Chapter 13 Linlin and Kaido
A New World, A World of Nations
"Mom, this is terrible!"
The current world is not as grand and vast as it will be 30 years later; both the islands and the so-called multi-ethnic concept are still under construction.
Charlotte Linlin was not as "huge" as she would be 30 years later.
Even now, she still holds the title of the most beautiful pirate on the sea, with a tall and sexy figure and a bold and fiery personality.
"Shut up, Perospero! I was just about to have some dessert!"
Charlotte Linlin put down the cake in her hand and looked at her eldest son, who was staggering towards her.
Charlotte Perospero, though only 20 years old, has already become the face of the Big Mom Pirates.
Unlike Katakuri, who is focused on fighting and protecting his own, Perospero's emotional intelligence allows him to thrive in the underworld.
"Kaido and Shiki are fighting again. Mom, didn't you say before that you would let me know as soon as you had any news about Kaido?"
"Kaido?"
Charlotte Linlin picked up the newspaper and frowned as she looked at the news.
"That Shiki guy is really stingy, going after Kaido again... Hmm?"
"Perospero, do something for me."
Seeing his mother's gaze shift to him, Perospero immediately stood up straight.
"Mom, please tell me!"
"I'm very curious about this man. The newspaper says he's from a special race and has a special bloodline. I'll go investigate him."
Special race?
Perospero's eyes unconsciously swept towards Bazell in the newspaper.
"I understand, Mom. I will find out the truth as soon as possible."
"Go."
After Perospero left, Charlotte Linlin's eyes lit up, and she suddenly took out a Den Den Mushi.

Kacha--
"I'm drinking, spit it out! Waaah, damn it, I lost again!"
Den Den Mushi: o(╥﹏╥)
"Kaido, you're still the same as before. When you're drunk, you like to whine and cry."
The Den Den Mushi's crying expression froze.
"You used to love to cling to me and act all cute when you were drunk..."
"Shut up, Lingling!!"
The Den Den Mushi's face suddenly turned bright red.
"Hanafza, Bazel, and Jin, you three drink first."
The sound of hurried movement and clattering came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.
"Lingling, are you calling at this time to try and form an alliance?"
Charlotte Linlin leaned back, her tone languid:
"I have no plans to go to sea right now. We can talk about alliances later. Speaking of Kaido..."
"That brat Shiki's causing you trouble again, hasn't he? Want me to teach him a lesson for you?"
The Den Den Mushi frowned: "What is it? Get to the point! I'm still having a banquet here!"
"Then I'll just say it directly."
Charlotte Linlin suddenly sat up straight, her eyes shining as she stared at the Den Den Mushi.
"You have two special races on your ship, right? Lend them to me, and I'll return them to you after they give birth to your son."
"...Are you kidding me, Lingling?"
The Den Den Mushi mimicked Kaido's angry expression on the other end.
"Jhin and Bazel are my brothers, how could I possibly do such a thing!"
Charlotte Linlin showed no surprise; she knew Kaido's personality better than anyone.
It's normal for Kaido to refuse.
"That's a real shame. I really like Jhin, that's his name, right?"
Before Kaido could answer, Charlotte Linlin continued talking to herself.
"That skin color and appearance, and that ability to control fire—there's only one race in this ocean with these characteristics."
"The former god..."
"Enough, Linlin!" All expression vanished from the Den Den Mushi's face. "Jin is Jin. I won't hand them over to anyone unless I'm dead."
"That's it, I still have to go drink."
Click!
The Den Den Mushi was hung up on, but Charlotte Linlin wasn't angry.
"The Lunaria race, and that unknown, mysterious bloodline, tsk tsk, they're really intriguing."
"Kaido..."
……
[Greenbit Island, north of the Kingdom of Dressrosa in the New World]
Unlike other islands in the New World, Greenbite is a primitive island far removed from human civilization.
Even though this small island is so close to the prosperous Dressrosa.
Hidden reefs by the sea, man-eating fighting fish.
Unless it's a matter of life and death, it's best to avoid Greenbite Island.
This is common sense that every resident of Dressrosa knows.
Those enormous vegetation plants, far exceeding their understanding, were not all harmless.
Some carnivorous plants and vampire vines even grow as tall as giants!
It was nighttime.
The dark, deep waves crashed onto the beach, leaving behind piles of broken wood before returning to the "tribe".
Occasionally, tattered pirate flags would appear, draped like boneless skin over the end of a rusty, abandoned cannon.
On the shore, outside the forest.
A huge bonfire, several meters high, crackled and popped, and the aroma of roasted seafood with a few seasonings wafted out.
Rustling sounds came from the nearby jungle, and the occasional flash of green eyes represented the greed and craving of wild beasts.
"Olga, make a few cuts on that grilled octopus over there and then sprinkle the seasoning on it."
"I know, Sister Shi~" Olga walked towards the target grilled food with her little sea lizard.
On the other side of the campfire, Bazel, Hanafza, and Jin huddled together, looking tense, their hands covering their playing cards.
"Hey, Abel, no cheating this time!"
Bazel glared at Jhin:
"I definitely won that last round! You bastard, how dare you say it doesn't count while Kaido was answering the Den Den Mushi!"
Jin replied calmly, "Of course, I have the strongest sense of contractual obligation."
"Then let's reveal the cards!"
Hanafza licked his lips, his expression one of intense excitement.
"I've got a full 19 points this round, you two bastards, you're going to have a drink!"
Abel revealed his hand: "Sorry, I have 20 points."
"Let's drink, you two. Tonight is destined to be another invincible moment for me."
Bazel silently revealed his cards, with the Ace of Spades and the King of Spades standing out prominently.
"I'm Blackjack, hahaha, let's drink, you two bastards!"
"Who was it that just shouted 'double the bet! This time you have to drink four glasses!'"
"cut."
Hanafza threw down his cards, and before he could say anything, Jhin suddenly fell down for no apparent reason, the flames burning behind him "just happened" to brush past the cards in Bazel's hand.
Bazel was stunned: ?
"Sorry, I lost my balance just now."
Jhin remained expressionless as he spoke these words.
"Hey, Jin."
Bazel, staring with dead fish eyes, slowly got up and rolled up his sleeves.
"Looks like I'll have to teach you a lesson before Kaido gets back."
"Are you kidding me, you bastard?"
Jin also stood up, squinting at the man:
"This was an accident, Bazel. As a man, you should be more magnanimous."
"Hmph hmph hmph..."
Bazel lowered his head and sneered, his body swelling several sizes, and deep purple scales quickly appeared.
"Poisonous body!"
"Die, you sore loser trash!!"
"Snake venom injection!!"
Seeing that Bazel had activated his poison form, Jhin dared not underestimate him and quickly extinguished the flames on his back, activating his own speed ability.
As a member of the Lunaria race, he is able to generate and skillfully use fire.
When flames are present, his defense is greatly enhanced, and he can use flames to attack.
When the flames disappear, your speed will increase significantly, but your defense will decrease.
Faced with the unpredictable speed of Bazel, Jhin dared not use his defensive mode.
It's important to know that snake venom can penetrate anywhere, especially the venom of the Yamata no Orochi!
Jhin had learned this the hard way during his previous voyages.
He originally thought that with his racial characteristics and Armament Haki, he could resist snake venom, so he had a real man's boxing match with Bazel in his poison mode.
The result is obvious...
After fighting for more than ten minutes, Jhin collapsed to the ground, his body itching unbearably, his muscles twitching wildly.
Forget about counterattacking, even running is a problem.
"Emperor Yan!"
After retreating a certain distance, flames appeared behind Jin, and countless fireballs flew out from them.
"Yamata no Kage: Poisonous Flame!!"
Fireballs and waves of flame collided, and the roar of the explosion echoed across the distant fields.
"Let's have a real man's fight, stop hiding like sissies!!"
"Stop with the nonsense, Bazel! If you're so tough, don't use snake venom!"
"Bullshit! I'm a snake, why can't I use venom? If you're so tough, don't use fire!"
