sea calendar 1499.
In a certain sea area of the New World, a massive Pirate Ship was aimlessly sailing.
A tall, robust figure, exuding confidence from head to toe, stood at the bow.
He had a pair of small horns on his head, making him look like a devil, and pointed, vampire-like ears. A scar, resembling a stitched-up wound, ran from his forehead to his neck. Coupled with his gaping maw, he appeared exceptionally terrifying and frightening.
"Moriah-sama, where do we go next?"
Hundreds of small pirates on the ship looked at the figure at the bow with fervent admiration.
"Hee hee hee hee!"
"I heard that the great Pirate, Beasts Kaido, is in Wano Country! We're going to Wano Country next! Let Kaido become a stepping stone on my path to becoming the Pirate King!"
Moriah was filled with confident, arrogant, and domineering aura.
He had the capital to be arrogant now!
The current Moriah was not the rotten state of the one 20 years later, who only knew how to collect shadows and create zombies!
He was now one of the top powerhouses on the Grand Line. Both his Haki and swordsmanship had reached a formidable level, and those who could defeat him on the Grand Line were few and far between.
"Wo!"
"Captain Moriah is invincible!"
"Captain Moriah is destined to become the Pirate King!"
"Kaido definitely won't be Captain Moriah's opponent either!"
Moriah's hundreds of subordinates all flattered him with fanaticism.
Moriah's strength was indeed very strong, but his group of subordinates was, to say the least, hard to describe.
From the first half of the Grand Line to the New World, they had a smooth journey. Most of the battles they encountered along the way were resolved by Moriah's formidable strength.
To be honest, his subordinates played a very minor role. The entire Moria Pirates relied solely on Moriah. Without Moriah, the entire Moria Pirates would probably struggle to even navigate the first half of the Grand Line, let alone the New World, where powerhouses were abundant.
What Moriah was doing now was like a Challenger-ranked player carrying a bunch of Gold-ranked players in a ranked match!
Perhaps Moriah felt that his strength was sufficient to handle all battles, and these subordinates only needed to play a supporting role.
"Hee hee hee hee hee"
"Set off for Wano Country! Kaido, wait for me to take your head!"
...Wano Country, Onigashima.
"Brother Kaido, a Pirate Ship has appeared in the outer seas of Wano Country, seemingly heading towards Wano Country."
King respectfully reported to Kaido, who was seated in a high position nearby.
King's appearance now was already close to that of Inferno Calamity King, the leader of The Three Disasters, 20 years later.
He wore a black leather suit, adorned with numerous dense iron spikes. He also wore a mask, completely covering his handsome face, revealing only a pair of cold eyes. A pair of pitch-black wings on his back showed that he was not of an ordinary race.
"Wurorororo..."
"The Great Pirate Era, sparked by Roger, is truly lively! Even my impenetrable Wano Country is coveted by pirates!"
"King, how strong are they?"
Although Kaido was displeased by someone challenging him, he still needed to know the enemy's intelligence.
"Brother Kaido, it's the recently renowned Moonlight Moria Pirates."
King recounted all the information he knew to Kaido one by one.
"Moriah? He's not a weak fellow."
"King, notify everyone, prepare for battle. I'll personally go meet him!"
Kaido had heard of Moriah and considered him a formidable opponent. He planned to personally go meet him to see if he was as strong as the rumors claimed!
Perhaps he could have a good time!
"Oh, and bring that brat Carl along. It's time to see the results of his training these past years!"
The Moria Pirates was a Pirate Ship supported entirely by Moriah alone. Besides Moriah, there were almost no strong individuals on the ship.
There wasn't even a single great pirate with a bounty over 100 million. This was indeed a very good test subject for Carl.
King nodded slightly and went to notify of the impending great battle!
Carl had also felt like he was hitting a bottleneck these past two days. Growing by just training behind closed doors was truly limited. The most important thing was life-and-death combat!
Just as Carl was still in a pile of lolis, pondering how to break through the bottleneck and enter the next stage,
Suddenly, a deep, magnetic shout from the sky pulled him back to reality.
"Carl! Come with me!"
Carl immediately saw a huge, dark red dragon circling in the sky.
"King? Why is he looking for me?"
Yamato and Hiyori, the two little lolis, looked at the giant dragon in the sky with shining eyes.
They also wanted to fly, especially Yamato. Her bastard father and Carl could both fly, and she also wanted a Devil Fruit that could fly.
Maria, however, didn't have such thoughts. She could accept any Devil Fruit that could enhance her strength.
"I'll be right back."
Carl bid farewell to the two little lolis and one big loli, then transformed into Bingyi and left with King.
Flying side by side with King, Carl asked, "King, why did you look for me?"
"A group of pirates from Wano Country. Brother Kaido is personally leading the team. Also, to test the results of your training these past years."
King briefly explained the situation.
"Oh? There are still pirates who dare to stir up trouble in Wano Country!"
Carl understood. There were still pirates who dared to covet this easily defensible and difficult-to-attack Wano Country?
Wait, sea calendar 1499?
Could it be that slacker King Moriah?
At this time, it was indeed the time for Moriah to fight Kaido.
This was a talented individual with decent strength and a good Devil Fruit ability!
It would be too regrettable to let him go. It would be better to keep him to work.
The current Moriah had at least the combat power of a First Mate, otherwise he wouldn't have fought Kaido for so long.
If his mentality hadn't been shattered by Kaido, he would probably be an Admiral-level powerhouse.
Kaido now definitely had Admiral-level combat power, still a bit short of Emperor-level combat power, but not too far off.
King led Carl flying all the way until they landed in a snow-covered area.
Although this was also part of Wano Country, entering here felt like entering a New World.
Everything here was enveloped in white snow. The ground, trees, and houses were all covered with a thick layer of snow, and snowflakes were still falling from the sky.
This was the Ringo region of Wano Country, a world perpetually covered in ice and snow.
As soon as Carl entered, he felt the temperature drop. If an ordinary person were here without warm clothes, they would not be able to walk in this cold region at all.
Carl was thinly dressed, and although the cold wind brought a slight chill, he didn't feel cold. He only found the cold wind very comfortable.
It was like entering an air-conditioned room on a hot summer day, making one feel comfortable.
"Let's go! Don't keep Brother Kaido waiting!"
Before long, Carl followed King to a plain. Kaido and many subordinates were already assembled and ready for battle, and Queen, that big fatty, was also
