One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 280 Kaido: I am the captain!

Pirates gather at the port of Onigashima.

"Lord Goode is back!"

"Line up to welcome them!"

"Get into position and let Lord Goode witness the results of our cultivation!"

Every time Goode returns, the pirates of the Beasts go to great lengths to welcome him, and this time is no exception.

Upon seeing the Groudon and Goode standing on the deck, all the pirates immediately ripped off their coats, leaving only their underwear, and flexed their muscles to strike a series of bodybuilding poses!

Side ab slap!

Latissimus dorsi muscles!
Extend your biceps forward!

A group of muscular men gathered together, it was a chaotic scene!

The art style of all the animals has been distorted.

"Clap clap clap!"

Goode clapped his hands in approval, then led his men through the middle expressionlessly, never glancing at the pirates again.

Afraid of having nightmares at night.

Although it's a disgusting sight, it's a good thing that pirates can train their bodies. At least it can improve their strength, which is better than doing nothing all day.

So he clapped his hands against his conscience.

"Lord Goode seems quite satisfied!"

"Haha, that's great! Our efforts haven't been in vain!"

"Wow, I'm fired up!"

Keep building muscle!

Once a trend takes hold, it becomes incredibly difficult to change. Nowadays, pirates take pride in having a muscular physique.

Big is beautiful, tough is strong!
Even the female pirates are training their muscles!
Upon arriving at Castle Square, the cadres also appeared one after another.

"Ku-chan!"

Runti was the first to rush over, charging like a torpedo as always. Unfortunately, this time Goode was prepared and raised his hand to press Runti's head down.

Other cadres also came forward to greet them.

Goode looked around.

"Where is Haildin?"

"Haydin went to Elbaf, saying he wanted to challenge Captain Dorry and Brogy and become the true captain of the Giant Warrior Pirates!"

Page Van answered.

Goode nodded.

Hajrudin is merely the captain of the New Giant Warrior Pirates; his crew consists of young men. While the giants are willing to follow him, it's only because he has taken up the Iron Thunder.

Now that Dorry and Brogy have returned, their prestige far surpasses that of Hajrudin, and the two captains have rebuilt the Giant Warrior Pirates.

A clash between the old and the new is inevitable.

Furthermore, if Haldin wants to seize the captain's position, he must defeat Dorry and Brogy's alliance, because the giants' tradition is that there are two captains, and the combination of them is the strongest.

the reason is simple.

Elbaf's strongest combo attack: Domination!

"what!"

Goode looked up at the third floor.

Besides Kaido, there was another very powerful and unfamiliar aura.

It's not Aunt Lingling.

"Xiao Pei, are we having guests?"

"It's the Golden Lion!"

Golden Lion? Shiki?

Goode was somewhat surprised.

What's this old bastard doing coming to this ghost island?
Third floor, at the entrance of the grand banquet hall.

"Qiang! Qiang!"

The golden lion, accompanied by a gorilla and a scientist, swayed its body and danced with an arrogant, indifferent gait, before finally sliding backwards into the hall.

"Hi!"

The two people and the gorilla turned around at the same time, stretched out their arms and made a comical flower-flowering gesture, looking like an atmosphere group.

The officers of Bai Shou were dumbfounded.

This comical fellow is none other than the legendary pirate who once cornered Roger, the flying pirate "Golden Lion" Shiki?
Besides the quirky trio, the Flying Pirates also brought a number of their officers, especially a man whose clothes resembled those of King.

Shiryu Ame-no-Kami, former warden of Impel Down!
After Blackbeard's death, the remnants of his crew went their separate ways. Shiryu, invited by Shiki, joined his crew. Twenty years ago, he had contact with Shiki when Shiki was imprisoned, at which time Shiryu was the vice warden.

Like Blackbeard, Shiki was also a man he favored, and most importantly, he had room to grow under Shiki's command.

In today's new world, there aren't many targets to choose from.

The powerful beasts gathered there, but there was no position he wanted. The Big Mom Gang was maintained by blood ties, and outsiders could not become core members.

Aside from the beasts and Big Mom, Shiki is arguably the best choice, and coincidentally, Shiki is also actively recruiting subordinates.

"Chirp, hahaha!"

After his antics ended, Golden Lion stepped into the hall and sat down in the first seat to Kaido's right.

"Kaido, have you thought it through?"

"Wait a minute, Shiki."

Kaido had a cold expression.

The Golden Lion sought him out to obtain Beehive Island!
As a pirate paradise, Beehive Island is a sacred place in the hearts of pirates, holding a status that no other island can replace.

Although many pirates rank Golden Lion alongside them, there are also many doubts, after all, twenty years have passed and even Whitebeard has died.

Times have changed!

"Golden Lion" Shiki!
Barrett, the "Devil's Heir"!

Wang Zhi, the "Master of the Five Peaks"!
Bondi Waldo, the "World Destroyer," and others.

After Whitebeard's death, one after another, the old guys who were active twenty years ago reappeared, each one arrogant and overbearing.

And the newcomers of the worst era should not be underestimated either.

If Shiki were to take over Beehive Island, the Flying Pirates' influence would undoubtedly surge, and Shiki would solidify his position as one of the Four Emperors.

But the effect would be the same for other silver medalists.

Everyone longs for Beehive Island!
Now that Beehive Island is in the hands of the beasts, no matter how much the various forces covet it, they dare not make any rash moves.

If it were the old Beastmaster, the silver medalist would probably have already taken action, but the current Beastmaster is different; he has the Hoenn government backing him!

That's a terrifying organization that even the World Government dares to confront head-on; its deterrent power has surpassed that of the Beasts Pirates.

Especially Goode, the leader of Hoenn!

Just yesterday, the World Government released new bounties.

Good, the "God of the Earth," has a bounty of 5.12 billion Berries!
It surpasses Whitebeard's 5.046 billion and is second only to Pirate King Roger's 5.5648 billion, ranking second in the history of pirates!
Kaido took a swig of his drink and glanced at Goode's bounty poster on the table. The glaring figure of 51 billion made him feel uneasy.

It's a hundred million more than his bounty!
At their level, a difference of several hundred million in bounties doesn't mean much; a higher bounty only means a greater threat to the world government.

But he is the captain!

How can the captain's bounty be lower than the crew's!
Also, he wasn't ignoring Shiki, but rather he couldn't make the decision. Good got his hands on Hive Island, so whether or not it could be sold was up to Good!

"Crack!"

The wine flask was crushed by his bare hands.

Kaido's anger surged.

He seems like a rather pathetic captain!
The more I think about it, the angrier I get! The angrier I get, the more I think about it!
"Uro ro ro!!!"

Kaido suddenly stood up, glaring and roaring.

"Where is Goode? Bring him here quickly!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Dishes shattered, doors and windows exploded!
The pirates covered their ears, enduring the pain of the sonic boom.

Oh no, Kaido is furious!

"Clap!"

Footsteps reached my ears.

The pirates looked towards the entrance, overjoyed.

It's Lord Goode!
The savior is here!

The only strong person in the crew capable of stopping Kaido is Lord Goode!
"Brother Kaido, who made you angry?"

Goode entered the hall and looked at the mess of tables and chairs. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Which bastard dared to anger Brother Kaido?

If you mess with Kaido, you're messing with him!

Goode's face turned cold as he glared at the golden lion.

"Is that you, Golden Lion!"

"what?!"

Shiki looked like he had dementia.

What does it have to do with him!
