Pirate, I am the demon fox that brings disaster to the world!

"Smoothie?? What are you doing here? Get out of here!"

Smoothie's sudden intervention forced Katakuri to stop the fight in his hands. He quickly rushed to his sister and said with a worried look.

"Brother, stop it. This battle is meaningless. You don't have to go to this extent! You should have realized it, right? The advantage is no longer on our side..."

Hearing this, Katakuri's expression became heavy. Indeed, through the battle with King just now, he had roughly estimated the strength level of both of them. In terms of domineering and physical skills, they were equally matched. However, he had become more proficient in the development of the fruit due to his years of accumulation.

However, the opponent's abilities are obviously only possessed by mythical beasts!

With the powerful recovery ability of the mythical beasts and that strange black flame, a protracted battle is obviously disadvantageous to me! In the short term, they may be evenly matched, but as time goes by, I will definitely be the first to show the weakness!

"Damn it! Where did the Beasts Pirates get so many mythical beasts? An average person may not even see a mythical beast user in their lifetime, but on this tiny island, two have already appeared?

Not to mention the woman among them who exudes a dangerous aura, and the nine-tailed boy who is suspected to be able to control memories..."

Are you just going to retreat like this? Hand over this island to me? And ignore the grievances my sister has suffered?

Katakuri felt a little frustrated. Since he showed his talent in the New World, he had never encountered such a dilemma. If he really insisted on fighting, it would be good for both sides to suffer losses. But if he retreated, he would not be able to swallow this breath...

His mind was in turmoil. While staring warily at Yakumo Haku and the others opposite him, Katakuri was thinking about how to break the impasse.

"Wait! It seems that the reason why Mom asked (me) Smoothie to seize this island is to add a chocolate production area... to prepare for the first tea party in two years... and if Mom is angry because there are not enough desserts..."

Smoothie, who was also struggling to think of a way to resolve the conflict, suddenly remembered the purpose of his trip. He raised his head and looked at Katakuri who realized something.

Well, they are indeed siblings, with a special tacit understanding (a painful lesson)!

The information that seemed to have nothing to do with the current situation gave the two people new ideas. Perhaps... they could make use of it?

"Brother, leave it to me. This matter started because of my lack of ability, and I have to end it too."

Thinking of this, Smoothie suddenly cheered up a lot, then nodded firmly to Katakuri, and then turned to Yakumo Shiro and said,

"Hey! Yakumo... Shiro! We admit defeat this time. It's okay for us to give this island to you. However, for the tea party in two years, we have to prepare a lot of desserts for mom!

If you let her know that the preparation of the dessert was delayed because of you, you should know what the consequences will be!

Even Kaido wouldn't want to face an angry mother, right?"

Upon hearing this, Yakumo Bai, who was speechlessly watching Lilith greeting Yaoye with a flattering face, was suddenly stunned, and even his tail, which was swinging freely, drooped down.

Tea party? Was this island the source of ingredients for Big Mom's desserts? I didn't expect that the island that was originally thought to be just a small conflict would not only be ruled by Smoothie, but also be related to the tea party after gathering the second-in-command of both sides.

If Big Mom, whose mind is full of sweets, goes crazy because of this, it will be a big trouble. Although Kaido is on top of everything, she cannot be sure whether the reckless old guy will push her out.

After all, in his opinion, this might also be a training? If he could let Big-Mom be his thug for free and teach him a lesson, he would definitely be happy to do it!

"But since Smoothie has brought it up, we should negotiate terms, right? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that they only have her and Katakuri as combat forces, while we have so many talented people here... The outcome is already doomed."

Sure enough, Smoothie continued,

“We can retreat, and in exchange for handing over this island to you, you have to provide the necessary ingredients for the tea party. This will be good for both parties, and we can both avoid having to endure our mother’s wrath.

I think if it's just a few raw materials, it shouldn't be a big deal for the Beasts Pirates, right?"

After saying that, Smoothie looked at Yakumo Bai nervously. Although such a condition was only a drop in the bucket compared to the entire island, after all, the initiative was in the hands of the other party. He wondered if the boy would agree...

"What do you say, Jin? Such conditions are extremely generous!"

Yakumo Shiro looked at Jin who was thinking beside him. After all, this was a matter concerning the affairs between the two major pirate groups, so he should listen more to the opinions of this elder in this regard.

"Haha~ Charlotte Lingling... apart from her monstrous strength, she is just a crazy woman. Moreover, it seems that she has caused great harm to her own children! She actually made them willing to make such a big concession.

Well, Master Yakumo, it is not a bad idea to accept their conditions, but you are still the future leader of the Beasts Pirates. I have the upper hand now, so whether I agree or not depends on your opinion."

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Yakumo Haku didn't care about King's sudden expression of loyalty. Not to mention the years of getting along, the other party was already like an elder to him. Just based on his performance in the original work, it was enough to win the recognition of Kaido and himself.

Sometimes we have to admit that the vice-captains in the pirate world all have a unique charm.

"Of course, I can exchange a few dessert ingredients for an island. I won't miss such a great benefit.

Besides, Totland's tea party! I'm looking forward to it too!"

Hearing this, Smoothie's nervous expression immediately relaxed. It was good enough to agree. There were many islands in the New World anyway. It was just a small island and he could still snatch it from others. The important thing was to be able to contain the conflict at this moment. This time was crucial.

Thinking of this, Smoothie was about to say something polite to end this brief negotiation, but Katakuri suddenly said,

"The invitation to the tea party will also be sent to the Beasts Pirates. Yakumo Shiro, you will come too, right?"

"!!!"

Why didn't I think of that! That's right! As the leader of the New World, the Beasts Pirates must also be included in the list of invitees to the tea party. If that's the case, then isn't it possible...?

With an expectation that he couldn't explain, Smoothie turned to look at Yakumo Shiro, nervously waiting for the other's answer.

"A tea party... a gathering of all forces. At that time, the rulers of the dark world will also come together. Hmm... maybe I can use this opportunity to establish a connection. You know, the resources gathered in the underground world are not ordinary rich. Whether it is the Beasts Pirates or my own plan, a lot of devil fruits are needed..."

Thinking of this, Yakumo Bai immediately smiled and nodded.

"Of course, how could I miss such a grand event?"

Hearing this, Smoothie secretly clenched her fists, her heart leaping with joy, and even the wounds on her body felt a lot lighter, but of course she couldn't show this on the surface, so even though she was very excited inside, the girl could only try her best to suppress the upturned corners of her mouth and restrain her expression.

However, unlike Smoothie, Katakuri smiled.

Today, I cannot capture you despite your large numbers. But when we reach Wan Guo, you will be in the enemy camp and I will be able to capture you. I will do whatever it takes to vent my anger for my sister!

They are not seriously injured and on the verge of death, but at least they should "a little welcome" the guests who have come from afar. After all, as the children of Kaido, the King of Beasts, it is not too much for someone to want to experience their strength, right?

The brother and sister, with different thoughts in their minds, looked the same. They reluctantly gathered their men and left the island on the pirate ship they came on.

After successfully settling this small conflict, Yakumo Haku also returned by boat with the girls. This trip can be said to be very fruitful. Not only did they win the entire Zou, copy the historical text, successfully bring Yaoye back, accept the potential panda Panda and temporarily keep Carrot as a pet, but also obtained a mythical beast fruit for Jin, and earned an island from Katakuri...

The next step is to thoroughly reorganize Wano Country and bring it completely into our own hands!
