"My name is Kozuki Hiyori! Kozuki Oden is my father!"
Hiyori announced loudly, glaring at Kaido. "I will definitely reclaim Wano from your grasp, fulfill my father's wish, and establish a country for it!"
Kaido frowned. He had believed that the remnants of Oden were dead and that the so-called twenty-year gap was just a myth. But Kozuki Oden's daughter had survived outside his knowledge. How had she escaped?
Seeing Hiyori's face brought back painful memories of the wound Oden had inflicted on him, and Kaido was momentarily tempted to kill Hiyori on the spot. However, the presence of Arias and his allies made him reconsider.
"Boy, you married my daughter, and now you want to challenge me?" Kaido's voice was filled with irritation. It seemed that not only had his alliance with Arias failed, but a powerful new enemy had emerged.
Arias smiled and said, "It's not me who wants to oppose you; it's Yamato. I'm just supporting my wife!"
Yamato stepped forward, placing her arm around Hiyori's shoulders, and stood resolutely beside her as they faced Kaido's grim expression.
"That's right! I want to help Hiyori establish the country she envisions! We will definitely defeat you!" Yamato declared.
Kaido snorted in response and, with a wave of his hand, left with his Beast Pirates.
After Kaido departed, Jinbei leapt into the sea and swam towards a pirate ship docked nearby. He climbed aboard, greeted by the ship's crew.
"Boss Jinbei! Has your injury healed?" the Evil Dragon inquired, noticing the bandage on Jinbei's chest was gone, leaving no trace of the previous wound.
"Let's go! We're heading to the New World!" Jinbei commanded, and the Sun Pirates' ship set sail towards their destination.
In the captain's cabin, Jinbei retrieved a Den Den Mushi and dialed a number.
"The following is all the information about the Sea Transport King, Umit. Please take note," a pleasant female voice informed him.
"Got it," Jinbei acknowledged before hanging up and contemplating his next steps. After being influenced by Arias, his mission was now to join Yong Ye and seize control of the shipping industry from Umit.
After some reflection and planning, Jinbei resumed his Qi training. Arias had integrated Qi's practice methods into his memory, allowing Jinbei to train directly. Additionally, Arias taught him the Immortal Thief of Liuku and infused a sliver of Yang God into his soul core.
With the combined power of the eight magical skills, Jinbei's abilities were now far more diverse and potent than before. The Yang God ensured that his soul remained under control, erasing any detrimental thoughts. Moreover, the Rage Fruit, acquired from Shanks, enhanced his combat prowess. As his anger grew, so did his strength, though at the cost of his sanity.
Having completed his Qi training, Jinbei took out a wooden box containing the Rage Fruit, swallowed it whole, and felt its miraculous effects take root in his body. He then exited the captain's cabin.
"Boss Jinbei, what's the plan?" the Evil Dragon asked eagerly.
"Let's have some Sea Kings barbecue! I'm a bit hungry," Jinbei suggested. The Evil Dragon quickly headed to the kitchen to prepare the meal.
Jinbei aimed to strengthen himself rapidly for the battles ahead. With many nations and Kaido against him, improving his strength was crucial.
A month later, Jinbei stood triumphantly on Umit's severed head, surveying the silent crowd below.
"Wahahahaha! Boss Jinbei, this is what we Fishmen should be doing!" the Evil Dragon exclaimed. "Why should the underground world only have humans? Who knows the sea better than us Fishmen? With this business, we can amass more wealth to buy weapons!"
The Evil Dragon, with his saw-toothed sword, addressed the crowd: "Boss Jinbei, I say we should eliminate everyone and let us Fishmen brothers take over!"
The Fishmen cheered, but Jinbei's eyes glowed with a dangerous red light.
Umit had been one of the underground world's kings and was protected by powerful experts. Jinbei's strength, enhanced by the Immortal Thief of Liuku and the Rage Fruit, allowed him to defeat Umit's underlings without injury, severing Umit's head with ease.
A force not originally belonging to Jinbei's soul, the Yang God's influence, helped calm his raging emotions, restoring his composure.
"Aladdin, lead our Fishmen in taking over the shipping industry. We need to familiarize ourselves with the business quickly."
Aladdin's face showed concern. "Jinbei, aren't you going to inform Boss Tiger?"
Jinbei shook his head. "Boss Tiger is too indecisive. At his pace, we'd never gather enough strength. Besides, if we tell him now, he'd be worried about us. If we're exposed, the World Government will target him. It's better to keep this from him for now and give him a surprise later!"
Aladdin hesitated but ultimately accepted Jinbei's reasoning and began organizing the takeover.
Meanwhile, a fierce battle was unfolding in the New World. Ginny, the king of the nations, and her new warehouse faced off against formidable opponents.
"Cracker! Where did these two come from? Why are they so strong?" Dafu and Irving, battling Daxiong, could only manage a draw, while Cracker, one of the four generals, struggled against Ginny!
"Is this what the four generals of all nations are capable of?" Ginny, wielding the Logia Mera Mera Fruit, defeated Cracker with blazing intensity.
