[With Jinbei now part of the crew, they managed to fend off all pursuers sent by Kaido and Orochi.]
[The group began discussing strategies to infiltrate Onigashima and overthrow Kaido's rule.]
[Currently, a grand banquet is underway on Onigashima, and the plan is to wait until Kaido is thoroughly intoxicated before making their move!]
[Before that, they must deal with or weaken Kaido's forces to some extent.]
[Only by joining forces in the final battle can they hope to defeat him completely!]
[Thus, Zoro, Luffy, Kidd, and a band of samurai ventured into Onigashima with the assistance of Kinemon and others.]
[Silently lurking everywhere!]
[Unlike Luffy's impulsive nature, many of the samurai, like Kinemon, have long been planning to rebel against Kaido and thus remain composed, patiently awaiting their chance.]
[But while others can maintain their composure, Luffy cannot.]
[With his bold personality, he immediately engaged in combat with several of Kaido's men upon arrival on Onigashima!]
[Fortunately, Onigashima is vast, and Luffy's skirmish went unnoticed by Kaido.]
[Nevertheless, the disturbance caused considerable embarrassment and frustration among the group.]
[However, it's not just Luffy causing trouble; Zoro's impatience adds to the challenge.]
[Drawing his sword, Zoro sliced through a building, sending shivers down the others' spines...]
[If Kaido is alerted before the battle commences, it will spell disaster for everyone!]
[These two Straw Hat Pirates are truly a handful!]
[However, to everyone's surprise, alongside Zoro and Luffy, there was another member on their team known for their violent tendencies and impulsiveness: Kid!]
[In a fit of rage, Kid also joined the fray, engaging directly with many of Kaido's men!]
[His fury peaked when he laid eyes on Apoo, the traitor who had double-crossed their alliance. Kid spared no effort in confronting him head-on!]
[It's worth noting that Kid, Apoo, and Hawkins had formed an alliance with ambitions to take down the Four Emperors!]
[However, their plans were thwarted when they encountered Kaido descending from the sky, and Apoo betrayed them without hesitation, resulting in Kid's capture.]
[Before the actual battle commenced, Zoro, Luffy, and Kid began stirring up trouble on the haunted island!]
[Their actions left those lurking in the shadows utterly powerless...]
Witnessing the antics of the trio, countless spectators couldn't help but marvel.
Just as expected of Luffy!
Just as expected of Zoro!
Just as expected of Kid!
Sneaking onto Onigashima and following orders is certainly not their style!
The original strategy of leveraging their current strength to overthrow Kaido and Big Mom's joint rule proved ineffective.
And now, they're still refusing to play by the rules!
This significantly diminishes the chances of success for the rebellion plan!
The road ahead looks even more daunting...
[With Big Mom having formed an alliance with Kaido, it's naturally impossible for all members of the Big Mom Pirates to engage in conflict with them over their initial skirmish with the Three All-Star...]
[The scene shifts to the outskirts of Wano Country!]
[A sight unfolds: the Big Mom pirate ship leisurely approaches Wano Country!]
[Turns out, after being cast into the sea by King, one of the Three All-Star, not only did Big Mom miraculously wash ashore, but she also narrowly escaped death.]
[Her cadre likewise survived and regrouped with the pirate ship.]
[Though they incessantly grumbled about being attacked by Kaido's men prior to entering Wano.]
[But now that Big Mom has teamed up with Kaido, they can't afford to clash with her for the time being.]
[Their main target now is the Straw Hat Pirates and all the samurai who resist.]
[Such a person is quite unpleasant. After all, the previous incident left people feeling somewhat down.]
[But with Kaido and Big Mom joining forces, it's natural that they can't be stopped from entering Wano Country.]
[Finally, they can safely enter Wano Country...]
[However, what they didn't anticipate was that the next moment, a shadow appeared in the sky!]
[It was the silhouette of a giant bird, identical to King, one of the three All-Star from before!]
[This left everyone dumbfounded...]
["Didn't it say our two pirate crews formed an alliance? Is this guy still trying to hinder us from entering Wano Country?"]
[Everyone immediately assumed battle stances, but as the figure flying in the sky drew nearer, they realized...]
[The other party wasn't King, one of the three All-Star!]
[Instead... it was the First division captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, Marco, also known as Marco the Phoenix!]
[Marco's appearance shocked everyone to the core!]
[After all, the Whitebeard Pirates had long been disbanded, and all their members had vanished.]
[Why had Marco, who had been missing for so long, shown up in Wano Country?]
[Seeing him like this, it seemed he intended to prevent them from entering Wano Country!]
[Sure enough, in the next moment, Marco launched an attack on everyone.]
[All the underlings and officers of the Big Mom Pirates immediately counterattacked.]
[Marco spoke with a contemptuous expression.]
["Do you know what a phoenix is? Your attacks have no effect on me!"]
[In a swift motion, Marco endured the onslaught of attacks from everyone, emerging unscathed, before delivering a powerful kick to the Big Mom Pirates' ship!]
[With a resounding impact, the entire crew of the Big Mom Pirates found themselves once more plunged into the unforgiving depths of the sea, their resistance futile!]
[Just like the last time when they were sent flying by King's kick, they went offline again…]
As the live broadcast aired, a heavy silence enveloped all the viewers.
"…"
Why does this scene feel so familiar?
These poor souls, knocked down yet again.
The plight of the Big Mom Pirates knows no bounds!
