On the other side, Caesar Clown breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the message from Doflamingo. He immediately asked his subordinates to bring the failed artificial devil fruit left by Vegapunk to Basire.
And he himself was still at the secret port, ready to escape at any time. He didn't dare to meet Basire in person.
He didn't dare to show his face until the Big Daddy Pirates left.
"This bastard Basire is so aggressive that he is actually looking for failed products of Vegapunk. Are you looking down on me?"
He cursed a little and said that after all, he is also a top scientist second only to Vegapunk, and he also has artificial devil fruit technology.
But Basire actually ignored him completely, he was simply a reckless pirate who didn't know what he was doing.
It was Doflamingo who had the vision and took the initiative to cooperate with him.
Under Caesar's order, his subordinates quickly took out the failed artificial devil fruit and sent it to Basire.
Basire looked at the strange fruit in his hand that looked a bit like an apple but was covered in circles. This was different from the normal devil fruits which made it look a bit ugly.
Seeing that Caesar and Doflamingo are so sensible, Basire was too lazy to continue messing with them now.
"Let's go to Whitebeard's territory!"
Basire immediately ordered after everyone had eaten the giant red dragon.
"Yes, Captain!"
The crew of the Big Daddy Pirates immediately boarded the ship and continued their voyage. Whitebeard's territory was waiting for them to conquer.
The current remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates are still coating their ships in Sabaody Archipelago in order to return through Fish-Man island.
The Big Daddy Pirates could have occupied the main islands before they came back, without giving them the chance or time to organize a resistance.
After conquering these territories, they can go back and clean up the remaining Whitebeard party.
However, there is now a very special island in Whitebeard's territory. Whitebeard, who is nostalgic for his old feelings, has always maintained a high degree of independence on this island.
This is the base camp of the Rocks Pirates, Hachinosu!
This island is currently occupied by Ochoku, a leader of the Rocks Pirate and a great pirate whose strength is second only to the Yonkōs. He has inherited the will of the Rocks and the remaining members of the group.
In the original work, even Blackbeard, who has the ability to use dual fruits, only finally ended the rule of the great pirate Ochoku on this island through a three-party joint attack by Marine Koby and Trafalgar Law.
This inadvertent tripartite joint action became known as the Rocky Port Incident.
This incident earned Koby the title of 'New Marine Hero', and Trafalgar Law also stole the hearts of a hundred pirates during this incident, in exchange for the title of Shichibukai from the World Government.
Blackbeard also successfully occupied Hachinosu as their base camp and officially became the new Yonkō.
This major event in Rocky Port witnessed the rise of a new Marine hero, new Shichibukai, and new Yonkō.
···
At this time, after the fall of Whitebeard, Ochoku, the great pirate on Hachinosu, also had the idea of becoming a Yonkō.
He began to quickly occupy the islands nearby and expand his power.
Edward Newgate and Charlotte Linlin who came out of the Rocks Pirates became Yonkōs, and even their junior Kaido also became one.
While he occupies Hachinosu and occupies the main base of the Rocks Pirates, his development was restricted by Whitebeard and that left him fixed on this island.
He endured this for twenty or thirty years, but he was unwilling to give up the island left by Captain Rocks. Later, he saw the young man Shanks also become a Yonkō.
This made him even more uncomfortable.
Now that there are no restrictions from Whitebeard's part he began to recruit pirates under the Whitebeard Pirates crazily. He also wanted to become a Yonkō now.
Everyone is a big pirate from the Rocks Pirates. Whitebeard, Big Mom, and Kaido of the Beasts have become Yonkō one after another. So why can't he?!
In the Skull Mountain Palace of Hachinosu.
"Tamamo, send all crew members out immediately to fully occupy Whitebeard's territory!"
Ochoku shouted wildly and loudly, Newgate is finally dead!
Then his territory is my territory.
"Yes, Lord Admiral!"
A charming woman said sweetly. She immediately walked out of the Skull Mountain Palace, quickly arrived at Rocky Port with Ochoku's order, and sent out all the pirate fleets under their command.
Ochoku initially hesitated for a day when he saw that Basire had obtained Whitebeard's devil fruit ability, but his ambition kept growing. And after a day of consideration, he finally made up his mind to grab the free position of Yonkō.
Ochoku is 69 years old this year, three years older than Big Mom Charlotte Linlin. If he doesn't compete for the position of Yonkō now, he will die of old age without having done it.
And the most important point is that Whitebeard is nostalgic and can tolerate the existence of Hachinosu on his territory.
But will this would-be Yonkō Basire allow him to continue to maintain his independence?
Therefore, there must be a big battle this time.
If he wins, he becomes the new Yonkō. If he loses, that's it for the rest of his life.
Otherwise, after Basire becomes a Yonkō officially and stabilizes his territory and power, Ochoku will either surrender or be annihilated by this young man.
Now, while Basire has not fully grown up, he might really have a chance to kill him.
Ochoku also firmly believes that Whitebeard is what made the tremor fruit so strong.
Not every tremor fruit user will be as powerful as Edward Newgate!
…
On Rocky Port.
"Young men!! Whitebeard is dead, Ochoku-sama is here! We on this island have officially begun our battle to seize the position of Yonkō."
The top cadre of the Ochoku Pirates, Nine Tails Fox Tamamo announced loudly to their crew, her voice full of temptation, and her graceful figure made countless pirates go crazy.
"Long live Ochoku-sama! Tamamo-sama is the best!!"
The pirates who were already gearing up at the port shouted excitedly. Among them, there were one or two hundred pirates with a bounty of more than 20 million beris.
This shows the great strength of Hachinosu, the island of pirates.
Nine Tails Fox Tamamo, with a bounty of 770 million Beria, Zoan Inu Fruit, Mythical Species, Nine Tails Fox form, has the ability to transform into anyone.
She is very powerful and has very strange abilities. She is also loyal to Ochoku and is also Ochoku's woman.
The Grand Admiral of Hachinosu, Ochoku, has a bounty of 1.399 billion Beris. He has the Paramecia Island Fruit ability. He can integrate with the entire island at any time, turning into a towering island giant and suppressing all troublemakers who invade the island.
This was also another one of the reasons why he didn't want to leave this island before.
