At this moment, news arrived that Kaido had come to the first half of the Grand Line from the New World.

The entire front half of the Grand Line gasped in disbelief.

"Kaido?!"

"What is he doing in the first half of the Grand Line?!"

"Is another Four Emperor going to take this opportunity to attack Naval Headquarters?!"

"My God, is the first half of the Grand Line going to be destroyed?!"

Countless people were in disbelief and restless.

After all, the reputation of the Four Emperors was known worldwide – even children would cry upon hearing their names.

One can imagine the impact of Kaido's sudden arrival during this special period – it was equivalent to dropping a nuclear bomb in the first half of the Grand Line!

Simultaneously, as the world speculated about Kaido's purpose in the first half of the Grand Line, at New World's Dressrosa Kingdom, a conversation unfolded.

"Do... Doflamingo... According to our family's information, Kaido has arrived at the Grand Line. That monster with terrifying strength suddenly inquired about the guy who killed the Celestial Dragons. Could it be..."

Torrebol's pupils flickered with shock as he addressed Doflamingo.

The world was guessing Kaido's purpose, but their Donquixote family had a vague idea.

"Kaido... Whitebeard, and that monster whose strength seems as unfathomable as the abyss, plus the dispatched Marine Admiral..."

Doflamingo started naming figures.

Looking toward the first half of the Grand Line, Doflamingo's face showed the rare palpitations of his life.

"At this rate... the World Government may also have to, no, it is already struggling to bear it."

"After all, isn't this the world's most unprecedented dogfight since the days of the Rocks? One can't..."

Doflamingo murmured to himself.

"I fear the world will be destroyed because of this."

"The people from the World Government want...?!"

Torrebol's heart trembled upon hearing the mention of the World Government.

The senior executives of the Donquixote family knew Doflamingo's true identity.

Thus, there was hardly any pirate force in the world more aware of the terror of the World Government than their family.

Even the Marine Headquarters had to face the oncoming attack of the Whitebeard Pirates.

The World Government didn't show any signs of worry.

It was conceivable that the entity at the pinnacle of power, having stood in the world for eight hundred years, had given all the countries in the world confidence in its absolute power behemoth.

If you speak of the World Government, coming from someone else's mouth, you might get in trouble.

Torrebol naturally was skeptical.

But coming from Doflamingo's mouth...

Torrebol's heart reacted violently.

Once the World Government also got involved...

That would be a terrifying power unimaginable to ordinary people. No matter how powerful a kingdom was in this world, it could be extinguished overnight!

At the Sabaody Archipelago's bottom islands...

"Kaido... is that guy here?"

An old man with silver hair suddenly looked up, pondering what was to come.

The black shadow covered the sky over the Sabaody Archipelago.

As the sky suddenly turned black, countless people subconsciously raised their heads.

The next second, their pupils widened in shock, a cold air rushing from the soles of their feet to their foreheads. The items in their hands dropped to the ground unconsciously.

For within reach...

An extremely huge dragon descended from the Red Line on a cloud of flames, its terrifying aura overwhelming the islands and rendering the inhabitants desperate.

But fortunately, the commotion did not last long.

Kaido paid no mind to these "ants."

His purpose was singular; he was interested in only one man.

As for the Marines' reaction or whether the first half of the Grand Line would descend into chaos, Kaido couldn't care less. In his eyes, even the so-called "Supernova" pirates of the first half of the Grand Line, with bounties of hundreds of millions of Baileys, were nothing more than brats playing house.

What he sought was a joyous battle!

In this monotonous world, waging war or seeking suicide was his sole pleasure at the moment!

Now, Kaido could only hope that the man's strength wouldn't disappoint him!

Fully revealing the dragon body enabled by the green dragon fruit, Kaido suddenly accelerated, moving forward in the first half of the Grand Line.

Elsewhere, the entire world could not fathom that a single person would cause such an unprecedented storm.

That person was Bai Ye.

Under the blue sky, on a deserted island, this region had been completely engulfed by the flames released by Ryūjin Jakka, to the extent that the sea within a hundred-kilometer radius had been evaporated by the high temperature, revealing a dry seabed riddled with cracks and fissures.

With a swing of his knife, Bai Ye cast aside the flames from Ryūjin Jakka's blade—such a terrifying sight, once paired with his movements, significantly influenced the opinions of Akainu and Kizaru about this battle.

It was predicted to last days and nights, but it had come to an abrupt end.

The Marines had prepared for a battle outcome that would surely wipe out Bai Ye, but the 'Buster Call,' with more than thirty warships assembled, was eradicated.

The 'CP0' troops, known as the 'strongest shield of the Celestial Dragons,' who participated in the operation, were all wiped out.

The fates of two Marine Admirals remained unknown to the outside world.

Each of these was astounding enough to send shivers down one's spine.

And now, they were all associated with a single individual!

So, the next day, when people discovered that the entire sea area in the first half of the Grand Line had been evaporated, the results of this 'monster vs. Marine monster of the highest combat power' battle shook the entire world like a catastrophic earthquake!
