One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 129 The Strongest Newcomer
[Whitebeard himself confirms, the strongest newcomer has been born!]

[The Queen has fallen in love!]

[The Whitebeard Pirates, one of the Four Emperors, have moved into the Hoenn residential area!]

[Exclusive Interview with Groudon Real Estate Company!]

For several days in a row, newspapers sold out, and one shocking news story after another broke, almost all of which were related to Goode.

Especially the title of "strongest"!

In this era, only a handful of people can be called the "strongest".

Kaido, the "strongest creature"!
Whitebeard, the "strongest man"!

Secondly, there are titles like "World's Greatest Swordsman" Hawkeye and "World's Most Beautiful Woman" Pirate Empress, which are close to the extreme.

Now there's one more strongest, personally certified by Whitebeard.

"The strongest newcomer" Goode!
Even Shanks, one of the Four Emperors who has fought the Whitebeard Pirates several times, has not received such an honor!
The world was shocked!

Coupled with his affair with Stussy and a series of recent events, Goode has become a household name worldwide.

Even in the countryside of the East China Sea, you can hear the name Goode.

"Wow, he's amazing! I'm going to beat him!"

A newsbird was passing by when a newspaper accidentally fell and landed right on the head of a rubber boy.

The Holy Land of Mary Geoise, Hall of Power.

The five elders held the newspaper, their faces grave.

In just a few months, Goode's rapid rise has put immense pressure on them, and they can no longer sit idly by.

But when it comes to beasts, they must be cautious.

"Groudan? Never heard of it!"

"Is Stussy with him?"

"Yes."

"Have her keep a close watch on Goode!"

There is very little information about Groudon, and even its abilities are only partially understood. People have been dispatched to search for myths related to Groudon.

The Five Elders are very worried that Goode will become the next Kaido.

The New World, on a certain island.

Lucky Rue, holding a newspaper, rushed anxiously to the campsite.

"Boss, look at the newspaper! You've been completely overshadowed! It's that newcomer Good who defeated Katakuri!"

"Calm down, Lucky Roux!"

Beckman lit a cigarette and tossed the newspaper in his hand at Lacheru.

They have already received the news.

Now, people are comparing Goode to their boss, Shanks, because he has only been one of the Four Emperors for two years and is the youngest of them all.

It can barely be considered relatively new.

"He's a troublesome guy!"

Shanks' expression was quite solemn.

Kaido gaining another admiral is clearly not good news; that monster is capable of anything.

But there was nothing they could do.

Life goes on as it always has to be.

Shanks shook his head and looked at Beckman.

"By the way, Beckman, is there a new player joining us?"

"He was waiting outside."

Beckman pointed outside the tent.

Shanks became interested and went outside.

Loxda, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately ran over, trembling with excitement. He had finally met his idol.

He has the same red hair!

He's a swordsman, just like him!

Loxda bowed deeply, his voice trembling with excitement: "Red-haired boss, I have always admired you. Please, I must let you join us!"

"Admire me?"

Shanks smiled.

"What's your name?"

"Loxda".

This time, Loxda was wiser and asked cautiously, "Boss, you should have heard of my name, right?"

"No."

Shanks shook his head and looked at his companions.

"Have you heard of it?"

"no!"

The officials shrugged.

Rockstar looked incredulous and pointed at himself: "It's me, Rockstar, with a bounty of 9400 million Berries. You must have heard of me!"

"I've never heard of it."

Loxda knelt down in despair once again.

Damn it, it feels so familiar!
Is he really not famous?
Shanks chuckled and shook his head, feeling a bit more favorably disposed towards Rockstar; at least he didn't seem like a bad kid.

"Haha, don't be discouraged! Welcome to our team. You can stay on the ship and be an intern for now!"

"Eh, really?!"

Lockstar jumped up excitedly.

He never expected it to go so smoothly!
Oh, and there's one more thing!
Loxda hesitated for a moment, then said nervously, "Red-haired boss, I participated in the fighting tournament on Champion Island, and someone asked me to pass on a message to you."

"who is it?"

Shanks was a little curious.

"It's that calamity-stricken Goode; he asked me to tell you this!"

Loxda, his face full of anger, scratched his hands like Goode, speaking with a mocking tone.

"Miscellaneous fish~ miscellaneous fish~ miscellaneous fish"

"."

Shanks was stunned.

His companions were all stunned. Beckman dropped the cigarette he was holding, and for a moment the camp was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

"Pfft!" "Hahahaha!!!"

"That's hilarious, boss!"

"I just got overshadowed by the other guy, and now I'm being mocked by him."

"Miscellaneous fish~ Miscellaneous fish"

"That Goode is so interesting!"

The pirates were laughing so hard they were gasping for breath, even Shanks was laughing, which made Rockstar, who was furious, spit out some anger.

Shouldn't we be angry now?

Beckman lit his cigarette again, a smirk playing on his lips.

"Captain, what do you plan to do?"

"We've been provoked!"

Shanks smiled and shook his head.

Normally, he wouldn't get angry or retaliate over such a trivial matter, after all, he is now one of the Four Emperors and it's inevitable that people will talk about him.

But he just happened to be interested in Goode.

"Hongo, go and investigate whether that Goode has left Beehive Island."

"Ok!"

Hongo, who was in charge of intelligence, was quite surprised.

It's rare to see a senior leader showing concern for a newcomer.

However, that Goode is indeed a target worth paying attention to.

Beehive Island.

Goode's office.

"so tired."

Stussy sat at his desk, processing company documents, including some issues with the Hoenn region and Groudon's development plan.

Company location selection and employee recruitment.
She has to solve everything.

Goode completely washed his hands of the business.

Fortunately, it was her; most people couldn't handle so many complicated matters. But as a result, she was treated like a beast of burden.

I'm so tired that my back aches.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Goode arrived at the office and placed a steaming cup of coffee on the table.

Have a cup of coffee to perk yourself up and get back to work.

Stussy rolled his eyes at Goode.

That jerk always makes her coffee every time he comes over!

Does she really think she can't see through his bad intentions?

"Humph!"

Stussy snorted softly, raised his arms and stretched out a big yawn, revealing a rather impressive fullness in his chest.

Goode's attention was drawn to the task at hand, and he almost forgot about the important matter.

"I'm going back to Wano Country."

"When?"

"I'll leave this afternoon."

The matter on Beehive Island has been resolved, and the cooperation with the underground emperors has been agreed upon. There is no need to stay here any longer.

Having been away for several months, he had to go back to Onigashima to make sure Kaido hadn't forgotten him. The only problem was that he hadn't found a suitable Flying Six, but that wasn't urgent.

"Stusi, I need your help with something."

"what?"

Stussy became alert.

Goode squinted.

"Don't you have a lot of girls in your shop? Find some smart and pretty ones and let them work in the neighborhood. They should be able to interact with Marco and the others as much as possible on weekdays."

"what do you mean?"

"Yes, it's what you think!"

"Ideally, you should get married within three months and have a child within a year."

"."

Stussy looked shocked.

What a shameless man! He actually wants skilled women to seduce a bunch of pirates who have never seen a woman before.

Everyone knows that the Whitebeard Pirates have almost no women.

"Good, you're so cunning!"

"Treachery? I'm just reforming the chickens!"

Goode chuckled.

Pirates are no good; how much more noble can they be than ladies? If things really work out, wouldn't it be a good thing for both sides?

"And what about you?"

Goode lifted Stussy's chin, his smile growing increasingly dangerous: "I'm about to go back, don't you have anything you want to do?"

"I"

Stussy's cheeks flushed.

That scoundrel still thinks about her.

We'll have to face it eventually.

"Go and draw the curtains!"

"Wow!"

The curtains were drawn tightly shut.

Seeing the woman trying to undress, Goode quickly stopped her.

"Don't take it off yet, let me do it!"

"I've thought about it carefully, and I still prefer the reluctant look on your face that day. Please try to look like that again!"

"."

Stussy's face darkened, and his fangs bared.

You bastard, I'll bite you!
