Pirate: Role-Playing System

Chapter 143: Four Emperors? Ignoring this king, dare to call yourself an emperor?!

Kaido, defeated?!

This doubt has been lingering in the hearts of the pirates who fought on the coastline.

The most crucial thing is that after the sword marks extended here and exploded, they never heard a single sound coming from there again!

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

That's our Beasts Pirates' admiral, Four Emperors Kaido!

Soon, Enma Jingu personally took action, transforming into a toothless winged dragon, wanting to fly over and find out what happened.

Of course, Sakazuki wouldn't let Enma Jingu pass so easily. Although it seems that Zaraki Kenpachi has the advantage, what if both sides are heavily injured?

If Enma Jingu is allowed to pass, won't Zaraki Kenpachi be doomed?

Risking his life, he entangled Enma Jingu.

Enma Jingu couldn't break free, so he ordered the pirates to fight desperately.

The pirates did go crazy in their attacks, especially the other calamity, Jack the Drought.

If it weren't for Wano Country's favorable geographical advantage and the efforts of numerous samurai like Kawamatsu, they would probably have been broken through.

Regardless of Kawamatsu or Sakazuki, they were both at a disadvantage against the two calamities...

The power of the Zoan Devil Fruit displayed on them was truly formidable, showcasing the strength of the ancient dinosaur species.

If it weren't for the assistance of others, they would have definitely lost!

However, as time passed, especially with the phenomenon of no second sound coming from the battlefield, the morale of Kaido's pirate crew plummeted significantly.

Lord Kaido... Could he really have been defeated?

Otherwise, why hasn't any other sound been heard? Why can't we see Kaido's enormous dragon body?

Worries grew more severe, and the atmosphere became increasingly heavy.

Fortunately, Wano Country couldn't spare any manpower to go over there—they were already at a disadvantage, and under the enemy's fierce attacks, they couldn't afford to divert any forces.

They could only spare a few ordinary soldiers, but what use would those soldiers be if they went over?

Even if Kaido let them attack, could they inflict any wounds?

It's better not to go!

The experts couldn't be spared, and the ordinary soldiers being sent over would be useless.

And the pirates couldn't break free for the time being, so they remained deadlocked.

Until a while later...

A man of incredibly tall stature walked to the shore!

"Kaido?!" Sakazuki widened his eyes.

"Admiral!" Jack the Drought smiled.

Kaido stood there, truly living up to his title as the strongest creature on land, sea, and air. The wounds on his body had already formed scabs, although they would rupture and blood would seep out with every step he took.

But his appearance greatly boosted the morale of the pirates!

The soldiers of Wano Country, however, had their morale drastically lowered!

"Kenpachi? Kenpachi!" Kozuki Hiyori muttered in a daze.

"So, he lost after all..." Sakazuki sighed. To be able to fight against a Four Emperors to this extent, he could be proud of himself.

AR...

"Retreat, everyone," Kaido calmly spoke, taking big strides towards a ship.

No soldier dared to stop him, and even the fighting had stopped at this moment.

"Boss?"

"Admiral?"

The Beasts Pirates were puzzled, not understanding what was happening.

"I lost," Kaido calmly said.

I lost?

I lost?

Lost...

In an instant, it felt as if time had been suspended.

Everyone stood there dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.

They could only watch silently as Kaido slowly boarded the ship.

"Set sail, retreat."

The voice was not loud, and it didn't match Kaido's usual rough voice.

Everyone suddenly realized that this man had indeed suffered a serious injury, and he might have even come close to death.

A....

"What about Zaraki Kenpachi?" Kozuki Hiyori was taken aback.

If Zaraki Kenpachi had won, shouldn't he have rushed to the battlefield?

Suddenly, a thought crossed her mind.

"No, could he be lost?"

In the outside world at this moment...

Wano Country was too closed off, and combined with Kaido's swift actions, the news of people heading to Wano Country was only just starting to spread.

Similar to the World Government and other Four Emperors, hardly anyone believed that Kaido would lose.

The Four Emperors losing?

Are you kidding?

At most, there would be some pirate alliances in the New World opposing the Four Emperors, taking advantage of Kaido's departure to Wano Country to plunder his territory and eliminate some of his subordinates.

What else?

There would be nothing.

Everyone treated this matter as a casual pre-dinner conversation.

In the New World, Dressrosa...

With Gilgamesh taking control of Dressrosa, significant changes had gradually taken place here.

Doflamingo had shifted the location of the black market trades here, and the newly appointed head of the black market, Kalifa, had impressive methods and had quickly brought substantial tax revenue to Dressrosa through trade.

Under Gilgamesh's orders, Dressrosa had begun large-scale infrastructure projects.

Bridges, roads, ports...

Construction was taking place everywhere.

Gilgamesh's subordinates, such as Shiryu, had become idle again.

There was no choice. Although there were occasional troublemaking pirates, these insignificant pirates were not enough for Shiryu and the others to vent their frustrations.

But they couldn't fight among themselves, right?

As a result, Ryokugyu, who had decided to surrender, received the contempt of the others—why not hold on a little longer and let us have a fight before surrendering?

They could only pass the time by drinking and having fun every day, which was quite boring.

"Hmm? The Four Emperors are making a move again." Shiryu held a newspaper and looked at today's news.

The others heard and gathered around.

Although Doflamingo had intelligence sources, he still had quite a bit of information about the Four Emperors.

Moreover, he wasn't that sincere towards the others, so naturally, he wouldn't tell them all the information.

So it was only now that they learned about this from the news.

"Wano Country, that place is quite remote."

"That old man Kaido is in trouble... what a waste."

"When are we going to go and give him a good beating? It's so boring lying around here every day!"

They grinned and laughed heartily.

Suddenly—

A hand as beautiful as jade took the newspaper from above their heads.

Everyone was stunned, seeing the young figure in casual clothes.

Gilgamesh?

"The Four Emperors?" Gilgamesh looked at the newspaper, his eyebrows furrowing, his voice filled with anger.

"Ignore this king, and dare to call yourself that?!"
