Big Mom and Kaido Shaky Alliance

"Yeah, he is the one." Liam nodded.

"Then, I must beat him." Luffy spoke with some confidence and anger.

"Well, I am ninety-nine percent sure that he will appear in the War. Because from the start, his target was neither Whitebeard Pirate nor Ace, not even the prisoner of Impel Down."

"His target has always been Whitebeard's Devil Fruit 'Gura Gura No Mi'."

Liam spoke with a serious tone.

"Why?"

Kuma frowned and asked.

"Because Blackbeard can eat more than one Devil fruit. There is a chance that he can even eat three devil fruits. He has already chosen the Darkness Fruit, which is the strongest Logia Devil Fruit."

"Now, he wants Gura Gura No Mi, which is the strongest Paramecia Fruit. After all, he will probably target the strongest Zoan Fruit. Fortunately, among the strongest Zoan Devil Fruits, Luffy's Fruit should be at the top."

"Of course, there are still fruits like Marco's Phoenix Fruit, Kaido's Dragon Fruit, and many others, especially in the New World."

Liam explained.

His words frightened many people. Only Luffy remained calm as he stated.

"But, Haki can fight any Devil Fruit, right?"

Liam smiled as he saw Luffy not losing his confidence even a bit after hearing the plan and potential of Blackbeard.

He simply clenched his hands together and said.

"Then, I will defeat him no matter how many fruits he eats."

Somewhere in the New World;

"Boss, are we going to stop Kaido?" Lucky Roo asked while biting on his chicken leg.

"Beck!"

Shanks also looked confused as he wandered outside the border of Wano, but didn't find Kaido's shadow.

This was not what he expected. After all, he knew a madman like Kaido would definitely interfere in a war that would happen next.

"Shanks, did you forget who Kaido fought a week ago?"

Beckman sighed and asked.

"Ahh! I remember. He fought Luffy and his crew, right?"

Shanks replied.

Beckman nodded his head and answered.

"Kaido fought against Luffy and Liam. They fought for hours until Kaido had to retreat. Although it was stated that Luffy and Liam took turns to fight Kaido, they did make him retreat."

"So, imagine what Kaido would do after facing such a defeat?"

Hearing that, Shanks rubbed his head and said.

"Drink himself till he no longer feels frustrated after being defeated by two kids. Hahaha! If I see Kaido, I would definitely make fun of him for losing to two kids."

Seeing his boss's attitude, Beckman shook his head and helplessly explained.

"He would try to end their journey before they could get stronger. Attack them with his full force. But he didn't do that. Why?"

"He is afraid of me taking action." Shanks spoke with a serious attitude.

"You think too highly of yourself!"

Beckman finally couldn't bear with Shanks's shameless attitude and pulled out a sound dial.

"Mama! Mama! What made you call me, Kaido?" Big Mom spoke

"Old Hag, let's join forces together." Kaido stated his purpose instantly.

There was a long silence before Big Mom started laughing.

"Mama! Mama! You want to join forces with me, Kaido. Why do you think I would believe you? You haven't forgotten the failure of Rocks, have you?"

"That's why we only need to join forces until we finish all of our enemies. Linlin, I didn't call you to joke about this matter. Two scary kids are heading their way to Wano."

"I can defeat them. I can even kill them. But I will lose the majority of my forces in the process. My dream of starting the greatest war will fall apart. So, join forces with me."

"We will not fight each other until we finish all our enemies. After that, whoever gets the most poneglyph wins."

Kaido spoke.

There was another pause before Big Mom continued.

"And, that's your problem, Kaido. Don't forget you already owe me a favor, a very big favor. What could I possibly gain from this alliance? I have already established a stable utopia. Why would I join hands with you?"

"Nico Robin!"

When Kaido said that name, there was a big silence, followed by a sneer.

"You want to fool me, Kaido. Did you forget I gave birth to a child with Three Eyes? When her powers get awakened, she can read any kind of poneglyph. So, why would I need that girl?"

Kaido roared.

"But, you can't guarantee that, can you? Your son awakened Conqueror Haki, but he can't even use Advanced Conqueror. Is he not talented enough? He has mastered Future Sight and Awakening, right?"

"I know what you want, Linlin, but you are already way past your age to give birth. But, if you agree, I can marry my child to yours."

This time, it was Big Mom's turn to be silent.

"Besides, they will target you as well. Don't forget, you also have Poneglyph. It is better to join hands and crush them before they can join hands with Red Hair."

"If you are not serious, it is easy to miss. But don't tell me you didn't recognize the hat that Roger passed down to Red Hair, and then someone else has that Hat now."

"Whitebeard is going to die in this war. Straw Hats will make their way to the New World. Let's crush them before they can make any waves. Then, we can crush Red Hair."

Big Mom didn't reply immediately.

After a long silence, Kaido shouted.

"Linlin, give me your answer!"

"Not now! Let me try something. If I fail, I will contact you."

After that, there was a long silence. The tone dial had ended.

"This is serious."

Shanks spoke.

"It is really serious. Fortunately, Luffy and others won't come to the New World right now. More importantly, Big Mom didn't agree to this alliance immediately."

"But Kaido is right about one thing. Whitebeard will die in Marineford."

Beckman replied.

"Then, why can't we just join hands with Luffy?"

Yassop asked.

"Because they are our juniors. Wouldn't it be shameful to join hands with them?" Lucky Roo replied.

"Not because of that!"

Beckman waved his hand and took out Luffy's crew bounty papers.

"Their bounties haven't changed even after their battle with Kaido and the Admirals. The World Government wants to destroy the Straw Hats at any cost."

"More importantly, Luffy already has three powerful crew members under him. One being equal to him in power."

"With this configuration, even we can't defeat their crew easily. And, this is just a speculation based on his victory over an Admiral. We still don't know how what war played out."

"And, Luffy is still young, too young perhaps. He still has a lot of things to learn. Especially that!"

When Beckman said that, Shanks instantly understood what he meant. He also became serious and nodded.

"We can't teach him that move. But someone can. Let's contact Rayleigh and ask him about them. They should still be in Sabody, right?"

Beckman nodded.

"They are still in Sabody. As I said before, their target is Marineford. So, what do you think we do?"

Shanks thought for a moment and said.

"Let's go to Marineford. Since Kaido isn't going to disturb us, let's take a stealthy route."

Limejuice asked.

"Are we going to meet Luffy and his crew? I still remember that kid's promise. Do you think he will return the hat when you two meet?"

Shanks also smiled and said.

"He will. Luffy always keeps his promise. But that's his hat now."

"Boys, start the ship! Our destination, Marineford!"

......

During the day, Sanji, Law, and Zoro were strictly taught by Rayleigh. Zoro had already started to touch on Advanced Conqueror, especially with his Nine Swords Style.

But he still couldn't use the Advanced Conqueror Haki freely. And, using the Nine Swords Style was too stamina-consuming for him.

So, he believed continued learning Advanced Conqueror from the basics, to master its free flow in all of his sword techniques.

On the other hand, Sanji still had no clue. His desire to master Advanced Conqueror Haki was greater, especially since Zoro could use it.

But even he couldn't master it just because he wanted to. This was much harder than something he had done before.

Not to mention, this was only the second day of his training.

Soon, it was already evening, and Sanji went to the ship to cook.

He was surprised to see Liam back. He didn't talk about Germa but asked him about Reiju.

He was surprised when Liam said Kuma sent Reiju to this ship.

He also mentioned that there might be a conflict upon arrival and wanted Sanji to settle it.

Sanji agreed and went to make food.

During dinner, everyone was present, including the Straw Hat fleet, Rayleigh, and Shakky.

After having the meal, Luffy went to sleep with Robin.

But his dream started to go weird.

At this moment, a strange energy flowed out of Liam's body without him even realizing it and flowed into Luffy's body.

Suddenly, Luffy's soul was no longer in his body.
