“Sp-Special Training?!”
Hearing Kaido say this, Queen wasn’t very happy. The reason he came to look for Arceus was to hope that he could strengthen his ability, sparing him from putting excessive effort.
The results were indeed promising—he gained several new skills and a strengthening item.
Kaido’s training, on the other hand, was far from joyful.
“Yeah, you do need some special training. No matter how useful your ability and skills are, you need to be strong yourself. The stronger you are, the stronger your skills will be.”
“With newcomers emerging recently, you can’t afford to slack off. Put aside the trivial matters, starting from tomorrow…no, let’s start today, or rather, right now. I’ll personally train you.”
Saying this, Kaido produced his Hassaikai from somewhere, twirled it in his hand, and approached Queen.
“Wait! Boss, I don’t think there’s a need to rush.”
“Hmm? Do you look down on my special training?”
“No, that’s not what I mean.”
“So, what do you mean? This is a good opportunity for me to check the results of your Haki training. I’ll also let these little ones see for themselves that their current training is just child’s play; the real deal hasn’t even started yet.”
With that, Kaido lifted his kanabo and charged towards Queen. In no time, even though Queen had a fairly proficient Armament Haki and a strengthened body, he still began to scream under Kaido’s special training.
“Sis, Sis, is this going to be our future…training?”
When they met Kaido before, the slaughter outside was mostly over, so they didn’t witness Kaido’s strength firsthand.
Although Queen was just screaming, the shattered ground and dented walls indicated it was no act.
If this was going to be their training in the future, he felt he might not survive it.
“Sis?”
Page One didn’t receive a response from Ulti because, at this moment, she was already in a daze.
“Don’t worry; Father knows his limits. He won’t use such force on us.”
Yamato, standing on the side, tried to reassure Ulti and Page One. However, it seemed to have little effect. Watching Queen being trampled on the training ground made her realize the terror of Kaido.
“Queen, you’ve seen it yourself. Even if Arceus grants you skills, it’s not enough if you’re not strong enough. You’ve clearly been slacking off lately; pull yourself together!”
“Wait! Boss Kaido, isn’t there a possibility that it’s not that I have become weaker, but you’ve become stronger?”
“Quit the nonsense. If you still have the strength to answer, it means you have some energy left. I’m increasing the intensity!”
Queen wanted to shout for help, but it was futile. Yamato’s cries for help occasionally received a response, but no one paid attention to Queen’s cries for help.
While Queen was suffering one-sided beatings, Shayna approached Arceus.
“Lord Sacred Beast, this is the information Kojiro has brought back. He believes that the development of Fishman Island is very impressive, and Tesoro shares the same view. Moreover, Mandrell has mobilized some personnel to pursue a pirate crew which recently entered the New World. It’s this year’s Super Rookie who seems to have decent strength.”
“Aren’t Mandrell and Pierman on Fishman Island?”
“Yes, they are. Beast Pirates’ base also needs to be guarded by an officer. If we just send anyone, they may not be a match for the Super Rookie.”
“It was Scotch. After being transferred back there, he happened to be patrolling nearby, so he went to help Mandrell. And this person, Lord Sacred Beast, I admire his courage.”
Although that’s what she said, Arceus heard amusement from Shayna’s words.
“What happened?”
“Take a look at this. Morgans is even calling him a hero, and the underground casinos in the New World have already opened betting on this person.”
Shayna pulled out a new newspaper. The wanted poster was in today’s morning paper, while this one was an additional special edition.
【Provoking All the Three Emperors of the Sea – The Lone Hero】
This was the person Mandrell was pursuing. Since the Whitebeard Pirates began protecting Fishman Island, even if there were pirates causing trouble, it was minor theft or mischief. Incidents causing such chaos have been very rare.
So, the Whitebeard Pirates considered it as an exception. They not only demanded their affiliated pirate crews to capture him but also dispatched the commander of the 8th Division, Namur, to pursue and eliminate him. This was because Namur was also a Fish-Man, making him the suitable choice for the task.
At the same time, that pirate crew also did something very brave. They had fled Fishman Island in a panic. Although they had managed to escape the first wave of pursuit by the Beasts Pirates, they had to throw away nearly all the supplies on their ship, so they urgently needed to replenish their supplies.
And at that time, they happened upon a transport ship loaded with fruits, thinking that they were lucky. In reality, it marked the beginning of their misfortune because it was a transport ship of the Big Mom Pirates.
The ship carried sweets acquired from an island in West Blue, considered a specialty of West Blue. Perospero had reinforced the protection of important supplies produced by the Beasts Pirates but overlooked these consumables from the outer sea.
This ultimately resulted in several younger siblings not obtaining some things on time. While it wasn’t a significant issue initially as it didn’t trigger Charlotte Linlin’s hunger pangs. However, it happened to trigger another situation: Charlotte Linlin’s maternal instincts toward children under 10 years old.
This was something that triggered periodically. Once triggered, Charlotte Linlin would transform into a gentle and caring mother. The younger siblings were upset, and he, as the eldest son, naturally bore the brunt of her scolding.
Now, the fifth son of the Charlotte family, Charlotte Opera, was also leading a team to pursue them.
In comparison, the intensity of the Beasts Pirates’ pursuit was surprisingly mild.
After being labeled the Emperors of the Sea, this was the first time someone had simultaneously offended all three pirate crews. Although Morgans didn’t know why the Beasts Pirates were pursuing them, it was no longer important.
Besides major events, he also focuses on such sensational news. So, he naturally wants to publicize this lucky hero.
The betting odds in the underground casino were based on which pirate crew would be the one to kill him. As for escaping unscathed, they consider it utterly impossible —unless he has the potential to become an Emperor of the Sea. Otherwise, there was no way to escape this calamity.
They were almost isolated and helpless in the New World. No one dared to risk offending all three—Beasts Pirates, Whitebeard, and Big Mom—by investing in a newcomer. That’s why Morgans referred to him as the Lone Hero.
Similarly, as the news spread, information about Mandrell reached Fishman Island. Holding the newspaper and bounty poster, Mandrell was contemplating how to face Rusalka.
The previous information about him has already been exposed. As soon as Rusalka sees the newspaper, everything will become clear. Paper is not easy to store in Fishman Island, but new newspapers are still available.
