A small island in New World.
Kaido, one of the Four Emperors, failed in his suicide attempt once again.
In a massive pit, Kaido lay buried beneath rocks and didn't get up until a while later.
Realizing that he was not hurt at all, he shook his head in disappointment.
Then he grabbed the wine gourd in his hands and took a long sip.
As the wine in the gourd was empty, a flush appeared on Kaido's face and his steps became unsteady.
After drinking the last drop of wine.
He leaped into the air, and in a sudden transformation, he turned into a blue dragon.
Thick dark clouds swirled together.
The colossal dragon's body was concealed within the dark clouds, emanating a formidable aura.
The dragon's enormous eyes glowed red, fixating on the men below with a hint of malevolence.
"Hick~"
The person below trembled, their face filled with fear.
"Damn that Akagami bastard! How dare he try to stop me! Such audacity!"
In a drunken stupor, Kaido suddenly recalled something and let out a roaring bellow.
The dragon's body rolled, and the turbulent dark clouds scattered.
He was furious now!
If it weren't for the interference of the Red-haired Shanks, he would have claimed Whitebeard's territory as his own
At that time, the Beast Pirates would have become the strongest force in the New World.
But unfortunately, Shanks appeared and thwarted his plans, forcing him to abandon the idea of seizing Whitebeard's territory.
That made Kaido extremely angry.
But due to his drunken state, he hadn't read the news.
Because if he were to read the news, it would surely infuriate him even more.

Wholecake Island
Throne Room at the Whole Cake Chateu
When Big Mom heard the news about the outcome of the Summit War at Marineford
Silence fell, and a heavy atmosphere filled the air as Big Mom processed the news.
Perrospero, the one who delivered the news, felt a chill run down his spine, fearing Big Mom's reaction.
"…"
If Perrospero had the courage to look directly at Big Mom, he would have seen her face filled with shock and her eyes filled with disbelief.
It took a long time for Big Mom to process the shocking news.
Perrospero was terrified as he listened to Big Mom's words.
"Where is Katakuri?"
She had sent Katakuri to Fish-Men Island earlier, with the intention of capturing the island and gaining control over its vicinity to establish a strong presence at the entrance of the New World.
Now that Whitebeard is still alive, capturing Fish-Men Island is no longer an option.
Sending Katakuri now could put his life at risk!
"He…. he should have already arrived at the Fish Men Island by now..."
The Marineford Summit War ended a few days ago.
After the war, Whitebeard sailed for two more days after his encounter with the supernova.
It took another two or three days for the news to spread all over the world.
These five or six days are enough time for Katakuri to reach The fish men island.
"...…"
Big Mom's eyes widened in surprise.
A terrifying Haki engulfed the entire castle, accompanied by an overwhelming aura of murderous intent soaring through the sky.
