Chapter 33: The Idea of Building the Dark Portal in the Pirate World

The idea of making him owe me a favor, heh! Totally unreliable.

Actually carrying it out is still very difficult, and there are too many variables; it's completely a gamble on whether others will help me, just a bet on Whitebeard's character.

Would that guy Whitebeard really owe me a favor just because I helped him and aided his body's recovery to youth? If I ever get into trouble later and go to him in the Azeroth world, will he really come? Whitebeard went to save Ace only because Ace's identity was Roger's son.

In Whitebeard's mind, sacrificing his other sons' lives to save Ace, Ace's life is far more valuable than his other sons'.

Luode doesn't intend to gamble on character; he's betting on luck.

"Yamato! You suddenly said you'd rope in Whitebeard, make Whitebeard owe a favor—do you have some idea? You must have seen the newspaper lately." Luode stroked his chin, gave Yamato a teasing look, and spoke.

Since following me, Yamato is no longer restricted in freedom; even the newsbirds that come around selling papers can now pass the latest news to him.

So this lass definitely saw the newspaper about Ace's arrest.

Speaking of which, Yamato and Ace of the Whitebeard Pirates have a very good relationship; to a certain extent, they could even be called an official couple.

But now Yamato is my girl.

"I'm good friends with Ace, the Second Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates; I want to go save him—he was captured by the Marines." Yamato spoke bluntly.

"Ha! Has anything like this happened lately? If that's the case, given Whitebeard's old-timer personality..."

"... he will definitely go save his son, and then he'll surely have a fierce clash with the Marines." Beast Kaido stroked his chin and spoke.

"So! What do you want to do?" Luode asked.

"Hahaha! This is a great opportunity—naturally we'll seize Whitebeard's territory." Kaido laughed hysterically.

He really wanted to fight Whitebeard at his peak and defeat him, but after Whitebeard took Fel Blood, the other side crushed him, which isn't what he wanted.

So if Whitebeard goes to attack Marine Headquarters, then I can go seize his territory.

"You're going to seize Whitebeard's territory? Do you think the other two Emperors will just sit by? The Four Emperors should be mutually checking each other—Charlotte Linlin and Red-Haired Shanks might come after you!" Luode said.

"Tch, with my current strength, if I wanted, I could blast through those two. Before we were evenly matched, but now I'm absolutely the strongest." Kaido said.

He has now fully mastered Fel Power, atop Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki.

He can also augment Fel Power, making Kaido's strength even greater.

"Veto! We can't expose your combat power now, can't let people know how much Fel Power boosts you as an Emperor." Luode said.

It's not yet time to reveal Kaido's formidable combat power, letting the World Government know that this New World Emperor's strength has more than doubled.

After seizing Whitebeard's territory and wiping out the other two Emperors,

then the Marines will surely launch a full-scale encirclement against Kaido; now is not the time for an all-out war with the Marines.

"Tch! Brat." Kaido snorted in dissatisfaction.

With your current strength, what are you scared of, kid? If it's the Summit War, there's still about a month before it starts, after all Ace was just handed over to the Marines by Blackbeard.

And I still have a few days to spare before I must return to Azeroth.

After all, the two-month deadline with the Burning Legion is coming up soon, and obtaining the new Blood of the Abyssal Lord, strengthening the remaining Beast Pirates executives, having Kaido learn the Way of the Warrior—all require a return trip. Even more advanced Fel Magic would need to be granted by the Burning Legion.

"Kaido! I've decided—get ready; tomorrow morning we'll return together to my world.

When the Summit War begins, we'll come back, then seize Whitebeard's corpse and those of some other strong individuals.

"During this stay in my world, I want you to learn some warrior skills." Luode said.

Conducting a second transaction with the Burning Legion, this time Luode will face Kil'jaeden directly.

If possible, Luode very much wants to obtain from Kil'jaeden the method of constructing the Dark Portal.

Through my own Space Transmission Ability, I'll link the two worlds for positioning, using the Space Gem's energy as power, establishing a permanent gateway for continual travel between the Pirate World and Azeroth.

Then I'll completely dominate the Pirate World, join the Burning Legion, and I'll definitely need to bring my own entourage.

In the entire Pirate World, all pirates will in the future be my subordinates' entourage.

"Got it! I hope the other world has an opponent that gets me excited." Having said that, Kaido left without looking back.

Yamato, meanwhile, mistakenly returned together with Luode to his resting place.

"Yamato, come over and face the wall." Luode suddenly said.

"You! You, what are you going to do?" Yamato asked.

"Cut the chatter—stand still." Luode stepped behind Yamato.

Yamato furrowed her brows, but still followed Luode's instruction to face the wall, then she felt a large hand grab her. "You! You, you this bastard!" Yamato instantly realized what this damned bastard was doing: "You also overheard today's conversation between me and your old man, so now come fulfill your wifely duty!" Luode bent Yamato's body and spoke.

Still want to save Ace? Save your sister, huh! I'll take care of you first, then talk—so you don't go thinking about other men.

"You! Ugh! Bastard!!"

"Shut up! Come on, stand still." Luode grabbed Yamato from behind and roared.

"Hn! Luo, Luode, you, you this scoundrel." Yamato placed one hand on the wall to support her trembling body, covered her mouth with the other, and spoke.

"Remember you're my woman—don't think about other men." Luode said, his body trembling slightly.

From anger, Yamato's face began to show faint signs of beastification, a pair of snow-white beast ears sprouting from her head.

Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit, Great Mouth True God Form, half-beast transformation.

Luode, meanwhile, showed no weakness, displaying his Devil Fruit ability—Dragon Half-Beast Form—and directly suppressed Yamato's resistance.

The two, in Mythical Zoan Half-Beast Human Form, launched into a fierce melee battle.

They fought until the sky darkened and the earth grew dim.
