On an unknown island in the first half of the New World.

"Bolulu~~"

As Ji Guoyuan and other navies left Fish-Man Island, the contact number bug somewhere on the island also suddenly rang. Not long after, a hand pressed on the earpiece of the phone bug, and slowly picked up the earpiece and put it next to the ear.

"Already gone?"

"What's the destination!? How is this possible?"

"Hmmm! I know, I'll tell Daddy. ”

A little, the receiver was put back on the back of the phone bug, and a figure also opened the door and left the room.

The coast of the island.

Beside the beach, a gorgeous coral reef can be seen in the blue water, and the sea washes the sand on the shore when the waves are rippling.

Not far away, the sun shines through the cracks in the leaves, and the rustle of the leaves spreads throughout the coast as the sea breeze blows. In the shade of the trees in the forest, a group of people are camping and barbecuing on the coast, and the aroma of wine accompanied by the smell of barbecue wafts out of the distance.

With a smile on his face, Edward Newgate sat cross-legged on a camping cloth with his back against a huge coconut tree, surrounded by his sons, and drank happily.

During the feast, the young Rakyo danced inexplicably around the bonfire amid the cheers of his companions, and his writhing body was obviously not beautiful at all, but it attracted a burst of applause from his companions around him.

Looking at the children who were happily drinking and eating meat, Whitebeard couldn't help laughing, and then picked up the wine glass and poured a few sips.

The malt beer is paired with Saatchi's carefully prepared charcoal barbecue, which has an indescribable wonderful flavor.

The warm banquet atmosphere also made Whitebeard's heart unusually peaceful.

The reason why he went to sea was to pursue the life he is now. Being able to sail freely on the sea, when tired, he found a scenic island to stay for a while, and was able to have a lively meal with his family, at this moment, Whitebeard felt that his life was complete.

Turning his head and looking at the bright sea, Whitebeard squinted his eyes pleasantly, enjoying this rare harmony and tranquility.

"Daddy! Something happened! ”

"Daddy!"

Just as Whitebeard was about to take a small lunch break after eating and drinking, a shout came from a distance. The crew, who were immersed in the cheerful atmosphere, also stopped at this moment, turned their heads to look in the direction where the sound came from.

"Hey, Marco, what are you yelling at again?"

"You're really ruining the atmosphere of the banquet!"

Thatch stood by a grill and complained to Marco as he saw Marco speeding in, placing the roasted meat on a tray beside him.

"Ha~ I'm sorry! Thatch. ”

Marco passed by Thatch, grabbed a few skewers of barbecue, and then ran to Whitebeard's side, and while eating, he said to Whitebeard in a vague voice:

"Something happened, daddy."

"Navy. Fish-Man Island. It's on."

Marco chewed on the meat in his mouth as he talked about what he had just learned.

The others couldn't hear what Marco was saying at all, but Whitebeard looked at Marco with some astonishment when he heard this, and confirmed: "You mean Ji Guoyuanyi left from Fish-Man Island?" ”

"And the course is not to return to Dressrosa, but to the island of Ridciled?"

"That place. I remember it be"

Whitebeard touched his chin and thought about it when he heard the name Ridchiled, a name he was very familiar with, it seemed that his son had told him before, but now he had forgotten it for a while.

"Daddy, it's Kaido, the Beast Pirates, their territory."

At this moment, Marco finally swallowed the meat, and when he saw that Whitebeard didn't seem to remember, he immediately reminded.

"Oh! Right. ”

"After that kid escaped from Ji Guoyuan, he went to Reedchiled Island."

"What did you just mean that the course after Kunichi left Fish-Man Island was Reedchiled Island?"

Whitebeard looked grim, sat up slightly straight, and asked Marco. In the face of Whitebeard's inquiry, Marco nodded emphatically and said excitedly, "The Navy should be planning to make a move against the Hundred Beast Pirates." ”

"Didn't we receive news a few days ago that several warships from the Navy Headquarters had quietly left?"

"Among them is the ship of the naval hero Karp! But so far, in the first half of the Great Voyage, no sightings of Karp's ships have arrived. ”

"If you want me to see it, Karp has probably entered a new world."

"I think the navy's dispatch of Karp and Jiguo Yuanyi is definitely a big move!"

The Whitebeard Pirates have been deeply cultivated in the New World for so many years, and their power is huge, although Whitebeard himself is a person who has no ambitions and just wants to live a peaceful life with his family, but he can't stand the dreams and pursuits of his sons!

Under the banner of the Whitebeard Pirates, many things are very convenient to do, such as the intelligence network, Whitebeard doesn't have to bother himself, and his sons will report the most interesting things to him at the moment.

In today's world, apart from the pirates who are active in the new world, what is more conspicuous than the Dawn Sword Navy Branch and the Navy Headquarters?

A long time ago, the Whitebeard Pirates have been paying attention to the movements of Jikoku Yuanichi and the Navy Headquarters.

And Jiguo Yuanyi, who appeared on Fish-Man Island, was also mastered by the Whitebeard Pirates.

Ji Guoyuanyi still owes some consideration in this matter, after all, Fish-Man Island is the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates, how can they really have no control over Fish-Man Island at all? It is true that the Whitebeard Pirates do not interfere with King Neptune's administration, but the Whitebeard Pirates know nothing about Fish-Man Island.

After all, it is an important island connecting with the New World in the first half of the Great Voyage, and the sons under Whitebeard will not let go of such an important intelligence place.

"Big moves."

"Karp and Jiguoyuan, that kid, if it's the two of them. If Kaido's kid didn't know about this, I'm afraid he would be planted in the hands of these two guys! ”

"Goo-la-la-la!"

"Over the years, the Navy's hand has been getting longer and longer!"

"That's not going to work!"

After learning this information, Whitebeard thought about it a little and couldn't help laughing, a little, the smile was retracted, and he said in a deep voice.

"Daddy, what do you mean?" Marco's eyes lit up when he heard Whitebeard say this, and he asked.

"The Navy has gone too far."

"If you let it go, you don't know when you'll set your sights on us."

"Gotta make them honest!"

"Ready, ready, we're sailing!"

As he spoke, Whitebeard grabbed Cong Yunche, who was placed aside, and then stood up and shouted to everyone.

The crew members who heard Whitebeard's order were stunned for a moment, and then shouted excitedly.

"It's time to get acquainted with the Navy! The New World, this is our pirate territory! ”

"Go and meet that Jiguo Yuanyi! That guy is making waves in the New World, and I've long been upset with him! ”

Amid the cheers of the crew, the Whitebeard Pirates began to quickly prepare for sailing. And at the same time that Whitebeard got this information, the Hundred Beast Pirates located on Reedchiled Island also smelled an unusual aura.

The reason is very simple, that is, recently, there have been no foreign pirates coming to this Ridchiled Island.

As one of the three islands after Fish-Man Island and one of the gateways to the New World, Reedchilled Island is visited by foreign pirates almost every day. But by now, it has been almost ten days, and no strange pirates have arrived, and at the same time, several teams of pirates sent out have also disappeared.

This extraordinary aura made the cadres of the Hundred Beast Pirates feel a little uneasy.

In the castle in the middle of Ridchiled Island, Ember held a chart and led several cadres to knock on Kaido's door. The drunken Kaido opened the door, saw that it was Ash, and said with a smile:

"It's an ash!"

"Why are you here?"

"Are you looking for me to drink?"

Hearing this, the cadres behind Ember looked at each other, and Kaido when he was drunk, as he showed it, was very unreliable.

"Brother Kaido, there are some situations that I want to talk to you about."

Ember said in a solemn tone, hearing his solemn tone, Kaido's wine also woke up a little, and he stepped out of the way and introduced Ember and the others into the room.

Kaido's room is large, the office and bedroom are blended together, and the decorations are very luxurious, but Kaido is not interested in this kind of thing, the room is full of wine bottles, and the whole room is full of wine.

Ember walked into the room, looked at the mess in his eyes, couldn't help but sigh, kicked away a few bottles casually, sat down cross-legged on the floor, and said to Kaido while spreading out the charts: "Brother Kaido, your room is too messy. ”

"Hahahaha! Don't care, Ash! ”

"Hahahaha!"

Kaido walked around Ember and sat down, laughing when he heard his brother's complaints, not caring at all.

And Ember didn't have a lot of anything, and after spreading out the chart, he said to Kaido:

"Brother Kaido, we seem to be being targeted."

Hearing this, Kaido was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Targeted? Who is so blind-eyed? Hahahaha! ”

To Kaido, Ember now feels like telling a joke.

After these hours of operation, there are nearly 10,000 pirates and dozens of cadres in the entire Ridchilled Island, all of whom are sea thieves with bounties of more than 500 million. It's no wonder Kaido laughs.

However, Ember was not as optimistic as Kaido, and after spreading out the chart, he pointed to the sea east of Reedchiled Island, and said to Kaido:

"Here, 70 nautical miles from Ridchelid Island, we have completely lost control of it."

"Several teams have been sent out before and after, but there is no news."

"I don't think it's an accident."

"Brother Kaido, I've already inquired, that person hasn't appeared since he went to Fish-Man Island, and we can't grasp his whereabouts during this time."

Ember looked up at Kaido, his eyes full of solemnity.

"That man!" The person in the ember's mouth was the Jiguo Yuanichi who had destroyed their Hundred Beast Pirates and forced them to flee.

After the defeat in Mego Town, the Beast Pirates, who had re-established their power, kept a close eye on Dressrosa's movements.

When Ji Guoyuan Yi carried Tiger and others to "cruise" in the New World, their Hundred Beast Pirates knew about it, and then they kept an eye on it, but after Ji Guoyuan went to Fish-Man Island, they couldn't control Ji Guoyuanyi's whereabouts.

Hearing this, Kaido's wine was also half awake.

Kaido has always been quite wary of the navy, especially after the defeat of Migo Town, especially for the legendary navy, Jiguo Yuanyi.

"What do you mean" Kaido's face also sank, and he looked at Ember.

"It's possible that it's coming at us!"

In the waters east of Ridchelid Island, more and more warships are massing.

On the wide sea, there are more than 20 large warships scattered around, these warships are designed by Vegapunk, and the Navy Headquarters has built a group of warships of the highest specifications, each of which can carry nearly 300 crew members.

If the ship's warehouse is fully loaded, the people who can support the whole ship go to sea for a month do not need to go on the road to replenish.

At this time, these warships parked on the sea all put away their sails and landed their anchors, as if they were waiting for something.

The main ship leading these warships was a relatively small dog-headed warship, which looked much smaller compared to the other large warships that were huge and majestic.

On the deck of the kobold, Karp was lying on the guardrail on the side of the ship, clutching a fishing rod in one hand, looking boredly at the sea.

"Hasn't that kid come yet?"

"If you wait like this, I'm afraid the other party will find out."

"If we run away, our efforts during this time will be in vain!"

Capu cupped his chin and said in a deep voice.

Behind him, Zefa wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, combed his neat little back, and looked polite and polite, looking at the sea with his hands.

Hearing Karp say this, Zefa's eyes couldn't help but show a trace of worry, and he said in a deep voice: "They have contacted me four days ago, and they have successfully entered the new world." ”

"Based on the speed of the Dawn, it should be there in a few days."

"I just don't know if this kid is driving the warship to the maximum."

"He's been delayed on Fish-Man Island for too long, and we've come too early."

Zefa sighed lightly, then turned his head and looked in the direction of Ridchelid Island.

In the field of vision, a small black dot suddenly appeared on the blue sky.

Zefa noticed the black dot, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at the black dot with all his might.

"What's wrong, Zefa?" Karp glanced at Zefa, as if he was aware of it, and also turned his head and followed Zefa's line of sight. When he saw the black dot in the sky, Karp's pupils shrank, and he immediately shouted to Bogart, who was not far away:

"Bogart, telescope!"

As he spoke, Bogart had already hurried to Karp's side and gave the telescope to Karp, who raised the telescope and only looked at the black spot in the distance.

I saw that in the sky at this time, there was actually a black birdman in the form of a pterodactyl, carrying flames, hovering in the air with its wings fanning, looking towards the sea where their warships were assembled.

"That guy is"

"Ember of the Hundred Beast Pirates!"

Karp recognized the ember in that form, and immediately threw the telescope in his hand at Bogart beside him, and then immediately roared: "Zefa! ”

As he spoke, Karp had already quickly ripped off the big slug on his body, walked in front of Zefa in two steps, and jumped slightly, at the same time, Zefa behind him was already punching and accumulating strength, and the lilac shirt on his upper body was already tensed by strong muscles.

"Boom !!!"

In the next second, Zefa's fist directly bombarded the bottom of Karp's military boots, and in the next second, a "thunder" sounded on the deck of the dog-headed warship, and the entire warship began to tilt sharply, and at the same time, Karp's figure had already turned into a white streamer and suddenly disappeared on the deck.

“？？？”

On the horizon, Ember, who came to investigate the situation, had already noticed the movement of the navy in the distance at this moment, and when Karp and Zefa made a move, he had already seen each other's movements clearly through the telescope with his eyes.

The moment he saw the figures of Karp and Zefa, Ember had already realized that something was wrong, spread his wings, and flew quickly in the direction of Ridchiled Island.

And when Ember fled quickly, behind him, a thunderclap suddenly sounded, and he didn't dare to look back to see what was happening, the flames behind Ember suddenly disappeared, and the speed of his flight was also suddenly a little faster, and he disappeared in place in an instant.

That is, in the next second when the ember disappeared, a compressed terrifying domineering aura suddenly flashed from his original position, and the powerful domineering aura instantly submerged into the sea, setting off waves dozens of meters high.

In mid-air, Karp, whose body was slowly slowing down, maintained a fist-swinging posture and began to fall slowly, looking at the embers that quickly disappeared from sight, his face was full of gloom.

On the deck of the dog-headed warship, Zefa was holding a telescope, and after seeing Karp's mistake, he also frowned, and shouted towards Bogart:

"It's been noticed by the Hundred Beast Pirates, notify everyone, and raise anchor."

"Can't wait, march towards the island of Ridcheled, prepare to attack!"

Zefa immediately made a decision and ordered, for Zefa, a semi-retired former general, Bogart immediately straightened up, gave a military salute and hurriedly left the deck.

Not long after he left, Karp stepped back onto the deck and whispered to Zefa, "Let him run, we can't wait, Zefa." ”

As soon as Karp's words fell, he heard a "broadcast" sounding above his dog-headed warship, Zefa's orders were passed on layer by layer, and the warships around him also took anchor one after another and began to adjust their course to assemble.

Seeing this scene, Karp's face also showed a bright smile.

"I don't need you to remind me! Karp! ”

Zefa had a faint smile on his face, and suddenly remembered the days when he was young and fought side by side with Kap Sengoku.

"Hahaha!"

"It seems that you have a relegated sense of smell for fighter planes."

"Hahahaha!"

Amid the laughter, the kobold began to turn, quickly overtaking many other warships, and speeding towards the island of Reedchiled, while the rest of the warships also raised their sails and followed behind the kobold warship.

A naval fleet headed for the island of Ridchiled.

70 nautical miles, for these warships only takes more than an hour, and they can easily cross.

Ember quickly returned to Ridchelid Island and reported the situation to Kaido, who heard that it was Karp and Zefa, Kaido's face flashed solemnly, and then directly ordered his subordinates to prepare for battle.

Run?

Why run?

"Leave Zefa and Karp on the island of Reedchiled! Let the navy know how powerful our Beast Pirates are!! ”

In the square of Ridchelid Island, a pirate with a megaphone mobilized towards the pirates gathered here.

The sound of cheers and howls instantly resounded throughout the island of Ridcheled.
