New World, Moby Dick
The news of the alliance between Gojo and Sukuna spread like a shockwave across the seas, reaching Moby Dick. The imposing ship of Whitebeard cut through the waves, its flag proudly fluttering in the sea breeze.
Marco stood at the bow, his eyes half-closed scanning the horizon. His usually relaxed face betrayed a rare sense of worry.
"Gojo... The ashes of Mary Geoise are still warm, yoi. And now, he's recruiting this Sukuna..."
Whitebeard, seated on his massive throne, raised his sake cup to his lips. His characteristic laughter echoed across the deck.
"Gurarara! That kid's got guts. He reminds me of Roger in his early days..."
Vista twirled his mustache between his fingers. "Father, this alliance could shake up the balance of power."
"Balance? There has never been one. There are only men and their dreams."

Land of Wano, Onigashima
In the fortress of Onigashima, Kaido watched the raging sea from his perch. Sake flowed freely, but not even alcohol could calm his agitation.
"WORORORORO!" His fierce laughter made the walls tremble. "Finally, opponents worthy of the name!"
King, silent, observed his captain. Beneath his mask, his eyes gleamed with a predatory light. Queen frantically adjusted his glasses, his scientific mind already in turmoil.
"These two... They could be the key to a new era of chaos!"

Totto Land, Whole Cake Island
In her kingdom of sugar and nightmares, Big Mom sat on her throne of sweets. Her usually vacant eyes shone with an unusual gleam.
"Gojo..." Her melodic voice poorly concealed her covetousness. "His power... I want it in my collection!"
Katakuri, standing in the shadows, slightly furrowed his brow. "Mother, this man is unlike any other. His power defies all logic."
"Mamamama!" Her laughter resonated in the throne room. "That's precisely why I want it!"

New World, Red Force
The Red Force glided over the waves like a scarlet ghost. Shanks, leaning on the railing, gazed at the horizon with a smile.
"Ben, do you feel it?" he asked his second. "The air itself seems different."
Beckman exhaled a puff of smoke. "This alliance is going to shake the world to its core."
"Perfect." Shanks' smile widened. "It was about time someone stirred things up a bit."
The crew of the Red Hair continued their festivities, but their captain knew that soon, very soon, the oceans themselves would tremble before the power of this new alliance.
The celebration was in full swing on the Red Force, but in Shanks' eyes shone a light that had nothing to do with alcohol. The upcoming era promised to be explosive, and he intended to be one of the main players.
Shanks gathered his crew and laid out his plan. He wanted to sail to Gojo and Sukuna's base and confront them directly. The crew, excited about a new challenge, agreed without hesitation. The Red Force set sail for Gojo and Sukuna's base. The journey was long.
After several days of sailing, the Red Force reached Gojo and Sukuna's base. Shanks and his crew prepared for the imminent confrontation. They were aware of the power of their opponents, but they were confident in their abilities.
The battle between Shanks and his crew on one side and Gojo on the other was epic. Both teams fought fiercely, using all their strengths and techniques. They did not fight for victory or anything else, but just to gauge their strength.
The battle lasted for two days and two nights, after which they all rested as they were tired from the two days of fighting. When night fell, they celebrated, thus forming a certain friendship. The next day, they went their separate ways, continuing their adventures.
