New World's Sky Is About To Change

In today's world, the reach of the government is simply too powerful.

The scale of this incident is almost unbelievable.

All anyone can do now is wait patiently.

No one knows what will unfold next.

Meanwhile, at the World Government Headquarters…

The Five Elders had just received the news.

The old man with the sword glanced at the newspaper and couldn't help feeling shocked.

"That fool Kaido… cooperating with our World Government to sell weapons was already a great arrangement. And now he decides to rebel? What the hell was he thinking?"

His words struck a chord with the others. They had always believed Kaido was a shrewd operator.

They never expected him to do something so reckless.

To steal from the World Government was nothing short of suicide.

But it worked out in the end—he was killed by Kaos.

At the same time, the Five Elders couldn't help feeling a sense of awe. Kaos' strength had grown tremendously.

Both Kaido and Bullet were dangerous pirates.

Even the Five Elders had to treat them with caution.

Yet Kaos, with just his women and a few allies including Admiral Akainu, managed to kill Kaido without a single casualty.

It was nothing short of a complete victory.

The bearded elder with the curled mustache spoke up, "His Highness Kaos is remarkably capable. Under Eleanor's command, the Second World is progressing smoothly."

"At this point, should we speed things up?"

The 'Second World' was now under excellent control. All ministers in the imperial capital had been eliminated.

Today, the entire capital was nearly in their grasp.

"This is something His Highness Kaos is handling personally. He has his own plans. All we can do is clean up the aftermath."

The scar-faced elder spoke calmly.

The others nodded in agreement. His reasoning made sense.

"But who are the newly appointed Four Emperors?" the elder in white robes suddenly asked, frowning.

Normally, it was their job to determine who rose to the level of the Four Emperors—and to assign bounties.

Yet here was a newly crowned Four Emperors group mentioned in the newspaper, and they knew nothing about it. Clearly, this was Kaos' doing.

Still, they couldn't understand why he would suddenly form a new Four Emperors group. Who were these people?

They exchanged puzzled looks. No one had an answer.

They could ask Kaos, but they had no intention of questioning his decisions. After all, the World Government now ruled two worlds.

Every decision Kaos made had proven beneficial for them.

So, after a short discussion, the Five Elders decided not to press the matter.

Elsewhere, on the Grand Line…

Kaos was flying back to his cruise ship aboard Zagola. In midair, he had already been having a bit of fun with his women, soaring all the way from the war-torn island to the ship.

It had been an enjoyable journey.

Flying through the sky offered a special kind of freedom.

When Zagola descended to sea level and lightly flapped his wings, Kaos and the others leapt from his head and landed on the deck of the ship.

Zagola then soared skyward once again, disappearing into the endless blue. Off to enjoy his own solitary adventure.

As soon as Kaos landed, the queen and her daughter from the Mox Kingdom immediately came over and clung to him.

Today, they were clearly dressed to impress.

Perhaps because of Esdeath and the others, Kaos had shown them less attention recently.

So, after some discussion, the mother and daughter had decided on a new approach—dressing themselves up as beautifully as possible to create a visual feast.

"Your Highness Kaos!" they called out sweetly.

They had put great care into their appearance. Their new hairstyles in particular gave them a completely different charm.

Kaos was not someone who ignored his women.

Since they had gone to such effort, how could he not reward them?

The princess moved in close, wrapping her arms around Kaos' arm.

Her boldness was clearly modeled after Esdeath. After all, Esdeath often behaved brazenly with Kaos, and he never minded—in fact, he seemed to enjoy it. So the mother and daughter decided to follow her example from now on.

Kaos felt the softness of the princess beside him.

He gently lifted the queen's chin and studied the two of them. With the effort they'd put in, their beauty had certainly improved. While they still couldn't compare to Esdeath and the others…

They were quite pleasing to look at.

Smiling broadly, Kaos strolled toward the poolside, the queen on his right and the princess on his left.

Stussy and Esdeath had already been favored earlier, so they didn't pay much attention to what was happening now.

At that moment, Rika Minami stood quietly off to the side, focused on her Teigu, trying to understand the limits of her power.

But she intended to grow even stronger—to better support Kaos.

She no longer wanted to be just an ordinary woman. After experiencing battle, she realized how much she enjoyed fighting head-on.

Especially with her Teigu.

Once the rose bloomed, no one within three kilometers survived.

Everything became nourishment to strengthen her even more—and she loved that feeling.

Now, she was eager for another battle.

But she didn't know how to bring it up. After all, she was still Kaos' maid, and any personal freedom required his permission.

She also felt a little awkward about it. As one of Kaos' women, openly saying she wanted to go into battle felt... unladylike.

Stussy noticed Rika Minami standing silently, wearing a conflicted expression. She immediately understood—Rika was struggling with something deep inside.
