"Excellent! Now, let the newlyweds proceed to the bridal chamber! Enjoy the taste of your enemy's daughter, Kaido-san," Jin patted Kaido's elbow… the height difference made patting his shoulder awkward.
Kaido frowned. Honestly, the fact that the woman before him was actually a man was hard to accept. But to be fair, the feminized Momonosuke was quite good-looking.
And the thought that he was the child of his nemesis, Oden... was strangely exciting.
"Then... I'll leave this to you?" Kaido was starting to get eager.
"O-f***ing-K," Jin gave Kaido a reassuring gesture.
'Sigh, I'm such a good person. Coming to Onigashima, I've not only set up Blackbeard with Ivankov but also Kaido with Momonosuke. Where else would you find such a great ally?'
"Alright! You brats keep fighting! I'll be right back!" Kaido grabbed Momoko and headed for the third floor.
"Stop right there!" Oden, having learned the whole story from his 'eldest daughter', could no longer contain his rage. He drew his sword and charged at Kaido.
Yamato, wearing her Oni mask, also charged forward, wielding a spiked club similar to her father's, though noticeably smaller, "Don't you lay a hand on Momonosuke-sama, you bastard old man!"
Facing the Number One Idiot of the One Piece World and the Number One Filial Piety Exemplar, Jin and Kaido simultaneously drew their weapons.
"Thunderclap Eight Trigrams!"
"Susanoo Slash!"
Oden and Yamato were sent flying together. The Kaido who was wounded by Oden twenty years ago was merely in his growth phase.
Against his fully matured form, Oden was already at a disadvantage.
Moreover, the strength of an Impure World Reincarnation depends largely on the quality of the 'sacrifice'.
In the original Fourth Great Ninja War, using White Zetsu's clones with Hashirama's cells as sacrifices allowed most to reach their living strength.
But peak Kage-level fighters like the Third Raikage and Tobirama were limited to high Kage-level.
Super Kage-level fighters like Madara and Hashirama couldn't display their peak strength either.
Oden's sacrifice was the weakling Shinobu. The strength he could currently exert was only around Warlord-level, so how could he be a match for Kaido?
"You unfilial daughter, how can you interrupt your father and stepmother's wedding night?" Jin squatted in front of the sprawled Yamato, pulled off her mask, and spoke with feigned gravity.
"N-nonsense! I am the man who will become Oden! Momonosuke is my son! How could I let my son become a stepmother?!" Yamato struggled to get up, shouting angrily.
Thwack!
Jin couldn't help but give her another knock on the head.
'Just as expected, this girl had no redeeming qualities besides her face.' Jin took out his Den Den Mushi and called Pudding, who was still vacationing in the Flower Capital, asking her to come and format this Oden fanatic's memories.
'Damn, if I keep talking to her, I might not be able to resist cutting her down.'
A vicious smile spread across Kaido's face as he glared down at Oden.
Then, grabbing Momoko, he headed upstairs.
"G-get back here! Kaido!" The Impure World Reincarnation's body couldn't be taken down so easily.
Oden's arm, shattered by Kaido's attack, was repaired by dust in seconds. He tried to get up and give chase.
"Don't be a buzzkill," Orochimaru threw a kunai with a talisman attached, embedding it into Oden's brain.
Instantly, Oden, who had been about to chase Kaido, turned 180 degrees, charged down from the second floor, and swung his sword at Kikunojo, who was locked in combat with Sasaki.
"Gyaaaah-!" Kikunojo let out a piercing scream, instantly receiving the same one-armed treatment as Shanks.
The sudden turn of events stunned not only the tens of thousands in the banquet hall, but also former Roger Pirates like Shanks watching the live stream via the Visual Den Den Mushi, 'Wh-what's going on!?'
"O-Oden-sama! What are you doing!?" Kin'emon and the others were equally horrified.
The response was Oden's swords swinging towards them.
If he were only at Warlord-level, stronger Red Scabbards like Ashura Doji and Kin'emon could handle him.
But because the man before them was their master, they could only raise their swords in simple defense.
Sparks flew as blades clashed.
Oden roared with a tearful voice, "I-I don't know either! My body won't obey me!"
Marco, with his rich combat experience, analyzed in a low voice, "The reanimated dead obey that person's commands?"
Just then, a dark tidal wave rose over ten meters high before Marco.
"Zehahaha! You have time to look around, Marco?!" Blackbeard laughed.
Marco's expression tightened. The Yami Yami no Mi's Ability was the absolute bane of close-combat Devil Fruit users. And most of their Whitebeard Pirates were exactly that type! Their previous defeat was largely due to this reason.
"Fire Fist!" A giant pillar of fire over ten meters in diameter descended from the sky, helping the Whitebeard Pirates block the dark tidal wave.
[Flame Emperor] Sabo!
Jozu and the others breathed a sigh of relief, casting grateful looks at Sabo.
If they hadn't allied with the Straw Hat Grand Fleet and the Kozuki Family, no matter how much they wanted to kill Blackbeard, they wouldn't dare act so rashly.
"Ah-!" At that moment, a cry of pain came from the third floor. No need to guess what was happening.
"Hahahaha!" Jin couldn't hold back anymore and laughed heartily.
'Turned into a woman and violated by your enemy. Tsk tsk, this kind of doujin plot actually exists.'
Slam!
At Shakky's Rip-off Bar on Sabaody, Rayleigh slammed his glass heavily on the table.
"Don't go," Shakky's expression didn't change much, her face indifferent as she warned Rayleigh.
Anyone could see now that Jin was here for fun.
If anyone dared to spoil his mood, he wouldn't hesitate to annihilate the Straw Hat Grand Alliance.
Hadn't they seen how Marco stopped Luffy from attacking Jin? Only by doing so did they stand a sliver of a chance.
Hearing this, Rayleigh could only forcibly suppress his anger.
He understood the logic, but... but... Sigh!
...
"Momonosuke-!!" Oden's eyes were bloodshot as he roared furiously. But his body couldn't break free from control.
He continued swinging his sword at the Red Scabbards while roaring, creating a somewhat comical scene.
"Bastard! Bastard! Bastard! How dare they do that to Momo!!!" Luffy stretched his arms out, grabbing the windowsill of the third floor, preparing to charge straight up.
"Ace's brother! Don't act recklessly!" Marco shouted, his face changing dramatically.
Anyone could see now that Jin was deliberately tormenting Momonosuke. But thinking calmly, this might not be a bad thing for the Grand Alliance.
Currently, Kaido was busy being Oden's son-in-law, and Jin showed no intention of joining the fray yet.
Of the Two Emperors and One Overlord, they only needed to worry about Blackbeard for now. This was the perfect opportunity to focus fire on Blackbeard and tip the balance of power.
Marco and the others even hoped Momonosuke could hold on longer, buying them time to take down Blackbeard.
If Luffy interrupted Kaido's... activities, and Kaido joined the battle now, the situation would become even more unfavorable!
"Don't you understand the saying 'Better to destroy a temple than break up a marriage'? Your emotional intelligence is too low," Jin sneered.
"Room!" A semi-transparent light blue sphere instantly enveloped half the venue.
Luffy, who had just jumped to the third-floor window, vanished, replaced by Ulti of the Flying Six.
"Wha-!?" Ulti, finding herself suddenly in mid-air, was startled and lost her balance, about to fall.
Jin reached out and grabbed her by the scruff of the neck like a rabbit.
"Don't act recklessly, Straw Hat-ya!" From the right rear of the venue, Law shouted at Luffy, "Right now, we should let that kid distract Kaido! We need to use this chance to take out more of their forces!"
'It seemed there were others with brains besides Marco.'
"Heheh~ Jin-kun, my target has appeared~" Orochimaru licked his lips excitedly. His primary goal in joining this war was Law's Ope Ope no Mi. It was perfect for a mad scientist like him.
"Be careful now, don't get counter-killed." Jin offered a rare, kind reminder.
After all, during the Onigashima battle, the plot armor Law and Kid received wasn't much less than Luffy's Nika Evolution.
They led Big Mom around like a dog. And Law, who was so stamina-deficient in Dressrosa he was practically the One Piece Version of Kakashi, suddenly became like Naruto on Onigashima, spamming ultimate moves like they were free.
Weren't his techniques supposed to be stamina-intensive?
If this battle followed the original script, and the cheat trio performed again, it was hard to say if the Beast-Blackbeard alliance could secure victory.
"Heheh~ I'm always very careful," Orochimaru smirked sinisterly and clasped his hands together.
[Ninja Art: Impure World Reincarnation!]
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Dozens of coffins erupted from the already ravaged battlefield.
"Damn it, Orochimaru! You should have done this sooner!" Blackbeard, blood dripping from his forehead, couldn't help but curse.
Even with two top-tier Devil Fruits, he couldn't withstand being focused by so many people!
Not even Newgate at Marineford had received this kind of treatment. Moreover, Blackbeard's proficiency with the Gura Gura no Mi wasn't as high as the aged Newgate's.
"What is he doing!?" Coffins naturally evoked discomfort.
Seeing Orochimaru summon so many at once filled viewers worldwide with a strong sense of foreboding.
[Ding! Group member, Portgas D. Ace, will be removed from this group in 10, 9, 8 seconds...]
[Ding! Group member, Edward Newgate, will be removed from this group in 10, 9, 8 seconds...]
Hearing the group notifications, Ace and Newgate panicked.
Being resurrected was good, but they didn't want to be resurrected as that bastard Blackbeard's pawns! And to fight their former comrades/sons!
[Ace: @Jin, Jin! Do something! I'll give you anything you want!]
[Whitebeard: @Jin, You brat! Make that androgynous freak stop right now, or I'll fight you!]
On the verge of resurrection, the father and son desperately @'ed Jin.
Jin rubbed his chin. The key point was, there wasn't much he could get from you two.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The coffin lids opened automatically, revealing their contents to the entire world.
Instantly, not just ordinary civilians, but Marines, Emperor crews, and even the Five Elders were stunned speechless.
"Ace..." Luffy and Sabo stared fixedly at one of the coffins.
"Pops..." The Whitebeard Pirates remnants stared intently at the tallest coffin.
"Dragon..." The Revolutionary Army's Commanders widened their eyes at the man with the sandal-shaped facial tattoo.
Watching the live stream, Garp looked on in shock at Koby's body.
The Five Elders also saw [Ryokugyu] Aramaki, who had been killed by Jin, among the row of coffins!
"Heheh~ The show is about to begin," Orochimaru sneered, changing his hand seals.
The corpses walked out of the coffins with uncoordinated movements and slowly opened their eyes.
Reanimated Koby: "Ah, Arere? Where is this?"
Reanimated Dragon: "That's... Blackbeard? Sabo? L-Luffy?"
Reanimated Aramaki: "Uchiha Jin! You villain! I will eliminate you in the name of justice!"
Reanimated Ace: "Jin, you profit-obsessed bastard!"
Reanimated Newgate: "Teach!!!"
Reanimated Lucci: "Where is this? I remember I should have..."
Demons and monsters dance wildly! The living and the dead reunited.
"He... he can summon the dead!?" The Five Elders trembled with excitement.
"Can we recruit this Orochimaru!?" Although the Seraphim were complete, who would mind having more talent?
The situation on the seas was growing increasingly unstable. The World Government's control had greatly diminished.
Coupled with CP0 losing over 80% of its members to Jin, they were in desperate need of talent now.
...
"Ace? It really is Ace!?"
"Is it really you, Ace!?" Luffy and Sabo couldn't hold back anymore, tears welling in their eyes as they called out to Ace.
Ace, who had been about to continue cursing Jin, immediately shifted his attention to his brothers.
Unfortunately, his soil-constructed body couldn't shed tears, but he sniffled a non-existent runny nose, his expression a mix of wanting to cry and laugh.
"Luffy, Sabo! I've finally seen you again."
On the other side, many Whitebeard Pirates couldn't help but run towards Newgate.
"Pops! Pops! Waaah—!"
"Pops! We missed you so much!"
"Wah! Pops, come back! We can't do without you!"
Seeing this sentimental scene, a look of deep disdain flashed across Blackbeard's face.
He shouted, "Hey! Orochimaru, hurry up and make the old man kill Marco and the others!"
Upon hearing this, the faces of all the Whitebeard Pirates changed dramatically. They had almost forgotten that the actions of the reanimated dead were controlled by that man called Orochimaru.
Orochimaru curled his lip. Although he disliked Blackbeard's tone of giving him orders, he still needed Blackbeard's help to transfer the Ope Ope no Mi.
Orochimaru took out another talisman-tagged kunai, the same kind used to control Oden, and threw it into the back of the Reanimated Newgate's head.
"Androgynous bastard! Using this method to insult Pops!" Jozu roared angrily.
However, the Reanimated Newgate had already raised his thick right arm high. His fist, the size of a sandbag, condensed a faint white energy sphere.
It's here! The power of the strongest Paramecia, the Gura Gura no Mi!
The Fourth Great Pirate War has begun!
