This is an achievement that even pirates with bounties exceeding one billion cannot accomplish today.

It can be said that these achievements alone are enough for Lin Yan to stand among the Four Emperors.

He was described by the Navy as a man they absolutely had to capture.

The power of the Navy Headquarters is not something everyone dares to ignore.

It's fair to say that the Beasts Pirates' power is something they simply cannot fear.

Even so, the pressure from Naval Headquarters was immense.

They simply couldn't ignore it like Lin Yan did; it's just that the place they were in, Wano Country, was a relatively safe place.

Even the navy cannot directly enter it; it is not under the jurisdiction of the World Government.

Chapter 244 The New General, Hiyori Kozuki

But the main reason is probably because they are one of the Four Emperors' pirate crews.

This is not within the jurisdiction of the world government.

Naval Headquarters also did not want to waste its resources on fighting them.

As one of the forces that cannot be governed, the Beast Pirates' terror cannot be established in a single day.

Although Lin Yan defeated Jack the Drought, he did not actually establish much prestige within the Beasts Pirates.

The reason is simple: Lin Yan's power is very strong at this time.

But in reality, the prestige he built up was not very significant.

Because among the three major signs, Jack the Drought is actually not considered a particularly powerful one.

It can be said that it is one of the three weakest members. Both Queen the Plague and King the Wildfire are stronger than Jack the Drought.

They all have their own loyal followers, and these people are unlikely to have much goodwill towards Lin Yan.

That is why the Beasts Pirates are not actually a monolithic entity.

Previously, many people had no choice but to submit because of Kaido.

But now, without Kaido's suppression, the top members of the Beasts Pirates, as well as those so-called true fighters and the Flying Six, are gone.

Almost all of them have already begun to stir.

Behind each of them, there are almost always a lot of people supporting them.

Everyone is eyeing the position of captain of the Beasts Pirates.

Lin Yan, however, didn't care at all. With Kaido around, none of these things mattered.

At worst, we can just kill a couple of Flying Six or a few Real Fighters; it doesn't matter.

The next day, Kaido had already sent someone to bring Mr. 3 over.

However, it wasn't just Mr. 3 who was brought before Lin Yan.

And the courtesan I met while drinking with courtesans before, who should now be called Kozuki Hiyori.

"Why did you bring this girl along?"

Lin Yan frowned slightly as he looked at Hiyori Kozuki next to Mr. 3.

He probably also understood why Hiyori and Kozuki had come here.

However, he had no interest in doing anything about saving this so-called Wano Country.

In his view, these things had nothing to do with him.

Even if all the people of Wano Country were to die, it wouldn't cause Lin Yan much trouble.

"Well... she insisted on coming with me."

Mr3 then spoke up, looking embarrassed.

He could also sense that Lin Yan didn't want to see the girl.

However, Mr. 3 is a bit soft-hearted and finds it hard to refuse the beautiful woman's request, which led to this situation.

"Sir, I'm sorry to have disturbed you."

"Let me reintroduce myself. My name is Hiyori Kozuki."

"She is the second daughter of the previous shogun, Kozuki Oden. She stayed in the brothel to seek revenge for her father."

"I have come here to thank you for helping my father avenge his death."

Hiyori Kozuki knelt on the ground, her forehead touching the earth, and thanked Lin Yan very respectfully.

However, Lin Yan didn't really care about this thank you.

This expression of gratitude clearly has an ulterior motive.

And Hiyori's intentions have become quite clear.

They simply coveted my power and wanted to negotiate with me.

"You're welcome. I didn't kill Kurozumi Orochi for anyone else."

"I just don't like him."

"If there's nothing else, you can go back now."

"No need for thanks."

Lin Yan waved his hand, signaling him to leave Ghost Island.

After all, in a place like this, he had no intention of provoking Hiyori Kozuki in front of him.

To be honest, Lin Yan still hoped to avoid any conflict with this girl.

Despite his tragic past, the Beasts Pirates still proved to be of considerable use to him.

It's impossible for him to leave Wano Country with the Beasts Pirates.

"My lord, I would like to ask you for a favor, if you are willing."

"No matter what it is, I'm willing to help you, sir."

Hiyori Kozuki did not get up; instead, she slammed her head against the floor even harder.

She knew very well that she had no choice now.

Lin Yan will be his only choice, and that is why.

That's why she came here. Whether Wano Country can be liberated depends on Lin Yan.

That's why I keep coming here to deal with disasters.

Without Lin Yan, he wouldn't be able to do anything.

Only now, at this level, are there very few people who can accomplish this.

Therefore, according to Lin Yan's conjecture, this should be the case.

"I've already said that what happens in Wano Country has nothing to do with me."

"Sometimes, people still need to weigh the consequences themselves."

"I killed Kurozumi Orochi simply because I couldn't stand the guy."

"But that doesn't mean that killing him will make me the savior of your Wano Country."

"There's no need to morally blackmail me. Kaido occupied Wano Country simply because it was too weak."

"Even without Kaido, other pirates would find a way to come to Wano Country and take over this place."

"You still need to think more about your own problems."

"With the traitor Orochi dead, the situation in Wano Country will greatly improve."

Lin Yan shook his head and chose to refuse Hiyori Kozuki.

With his current power, he doesn't need to consider anything about Kozuki and Hiyori.

Wano Country would be even less of a consideration for him.

To put it bluntly, it's just an island nation; if it gets destroyed, so be it.

Hiyori looked up at Lin Yan, her face showing disbelief.

She originally thought this would be very beneficial to Lin Yan or Wano Country.

But she didn't expect that Lin Yan seemed to be much more cold and ruthless than she had imagined.

Those eyes seemed devoid of any emotion.

Hiyori Kozuki couldn't believe that anyone would know about the tragic state of Wano Country and still be unable to empathize.

Unfortunately, Lin Yan is not that kind of person.

He felt no sense of entitlement whatsoever to the life or death of anyone.

In this dog-eat-dog world, even if none of these people have done anything wrong.
