SWNOVELXO Chapter 525: Chapter 39. Relationship
[V3] - Chapter 39. Relationship
---
The wind howls!
The waves surge!
Kaido stared silently at the four giants surrounding him. These four guys were far larger than the so-called giants of the sea!
Standing steadily upon the sea surface, it was as though their heads were about to pierce the sky!
Even though he was floating upon the dark clouds, stepping on rainbow-colored clouds beneath his feet, he could still clearly see the faces of these strange giants!
Extremely clearly.
Their aura was also tremendously terrifying!
Where on earth had these fearsome enemies come from?
Why had he never heard of them anywhere on the seas?!
Moreover…
Why had these guys declared war on the Beasts Pirates?
Kaido grasped the rainbow cloud, his old face full of vigilance, staring at the four giants surrounding him, speaking in a gloomy tone, "Tell me! When did the Beasts Pirates provoke you?"
His tone was no longer as arrogant as it had been at the beginning.
Although he was constantly courting death and seeking ways to kill himself… he had never truly wanted to die!
He still had dreams!
The dreams of conquering the sea!
The dreams of igniting a [world's greatest war!]
To plunge this utterly rotten world into madness and revelry!
As a man, while his dreams remained unfulfilled, how could he possibly die so easily?
As his words fell—
Yuto stepped forward expressionlessly. "A few days ago, your Beasts Pirates went to Fish-Man Island!"
"???"
What did this mean?
Kaido looked at him in astonishment.
Went to Fish-Man Island…
King had indeed mentioned that Jack went to Fish-Man Island to prepare a gift for him. Could it be because of that?
Could it be that Jack provoked these guys on Fish-Man Island?
However.
Wasn't Fish-Man Island under the protection of the Whitebeard Pirates?
Why had he never seen these people before?
As an Emperor of the Sea, he believed that if Jack had truly provoked the Whitebeard Pirates, knowing Whitebeard's personality, Whitebeard would definitely have brought his "sons" directly to demand an explanation. How could he possibly allow these strange guys to come instead, while never showing up himself?
Thinking of this, Kaido's tone instantly grew grave. "What is your relationship with Whitebeard?"
"No relationship!"
"…Then what exactly do you mean?"
"A while back… your subordinate Jack bullied three girls!"
"???"
"I'm their father!"
As soon as Yuto's words fell—
"I'm their grandfather!" The Chief Elder stepped forward with a fierce expression.
Next.
Fugaku also stepped out, expressionless, and said, "I'm their uncle!"
Then.
Nagato floated down and said blandly, "Their other uncle!"
As the words fell—
Everyone stared expressionlessly at Obito. Even Kaido couldn't help turning his head to look at Obito standing beside him.
At this moment.
Obito: …
Driving the gigantic blue Susanoo, his eyelid twitched slightly, seemingly at a loss for words.
He really was stupid.
Obviously, he didn't even need to come. Nothing would have happened anyway. Why had he come to stick his nose into this mess?
"…"
Who on earth was this girl?
How could she have such terrifying relatives?!
Kaido's heart thumped, the corner of his mouth twitching, yet he still twisted his massive body, looking at Obito who stood silently, and said, "And you? Report your name!" That rough voice boomed toward Obito. "And what's your relationship with them? You're all strong men! You deserve to have your names known by me!"
However.
Before the words had finished—
"Hmph!" Under everyone's watchful gaze, Obito let out a cold snort, then shouted loudly, "Mere pirates, what qualifications do you have to know my name?!"
Then.
Without another word, he directly charged forward. The giant shuriken in Susanoo's massive hand was hurled straight toward Kaido.
"Die!"
"?!"
Why had this guy suddenly gotten so angry?!
Kaido's expression instantly changed.
Although among pirates it was common to fight mid-conversation, once they acknowledged each other, it was perfectly normal to exchange names, wasn't it?
This was also the straightforward boldness of men on the seas!
This guy.
He was a bit unreasonable about pirate etiquette!
Still, Kaido twisted his dragon body quickly, dodging the attack!
Then he once again laughed wildly, his aura surging as he glared, eyes wide. "I didn't expect Jack to provoke such terrifying enemies! Even the father, uncle, grandfather, and uncles have come! Hahahaha! This is truly interesting! It looks like Jack has already died at your hands. Since you dared to kill my right-hand man, then let's declare war! I'll show you that my Beasts Pirates aren't so easy to bully! I am the King of the Beasts…"
However.
Before he could finish his words—
"You're thinking too much! The reason I'm telling you this is simply to make you understand… whoever dares to bully my daughters, I'll kill him!" Yuto interrupted him directly, then stretched out his hand. "Chibaku Tensei!"
"?!" Kaido's expression changed instantly, staring at the earth and rocks flying up from the ground, winding themselves around his body. He suddenly felt a terrifying sensation rising in his heart. "What… is this?"
As his words fell—
The four of them ignored him entirely and charged straight up.
Meanwhile, below…
The two uncles (grandfathers)… Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Hiashi, glanced at each other, their faces also somewhat unsightly as they looked toward the sky.
Could they please first let them unleash a round of Eight Trigrams 128 Palms!
…
At the same time.
On Onigashima… everyone was staring in shock at their Governor who had transformed into a massive stone sphere.
Especially that towering giant wave that had not yet subsided!
It made them begin to understand deep within…
This group of people…
Were also monsters just like the King of the Beasts, Kaido!
Their Governor… seemed to have fallen into a disadvantage… oh no, to be precise, he had already fallen into a disadvantage and seemed to be getting kicked around like a giant ball!
Damn it!
Where on earth had these monsters come from?!
And now… should they maybe hurry and flee by ship first?
That giant wave was practically a natural disaster-level calamity!
All of them swallowed nervously as they stared at the towering giant wave, murmuring to themselves, "Why is it still rising?"
It was already enough to destroy this entire island, so why… the hell was it still rising?!
"Run! Get out of here quickly! The captain can't protect us anymore!"
As those words fell—
The pirates on the island also began plunging into chaos, rushing outside one after another, only halfway out… they suddenly stared in surprise at the strange things plastered all around them, their faces instantly stunned. "What the heck is this?"
A small piece of paper, with strange symbols drawn on it.
"Could it be decorations for some upcoming banquet?"
"Why do you care so much? Just hurry up and run!"
"That's right! If we don't run now, we won't be able to escape!"
Everyone began running frantically toward the coastline, preparing to leave by ship, but once they arrived there, they all stared wide-eyed at the shore.
Where were the ships?
Why had all the ships disappeared?!
What were they supposed to do now?
…
"All the ships are destroyed?"
"Destroyed! Destroyed! Even all the wooden planks on the island that could be used as ships are destroyed too!"
"Excellent!" Upon hearing the words of the White Zetsus, Konan nodded in satisfaction and said viciously, "They actually dared to bully Yumi and the others. Don't they know those girls are under my protection? Watch me blow up this entire island! Have all the explosive tags been plastered everywhere?"
"They have!" The little White Zetsu quickly nodded. "Even on that tower, every corner is completely plastered!"
"Can it blow up the whole island?"
"It can! Absolutely can!" The little White Zetsu nodded quickly, remembering the mountain of explosive tags from just now, feeling nervous inside.
No wonder they were relatives of Boss Yumi—they were seriously rich!
"It can definitely blow everything on top into nothingness!"
Besides.
That giant wave… honestly, even without the explosive tags, that giant wave alone could easily destroy this place!
However.
"Only blow up the stuff on the surface?" Konan immediately looked dissatisfied at the White Zetsu, then pulled out another huge pile of explosive tags from inside her robes and dumped them onto the ground. "Keep plastering them for me! Don't stop until this whole place is blown and sunk! If it's not enough, tell me!"
"…"
The little White Zetsu swallowed nervously, staring at this crazy woman.
So terrifying!
He hesitated for a moment. "Actually… Konan-sama, those ones earlier were already enough. Any more than that… would be a bit wasteful."
So much money…
Wouldn't it be better spent buying 648 in a game?
"What do you mean 'enough or not enough'! I said it's not enough, so it's not enough! Keep plastering them for me, plaster them all over the ground!" Konan glared in displeasure at the White Zetsu. "And you guys still expect Yumi to be boss? Your vision is way too small! Way too small! Hurry up! Keep plastering them for me!"
As those words fell—
"…"
All the little White Zetsus instantly lowered their heads in shame, then… immediately snapped to attention, saluting with serious expressions as they stared at Konan. "We guarantee to complete the mission!"
"That's right! That's right! Daring to bully Boss Yumi! They all deserve to spiral ascend into heaven!"
"After they die, we'll even have Orochimaru Impure World Reincarnate them back, make them work 007 schedules, and ruthlessly squeeze them dry!"
"Kill them all!"
After speaking, their expressions twisted into fierce looks, and they immediately grabbed the explosive tags again, running in all directions across Onigashima, preparing to plaster them all over one more time.
And seeing such [obedient and well-behaved] little White Zetsus, Konan nodded in satisfaction.
Yumi and the others…
They had gathered quite a good group of subordinates～!
After a while.
As if remembering something, she suddenly shouted loudly, "By the way! Brother Yuto said to hurry up and don't drag it out too long! Otherwise, if the other forces outside find out, who knows what kind of trouble they'll stir up!"
