"We will have opportunities to clash with them again in the future. There's no need to be overly anxious."
Reno said, waving his hand, unconcerned by the matter. He was already satisfied with the results of this battle.
As this report spreads, major forces and the populace will gradually become aware of the Marines' tragic defeat. This will not only cause the Marines to lose face but will also shake the public's confidence in the Marines' authority. In Reno's view, this was the most detrimental effect this battle would have on the Marines.
"The Marines shouldn't take any action for a while."
Reno glanced through the newspaper and casually set it aside. Currently, the Marine mid-to-high-level personnel are heavily wounded or dead, and they are severely weakened. They will be unable to organize any large-scale retaliatory actions for a short time.
Moreover, the strength of the entire Reno Pirate Crew had been fully revealed. As long as they weren't idiots, they certainly wouldn't come looking for trouble with them in the short term.
"Boss, I'm telling you, this Luo Feng guy is too slow! At this rate, when are we going to reach Wano Country?!" Jess, eating fruit, constantly grumbled.
Since the morning, Luo Feng had been using the Island-Island Fruit ability to modify the entire island without destroying the existing town. On the surface, it looked completely different from the previous island. After the modifications were complete, he began controlling the entire island to move toward Wano Country. It was just that the speed of movement was a little... slow!
"If you have the ability, do it yourself. Don't complain about others here." Kurokage, unable to listen anymore, retorted directly. He wasn't helping, yet he was constantly chirping...
"Oh, Kurokage, who are you talking about? Haven't I taught you a lesson in a couple of days? Is your skin itching again?"
Bang!
The moment Jess finished speaking, Kurokage dissolved into a cloud of black mist and vanished from the spot. When he reappeared, the edge of his dagger was only a dozen centimeters from Jess's neck.
Boom!
Jess slightly curled his lip, and lightning flashed across his body. The dagger sliced through the lightning, and Jess's figure had already appeared ten meters away.
Kurokage said nothing, charging up again like a maggot on a rotten bone.
"These two guys are so boring. They fight at the drop of a hat. I don't know what the fun is!"
Flame Flower, used to the sight, peeled a grape and slowly fed it into Reno's mouth.
"Daily cultivation is so tedious. Let them fight."
Looking at the bickering couple, Reno was reminded of two people. Their daily routine seemed similar: they were either arguing or on the way to arguing.
Bang!
Just then, a loud noise erupted not far away, and the ground shook.
"Hajrudin, can you be a little quieter?"
Looking at the grape that had fallen to the ground, Flame Flower frowned slightly, placing her hands on her hips as she reprimanded.
Hajrudin, who had just finished his last set of three hundred repetitions while holding a mountain, was dripping with sweat and indicated that he absolutely did not want to speak.
"Hajrudin, that's enough cultivation for today."
Reno stood up, satisfied. To reach the goal of a trillion gold sooner, he had been personally supervising Hajrudin's daily cultivation for several consecutive days.

------------------------------------------------
"Boss..." Hajrudin's face was crumpled, on the verge of tears. He used to be able to sneak in some laziness during his cultivation, but now, he couldn't even steal a minute of rest. He was starting to regret getting the Memo Memo no Mi.
"Here they come, here they come!"
At this moment, Rupert and Long Bread wheeled over a huge dining cart filled with food and drinks. They were not combatants and couldn't be on the front lines, but their logistical support was impeccable.
"Rupert, prepare me a cup of rum, thanks!" Jess's voice abruptly cut through the air, amidst the sound of thunder.
"You bastard, who are you looking down on?!"
The provoked Kurokage roared, adding a few more degrees of force to his attack.
Seeing this scene, Reno smiled and shook his head. He looked up at the gradually darkening sky and wrapped his arm around Flame Flower's slender waist.
"You... what are you doing?!"
The sudden move startled Flame Flower, but she quickly reacted, her beautiful eyes sparkling.
"What else can I do? While Linlin is away, I should dote on you more. Once we reach Wano Country, I'll have to spread my attention evenly."
This frank statement immediately made Flame Flower blush. She subtly glanced at her crewmates, and seeing nothing unusual, she quickly grabbed Reno's hand and hurried toward the room.
...
East Blue, one of the Four Seas, known as the weakest sea.
Night fell. In an unnamed sea area, two forces were in a standoff. An atmosphere of intense hostility pervaded the surrounding waters.
On one side, over a dozen massive pirate ships were lined up, creating a grand spectacle. The pirates on the deck brandished their swords and looked bloodthirsty. At the bow of the central ship, two gigantic figures stood proudly. The sea wind howled, and their cloaks fluttered loudly behind them.
At this moment, both their gazes were fixed on the individual before them.
In front of them, a large island floated high in the sky, and one person stood on the edge of the island.
"Hahahahahaha... Shiki the Golden Lion, I know your ambition. Join my pirate crew! Follow me and conquer this world!!" "As long as we defeat the World Government, I can definitely give you what you want!!"
Rocks looked up at Shiki, who stood on the edge of the island, waving his large hand and extending an olive branch. Ever since he learned that Shiki was in the East Blue, he had brought his men here, spending over a month to finally locate Shiki.
"Jyahahahahaha... Rocks, you truly are persistent! You actually tracked me all the way here!" Shiki glanced at the ships below, grinning widely.
"Whitebeard, is this your choice?!" "I once thought you were unconquerable, just like me. I never expected even you to pledge allegiance to Rocks. How disappointing!!"
Shiki looked down at Whitebeard, who stood beside Rocks, and mercilessly mocked him.
Hearing this extremely abrasive voice, Whitebeard frowned, tightening his grip on his Murakumogiri.
"Hahahahahaha... Shiki, a wise man submits to circumstance! I hope you understand this principle!!" "My goal is to overthrow the entire World Government. Your ability is crucial to me. No matter where you run, I will find you." "Of course, you can hide high in the sky, but remember, as long as I'm alive, you will be forced to hide high in the sky for the rest of your life, do you understand?!!"
Rocks' words made Shiki narrow his eyes, and a flash of wild red light crossed his pupils.
Swish!
Shiki did not reply. He slowly drew out his swords, Sakura Ten and Kogarashi, from his waist. The sharp edges of the two Great Grade Swords emitted cold glints under the night sky.
"Rocks, today I will witness your strength!"
As the words fell, a powerful aura suddenly burst forth from Shiki's body.
Seeing this, the corner of Rocks' mouth lifted slightly, showing a hint of smugness. He wasn't afraid of Shiki making a move. As long as Shiki dared to attack, he was bound to lose!
"Shiki, go ahead and attack. Let me see your current strength."
"Arrogant!"
The enraged Shiki snorted coldly, waving his hands, and two cross-shaped slashes howled out. The sharp slashes, wrapped in golden light, ripped through the air and shot towards Rocks below.
Rocks extended his right hand at the bow of the ship, directly catching the two golden slashes. He clenched his hand, and with a crisp sound, the slashes shattered instantly.
"Heh heh heh heh... Shiki, is that all you've got?!"
"Are you overestimating yourself, or underestimating me?"
Shiki's face briefly changed, but he quickly masked it. Rocks blocking the attack was within his expectation; if he couldn't even block an attack of that level, he wouldn't be Rocks. However, the fact that he blocked his slashes so easily with just his raw physical strength did surprise him somewhat.
"Jyahahahaha... as expected of Rocks! How about this, then!!"
As his voice faded, the aura around Shiki intensified, and a golden-yellow light spread across his entire body. His whole figure shot up into the sky like a streaking light, adding a distinct color to the dark night.
"Lion's Threat – Valley Slash (Shishi: Senjindani)!!!"
As his roar echoed, Shiki's body began to spin in the void, gaining speed rapidly. Simultaneously, streams of golden crescent-shaped slashes broke through the air. In just a few breaths, dozens of arc-shaped sword slashes, wrapped in Armament Haki, shot towards Rocks below. Each slash contained immense power, capable of easily splitting a mountain and carving a ravine.
"Hahahahahaha... Not enough, Shiki!"
Rocks grinned, still shaking his head and laughing. This wasn't Shiki's strongest strength, nor was it what he wanted to see! He wanted to see Shiki use his Float-Float Fruit ability!!
"Shiki, show me your true abilities!!" "Whitebeard, block these attacks!"
As the words fell, Rocks vanished completely.
At the same time, Whitebeard made his move!
"So fast! Damn it!"
Shiki's pupils contracted slightly, and his internal Observation Haki frantically warned him. In a flash of lightning, the island under his control instantly moved to block the attack in front of him.
Boom!
Almost simultaneously, the entire island was shattered, turning into countless fragments of rock. Shiki used this opportunity to soar into the high sky. Rocks, having failed to land a hit, had to return to the deck, his expression extremely gloomy.
"Jyahahahaha... Rocks, I'm done playing with you!!"
"Shiki, you won't escape!"
"Whitebeard, contact John, Wang Zhi, and Silver Axe. Tell them to bring everyone and find Shiki, no matter the cost!"
... ...
Time flew by, and three months passed in a hurry.
New World, Caster Kingdom.
It took Luo Feng a full three months to control the island and reach the sea area where Wano Country was located. Reno was quite resigned to this. However, throughout the entire process, Jess's Armament Haki provided early warnings, avoiding many dangers, so the journey was relatively safe.
Upon reaching the waters of Wano Country, Reno brought his crew members ashore to Wano Country.
