Conflicts like these weren't rare in the New World. Clashes happened daily. It was just that clashes involving the Four Emperors were rarer, and having three major pirate crews fighting at the same time? Practically unheard of. Before Roger became the Pirate King, Whitebeard had led his crew in battles all across the world, things were way more intense back then. At Hachinosu, Queen was now facing off against both Thatch and Rakuyo. The Whitebeard Pirates had sixteen division commanders, but only about five were considered true powerhouses. Currently, four of them are in play: Marco, Jozu, Thatch, and Vista. These four had combat power comparable to the Sweet Commanders or the All-Stars of the other Emperor crews. Thatch himself was incredibly strong; he might be a chef by trade, but he was also a skilled swordsman. "You think just the three of you can hold this place? Get lost!" Queen shouted. Going 1v2, Queen transformed into a brachiosaurus. Spinning his massive body, he struck Thatch and Rakuyo with his head and tail, sending them flying. "Hmph!" Queen paused and smirked, looking down at the two. "Unless Marco himself shows up, the three of you aren't enough to stop us." BOOM! BOOM! Suddenly, two blazes of fire, one yellow, one red, erupted from the rubble and shot into the sky. Queen froze for a moment. Before he could react, the two flames dove down from above. "Phoenix... Stamp!" BOOM! Queen's massive body was kicked skyward. Just before he lost consciousness, he caught a glimpse— Two phoenixes. "Wha...?" "Phoenixes! That's Marco!!" Jack shouted in disbelief. "No, wait! Marco's flames are blue! These are yellow and red! What's going on?!" Jack stared, stunned. "What are you looking at? Diamond Impact!" Jozu charged in leapt into the air, turned into a diamond, and smashed his body straight into Jack's head, sending him flying. "Jack-sama!!" "Two phoenixes... but it's not Marco?" The lower-ranking Beast Pirates stared up in shock at the yellow and red-flamed phoenixes. Whoosh! The flames dissipated, revealing Thatch and Rakuyo. "It's Fourth Division Commander Thatch and Seventh Division Commander Rakuyo! How did they turn into phoenixes, too?!" "You...!" Queen got back up, clutching his head, staring in disbelief at the two flying above him. "How the hell did you two get the Phoenix power? Only Marco should have that ability!!" "Who said there could only be one?" Thatch grinned. "No, this can't be, this must be fake... Black Flame Laser!" Panicked, Queen raised his hand toward Rakuyo, firing two laser beams that pierced both men clean through. The only thing left in the air was a flicker of flame. Whoosh! But the flames burst back to life, and both men regenerated in mid-air. "Not bad," Thatch smirked. "You really have the phoenix ability?! You a cloned Devil Fruits?!" Queen yelled. Swish! The sound of chains whipping through the air, Rakuyo flew down from the sky, wielding his flail, and smashed it right into the Queen's face, sending him sprawling. What followed was an all-out beatdown. Now possessing phoenix powers, Thatch and Rakuyo, alongside the indestructible Jozu, trio-tag-teamed Queen and Jack, beating the two senseless and driving them off Hachinosu. "Damn it! Where the hell did the Whitebeard Pirates get that tech?! There's only one person in the world who can clone Devil Fruits!" Queen suddenly remembered an old colleague. Only Vegapunk could do this. They had arrived with overwhelming force, only to flee in disgrace with a single ship. The Whitebeard Pirates had taken complete control of Hachinosu. Elsewhere, Vista led Haruta and Gill into battle against Smoothie and Cracker. When Haruta and Speed Jiru transformed into phoenixes, too, the Big Mom Pirates were utterly stunned. Under their joint assault, Cracker was swiftly defeated, and although Smoothie fought Vista to a near stalemate, she was eventually forced to retreat. News of the Whitebeard Pirates possessing four phoenixes spread across the New World like wildfire. At first, no one believed it until they saw the photos. "Four phoenixes? No, five now?!" "The whole Whitebeard crew is turning into phoenixes!" "They're going toe-to-toe with two Emperor crews at once... Are the Whitebeard Pirates truly invincible now?!" The New World buzzed with disbelief. At Whole Cake Island, Charlotte Linlin listened to reports from Smoothie and Cracker, plus intel gathered by Perospero. "The Whitebeard Pirates have mastered Devil Fruit cloning? They replicated Marco's Phoenix Fruit and now have four more phoenixes?!" Linlin said in utter shock. "It looks that way. There's no other explanation for the four new users. And at this rate, they might have even more soon," Perospero replied, still shaken. He had been terrified when the news reached him, and even now, he struggled to process it. Just imagine a sky swarming with phoenixes. That level of power? Terrifying. Who in the world could stand against them? A pirate crew with flight and near-unkillable. The combat potential was unreal. Charlotte Linlin stared at the photo with her one remaining eye, was deeply rattled. She had fought Marco before, and he wasn't a threat to her. But to everyone else? They were undefeatable. And now the Whitebeard Pirates had many like him. An unkillable legion of phoenixes... The very idea made her blood boil. How the hell were they supposed to fight that? It was impossible! "Mom! Bad news! The Whitebeard Pirates are attacking our territory!" Mont-d'Or rushed in, panicked. "That damned Roy! He dares attack us?! Send Katakuri! I don't care if they're phoenixes, kill them all!" Big Mom roared. ... Meanwhile, Kaido, having heard the news, suddenly stood up. His dream? To build an unstoppable army and wage the greatest war the world had ever seen. He had already received word that the Navy's scientist, Caesar Clown, could produce artificial Devil Fruits. He had even invested heavily in the project through Doflamingo's connections. Yet now, the Whitebeard Pirates had beaten him to it, and not just with any ordinary fruit, but a Mythical Zoan: the Phoenix! "Kaido-sama..." Jack said, bruised and bloodied. "I'm going myself. I need to find that guy." Kaido growled. "Find who?" asked Loxus. "Find your damn father." With that, Kaido's body shifted, transforming into his azure dragon form, and flew off from Onigashima. "Why's Kaido-sama so on edge?" Queen asked. "You idiot!" King snapped. "If Roy can replicate the phoenix fruit... what if he can replicate Kaido-sama's dragon form?!" "W-What?! Don't tell me...!!" ..... If you enjoy the story, my p@treon is 30 chapters ahead. [email protected]/DaoistJinzu
