"Did they let them escape, Kaido?"
Christmas hid behind the space, watching Queen and the others discuss, and asked Nico Robin.
"According to their laws, Kaido broke one of their arms and one of their legs, yet he let them escape. It seems Xiaqiu might have the upper hand."
A smile appeared on Nico Robin's face as she exchanged a glance with Christmas, both feeling the joy in each other's eyes.
Although they held onto a fantasy, they never expected that Xiaqiu could suppress Kaido.
Even though Xiaqiu was also injured, he could heal his wounds, which was no longer a secret.
"In that case," Christmas pondered and said, "let's inform Ace and the others not to prepare for an ambush on the way back but to head straight this way for an attack. We'll support from here."
"Alright."
Nico Robin and Christmas left the area, disappearing into the distance.
...
"We've received word that Kaido is critically injured and the boss has gained the upper hand."
On the edge of an island between Deserted Island and Wano Country, Heckler spoke loudly into a Transponder Snail.
"The boss has the upper hand?"
Upon hearing this news, everyone's faces filled with joy.
"That's right, according to Christmas."
Heckler slowly revealed the information they had uncovered about Christmas, looking at everyone and saying, "They want us to launch a direct attack."
"I can't believe they actually did it."
Sabo was astonished that Mr. Xia managed to suppress Kaido, which meant his strength had reached the level of the Four Emperors.
"I knew the president could do it."
Cecilia looked somewhat proud.
"So what should we do next?" Kera couldn't help but ask.
"Of course, we attack directly."
Ace's eyes burned with fierce flames. "We have no reason to wait for them to return."
After some healing, most of the injuries had improved.
As a high-end combatant, Law had already healed about seven or eight parts of his injuries by yesterday. After recovering some of his wounds, he treated himself and others, significantly speeding up their healing process.
By yesterday, Law's body had recovered to ninety percent, so they left the island provided by the Revolutionary Army and stopped between Deserted Island and Wano Country, waiting for the Beast Pirates to leave. Christmas and Nico Robin infiltrated the Beast Pirates while Ace and the others prepared to engage based on the two's Life Cards, planning to launch an attack while Kaido was weak.
Law, in coordination with Ace and Sabo, was enough to contend with Queen and the weakened Kaido.
If Kaido appeared, Sabo would handle him while Ace and Law took on Queen and Ken respectively; Sabo would have the highest chance of winning.
Especially since he had continued to hone his Devil Fruit Ability over these past few days, his strength had already surpassed that of the other two.
But now it seemed that the president held the upper hand, while the Beast Pirates had no intention of leaving.
Only Queen and Ken from the Beast Pirates remained; even with several combat teams, they were powerless against their offensive.
Moreover, the president was present.
This was the best time.
"Let's set off."
Everyone boarded the Sea Vessel, including Baroque Works, the Straw Hat Pirates, the Revolutionary Army, and Law.
The Sea Vessel slowly sailed into the distance, but Sabo gathered everyone and said, "We will arrive at our destination in about four hours. Let's communicate with Christmas to discuss the specific plan to eliminate the Beast Pirates here."
...
"Old man, take a look at this news."
On the Moby Dick, the crowd was in an uproar. Marco quickly walked up to Whitebeard and handed him the newspaper, saying, "Something's happened."
"Something's happened? There's no need to panic like this."
Whitebeard took the newspaper and focused on it, scanning through it carefully. His expression changed dramatically.
"Fish-Man Island King Neptune has conspired with a criminal organization, harming hundreds of people, and has been captured."
"This..."
Whitebeard continued to read the news, his expression growing darker.
"Fish-Man Island King Neptune conspired with Whitebeard's Pirate Crew to brutally rule the kingdom. The people's grievances are widespread. The World Government sent agents to investigate but were killed by King Neptune of Fish-Man Island in collusion with Baroque Works. They ruthlessly suppressed the rebels, killing hundreds of Fishmen and enslaving thousands of rebellious Fishmen...
The World Government captured him, and after a trial, he was sentenced to death. The public execution will take place on the twenty-second day after the World Government Conference concludes."
Whitebeard looked at the recorded sins with immense anger. All of it was fabricated; Neptune was kind and beloved by the people, so how could he possibly rule with cruelty?
The so-called rebels were the true embodiment of evil, adhering to the ideology of Fishman supremacy and harboring deep resentment towards humans.
Moreover, it was the rebels who had killed the World Government Agent.
All these crimes were nothing but lies, conjured from thin air.
"Public execution?"
Upon seeing those words, Whitebeard's furious expression softened, and he let out a bitter laugh. "I see now; I've put my brother Neptune in danger."
"Dad, what should we do?" Ace stepped forward and asked softly. Neptune King was Whitebeard's brother, and it was for Whitebeard's sake that Neptune had fallen into this predicament.
"This matter arose because of us."
Whitebeard's gaze turned sharp as he coldly declared, "We can only go to save him."
"But it might be a trap," Ace cautioned gently. "They fabricated Neptune King's crimes and announced a public execution, likely to lure you in."
Even if Neptune King let Ace escape, he wouldn't face death; at most, he would receive a ten-year sentence.
However, they had concocted lies that warranted a death sentence, making it public knowledge. Neptune didn't deserve such treatment.
They had only one goal: to attract Whitebeard's attention.
"I know."
Whitebeard sighed and said, "But I have to go. They chose this path because they are aware of the situation."
Neptune was concerned about Whitebeard's capture; if Whitebeard did not show up, his reputation would surely plummet.
Moreover, Whitebeard was a man of deep loyalty and would rescue his brothers, regardless of his reputation.
At this point, Whitebeard looked at Marco and said, "Contact Fishman Island. They are probably in a panic right now; we must prevent them from acting rashly. Tell them I will personally bring Neptune back."
"Understood."
Marco immediately went to send someone to make contact.
"They think that because I am old, they can take action against me."
Whitebeard said coldly, "But they will regret their decision today."
...
"Great Prince, you cannot go. We cannot stand against the World Government," the Right Minister exclaimed, gripping Shark Star's arm tightly.
Shark Star replied coldly, "Father has been wrongfully accused; this is a trap set by the World Government. We must rescue him."
"Opposing the World Government will only lead us to our doom," the Right Minister urged.
"We are not afraid of death," Prince Huangxing said angrily. "Allowing the World Government to place these accusations upon us is the real disgrace."
"But if you do this, it will put Fishman Island in danger," the Right Minister added.
"Don't worry."
Shark Star said, "We are underwater, and it's difficult for the Navy to reach us. Even if pirates come, with Whitebeard's protection, they wouldn't dare to do anything to us."
Prince Huangxing added, "We will let Crash Star stay behind. If both Father and I die, Crash Star will become the king of this country."
"Big Brother, Second Brother, I'm not interested in being king."
Crash Star said, "If you are willing to go, then let me come along."
"No, one person must stay."
Shark Star replied, "Crash Star, you are the youngest; stay here. Prince Huangxing and I will go. Let's go; the army is already assembled."
Shark Star and Prince Huangxing strode toward the door when a voice called out, "Great Prince, wait a moment. Whitebeard's Pirate Crew has sent a message."
"Whitebeard?"
Shark Star's expression brightened as he asked, "What message?"
"The Whitebeard Pirate Crew advises us not to act rashly."
The messenger continued, "Twelve days from now, he will personally bring King Neptune back here."
"This..."
Upon hearing this, Shark Star furrowed his brow.
"Whitebeard is one of the Four Emperors."
The Right Minister quickly added, "He is far more powerful than us. Great Prince, Second Prince, let's hold off on any actions for now and patiently wait for his message."
"We want to save Father, but it's almost impossible."
Prince Huangxing was moved and said, "If the Whitebeard Pirate Crew were to intervene..."
"You're not wrong."
Shark Star nodded and replied, "Relying solely on ourselves won't bring Father back. With the Whitebeard Pirate Crew joining us, our chances of success will increase. But we can't depend entirely on them; for now, we should hold our position and continue to contact them to see if we can collaborate and rescue Father together."
