The vast battlefield fell into a dead silence.
Looking at this uninvited guest, both pirates and Marines were dumbfounded.
Too arrogant!
This was a fierce slash that even the dignified former Marine Admiral, Black Arm Zephyr, couldn't block.
Yet, it was dismissed as worthless by this bald guy.
"You damn bastard! How dare you interfere with my mother's orders! If you do this, Dad won't acknowledge me!" Weevil sniffled and was the first to react.
He clenched the naginata in his hands again, without any fancy moves.
He slashed fiercely towards Kai.
Puchi!
With one slash, the air seemed to tear.
The Armament Haki was pushed to its limit, displaying a flowing, mist-like aura.
The crackling Haki electricity splashing out further enhanced the momentum.
Fueled by anger, this attack was completely different from the previous one.
It felt as if an invisible giant hand was churning the air in this space!
"Careful!"
Ain, who was behind him, her face changed drastically. Sensing the sharp aura attacking her, she couldn't hold back and cried out urgently.
However, before Ain could react, Kai moved first.
Without any fancy moves, in full view of everyone, he turned his head and bit down on the incoming naginata.
Clang!
Sparks flew, and a crisp metallic collision sounded.
The black-glowing naginata was forcefully bitten and shattered.
In the next moment, in full view of everyone, a vein bulged on Kai's forehead, and the naginata in his mouth shattered.
Fragments scattered everywhere on the deck, creating a lively scene like raindrops on banana leaves.
Looking at the Haki on the fragmented blade rapidly fading.
The vast battlefield seemed to be swept by a biting cold wind, instantly falling into an inexplicable silence.
Looking at Kai, who shattered the naginata with his mouth, everyone's eyes were almost popping out.
Was this still the Weevil who had just displayed immense power and cut off the arm of the dignified former Marine Admiral Zephyr?
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, who would believe this was real?
"Your sword is a bit hard. Don't get in the way of my business. Go cool off to the side." Kai spat, his dead fish eyes flickered, and he walked past Weevil, looking towards Zephyr.
This glance instantly tensed the nerves of both the Marines and the pirates present.
At first, they might not have known Kai's origin.
However, this action now undoubtedly confirmed his intentions.
"Little brother, I am Baccarat, Edward Newgate's lover from the Whitebeard Pirates. This is Whitebeard's biological son, Weevil," Baccarat said, her withered face twitching, and she quickly said in a deep voice, "Zephyr and these new recruits are the prey we have our eyes on."
"My precious son naturally possesses Whitebeard's strength from his youth and will only become stronger with time."
"He has now been chosen by the World Government and the Five Elders to inherit the position of Seven Warlord. If you step aside now, we will not mistreat you after we are done."
With that said, Baccarat revealed a threatening smile. "Once my son becomes a Seven Warlord, he will gain Whitebeard's recognition."
"As a pirate, you should know that Whitebeard is the strongest man on this sea."
"I am his lover, and Weevil is Whitebeard's biological son. You should know what Whitebeard values most, right?"
As these words fell, the expressions of both the pirates and the Marines, including Zephyr and the others, changed.
Family!
That was what Whitebeard valued most!
If what Baccarat said was true, and they had this relationship with Whitebeard.
Then many people would likely hesitate to act!
"Are you done?" Kai's dead fish eyes flickered. "Then please move aside, you're blocking my way!"
Looking at Kai walking towards Zephyr as if he were alone, everyone's throats felt choked by an invisible hand.
After Baccarat shamelessly dragged the Whitebeard Pirates into the conversation.
Kai's disregard not only meant he was looking down on Weevil, who claimed to be Whitebeard's second generation.
It also gave the impression that he didn't even care about Whitebeard himself.
"You... why are you looking for me!" Zephyr gritted his teeth and said, clutching his severed arm.
"If you want my head, I can give it to you. However, I hope you can save my new recruits."
"If you agree to my condition, after I die, I will have Ain deliver a message to Sengoku, recommending you as the new Seven Warlord!"
"Seven Warlord?"
Baccarat's expression suddenly changed, and she shouted sternly, "Zephyr, you're courting death!"
Kai's dead fish eyes flickered. "Are there eight Seven Warlords?"
"Or did I become a fake Seven Warlord!"
"Fake Seven Warlord?"
The expressions of everyone present froze.
They were all people who roamed the seas and knew clearly about the candidates for the Seven Warlords.
Now, this bald man of unknown origin claimed to be a Seven Warlord.
It completely overturned their understanding.
"Teacher Zephyr, he's not a fake Seven Warlord. Three days ago, Marine Headquarters and the World Government issued a joint announcement that the person succeeding the former Seven Warlord Crocodile is the one-punch man, Saitama!"
Ain leaped from the pirate ship onto the warship.
The content on the front page of the newspaper she held up instantly captured everyone's attention.
Especially the bounty amount on it made people rub their eyes.
When they clearly saw the amount, their facial expressions twitched.
No!
It should be said that even Tina's facial control was lost for a moment.
Not long ago, when she received the newspaper from Kai, she also suspected she had misread it.
However, after repeated confirmation, a Seven Warlord with a bounty of 50 Beli.
This was the first time they had seen such a thing.
Of course, Kai knew that this was definitely Garp's doing.
Since the Saitama template had set sail without committing any evil deeds, the World Government and Marine Headquarters, under pressure from the seas, had to recruit Kai as a Seven Warlord and didn't have time to issue a bounty.
They could only let Garp randomly put an insignificant amount on it.
"Ding-dong, congratulations to the host. Saitama's template's strength and information do not match. Realism increased by 10%."
"Current realism reaches 50%!"
The system's ethereal prompt sounded in Kai's mind.
Kai's eyebrows twitched slightly, showing a bit of surprise.
Originally, he was a bit bothered by the identity of a Seven Warlord with a bounty of 50.
He never expected that in the system's eyes, it would actually increase his realism.
However, thinking of Saitama's ranking and presence in the Hero Association's assessment in the original story, it was also a mismatch between strength and information.
It seemed that for this reason, he had gained ten percent realism.
