If Sengoku doesn't pull back his net soon, I'll become the Pirate King!

Chapter 54 Takamagahara: Prequel

【Golden City Chandra】

A giant azure dragon plummeted from the sky, crashing down on several golden houses.

"Hey, Kaido!!"

"Are you brainless? What if we get hurt?!"

The only people who dare to speak to Kaido like that, besides King, are Bazel.

"What? You weren't injured?"

Kaido, now in human form, pushed away the gold that was pressing down on him.

"Come complain to me when you're injured."

"You rascal..."

Bazel released his hands, and the eyes of Toki and Enel had turned into the shape of coins.

Amatsuki Toki (shocked.jpg): "So many..."

Enel (dumb.jpg): "Gold?"

"I never expected that a historical inscription stone tablet would actually exist in a place like this."

Kaido didn't look at the gold scattered all around him; instead, he stared intently at the giant golden bell at the end of the golden city, his expression growing increasingly fanatical.

It was still the year 1492 of the Ocean Calendar. The stone tablet carved below the Golden Bell was not sent into the higher sky by the expanding island clouds, as it would have been thirty years later.

Kaido walked up to the Poneglyph stele and reached out to touch the strange characters on it.

"It's a pity. If only the Beasts Pirates had someone who could read ancient script."

"That guy Rocks kept saying that these historical texts pointed to the way to the throne."

"And the pirate who reaches that place becomes the king of all pirates."

Kaido's eyes were unfocused, yet tinged with a hint of resentment.

One Piece...

That's legendary, one of the dreams of every man who roams the sea.

Bazel walked up to Kaido and stopped, looking at the Poneglyph with a complicated expression.

He couldn't understand what was written on it either, but he knew that this historical inscription stone was not the red road sign historical inscription.

The red road sign has four sections of historical text.

Fishman Island, Zou on Zunesha's back, Wano Country...

As for the last piece, it was in the hands of Big Mom before the transmigration, and Bazel was unsure whether that red stone tablet had already appeared in Tales of Hollows.

Or perhaps Big Mom found that historical text later.

Bazel searched through his memories.

He remembered that Fishman Island actually had two Poneglyphs: one was Joy Boy's letter of apology, and the other was a road sign Poneglyph.

However, after obtaining the translated copy, the Roger Pirates chose to hide the stone tablet.

As for the reason... Bazel didn't know either. Perhaps it was to prepare for the next generation of Joy Boy?

but,

Even if you collect all four pieces, it won't help, not to mention whether Robin has even been born yet.

He couldn't possibly make a special trip to the Western Sea just for this ancient script.

He's an undercover agent, a professional one.

As for whether there are other scholars in Ohara who are well-versed in ancient texts...

Barzel was unsure as well.

However, he was clear about one thing.

That would be if the Beasts Pirates started researching the Poneglyphs right now and also assembled an archaeologist who could read the text.

There's a 100% chance that Im will come knocking on our door with the Five Elders and the Knights of God.

Then, by flipping the Othello board, the entire Beasts Pirates were transformed into the product of a demon.

"Kaido-san, what do you plan to do with this stone tablet?"

Kaido hesitated for a moment: "Leave it here for now; now is not the best time to move it."

After hearing Kaido's words, Bazel frowned slightly.

In his plan, the best thing to do on this trip to Wano Country was to move this sacred site along with the land.

At that time, we'll shelve this piece along with the piece from Wano Country.

He simply couldn't believe that the Roger Pirates, missing a Poneglyph, could still reach their final destination.

If the other party can still become the Pirate King after this, then Bazel has nothing to say.

That's simply the inevitable trend of the times; it's no wonder the other party became the Pirate King.

"What if someone else sees us?"

Kaido dismissed it: "This isn't a Road Poneglyph; at most, it records what happened in the past."

There's no need to care.

"On the contrary, it's the gold here~"

He shifted his gaze from the historical inscription stone tablet and squinted as he scanned the golden city.

"If we tidy it up, it might become one of the Beasts Pirates' future residences."

"Bazaar, you've got a lot of brains, hurry up and help me think of a cool name!"

Bazel sighed inwardly. Kaido rarely made real decisions, and once he did, no one could dissuade him.

Moreover, he had to admit that Kaido was right.

It's not the Great Pirate Era yet, and the World Government and the Navy have plenty of free time.

If the historical inscription were moved at this time, it might be discovered by those elusive agents.

Rather than risk moving them to a new world, it's better to just dump them anywhere on the Sky Island.

Just like Kaido said.

Anyway, it's not the main text of the road sign history.

As for Aquaman's location, Bazel, being a time traveler, knew it all too well.

But there are still 14 years until Shirahoshi's birth, so there's absolutely no need to rush.

On the contrary, we need to find a way to remove the two stone tablets from Fishman Island and Zou.

And it has to be done silently...

Silently?

and many more.

Barzel stroked his chin, deep in thought.

Seeing his companion's expression, Kaido didn't disturb them. Instead, he stepped back a few paces and gestured for Amagi and Enel to be quiet.

The bear who ate the Paw-Paw Fruit seems to have come from his hometown...

If it were the power of the Paw-Paw Fruit, it might actually be able to quietly knock away the two Poneglyphs!

As for the hiding place, Bazel has already figured it out.

It was decided to be located in Wano Country, but not the Wano Country of today, but the old Wano Country where the ancient weapon Pluton was hidden!

Now there's only one issue to consider: finding a reasonable opportunity to return to the South China Sea.

I'll go back and visit my mom, get her a solid gold ring, and maybe even steal away some gentle bear while I'm at it.

But that's precisely the hardest thing.

Now that his fame has soared, he can't find a suitable opportunity or excuse.

Not to mention that his mother lives in the South China Sea, and he doesn't want to lure the enemy there.

Then he lived a tragic life like Zephyr.

"Is it that difficult to think of a name?" Kaido asked, puzzled.

name?

What's your name?

Bazel suddenly remembered that Kaido had asked him for help before he started thinking.

A name came out without thinking.

"Takamagahara, if our territory is in the sky in the future, we'll call it Takamagahara."

"Takamagahara?"

Kaido initially didn't think much of it, but the more he thought about it, the more satisfied he became.

"An island floating in the clouds at sea, the legendary abode of gods—perfect! This is the name I've decided on!"

"I'm taking this place!"

After leaving those words, Kaido turned and left.

"We're leaving, Bazel. Once things stabilize in Wano Country, I'll personally move this place to the skies above Wano!"

"As for the gold here, let's just leave it sealed here for now."

Roar! !

A giant dragon soared into the sky.

"Bazaar, keep an eye on your woman and your underlings. I'm going to use my powers to bury this place."

"Tornado!"

In an instant, Bazel transformed into a gigantic eight-headed serpent.

Compared to its size when it first obtained the fruit, the Yamata no Orochi is now over 100 meters tall, making it a veritable miniature giant.

"Hold on tight, you two! Kaido's going berserk!"

The snake sped forward, carrying the two of them at high speed.

The rumbling sound carried far.

As Bazel led the two away from the Golden City, they happened to see a group of figures speeding along the Cloud Road in the distance, rapidly approaching them.

"How dare you! You've dared to enter this sacred ground without permission!!"

"Seize them and imprison or exile them!"

"etc."

"Yes, Lord Gan Fall!"

The members of the God's Guard ceased their actions at the command of the god.

Gan Fall first looked at the giant dragon that was stirring up a tornado in the distance, and then looked at Bazel who was gradually turning into human form.

"It's you again, Bazel! What exactly is your Beasts Pirates planning to do?!"

"If you want to start a full-scale war, I am absolutely not afraid!"

"All-out war? Don't overestimate yourself."

Bazel took two steps forward, deliberately exposing himself to the attack range of the God's Guard.

"Having personally experienced my power, you should know that I alone can completely eliminate you."

"And Gan Fall, didn't you secretly witness my fight with Bundy Wald from afar?"

"You think you can escape the search of Observation Haki by hiding far away? Don't be delusional."

"The reason you stopped your guards is because you know one thing."

"Once we make a move, your Sky Island will be plunged into an abyss of eternal damnation!"
