Chapter 38

The Golden Lion's shocked mouth suddenly curled into a cruel and greedy arc.

"Monster Cells and Senzu Beans are simply tailor-made for me!"

Of course, in order to escape from Impel Down, Shiki cut off his own two legs.

Although he used swords as prosthetics, they were not as convenient as his original legs.

Senzu Beans could allow Shiki's legs to grow back.

And Monster Cells could greatly increase the strength of his subordinates, increasing his bargaining chip for revenge against the World Government!

These two major benefits were enough to arouse the Golden Lion's endless greed!

Greed blinded the Golden Lion's eyes.

He found his subordinates without saying a word and shouted excitedly:

"Little ones, get your weapons and ammunition ready, we are going to attack Wano Country!"

The Golden Lion's subordinates were confused: "Huh?"

Is the captain's brain broken? Wano Country is the territory of Emperor Kaido.

Looking at the ship's wheel stuck in the Golden Lion's head, the subordinates were silent.

Ever since he was unfortunately struck by a ship's wheel in the Battle of Edd War with Roger, their captain's brain has indeed not been very good.

He often does some bizarre things.

Indigo, the scientist who mainly researches IQ, understood the Golden Lion's meaning and said cautiously:

"Captain, are you thinking of going to Wano Country to grab Monster Cells and Senzu Beans?"

The Golden Lion grinned cruelly: "That's for sure!"

As expected, Indigo sighed in his heart.

In fact, he had read the newspaper long ago, but deliberately hid it from the Golden Lion, just for fear that the captain would do something irrational.

Indigo advised:

"Captain, Beast Kaido is now an Emperor, known as the strongest creature on land, sea, and air; he is not the intern on your ship back then, we must be cautious."

The Golden Lion sneered disdainfully upon hearing this:

"What Emperor, what strongest creature, I beat him until he couldn't find his teeth back then!"

When the Rocks Pirates still existed.

The boss was naturally Rocks, followed by him and Whitebeard, then Big Mom, Wang Zhi, and others, and finally Kaido when he was young.

Therefore, the Golden Lion looked down on Kaido a lot.

He didn't know that today's Kaido not only ate the Mythical Zoan Azure Dragon Fruit but also mastered Conqueror's Haki Infusion, and was no longer what he used to be.

Indigo had learned about Kaido's terror through the newspaper.

It's really hard to say who would win and who would lose in a duel between his captain and Beast Kaido.

More importantly, Beast Kaido has forces far exceeding theirs.

From this point of view, the Flying Pirates' chance of losing was clearly greater.

But Indigo also knew that the captain's decisions could not be changed.

He thought for a moment and changed his way of speaking:

"Captain, my research on IQ is about to succeed. Why not wait a few more days, wait until all the animals on the island become ferocious, and then go to attack Wano Country, so that Beast Kaido can know your terror!"

The Golden Lion felt that what Indigo said made sense, so he agreed.

Indigo breathed a sigh of relief in his heart; let's delay it for one day at a time.

Onigashima.

Luo Xing had been in the Time Gravity Room for twelve days, equivalent to one year in the outside world.

When he came out of seclusion,

Page One, who greeted him, only felt a magnificent aura that was domineering to the extreme rushing toward him.

Page One felt a sense of suffocation instantly, and vaguely, he seemed to see Boss Kaido walking toward him.

It took Page One a long time to stabilize his mood, and the look he gave Luo Xing was filled with awe that hadn't been there before.

"Son-in-law, have you successfully practiced Conqueror's Haki Infusion?"

Luo Xing smiled indifferently: "I have achieved some success."

Page One gasped.

Although Luo Xing said it lightly, he understood that the Son-in-law who had learned Conqueror's Haki Infusion was enough to crush him even without eating a Devil Fruit or Monster Cells.

Even King, the strongest among the All-Stars and Tobi Roppo, might not be the opponent of Son-in-law Luo Xing.

"How about you, Page, how has your practice been lately?" Luo Xing asked casually.

A wry smile appeared on Page One's face.

"Compared to you, Son-in-law, it's like an elephant compared to an ant. But there has been some progress; I feel I am one step closer to evolving into a Mythical Zoan."

Luo Xing patted Page One on the shoulder: "Keep it up, Page."

Speaking of which, he once tricked Page One, saying he would help him evolve into a Mythical Zoan, but he hadn't done it yet.

Thinking about it, he still felt a little guilty.

Luo Xing walked toward his father-in-law Kaido's palace.

Page One leaned over and whispered:

"Son-in-law, Boss Kaido's mood has been very bad lately."

"What happened?"

"It's all because of that idiot Jack; when he went outside to take revenge on the Marines, he accidentally leaked the intelligence about the Senzu Beans, and now the whole sea knows about it."

Luo Xing laughed in his heart.

As expected of the "King of Ships," he caused trouble again.

"And then?"

"Then those people outside went crazy, and everyone wants Senzu Beans!"

Page One counted on his fingers and said:

"There's Empress Boa Hancock, Emperor Red-Haired Shanks, Big Mom Charlotte Charlotte Charlotte Charlotte Linlin, the Giants of Elbaf... and a whole bunch of others! Hey, including the hypocritical World Government, they also quietly sent CP0 over."

Luo Xing paused.

A name caught his attention.

Empress Boa Hancock, that world's number one beauty, who is as beautiful as his wife Yamato.

Luo Xing's eyes flickered, and he quickly figured out why the Empress wanted Senzu Beans; it must be to remove the Hoof of the Celestial Dragon on her back.

Page One's voice continued:

"By the way, there's also Joker! That damn guy actually dared to threaten Boss Kaido with Smile fruits!"

Joker, that is Donquixote Doflamingo, the intermediary of the underworld, who has a close relationship with Kaido.

He has a factory for making artificial Devil Fruits, Smile, and also has a weapon exchange in the underground of his base, Dressrosa.

By selling Smile fruits to Kaido and providing weapons for wars all over the world, Doflamingo has made a fortune.

However,

Doflamingo should be extremely afraid of his father-in-law Kaido; how could he have the guts to threaten him?

Page One answered Luo Xing's confusion.

"That bastard Joker, holding onto a Monster Cell he ate, got a bit carried away because his strength increased greatly."

"He newly manufactured one hundred Smile fruits and colluded with a group of so-called kings of the underworld, wanting to exchange them for Senzu Beans from Boss Kaido."

So that's how it is, Luo Xing understood.

This actually doesn't count as a threat; at most, it's a transaction with a bit of coercion.

Luo Xing's deep eyes showed a thoughtful look.

Greed makes people crazy, especially those villains in the underworld who even dared to grab Big Mom's Monster Cells back then.

Although Wano Country is in a dangerous location and guarded by his father-in-law Kaido, no one can attack it.

But if this continues, their Beast Pirates will undoubtedly become the target of everyone on the sea, which is very unfavorable for future development and expansion.

Blocking is worse than draining.

Luo Xing suddenly smiled; he already had a plan.
