Third Person POV

New Word.

...

...

In the sky, as the Straw Hat fleet traversed the clouds, advancing at full speed toward their goal, something suddenly flew past the fleet at incredible speed, continuing ahead.

A silhouette shot past the last ships, which were islands, while dinosaurs and animals glanced upward, catching a fleeting glimpse of the object thanks to their Haki.

As this same object crossed the island, moving on to the next and quickly leaving it behind, it zigzagged through the ships. Everyone watched the trail it left in the sky due to its incredible speed.

"Shishishishi..." A girl's laughter echoed as she enjoyed passing through all the ships in the fleet, being pulled by her brother, moving ahead of all the ships and performing stunts above, below, and around them. Luffy flew through the fleet, flapping his wings at high speed, carrying his sister in his arms.

Near the leading ship, a woman leaped off a vessel with serpents at its prow, floating in the sky.

"LUUUUFFFFYYYY!!!!" Hancock exclaimed, advancing to intercept Luffy mid-air. He had no choice but to catch her, as she laughed excitedly.

Luffy crossed a few more ships before finally landing on the one leading the fleet. With everyone's eyes on him, he appeared on the deck of the Black Pearl, slowing down to land, carrying Lucy and Hancock. His face was covered in lipstick marks from Hancock attacking him after he caught her.

"You're finally here, Captain!" Usopp said, approaching with a grin.

"Did you handle that issue you went to resolve?" Robin asked, stepping closer to him.

"Yes, Zephyr's plans won't be a problem for us or the New World anymore," Luffy said, pulling a small stone from his pocket. It was a trick he had learned some time ago.

"What's that?" Chopper asked curiously.

"It's Zephyr's base island. Luffy ended up shrinking the entire island..." Lucy murmured, still shocked by Luffy's ability. He had already shrunk the ships, but upon seeing the island about to take off and leave, he decided to grab the whole thing. And that's exactly what he did. He shrank it so much it fit in his pocket. He thought the documents and other resources there might be useful.

"Anyway, let's get ready. As I said before, the fleet will continue heading to Wano on its own, but we'll move ahead to take care of a few things since we need to handle another country before the war," Luffy explained, with everyone nodding, as he had discussed this with them beforehand.

"And who's going with you, Captain?" Zoro asked.

"Well, I'll take only a few people while you all organize the fleet's journey to Wano. Coming with me will be you, Zoro, my sister, Kuina, Yamato, Chouchou, Nojiko, Reiju and Lami from the crew, but Sai and the samurai will join us as well. I want everyone else to wait until we reach Wano and receive further orders," Luffy said, smiling.

"And are you leaving already, Luffy?" Nami asked.

"Of course not. First, we're having a feast!" he declared, making everyone smile.

In the end, they threw another grand party, spending a day celebrating between the flagship and the other ships while Bepo continued guiding the fleet day after day. Eventually, they departed, moving toward Wano on a different ship, with Nojiko using her explosion power to propel the ship forward faster than the fleet.

They planned to arrive a few days ahead of the fleet since they needed to organize an entire country. Luffy wanted Wano to fight for its own land and not simply have him solve everything for them. And so, they set off.

Two days had passed since Lucy had defeated Zephyr, and the world grew increasingly anxious to hear the next news from the major powers of this era, following Whitebeard's death. On this day, the first kings began to appear beneath Mary Geoise.

"So this is the city of the gods..." A prince with an admiring gaze asked, looking at the place above the Redline for the first time in his life, his eyes gleaming with greedy ambition.

He observed the houses and the Tenryuubito with eyes that betrayed his thoughts—he believed he could also be part of that world.

"Yes, my son, but you mustn't meddle with any of the gods, or we will all be killed, and our kingdom will be destroyed," his father, the king of his realm, murmured as if it were the most ordinary thing in the world while addressing his heir.

"But I want to be like them!" he exclaimed before receiving a smack on the head, something that had never happened to him before.

"Why did you do that?" he shouted, surprised, at his father.

"Because I won't forgive you if you do something stupid that costs us everything! I know you like mistreating peasants, but I won't let you get us killed because of your sadistic nature," his father replied in a stern tone, making it clear that there were limits his son could not cross.

Many other kings displayed various behaviors, but there were also those who were more serious. As the elevator platform filled with kings, King Dalton of the Drum Kingdom appeared, accompanied by an elderly woman—none other than Dr. Kureha—who walked ahead of him, looking toward the elevator leading to Mary Geoise.

The Drum Kingdom had finally returned to glory after a year, with numerous doctors emerging in the past year as the country became a small power, boasting wealth, knowledge, and even military strength. It had risen from the ashes, though no one truly knew how—not even government spies could extract anything useful.

"These people are so cruel..." Kureha muttered, feeling uncomfortable as she observed how the elevator operated—slaves hidden away were pulling it.

"Watch your words, Dr. Kureha. We can't say anything here yet..." King Dalton whispered, his tone cautionary.

"Fine..." She sighed and returned to the Marines accompanying her. "I know I'm in the bloom of youth at over 141 years old, but that doesn't mean I have to wait for you!" she exclaimed, as they sighed, somewhat accustomed to her peculiar personality during the escort mission to this place.

At that moment, the first ships from the Blues appeared. Governor Genzo arrived from the Cocoyasi Kingdom, soon followed by the Syrup Kingdom, with Queen Kaya accompanied by several bodyguards. Lastly, the Goa Kingdom ship arrived, bringing Queen Makino. Other kingdoms from East Blue were present as well, such as the Frauce Kingdom with Queen Ban Dedessinée. However, the other kings exchanged peculiar glances when they saw the first three—kingdoms that had mysteriously gained significant political and economic power in the past year, coinciding with visits from the current Yonko, Monkey D. Luffy. Makino drew the most attention, as she was widely regarded as the wife of none other than Shanks, the Red-Haired.

"I've heard that Monkey D. Luffy and even Portgas D. Ace were raised in the Goa Kingdom. It's also the kingdom of the Marine hero Garp and the revolutionary Dragon... What kind of kingdom is this?" a king remarked, intrigued as he observed the flag of one of the most talked-about kingdoms recently. The Goa Kingdom was known for its wealth, but there were no great stories of strong individuals before Luffy's emergence. Of all the Blues, East Blue had always been considered the weakest sea; however, kingdoms like Goa, Cocoyasi, and Syrup were now attracting attention, as the area had become a hub of gossip over the past year.

"So, this is the place where those guys wearing astronaut helmets live?" Makino asked curiously, pointing to the sacred city above the Red Line. "It looks beautiful from here..." she murmured in an innocent tone of admiration as she tried to get a glimpse of Mary Geoise.

"We need to be careful with them. They're quite arrogant and probably don't view us kindly after what Luffy did. After all, it's no secret that he's from Goa," Dadan commented cautiously.

"Why are you just standing there, Dadan?" Garp asked, giving her an unexpected slap on the back.

"Who the hell are you, you bastard?!" she shouted, startled and jumping in surprise before turning to look at him.

"Garp…" She trembled at the sight of him on the ship without warning and quickly shut her mouth.

"Don't just stand there! Let's get moving. We need to escort the queen to the kings' summit," Garp said. With no choice, they began walking toward the elevator, joining Queen Kaya of Syrup and the governor of Cocoyasi. They were all part of an alliance since these territories were secretly under Luffy's protection.

"It looks like they've started arriving. We're about to begin…" someone commented high up in the city, inside the castle's power room, where the Five Elders were gathered once more, reviewing reports of the arrival of each kingdom.

"We should punish the East Blue kingdoms. They are highly suspicious…" Saturn's voice carried an air of arrogance as he sat in his chair in a visibly weakened state.

"That's no reason to attack a kingdom without justification!" another Elder disagreed.

"But it doesn't matter, as what we're about to show them will be enough to make them fear us like never before and prevent them from ever challenging the World Government again," another Elder stated firmly.

"Yes. Now, we just need to begin the meeting and broadcast it through all the Den Den Mushi transmitters to those present," another agreed.

Their plans were progressing, and the ships were already sailing toward their enemies and targets.

Out at sea, a distance from the Red Line, an entire fleet of ships crossed the waters, bearing the flags of the World Government. They were laden with transmitters and high-ranking officials, all tied to the Government.

There were over 1,000 ships, all packed. Each ship carried one or two Pacifistas and had a singular objective: to demonstrate to all the kings present at Mary Geoise what would happen to those who defied the World Government—complete eradication of the Straw Hat crew and even two other Yonko.

The fleet suddenly began to split, following orders from the leaders. One portion advanced toward the middle of the sea where Wano was located, while a smaller contingent moved toward the kingdoms of Dressrosa and others aligned with Luffy.

This was the World Government's response to the Straw Hats, a preparation for their imminent destruction. Mary Geoise was fortified with equipment designed to combat meteors the Straw Hats might send.

It was, at last, the opportunity the Government saw to try to destroy them once and for all, without even relying on the Navy for this mission.

Chapter 448: Chapter 446 - Wano 01.

[Chapter Size: 1900 Words.]

Third Person POV

New Word.

...

...

Wano was a very peculiar country, with geography that defied common logic and gravity. Surrounding it, at sea level, there were various peaks encircling the country before even reaching it.

It was situated above sea level, surrounded by an imposing natural barrier formed by steep cliffs and jagged mountains, creating an insurmountable ring around it. Between these elevated walls of land, a vast current of water flowed, encircling the country like a moat, hiding its interior from the outside world. Meanwhile, those on the outside could only see Wano's waterfalls cascading down from all sides.

In the waters around the country was Onigashima, a smaller island shaped like a giant demon skull. The island, serving as Kaido's fortress, had been a hub of constant activity over the past month. The area was surrounded by over 200 ships, loaded with weapons, provisions, and soldiers, circulating incessantly, reinforcing defenses and intensifying preparations for the upcoming battle. Ships entered and exited Wano's ports directly to Onigashima, as Kaido ramped up resource collection.

At the heart of Onigashima, Kaido himself appeared somewhat changed. Despite his arrogance, he had felt the power of Luffy in their battle at Marineford. Each punch from the Straw Hat in that state had made Kaido bleed and his body collapse under the impacts. It was a kind of power that prompted an unusual reaction from Kaido: he began to train. Surprising even his own subordinates, Kaido had sporadically dedicated moments over the past year to prepare himself, eager for a rematch against Luffy. That moment was drawing ever closer.

In the country itself, the atmosphere was one of great apprehension. Even the most skeptical about the impending war began to feel the weight of Kaido's increasingly oppressive regime. Kozuki Hiyori was a woman who foresaw this war being won by Kaido and his allies, due to the prophecy her mother and even her father had spoken of, awaiting her brother's return less than a year from now. However, what she witnessed began to shake her beliefs.

The people were suffering more than ever. Even Orochi was treated like a dog by Kaido, with the Calamities themselves taking over the city. From what she heard, in the distant factories and villages, inhabitants had been forced to work harder than ever, preparing resources for the Beast Pirates and their war.

Across all provinces, starving people begged for food, but not even soldiers were present anymore to hear their complaints or to steal from them. All resources and forces were being directed to Onigashima, with the Beast Pirates' troops organizing there.

In the middle of the country, there was a small town where people resembled zombies, wandering back and forth. It had been over a month since all the food was taken from the town, and no one had brought any back, leaving them with nothing but scarcity and a polluted river from the factories to drink from.

People were so thin that their bones showed through their skin. Others lay collapsed on the ground with vacant eyes, and even corpses that couldn't endure the conditions any longer lay in the streets. Yet no one had the strength to remove them, trying instead to conserve energy. People even fell into states of madness, considering cannibalism, but all who acted on this idea were killed by fellow citizens.

The terror that had plagued Wano for 20 years only grew more intense. Nearby, there was a large hill with an abandoned castle, where the former family of Daimyō Kozuki, who ruled Wano before Kaido and Orochi's defeat, had resided.

Everything seemed calm there, despite the atmosphere of despair blanketing the country. Suddenly, a distortion in space occurred as a door began to manifest. Sai opened it, stepping out with other people.

The ship they had taken reached the skies above Wano, but after Luffy shrank the ship, Sai used his door powers to enter a separate space, allowing them to travel undetected to Wano. Despite the difficulty of detection, Luffy wanted to ensure Kaido remained unaware of their presence, so they could stir the country from within before the final battle.

The samurai, Sai, Luffy, Lucy, Zoro, Kuina, Yamato, Chouchou, Nojiko, and Lami stepped out of the door, landing in the middle of the ruined place. As they all were proficient in Observation Haki, they quickly sensed the atmosphere for the first time.

"This...!" Yamato murmured. It was her first time in Wano, and instead of smiling with excitement, she looked on in shock.

"So much negative emotion in this place..." Zoro muttered, frowning.

"How... how could they do this to these people!" Nojiko murmured with a tone of worry.

"Au..." Even Chouchou whimpered.

"..." Lami, Reiju and Kuina remained silent, while only Sai and the samurai couldn't fully grasp what was happening.

"Why... everyone should have the right to eat..." Lucy said, her voice carrying a rare tone of anger.

"Calm down. Kaido is managing this country worse than I imagined..." Luffy commented, glancing out at the city. He hadn't anticipated Wano being in such a critical condition, wondering if he should have come sooner. The situation was truly macabre.

'I'm hungry...'

'If only I could give my son some food... He doesn't cry anymore. That should comfort me, but it scares me. Has he given up? Is he even alive?'

'My hands are covered in calluses... my lungs burn from the poisonous air. But if I stop, they'll kill me, like they did to that old man yesterday. Still, maybe that would be better than continuing to breathe in this hell.'

'Mom and Dad promised they'd come back... But it's been so long. I'm so hungry I can't even remember what rice tasted like. Will I see them again? Have they forgotten me?'

'I was supposed to protect the people... but now I'm just a broken man, powerless, watching everyone around me suffer. How did I let this happen? What's left of my honor? Maybe... nothing.'

'There's nothing left to sell; no one has anything to buy. Orochi and Kaido took everything. My shop is empty, and so are my children. I just want to disappear. There's no future here.'

'I've lived too long to see my country turn into this. I wish I'd died with Oden... At least I would've died with pride. Now all I do is wait for the end. Maybe in the next world, Wano will be free.'

'I want to run, to escape this place. But where? There's no one to help me. My body doesn't respond the way it used to... It feels like hunger is eating me from the inside.'

'I heard rumors... They say the samurai will return, waiting for the right moment. Maybe, just maybe, there's a chance. I need to believe... not for me, but for my children.'

'Is there a place where we don't feel this? I thought this was how it was for everyone. Maybe this is just how the world is. But I wish, one day, I could eat until I'm full.'

'How many more minutes can my body take? They say if we work hard, they'll give us food. Lies. It's all lies. We're cattle to Kaido. But one day, even if it's my last day, I'll do something. I'll break something. I'll fight.'

'I don't cry anymore. There are no tears left to shed. Only hunger... hunger and emptiness. Maybe this is how the world ends, not with a scream, but with the silence of the starving.'

A series of thoughts began to be detected by everyone, hearing the darkest musings of the people in that place.

"Luffy..." Lucy murmured, torn between anger and complicated emotions, mostly feeling pity.

"I know... We'll fix this situation before we deal with Kaido. Don't worry about it," Luffy said as he turned his back to the city and headed into the castle. The rest of the group followed him closely, trying to ignore the dark atmosphere.

Luffy arrived at an area where, besides a part of the castle that was destroyed, there were markings with names on the ground.

"Are those graves...?" Zoro asked suspiciously.

"These are the graves of the heroes who fought nearly 20 years ago!" the samurai explained as tears began streaming down his face.

Kozuki Oden -

Kozuki Toki -

Kozuki Momonosuke -

Kin'emon -

Kanjuro -

Raizo -

Kikunojo -

Kawamatsu -

All the names were there, as everyone stood in silence, the only sound being the samurai's sobbing.

"Not all of them are dead... some reappeared here months ago," Lucius said. There were names masking the return of some to the future, deceiving Orochi, despite him having spies among the samurai.

"Why is that?" Kuina asked, puzzled.

"Because Oden's wife had a Devil Fruit that sent some of them into the future, but that doesn't matter now... The focus is on dealing with this country," Luffy said in a neutral tone. Even he couldn't summon any humor in the face of what he was feeling.

"So this is where Oden was killed..." Yamato murmured. Her voice no longer carried the fantasy of wanting to be Oden as it once did. She had embraced her femininity, yet she gazed at the sight with somber eyes. After all, she carried a desire to protect Wano, driven by her Akuma no Mi.

The Okuchi no Makami, a mythical white wolf said to be a protector of Japan in legends, was the spirit of her fruit. As it was said, Zoan fruits had their own will. Yamato's feelings toward Wano had never wavered.

Luffy sighed, turning to face everyone. "I've gathered you as a small group because we're going to begin our actions in this country subtly. That's why I called you here. Let's start our change." His gaze swept over each of them.

"We'll start with this city. From what I've noticed, there are no Kaido troops here, which gives us the freedom to act without being noticed. Even so, we must take down any Beast Pirates we encounter. Let's gather people who want to fight against Kaido, uniting all the samurai in this country. That's why we'll start by feeding the people of this city, purifying the water. We'll invade the factories, free all the prisoners, and spread this throughout the country without anyone realizing it. In the end, Kaido and Big Mom won't just face a fleet of nearly 18,000 pirates, but the rebellion of an entire nation," Luffy declared, his eyes fixed not just on his companions but on the city beyond.

"Yes..." Lucy agreed.

"Woolf Woolf!" Chouchou barked.

"I'm looking forward to dealing with some of the people who allowed the country to end up like this," Zoro said.

"This is the land of my ancestors... so let's go," Kuina added.

"We'll finally free Wano!" Yamato said with determination.

"..." Lami, Reiju, Nojiko, and Sai only nodded, while the samurai, still tearful, seemed grateful for their words.

Luffy then smiled for the first time since stepping into this place. "Alright then, let's go. It's time to begin," he said as they started to take action.
