The golden lion's shocked lips suddenly parted into a ferocious, greedy grin.

"Monster cells and Senzu beans, these two things are practically tailor-made for me!"

Of course, in order to escape from Impel Down, Shiki cut off both of his legs.

Although a sword was used as a prosthetic leg, it was still not as convenient as the original leg.

Senzu beans can make Shiki's legs grow back.

The monster cells can greatly increase the strength of his subordinates, giving him more leverage in his revenge against the World Government!

These two major benefits were enough to ignite endless greed in the Golden Lion!

43. Prevention is worse than cure. Want magic beans? You'll have to pay extra. (Seeking flowers and votes)

Greed blinded the golden lion.

Without saying a word, he summoned his subordinates and excitedly exclaimed:

"Men, get your weapons and ammunition ready, we're going to attack Wano Country!"

Golden Lion's subordinates were completely bewildered: "Huh?"

Has the captain lost his mind? Wano Country is the territory of Kaido, one of the Four Emperors.

The men fell silent when they saw the ship's wheel stuck on the golden lion's head.

Ever since their captain was unfortunately struck by the rudder during the Battle of Eidolon with Roger, his mind has indeed become less sharp.

They often do some bizarre things.

Indigo, a scientist who primarily studies IQ, understood the Golden Lion's meaning and cautiously said:

"Captain, are you planning to go to Wano Country to steal monster cells and Senzu Beans?"

The golden lion sneered, "Of course!"

As expected, Indigo sighed inwardly.

In fact, he had already read the newspaper, but he deliberately kept it from Golden Lion, for fear that the captain might do something irrational.

Indigo advised:

"Captain, Kaido of the Beasts is now one of the Four Emperors, known as the strongest creature on land, sea, and air. He's not the apprentice on your ship anymore. We need to be careful."

The Golden Lion sneered disdainfully upon hearing this:

"What Four Emperors? What Strongest Creature? I beat them to a pulp back then!"

While the Rocks Pirates still existed.

The leader is naturally Rocks, followed by Shiki and Whitebeard, then Big Mom, Wang Zhi, and others, and finally Kaido in his youth.

Therefore, Shiki looked down on Kaido in the slightest.

Little did he know that Kaido today had not only eaten the Mythical Zoan-type Azure Dragon Fruit, but had also mastered Conqueror's Haki, making him a completely different person from before.

Indigo, however, had learned about Kaido's terrifying nature through the newspapers.

It's really hard to say who will win in a duel between their own captain and Kaido of the Beasts.

More importantly, Kaido of the Beasts has a force that far exceeds theirs.

From this perspective, the Flying Pirates are clearly at a greater disadvantage.

But Indigo also knew that the captain's decision was irreversible.

He thought for a moment, then changed his approach:

"Captain, my research on IQ is almost complete. Why don't we wait a few more days, use the IQ to make all the animals on the island ferocious, and then attack Wano Country? That way, Kaido of the Beasts will know how terrifying you are!"

Golden Lion thought Indigo's words made sense, so he agreed.

Indigo breathed a sigh of relief; he figured he could at least stall for one more day.

……

……

Ghost Island.

Luo Xing had been in seclusion in the Time Gravity Chamber for twelve days, which is equivalent to one year in the outside world.

When he came out of the pass,

When Paget greeted him, he felt an overwhelming and domineering aura rushing towards him.

Page One suddenly felt a sense of suffocation, and vaguely, he seemed to see Kaido walking towards him.

It took Peggy a long time to calm herself down, and when she looked at Luo Xing, her gaze was filled with awe she had never felt before.

"Your Highness, have you successfully mastered the Conqueror's Haki?"

Luo Xing smiled faintly: "I've made some progress."

Page Van took a deep breath.

Although Luo Xing spoke casually, he understood that the prince consort, having mastered the Conqueror's Haki technique, would be more than enough to crush him even without consuming a Devil Fruit or monster cells.

Even the strongest of the Three Calamities and the Flying Six, King the Flame, might not be a match for Prince Consort Luo Xing.

"And you, Xiao Pei, how's your cultivation going lately?" Luo Xing asked casually.

Page Van's face showed a wry smile.

"Compared to you, Your Highness, I'm like an elephant compared to an ant. But at least I've made some progress. I feel like I'm one step closer to evolving into a mythical beast."

Luo Xing patted Page Van on the shoulder: "Keep it up, Little Page."

To be honest, he once tricked Page One by saying he would help him evolve into a Mythical Beast, but he hasn't done so yet.

I still feel a little guilty when I think about it.

Luo Xing walked towards his father-in-law Kaido's palace.

Pagevan leaned closer and whispered:

"Your Highness, Boss Kaido has been in a very bad mood lately."

"what happened?"

"It's all because of that idiot Jack. When he went out to take revenge on the Navy, he accidentally leaked the information about Senzu Beans. Now the whole ocean knows about it."

Luo Xing chuckled inwardly.

As expected of the shipping magnate, he's gotten himself into trouble again.

"and then?"

"Then everyone outside went crazy, they all wanted Senzu Beans!"

Peggy counted on her fingers and said:

"There's Empress Boa Hancock, one of the Four Emperors Red-Haired Shanks, Big Mom Charlotte Linlin, the giants of Elbaf... and a whole bunch of others! Hey, even the fake World Government has secretly sent CP0 over."

Luo Xing stopped in his tracks.

A name caught his attention.

Empress Boa Hancock, the world's most beautiful woman, and her wife Yamato are both beautiful in their own way.

Luo Xing's eyes flickered slightly, and he quickly figured out why the Empress wanted the Senzu Beans. It must be to remove the Celestial Dragon's hoof from her back.

Pagevan's voice continued:

"Oh right, and Joker too! That despicable guy actually dared to use the SMILE fruit to blackmail Boss Kaido!"

Joker, also known as Donquixote Doflamingo, is a middleman in the underworld and has close ties with Kaido.

He owns a factory that manufactures artificial Devil Fruits called SMILE, and his base of operations, Dressrosa, also houses an arms exchange.

By selling SMILE fruits to Kaido and providing weapons for wars around the world, Doflamingo has made a fortune.

but,

Doflamingo should be extremely afraid of his father-in-law Kaido, so how dare he threaten him?

Peggy answered Luo Xing's questions.

"That bastard Joker got carried away with his pride after eating a monster cell and greatly increasing his strength."

"He created a hundred new SMILE fruits and colluded with a group of so-called kings of the underworld, hoping to exchange them for Senzu Beans from Kaido."

"So that's how it is," Luo Xing understood.

This is hardly a form of blackmail; at most, it's a transaction with a slightly coercive element.

Luo Xing's deep eyes revealed a thoughtful expression.

Profit can drive people crazy, especially those thugs in the underworld who even dared to steal the old lady's weird cells.

Although Wano Country is located in a strategically important area and is guarded by Kaido, Kaido's father-in-law, no one can possibly attack it.

However, if things continue like this, their Beasts Guild will undoubtedly become the target of everyone on the high seas, which will be very detrimental to their future development and expansion.

It is better to block than to open up.

Luo Xing suddenly smiled, already having a plan.
