Glaring at Perrospero, Jinbei spoke with anger: "Big Mom treated my family like this. It's only right for the old man to withdraw from your pirate group. Joining the Whitebeard pirate group seems more reasonable now."
"Hmph, Mother never lets go of betrayers. Although Whitebeard is tough, Mother isn't without a countermeasure,"
Perrospero replied indifferently.
These words immediately made Jinbei suspicious. "What do you mean? Does Big Mom have any plans?"
"Perorinn, I don't know anything. If you want to know, you can ask Mom yourself"
Perrosperro replied.
"Damn it, does Big Mom have some trick up her sleeve?" Jinbei worriedly pondered.
Indeed, although Jinbei believes that Big Mom might act out of anger and fight against Whitebeard, regardless of the consequences.
But Jinbei couldn't shake the feeling that Big Mom's children and ministers always had plans in motion. Their confidence suggested they were prepared for whatever might come their way.
What could this plan be? Jinbei didn't know, but he was certain that the other party's Plan must have an impact on the Whitebeard Pirates, or else things wouldn't happen this way.
"Perrospero, I'm not afraid of you, and I won't be crushed by you. Because the man i'm following is Whitebeard!"
Jinbei said firmly, determination gleaming in his eyes.
Regardless of the other party's plan, Jinbei resolved to trust in his captain. There was no use thinking about it now. All he could do was focus on defeating Perrospero as quickly as possible.
"You've got the courage. I won't wait for mother to punish you. I'll take care of you right here on the battlefield,"
Perrospero declared, pointing his candy cane at Jinbei.
"Hahaha, you think you can take down this old man? It won't be that easy. I was once one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and now I'm the sixth commander of the Whitebeard Pirates!"
Jinbei said, suddenly smiling with confidence.
"On land, let's see what you've got, Jinbei,"
Perrosperro taunted as he charged towards Jinbei. As he approached, his candy cane thrust forward, unleashing countless candy thorns.
"Huh, Fishman Karate!"
Jinbei grunted, meeting Perrosperro's attack head-on and effortlessly neutralizing it, showing no mercy.
"The old man's strength is greater in the sea. Does that mean you think I'm weaker on land and can be bullied?"
Jinbei said bluntly.
"You're truly shameless," Perrosperro laughed.
But despite that, Jinbei was aware of his weaknesses. However, he knew that his Fishman Karate-like Semeigawara Seiken techniques could still unleash a powerful force.
However, when it came to flexibility, Jinbei acknowledged his shortcomings. Against opponents like Perrosperro, pure strength alone wouldn't be enough.
So Jinbei began to devise a secret plan. He knew Perrosperro had a character flaw: he was prone to arrogance and talking too much.
Several times, Perrosperro had been delayed by his own words. Now, it seemed his character hadn't changed.
Jinbei planned to exploit this weakness in Perrosperro's character, but it would require a well-thought-out strategy.
"Perrospero, this old man is feeling a bit regretful," Jinbei said suddenly.
"What do you regret?"
Perrosperro questioned, a little curious about why Jinbei suddenly brought it up.
"The old man regrets that in this rare Four Emperors pirate battle, my opponent is you,"
Jinbei said blankly
Hearing this, Perrosperro couldn't help but smile triumphantly. "Regretting it, huh? You should be dealing with my brothers and sisters. I'm not an easy opponent for you to defeat"
"No, no, you've misunderstood me," Jinbei explained quickly.
"Oh? Misunderstanding? What do you mean?" Perospelo asked, intrigued.
"I mean, this battle is too unchallenging for me. Think about it, in such an important battle, facing powerful opponents would truly highlight my value. If my opponent were Katakuri, that would be lucky"
Jinbei said in a slightly provocative tone.
Hearing that, Perrosperro's expression slowly changed, gradually becoming colder.
"What... what do you mean?" Perrospero asked gloomily.
"Hey, I really wished my opponent was Katakuri, but here you are, which is quite disappointing," Jinbei said.
"Damn it, you're going to learn just how strong I am!"
Perrosperro said, suddenly clenching his fists as a surge of anger built up inside him.
As Katakuri's elder brother, Perrosperro held a high status in the family, but compared to Katakuri strength, he indeed fell short.
In terms of strength, prestige among younger siblings, or leadership ability, Katakuri must be superior.
Although Perrosperro has a good relationship with Katakuri and respects him, being compared to his brother can trigger his anger.
At that moment, Perrosperro resorted to his own trick. He used his fruit ability to erect four candy walls around himself and Jinbei.
These candy walls are very tall. Four candy walls surround him and Jinbei, separating them from the battlefield outside.
"Oh? It seems we're not going to let anyone else come and disturb us"
Jinbei surveyed their surroundings. The candy walls were thick, making it difficult to break through.
Even if Jinbei could break through, Perrosperro would surely seize the opportunity to attack him. However, Jinbei found solace in the protection provided by the candy walls.
At least with the walls, they could fight without worrying about their battle spilling over to the surrounding crew.
"Jinbei, let you see how good I am." Perrospero gritted his teeth.
Jinbei observed as Perrospero used his candy power to create five clones identical to himself.
"Trying to overwhelm me with numbers? It's an interesting strategy," Jinbei said solemnly.
As soon as Jinbei spoke, the five avatars of Perrospero began to besiege him at the same time, attacking from different directions.
Jinbei suddenly stepped back, then grabbed one of the clones behind him, unleashing the full power of his body.
Jinbei grabbed the clone and threw it forward violently, bursting out an extremely powerful force
