The ship on the sea was a standard pirate ship used by the executives of the 'Big Mom' pirate crew.
The person holding the binoculars was a tall, thin man with long white hair that covered his right eye. He wore a black cloak over a white robe and had a sword at his waist.
Charlotte Razan, Charlotte Linlin's thirty-third son.
Beside him stood a tall, obese man with a long nose, his black hair tied up in a bun with a hairpin, wearing a wool coat and a red and white striped scarf that covered half his face. He had armor on his arms, and his head was quite small compared to his obese body.
The man carried a large katana on his back.
Charlotte Snag, Charlotte Linlin's twenty-fifth son.
One of the original 'Four Generals', he was the 'Minister of Snacks' of 'Totland'.
“Brother Snag, now that you’ve captured Olga, Mom will definitely like you again. Maybe you can regain your position as one of the ‘Four Sweet Commanders’,” Rezan said, putting down his binoculars.
"That's impossible..."
Snag's face darkened upon hearing this. "Rezan, let me tell you, a 'General' is not allowed to lose so miserably. I lost. That bastard Urouge defeated me and made me lose face in front of my mother. No matter how much my mother likes me in the future, I can never become a 'General' again."
"However... whatever Mom wants, we must do."
Snag stared at the horizon. "A surprise attack on the naval base, we must do it!"
“It’s not that exaggerated, Brother Snag.”
Rezan said, "This place used to be the base of the Navy's Lucilfer Kuro, but he was transferred to Sabaody Archipelago on the Grand Line some time ago. His subordinate, Douglas Cass, is stationed here. I heard that he intervened in the war between the Vinsmoke family and four countries in the North Blue and stole three thousand clone soldiers from the Vinsmoke family. He is quite capable, but his own strength seems to be weak."
“Pegasus Island is heavily fortified, and we probably can’t just rush in. But once we land, if you, Brother Snag, are to take down Douglas Cass first, then we’ll have control of the island.”
“Hmm…” Snag nodded: “You’re the best at analysis, just do as you say.”
Rezan laughed: "Pegasus Island is the most prosperous island in the West Blue. If we plunder it, we can also gain a considerable fortune. But the only thing to consider is Lucilfer Kuro. Doing such a thing will make him resentful of us."
"We are pirates."
Snag scoffed, "Even if he doesn't resent us, we'll still arrest him if we encounter him. We don't need to worry about him; Mom is the strongest."
“Yes, Mom is the strongest!” Razan nodded in agreement.
The ship continued sailing forward, and soon the outline of Pegasus Island came into view.
...
On the island.
Olga is telling Cass about her experiences.
“I used to be a donut maker in a small town in the New World. Because I was a little famous, I was noticed by Big Mom. I was very excited. After all, she is one of the Four Emperors. Being invited by one of the Four Emperors to become her subordinate is a great honor, even in my hometown.”
"So I went to Totland..."
Olga's face contorted with fear. "But that woman... that horrible woman, Big Mom, she was absolutely terrifying. Just thinking about her makes me want to stay awake. She was a woman who could send shivers down your spine. She drained my soul and my life force, and there, every six months you had to surrender a month's worth of life—that hellhole..."
Olga gritted her teeth. "This is still mild. If it were just this, it wouldn't be unbearable. After all, I joined Big Mom's pirate crew, and sacrificing a little is acceptable. But... but that woman is too terrifying. When she's hungry, she'll kill even her own son. I'm afraid that one day I'll become like that, especially since she's been craving donuts lately..."
"Finally, I seized an opportunity to purchase goods and escape from the ship. But as long as I was on the Grand Line, whether it was 'Paradise' or the 'New World,' I felt unsafe. Every day, every day, every single day I was looking for the next location, trying to earn some money with my skills to prepare for the next journey. Pegasus Island was the same..."
Olga looked up at the sky. "I actually really like this place. It's peaceful, there's no darkness, and no pirates dare to come in. Your navy is also very good. If I could, I'd like to stay here for a long time. But staying this long this time is already my limit..."
“My life is in the hands of ‘Big Mom’. She can easily track my movements. No matter where I go, I won’t last long… Perhaps I should leave after a while. It’s not just because of the ‘Big Mom’ pirates. Totto Land’s intelligence capabilities are also world-class. They don’t even need to use pirates to capture me.”
After saying that, he sighed and said to Cass, "Is someone interested in my donuts? If I go to Sabaody, can you take me to the East Blue? That remote place, I might stay there a little longer."
After hearing this, Cass asked, "Is that all?"
"only?"
Olga was stunned and exclaimed, "That's one of the Four Emperors! Big Mom, the most powerful woman in the world!"
"Mere Four Emperors!!!"
Cass's loud shout startled Olga, who stared blankly at his serious expression.
The bearded man shouted, "We're the Navy! The Navy's role is to protect civilians from being bullied, no matter if they're pirates or whatever. In the face of justice, there's no turning back!"
"I am Kuro's subordinate, the subordinate of the one who will definitely become an admiral! Whether it's the Four Emperors or the Pirate King, as long as they get in Kuro's way, I, Kas, will not allow it!"
A wisp of white smoke swirled around Cass. "I am the man who swore to become Mr. Kuro's shield! If I can't even fulfill the wish of his favorite subordinate, Miss Lida, and instead compromise out of fear of the mere reputation of a pirate, what kind of shield am I? How can I have the face to face Mr. Kuro!"
"If Mr. Kuro were here, he wouldn't let the civilians panic and run away because they're afraid of pirates! After all, this is Pegasus Island, Mr. Kuro's base, my base, and the Marines' base!"
"With the Navy in the lead, pirates must retreat! With justice in the lead, evil will not exist!!"
"Stay here! Master Olga, please trust us, the Navy. We... will definitely not let the pirates harm you!"
The white mist enveloped Cass's body, making him appear extremely holy, like a god descended from the heavens.
Olga was momentarily stunned...
