One Piece: Kaido's adopted son, starts with the Eight Gates Formation.

a few days later.

A single piece of news, like a boulder thrown into a calm sea, stirred up a monstrous wave.

The World Government, through Newsbird, issued a public notice of the execution to the entire world.

Object —

Portgas D. Ace, the second division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates!

The news sent shockwaves through the world, and the Grand Line was thrown into turmoil!

Countless eyes were focused on Marineford, the headquarters of the Navy.

Everyone knows that an unprecedented war, one that could revolutionize the world, is about to begin!

……

A new world, a world of nations.

Cake Island.

"Mama mama mama..."

Charlotte Linlin, one of the Four Emperors, is sitting on her throne, enjoying a delicious dessert made by the Homies.

Before her stood the distinguished children of the Charlotte family: Perospero, Katakuri, Smoothie, Daifuku, Owen, and others.

"Execute Portgas D. Ace? The World Government is really determined this time."

The eldest son, Perospero, licked his candy cane and said lazily.

"That old man with the white beard will definitely come, won't he?"

"That's the strongest man in the world. The Navy is in trouble this time."

The woman stuffed a whole pudding into her mouth, mumbling indistinctly.

"Well, well, well... the Navy's strength is not that simple."

"No matter how strong Whitebeard is, he's just an old man who's about to die."

Just then.

A family member in charge of intelligence rushed in, stumbling and scrambling, his face filled with undisguised horror and panic.

He ran straight up to Katakuri, lowered his voice, and whispered a few words to him at top speed.

Katakuri, who had been maintaining a posture of arms crossed and eyes closed in meditation, experienced a dramatic fluctuation in his usually calm and composed aura for the first time!

His eyes, which were always calm and still, suddenly opened wide!

First came a somber mood.

Immediately, it turned into unbelievable shock!

Finally, it was utterly shocking, a shock that defied all expectations!

"Um?"

The old woman noticed her eldest son's unusual behavior. She stopped eating and cast a scrutinizing glance at him with her huge eyes.

"What's wrong, Katakuri?"

"What information could make you make that face?"

All eyes of the Charlotte family instantly focused on Katakuri.

Katakuri took a deep breath, seemingly trying to calm his wildly beating heart.

His deep voice carried a hint of dryness that he himself was unaware of.

"It's... news from Impel Down."

Impel Down?

The woman immediately lost interest and picked up another piece of cake.

"It's just a prison, what's the big deal?"

Katakuri shook his head and said, word by word.

"It's about... 'Demon Child' Lynn."

Whoosh—!

The entire hall fell into a deathly silence.

All the ministers froze in that moment.

The cake that the middle-aged woman was about to put into her mouth also stopped in mid-air.

Lynn, the "Demon Child".

This name is now synonymous with taboo!

"What does this brat have to do with Impel Down?"

The older woman's curiosity was piqued.

Katakuri began his narration.

"A few days ago, the Navy secretly arrested him and imprisoned him in Infinite Hell."

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded.

They had already heard about this information.

Although it's unclear how the Navy captured Lynn the Demon Child, it's not exactly big news.

"Then, the Navy assembled all its top combat power, Sengoku, Garp, the three admirals, and all the vice admirals of headquarters... and carried out a secret execution on him in Infinite Hell."

Perospero and the others showed expressions of "I knew it."

With such a large-scale operation, that brat is doomed.

However, Katakuri's next words struck everyone like a heavy blow.

"Execution..."

"It failed."

What?!

The entire hall erupted in uproar!

"How is that possible! Even our Big Mom Pirates had to temporarily avoid a confrontation with that kind of lineup! How could he possibly... alone..."

"etc!"

Katakuri raised his hand to stop the crowd's discussion, his voice trembling slightly from the extreme shock.

"It wasn't just a failure..."

"According to intelligence, the entire navy is wounded."

"The three admirals were wounded, and Garp and Sengoku were also seriously injured."

Boom!!!

This time, everyone felt like their brains had been completely blown away!

The expressions on their faces went from shock to blankness, and finally, utter awe!

one person……

They breached the navy's top combat force?!

Are they listening to a fairy tale?!

"Where...where is that monster now?!"

Smoothie couldn't help but ask, "Did he escape Impel Down?"

Katakuri shook his head and stated a fact that left everyone's minds blank.

"no."

He's still on the sixth floor.

"He defeated the navy... and then chose to remain in prison."

"..."

The entire audience was stunned.

Everyone's brains went completely short-circuited.

They simply cannot understand it.

What on earth is that brat Lynn thinking?!

a long time.

"Mmm...mmm...mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!"

The old lady's signature, unrestrained laughter shattered the deathly silence!

In her eyes, there was no fear, only endless greed and ambition!

"Monster! A real monster!!"

"This guy has to be my son!!"

She abruptly rose from her throne and issued an unquestionable command!

"Prepare for a marriage alliance! I want to become in-laws with him!"

"But Mom, he's only a little over a year old!"

"Then let's arrange a marriage between our children!"

A madness gleamed in the old woman's eyes.

"In this world, only he is worthy of my daughter!"

"Quick! Get me a Den Den Mushi!"

"I'm going to call that bastard Kaido myself!!"

……

New World, Demon Island.

The Beasts Pirates' base is currently enveloped in a strange mix of frenzy and silence.

Just now.

Their governor, Kaido, the strongest creature in the world, recounted his incredible experiences in Impel Down.

The Three Disasters, the Flying Six, and all the members of the Beasts Pirates were frozen in place, their minds buzzing.

Lord Lynn...

one person……

They breached the Marine Headquarters?!

He even had three generals serve him tea and water, and massage his shoulders and legs?!

This is fucking...

It's no longer a question of whether it's strong or not.

This is a miracle!

In this silence that was so profoundly moving it was beyond words.

"Brubrubrub..."

A personal Den Den Mushi (snail phone) suddenly rang.

Kaido picked up the Den Den Mushi, saw the iconic lipstick and hairstyle on it, and answered it impatiently.

"Hey! Lingling! I'm busy right now! What's up?"

On the other end of the Den Den Mushi came the old lady's unusually enthusiastic laughter.

"Mmm... Kaido, it's been a long time."

"I heard you've adopted an extraordinary son! Congratulations!"

"That kind of ability really makes you, as a father, proud!"

This sudden praise made Kaido instantly feel a little smug.

He puffed out his chest and let out a deafening laugh.

"Hehehehe! Of course!"

"My son is the future Pirate King! He's the strongest in the world!"

"Well, well, well..." The woman smiled, finally revealing her true intentions, "Since your son is so outstanding, why don't you let him marry my most outstanding daughter?"

"If our two companies join forces, the whole world will be ours!"

"No!"

Kaido refused without even thinking.

"My son is going to marry Yamato!"

"He's destined to become the Shogun of Wano Country... no, he's going to be the man who ascends to the throne of the world's strongest ruler!"

The members of the Beasts Pirates all wore expressions of taking it for granted.

However, the next sentence that came through the Den Den Mushi made everyone present, including Kaido, widen their eyes and drop their jaws.

The older woman spoke in a matter-of-fact, unquestionable tone.

"So what?"

"Your legal wife is your daughter."

"My daughter can be his concubine."
