One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 1078: Battle of the Mother Fire (IV)
"Is this your mother fire? It's really big!"

Quinn looked at the huge mechanical creature in front of him. It stood before his eyes like a giant's heart. It was clearly underground, but it seemed to reach straight into the clouds.

"It's not that big originally. It's mainly because we added a flipping device on the outside. This device is really troublesome. At the same time, we also need to free up another storage space for the mother fire. We haven't been idle during this period, hehe."

A half-green, half-white figure that looked like a rabbit robot jumped out and came all the way to Quinn, but his height...

“So short!”

"Who are you calling short, asshole?"

Quinn subconsciously spoke his mind, and the next moment Edison flew into a rage, and was about to jump up and hit Quinn's knee.

"Okay Edison, Quinn didn't mean it, Mr. Quinn. Edison hates it most when people talk about his height. Let's put that aside for now and get down to business."

Shakya came out to smooth things over. After all, the only people responsible for operating the flip collider were Vegapunk himself and Edison. They had to not be delayed by a small matter as they were racing against time.

"Okay, okay, I won't bother with you for now. Where is the Mother Fire? Did you bring it with you? Who among you has the ability to ship quickly?"

Edison obviously knew that now was not the time to talk about this, and he rarely hesitated on this topic and spoke directly.

"Neither of us are. We didn't bring the Mother Fire with us. We couldn't carry something that big. We would be exposed as soon as we got here. But we brought this."

Quinn said as he took out a small cylinder the size of a normal smoke bomb with a red button on it and pressed it gently. The next moment.

"Zizi, zhi-hum!"

After a short burst of electric current and a high-pitched hum, a puff of black smoke came out of the small cylinder, which was obviously...

"broken?"

Hawkins said as he looked at the little cylinder that was emitting black smoke and electrocuting Quinn, who was screaming. Although he still had that deadpan expression, everyone could hear the embarrassment in his tone.

"No, it worked. This is a one-time signal transmitter. In order to ensure that it can bypass the magnetic field influence of so many islands on the Grand Line, it has high power and is disposable. It hits me every time. Hiss - it really hurts. I will definitely give that old bastard Vegapunk a good beating when the time comes."

Quinn said, covering her fingers.

"It is indeed sending out a high-frequency signal. If I hadn't just modified my radio system, I wouldn't have been able to detect it. It's an interesting invention. Where are you sending the signal to?"

Edison touched his rabbit ears and asked.

"New World."

Quinn looked back at Edison, smiled and said.

"New World? Could it be that your people are still in the New World? It's a long way from the New World to here! It will be too late to pull the Mother Fire from the New World now!"

When Edison heard about the new world, he was immediately dumbfounded. Such a long distance, even the fastest ship would need at least two weeks to sail. This time, Egg Head Island was not on the edge of the Red Earth Continent. In order to prevent accidents, they secretly changed the route and arrived at an uninhabited area. By the time the mother fire was delivered, everything was too late!
"Don't worry, we're not using a boat this time, and we're very fast. How about counting down from ten? Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one, zero!"

"Swish!" A bird's cry resounded throughout the entire space. It seemed that the sound did not appear in the ear, but in people's hearts. No, it was not a cry, but the sound of a body cutting through the air. Along with the sound, a vermilion body appeared. The huge red figure almost covered the entire underground space. Sakya and Edison were almost scared to death when they saw the thing that suddenly appeared. Even though they had seen too many strange things, this huge creature that suddenly appeared in front of them without any warning was enough to make them feel scared.

"boom!"

A huge metal box fell to the ground, so heavy that the ground shook. The huge vermilion figure quickly began to shrink, and in a short while, it disappeared from everyone's sight. Only Lily was left sitting on the huge metal box.

"Four Emperors, Rose Lily, you are here in person?"

Shakya looked at the figure on the box and said after a moment's silence.

"How else can we transport it here? If we transport it directly, the World Government is not blind. Besides, they have sent people to roam around, so they must have discovered some problems long ago."

Lily said after trimming her finger with a file.

"Okay, big sister, stop pretending. There's a CP0 on the island now. We don't have that much time. Just in case, let's finish it quickly and get rid of those guys."

Quinn knew Lily was pretending when he saw her movements, because Lily was not someone who paid much attention to nail care. In some ways, his eldest sister's personality was more masculine than that of men. Every time she made some special movements, it meant that she was acting.

"Okay, I'll help you open the box, and you can handle the rest by yourselves. By the way, how many people are here? Who else is there besides CP0? The World Government doesn't dare to let CP0 come out alone now."

Lily jumped down from the box and reached out to touch the box beside her. A scarlet Yamato flame ignited, and the box that originally looked extremely solid seemed to be made of paper. It quickly collapsed and disintegrated, leaving no ashes at all.

"About 10 to 20 people. I don't know exactly how many there are. They are all hiding very well. If it weren't for Vegapunk's new equipment, I'm afraid they wouldn't be found. And there are probably quite a few people with special abilities because they are all wearing black clothes, with nothing showing except their eyes. It's very similar to what Archaon said at the time."

Quinn didn't say he knew all of them, what if one more person got in the way? So he just gave an approximate number. Anyway, Lily's observation Haki was strong, so there was no need for him to worry about it, right?
"Those people? Are they the ones who might be mixed-bloods? Okay, I got it. Leave these people to me. You can just focus on handling things here."

Lily's eyes lit up, then narrowed, like a cat seeing fishy smell, or a lammergeier seeing its prey. She smiled and went out the door. No one told her the direction of the exit, but this was not a problem for Lily at all.

"Hiss - that person just now was so scary. He seemed so gentle at the beginning."

After Lily left the room, Edison finally spoke.

"Well, that's how Sister Lily behaves when facing the enemy. Just get used to it. When it comes to her own people, Sister Lily is still very gentle. Okay, forget about it. Come on, what should we do next?"

Quinn walked forward and said as he looked at the sphere in front of him.

"Oh, yes, yes, I almost forgot about the Mother Spark. Come on! Let's get started! Let me show you my great invention! The Mother Spark Reversal Collider!"

As Edison spoke, he ran to the side and operated a panel. The next moment, the huge machine in front of him came to life. A gap was opened, and a hole appeared that was just big enough to hold the mother fire. At the same time, another mother fire could be seen at the other end through the hole.

"Is this your female fire? She's so beautiful!"

Quinn exclaimed.
