If Sengoku doesn't pull back his net soon, I'll become the Pirate King!

Chapter 305 Bazel: My trump card is the Double Kings!

The Den Den Mushi ended, and Bazel looked up at the gathering rain clouds in the sky, slowly exhaling.

"Uncle, what terrible idea have you come up with now?!"

"Why do I feel like this time the target isn't the Whitebeard Pirates, but rather—"

The words "Beast Pirates" were not uttered aloud, as it was an absurd idea without any basis.

Barzel was also unable to determine whether it was true or false.

After his casual chat with Dorrag, and considering the smooth progress he'd made recently, Bazel felt like he'd overlooked something.

"What exactly is it?!"

"Is Wano Country really their target?"

The Den Den Mushi rang again with a contact tone.

Snap—

"Bazaar?"

"This is Gion. Find a quiet place."

"Then wait for me a moment."

Snap—

The Den Den Mushi hung up again, and rang again a few minutes later.

"What happened?"

Bazel scanned his surroundings with Observation Haki, confirming that there was no one else besides himself, and lowered his voice.

"Find a reason to contact Sister He and inquire about headquarters' recent plans."

"I suddenly felt uneasy, but I couldn't pinpoint the source."

"I always feel like there's a sharp sword hidden in the darkness, aimed at my vest."

"I can even feel the chilling glint of the sword's edge."

The Den Den Mushi paused for a moment, then said seriously, "I understand. Wait a moment."

Snap—

The Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scooter) hangs up.

Bazel casually tossed the Den Den Mushi onto the table, got up, walked to the edge of the balcony, and stared at the dark clouds in the sky.

What exactly is it? What have I overlooked?

Ten minutes later, the Den Den Mushi rang again.

Snap—

"It's me, Bazel!"

Dorag's increasingly deep voice perfectly reflected the sky at that moment.

"The monkey didn't answer the Den Den Mushi, something must have happened."

"—I understand. Contact me as soon as you have any news from Monkey."

Bazel's heart sank. He gave Dorrag a few more instructions and then hung up.

Something really did happen.

Another few minutes of waiting.

Just as the Den Den Mushi rang and was answered, a muffled clap of thunder sounded in the sky.

"Bazaar————"

The Den Den Mushi hesitated, as if it wanted to say something but then stopped.

"It's okay, go ahead and say it."

"Sister He—whoosh!"

Den Den Mushi closed its eyes and took a deep breath.

"Sister He, Sister He, she—"

Bazel felt a strange surge of irritation rising within him.

"She told me to leave Wano Country as soon as possible, saying the surveillance mission was canceled."

Bazel's pupils suddenly contracted, his breathing became rapid, and he stared at the Den Den Mushi in disbelief.

The surveillance mission has been cancelled, which means that—

I've been abandoned?!

"Anything else?"

Hearing the man's seemingly indifferent reply, the Den Den Mushi anxiously said, "Tsuru-nee didn't say anything else, Bazel, don't overthink it. Maybe it's because they think you can—"

letter."

The girl's voice grew softer and softer. Bazel looked up, a profound sense of loneliness welling up within him.

"It seems they've chosen the World Government this time."

"So it seems that the reason why Dragon couldn't contact the monkey was because of the bio-signal jammer that Satan of the Five Elders had previously set up in Punk Hazard."

He had been prepared for the Navy to choose the World Government, but he didn't expect that day to come so soon.

Now, Bazel is suddenly very glad that when he returned to the South Sea, he moved the Solvi Kingdom to another location.

Otherwise, the future situation will fall into a completely passive position.

"I understand this matter. Since they have chosen the World Government this time, I don't care whether they made the decision out of desperation or were forced to make it by the Five Elders."

"They will regret their shortsightedness."

"Bazaar, don't worry, I'll go ask Sister He again—"

"Gion, there's nothing to ask. The Navy is just a watchdog for the World Government."

Interrupting Gion, Bazel's face showed a mocking expression.

"What they get to eat depends on their owner's mood."

"When the owner is in a good mood, they will naturally be able to eat chicken, duck, fish and meat; when the owner is in a bad mood, they will have to go hungry."

"You won't get any results even if you ask again, so there's no need to burn bridges."

"Below them are countless mouths waiting to be fed by the World Government, and the lives of countless naval soldiers are at stake. What can they do? Ha!"

With a cold laugh, Bazel looked out at the impending storm.

"The reason why Sister Tsuru asked you to leave Wano Country during the communication was probably to tell me this news through you."

"In other words, the Five Elders have decided to execute me at this crucial moment for defiling the King of the World."

"As for the navy, it is now likely in a difficult situation."

"If we disobey orders, we face the future of having our military funding cut off by the Five Elders."

"If I listen, I will be putting myself in an unjust position."

"That's why they remained silent, letting fate decide everything, until you just made contact with He, and then fate slowly began to tilt a little in my favor."

The Den Den Mushi looked shocked; Gion hadn't thought that much about it at all.

"Leave here, Gion, don't make things difficult for Tsuru."

As the torrential rain poured down, Bazel stood in the rain, but the cold rain could not extinguish his increasingly burning soul.

"When I chose to embark on this path, the moment today was destined to happen."

"They want to stop me from moving forward, but I'm determined to fight my way through."

"They thought they could stop me, but I'll show them with facts that they can't just overturn my table!"

The Den Den Mushi remained silent for a few moments: "I will not leave Bazel. Their choice is their business. I am an adult, and I can take responsibility for my own choices."

"I will stay here, in Wano Country, to await your triumphant return."

'

Standing in the rain, Bazel remained silent for a long time. "Are you sure? Even if you leave, I won't blame you."

"I'm certain that if I leave now, I'll regret it in the future!"

The Den Den Mushi stared intently at Bazel.

"You are a man destined for great things, Bazel, I choose to believe in you!"

Bazel's lips curled up slightly: "In that case, prepare for a fight to the death."

"Although I don't know how the World Government found out that we Beasts were hiding in Wano Country, since they want to overturn the table, I'll show them my trump card."

"They thought they could expose my stronghold while I, Bazeir, am in the West Sea, well, I'll let them know."

"Once you're in this 'jar,' getting out won't be so easy!"

Boom!

The lightning that streaked across the sky suddenly took on a sinister, bloody hue.

The increasingly dark rain completely obscured the light.

But that fleeting flash of lightning illuminated the madness on the man's face.

"If they dare to do the first day of the lunar month, I dare to do the fifteenth!"

"Peace and tranquility are all that matters. If they dare to come to my lair, I'll destroy it beforehand!!"

"Gion, inform the entire Wano Country to prepare for war. Starting today, all foreign personnel will be prohibited from entering the ports of Hakumai."

"Those who disobey will be executed on the spot; no one can show mercy during this period."

"I want to see what tricks those five old zombies can pull."

"I see!"

The Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scooter) hangs up.

Barely suppressing his frustration, Bazel decided to test Buena Festa's words first.

After all, this incident happened suddenly and coincided with the grand banquet, so Bazeir couldn't help but overthink it.

"Buena Festa,"

As soon as the Den Den Mushi was connected, Bazel's cool voice came through.

"Bazaar? It's rare to get a call from you. Is there something you need?"

"You made a deal with the world government, didn't you?"

The Den Den Mushi's expression froze as soon as Bazel asked the question with such certainty.

"What the hell are you talking about? How could I possibly make a deal with them!"

"I've thought about it over and over again, but something still doesn't seem right."

Bazel's mutterings caused the Den Den Mushi to frequently wipe away sweat.

"You've chosen the West Blue as the location for the grand banquet, the hometown of the great pirate Rocks, and there's also the prize for the winner."

"That is, the treasures left behind by Lox."

Eleven years ago, Rocks went back to God Valley to save his wife and son. He failed, but not completely.

"His descendants may have survived, Buena Festa, tell me, what exactly is the winner's prize, that treasure left behind by Lox!"

The Den Den Mushi tries to hide its guilty conscience with its eerie, cacophonous laughter.

"That's something only the winners know, I wouldn't—"

"I see."

Bazel suddenly changed his expression, a cold smile appearing on his face.

"You're implicitly admitting that you're cooperating with the World Government, aren't you?"

"If you weren't working with the World Government, you would definitely argue with me, but you subconsciously wanted me to focus on the prizes, so you ignored my first and most important question."

Let me guess—

"The details of your deal with the World Government are roughly that you will use something related to Rocks to lure all of us great pirates to the West Blue so that they can successfully accomplish something."

"Combined with my title as the world's most vicious pirate, it's not hard to guess that their target is my lair."

"Buena Festa, you were the one who told the World Government the Beasts Pirates' hiding place, right? Where did you get this information from?"

The Den Den Mushi (snail phone) remained silent.

"If you don't want to answer, perhaps I can ask you another question: What benefits did you receive? And who is your partner?"

'

The Den Den Mushi licked its lips with its tongue, its pupils trembling: "No comment."

Viktor's people?

Or is he a member of the Riku clan?

Or perhaps————

Does Doflamingo in the North Sea know something about himself?

Bazel narrowed his eyes like a viper, a variety of guesses flashing through his mind.

"No comment? That's fine, just admit it, Buena Festa. You can spend the rest of your time hiding."

"If I find you, I will skin you alive and tear you apart. I will show you what a miserable end awaits those who eat my flesh and blood buns."

Before Buena Festa could speak again, Bazel hung up the Den Den Mushi.

Judging from the brief conversation, Buena Festa is very likely one of the instigators behind it all.

The chaos in the West Blue, the World Government's secret infiltration —

This will perfectly elevate the grandeur of the banquet.

The battle of the Great Pirates of the New World, coupled with the destruction of the Beast Pirates' stronghold, is very much in line with the warmongering character of Buena Festa.

Because of this, the Beasts Pirates will definitely be furious and will surely declare war on the World Government in the future.

This is exactly the future that Buena Festa wants to see.

It is highly likely that this is the second world war he has planned.

With the information deduced from Buena Festa, Bazel felt a little more confident and picked up the Den Den Mushi to dial the Giant King's number.

"Harald, do me a favor."

The Den Den Mushi paused for a moment, then said, "Go ahead."

"Come secretly to Wano Country in three months and help me guard my base."

Bazeir stated directly the purpose of his contact.

"I will have the Roger Pirates and Red Earl come to help."

The Den Den Mushi asked seriously, "What happened?"

"It's too early to say, but just in case, I just received news that the World Government seems to be planning to take action against the Beasts' lair during the grand banquet."

"If there is still no movement after the banquet, then you may all leave."

"If enemies come, don't be polite. It doesn't matter if you destroy Wano Country."

"Keep the enemy tied up in Wano Country, or I'm ready to flip the table."

"Since they're not going to let me have an easy time, I'll make sure no one has an easy time!"

"No problem, it's a small matter. I'll bring some people over to help you guard your hometown for a while."

"Thank you, Harald. I will personally go to Elbaf to express my gratitude later."

The Den Den Mushi hung up, and Bazel continued dialing the number.

Snap—

"I'm Bucky! Captain Roger and Rayleigh are fighting right now, I'm busy!"

"Bucky, it's me."

Upon hearing Bazel's voice, the Den Den Mushi showed a visibly stunned expression.

"It's very important to get Roger to answer the Den Den Mushi."

"Ah, yes, I understand, Captain Roger~~~"

Half a minute later, a drunken look appeared on Den Den Mushi's face.

"Hiccup~~ Bazel, what do you want? We just escaped from that bastard Garp."

"You owe me a favor, Roger.

Bazel and the Den Den Mushi stared at each other.

"At the end of the year, the Roger Pirates will come to Wano Country to help me guard my home for a while."

The drunken look on Den Den Mushi's face vanished instantly.

"Wano Country—so that's where you were hiding. But what exactly happened? I remember there's a grand banquet at the end of this year, right?"

Don't tell me you didn't receive a notification.

"Do you remember when I was wanted by the World Government as the world's most wanted pirate?"

Bazel didn't answer but asked a question in return.

Roger nodded in agreement.

"The World Government learned from Buena Festa that our Beasts Pirates were hiding in Wano Country, and they may be planning to raid my hideout during the grand banquet."

"Besides your Roger Pirates, there's also the Giant King Harald and Red Earl."

"Defend Wano Country for me before I return. This place cannot be lost; it is related to whether the sea will be free in the future."

"It doesn't matter if they don't come. You can all go your separate ways after we return. The favors you owe me will be settled in the same way."

Seeing how serious Barzel was, Den Den Mushi frowned.

"Are you planning to use this favor to make us miss this grand banquet?"

"Bazaar, where did you get this information? This grand banquet is not just a simple pirate gathering."

"The West Sea is Lox's hometown, and the winner's reward is also related to Lox."

"Now is not the time to explain these things!"

Bazel's eyes widened, and his tone became more forceful.

"Roger, are you going to help me with this or not?"

"—I understand. I will head to Wano Country as soon as possible."

The Den Den Mushi slowly exhaled.

"Rayle, have Doncino turn around, we're going back to the New World."

"Thanks, Roger. Once this is over, I'll tell you what you're interested in, including my plans."

The Den Den Mushi grinned and said, "Then I'll have high hopes. Don't worry, with us and Harald here, even if those bastards from the Knights of God come, it won't make a difference."

"Wan Country will definitely not be conquered before I die."

With Roger's promise, Bazel's anxiety was relieved.

"Let's stay in Wano Country for next year's New Year. I'll treat you all well."

"Oh! No problem, I'll definitely get you drunk, just you wait and see, Bazel!"

Snap—

The Den Den Mushi hung up and dialed again.

Before waiting for the Red Earl to connect, Bazel jumped onto the roof and gazed in the direction of the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.

"Come on, you bastard, I've got two Kings in my hand!"
