Boom boom boom!
On the high seas, ships faced each other, exchanging cannon fire. The standard-issue warships were shrouded in a layer of white mist, and the shells they fired were fast and large, creating explosive dust clouds that were larger than anything else, quickly shattering the combined fleets on the other side.
Then, the warships quickly approached the half-sunken ship and captured the survivors.
"No?! Isn't that woman here?!"
Jin flapped his wings and flew from one shipwreck to another. This fleet of about ten pirate ships did not find the person he was looking for.
"Hahaha... What are you looking for? You won't find it. Seeing how furious you are makes me very happy. You wouldn't believe it!"
The pirate he captured had a resolute expression, as if he were bravely facing death. "For the sake of our ideal world, we are willing to sacrifice ourselves! Come on! You vile pirate who sold your soul to the World Government! I will not yield to any power!"
Jhin stared at the doll-like figure in his hand, ready to crush it to death, but just then, Cass's voice approached from afar, "Stop, Abel."
Jin paused, turning his head to look. The warship carrying Kass was approaching. The bearded man, holding a Den Den Mushi, said to him, "Vice Admiral Kuro sent word that the people from the so-called Utopia actually went to Wano Country when we came to find them. But Mr. Kuro has returned, and your kin have been captured by him."
Is that so?
Jin looked at the person in his hand and said coldly, "Then isn't this person even more useless?"
"No..."
Cass shook his head. "They're not pirates. They just follow a different path from us. They're not evil; their intentions are good. Now that the ringleader has been caught, the rest of them will naturally lack the support of their so-called 'ideal world.' Let them go."
Jin snorted coldly, then stared at the person in his hand for a moment, "Boy, what's your name?"
The man, with his neck stiff, replied, "Jinwei!"
Snap!
Jin tossed the person in his arms onto the deck, ignoring him, and flew back to Cass's warship, asking, "So, are we going back?"
"without you."
Wilbur, who was standing nearby, said, "Abel, you can't go back."
Jin was taken aback: "What do you mean?"
“Let’s talk about it back in the office,” Wilbur said.
The three of them returned together to the fortress in the center of the warship and entered Cass's office.
Cass sat at the desk, while Wilbur and Jhin sat opposite each other on the sofa, with a coffee table between them.
Wilbur was brewing tea, and after pouring hot water over it, he pushed the steaming teacup toward Ember.
Jin removed his mask, revealing his handsome, brown-skinned face, and took a sip of tea.
"Can I tell you now? Why can't I go back?"
"certainly..."
Wilbur nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, "Something happened in Wano Country. Kuro sent a message, subtly reminding us that we've gone too far. CP0 has discovered our actions. We have to thank your clansman for this. If she hadn't been captured in Wano Country, CP0 wouldn't have surfaced so early. We were complacent and thought they had already left. They deliberately exposed themselves to complete the mission given to them. Kuro, through Kuro, subtly warned us."
Jin frowned: "You mean... in order to avoid arousing suspicion from the World Government, we need to separate?"
“That’s right, Abel. You’re very smart. No wonder you were once the chief steward of the Beasts Pirates.”
Wilbur said, "This is something I'm sorry to trouble you with. Cass and I don't have jurisdiction over Wano Country. Once things stabilize here, we will definitely have to return to Dressrosa. Originally, I thought you could protect Mr. Kuro with us and Kuro, but the situation doesn't allow it now. This is not just a matter of CP anymore. We also have to consider the World Government's reaction."
"Having been with us for the past few days, you probably know that Mr. Kuro has been hiding something; he's not ready yet. There must be a reason for that, because both the theory and the practice were guided by Mr. Kuro himself. He's subtly reminding us, so..."
He looked up at King and said earnestly, "Why don't you become a pirate again? Lead the remaining Beast Pirates to appear on the high seas, sink the CP ship carrying those people, and openly create an opposition to Wano Country. That way, the World Government won't suspect us."
Jhin lowered his head in silence. Just as Wilbur was about to offer further advice, he looked up and smiled, "You think I'd be upset about something like this?"
Wilbur was taken aback. He picked up the mask on the table, looked at it again, and said, "During my time in Wano Country, I rarely took off this mask, even when Kaido was in person. Why is it that when I came into contact with you, I took off the mask without any hesitation?"
He stood up, as if preparing something, took a deep breath, and slowly said, "Because of your justice, I have put aside this grudge. Mr. Kuro, please allow me to address you this way. His ideals, whether they are pirates, marines, or anything else, are all things that can be pursued. I have never heard of pirates being unable to pursue justice. Justice will not discriminate based on different identities. The only thing that can be discriminated against is a person's actions."
He gripped the mask tightly, slowly putting it on his face, his voice echoing from within, "Whatever justice commands, I will do, because that justice can truly change the world! I'll become a pirate!"
"Mr. Abel!"
Kass jumped to his feet, excitedly saying, "I never imagined you'd grasped it so deeply! I'm ashamed that I was arguing with Wilbur about whether or not to let you return to Wano Country!"
"That's certainly true..."
Wilbur lowered his head, ashamed, and said, "Cass disagreed before, and I wanted to persuade you to continue being a pirate. It seems I was wrong. I'm sorry."
"There's no need for that. It's just that we haven't known each other for very long, but I'm certain..."
Jin picked up the longsword leaning against him and said in a deep voice, "This is the closest I've ever seen to a successful path to changing the world. I'll give my life for it, and I'll make it happen!"
Wilbur smiled at him and said, "Well then, let's talk about what to do next. We need to have a step-by-step plan."
The two CP0 members in Wano Country must die at sea.
However, they cannot get involved in this matter; they cannot leave even the slightest trace.
The only ones they can rely on are the pirates in the New World who can no longer contain themselves and have already begun their own battles.
Among them, he was one of the three calamities of the original Beasts Pirates, making him the best medium.
He possesses sufficient strength and prestige on the high seas. Once he and the Beast Pirates become pirates, they will provide Wano Country with an additional natural barrier, serving as the best shield to separate the World Government from Wano Country, which they control.
