Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

King and Queen's performances are within her expectations, but there might be a change in Kaido's situation, because she has discovered that Kaido truly doesn't care about the Whitebeard Pirates.

If it were Whitebeard himself or Reyner here today, he might be a little wary, but it's just Brulee. Even if what she said wasn't necessarily true, he wouldn't care.

But there's no time for Brûlée to think it over, so she has no choice but to proceed according to plan.

Chapter 1333 Reina's Doubts

"Boom!" Just as Brulee was thinking about how to attract the other party's attention, an explosion suddenly came from not far away, drawing everyone's attention.

"A great opportunity!"

Without a word, Brulee vanished from her spot in a flash, and when she reappeared, she was already next to Smoothie. Before Smoothie could react, she pulled her into the mirror dimension. Katakuri instantly understood Brulee's plan, and while staying away from Kaido, he also prepared to cooperate with Brulee.

But just as Brulee reached out from the mirror world to take Katakuri away, King suddenly appeared, kicked Katakuri, and pulled Brulee out of the mirror space as well.

"You don't actually think you can escape from us with such a simple plan, do you?" King, in his pterosaur form, looked at Katakuri and Brulee lying on the ground and asked softly.

If Katakuri were at his peak, he could have avoided it, but after fighting Kaido for so long, he was powerless to evade King's attacks.

As for Kaido, he didn't move at all, watching Brulee and Katakuri's performance the whole time. Before Brulee appeared, King had already told Kaido that as long as he kept an eye on Katakuri, he didn't need to worry about anything else. No matter what methods the other side used, it would all be in vain.

That's why they captured Katakuri when he came to rescue him.

"Kaido, Brulee is one of Whitebeard's women. Let her go!" Katakuri, who was slowly getting up, said to Kaido, who was standing there, "You should know Whitebeard's character. If you mess with his people, he won't stand idly by. Your target is only us. There's no need to attack Brulee!"

Now that the rescue operation has failed, Katakuri only hopes that Brulee can leave safely.

But Kaido answered him with the weapon in his hand.

“Admiral…” Looking at Katakuri and Brulee lying on the ground, King frowned and said, “If she really is one of Whitebeard’s people, we’d better not touch her!”

"Hehehe... It's alright. Even if it's true, Newgate can't possibly come in person. At most, the captain or Reina will make a trip! We'll just return them to them then!" Kaido waved his hand dismissively.

"That's right, who knows if she's telling the truth or not? Maybe she's just a small fry in the Whitebeard Pirates!" After dealing with Oven and the others, Queen came over with the Flying Six and said with a smile.

"How's it going? Is everything sorted out over there?" Jhin asked with a smile as he saw Quinn approaching.

"Hmph, just a bunch of idiots. Apart from a few small fry, we've basically got all the cadres!" Quinn nodded and replied.

"Perfect timing, we've finished here too!" King looked at Kaido and asked, "Admiral, should we take this island?"

Kaido waved his hand and replied, "No need. Just take everyone back. What's the use of this island? It's so boring. I'll head back now!"

The battle wasn't as intense as he'd imagined, and the fact that his opponent was using tricks on him made Kaido somewhat annoyed.

Watching Kaido transform into his dragon form and fly back, King and Queen exchanged a glance but remained silent.

"Put this person in solitary confinement! Also, find out as soon as possible whether she is a member of the Whitebeard Pirates!" King said to his subordinates, pointing at the unconscious Brulee.

"Yes, sir!" The Beasts Pirates immediately came over, helped Brulee up, and escorted her back.

“Hey, the admiral said he doesn’t want this island, so let the kids have some fun!” Quinn said with a smirk, a cigar dangling from his lips.

Jhin turned and glanced at Quinn, saying softly, "I don't care about you, but don't go too far!"

After saying that, Jhin left with his men. He still needed to escort Katakuri and the others back. Quinn was supposed to go back with them, but judging from Quinn's appearance, he probably didn't plan to go back now, so he didn't wait for Quinn. After gathering everyone, he left directly.

Half a day later, Frank on Crescent Island received a message from the intelligence department saying that their captain, Brûlée, could not be contacted. At first, Frank thought that Brûlée had gone to do something, but by evening, he still could not contact her. At this point, Frank realized that something had probably happened to Brûlée, so he immediately reported it to Whitebeard.

"Hmm? Brûlée?" Upon hearing Frank's report, Whitebeard frowned and said, "Since when have we lost contact with her?"

He knew that the Big Mom Pirates had encountered some problems before, and Brulee was helping out there, but Reina had left later, so he hadn't paid attention to it.

Brulee reported back to him, but Whitebeard only heard the gist of it and didn't take it to heart.

"Contact Reina and ask him if he knows anything about Brulee!" Whitebeard said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Father!" Frank nodded and turned to leave.

Reina is currently stationed at the front-line base, so Frank would have to go to the liaison office to contact him.

“Brubrubrubrubru…”

At the tavern in the front-line camp, Reina was drinking with Sachi.

"Moshi moshi... This is Reina!" Reina casually took out a Den Den Mushi and answered the call.

"First mate, it's me, Frank!" Frank quickly replied upon hearing Reina's voice. "Since noon, the intelligence department has been unable to contact Brulee. I just went to see my father, and he told me to ask him if you know anything!"

"What? You mean you can't get in touch with Brulee?" Reina put down his wine glass and asked in surprise.

The Whitebeard Pirates members around him all looked at Reina. Thatch even put down his wine glass. Brûlée was now the head of their intelligence department, with the same status as the captains.

“Yes, around noon, the intelligence department started losing contact with her!” Frank nodded, confirming again.

“That’s not right!” Reina frowned and said, “She spoke to me this morning, saying she was going to the Big Mom Pirates’ place, and Pudding also contacted her, but I didn’t hear her say anything about it!”

"The Big Mom Pirates?" Frank was taken aback. He knew about the incident involving the Big Mom Pirates, which was resolved by the vice-captain. Could something have gone wrong there?

At this moment, Reina also remembered that when he spoke with Brulee, Brulee mentioned Katakuri's unusual behavior, which seemed to indicate that something had happened to the Big Mom Pirates.

"Alright, I know about this. I'll send someone over to take a look. Don't worry about things over there. Also, please help handle the intelligence department's matters first!" Reina said after thinking for a moment.

Fanlan was originally Brulee's superior, so the intelligence department wouldn't be in too much trouble without Brulee. Also, regarding Brulee, Reina gave Frank some instructions.

He didn't know if Bryn had made any arrangements, and if she hadn't, it could be bad if Bryn encountered the World Government.

"Okay, I understand!" Frank nodded in understanding.

Chapter 1334 Let's Start the War

Upon learning that Brulee was unreachable, Reina immediately sent people to the Big Mom Pirates to find out what had happened.

Those who arrived at the Big Mom Pirates' territory found the island had been turned into a wasteland.

Seeing the island completely ruined and littered with corpses, the Whitebeard Pirates' intelligence personnel immediately reported the situation to Reina!

"What did you say? The Big Mom Pirates are gone? That place is now ruins?" Reina asked, his eyes wide with disbelief.

"Yes, we haven't seen a single living person yet. There are scraps and broken limbs everywhere. It must have been a fierce battle!" the intelligence officer replied in a deep voice.

He knew what his purpose in coming here was to find their minister, so the scene before him made his heart sink to the bottom.

"First mate... Could it be that the Big Mom Pirates have been wiped out by extraterrestrials?" the intelligence officer asked in a low voice.

“That shouldn’t be the case!” Reina pondered for a moment and said, “If it was extraterrestrials who did it, then you shouldn’t be able to land on the island now. Their goal is the island; they wouldn’t take over the territory and leave!”

His first reaction upon hearing the news was suspicion that it was from outer space, but he quickly dismissed that notion.

If they were truly extraterrestrial visitors, they would have no reason to leave, and Brulee would certainly have sought help.

However, he has not received any distress call from Brûlée, which means that either Brûlée was immediately taken control of by the other party, or Brûlée thought there was no need to ask for help, but ended up being taken advantage of by the other party.

Therefore, Reina's first suspect changed from the extraterrestrial visitor to Charlotte Linlin.

In his view, something must have gone wrong during the transport, which led to BIGMOM's return.

Only Big Mom would harbor such deep hatred for the Big Mom Pirates, going so far as to wipe out everyone on the island.

However, if Big Mom was in a state of mental confusion, she shouldn't have been able to wipe out Katakuri and the others. At worst, they could have escaped without any problem, otherwise they wouldn't have planned to kill Big Mom in the first place.

Especially for Brulee, with the powerful weapon of the Mirror Space, she can escape at any time.

So what happened that prevented Brulee from running away or seeking help?

We have too little information and clues at the moment, so Reina can't be sure what happened. He can only send intelligence personnel to the scene to see if they can find any clues.

Unfortunately, the intelligence personnel searched the entire island but found no living people. All the buildings were basically destroyed, and they couldn't even find the battlefield. The only discovery they made was a lot of mirror fragments found at the scene, which they suspected were used by Brulee.

However, they called out to the mirror but received no response, so they had no choice but to truthfully report the situation to Reina.

"Let's search for any trace of Brulee. I'll also send people over to assist. Whether she's alive or dead, we must get to the bottom of this!" Reina said before hanging up the Den Den Mushi.

"What happened to Brulee?" Sachi asked quickly after seeing Reina hang up the Den Den Mushi.

Reina didn't hide anything and told the whole story.

“That is indeed a bit strange! But don’t worry, wiping out the entire Big Mom Pirates is not something just anyone can do, and judging from the intelligence, it shouldn’t be something that one or two people could do, otherwise they wouldn’t have turned the whole island into ruins!” Sachi said after thinking for a moment.

“That makes sense. Since the other side is also carrying out a large-scale operation, there must be people around who will notice. Let’s send someone over to find out!” Reina said, stroking his chin.

The next day, the news quickly spread back, because the Beasts Pirates had dispatched quite a few pirate ships, and just as Reina had guessed, someone had spotted them.

“Brother, that’s how it is. The destruction of the Big Mom Pirates was probably Kaido’s doing, and Brulee is very likely in his hands as well!” After figuring out the situation, Reina immediately contacted Whitebeard.

"In that case, go contact Kaido and see what he says. If Brulee is dead in their hands, then prepare for war. If Brulee is still in their hands, then make them release her!" Whitebeard said without hesitation.

“Okay, I understand!” Reina nodded and replied.

After a day of fermentation, the news of the Beasts Pirates' annihilation of the Big Mom Pirates began to spread, but the spread was not wide, only around the Big Mom Pirates' base.

After receiving Whitebeard's message, Reina planned to contact Kaido, but he was afraid that Kaido would ignore him if he sent someone over, so Reina had no choice but to go there himself.

After giving Sachi some instructions, he decided to go to the Beasts Pirates alone.

However, Sachi disagreed with Reina's plan. He believed that it would be too dangerous for Reina to go alone. He suggested that Reina should at least bring some people with him, even if he didn't bring a few captains.

Finally, with no other choice, Reina had to take Aiboita's pirate crew to the Beasts Pirates.

Aiboita was a pirate who followed Whitebeard a long time ago. Later, after he had a group of followers, he formed his own pirate crew and made a name for himself in the New World.

"Reina, why do you think Kaido is targeting the Big Mom Pirates?" Aiboita asked Reina, somewhat bored, on the way.

“I don’t know!” Reina shook his head and said, “Logically speaking, Kaido has no reason to take action against Katakuri and the others, especially Brûlée. She’s one of us now, and I believe she must have told Kaido that she’s from another country!”

As Reina headed towards the Beasts Pirates, he also sent people to quickly gather information about them. Since the Beasts Pirates and the Big Mom Pirates were defeated by extraterrestrial visitors, their strength had declined significantly, so Reina hadn't paid much attention to them, and the intelligence department hadn't been able to gather any information about them.

It seems that the Beasts Pirates are different from the Big Mom Pirates; they haven't been greatly affected, and Reina even suspects that they've been doing quite well during this time.

Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense that Big Mom had just been overthrown by Katakuri and his crew, and then Kaido immediately made his move.

"Kaido actually dared to attack Brulee? Is he an idiot? Does he think he can start a war with us now?" Aiboita asked, puzzled.

“Who knows?” Reina chuckled, a cold glint in his eyes, and said, “That’s why I’m going to see him for myself, to see what he’s up to!”

If Kaido really kills Brulee, then Reina will definitely turn around and leave, because Whitebeard said that if Brulee dies, then war will begin!

Chapter 1335 The Strength of the Whitebeard Pirates

Soon, Reina brought Aiboita to the sea area where the Beasts Pirates were located, but they were discovered by the Beasts Pirates' spies as soon as they arrived.

Last time, they suffered from a lack of intelligence and were caught off guard by the extraterrestrial visitors. Therefore, this time, the Beast Pirates have made their sea area extremely secure in order to prevent the enemy from having any chance.
