One Piece: Kaido's adopted son, opening the Eight Gates

"Such a grand affair doesn't seem like a dinner party."

All eyes were on Lynn.

Lynn slowly floated down from above Kaido's head.

He glanced around at the three sea emperors present, as well as the renowned pirates behind them, without showing any sign of tension.

He simply reached out his little hand, patted the dust off his clothes, and then spoke in a matter-of-fact, childish voice.

"No big deal."

"I just wanted to discuss a small matter with the three of you."

He paused, then grinned, revealing two rows of tiny white teeth.

“My ‘Godslayer Guild’ has just been established and is lacking a territory.”

"We're all acquaintances; fighting and killing each other would only damage our relationship."

"so what."

Lynn's gaze swept across the faces of Whitebeard, Shanks, and Big Mom, his pure eyes carrying an undeniable domineering air.

“Each of you three families shall give me a piece of land.”

"This isn't a big deal, is it?"

"..."

"..."

Dead silence.

The entire deserted island fell into an unprecedented silence.

The commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates, the executives of the Red-Haired Pirates, Big Mom's children...

Everyone's face was filled with an expression of disbelief, as if they had seen a ghost.

Chapter 127 Healing Whitebeard, Restoring Shanks' Severed Arm! Mission Completed, Fifth Emperor Officially Born!

Ceding territory?

They demanded that the three maritime emperors cede territory without even asking.

This brat, does he even know what he's saying?

What does he think territory is? Like cabbages at the market? Something you can just take whenever you want?

That was the land they conquered inch by inch with countless lives and blood! It was the foundation of their dignity as "emperors"!

Everyone's faces instantly turned extremely ugly, and some were even angry!

If it weren't for their fear of Lynn's extremely terrifying strength... they probably would have already attacked.

"Mama mama mama mama!"

The silence was first broken by Charlotte Linlin's shrill, piercing laughter.

She rose from Zeus, her massive body casting a huge shadow, her greedy eyes fixed on Lynn.

"Kid! You've got guts!"

"But aren't you underestimating us, the 'Four Emperors'?!"

"Do you really think that just because you're strong you can ignore us old guys?"

"Want my territory? Sure! Just marry my daughter!"

boom!

A massive, overwhelming aura of domineering power, a mixture of sweetness and savagery, erupted from her and swept across the entire area!

"Lynn, this joke is not funny at all."

The smile on Shanks' face vanished completely.

His expression was unusually solemn and serious.

He slowly stood up, placing his hand on the famous sword "Griffin" at his waist. His eyes, which always carried a hint of affability, now became as sharp as an eagle's.

“Each island represents my partners, my family.”

"Give them to you? I can't do that."

Another equally domineering and unparalleled color, as deep as the ocean, also rose up, rivaling BIGMOM's aura!

"Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh!"

Kaido's massive dragon head approached, its enormous dragon eyes blazing with a fanatical fighting spirit that seemed to thrive on chaos.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense!"

"No?"

"Then beat them until they give in!!"

Kaido doesn't care about territory at all; he only cares about having a good fight!

A battle on the scale of the Four Emperors, capable of upending the world order, is about to erupt.

"Lynn the Demon Child... do you know what you're saying?"

"Do you really think that just because you helped us, you can make such unreasonable demands without restraint?"

"The majesty of the Four Emperors will not allow... cough cough cough cough!!"

Edward Newgate, the white-bearded man hailed as "the strongest man in the world," was about to speak to quell the situation when, before he could utter two words, a heart-wrenching, violent cough suddenly erupted from his throat.

His already tall and robust body trembled violently, his face turned pale instantly, and the veins on his forehead bulged.

Then I looked at the corner of his mouth.

There was even a trickle of blood!

Obviously.

The aftereffects of the previous Marineford War have not yet been eliminated.

"Dad!!"

"Dad! Are you alright?!"

Marco and Joz's expressions changed drastically, and they immediately rushed forward to support him, one on each side.

The white-bearded sons all had anxious and worried expressions on their faces.

They knew better than anyone how much their invincible father's illness had worsened after the Marineford War, and how much it had tormented him.

Shanks and Big Mom's momentum faltered slightly due to this sudden turn of events.

They gazed at the aging hero's retreating figure with complex emotions.

at this time.

Lynn's relaxed voice rang out again.

"Don't worry."

"I said it was for discussion."

He looked at the white beard tormented by illness and a smirk appeared on his lips.

“I won’t take your territory for nothing.”

"In exchange, I can do you a favor."

He paused, his gaze fixed on the white beard.

"Your injury, your illness."

"I can cure it."

Everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates suddenly raised their heads and stared intently at Lynn with eyes that were a mixture of ecstasy and excitement!

Of course they remember!

During the Marineford War, Ace was pierced through the chest by Akainu and was on the verge of death. It was this kid who, with a magical ability that they could not understand, pulled Ace back from the brink of death!

If he says he can cure it... then he definitely can!

Whitebeard stopped coughing and slowly raised his head. His cloudy eyes, which still held supreme majesty, showed a hint of hesitation.

all of a sudden.

Whitebeard fell silent.

The pain has healed.

Even as a veteran top-tier Yonko, it would be a lie to say he wasn't tempted.

But he also remembered the promise he had made to the people in those territories... to protect them for generations to come as long as the Whitebeard Pirates existed!

Lynn didn't rush for Whitebeard's answer, but instead turned his gaze to Shanks on the other side.

"And you, redhead."

"Your arm that you risked for the 'new era'."

"Although it won't have a big impact on you, and your strength is still formidable... you must still have some regrets, right?"

"As long as you are willing to cede a portion of your territory to me, I can help you rebuild it."

Shanks' body jolted violently.

Beckman, Yasopp, Raki Lu, and others behind him also had their pupils contract and their breaths catch for a moment.

Shanks subconsciously touched his empty left sleeve, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes that went unnoticed.

He paused for a moment, then asked in an unprecedentedly serious tone.

"I believe you can recover your arm."

"But what if there are special things on the arm... like tattoos with special abilities, can they be restored at the same time?"

This question puzzled everyone.

Only his core crew members understood the true meaning of this question.

On that arm was an indelible mark, an abyssal mark that every member of the Knights of God was born with!

That's proof of his Celestial Dragon bloodline!

It is also a mark from Im that he can never get rid of!

That's why he chose to discard that arm, along with that brand, in the East China Sea in that way!

Redhead did have opportunities to heal his severed arm.

They had met many capable people on the high seas.

However, due to the existence of the Abyss Mark, Shanks has always been unwilling to restore it!

Lynn shook his head, his tone decisive.

"No."

"What grows out is a completely new arm, with nothing on it."

Hear this answer.

A look of relief appeared on Shanks's face, which was always adorned with a cheerful smile.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when he opened them again, his eyes showed determination.

"Ma ma ma ma!"

Upon seeing this, BIGMOM immediately started shouting loudly.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

"Lynn! If you're willing to become my son-in-law, I'll give you not only territory, but half of the entire Totto Land!"

She gestured to the female ministers behind her.
