a strong man at all, have the domineering spirit of a tyrant?" You must have read it wrong, or felt wrong, or said it was wrong! ”

“…… I didn't say anything. ”

"Ah, this ...... Hey~"

……

Polusalino went to Marinfando with a contented Hawkeye, while Guyina was left alone in the castle to help Hawkeye look after the house.

The island of Krayinkana fell into the silence it had been before.

It's just that in the dark jungle, some vicious baboons, known for their human appearance, seem to have lost their souls, and never bow their heads to look up at the sky—that is the direction in which Polusalino has left.

"Squeak Squeak ......"

(We baboons, can we be so strong?) )

……

Due to the location of the most remote and the fact that he also had a meal with Polusalino and then had a fight, Hawkeye was the slowest to arrive in Marin Fando among the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty.

However, with his arrival, the seven villains, who are currently only five people, quickly began their first gathering, and it was also the first time they participated in the battle collectively.

As a result, outside a certain office in the fortress of Marin Fando's headquarters, the two captains and sailors guarding the sea let out an exclamation like a passer-by as if they were talking cross talk:

"A bounty of 300 million Bailey, 'Empress' Boya Hancock!"

"Bounty of 81 million Bailey, 'Sand Crocodile' Sha Klockdahl!"

"The bounty is 438 million Bailey, and the 'Sea Hero' is very flat!"

"Bounty of 400 million Bailey, 'Nose Song' Brooke!"

"And although there is no bounty, it is said that the world's first-rate swordsman 'Hawkeye' Jorakol Mihawk!"

"Your Majesty's Seven Martial Seas have all gathered! Good, so strong!

”

Although the two sailors consciously suppressed the exclamation of their communication, each of these Seven Martial Seas sitting in the room could hear it clearly-especially Brooke, as the most popular guy in this area, and his own people in the navy, he even accosted the two sailors in a friendly manner:

"Yo ho ho ~ The two little brothers outside, your intelligence is outdated! Admiral Polusalino himself admitted that Mr. Mihawk was the strongest swordsman in the world! ”

As soon as Brooke's words came out, not only did the jaws of the two sailors outside almost fall to the ground in shock, but even the other three Seven Martial Seas in the room, except for him and Hawkeye, who had been keeping cold before, and had no communication with each other, also reacted a lot (of course, Jinping greeted Brooke in advance):

"Oh? It's really surprising, did you reach the top of the world in swordsmanship so quickly? ”

Lao Sha was the first to speak, and his speech was still full of pretending to be forced as always: "I just don't know who is stronger and who is weaker than the legendary 'Dragon Slayer' Ryoma?" Or are they all guys who only have fame? ”

In this regard, Brooke, who is also a swordsman, is very excited, while Hawkeye himself looks at Klockdal expressionlessly, and does not say anything - when he can use the knife, he will never move his mouth.

Immediately after Lao Sha spoke, the most normal non-human in the Seven Martial Seas, in line with the attitude of one more strong friend, congratulated Hawkeye with a smile:

"Is the world's number one swordsman? What an admirable thing! Congratulations, Your Excellency Jorakol Mihawk! ”

Hawkeye nodded slightly, in response to the other party's overtures.

Hancock was undoubtedly the last to speak, and the content of his speech was also very much in line with her character - "The world's number one swordsman? It seems that there is no one but the father among the men...... In addition to General Polusalino, there are also names worthy of the concubine's initiative to remember! Hum! ”

Hawkeye didn't answer—not that he was speechless at the empress's words, but completely indifferent.

Seeing that everyone in the room spoke on the same topic, Brooke, who was "the most popular", looked in the direction of Hancock, who was a woman, and was ready to warm up the scene again, the whole work.

"The ......"

However, a sound of footsteps sounded from the distance in the hallway, interrupting his thoughts.

At the same time as this footsteps, there was a flirtatious voice that he was very familiar with, but at this time, it was mixed with obvious malice and murderous aura, which directly scared him half to death:

"If you really want to see women's underwear, I recommend BIGMOM, one of the Four Emperors, Brooke~ That is a real powerhouse, you must like the taste, and the size of the body also ensures the size of the underwear, enough to be a quilt and shroud for you~"

"What do you think? Want to see it? ”
