Chapter 239

~5 min read 852 words

Inside the communication room.

"In Mother's eyes, are we children all expendable..."

Hearing that his mother didn't even hesitate for a second, truly willing to hand Smoothie over to Lin Yu in exchange for Lola and the flying ship technology.

Katakuri unconsciously clenched his fists, silent anger brewing constantly within his heart.

Even if his mother had hesitated for a moment, Katakuri wouldn't feel as bad as he does now.

After such silence for a while, Katakuri finally walked out of the communication room and onto the deck.

"What did Mother say?"

As soon as Katakuri came out, he was immediately surrounded by Daifuku, Oven, and others.

Even Smoothie stood at her room's doorway, frowning and looking at him.

Concerning her own lifelong matter, even Smoothie, a Sweet Commander, couldn't help but feel nervous in her heart.

And beside Smoothie were her two twin sisters, Xia Luote Strenger and Xia Luote Snack.

Feeling Smoothie's gaze, Katakuri thought for a moment before speaking:

"Mother plans to lure Lin Yu to the Whole Cake Island under the guise of an engagement, to seize Lola and the flying ship technology he captured."

After saying that, Katakuri didn't continue speaking and walked towards his room.

"This method is good!" Daifuku, Oven, and others, upon hearing this, all nodded in agreement.

As pirates, going back on one's word is simply the most normal thing.

Smoothie glanced at Katakuri as he brushed past her and whispered: "Brother, did Mother really just say that?"

The veins on Katakuri's forehead twitched; he said nothing.

"I understand."

Smoothie fell silent for a moment, turned around, and returned to her room.

The answer was already self-evident.

Wano Country, Onigashima.

The top ace of the Beasts Pirates, Scorching Disaster King, approached Kaido, who was currently hungover, and said:

"Boss, Queen is on the phone."

"He says the Sweet Commanders Katakuri and Smoothie of the Big Mom Pirates are at Sabaody Archipelago, and Queen is outnumbered and needs support."

"Hic!!! Who called?" Kaido, reeking of alcohol, lifted his head and looked at King with a confused expression.

Having drunk too much last night, Kaido's head was foggy, and for a moment he couldn't quite grasp what King was saying.

Then, Kaido reached around, fumbling for a long time before grabbing his spiked club, and then aimed it at his own head.

Bang!

"Gurgle gurgle!!!"

After striking himself hard with the club, Kaido shook his head violently like a horse, finally feeling much more awake.

"King, what did you just say?"

Scorching Disaster King said expressionlessly: "The Big Mom Pirates sent two Sweet Commanders, Katakuri and Smoothie, to Sabaody Archipelago. Queen can't beat them and needs support."

"Gugu gu~"

Kaido took another few swigs of alcohol and said, shaking his head:

"That girl, Big Mom, is actually eyeing that kid Lin Yu too? Does she want to take him as a husband?"

"Give me Queen's phone; I want to ask about the situation personally."

Upon hearing this, King took a Den Den Mushi from his chest and handed it to Kaido.

"Hello, Queen."

"Boss, I need support now; best send King over."

"What's the specific situation? Has that kid Lin Yu arrived at Sabaody Archipelago?"

"Boss, don't worry. I used a trick to lure the Navy Admirals to Sabaody Archipelago and even bribed the newspaper to publish news. That bastard Lin Yu shouldn't come to Sabaody Archipelago for a short while."

"What about the situation over at Big Mom's end?"

"Katakuri and Smoothie came, along with big officers and fighters like Oven and Daifuku. I fought them; the low-level members are all dead. Urgent support needed."

"Be sure to keep a close watch on Lin Yu's whereabouts at Sabaody Archipelago; I will send people to support you."

"Yes, Boss."

Click!

Seeing Kaido hang up the phone, King spoke up: "Boss, do you need me to go?"

Kaido glanced at King and said indifferently: "No rush; I have my own arrangements."

After speaking, Kaido picked up the wine pot and continued to drink.

"Gugu gu~~"

On the other side.

On the Beasts Pirates ship where Queen was located.

"Now, with King's support, let's see how long Katakuri and the others can act arrogant."

Queen put away the Den Den Mushi and rubbed his hands together excitedly.

The grudge of having his body blown apart twice by Katakuri and the others, Queen could remember for a lifetime.

Then, he looked at Black Maria beside him and asked:

"Do we still have no news from Praline and Page One?"

Queen hadn't expected yesterday to involve three Admirals moving out simultaneously, so after receiving news from the island informant, he simply fled immediately, not waiting for Praline and Page One at all.

The giant Black Maria shook her head, "No."

"Have the Navy Admirals on Sabaody Archipelago withdrawn yet?"

"According to our informants, Aokiji is still on Sabaody Archipelago."

"What about the whereabouts of Katakuri and the others?"

"That remains unclear."

Hearing Black Maria's words, Queen frowned.

"Order the informants on the island to closely monitor Katakuri and the others' movements; report immediately upon any sign of them."

"Understood."
