Big Snake!

After carefully confirming that there was no one around, he cautiously took out a bug-proof Den Den Mushi.

"Phew, no need to be scared for now."

Tucker wiped the non-existent sweat off his forehead with his hand.

Then he took out the Den Den Mushi, preparing to dial a long-forgotten number.

"Ring, ring, ring, ring..."

Suddenly, the Den Den Mushi in his hand vibrated.

The faint movement startled Tucker, making him shiver.

He couldn't blame himself for being too timid.

Being an undercover agent was too dangerous, especially since he was currently among a group of pirates. If his undercover identity was discovered, the consequences would be dire.

"Scared the hell out of me!"

Tucker almost wanted to smash the ringing Den Den Mushi on the ground.

But he chose reason over impulse.

Click.

He answered the Den Den Mushi.

"Special tasks require special equipment!"

"No job is too difficult for brave little doggies!"

With the passphrase concluded, a voice suddenly came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.

"Hey, is this Tucker?"

The Den Den Mushi turned into a figure resembling Sengoku's voice came through.

"Boss? You know, contacting me like this is really risky. If it weren't for the chaos in Flower Capital right now, I would be in big trouble if my undercover identity was exposed!"

Tucker, in a bad mood, spoke in a harsh tone.

After all, undercover agents usually operated with single-line contacts, and Sengoku suddenly reaching out to him was out of the ordinary.

Fortunately, with Flower Capital in turmoil, nobody noticed him, or else if the Den Den Mushi rang during a meeting of the Beast Pirates, it would be a big mess.

There was a moment of silence on Sengoku's end, acknowledging his mistake.

A second or two later, his voice came through.

"Tucker, according to our intelligence, Charlotte Linlin and Kaido have gone to Wano together. We need to know what they're planning!"

It could be said that at the level of Kaido and Charlotte Linlin, their every move would affect the Marines' nerves.

"They ambushed and killed the former Wano general heir, the former Whitebeard Pirates' second division commander, and the Roger Pirates' crew member, Kozuki Oden. After that, they even had a direct conflict with Nicholas, who was stationed in Hakumai. Currently, Kaido and Charlotte Linlin are fighting each other."

Listening to Sengoku's words, Tucker discreetly reported through the Den Den Mushi.

Immediately, he saw the attention of the Beast Pirates' members was focused entirely on Charlotte Linlin and Kaido. Only then did he relax.

"What's going on?"

Sengoku's voice became more and more puzzled, and he asked quickly.

Tucker subconsciously sniffed and realized he didn't need to play a role now, so he cursed quietly before explaining in a low voice, "Kaido and Charlotte Linlin initially ambushed Kozuki Oden. Most of Kozuki Oden's forces were wiped out, except for a few loyal retainers who escaped. According to my investigation, the people in Wano, under Orochi's rule, seem to have secretly traded with the World Government."

"What?!"

Sengoku's face suddenly changed color, and the news of the World Government colluding with pirates would undoubtedly be a massive blow to the World Government if it were exposed.

Then, he heard the intense sound of battle from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.

He thought the Beast Pirates were engaged in a fierce battle with Nicholas' pirate crew.

"Is the battle still going on over there?"

Sengoku's tone was full of apprehension as he listened.

Tucker glanced at the intense battlefield in the distance, shaking his head, "Kaido is currently fighting with Charlotte Linlin... against each other. As for Nicholas, he seems to be watching the show..."

It was the most appropriate description he could think of for the current situation in Flower Capital.

After all, two monsters were fighting each other, ostensibly allies, while their original enemy was leisurely watching from the sidelines.

"Hmm? Kaido and Charlotte Linlin are fighting each other?"

Sengoku became more and more puzzled as he listened. The two allies were supposed to be working together, right?

How could they be fighting each other? And it sounded like they were fighting for real.

"Well, it's hard to say..."

Tucker recalled the scene just now and recounted in detail what had happened.

But there was dead silence on the other end of the Den Den Mushi.

"Hey, hey? Boss? Are you listening?"

Seeing that there was no response for a long time, he couldn't help but ask.

"I'm listening, Tucker. Take care of yourself. You're our eyes and ears in Wano. I know all about your contributions, and when your mission is complete, I'll personally welcome you!"

Hearing Sengoku's words, Tucker didn't feel happy at all.

"Boss, please don't do this. I heard some time ago that Kaido and the others seem to be planning some big changes in the pirate crew, like promoting some to real combatants. I've already been nominated as a real combatant. I don't even know if I'm still a Marine or a pirate! This is the last time, Boss. Don't play with me anymore."

.....

As the Den Den Mushi was hung up, on the other end of the Den Den Mushi, at Marineford

Sengoku sat on a chair, and the Den Den Mushi was placed on the table.

On the table, there was a stack of documents, and the most prominent one was a blonde-haired, shy-smiling Marine.

.....

Outside Flower Capital, Orochi that escaped danger with the ability of the Mythical Zoan-type Yamata no Orochi, brought the surviving retainers to the location indicated by the secret code left by Undercover Kanjuro, and arrived in front of Momonosuke.

Seeing Orochi leading a large group of people, the Red Scabbards, who were completely unprepared, panicked.

They weren't afraid of dying themselves, but they were afraid of the bloodline of Lord Oden being cut off here.

Facing the threatening side of Orochi, the less mentally stable Momonosuke bit his teeth, and his right hand quietly hid under his kimono, looking at the huge snake heads twisting in the air with all the despair.

Plop!

Momonosuke sat on the ground, not even noticing that he had wet himself, staring blankly at the monster with seven heads.

The indescribable despair overwhelmed his mind, almost causing him to collapse.

Unfortunately, his throat seemed to be blocked, and he couldn't say anything, only making a weak, "ugh…ugh..." sound.

"Heh heh heh...!!!"

The cold laughter of Orochi echoed in the woods.

"Are you surprised?"

Orochi's face and body swelled up, turning into the form of the Yamata no Orochi in an instant, but now there were only seven snake heads left.

"Heh heh heh, isn't it a pleasant surprise?"

"Why... aren't you saying anything?" Orochi, with control over the situation, laughed wildly.

"Let me tell you anyway, I'll slowly torture you all and let you die in despair in the end. I'll repay the hatred of the Kozuki family to the Kurozumi family in full!"

As if excited by his emotions, Orochi's face suddenly became grotesque, and his body turned into the form of the Yamata no Orochi.

But.

With only seven snake heads left in the form of the Yamata no Orochi.

"Heh heh heh, missing one head. It's not bad to make up with the son of that guy Oden. Heh heh heh!!!"

The seven ferocious snake heads in the air stared dead at Momonosuke and the trembling Kozuki retainers.

Momonsuke barely maintained his composure, his right hand quietly hidden in his kimono, watching the huge snake heads twisting in the air.
