Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

Soon, after the entire Whitebeard Pirates crew landed, the captains led them toward the center of the island, while Reina went ahead to see what tricks Kaido and his crew had up their sleeves.

In addition, Brulee also used the power of the Mirror-Mirror Fruit to go ahead and enter the enemy's territory to see if she could find out any information.

Chapter 1348 Kaido's Resolve

Kaido, who had just returned from the port, took a large jar of fine wine from his subordinate and began to chug it down.

"Governor, what do we do now? The traps we set shouldn't be able to stop the Whitebeard Pirates!" Queen asked awkwardly.

The current situation arose precisely because his men failed to defend the port.

"What's your opinion?" Kaido asked Queen, putting down the wine jug he was holding.

“How about… we retreat to the New World? All the powerful guys are in the North Sea now, so the New World is a place we can mess around with as we please?” Quinn tried his best not to show his fear, pretending to be nonchalant as he spoke.

"Retreat to the New World?" King glanced at Queen and said, "You need to know why those powerful figures came to the North Blue! If we retreat from here, we'll never have the ability to fight back against the Whitebeard Pirates again!"

Kaido, who sat at the head of the table, did not speak, but the aura he exuded silenced both King and Queen.

"Bring Katakuri and the others out of the cell!" After a long pause, Kaido finally spoke.

"Governor?" King looked at Kaido in surprise. Did he want to make peace with the Whitebeard Pirates?

"If we are defeated, they will be buried with us; if we win... they will naturally join us!" Kaido chuckled and said.

“This…” Jhin and Quinn both hesitated for a moment. They were well aware of what this battle was all about.

This battle... to win... will be... very difficult!

However, since Kaido said that Katakuri and the others should be buried with him, then let them be buried with him!

Jhin was filled with fighting spirit, but Quinn's eyes were somewhat evasive.

However, Kaido didn't care. Although it was a life-or-death moment for the Beasts Pirates, he didn't care whether his subordinates wanted to escape or not. He just wanted to have a good fight.

His previous battle with Reina gave him a feeling he had never experienced before, so he knew that the only way to become stronger was to continue fighting Reina!

As for the pirates under his command, they are not important. He can even give up Queen, as long as he can become stronger and build a better Beast Pirates.

After everyone had left, preparing for their final battle with the Whitebeard Pirates, Kaido called out to King, who was about to depart, and whispered, "If I die in battle, you leave immediately, understand?"

"Governor?" King looked at Kaido in surprise, somewhat puzzled.

"Don't try to understand this. Just take care of your own life and don't die here! If things get really bad, you can trade Katakuri and the others' lives for it, understand?" Kaido said in a deep voice.

"Why?" King stared blankly at Kaido, not understanding what was going on.

Kaido smiled slightly and said, "You know what? After fighting Reina that day, I realized something! If you want to get stronger, you have to keep fighting, especially life-or-death battles!"

"Does the governor intend to use this war to break through his own limitations?" Jin asked upon hearing this.

Kaido nodded and replied with a smile, "I've been at the top for so long that I've forgotten how I got to where I am today! But my battle with Reina last time brought back that exhilarating feeling I had back then! You should know that Reina and I were crew members on the same ship back then, right? He was just a handyman, and I was just an apprentice!"

Jin didn't interrupt, but just listened quietly.

“But now, I realize that we have all stopped, but that guy hasn’t. He’s still moving forward! He’s still improving!” Kaido said softly.

King knew who Kaido was talking about. He had seen Reiner's growth clearly that day; he had indeed surpassed them and Kaido!

"So this is why the governor intends to fight to the death here?" After a long pause, Jin asked.

“That’s right!” Kaido grinned and said with a smile.

Seeing the smile on Kaido's face, King also smiled and replied, "Then let me accompany you on your adventure, big brother!"

"Hmm, oh ho ho... Alright!" Kaido didn't say anything more to make King leave, but instead agreed with King's words.

Soon, when Kaido and King appeared before the Beasts Pirates, they found their morale severely low. In just a short time, their first line of defense had already been breached by the Whitebeard Pirates.

“Governor, Reina is currently on the second line of defense. The Whitebeard Pirates crew behind him have already gone to meet up with him. If we want to retreat, we still have time!” Queen said as soon as he saw Kaido and King come out.

"Retreat?" Kaido smiled slightly and said, "The Whitebeard Pirates are not invincible! Men... come with me and drive the invaders out!"

"Oh~~~"

As Kaido finished speaking, the Beasts Pirates raised their weapons and shouted in agreement.

Seeing the improved morale, King nodded and said to Kaido, "Governor, I'll take my leave now!"

"Alright!" Kaido nodded, then shouted, "All troops... attack!"

On the other hand, after easily breaking through the Beasts Pirates' first line of defense, Reina felt something was off. It seemed too easy. What exactly was the Beasts Pirates up to?

"Breeze, can you hear me?" Reina whispered into the mirror on his chest.

"First mate, I can hear you. Just now, the entire Beast Pirates crew mobilized. King the Wildfire is rapidly approaching your direction. Please be careful!" Brulee's voice came from within the mirror shard.

"Oh? They've all been mobilized? Very good!" Reina smiled slightly and said, "Go find Katakuri and the others. Once you find them, notify me immediately, and I'll arrange for someone to meet you!"

"Okay!" Brulee breathed a sigh of relief and replied.

Her primary goal this time was to save Katakuri and the others; she wasn't so concerned about whether or not she could destroy Kaido's Beasts Pirates.

So after receiving Reina's instructions, Brulee began searching for Katakuri and the others. However, after searching the entire Beast Pirates' building, she still couldn't find Katakuri and the others. This made her anxious and scared, fearing that Kaido had already made a move against Katakuri and the others.

"Brûlée, I've located Katakuri and the others!" Just then, Izo's voice came from a mirror.

"Captain Izang? Where did you find it?" Brulee was taken aback, then asked in surprise.

Currently, apart from her, no one should have infiltrated the Beasts Pirates. Why was Izo able to discover Katakuri's whereabouts while he was attacking head-on?

However, this also put her at ease, at least Katakuri and the others were still safe.

Chapter 1349 Battlefield

After receiving the news that Katakuri and the others were still alive, Brulee had just breathed a sigh of relief when Izo's words made her heart jump again.

"The members of the Big Mom Pirates are all on the front lines right now!" Izo's words came from the mirror, making Brulee pause for a moment.

"The front lines? Could it be that Katakuri and the others have joined the Beasts Pirates?" Brulee asked, trembling.

If that's really the case, then this war is meaningless, at least not to her.

"No, they're being held captive. I guess they're trying to use them to threaten us!" Izang said with a smile.

"Phew~" Brulee breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'll be there right away!"

"Okay, be careful!" Izang replied with a smile.

Soon, when Brûlée arrived at the front lines using the Mirror World, the battle had already begun. Red lightning flashed across the sky from time to time, and two figures seemed to be fighting rapidly in the clouds. Brûlée knew that it must be the first mate and Kaido.

In addition, this place is a canyon, and the enemy has occupied the advantageous terrain and is launching a counterattack against the Whitebeard Pirates. The Whitebeard Pirates have not fully pushed forward, seemingly wanting to lure the enemy out before fighting.

At the end of the canyon, there is a high platform where all the officers of the Big Mom Pirates, including Katakuri, are imprisoned in several iron cages.

"Bree, is there a way to transport a group of people over there? Or help us take control of the high ground? They have the advantage of terrain now, and it will be difficult for us to rush over directly!" As soon as Bree appeared, Vista came over.

“No problem!” Bry nodded and replied, “But they have a lot of people on the other side. How many people do we need to transport over? And even with my help, it will be difficult to open up and occupy their territory without a strong person to break through the situation!”

"Izo, take two captains and five pirate crews and take the high ground on the left. Any questions?" Vista asked after a moment's thought.

“Leave it to me!” Izo nodded and replied.

“Okay!” Brulee didn’t waste any words and directly opened the mirror space. After her ability was awakened, she was different from before. She could enter the mirror world without touching her body. She could open something like a portal to let people outside into the mirror world.

As Izo and the others entered the Mirror World, Brulee greeted Vista and then followed them in.

The portal-like structure disappeared after Brûlée entered the Mirror World.

Before long, Vista, who was keeping a close eye on the situation on both sides, noticed that things were starting to get chaotic.

"Attack!" Vista shouted, raising his rapier.

Oh~~

The Whitebeard Pirates launched a major offensive.

In mid-air, King, who was watching Kaido's battle, immediately noticed the change on the battlefield.

"Quinn, go to the high ground to help!" King didn't dare to leave. If Kaido fell into a disadvantageous position, he would have to go and help at any time, so he could only ask Queen to go and help.

Queen, who was smoking a cigar, was somewhat reluctant when he heard this, but he still led his men over. As long as they could eliminate those Whitebeard Pirates members who had suddenly appeared, they would still have a chance of victory.

However, when he saw the three captains and five ship captains on the high and low sides, he immediately had the idea of ​​retreating. The Flying Six were already completely suppressed, and even if he went over, he would not be able to resolve the battle in a short time.

"Damn the Whitebeard Pirates! I'm going to kill you all!" Queen, in a fit of rage, roared and charged forward with his men.

Anyway, he planned to do his best. If he died because things weren't going well, then he would have no choice but to run away.

During the battle against the extraterrestrials, he followed Kaido closely, fighting to the death without retreating. And what happened? They were all captured!

What about those who sensed trouble and fled beforehand? They all escaped successfully!

So ever since last time, he's decided that in a losing game, what's most important? Seeing is what matters most. Running away early will invite resentment, but running away too late is pointless.

Moreover, during battle, one must give one's all so that when one flees, one can have a justifiable reason to say, "It's not that I didn't try, but that the enemy was too strong, and I'm fleeing for the sake of the future!"

On the other hand, Izan was caught off guard by Queen's sudden support, leaving them isolated. If Vista and the others wanted to rescue them, they would have to break through the Beast Pirates' defenses.

Although the absence of a high point on the defensive line has improved the situation for Vista, it will still take time to break through the opponent's defense.

Seeing this, Brulee, who was hiding in the mirror space, knew that something was wrong. So she quickly used the mirror space to find Vista, who was directing the battle, and told him about the situation on Izo's side.

"No, make them buy me a little more time, and I'll break through their lines soon!" Vista said through gritted teeth.

“How about… we send Captain Jingu to provide support? We have enough troops here. Losing a captain will only prolong the breakthrough time, but it can relieve the pressure over there, allowing them to hold out longer and preventing them from being defeated by Quinn!” Brulee said after thinking for a moment.

“Alright!” Vista nodded without hesitation and said, “Take Kingdo over there and have them stall for time! If that doesn’t work… then you take them and retreat!”

"Understood!" Upon seeing this, Brulee didn't waste any words and went straight to King Gudo's side to explain the situation to him.

"Let's go!" Jinguduo didn't waste any more words. Since Brulee had come to ask for help, it proved that the situation on the other side was definitely not good. If they wasted time here, Izang might run into trouble.

Meanwhile, in the skies above the battlefield, Reina was engaged in battle with Kaido.

"Kaido... I really didn't expect that your strength has increased again in just a few days since the last battle. It's unbelievable!" After fighting for a long time, Reina found that Kaido's strength seemed to have become even stronger.

"Hehehe... I was born to fight! Reina, this time I will defeat you!" Kaido laughed loudly. In his half-beast form, Kaido swung his spiked club and attacked Reina.

"Naive!" Reina chuckled, waving his Hyōrinmaru, which gathered countless ice elements, intending to envelop Kaido.

"Boom~~~"

A violent explosion rang out, and the shattered ice elements in the sky scattered like snowflakes. Kaido floated in the air, surrounded by fiery clouds. This was a newly developed technique that allowed him to fly even in his half-beast form.
