“Baroque Works and the Beast Pirates clashed in a fierce battle, resulting in heavy casualties on both sides. Kaido was killed, and Baroque Works was annihilated.”
“Reports indicate that seven days ago, Baroque Works allied with the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Trafalgar Law, and Revolutionary Army Chief of Staff Sabo to attack the Seven Warlords of the Sea's Doflamingo. After killing him, they were intercepted by Drought Jack of the Beast Pirates. Jack was defeated and killed, which enraged Kaido, who then led the Beast Pirates to besiege Baroque Works, igniting a massive conflict.”
“During this battle, Flood Ken was killed, and Kaido disappeared after falling into the water. Heckler, the president of Baroque Works, along with several high-ranking members including a giant beast and Ace, also perished. Trafalgar Law died in battle, while Sabo from the Revolutionary Army managed to survive and escape.”
“Dragon appeared in the fight and engaged with the Beast Pirates; Kaido may have escaped severely injured.”
“Below are images from the scene.”
The main ship of the Beast Pirates lay shattered, its flag tattered and scattered along the edge of the island.
A giant beast lay overturned, its body covered in wounds and drenched in blood, looking utterly tragic.
Ace was sprawled on the ground with a large hole in his chest, blood pouring out.
Law's body was severed at the waist, part of it draped over a tree.
Heckler was also found with numerous injuries.
On the surface of the sea, a battleship pursued Baroque Works' vessel, which was left in ruins.
These images spread across the world, shocking everyone.
Just from the news content and photos alone, it was evident that the battle was devastating; this marked the greatest disaster ever faced by the Beast Pirates.
Some still lament the fate of Baroque Works, who dared to fight against the Beast Pirates, while others are shocked by their strength.
There are even speculations that this incident was orchestrated by Dragon.
However, most believe that Kaido is not dead and must still be alive.
...
"Wow, Mr. Xia is dead too."
Starfish burst into tears upon hearing the news. "My father has been captured, and Mr. Xia has died in battle. How could this happen..."
"Damn it, how could this be?"
Shark Star clenched his right fist, his expression filled with distress.
Mr. Xia had saved Dragon Palace and had rescued Shirahoshi twice; they had not repaid this kindness, and now he was gone.
"Brother, don't panic."
Crash Star said, "For now, we can't focus on anything else."
"That's right."
Prince Huangxing nodded. "In ten days, our father will be executed. Whitebeard has already sent us a message to prepare the troops, so we need to mobilize quickly."
"Okay."
He nodded heavily and said, "Mr. Xia is dead. For now, we can't help. We should focus on rescuing our father first."
"What should we do? Mr. Xia is dead."
Shirahoshi was still crying, her expression filled with immense sorrow.
...
"According to the information we gathered, there is a second possibility."
In the conference room, a World Government Agent concluded, "The giant beast killed Kaido, and also took down Queen and Ken, defeating the Beast Pirates completely. Doflamingo and the others are all unharmed."
"There has to be a limit to jokes."
Kizaru sat there with his legs crossed, trimming his nails as he said, "How can we believe such information?"
"Exactly."
Aokiji added, "We know the giant beast is the president. He killed Doflamingo and Jack, but according to our investigation, the former was attacked first by Law, and later possibly aided by Sabo, who appeared at the core of the battlefield. The latter might have been knocked into the sea by Jack, taking advantage of his weakness to kill him. After all, he launched his attack from underwater. So his strength cannot possibly reach the level of the Four Emperors."
"Even Whitebeard might not be able to defeat Kaido now; killing him is nearly impossible."
Sakazuki squinted and said, "Moreover, it’s even less likely that after killing Kaido, he would also defeat Ken and Queen. With such a large Pirate Crew against Baroque Works' limited numbers, how could they achieve such results?"
"The strength of the Four Emperors is undeniable," Peach Rabbit added. "Kaido has endured thousands of tortures and faced execution forty times without any effect. Therefore, this battle report can basically be deemed false."
"But..."
The World Government Agent thought about it, but also felt a sense of disbelief.
The defeat of Kaido was an unfathomable event; it seemed impossible for a giant beast to achieve such a feat.
If the giant beast truly possessed Kaido's strength, and could even defeat him, then Ace and Rosa Bon working together would have no chance of taking down the Beast Pirates. Only with the help of Dragon would there be a slight possibility.
However, the troubling part was that the information revealed that without Sabo's assistance, the giant beast had single-handedly crushed the Beast Pirates.
This news seemed particularly false.
Once the World Government Agent came forward, this possibility was immediately overturned.
"So what is the state of the battle?" Sengoku looked at everyone.
"I believe it is very likely that the Beast Pirates emerged victorious and are in relatively good condition, which is why they released the photos to pursue other objectives," Peach Rabbit said slowly.
"I don't think that's the case."
Aokiji spoke up: "I believe the Beast Pirates were defeated, Kaido was severely injured, Queen is alive, but Baroque Works suffered total annihilation."
"I think it was Dragon's appearance that killed Kaido, and Baroque Works also suffered heavy casualties," Sakazuki said slowly. "The photos and the information above were likely released by Dragon."
"All your theories are possible."
Sengoku said with some frustration, "But what about Whitebeard's plan?"
"Just do as instructed."
Sakazuki said, "Without Ace, he lacks support. We can defeat him."
"Alright."
Sengoku replied, "Then continue to make the arrangements."
"Leave it to me."
Sakazuki stood up, and everyone dispersed from the meeting.
...
"Mr. Dragon, you should know what Mr. Xia is planning."
Bastille said, "With his strength, combined with Whitebeard, he could crush the entire Navy."
"Isn't this a great opportunity?"
Dragon smiled and said, "The Navy is the strongest force of the World Government. If we can defeat the Navy, the World Government's power will significantly diminish. Moreover, with his strength, the Dragon People will surely use their National Treasure."
"So when the time comes, we..."
Sabo looked at Dragon, his expression somewhat eager.
Dragon narrowed his eyes and said, "That's right. When the time comes, we will directly attack Holy Land Mariejois and destroy the Dragon People."
"Finally, we've reached this point."
Sabo said excitedly.
"But what about Mr. Xia?" Kera, who had been silent, couldn't help but ask. "His strength is terrifying. If he survives in the future..."
"He may not be able to live," Dragon replied gently. "In front of the National Treasure at Holy Land Mariejois, it's nearly impossible for him to survive. If he does, we won't be able to restrain him."
"I understand," Kera nodded.
Sabo continued, "However, according to my agreement with Mr. Xia, before that happens, I need to carry out tasks for the Revolutionary Army and expose myself to the World Government Agents, revealing my current state."
"I've already made arrangements."
Dragon glanced at Sabo; his right eye had been replaced with a prosthetic, and his left arm was completely gone, making him look quite miserable.
...
"Old man, are we really going to cooperate with him?" Marco asked softly while standing beside Whitebeard.
"With Xiaqiu's cooperation, saving Neptune King will no longer be a difficult task."
Whitebeard looked into the distance and said, "Without him, though I hate to admit it, the situation would be dire."
"But what does he want?"
"Marco couldn't help but ask, 'If we defeat the Navy, the world will fall into chaos.'
'Perhaps it has something to do with the Revolutionary Army,' Whitebeard replied. 'But regardless, we can only let him help.'
'I understand,' Marco said seriously. 'I'll go prepare right away.'
'Go ahead,' Whitebeard waved his hand, his expression growing complex. 'Such immense power truly will appear in this world.'
...
'Everything has been arranged, President,' Heckler said earnestly as he stood before Xiaqiu.
'Very good,' Xiaqiu grinned, revealing his teeth that had already grown in, though his body remained broken and unhealed. He smiled and said, 'The day of Neptune King's execution will be the moment we present ourselves before everyone.'
'At that time, this world will surely echo your name,' Heckler said excitedly. 'You will become the ruler of the world, a symbol of the era.'
'Ruler of this world, huh?'"
Xiaqiu looked into the distance upon hearing those words.
Although this had once been her dream, and she had grown step by step toward it, she began to question if ruling this world was truly what she wanted.
"It's a bit boring," she said.
Shaking her head, Xiaqiu lay down, realizing that she felt happier when she was with Robin on the deserted island.
