"Volhahaha! Took your damn sweet time coming back, you bastard!" Rocks laughed, looking up.
"Yo, Kaido, that form suits you perfectly. Don't waste the fruit."
"Wororororo! Of course. But damn, who beat you up this badly?" Kaido looked at Ron flying in his 30-meter giant form.
But he could clearly sense Ron's decreased vitality and weakened aura.
"Tsk, got hit by one stupid Devil Fruit ability. It's a pain in the ass to deal with," Ron shrugged.
As he sat on Kaido's head—
"Oi, where do you think you are sitting?" Kaido narrowed his eyes at him.
"Come on, man. I helped you so much on the crew, and now you're abandoning me when I'm weak? How heartless of you, Kaido." Ron looked at him with a hurt expression.
"Tsk, stop saying bullshit." Kaido snorted as he flew over Rocks.
Just then, Newgate appeared.
"Gurararara! Knew it, you wouldn't go down that easily."
"Bhahaha! Ron, you bastard, finally decided to show your damn face? Come and fight me!" Garp also arrived behind Newgate.
Everyone's eyes turned toward Saturn and Imu.
"As expected of you, Ron. You survived it," Imu's pleased voice came out.
Four pentagram magic circles formed as St. Nesturo, Peater, Mars, and Jupiter arrived there.
"Tsk, what? Gonna gang up on me again?" Ron looked speechless.
"Mu never sent anyone to gang up on you," Imu replied and looked at Ron.
"Ron, come to the Holy Land. Become my strongest knight. Mu shall grant you immortality and everything."
"Umm… can I not? I really just want to run around having fun with beautiful women," Ron said seriously.
Rocks, Garp, Newgate, and Kaido all shot him speechless looks.
"You serious?" Newgate stepped away, creating some distance, as if saying he didn't know this man.
"Tsk, what's the problem? I like beautiful women, so what? It's all better than ruling the world and all that bullshit. Like, why would I even need that? What's the point?" Ron asked, looking speechless.
He really didn't understand why everyone wanted to rule the world. Why couldn't they just have fun, live life to the fullest, and die?
Why go through all the trouble of taking over the world? To him, it was pointless.
Rocks wanted to beat this bastard up. All he knew was women and more women.
"You lecherous bastard."
Imu's eyes narrowed.
"Ron, become my knight. Mu shall grant you all the wo—"
"Shut up!" Ron shouted, looking at Imu.
Everyone blinked. Even Imu was caught off guard. Ron pointed at him angrily.
"Tsk, with my strength, you think taking women is difficult for me? I don't have that kind of fetish. I like women who have a true bond with me. Not just any beautiful woman. They are not some items to be collected."
Black lines formed on everyone's foreheads.
"Is this really the time to be talking about this?" Garp asked irritably.
Imu had enough. Black tentacles shot toward Ron and Rocks. Both swung their swords, cutting them apart.
"Mamamamama! You guys really know how to find trouble," Linlin said as she looked at Imu, Saturn, and the other Gorosei.
"Ronnnn! You bastard, why are you alive?" Roger shouted at Ron angrily.
Ron looked at him. "Oh, it's you? What was your name again?"
"Yo-you—!" Roger was practically burning in anger.
"How dare you pirates act like this in front of the lord?" St. Peter shouted as he transformed into a giant earthworm, diving underground and emerging near Roger's location.
"Whoooa, a giant earthworm. But I don't like one," Roger said as Ace was unsheathed. Conqueror's Haki infused around it.
"DIVINE DEPARTURE!"
Roger's sword attack sliced through the earthworm's stomach as he jumped out from it.
Mars shot into the sky, attacking Kaido in his dragon form.
"Well, Kaido, I'll leave the bird to you," Ron said from Kaido's head.
"Get off my head! How am I supposed to fight him like this?" Kaido shouted in annoyance.
"Hey! I'm an injured person. You expect me to fight like this?" Ron asked, sounding pitiful.
Kaido dodged Mars' attack and shouted at Ron, "Why should I care?"
"Well, how about I take care of your daughter in return?" Ron asked, leaving everyone speechless.
"What the fuck?" Rocks and the others stared at Ron in disbelief.
"Ahem… continue. Just ignore what I said." Ron waved it off and leaned near Kaido.
"I'm serious. Don't worry, I'll make sure she doesn't become a filial daughter."
Kaido glared at him. If he really had a daughter and this bastard took care of her, he was absolutely sure she would be swinging her kanabo at him in no time.
But he had no time to chat with Ron as Mars attacked him again.
Down below, Linlin fought Peater as he appeared from underground attacking her.
"Prometheus!"
She swung her flame homie downward as he spat out a huge amount of flames. She gripped Napoleon, cutting the massive sandworm apart.
"Tsk, this absurd regeneration…"
Linlin cursed while looking at the regenerating Peater.
Newgate faced Warcury. Garp and Roger looked around, not knowing what to do. Rocks attacked Imu, ignoring everyone else.
Just then, Nesturo attacked Roger.
"Garp, leave now. It's an order. Make sure all pirates are captured," Nesturo ordered him.
"Th—"
"Is the Navy rebelling?" Nesturo asked in a cold tone.
Garp gritted his teeth and walked toward the other pirates causing chaos.
Ron looked at Garp and sighed.
Just then, Kaido launched a "Bolo Breath!"
A pillar of flaming dragon breath shot toward Mars.
Mars, in return, opened his beak and breathed out flames. Both flaming breaths collided.
Below, Rocks swung his sword as the possessed Saturn blocked it with his spider leg.
