I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

"If the plan goes smoothly... the strength of the warriors of the giant nations is enough to hold back the main force of the Lox fleet, and there is even a possibility of victory."

The naval officers nodded solemnly in agreement.

"That's right, that's the land of giants. The strength of the giant warriors is beyond doubt."

For 800 years, the giant nations have been in constant conflict with the World Government. Among them, the giant nation of Elbaf is known as having the world's strongest military force, a title earned through sheer strength.

More than twenty years ago, Sister Carmel mediated between humans and giants, becoming a bridge for communication, and the situation gradually eased.

"Elbaf is not the only country of giants."

"It is said that in that sea area, there exists a kingdom of ancient giants, whose size is several times that of ordinary giants, as well as a kingdom of hybrid races, the fish giants..."

The admiral raised his hand in a gesture of restraint, silencing the others' discussion.

"Then, the plan is set."

"I will communicate with CP and have them spread the message among the giant kingdoms."

"Meanwhile, the Navy dispatched a fleet in two groups: one main fleet attacked the Rocks Pirates' headquarters, while the other attempted to intercept Rocks en route..."

Whatever Lockes' plan is, we cannot let him succeed!

Amidst the discussions, a major event is about to unfold, engulfing the world's strongest pirate crew, the Rocks Pirates, the world's strongest force, the Navy, and the world's strongest nation, Elbaf.

........

As the storm raged, Sig and his men landed at the small camp and met with Ivan, the king of Pleasure Street.

However, upon seeing Ivan's slightly stiff expression and the dozens of his subordinates behind him...

Sig glanced at the massive fleet of dozens of pirate ships beside him out of the corner of his eye and realized that something was amiss.

Chapter 754 Lox's Purpose

Inside the towering wooden house of the giant.

Sig and Ivan sat facing each other.

However, Sig's side had more people and a more dangerous aura.

In comparison, Ivan's side appeared weak and outnumbered. Seeing the overwhelming numbers on Rocks' side, Ivan's smile froze slightly.

He glanced silently at Stusi, who was standing beside him, out of the corner of his eye.

Despite having the advantage of numbers, Lox showed no signs of turning against them yet, so he could only suppress his anxiety and try to test the waters.

"What exactly does Rocks want to do?"

This question lingered in Ivan's mind.

And Sieg's thoughts were similar.

Comparing the number of men he and Ivan brought, he felt that he might have revealed a slight flaw.

"The more you say, the more mistakes you make."

"Let's try to speak as little as possible and find out the true purpose of this trip..."

Thinking this to himself, Sieg put on a stern face and waited quietly without uttering a word.

Both sides remained silent, and the atmosphere gradually became tense.

Finally, it was Ivan who broke the silence.

He glanced at the dozens of pirate ships anchored along the shore in the distance behind Sigurd, and made a gesture of remark:

"Rocks, you brought quite a few people with you on this mission... As expected of the overlord of the seas, the strongest pirate crew in the world, you can easily assemble such a powerful fleet."

"Such a powerful fleet is probably enough to wage war against the giant nation of Elbaf, isn't it?"

Ivan was testing the purpose of "Lox".

For the sea tyrant Rocks to mobilize a fleet of this size, it was clear that he wasn't just here for a stroll. Ivan suspected that Rocks had other motives.

Even if it's a case of double-crossing, such a force is a waste of its potential.

“That’s right.” Sig continued, following up on his words:

"Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit. I, Lox, will never do anything I'm not sure I can win."

He paused halfway through his sentence, then added, "Besides, this is the territory of the giants."

"With so many people here, things can definitely be handled properly."

When Sieg's voice was directed at the giants, it became more forceful.

He was also probing Ivan and the original Lockes' purpose for this trip.

From the moment the longbread mentioned this small camp, he had already been guessing what Lox and Ivan's purpose was.

The fact that two important figures like Lox and Ivan could conspire together and come to the giants' territory suggests that their discussion was most likely related to the giants.

Ivan's expression changed slightly.

"Lox, this isn't what we agreed on, is it?"

"Our goal was clearly just to infiltrate Elbaf's capital and seize a large quantity of Logia-type fruits..."

"You already have enough powerful warriors under your command, so achieving our goals shouldn't be difficult. However, such a large fleet could easily cause problems..."

Sig narrowed his eyes; Ivan had finally revealed the truth.

He felt slightly more at ease, but more doubts arose in his mind.

A large number of Logia-type Devil Fruits?

This is indeed a considerable fortune, enough to tempt even powerful figures like Lox.

Logia-type Devil Fruits are the most powerful and rarest type.

Even the most ordinary Logia-type Devil Fruit user can become invulnerable to all physical attacks by transforming into an element, making them virtually invincible against opponents who haven't yet mastered Haki.

"Are there a large number of Logia-type Devil Fruits in the Elbaf Giant Kingdom...? Ivan, even now I find it hard to believe this news."

"After all, it is the rarest and most powerful type of fruit."

Sieg remained calm, glancing at Ivan as he probed further.

“My sources are confidential, but highly reliable,” Ivan explained patiently.

“To joke with someone like you is to commit suicide, of course I would not do such a thing.”

"Logia-type Devil Fruits aren't as rare as people imagine. It's just that over the years, only a small number of Logia-type Devil Fruits have been reborn and circulated in the outside world..."

With Ivan's explanation, Sig roughly guessed what had happened.

Rocks' original plan was probably to cooperate with Ivan, lead a small group of powerful individuals to break into the giant kingdom of Elbaf, and seize the so-called large number of Logia-type Devil Fruits.

Ivan, the king of the underworld, provides information, while the Rocks Pirates provide strong fighters to participate in the battle.

The differences between the two sides are roughly as follows...

The fleet led by Sieg was too large; it didn't seem like they were there to plunder, but rather to launch a full-scale war.

This is something that Sieg doesn't quite understand.

"These troops are just there to deter the giants...and to provide support from the outside," Sieg explained forcefully.

“I have absolutely no intention of getting entangled with the giants; it’s too much trouble.”

Ivan looked up at Sig and saw his serious expression, but he was still skeptical.

Logically speaking, Lox has the numbers and the power to prevail over his opponents.

Although Locke's reasoning was somewhat far-fetched, as long as it was acceptable on the surface and there was no sign of double-crossing, Ivan wouldn't argue with Locke to his face.

He sighed inwardly.

"There's no time to lose, Lox, let's get going as soon as possible," Ivan said.

"The destination is Elbaf, the land of giants."

“This island, called Small Camp, is already within the territory of the giants. Your fleet is too large. The longer you stay here, the greater the risk of being discovered by the giants.”

“Once the giants of Elbaf become wary, they will be difficult to deal with.”

“Not bad.” Sig nodded as well. The two of them stood up and walked out of the wooden house.

At that moment, from the direction of the coast came the sounds of arguing and the clanging of metal.

Two tall and burly figures wielded spiked clubs and giant swords, locked in a fierce battle. Each clash of weapons sent sparks flying and the swirling winds nearly knocked over the pirates watching the spectacle.

It was Kaido and Big Mom.

The two fought fiercely for a long time and both had wounds on their bodies, but their fighting spirit showed no signs of waning.

Ivan gazed at this scene from afar, his heart filled with emotion:

"The Rocks Pirates, just as rumored..."

But when he took a closer look at the two people fighting, his expression suddenly froze.

BIGMOM Charlotte Linlin!

Ivan broke out in a cold sweat instantly. He quickly glanced at Lox out of the corner of his eye, only to see that the other man remained calm and composed.

"Lox, he actually brought Big Mom to the territory of the giants on purpose!"

"BIGMOM is the common enemy of all giants in the world, a figure that giants are reluctant to mention... Rocks had many powerful warriors under his command, but this time he specifically brought BIGMOM along..."

"There's no mistake, Rocks is deliberately trying to provoke the giants!"

Ivan had a vague feeling that he was involved in some extremely serious incident...

Ivan began to feel uneasy.
