Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

"We must bring Master Kang out; we can't let his body remain here!" Xiao Ren said firmly, tears streaming down her face.

Chapter 556 The Shadow in the Dark

Seeing the Kang family die before his eyes, the enraged Zoro was no longer willing to let it go. Although he only had two weapons at hand, Zoro believed that dealing with Orochi and these henchmen was still no problem.

But Sanji stopped him before he could make a move.

"Don't do anything reckless! Think about what the Kang family risked their lives for!" Sanji stopped Zoro and said seriously.

"Seven hundred and twenty troublesome phoenixes!" But after carefully considering his relationship with the Kang family and their final actions, Zoro still made his move.

"This is bad, everyone. The capital is going to be in chaos, and we definitely won't be able to stay here any longer!" Nami knew things were in trouble as soon as she saw Zoro make his move.

“So let’s find a place to meet, in case things get chaotic and we get separated!” Robin nodded and said.

"when!"

Zoro's flying slash was blocked by a man with a pompadour hairstyle. He was none other than Kyoshiro, the current head of all the yakuza bosses and the head of the Kyoshiro family!

"Your Majesty, you're so careless! You only brought so few guards with you when you went out!" Kyoshiro said to Zoro, but then turned to the giant snake behind him.

"That ronin... he wanted to kill me!" Orochi was still in shock.

Although many people in Wano Country wanted him dead, almost everyone had reservations, and very few actually made a move against him.

"What are you thinking, you brat? Calm down!" Sanji yelled at Zoro as soon as he saw Zoro actually make a move.

However, Zoro remained unmoved.

Just as Sanji was about to say something more, Drake attacked him directly, so Sanji had no choice but to deal with Drake first.

"Damn it! Everyone, fire!" Orochi, having finally realized what was happening, was furious and ordered all his subordinates to kill Zoro.

"I'm leaving this to you!" Zoro said softly, without any panic.

"No problem!" Franky appeared out of nowhere and stood directly in front of Zoro. As a cyborg, these guns couldn't hurt him at all.

Then, Franky picked up the "Kang family" from the ground and fled the scene.

Zoro, however, relentlessly charged towards the giant snake.

"Quickly escort the general back to the city!" Kyoshiro, who was blocking Zoro's way, ordered his subordinates to take Orochi away, while he himself faced off against Zoro.

"Get out of my way!" Enraged, Zoro didn't care who was in front of him at this moment.

"That won't do! Who told me... I'm the general's dog!" Kyoshiro blocked Zoro's attack and said with a smile.

Zoro narrowed his eyes. The brief exchange had already made him realize that his opponent was not weak.

In addition, Zoro is not at his peak right now, so he is unable to break through Kyoshiro's blockade for the time being.

"How does it feel? Look how chaotic the entire capital has become because of you!" Atop a building in the Flower Capital, a figure shrouded in a black trench coat chuckled as he spoke to the Kang family beside him.

"Who exactly are you? Are you friend or foe? And why did you save me?" Kang Jia looked at the situation below. Although it was chaotic, it was Zoro and his group who were fighting, and no civilians were involved. So he directly asked the man in the trench coat next to him.

"Me? I just can't stand your tendency to threaten suicide at the drop of a hat! From now on, consider yourself dead and don't appear in front of anyone again until the Wano Country incident is over! Otherwise... I will kill you again before I die!" the man in the trench coat said calmly.

"I understand!" Kang Jia nodded and said, "Although I don't know who you are, I can never repay your kindness! I will absolutely not bring any trouble upon you!"

He assumed that the other party didn't want to attract Orochi and Kaido's attention, which was why they made that request.

The man in the trench coat didn't explain, but instead picked up the Kang family member and disappeared from the spot.

Meanwhile, Luffy, who was watching the light show at the quarry, was shouting encouragement to Zoro. He had already learned about the artificial Devil Fruit SMILE from Hyogoro, so he hated Orochi.

"Heh... So that's Straw Hat Luffy's accomplice? They actually dared to try to kill Orochi! How interesting!" Queen, with a cigar in his mouth, chuckled as he looked at the light painting and Luffy, who was jumping around in front of him.

"Lord Quinn! The sinners from the Flower Capital have arrived!" Just then, a jailer came to report that new sinners had arrived.

"Who is it? Babanuki!" Quinn asked his subordinate, startled.

"It was made by the Man-Slaying Demon Scythe who failed in his mission in the Flower Capital. General Orochi instructed us to hand him over here for disposal!" Babanuki, who has an elephant's head on his chest, thought for a moment and then replied directly, "And we also captured Kid, who escaped from prison, along the way!"

"You troublemaker? Didn't you manage to escape? Why are you walking right back into our trap?" Luffy asked Kid in surprise from the arena.

"You seem to have stopped laughing out loud sometime in the past because you hated your own laughter, right?" Kidd looked up at the man-slaying demon, Scythe, who was walking ahead of him, and asked.

“Fa fa fa…” The man-slaying demon scythe who was walking in front did not answer, but just laughed loudly.

"Those guys who mocked your voice back then have been beaten half to death by you. And I don't know when it started, but you started wearing a mask and hiding your face! But... what's wrong with you now? Did Kaido do something to you after we separated? Or Orochi? Ah! Answer me! Killer!" Kidd roared angrily at the man who had been killed.

“Fa fa fa…” Kira, the Demon Slayer, or rather Kira, laughed until tears streamed down his face, but he still didn’t say a word.

"What...what did they do to you?" Kidd roared, his face grim as he stared at Kira. "Who turned you into this? Who did this to my partner?"

"Kira? Wearing a mask?" Luffy, standing on the arena, finally realized that the guy with the strange smile in front of him was Kid's partner. Seeing Kid's angry expression, Luffy's face also turned serious.

He couldn't imagine what he would do if someone treated his partner like that!

All I can say is that he'll definitely be even crazier than Kidd when the time comes.

"So he wanted to save SMILE's comrades! How pathetic!" Hyogoro shook his head and sighed as he spoke.

Immediately afterward, as punishment for Kidd's escape, Quinn fished him and Kira upside down at the same time, then put their heads into a tank of water so that they couldn't breathe and would suffocate to death in no time.

"Oh, right, I've got a fun idea!" Queen, cigar in mouth, looked at Luffy and Hyogoro and said, "Whenever you two are defeated, I'll pull them up! Do you think... that makes sense? Hahaha..."

"Damn it, I have nothing to do with those two!" Luffy immediately objected.

“Of course, I think so too, but why are you wavering now? Is it because they are your comrades-in-arms who fought in the same era? If that’s the case, it wouldn’t be a bad idea for you to die now! Hahaha…” Quinn said with a smug laugh.

"Since that's the case, then come on up here! Once I knock you away, it'll all be over!" Luffy shouted, throwing a punch directly at Queen.

"Naive!" Queen slapped Luffy's fist away, laughing mockingly. "Who do you think you're talking to? What makes you think you still have a chance? Don't you know who your opponents are? Do you really think you can beat us? I don't know how many fools like this I see every year! You're all destined to die here!"

"Stop talking nonsense! I'll decide where I die!" Luffy shouted at Queen.

But at that moment, a tremor suddenly came from outside the prison gate.

"Red bean soup..." It turned out that Chopper and the others, who had brought Charlotte Linlin, had arrived at this very moment.

"Boom boom boom~~~"

A series of tremors resounded as the prison gates were breached one after another.

"Who is it?" Quinn looked toward the gate.

"Mmm~ I think I smell red bean soup, Tama, come quick!" When Charlotte Linlin walked into the prison, everyone's mouths dropped open in surprise, including Luffy. They couldn't understand why she was there.

Chapter 557 The Strength of the Old Lady

"Why...why is Big Mom here? Didn't I hear their ship sank?" Even Queen was stunned when he saw Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors, appear.

"Waaaaaahh ...

"Why would the captain of the Big Mom Pirates, one of the Four Emperors who can rival Kaido, be here?"

At this moment, the jailers were all so surprised that they could only shout loudly.

"Huh? She broke through so easily?" Even though he was mentally prepared, Chopper was still a little taken aback when he saw the old lady casually destroy the three gates of the quarry.

"I really didn't expect the gate to be breached so easily. We were still discussing how to get in!" Ajuku was also surprised. However, the gate was breached so easily that she still didn't have a direct impression of the old lady's strength.

"Great! Now we can go in and rescue our brother!" Ayu said happily.

"No! Tama, you and Momonosuke-sama, just stay here and wait!" However, Kiku refused to let them in.

"Huh? Why?" Xiaoyu puffed out her cheeks in dissatisfaction.

Momonosuke, on the other hand, looked regretful, but it was obvious to everyone that he completely agreed with this, because he simply didn't dare to go in.

"The one in charge of this place is Queen the Plague, one of the three calamities of the Kaido Pirates! So... Mr. Chopper, we must be extremely careful on this trip!" Kiku said solemnly.

Chopper nodded. He was well aware of the dangers of this trip, and with Big Mom potentially regaining her memories at any moment, Chopper was even more cautious than Kiku.

"You were just... talking about red bean soup?" However, at this moment, in the quarry, Quinn asked the old woman with an angry expression.

“That’s right, hurry up and bring it out for me! I heard that... you can get lots of red bean soup here, so I came all this way!” The woman nodded and replied earnestly.

"What a joke! Who just took it upon themselves to say that?" Quinn said, his size suddenly increasing until he transformed into a gigantic Brachiosaurus. He roared, "You know perfectly well that red bean soup is my favorite, yet you still dare to be so presumptuous?"

"No, Lord Quinn is about to lose his mind!"

“That’s too bad!”

The jailers standing nearby were nearly driven mad. If Quinn were to go berserk, the entire quarry might be destroyed!

"Hey! Hold on, before you two can argue over something so trivial, that troublemaker over there is going to drown!" Luffy pointed at Kid and Killer, who had been submerged and hadn't been pulled up yet, and shouted to Queen, "Pull them up first!"

"What do you mean by 'that kind of thing'...?" At this point, Quinn was basically out of control. He had just learned of the death of one of his two greatest loves, Little Purple, and now someone else was trying to take away his only remaining and only love—red bean soup!

How can you expect Quinn not to be angry!

"Are you trying to fight?" But who is this old lady? Even with amnesia, she won't tolerate anyone, especially when it comes to food. Anyone who dares to obstruct her is an enemy.

"Wait, Lord Quinn! Going against the old lady over food could lead to disaster!" Babanuki tried to stop Quinn, but Quinn wouldn't listen.

"There's plenty of red bean soup, but it's all mine... You won't get a single drop! Old woman!" Quinn, now transformed into a Brachiosaurus, yelled at the aunties.

"Stop talking nonsense and hand over the red bean soup...!" The old woman was not afraid at all and jumped up and shoved it down on Quinn's head.

"Boom boom boom~~~" In an instant, the old lady shoved Quinn's head into the ground with just one hand.

This left Charlotte Linlin, who had just arrived and was worried that Chopper and Kiku had become gentler due to amnesia, speechless as she watched them bully her.

"This...this is Ah Ling's strength?" Ah Ju swallowed hard, asking in disbelief.

She knew Queen very well. It could be said that in the entire Wano Country, apart from Kaido, no one could order him to do anything. Although he was not the strongest among the three Lightships, he was not far from being as strong as the strongest, King the Wildfire.

But now, such a strong person was actually pressed into the ground by an old lady with one hand, which was really hard for Aju to accept.

Chopper nodded with tears in his eyes and said, "Now you know what kind of monster you brought here! Let me tell you, if she stays on our side, our chances of winning against Kaido will increase by fifty percent!"

"Lord Quinn!"

"Give me... the red bean soup...!"

At that moment, the old woman who had already knocked Quinn down didn't stop. Instead, she grabbed Quinn's head and started spinning him around before throwing Quinn's massive body out.

"Boom boom boom..."

After the violent tremor, Quinn, who had reverted to human form, lay motionless on the ground.

"Oh no... Oh no! Udon is in danger! Quick... Quick, contact Kaido!" The guards were all terrified as they looked at the motionless Queen.
