>"Fine. You win. I'll take Sakazukis head as tribute. But this is far from over Garp."

Should we be a dick and take his sword/walking stick as well?

Idea

Silver: I'm not gonna take his head, You are.

>>5588649
>"Fine. You win. I'll take Sakazukis head as tribute. But this is far from over Garp."
He did help us a lot
Clear the debt

>>5588649
>>"You're wrong Garp, on so many levels. But above all else you're wrong in assuming you can stop me."

Why are ppl acting like we're all buddy buddy with garp? literally the only reason garp stepped in b4 was because we were slaughtering the fodder, not out of any sort of kindness or mercy on his part, this definetly just feels like a meta we like garp decision than anything IC

>>5588670
And what does he know about how eliza or we would feel? garp spent all his time trying to murder her and he doesn't know us at all, silvers not a good person by any stretch of the imagination who'd feel guilty about this late, he's just saying whatever shit he needs to so we retreat and then he can regroup the marines and try to kill us later

>>5588670
Be cuz we tired, if we keep fighting there will be important casualties on our end, and we want akainu's head above all others.

>>5588674
Im not seeing indication silvers weakening in the update, am i missing something?

>>5588677
We're tired of this war, Eliza is dead and all we want is revenge at this point.

Also, all our other guys are likely fighting to escape

>>5588691
Yeah and garp is trying to prevent us from taking revenge, like even if we get sakazuki kizarus still the dude who took her in aswell, the seraphim are still alive probably so they also need to die, and ultimately fujitora and garp and the rest are still high tier marines, no way silver doesn't view them as atleast partially responsible, like i as said this just kinda reeks of a meta thing of ppl not wanting to kill fujitora and fight garp and the rest of the "good" marines because they like them

In a surprising turn of events Silver agrees to relent

>>5588649
>"Fine. You win. I'll take Sakazukis head as tribute. But this is far from over Garp."

Because we told Murray we were leaving... and this is a great second arc for the marines.

You glare straight into Garps eyes and see that behind the stoic front that he's putting up he's shaken. With a smirk and a chuckle you pull your leg away and turn around. The marine shakes as you show your back to him and walk away.
"Fine. If you want to do it the hard way then so be it. But first. Kneel."

"What?!"

"You want this to be over? Fine. But I won't make it look like you did anything other than grovel at my feet. Beg. Unless you want That to happen again."
You point upwards at the fissure in the sky that formed the moment you clashed. Knowing what's at stake Garp gets on his knees and puts his head on the ground.

"Fine. Please. I beg of you. Enough."

"GARP! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"

"That fool."

The two other elders comment on this but you pay them no mind.
"Good. I'm taking my prize now. Anyone tries to stop me, they die."

"Yes. Of course..."
He grits his teeth.

"I'm glad you understand."
You say that with a smile.
"But one more thing. You were wrong, about almost everything you said."
Garp looks up confused.
"Why are you surprised? I told you already, you just weren't paying attention. This isn't about Eliza and I'm not the least bit mad. From the moment I understood there was nothing to be mad about. This isn't about revenge, or justice. Those are your feeble words."

"Then... what were you-"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNWSDvDqm9g

"This is nothing more than pest control."
Garps eyes shoot up.
"I thought you could learn. That sooner or later you'd get the lesson I was trying to teach you all. But it seems you're too stupid for that. Every time you touched me I showed you just how much scarier I can be than you are. You took my eye and my arm, in turn I took your gods. I tore down your forts because you messed with my crew. But you still think you're the ones in control. You can't learn. So I came to the only logical conclusion. And I'm no longer willing to hold back. If you can't learn from a smack, then it's time to give the next ones a chance."

"W-What?!"

"Once I'm done with you someone will inherit your will and a new idea of Justice will be borne. Hopefully they'll be smarter than you and learn... that this is My World. And they get to live in it because I let them."
You spread your wings once more as you prepare for take-off.
"You want to live a bit more? Fine. That means you'll get to see what comes next and bear witness to my age. Want to stop me? Feel free, I'll even give you one shot. But you get up from your knees and I'll tear off your legs before I make you watch as I slaughter everyone in front of your eyes."
No response comes from him.
"Thought so. Consider this my declaration of war then. And tell your men that soon the seas will run red with the blood of those that bear the seagull on their flag."

>>5588649
I'll back this>>5588656
Debt is debt, we pay fairly.

>>5588728
Luffy smallest dog in the sea now.

So we kill off the Seraphim? Since they just robots?

>>5588738
If the Warlords couldn't finish em by the time we collect Satsuki's head.

>>5588733
I honestly expect Luffy to get off his ass and match us because for all his idiocy he is not, in fact, stupid.

He knows damn well what Silver is and what we can do, and he knows if he wants something that runs counter to what we want he's going to have to fight for it.

The Marines thought Silver was a man to be broken, Luffy knows Silver is like the Sea and if you want to sail you pull up your big boy pants and get to goddamn work.

How many men gonna quit after this?

>>5588761
As if the world government will let them quit.

>>5588761
A lot I'd wager, desertion is going to be a problem after the leadership has been wrecked like this... morale is going to be fucked across the five seas

>>5588761
Yes. I expect a sharp increase of men after we leave, for whatever odd reason

Also, a ton of people will be flocking to us, like it's one thing to become an Emperor, to fight the Navy's best and WIN is another entirely.

Your wings flare up and fire shoots out of them. Like a comet you fly away and through the hole that you punched into the fort, looking for Akainu, or the crater that he made. Locating the place was not an issue but he's nowhere to be seen. Landing with a loud crash in the middle you see a roughly fist-sized hole going down into the ground.

"Come out you mangy mutt. Come out! Don't make me go after you! Come, show me that justice of yours and I'll show you mine."

Suddenly you see the ground cracking open under your feet and orange-red light shines in your face as magma erupts.
"TAMBORA!"

The explosion rocks what's left of the island and Marineford with it. The pride and joy of the marines that you previously punched a hole into collapses until nothing but rubble's left. Ironic that the Fleet-Admiral who commissioned its construction is the one that ultimately demolished it. Hundreds of tons of magma and rubble is sent into the sky and above the clouds. An apocalyptic, blood-red glow bathes the entire island in Akainus glory. Right up until a vertical slice first divides the pillar of magma in two before the gales following the attack harden the molten rock into an abstract, almost fountain like statue.

Akainu is the only thing left emitting any light and he's looking up at your blackened blade.
"My turn."

You thrust Argent into his side faster than he can react, and plunge it where his liver is. That's the weakspot you detected and you drive all your hate and malice into it. Your haki surges through his body, ripping it apart at the seams. Blood spews from his mouth as well as his side. But once he manages to suppress the flow he spits what's left in his mouth in your face before speaking.
"What are you waiting for? Do it! Kill me. But it won't bring your whore mother back! Nothing you ever do will. And one day, when your bones are nothing but dust, nobody will even remember you ever existed!"

"You want to think that don't you?"
You pull your blade free which makes him almost pass out. After sheathing Argent you grab Akainu by the throat and take to the sky. High above the battlefield you open your mouth and speak with a voice of absolute authority.
"Marines. Look at me. Look at your boss and weep."
You plunge your free arm into the hole you just made, then you let go of his throat and put the other one in. Then... you start pulling them apart.

Red rain falls on the most unfortunate ones. They are the only ones that make any noise beside Akainu throughout the whole thing. But after a point no sound is made. Not by them, nor Sakazuki. No one.

If Silver encountered Cross from this bites, how long would it take Silver to cut his head off?

>>5588778

I don't think anything we say are gonna top that.
Also holy fucking hell. I'm surprised Kaido isn't laughing his ass off right now.

That implies Silver would care or that Cross would try to stop him.

Cross would see this shit happening and go "Sounds about right" with a side of "couldn't have happened to a better group of idiots. Shame about the rank and file."

Nah he's talking about that really large one piece fanfics protag

>>5588833
there's another one piece quest running?

>>5588834
Nah not a quest, a like billion word fanfic

>>5588839
And absolutely nothing changes

>>5588839
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11515678/1/This-Bites
This, never read it personally, looked at the tv tropes and a couple of the decisions made instantly turnt me off from it, like the fact someone had the "human human fruit model: child" even though that doesn't make any sense

>>5588842
a fanfic can have a million words but it can also be garbage give me something good that does not exceed 100k and I will enjoy it more

>>5588840
Doesn't Ace in that fic get explicitly saved from his canon capture leading to his execution, only to get completely randomly side swiped by a different admiral and die anyway? Shit's fucked up.

>>5588846
Agreed, as said i can't really judge it since i've never read it though

>>5588849
More like he beats Teach with backup but Ice Prick captures him anyway and Teach gets away.

And then marieneford happens anyway

Should change from this bites to, this changes nothing.

So whats the Damages?

Marineford is thoroughly destroyed, one of the seraphim are dead, all warlords besides Kuma defected, Akainu and Aramaki have bitten the dust.

Several vice admirals are no more.

And thats just us alone

"That was your final warning. This is what happens to those that stand against me. I'll let all of you go today. But I will come back and wipe you all out. Every single marine. If you wish to do something about it now's your chance. Or if you value your life you'll learn your place and submit."

You land down on the ground, your wings folding up and retreating into your flesh. You casually walk through the crowd without paying much attention to the faceless crowd. None of them matter, not the heroic champions who distinguished themselves and still stand proud, nor the lame and the crippled ones who were ruined in the conflict. That is not to say that they feel the same way about you. Not all are frozen in place.One or two try their luck. But you always let them get one hit in before retaliation. The wise ones, the onlookers who don't have the guts to raise arms against you see the swords of their comrades shatter on your skin before their bodies are reduced to ruined flesh. All the rest fall in line pretty quickly after they see the results of defiance.

All but one.

"Are... you... kidding me?"
A beaten and bloodied kid stumbles out of the thick crowd, clutching an arm. You can't tell if his hair is naturally that crimson or if it's from all the blood.
"L-Look at this! Look what you've wrought! All this destruction! All this... this death! And you think you can just walk away after all that? You're an irredeemable monster!"

You stop and look at the faceless peon. He does seem familiar but you can't quite recall from where and don't really care either. However he is standing up to you.
"Congratulations. You figured it out. What are you going to do about it?"

He clutches his arm even harder.
"I... may not be able to do anything. But I know that if I let you go now then I'll have the blood of thousands on my hand."
He's now on the verge of tears.
"E-Everyone called me naive. Now I know they were right! I thought things could be done differently! That things could be resolved peacefully! But now I've seen true evil and I know where they were coming from! Sometimes monsters like you... must be stopped at all cost! Because letting you live is too dangerous! AAAAAAAAAAA-"

He lets out a battlecry and charges you. It's not to get anyone to follow him, rather it's to convince his own terrified heart not to give out. He jumps in the air and kicks you in the neck. It does nothing. But the punch that you throw in return almost knocks the life out of him and sends him flying backwards. The fact that he did not explode like the rest is honestly impressive.

"KOBY!"
You hear another voice as someone rushes to him.

"Mary..."

>Silver: I'm here because you assholes kidnapped my mom, you were the one's who decided to screw with me. This is what happens when idiots like you try to fuck me over.

It's like they can't learn this one simple lesson: Don't fuck with us

Why the hell are they playing the victim here?

>>5588871
Surprisingly i don't think its that bad, atleast compared to how it could have been, like yeah akainus dead but sengokus almost certainly being reinstated as fleet admiral straight away so there won't be a major gap in leadership, then its just about replacing aramaki as an admiral and houndning vegapunk to get a new set of seraphim ASAP if SWORD isn't like garp/sengokus personal project and the WG knows about it all members of that will almost certainly be called by aswell

>>5588883
like they're certainly bloody and battered by the orginazation isn't in danger of collapsing in of itself like it would have been if we'd killed the other 2 admirals and garps trio

>>5588883
I mean, Sengoku is on his last legs, so its possible Fujitora will become the new Fleet Admiral.

>>5588883
Also, Seraphim don't grow on tree's, they likely require months if not years of preparation too make, not too mention the MASSIVE funding going into them.

And thats if the Warlord's don't decide too pay him a visit for cloning them...

>>5588873
>I would have ignored you goons if you just stayed in your lane. My mother is dead, and for what? So I have to teach this lesson with as much blood as possible, so the stupid can drown.
>Don't blame me for this, your owners caused this intentionally, and look how that worked out
>Point at Satsuki's carcass.

>>5588888
Agreed but ultimately the seraphim were an auxiliary force meant to combat the emperors, which the marines aren't going to be doing anytime soon now, rn its a mad rush to cover up assets and recover not worrying about venturing forth and battling

>>5588886
I mean not really? we've not seen any signs sengokus like horrendously weaker, like obviously not in his prime but any stretch but could 100% still tangle with some of the strongest ppl in the world, plus rn they need him more for his mind and leadership not power, though if not sengoku we could potentially see kong retire from being commander of the WG and taking back his old fleet admiral position

>>5588895
I mean, he was getting pretty damn sick of War and likely reaching his limit.

Same with Garp, both of them are out of their prime and not prepared for a second coming of Rocks.

And probaby Tsuru as well, she didn't even TRY to fight us.

>>5588903
Yeah but they're also not the kind of ppl to leave when doing so will literally have the marines collapse in on itself and either lead to an age of piracy that'll make this one look like a joke or have the WG have to go full 1984 to prevent that

>>5588907
Just saying, they are not the men they used to be, they don't have much left in them, and they have just lost two of their strongest fighters.

I feel the marines will be on the defensive for this war. Since they just took massive cadualties and their main weapons are getting dunked on.

"I feel like I should tell you Mary that your dad begged me not to hurt you. But if you attack me that offer will be null and void-"

"Koby! Are you alright?"

"Cough... n-no."

"Koby you have to listen to me. You were not naive! You were not wrong. There is a better way. Do not let yourself get sucked into his spiral of violence like I did!"

"Mary... I'm so sorry."

Are they ignoring you? How dare they? Do they not realize the situation they're in? No matter. It's not like they can do anything anymore. They are beneath your notice. You leave them behind and continue your walk towards the shore unimpeded. At the end you see an armada of ships on the horizon, leaving. Only one remains here, yours. But rather than feeling happy about them being here for you there's another matter at hand that's a bit too distracting. A giant dragon chuckling well above it.

"Wororororo. I knew it'd pay staying sober for this. Got to admit kid, you promised me something and you delivered. Not something I'm used to. Kudos."

"Kaido. And where were you exactly?"

"Where? I was fighting the boys from the prison if you already forgot. Great fun. The government boys did not spare any expense on the entertainment! Even though Teach took the cream of the crop they still had some prime fighters down there. Sadly not Joker, guess they're smarter than I thought. But still. You should be thanking me! Those guys would've been trouble for you."

"Remind me of something Kaido. You have the voice, right?"

"Uh-huh."

"So you knew what was going on."

"I may have."

"And let it happen."

"Yuh. And you failed to stop it. Both for the same reason. Eliza needed to die. It's that simple. I knew it, she knew it. We all knew it. Bet even you did, this was your destiny after all. And you can't really argue with results, can you? I mean look at you! I'm getting shivers just looking at that arm of yours. I only wish Linlin could be here to see this worororo."

"Yeah. You're right. This wouldn't have been possible without her. But if it meant getting mom back I'd give up this power without a second thought."

"Oh come on, don't be like that Silver! The time for moping has passed! Now's the time for fun! We got MUCH to prepare for! Together we will plunge this world into a new era of blood and fire! It's going to be great!"

We just left, its the outskirts now.

>>5588991
Anons have gotten too cocky it seems.

If we're lucky, we can at least agree too rest up, since I doubt he wants to fight a guy exhausted.

Rest back at Flower Capitat and try too kill each other there.

But in all honesty, why the fuck did people think this was a good idea?

Like, why piss off a powerful ally in a war you just declared over someone half of this site doesn't actually care about?

>>5589016
So we should just bow our head like a bitch cause we're afraid he'll attack us? yeah that sounds IC

>>5589018
Its not fucking bowing head you numpty, its agreeing to a War like we already fucking planned, he was just getting involved.

Eliza wasn't his friend or family, he did what was asked, why the hell should he risk his life for someone he doesn't give a shit about.

Really, its just Anon's getting to fucking arrogant at this point.

We learned our lesson about "making friends" from linlin. Never again.

>>5589023
When did we ever agree to his war? we literally only called him up cause we were desperate and he agreed cause it sounded like a good time, and lets be real kaido never intended eliza to leave here alive, i've now doubt if we did somehow manage to look like we were escaping with eliza kaido would have attempted to kill her himself

>>5589027
Did he kill her?

Did he sabotage us?

No

He did what was asked of him, and we might as well have had an alliance while we could, cuz why the fuck not?

He didn't put his neck out to save Eliza, thats his only 'crime' and we know you don't actually give a shit about her.

We? Who's we? There's you and there's me. You, the dragon who's been sitting on his ass for years doing nothing. And now me, the one who'll actually make war. And you will get in line."
You clench the black hand into a fist.
"Or I can go through you."

Kaido seems... pleased.
"Wororororo! You know, in any other circumstance I'd be pretty pissed right now. But it bears repeating, I knew you were going to say that! Hell, I was waiting for that to happen! The moment I saw your power awaken I wanted to feel it for myself! YES! The strongest will lead and the weak one will fall in line! As it should be! Isn't that right, Rocks?"
The massive dragon looks famished, eager, almost lustful.
"AH SCREW IT! I've been fired up for too long! Let's just skip straight to the fun part! And you BETTER make this entertaining for me Rocks! If you disappoint me I'll destroy everything you love out of spite!"
He pulls out his giant kanabo out from behind him and he begins changing. But even though you've never seen his hybrid form before you're certain this is not it. The titanic dragon does not shrink one bit, rather his body expands, widening and swelling with a never-ending mass of muscle. His kanabo similarly expands until it's the size of a battleship.
"Let's see what you got kid!"

The voice of the mountain sized lizard shakes the heavens and earth as well. But you're not afraid.
"Gladly."
You call upon your newfound strength and use it to infuse every muscle and bone in your body as you transform. The awakening responds well to the haki and you grow beyond your previous limits as you awaken. You don't reach Kaidos island shattering size but you do get about halfway there as a fellow monster.
"Silver Style: Kain."

You draw your sword and the two of you clash with your weapons. The ringing sound, as if someone sounded the bells of heaven, could be heard several islands away.

And that is where I'll be ending things for today. Next week is gonna be dubious at best as I got a test coming up on the weekend and must study for it. But we'll see. I'll have some free time after that so Sunday may be doable
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed yourselves.

>"So you knew what was going on."
>"I may have."
>"And let it happen."
>"Yuh. And you failed to stop it. Both for the same reason. Eliza needed to die. It's that simple. I knew it, she knew it. We all knew it. Bet even you did, this was your destiny after all. And you can't really argue with results, can you? I mean look at you! I'm getting shivers just looking at that arm of yours. I only wish Linlin could be here to see this worororo."
>"Yeah. You're right. This wouldn't have been possible without her. But if it meant getting mom back I'd give up this power without a second thought."

You know, sometimes i doubt Silver as a protagonist, but exchanges like this remind me why i have respect for him.

Not for all the power in the world would he have willingly traded his mom. But he has it, and now the world can't undo the asskicking that's coming to it for what they did. Kick his ass Silver. Not because it's smart, but out of fucking principle.

You know what we should have done?
Project big memes voice behind Kaido and say "I am here Kaido, what are you talking about?!"

>>5590865
You know what we should have done?
Yelling "It's morbing Time" and morb behind Kaido

Finally caught up.

Spookyng and readers everywhere, you may remember me as the guy who was responsible for such omakes as Sandersonia’s Own Hurricane of Love and Eliza’s Bones In the Ocean.

Seeing this battle and Garp bowing to us, I’m proud to have been a small contributor to this quest. Even if it did not have as long a run as the Nazi Hallow Bleach Quest, and I know that this one is still going, but since One Piece is still going strong at the present, the quest storyline catching up to it, and I’m going to be starting a career that will be taking me away from being able to freely browse wherever I want, I just wanted to thank this Spooky and all the fellow anons. Glad to have seen this quest up to this point.

>>5596643
Godspeed anon.

Had my exam done today.
Next session happens on monday

>>5596643
Cheers anon. You were a real OG, and the fact that you went above and beyond with those omakes is truly something else. Thank you for playing. And I only hope the remainder of the quest will bring you joy, should you read it
Take care

>>5596643
Good luck faggot.

The impromptu clash between you and Garp was nothing compared to this contest of titanic might. Both heaven and earth are rent asunder with a great divide forming between the two of you, marking a border that stands between your influences. The sky ruptures with the clouds being consumed by what looks like a never-ending void. The sea parts and starts flowing upward at the line of your clash, revealing the seabed for, what must be the first time in history, to natural light. At least what little light can make its way down there. Indeed it looks like the white and blue seas have merged as both are forced to move ever upward to the heavens.

The winds blasting through this valley that you created carry with them an eerie sound, the sound of rattling. Only after the numbness in your arm starts to fade do you realize that it signals that Kaido is pleased. For it is the sound of his scales shivering.
"Wororororo. Yes. This is what I've been yearning for. This is the glory that's been denied to me. Come Rocks! Show me the meaning of Death!"

The dragon screams as he winds up his kanabo again. Though you're at what feels like the peak right now you still don't wish to directly challenge him head on if you can avoid it, so you get moving. Moving deeper into the ravine of water you lure in Kaido who seems to have completely lost himself to a lust for battle or a furious trance. The constant ringing as kanabo and sword clash keeps the wall of water from crashing down on you and serves as an excellent deterrent to keep even the most suicidal of people from following you into this unnatural phenomenon.

As you jump from coral beds to lava vents whilst parrying the dragon you notice glowing eyes peering out from the waters. The greatest of the Sea Kings have gathered to witness this most unusual of events. Yet their voices are quiescent. It's as if they are waiting with abated breath for one of you to come out on top.

"OY! WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE LOOKING?! BORO BREATH!"
Kaido opens his maw and spews out a beam of fire. Not willing to be outdone you answer in kind and answer with your own. The two blasts detonate in the middle and form a half-sphere shaped arena in the water. But you can only take it in for a moment before Kaido rushes you again. He slams down his club and as you block it you feel your legs sinking into the bedrock below.
"Perfect! This will be the place for our duel. Stop fighting and the water will come crashing down on us. Then we'll both drown and there will be no victor. Now let us fight! TO THE DEATH!"

>Remain silent and fight
>"You almost sound like you want to die."
>Other?

>You really wanna die that badly? You really are a weenie...

>>5599817
>>"You almost sound like you want to die."

Also our name is Silver damnit, not Rocks! Who is that guy anyway, I don't think anyone has ever explained it to us

>>5599817
>>"You almost sound like you want to die."

>>5599817
>"You almost sound like you want to die."

So what are chances Kizaru is dead?

On one hand, Silver mentioned he must have fled, but it seems more like an assumption.

While given what happened to Green Bull...

>>5599851
He's probably checking on his brat
>>5599817
>"You almost sound like you want to die."

>>5599817
>"You almost sound like you want to die."

Well Silver seems to be playing psychiatrist for the moment.

Still that doesn't mean the giant dragon doesn't want to squash you so.

"Tatsumaki!"
Kaido stretches out his arm and his scales grind against each other. Each segment of the dragons steel like hide serves as a blade and each one sends out a slicing cut through the air. Luckily your wings can perform the same function and with a swipe you send out a few larger cuts which manages to counter his offensive. He jumps over your attacks and showers you with a barrage from his kanobo.
"Gundari Ryuseigun!"

Only by wildly flailing with all four of your upper limbs do you manage to match his attack. But the result of that is that he's locked above you, perpetually pressing down with a shower of blows and you having to hold him up. It's not easy, not by any means. Despite his prodigious size he's swift and his supreme mastery over observation means not even your enhanced senses offer an edge over him. But there is one thing that you do possess that he doesn't. Size, namely the lack of it. It's a bold move to perform in this situation, against such an opponent. But it's the only one you can think of.

After one last parry with your sword you let go of it, turn off your awakening and turn into a tiny bat. Kaidos eyes open wide as you snatch Argent out of the air and carry the weapon up to him. As the edge of the blade slides against and through his scales you wince, since without the awakening it's roughly the same as hitting someone with a toothpick. But it's better than nothing. You fly past the emperor and he screams as a tiny amount of blood spurts out of him. Quickly as he falls to his knees you reactivate your awakening and stare him down.

Kaido seems taken aback by the fact that he got hurt. Supporting himself with his kanobo he takes his free hand and holds it over the wound. After removing his hand he looks at his blood stained palm and chuckles.
"Good. Very good. It's been so long since I've felt anything. I'd almost forgott-"
But you don't let him monologue. Instead you jump him, grab him by the horns and headbutt him as hard as you can. The impact widens the arena even further. As Kaido stumbles backwards he snaps at you.
"HEY! LITTLE SHIT! I'M TRYING TO ENJOY THE MOMENT!"

"Enjoy the moment? Sounds like you're just aching to die!"
You snap back at him as you now go on the offense and start chasing and showering Kaido with blow after blow.

"Of course! Haven't you learned anything?! Just as how the ending of a story is paramount how one caps their legend determines the value of their lives! Roger! Newgate! Both idealistic fools! One defeated by an illness, the other succumbed to old age! Yet because they managed to close their lives in spectacular manners they managed to write HISTORY! Whilst mightier men have been buried by the world because they didn't go out with a BANG!"

>>5599887
HERO

"RAIMEI HAKKE!"
Kaido winds up a mighty swing to get you off of him. You're eager to retort.

"Black Voice."
Your attacks fail to connect. Instead your black arm and his club appear to hover in place with arcs of black lightning erupting from the empty space between them. And the seabed shakes in fear.

"THAT'S WHY I'VE DONE EVERYTHING! BUILDING AN ARMY OF DEVIL-FRUIT USERS! SUBJUGATING NATIONS TO PRODUCE WEAPONS! ALL TO PREPARE FOR THE FINAL WAR! A WAR WHERE I MAY DIE ON THE BLOOD-SOAKED BATTLEFIELD OF THE GREATEST CONFLICT! OR THE ONE WHERE I FINALLY SNUFF OUT THIS BORING WORLD!"

"Bullshit."
The kanobo slides off your fist and your hand moves forward. Even before the impact Kaidos face indented and when you touched it he was visibly in quite a bit of pain. Getting decked in the face quite hard, he flies backwards and almost goes into the wall of water but he manages to slam his club into the ground to anchor himself down.
"If you wanted to wage war you could've done so. You're the strongest. It would've taken nothing for you to fight. Instead you sat around, wasting time with weaklings and building armies. You were just afraid."

Kaido stands back up after blowing some blood out of his nose and laughs. He then raises his hand and engulfs the arena in his fire, which keeps the water out even as he rests a bit and talks.
"That's what you think. But you're still just a naive brat. You're still like everyone, oblivious to the world at large. If you survive this day and go on to take your place at the big boys table you'll learn quickly just how things really are. The top is a lonely and boring place. Once the world looses all the fun, the adventure you'll learn exactly where I'm coming from. And once it dawns on you how powerless you are at changing things you'll do the exact same thing. Or try to kill yourself, like I did. Wororororo."

"Then how about you cut the crap and just tell me?"

"Tell you? Heh. Don't kid yourself. You wouldn't believe it anyway, or understand it. Only by experiencing the truth can you be enlightened. But enough about that! We're having fun now! Come! Show me some more! I'm only starting to enjoy myself!"

>"Fine. If you want to die so badly then I'll oblige."
>"I'll show you alright. I'll make you submit Kaido. Then I'll drag you up and make you watch as I carve my name into the world."
>Other?

Unlike this lonely bastard, we actually have something to live for.

Our friends. Our family. Our land. Just to name a few!
Even if the adventure ends, silver will live out the rest of his days a happy man!

they are so similar in so many fucked up ways... Despite being an utterly reprehensible person I kinda just wanna see Kaido happy. Cause if he can be, so can Silver.
At the same time... He hasn't felt alive in so long, and it is how Silver would want to go out.
Violently enjoying himself.
I don't know what to vote for, there are no wrong votes.

"I'll show you alright. I'll make you submit. And once I'm done beating you to a pulp I'll drag your battered, broken body just so I can make you witness me carving my name into the world!"
You take Argent and wind up your arm until its behind your back.
"Oh and one more thing Kaido. Call me by the wrong name again and I'll carve it in your hide too. I am Silver!"

Kaido stood there, stunned. As you leaned forward and put your free hand on the ground for extra leverage, with your sword behind your back, and with what you just said he could swear that he was seeing a silhouette of his formal captain. As darkness oozes out of you to cover the whole place he gets even more worried as only the flames surrounding his body are what provide any illumination. He only manages to snap out of his stupor once you're already on top of him, ready to tear into him. You slide Argent neatly between his ribs, prompting him to howl from the pain. Only a moment later he brings down his Kanabo on you and smashes you in the ground. As you get bonked on the head the handle of your sword slips out from your grasp but so does the spiked club from Kaidos. Both of you stagger to stand up and look at your respective, lost weapons.

"Wororororo. Interesting!"
He cracks his knuckles.

"Yeah."
You do the same.

The two of you start walking toward the other confidently and once within range you throw the first punch, which almost bounces off of the titanic dragons immaculate physique. He returns the gesture with a scratch from his saber like talons, meant to disembowel you. But the haki infused, bristly fur offered adequate protection from the lacerating attack. Once it became obvious that mere physical force would be insufficient you started discharging elemental attacks in tandem. Tongues of flame, arcs of lightning and gusts of shearing wind flew freely and with such force that a great deal of them made their way through the entire volume of the sea and reached the surface, where the bewildered crowds undoubtedly soiled their pants at the wrath of the elements.

But not even that suffices. So with no other options left both of you resign yourselves to even more ferocious forms of combat as nothing short of pure murderous intent would be fitting for this moment. You jump Kaido, grab him by the shoulders and open your mouth as wide as you can before biting down on his neck. That gets a brief shout from him before he returns the favor. Blood drips on the ground from both your shoulders as you're eager to consume the other before he could do the same.

>>5600020
I knew we would try eating people eventually, I guess I was premature last time, eating Kaido is more fitting for a pair of monsters.

>>5600026
Its like two animals trying to get the other to submit

We gotta make him our bitch though.

The sensation of teeth and will trying to tear your body apart is almost unbearable. But you know that he's feeling the same, and Kaido admitted that he's not used to such sensations. If you just keep this up then-
"Wororororo. Looks like we're pretty evenly matched. I'll have to put in some more effort! I wonder if you'll be able to keep up!"
He breathes in huge volumes of air through his nostrils and you feel a great heat rising within. His body starts glowing as he reaches temperatures too much even for you.
"Kaen Daiko!"

Not willing to be defeated you follow suit.
"Black Escaton!"

Fire explodes from within you as well and two pillars of pure, radiant heat erupt from the sea like twin volcanoes. Steam and molten rock shoot into the sky as the sea and the rock below evaporates and melts. Eventually though the two explosions subside and finally you separate, each missing a chunk of flesh from your shoulder. It stings like hell and it bleeds even more. But at the very least you managed to yank your sword free of Kaidos breast when he pushed you away. Sadly he also stumbled in the direction of his kanabo so now he has that back as well. He gives his shoulder a good twist as he picks his club back up, causing blood to spurt from it. Then Kaido reaches for it.

"Wororororo. I might actually die here. This is the best!"
He conjures flames in his palm and uses them to cauterize his wound. You decide to follow his example. Then he uses his free hand to reach behind his back and takes out a gourd that was strapped to his waist. Without wasting a moment he bites the cork and rips it out before chugging the gourds contents. You highly doubt he has some fresh water in there in case he gets thirsty.

"You're really going to drink now?"

"Of course! Life is meant to be enjoyed! And I'm having a blast now! So why shouldn't mix the pleasures a bit?! Hic."
He wipes his mouth then presents the gourd to you.
"Want some?"

"Fine. Give it here."

Nonchalantly Kaido tosses the gourd across the battlefield. You snatch it out of the air and give it a sniff before sipping from it. It's strong, obscenely so. A cautionary glance back at Kaido reveals that he's getting drunker by the second after taking a swig of this stuff. Naturally you've learned how to handle alcohol better from Shakki. However you don't feel like dampening the effect. In fact, you want it to hit as hard as possible. With that you start chugging the gourds contents like it's the freshest milk.

"Wororororo. Hic. Now THIS is what it's all about! None of that stupid samurai shit, or the stupid machinations. You get drunk with a fella and then you murder each other! That's how it should be!"
Kaido then stops as he sees you discarding the empty gourd.
"Whoa there. You didn't really have to drink the whole thing-"
And he gets punched in the face for his trouble.

Grinning and quite wasted you respond.
"I did! Now pucker up!"

"Oh youuuuuuu~!"

And this is where I'll have to end things for today.
Apologies, but I already posted in a wrong thread once. Don't care to repeat that.

Kaido slides backwards and you slide under his retaliating swing. But before you could throw another punch the dragons tail coils up behind his back like a spring and shoots him out of harms way. Now behind you he attempts to break your legs but you manage to quickly jump on his Kanabo and it carries you a little while before you jump off and turn to kick him in the neck. You get blasted in the face by Kaidos explosive breath and were it not for the supreme levels of heat evaporating all the water in the near vicinity you'd be drowning now. But before the waves could come crashing down you flap your wings and jump back at Kaido with Argent drawn and a wicked grin on your face.

The colossal drunkard feels just as elated and winds up his kanabo.
"HA-"

"-KAI!"

At the moment your weapons clash the sea retreats and gives you ample room to fight in, forming a great bowl with with a vortex for walls. Though impossibly deep those who can fly or are foolish enough to sail near the waters edge, before it starts dragging them down, can see two shining dots at the bottom of the dark hole. Kaidos blue scales slowly turn red and your black fur whitens due to the heat rising from within. The alcohol did more than just remove your inhibitions, it washed away all the confusing thoughts still swirling in your head, giving you both a singular purpose. Thoughts of the great war he was making vanish from Kaidos head, as do ones pertaining to your imminent conquest. Now the only thing that matters is the individual before you that you must make submit. Not monster, not emperor, not a usurper, a kid or a reincarnation of a once famous pirate. Just another man.

You both grin as the wild energies continue to rip the bedrock of the world around you apart. Though this place would be an appropriate battlefield away from unworthy eyes it's a bit limiting, having to watch for the waters so they don't drown you both. You decide to take things elsewhere. Breaking away from the clash for a moment you take to the skies with flames shot from your wings propelling you to the heavens and Kaido jumping up on clouds of fire. To onlookers it looks like two shooting stars going backwards. Eventually you burn two holes through the clouds as you pass through them and once beneath the stars and the moon you get back to murdering each other. Every one of the myriad attacks you hurl at each other set off flashes of brilliant light that briefly illuminate the white sea of clouds below, burning the silhouettes of a dragon and a bat into them. To the world it looks like two titans are murdering each other in heaven.

Sliding back and just barely managing to steady yourself on a cloud you watch as Kaido straightens his back, looks up at the stars and chuckles to himself.
"Yes. This is what I dreamed of. Finally someone who managed to kill my boredom and give me a proper fight. It's going to suck when you die. But I think that'll finally give me the push I need to end this miserable world."
He turns back to you.
"You should be glad Silver. You were right. I was a coward. I stooped to the level of all those weaklings. I'll do things properly. With my own two hands. And to show my appreciation I'll do it in your name."

>Attack him while he's busy talking

>"So that's the big idea? If you can't take the world you'll just destroy it? Pathetic."

Silver is smiling again, ladies and gentlemen we've finally gone from "I'm not enjoying this and none of you are going to either" towards being who Silver would like to be again. Now bants!

Well would silver be ok leaving the slaves to rot while he knew he had the ability to free them? cause like the only thing that was stopping him b4 that he knew of was the marines, which we've just demonstrated are no threat anymore, so idk i just don't see silver sitting on his hand doing other shit while he thinks theirs literally nothing stopping him anymore, the only thing he really needs are ships to transport the freed slaves and thats it, so a simple trip back to outer heaven, getting a fleet to transport the slaves and finding out where the world nobles fucked off to, which someone has to no where since no shot would the world nobles have gone in anything less than luxury, also assuming they took all the slaves from mariejois and didn't leave any there that we can go pick up

"I wouldn't get ahead of myself Kaido. You haven't won yet! The one who'll make this world bend its knees is me! Just like how I made one of you Emperors yield!"

"WORORORORO! THEN COME ON! MAKE ME! SILVER! SHURON HAKKE!"

Like a never ending wellspring of power Kaido just keeps intensifying the fight. Now in his drunken rage his movements have not only become faster but far harder to follow as he moves in an almost unnatural way. For everyone but the most puissant of fighters it'd be impossible to merely follow his movements, let alone keep up with them. But you're not everyone. With the Red Voice you attune yourself utterly to Kaido. Down to the smallest detail, you copy his way of moving. Even your heart starts beating to the same rhythm.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qI2zlab2vI

With lightning fast but utterly erratic motions you run along the surface of clouds beating back Kaidos attacks and throw just as many back at him. Against their wishes the clouds are dragged by the winds you make and the clanging of steel makes it sound like the most vicious of storms is brewing. As sparks continuously fly off all around, you spare one glance at Kaidos face. His eyes are more alive than any other mans that you've seen. He's like a person who died a long, long time ago but he was given a chance to enjoy life for a little bit once more. He has achieved nirvana. The alcohol has long been beaten out of his system. What fuels him now, and what got him drunk is the fight itself.

"MORE! GIVE ME MORE! RAIMEI-"

"Silver Style-"

"-HAKKE!"

"-Black Voice."

The two of you dash past each other, delivering the deadly attacks with only the faintest of touch. After that, it's silence. Both of you wait for the result, to see who gives in first. Your knees buckle under the pressure and one of your legs give out. Falling onto a knee you hold your side as it bleeds profusely. But you manage to staunch the bleeding with a bit of fire and with a heavy grunt you get back up.
"Heh. Good enough."
Kaido muses to himself as his chest explodes in a shower of gore where your haki tore him inside out.
"So this is what dying feels like. The sweet nectar of blood. Finally I get to taste it. Tell me. How did you manage to get that strong, if you're not Rocks returned? What is the secret behind that monstrous strength of yours?"

You wipe some blood from your mouth that you coughed up before answering.
"You had all these years to figure it out and you didn't. I can't help you understand it now."

"Eh. Fair enough."

The dragon now jumps in the air, spinning his weapon around above his head before falling down on top of you with murderous intent.
"THEN COME SILVER! LET US WELCOME THE END OF THIS WORLD IN BLISSFUL IGNORANCE! KOSANZE RAGNARAKU!"

You put your sword back in its sheath and spread your arms, welcoming what's about to come openly. He hits you square on the head and it feels like your head is about to be split apart under the weight of armageddon. But even as your vision goes red from the blood seeping from your skull you grit your teeth and bear with it until most of the attacks punch passes through you. Though Kaido is still smiling so are you.
"Kek. People always said I have a thick skull!"

"Huh?!"

You bring your arms in and embrace Kaido in a BIG hug, big enough to make his steel hard hide crack under the pressure. He smashes his spiked club into your back once more and though he does break one of your wings it doesn't matter anymore. You're not letting go of him. Not until this is done and over with. Your eye bursts into reddish flames as your arms bulge with as much strength and willpower as you can muster.
"SILVER STYLE-"
And you lean backwards.
"-SUNSET-"
And the two of you start falling.

Kaido screams and howls both from the pressure you're putting on his open wounds and from the shock of what you're doing. He tries to pry himself free or to smash you to bits but even he realizes after a few attempts that even if you die your lifeless corpse will still cling to him like a fire ants head. So you continue to descend faster and faster. The burning wind around you howls with smoldering fury as a dome of heat forms around your bodies. You spare only as much attention from Kaido as you need to find a suitable location for your landing. Lucky for you it seems that an island started forming at the site of your underwater scuffle from all the lava that you brought to the surface. It'll do perfectly. As you get close enough to the ground you finish naming your attack.

"-SUPLEX!"

You figured that since Kaido hit you with his strength that rivals heaven itself, you wouldn't get too far just whacking him the same way. Instead. You'd hit him with the earth. Since he's much bigger than you his head reaches the ground first and absorbs most of the damage. But that still leaves plenty for you. So much so that after the mushroom cloud from the impact abates you feel like your whole world is spinning. Thankfully you do manage to shake it off with a bit of effort and waddle over to Kaido who's even deeper in the crater. He's moaning.
"Owww."

It looks like this finally put a dent in him. Now you have a chance to finish this fight for good.

you know what Kaido I like you, you can have it your way this time

>>5606064
>>"End of the line Kaido. Time to die" (Lethal route)
I just don't see kaido bending the knee really, like this is exactly what he wants, just to die after a really good fight, so if we attempt to recruit him i feel he'll just attack us again and again until we kill or he somehow manages to turn the fight around, either way though i think it taints his final battle

>>5606064
>>"Had enough? Or learned your place yet?" (Recruitment attempt)

It's kind of funny that we had a big emperor alliance vote just to go back to Kaido.

>>5606064
>>"Had enough? Or learned your place yet?" (Recruitment attempt)

>>5606071
He can die in the super war that Silver is about to start.

>>5606064
>"Had enough? Or learned your place yet?" (Recruitment attempt)

>>5606071
You mean we might reignite someones will to live, bring some colour into his life and draw him out of a drunken, sad, stupor that has lasted for decades?
That seems like a damn kindness.
I just wanna see everyone happy despite us being an omnicidal monstrum

>>5606072
Its more we are wearing the pants now

>>5606089
I mean we're really not though? kaido would still only really feel alive while fighting on the edge of death, its not like we're giving him some new purpose to believe in and fight for, like we're not changing his world view here

Tbf if this fails, we'll just kill him probably

>>5606096
You are very right.
It would probably be better for everyone if we ended things right here, he might still try to destroy everything we love just to make us actually do it.
But we're flawed people playing a very flawed person, and despite it all i think Silver has lost enough people he likes today.

>>5606100
Yeah but do think it'd taint kaidos death slightly in his eyes if instead of silver killing him naturally he basically had to bang his club on him a few more times to actually get him to finish him

>>5606100
i'd be fine with that too, honestly
call him a fighter to the end if you want, but he's just going to get his head bashed in with his own club

>>5606064
>"Had enough? Or learned your place yet?" (Recruitment attempt)

Okay
Recruitment attempt

sheesh my man be careful, roll so bad it may just make us fail on principal lol

"Not enough for you? Or have you learned your lesson yet?!"

"Urrrgh. This one's gonna be one bad hangover."
The giant pulls his head out of the ground and shakes himself awake.
"Sorry, what was that? I have rocks in my ears. It sounded like you're asking if I was about to surrender or not."

"That's correct."

"WORORORORORO! You must be out of your mind! Give up?! NOW?! When I'm having the most fun of my life?! You're dumber than I thought! The only way this ends is if one of us dies! I told you already!"

"Yes. You said as much. But I'm not the stupid one here Kaido."

"What?"

"Here you are, having fun for the first time in years. And all you can think about is when it will end, instead of how you can have more of it. That's the problem with you Kaido. You're strong as an ox, but too dumb to lead your own life."

"THE HELL ARE YOU SAYING?! I was having a blast up until now but if you start hurling insults now I swear I'll-"

"Let me finish. You said you wanted to change things and you couldn't. Right?"

"Y-Yeah. I thought I could become Joy Boy and change the world. But I just couldn't do it."

"No wonder. You're strong as an ox but too dumb to lead a fulfilling life. Isn't it obvious? You're a fighter, not a leader. You could beat anyone but have no idea how to run things. You sat around years, building a worthless army to wage a war. That's not what you are. You're an oni that's meant to break things. Now look at yourself. You're doing exactly that and you're enjoying yourself. You got too hung up on how, what and when to fight instead of just doing it. And in your solitude things got warped in that dumb head of yours. You want to die that badly? Fine. I'll blow your brains out if that's what you want. But if you want to live, if you want to fight and if you want that precious war of yours then all you have to do is follow me."

Kaido looks at you in utter silence. He's scowling but he's not saying a word. He's mad, or wants to be. Or rather he knows that he should be. But on some deeper level he feels like you're RIGHT. And the way he's looking up at you with reverence confirms your suspicions. He's having flashbacks of older, simpler times. Times that may not have been the best, but they were certainly better than this. And when a man is offered everything that he years for on a silver platter, what would he do? He could have the legendary fights of the last era, the war to end all wars, one violent enough to maybe shake the world down to its core and instigate a greater change. And he'd loose all those pesky responsibilities that chain him down.
"Rocks..."

"Silver."

"Silver. Take me back! I don't want to do this shit no more!"

"Then kneel! And together the seas will go back where they belong. To us!"

"Yes... captain."

And that is where I'll end things sadly.
But now that the war is officially over I feel comfortable doing it.
Next session we'll move on from the perpetual conflict.
I'll see you guys later

>>5606302
Thanks spooks

>>5606301
>"Yes... captain."

What a fucking time to be alive. Geopolitics... Oceanic politics? Fucking everything has changed and is fucked because of this war and it is fantastic. Everyone is gonna have to re-evaluate everything.

>>5606301
Silver is now the strongest force now. I can't wait for the world war

Well... Silver's position just got a whole lot better...

>>5606302
>>5606308
Gentlemen, the war has only just begun. It is on pause for now since Silver has to cross out some things on his to do list but this has only been the first battle. Thanks for running btw Spooks.

>>5606308
>"Okay when those two are done killing each other we just have to jump the survivor when he pops up. Whoever it is will probably be on death's door so we should be able to take them out."
>silver and kaido both emerge
>"SON OF A GOD DAMN MOTHERFUCKING BITCH"

Hmm how will this developement affect yamato? silver and yamato have a good relationship don't they? so if silver goes to wano and yamato asks fort silver to tell kaido to let them leave i don't see silver saying no

>>5606327
He's Silvers bitch so he'll just do what Silver says.

>>5606339
Yeah kaido will agree to any request now but talking more like what yamato would do, like i might say join our crew but with yamatos conflicted feelings towards kaido b4 realizing the bomb cuffs weren't a bluff they might just set off on their own or if they meet luffy might join up with him

>>5606360
Yeah, we're probably going to have to fight Yamato at some point, and the star hats too, now that I think about it.

Maybe just let them have Wano or release the slaves.

Otherwise its none of our business.

You know who we haven't heard a goddamn peep out of during this entire thing?

Red Hair Shanks. And his silence has me slightly worried.

>>5606689
He's getting ready to make a move™

>>5606664
I mean conceding our territory to another crew just to avoid confrontation is the epitome of looking weak

>>5606794
I mean, we clearly don't need or want it anymore, so its just a waste.

If they still wanna fight tho, lets fucking go.

>>5606828
I mean it doesn't matter if we want it or not, its ours, so just giving it to another crew will make us look like we're scared, plus kaido has laid down roots there and his crews big enough that he does need his own island

>>5606839
We got dozens of other islands, and so does he.

>>5606857
Yeah having kaido move out of his home with his tail between his legs makes it look like we're scared of luffy, and thats how the entire world would see it, plus we have no reason to just give wano to him in the first place, like obviously we're gonna have to have kaido change how he does things but that does not have to involve giving the island to a complete other unaffiliated crew

>>5606864
>luffy
literally who

we waited two years for this nigga and he never showed up or did shit

>>5607263
I can't wait for him to show up and we hit him with a "I don't want to play with you anymore".

>>5607289
>While you spent two years training, i was drinking rum and fucking my hot wife
>By the way, the mermaid princess is also my wife
>and a snake lady from amazon lily
>get fucked goofy

also, a reminder that silver had a daughter without having sex, will soon have more kids BY having sex, killed or subjugated all of his enemies up to and including the emperors and world government, built a floating pirate city, had all kinds of adventures and literally trained to do it purely by fighting super strong people to the death

what an absolute gigachad

>>5607386
Well to be fair we're only engaged to two of those.
Also who'fy doesn't know what sex or alcohol is.

>>5606664
Better plan: remake Wano (if we win the war there)
instead the retarded retards that they are, going on about tradition at the expense of everything else Silver and/or Kaido and/or their people could just go about and tear everything down.
If your traditions are that good, fight back, win. Show us how much their fucking worth to you, and if they're not we will show you the simple truth of the world, that your capacity for violence decides if you can be free or not.
So start acting like actual samurai and be more concerned with winning then honour, cause there are bits of of Wano I can see Silver not being repulsed by.

Lot's of people will die. Lots and lots and lots of them, but who cares, it's wano and after the revolt has been crushed we can remake it in our own image.

>>5607393
reminder he did all of this while luffy spent that amount of time dicking around being useless and "training" like a weenie when all he had to do was fight strong people until he stopped being a weenie. Quite literally just get good.

>>5608661
>Weenies and the world government hate him
>This simple trick will make you the strongest force on the seas
>It just links to a picture that says "just fight them bro"

>>5608661
I mean tbf gotten more power from actual fighting in canon than silver has here hasn't he? like besides the timeskip training all of luffys power have been gotten while fighting, got advanced observation mid-fight with katakuri, got advanced armament mid-fight with mooks/queen, got advanced conquerors and awakened during his fight with kaido, but im blanking if silver unlocked any power ups mid-fight except this new conquerors power, like even his awakening happened right b4 he got in a fight instead of mid-fight, and needed to do a training period for the big mom fight

>>5609072
Most of his 'training' is just constantly fighting till he figures it out.

Like the closest thing to actual teaching he has gotten have been live demonstrations, hints by Eliza, or being actual learning like with the books.

Most of the stuff like Shakushi he learns through combat or figures out.

Wano I don't think we should really interfere too much in--besides the fact that leaving now would be a admission of weakness no matter how we slice it, leaving right now would be disastrous to the people living in wano rn. It needs to be a slow gradual leave or else the people over in wano will fight again with the shogun--which will cause many more deaths that the red scabbards will have to deal with.

>>5609101
You know, you are selling me on just leaving wano.
Could we invade it later and see if they'll put up a fight?
