Man in Pirates: Robin is my cousin? Chapter 043

“So, Yamato, do you understand now? Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. We can learn from the good in others, but there’s no need to become someone else entirely.”

Ranpo rubbed Yamato’s head, patiently teaching the child.

“Hmm… I understand. Big Brother, do you have weaknesses too?” Yamato looked up at the older brother who had given her a rice ball.

“Uh…”

“Of course, I have weaknesses.”

He was a double-crosser and a pervert. Aside from being handsome and strong, wasn’t he full of weaknesses?

“Kaido!!”

Just then, the chaotic battle ended with Moria’s roar.

The Thriller Bark Pirates were utterly defeated!

Almost completely wiped out, Moria’s fighting spirit was shattered by Kaido, along with his Haki.

He fled like a beaten dog.

“How pathetic. No wonder Moria has been hiding in the Grand Line researching zombies. He was beaten so badly he got scared.”

Gecko Moria, ridiculed by netizens in his previous life as the weakest Warlord, actually wasn’t weak in terms of strength.

It was just that his fighting spirit was gone, he lost his ambition, and his strength declined severely.

He was practically like Crocodile’s brother.

After Gecko Moria fled, Kaido’s gaze swept towards Ranpo.

He had noticed Ranpo’s presence earlier, but because of Moria, he hadn’t focused on him.

“Oh no! Kaido found you! Run!”

Yamato’s expression changed drastically. She stood up and blocked Ranpo, refusing to let anyone else be killed by Kaido because of her!

She unslung the small spiked club from her back, gripped it in her hands, and gritted her teeth.

Kaido walked towards them step by step, his massive spiked club dragging on the ground, creating sparks.

The other members of the Beast Pirates also noticed Kaido’s movements.

“Governor?”

Turning their gaze to Kaido’s front, they saw Yamato. “It’s the Young Master.”

“Is the Governor going to teach the Young Master a lesson again?”

“The Young Master is so pitiful. Why doesn’t he listen to the Governor?”

“No, look, is there someone behind the Young Master?”

Hearing this, King the Conflagration looked at Ranpo, his brow furrowed, and he mumbled, “World Government?”

He noticed the white suit Ranpo had recently put on, which was the World Government’s signature attire.

Since he was representing the highest command of the World Government for negotiations, Ranpo naturally had to look the part.

He slowly stood up, pulling Yamato behind him. “Let me handle this. Didn’t I say I came to negotiate with Kaido?”

Looking at Kaido, a smile appeared on his face. “Kaido, let me say this first: I’m here to talk about cooperation. You won’t hold a grudge, will you?”

Kaido stood before him, his hulking figure incredibly oppressive, his blue dragon tattoo looking ferocious.

With a dark expression, he said nothing, simply raising his spiked club.

“Zzzzt!”

“Thunder Bagua!!”

Black and red lightning covered the spiked club as it swung down fiercely towards Ranpo’s head!

Seeing this, Ranpo used his right hand to shield Yamato in his embrace, while his left hand, with fingers pressed together, formed a palm, and a trace of black lightning burst forth.

Clang!!!

He raised his single hand, blocking Kaido’s explosive strike, his body not moving an inch.

“Hey, hey, aren’t you afraid of hurting your daughter?”

In his embrace, Yamato carefully raised her head, watching Big Brother block Kaido’s attack with one hand, and her eyes instantly sparkled.

Su… Sugoi!

She had never seen anyone block Kaido’s attack in her life.

“Hmph!”

Kaido snorted two streams of hot air from his nose, not at all worried about harming Yamato.

“If you want to talk cooperation, defeat me! Or…”

He paused for a moment, then pointed at Ranpo, continuing, “You join us!”

He rarely acknowledged anyone, but this kid in front of him was clearly much stronger than before. This potential was terrifying!

The Beast Pirates were strong, but he had never found anyone who could keep up with him, which was why he placed his hopes on Yamato.

But Yamato was a rebel, which made him angry and helpless.

So, he really wanted to bring Ranpo into his crew.

“Sigh, if that’s the case, then let’s fight.”

Ranpo was helpless. Joining the Beast Pirates was impossible.

He had already reached this position; why would he become a pirate? That would be pure madness.

But fighting someone like Kaido was exhausting.

He definitely had to ask Old Man Kirin for a raise when he got back.

“Yamato, go hide far away. Don’t get hurt.”

“Mm-hmm!”

After Yamato left, Ranpo began stretching his muscles. “Aren’t you going to tell your subordinates to back off? I won’t be responsible if they get killed.”

Kaido: “…”

Though a bit annoyed, Kaido still waved his hand, telling his subordinates to retreat.

This kid’s strength was clearly not at the same level as before; he took a direct hit from him without being sent flying.

After everyone retreated, Kaido swung his spiked club and smashed it at Ranpo, not caring if he was stretching or not.

“Ambushing again!?”

Without another word, he threw a punch and started fighting.

It was a purely violent fighting style, fists clashing with the spiked club, unleashing terrifying aftershocks that shattered the surrounding terrain.

The members of the Beast Pirates were bewildered!

“What’s going on?! Who is that guy? He can actually fight the Governor blow for blow!”

“He’s from the World Government. The Governor seems to know him.”

Some observant individuals also speculated about Ranpo’s identity.

“He seems like a pretty handsome guy. I really want him to be my servant!”

“Can you handle such a powerful servant? I’m the one who should get him.”

These guys spoke without restraint, playfully teasing each other.

On the other side, Yamato, hiding behind a rock, clenched her hands tightly, staring intently at the battlefield, silently cheering for Ranpo in her heart: “Big Brother, you must defeat Kaido!”

Besides them, the situation here was also being watched by a group of people.

“Holy cow! Lord Beliard and Kaido are fighting!”

“What?! Quick, call headquarters!”

The CP 0 agents stationed in Wano Country to receive Ranpo immediately tensed up. Didn’t they say it was a negotiation?

Why were they fighting?!

This situation was not good. Kaido was a Yonko, and engaging a Yonko in battle required permission from the higher-ups!

However… Lord Beliard seemed to be a higher-up, didn’t he?

Never mind, just make the call!

Pulling out a Den Den Mushi, he forwarded the situation on Onigashima to headquarters, who then immediately transferred the call to the Red Line, informing the Five Elders.

The Five Elders were the highest authority, and they needed to know about battles with a Yonko.

“What? Who is fighting a Yonko crew?! Why haven’t I received any news!”

Red Line, Pangaea Castle.

In a five-person office, an old man looked serious, shouting loudly.

A moment later, he hung up the phone and looked at the others. “Who is Beliard? Does anyone here know?”

Hearing this, the old man holding a long sword spoke, “He seems to be someone who just joined the God’s Knights two years ago.”

“God’s Knights? Why are they fighting Kaido? Also, didn’t I send the World Government to negotiate with Kaido? Why are the God’s Knights interfering?”

“It seems like the negotiations dragged on for too long, so the God’s Knights intervened.”

“…”

“Have someone constantly monitor the situation on Onigashima. I’m going to see Saint Figarland Garling.”
