----------

Hakumai, submerged port.

A giant pirate ship hoisted its sails, with a red beast head specially added to the bow and silver steel spikes on both sides of the hull, looking extremely dominating.

Groudon.

As a new All-Star, Daichi had his own battleship, and the modified parts had been prepared in advance.

On the shore, Yamato's eyes were red.

Last night, she cried all night with her face buried in a pillow.

"Daichi, I want to go out to sea with you too."

"Stay home obediently. If there's anything you don't understand, ask Aomushi. If you're really bored, travel through Wano Country, and don't forget to visit the Kin Inari Shrine."

Daichi advised her in an exasperated tone.

Being a Shogun wasn't house arrest. This little girl didn't know how to use her power. She just needed to learn from Orochi.

"I'm leaving."

Daichi boarded the battleship without looking back.

"Depart!"

"Oh, oh, oh!"

Groudon sailed out of Wano Country, with roaring waves and sea breeze rushing towards them.

Daichi stood on the deck, looking at the turbulent sea, feeling a bit uneasy, and couldn't help but let his mind wander.

With such big waves, the ship won't capsize, will it?

Or be swallowed by Sea Kings...

Page One noticed Daichi's abnormality.

"Brother-in-law, what's wrong?"

"Nothing, I'm going to stay in the ship's cabin for a while."

Daichi shook his head and returned to the cabin.

He had realized why he felt uneasy.

He wasn't standing on the ground!

As the Land God Groudon, losing the support of the earth would weaken his endurance, but the impact wasn't significant.

It was more of a psychological factor.

He hated the sea!

"When I become awesome in the future and evolve into Groudon Form, I'll definitely fill this sea!"

Daichi secretly swore to himself.

To reclaim land from the sea, he would at least need to evolve into his complete form. If he wanted to rewrite the world map, he would probably need to evolve into the strongest Groudon Form.

Hehehe, that's decided.

He wanted to create a world without the sea!

Daichi looked at Ulti not far away.

This trip to Hachinosu, in addition to the usual configuration, he specifically brought the siblings to assist him.

"Ulti, bring the sea chart!"

"Okay, Daichi-sama♡!"

"Pour me a cup of coffee."

"Coming right up."

"Newspaper."

"Damn it, get it yourself!"

On the other side, Hachinosu.

As a pirates' paradise, Hachinosu has always been a contested area for pirates. For decades, only the strongest could occupy this place.

Its previous owner was named Rocks.

After the Battle of God Valley, the Rocks Pirates disintegrated, and Hachinosu became the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates, remaining so until today.

Near the port, the Moby Dick.

"Wow, Ace won another splendid victory!"

"Ace subjugated the Doma Pirates!"

"So strong!"

A party was held on the deck to celebrate Ace's victory.

The pirates highly approved of this newly joined companion, not only because of Ace's powerful strength but also because of the trust they quickly built in Ace.

The Whitebeard Pirates had not accepted new members for a long time, as most pirates were ruthless villains without morals, making it difficult to distinguish good from bad.

But once they accepted a new member, they would unconditionally trust them and treat them as family.

Ace did not disappoint them!

"Ace, good news!"

Thatch, Commander of the 4th Division, wrapped his arm around Ace's neck and happily raised his glass to the pirates on deck.

"Whitebeard just said he wants Ace to be Commander of the 2nd Division!"

"What?!"

The pirates were greatly surprised.

Since Oden left, the position of Commander of the 2nd Division had been vacant for a full 21 years, and no one expected Whitebeard to let someone inherit this position.

After a brief silence, the pirates excitedly raised their glasses and cheered.

"That's great!"

"If it's Ace, no problem!"

"I have no objections either!"

"Hahahaha, from now on we'll call Ace 'Commander'!"

The news of Ace joining the Whitebeard Pirates had not yet spread, but once he became a Commander, it would surely be known worldwide.

This was very important to them!

In the past decade or so, Whitebeard had rarely taken action due to his illness, and most enemies were handled by his sons.

But this led other pirate crews to believe that Whitebeard was truly old, and more and more pirates dared to challenge them, just like the Doma Pirates that Ace had just defeated.

Therefore, with Ace joining and holding an important Commander position, it would undoubtedly enhance the deterrent power of the Whitebeard Pirates!

"I'm going to be a Commander?"

Ace was stunned.

By his calculations, he had been on the ship for less than three months, and for most of that time, he had been challenging Whitebeard.

He had challenged him a hundred times!

And had been crushed a hundred times as well.

Night raids, assassinations, direct challenges.

He had used almost every method, but each time he was instantly defeated by Whitebeard, eventually calling him Whitebeard with tears in his eyes.

Ace still remembered the bold words he had said to his subordinates when he first entered Whitebeard's territory, pointing to the sea ahead.

"Do you think we can get 1 billion Berries if we defeat Whitebeard?"

"Huh?"

The past was too painful to recall.

"Ace, Ace!"

His companions' shouts brought Ace's troubled thoughts back.

Marco vigorously patted Ace's back.

"Ace, don't just stand there stupidly, everyone's celebrating for you!"

"Ah, oh oh!"

Ace reacted, quickly raised his glass, and took a big gulp.

He felt secretly delighted.

Although becoming a Commander deviated somewhat from his original goal, at least half of his dream when he set sail had been achieved.

He wanted to be famous throughout the world!

First, become a Commander, then push Whitebeard onto the Pirate King's throne, and finally continue his path to becoming the strongest.

This was his path forward!

"Bad news!"

Suddenly, there was a commotion on the deck.

"We just received news that a Beast Pirates battleship has been spotted in the southwest. Judging by its course, its destination is Hachinosu!"

"Beast Pirates?!"

The pirates were shocked.

"What are they doing at Hachinosu?"

"Are they coming to wage war on us?!"

"Damn it, don't underestimate us!"

Not long ago, the Beast Pirates had just concluded their expedition, and their brutal conduct still instilled fear in the New World.

They were a bunch of war fanatics.

Where the Beast Pirates trod, only ruins remained!

A clash between Four Emperors was no small matter!

Marco shouted.

"How many ships do they have?"

"Only one!"

One ship?

The Commanders, who had been tense, relaxed considerably.

Since the Beast Pirates only had one ship, they probably weren't coming to fight them. There had to be a limit to their overestimation of themselves.

No, those madmen couldn't be judged by normal standards.

Maybe there was someone with a death wish!

"Quick, notify Whitebeard!"

"Yes!"

After giving instructions, Marco turned to look at Ace, and couldn't help but be surprised.

Why was he sweating so much?

"Ace, what's wrong?"

"I... I'm... fine."

Ace tremblingly raised his glass, spilling all the liquor.

Only one ship!

It must be that devil!

That guy must be coming to collect his debt!

If that guy found out he had become Whitebeard's Commander and came aboard, how could he face anyone?

He absolutely couldn't let that guy find out!

According to his plan, once he saved enough money to pay off his debts and redeem the IOUs and photos, there would be no evidence left.

He had to at least get through this one!

Ace stiffly turned his head to face Marco, forcing a smile that looked worse than crying.

"Marco."

"What is it?"

"Can... can I not be a Commander?"

"Huh???"
