The person is wearing a straw hat, and starts with the power of words!

He looked at Teach and said in a deep voice, "An alliance is fine, but you need to do as you said. If the Straw Hat Pirates really come looking for us, you must be the first to fight."

Upon hearing this, Teach grinned and said, "Of course. Then it's settled, Lord Kaido. From now on, we're allies."

Kaido nodded in agreement.

"Well then, Lord Kaido, as an ally, I'll tell you one more piece of news. Perhaps it will be a surprise for you."

Blackbeard Teach smiled mysteriously.

His words instantly piqued Kaido's interest. He grabbed the sake jar, took a big gulp, wiped his mouth, and asked, "What news? Speak up! Then get lost and don't disturb my drinking!"

Teach didn't keep them in suspense and went straight to the point: "BIGMOM is very likely not dead!"

With just one sentence, Kaido smashed the wine jar in his hand to the ground, his pupils widening in shock. He grabbed Teach and pulled him to his feet.

"What did you say? Lingling might not be dead?!"

This was incredibly good news for Kaido.

According to his intelligence-gathering subordinates, the Big Mom Pirates, like Teach's Blackbeard Pirates, were wiped out.

If Bigam were still alive, he would be just like Teach, all alone.

There's nowhere to go.

If we could bring BIGMOM into the league as well.

That would give them a better chance of dealing with the Straw Hat crew.

Blackbeard's current strength is probably still somewhat inferior to that of the veteran Yonko.

But if you roughly calculate it, it can still be considered as a royal-level.

With him and BIGMOM added to the mix, our side now has three Emperor-level powerhouses!

"Hey, hey, hey, Lord Kaido, don't get so worked up. I was just saying maybe, maybe, you understand?"

Teach patted Kaido's hand, signaling him to let go of him.

Now, apart from those two freaks in the Straw Hat crew, Teach fears no one among the Four Emperors.

Even if the opponent is Kaido of the Beasts, who is known as the strongest creature in the world!

Kaido relaxed slightly, but still frowned as he looked at him. "What exactly do you mean? Explain yourself clearly at once. I don't have time to play these roundabout games with you!"

He was getting increasingly annoyed with Blackbeard.

Kaido especially disliked his speaking style.

"At that time, the old lady had just fallen into the lava hell, and her life or death was unknown. Do you understand? As one of the Four Emperors, I believe that everyone has great fortune."

"I believe Bigom will survive this little misfortune!"

Teach is a big believer in luck.

This is also his principle of conduct.

For anything and anyone, just go ahead and do what you want to do. As for whether you can succeed or fail, let fate decide!

As the saying goes, life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are bestowed by heaven!

If he really dies like this, then it just proves that he was nothing more than that kind of man!

The same goes for Big Mom; since she was able to fight against all the world's enemies, she ascended to the throne of the Sea Emperor.

Luck will definitely be on their side.

After all, even the strongest person has moments of weakness.

If BIGMOM is unlucky, it might just kick the bucket while it's still weak.

How could she possibly survive until the height of her power?!

“What you said makes a good point.” Kaido surprisingly agreed with Blackbeard’s words.

Actually, in a way, he and Blackbeard are quite similar in personality.

The end justifies the means.

Cruel and ruthless!

For Kaido, indiscriminate killing of innocent people was nothing more than a daily occurrence.

"Do you have a way to find Lingling?"

43. Sima Di VS Zoro!

Kaido asked again.

Teach shook his head. "No, that place is too deep. Even someone with a Logia-type Devil Fruit like Ace couldn't get in."

"You may not know this, but although it is known as a lava hell, it actually contains a lot of marine elements."

"For Devil Fruit users like us, our abilities will be restricted once we go inside."

Upon hearing this, Kaido sighed.

"It's a pity. If Lingling were here, our chances of winning would at least double."

...

Just as the two were talking, a pirate from the Kaido Pirates rushed in.

He was surprised to see that there were outsiders here.

However, he quickly suppressed his anger and reported to Kaido: "Lord Kaido! Something terrible has happened! We have discovered the presence of Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors, within Wano Country! She is currently wreaking havoc in Wano! Please make a decision, Lord Kaido!"

Upon hearing his subordinate's words, Kaido was taken aback for a moment, glanced at Blackbeard, and then burst into wild laughter.

"Hahaha! What's wrong with this? This is wonderful! Heaven is helping me!"

"Just when I was starving, someone brought me food. Teach, it seems your theory of luck was indeed correct!"

"It seems that heaven is indeed on our side, deliberately leaving BIGMOM here. We are much more confident in this battle."

Teach's face was also filled with surprise.

The sudden appearance of the middle-aged woman gave their side a qualitative leap in strength once again!

"Jhin! Tell him to come over. Teach, you stay with Jhin and have a proper discussion about the alliance. I'll be right back!"

"Go ahead without worry, Lord Kaido, I will," Teach replied.

Kaido nodded, took out another large jar of sake, and drank it all in one gulp.

Then, to Teach's amazed gaze, it transformed into a giant blue dragon thousands of meters long!

It crashed through the roof and soared upwards!

In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the horizon!

......

On the sea.

The Going Merry is slowly sailing towards Wano Country.

"100001...100002..."

In his training room, Zoro, as usual, was endlessly swinging the training equipment made of barbell plates.

Emperor Sima sat quietly to the side, watching all of this.

After a long while, Zoro finished his training and sat down next to Sima Di.

"Want to practice?"

Sima Di shook his head and laughed, "You're practicing like this; your power ceiling is too low."

"If you continue to practice in this way, even if you are given a thousand years, you will not be able to catch up with me. The title of the strongest swordsman is destined to be out of your reach."

Zoro narrowed his eyes, slowly stood up, and picked up two wooden training knives from the side.

He grabbed one in his hand and handed it to Sima Di.

"Are you sure?" Sima Di raised an eyebrow.

"I'm certain, absolutely certain, and without a doubt! Come on! The title of the strongest swordsman can only be mine! I made a promise!"

Zoro's eyes gleamed as he stared intently at Sima Di.

Despite spending so much time together, he never had a clear understanding of Sima Di's strength.

Because every time Sima Di made a move, it refreshed his understanding!

Therefore, as Zoro grew stronger, he became increasingly shocked by Sima Di's strength.

It seems that no matter how strong he becomes, Sima Di will always be able to keep him in check.

43: The duel between Sima Di and Zoro

Sima Di was like a bottomless pit that could never be reached.
