One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 197 The Four Emperors Meet, Rifting the Sky as a Sign of Friendship

The Holy Land, the Hall of Power.

The Five Elders met again to discuss the same matters as before.

A grand feast for all the beasts.

Not long ago, the Knights of God were dispatched and made contact with the Disaster, but unexpectedly, the Disaster refused the invitation to become a god.

Even they found it hard to understand that becoming a god should be the dream of all mortals, and no one could possibly resist that temptation.

Since the recruitment plan failed, we had to find other ways to deal with the geological disaster.

However, the Disaster has been staying in the Beasts' stronghold recently, so even if they wanted to assassinate him, they wouldn't have a chance.

"Whitebeard and Big Mom have made their move."

"There are also many underground forces."

"The beasts are trying to intimidate us!"

The Five Elders' faces were grim.

Clearly, the Beasts held this grand banquet to unite various forces and put pressure on the World Government.

If they go all in and wage war against the beasts, other factions in the New World will likely take action.

This is what they are most worried about.

A single Beast isn't that scary, but the World Government's enemies aren't limited to the Beasts; pirates from the New World are also potential enemies.

"And the Pirate Empress!"

"That woman is dangerous; she mustn't fall into the hands of those beasts!"

"CP0 has investigated the suspicious information about the Empress. We can take this opportunity to probe her."

"Send CP0 there!"

"If this continues, we may find it difficult to remain uninvolved."

The five elders rubbed their foreheads in exasperation.

The rapid development of the beasts made them all feel uneasy, but the problem was that they could neither wage war head-on nor sit idly by.

dilemma.

The best approach nowadays is to wait until a geological disaster is isolated and then eliminate it with overwhelming force, but such opportunities are extremely rare.

They are truly worried!

The only good news is that the development of the pacifist is progressing smoothly, and it should be ready for official use in a year at most.

New World, Beast Fortress.

On the main wall of the fortress, the two large characters "Hoenn" are written, and the fortress is named Hoenn Fortress.

This will be the headquarters of the Groudon Group.

"It's finally completed."

Goode looked at the massive fortress, especially the numerous artillery emplacements, and his fear of insufficient firepower finally eased considerably.

He has two such fortresses!
Not only is its equipment top-notch, but it is also located in the inaccessible Calm Belt, making its defensive capabilities second only to Wano Country.

The only drawback is the lack of manpower.

The G-series naval fortresses, including logistics, require at least 10,000 troops, but Beast doesn't currently have that many troops to allocate to it.

We need to recruit more soldiers!
We don't have enough warships, keep building them!
Speed ​​appeared behind him.

"Good, various forces have successively arrived in the Land of Laborers."

"Bring them over and settle them in the port where there is no wind. We'll have them come over together after the banquet tomorrow."

Currently, the outermost edge of the Beasts' Headquarters is the Land of Laborers, the center is the Land of Harmony, and the rear is the Hoenn Fortress.

Three lines of defense from the outside in.

Infiltrating silently is virtually impossible, so the various factions can only remain in the country of laborers.

Speed ​​whispered, "Good, Auntie is here in person."

"Ok?"

Goode raised an eyebrow in surprise.

This was unexpected.

In the Land of Glory, it would be quite a show of respect if even the eldest son showed up, but for the old lady to personally come, could it be that she's here to start a fight?

"Does Brother Kaido know?"

"Don't know yet."

"Notify Kaido and tell him to deal with that old woman."

"clear."

If you want to fight, don't fight in his fortress.

Wano Country, Onigashima.

The Beast Fleet is fully prepared and ready to go.

"Lingling's here?!"

Kaido was furious upon receiving the news.

"Why didn't anyone tell me?!"

"Boss Kaido, we just found out too."

The subordinates trembled with fear. Two Emperors had met; who knew what would happen?

The key point is that they only just found out themselves.

Lord Goode has always been in charge of the Hoenn Fortress. As it is a top secret of the Beasts, only high-ranking officers on Onigashima know the inside story.

Before its completion, neither Kaido nor his three top lieutenants had been there, nor did they know the specific progress.

As Lord Goode instructed.

This is a surprise!

Surprises are meant to be revealed at the very end!
"Hurry up, let's set off immediately!"

Kaido took a big gulp of wine, his gaze gradually turning fierce.

He hadn't seen Lingling for decades.

The old grudges must be settled!

The Beasts Fleet sailed out of Wano Country and headed towards the Calm Belt, while large fleets composed of various forces were also heading towards the Calm Belt.

The two Yonko warships were lined up side by side at the very front.

The Queen Anthem and the Moby Dick!
"Mama~ Mama!"

The woman came to the front of the deck and looked at the Moby Dick next to her.

"Whitebeard didn't come!"

Several captains appeared on Whitebeard's ship, but Whitebeard himself did not appear, so he was probably not on the ship.

"The beasts are certainly making quite a grand spectacle!"

The older woman was quite dissatisfied.

This grand banquet hosted by the Beasts was even more extravagant than a tea party, and even Whitebeard sent a captain.

It's like Kaido has the upper hand over her!
The more I think about it, the angrier I get.

"Mom, look ahead!"

The eldest son, Perospero, cried out in alarm.

Thunderclouds were gathering over the sea directly in front of us.

The Azure Dragon emerged from the clouds and coiled in the sky!
It's Kaido!
The ministers were sweating profusely.
"finally come!"

The woman's face darkened.

"Zeus!"

"Yes, Mom!"

Zeus, the thundercloud, expanded in size and carried the old woman towards the Azure Dragon.

Two great emperors and four emperors confronted each other in the sky.

"Uro ro ro!!!"

The Azure Dragon roared and shrank its body, transforming into a beastman form, its feet resting on fiery clouds, supporting its massive body.

The spiked club was pulled out!
"Long time no see, Lingling!"

"It's been decades!"

The woman raised her hand, and the hat on her head transformed into a large knife.

Without the slightest hesitation, the two charged at each other simultaneously, their spiked clubs colliding with the Emperor's sword at full force!
"Crack!"

Thunder explodes!

"Look at the sky!"

All forces simultaneously raised their heads, nearly suffocating in shock.

The sky has cracked open!
The warships of the beasts sailed over.

Speed ​​held the megaphone.

"It will take a long time for Boss Kaido and Lady Big Mom to catch up. Distinguished guests, please follow me to the banquet venue first."

"Good work."

The leaders from all sides responded.

Although I really wanted to stay and watch the battle between the Four Emperors, the risk was too great; the mere aftershocks of the battle caused the sea to churn.

It's better to stay away as soon as possible.

The Beast Pirates were also shouting, "Lord Kaido, there's a deserted island to the southwest. Please go there and fight!"

"Uro ro ro!!!"

"Mama mama mama!!!"

The two Yonko roared and fought fiercely, then tacitly shifted the battlefield.

The guest fleet soon arrived at the doldrums.

"What's this?!"

Two towering watchtowers stand on the two embankments, with a wide river channel in the middle that is a kilometer wide enough to accommodate dozens of large warships sailing side by side.

At the edge of the field of vision, a large fortress could be vaguely seen.

Gazing at the enormous sea passage located within the doldrums, even these prominent figures were stunned and speechless with awe.

It's really amazing!
"Distinguished guests, please disembark!"
