APJ Chapter 594 Kaido’s Reading Comprehension

Previous ChapterNext Chapter


Seeing how well Shanks was doing made Buggy feel even worse than if he had been killed.

Even though they both started out as apprentices at the same time, Shanks has already become famous worldwide, while he ended up eating a Devil Fruit because of “Shanks’ sabotage,” which prevents him from reaching the treasures in the deep sea.

Looking at his subordinates, Buggy felt increasingly displeased, and immediately threatened them to continue working.

In this remote and poor village, Buggy, with his Chop-Chop Fruit, was almost invincible. He also had absolute deterrence over his subordinates. Under his scolding, they re-embarked on their journey to find the treasure.

The impact of this incident was far-reaching. For example, in Foosha Village, Luffy awaited the return of Shanks and others on the beach. However, Luffy’s mood change had nothing to do with the newspaper.

Although the Red Hair Pirates had all returned, Uta had not come back with them.

“Shanks, where’s Uta? Where did she go?”

“Uta has started her training because of some special circumstances. But don’t worry, she’s doing well. Maybe you’ll see her on screen soon.”

Although Shanks gave him a reasonable explanation, for Luffy, the friend who he spent so much time with was gone. A sense of loss overwhelmed him, and he ran to an abandoned windmill tower, looking at the distant coastline in disappointment.

“Heraaacross.”

Luffy’s Heracross found him following his scent.

“Beetle, your partner also left. How are you feeling?”

“Heraaacross?”

The expression in Heracross’s eyes as it looked towards Luffy changed, puzzled why this person seemed to think it had a good relationship with that Heracross.

“Alright, I’ve decided. We’ll go get them back after we’ve become stronger!”

“Heraaacross?”

Luffy couldn’t fully understand what Heracross was saying. If he did, he would know that Heracross was wondering if it had followed the wrong person.

Most of the public reacted with panic to this news. Using this incident, the Marines saw a surge in recruitment, further replenishing their ranks with new blood. Meanwhile, in the Grand Line, many old acquaintances saw news about Shanks.

On a certain island in the first half of the Grand Line, Hawkeye tossed away the newspaper. He knew his rival well; this was not something Shanks would do. However, he wasn’t interested in the specifics. He was more curious about when Shanks would leave East Blue.

Interesting swordsmen were hard to come by, and it had been a long time since he met a decent opponent.

On the Moby Dick, Whitebeard as usual scanned the news in the newspaper.

“Red Hair…So, the little brat from Roger’s ship has grown up, huh? Nowadays, Rookies are getting stronger and stronger.”

He and Charlotte Linlin belonged to the older generation of powerful pirates. Compared to them, whether it was Kaido or Red Hair, they were rookies among pirates. Of course, Kaido had already proven himself to the world with his terrifying strength.

The memory of that battle was still fresh in Whitebeard’s mind. Kaido’s strength made him feel like he was getting old. Now, with Shanks rising to prominence, he felt it even more so.

Big Mom Pirates didn’t think much of this. They had little interaction with Shanks, but Onigashima was different.

Due to Tesoro, the people of Onigashima knew exactly what happened on Elegia, leading to some terrifying things.

“Dad! Help, father has gone crazy!”

At this moment, Yamato was running for her life, especially after seeing Arceus, who had come to Sky Island’s training ground to observe Altaria’s living conditions, she ran directly behind him. This hadn’t happened in a long time; this time she was truly forced.

“Kaido, have you started the training of Conqueror’s Haki?”

Seeing the Hassaikai in Kaido’s hand, Arceus understood why Yamato ran away. The thing wrapped around it had been upgraded to Conqueror’s Haki.

“That’s not the case, but she’s falling behind too much. Haven’t you heard about the news Tesoro sent? The brat’s daughter could do such a thing at the age of 9, but she is already 16. She needs to catch up on her lessons.”

Kaido gave a brief summary.

The information Tesoro sent stated that Uta’s Sing-Sing Fruit accidentally released the sealed Demon King of Songs, nearly causing the destruction of Elegia.

Kaido simplified the process and understood it as Uta destroying Elegia, which led to the increase in difficulty of his training today.

Among peers, there was no one who was Yamato’s match, but facing a serious Kaido, she could still only get beaten up one-sidedly. Arceus even sensed the Dragon Dance’s aura from Kaido’s body.

“Don’t stop me, she is too lax. If it continues like this, she’ll be surpassed by others!”

Due to false advertising in the newspaper and Kaido’s misunderstanding, Yamato went through a terrifying and intense special training. Although Arceus intervened and the insane training lasted just a short time, people below still saw the flames appear on Sky Island.

Others didn’t pay much attention to this news, except for Olga.

She knew what the truth was, as it was clearly outlined in the information Tesoro sent back. However, he also described Shanks’s combat prowess, being able to hold his own against the Demon King of Songs in the real world.

This was Tesoro’s evaluation. They did provide assistance, but that was only in limiting the extent of the Demon King of Songs’ destruction. Even without them, Shanks wouldn’t have been defeated; it’s just that Elegia would have suffered greater damage.

“Has that red-haired brat already become this troublesome? Elizabeth, isn’t this world a bit abnormal?”

“Who knows, why bother thinking so much? Don’t you have more monsters around you?”

“It seems…to be the case. But why haven’t we seen news about that red-nose? They should be on par.”

“I don’t know, maybe he is hiding and scheming something big. I’m going to teach Isuka gliding now; you can stay here and ponder over it.”

“You still don’t understand humans, huh? If we lose to them in the future, won’t that be embarrassing?”

Seeing that Elizabeth was completely unconcerned about the matter, Olga couldn’t help but complain. However, Elizabeth then offered her a very unique solution.

“It’s simple. Just never fight with those two again in the future, then your record against them will stay at 2:0. Then you won’t have to worry.”

After saying this, Elizabeth disappeared from Olga’s view, off to be the gliding instructor.

“Well, that makes a lot of sense. I seem to have underestimated Elizabeth.”
