"Eh!? Whole Cake Island! Are you talking about Big Mom's territory, boss?"
When Miguel heard Renji's words, he didn't show any fear. Instead, he became even more excited.
"Exactly."
Renji looked at Miguel, whose strength was just a tiny bit away from breaking through to the next level. It was time to "invite" a good teacher to guide him. Otherwise, if the arena competition really started, Miguel's current strength would still not be enough.
"Then boss, when do we set off?!" Miguel asked enthusiastically.
Renji snapped his fingers and placed his hand on Miguel's shoulder. "Now."
Then, the two figures instantly disappeared.
Totto Land, Whole Cake Island.
"Mama's wrath has finally subsided. But who knows how long it will take to finish the giant cake she asked us to make this time?"
"Damn it, it's all the Fishmen on Fish-Man Island's fault for causing such a huge mess."
"Speaking of which, that Marine was too arrogant, daring to speak to Mama, a Four Emperors, like that. He really doesn't know what's good for him."
"Hey, keep it down. If that person hears us, our fate will be terrible. That's an Admiral."
"Heh heh, I don't believe it. Even if he's an Admiral, would he dare come to Mama's territory?"
"You're right…"
On the dock, a few guards were discussing when they suddenly heard an unfamiliar voice beside them.
"Were you just talking about me?"
A magnetic voice echoed in their ears, and the Big Mom Pirates' guard blurted out without thinking, "How could we be talking about you? Are you that Renji or something?"
"Exactly. Renji was just intimidated by Mama not long ago. How could he appear on Whole Cake Island now?"
"Is that so?" Renji looked at the several people with a smile.
Miguel, who was beside him, said, "Boss, should I take care of these guys?"
"Huh? Take care of us? Who do you think you are…"
The next words caught in his throat. The pirate guard stared in disbelief at the two figures who had appeared before him. Perhaps he didn't recognize Renji's face, but that uniform was irreconcilable with them Pirates.
"Marine?!"
"Two Marine soldiers actually stepped onto this island alone? Do you know whose territory this is?"
In this Pirate nation filled with a sweet aroma, the two figures draped in coats of justice seemed so out of place.
Ignoring the Pirates' questions,
Renji said, stepping forward, "No, let's get straight to the point."
Boom!
A red ripple spread out from Renji's feet. Under the invisible oppressive aura, the several pirate guards were instantly frozen in place.
"Where is Katakuri?" Renji slowly spoke.
If Renji hadn't intentionally controlled the terrifying Haki's might, several pirates would have long since been knocked unconscious.
Looking at Renji's blue eyes, one pirate recognized his identity and trembled with fear.
"You... You're that Admiral!"
"Don't kill us!"
"I know where Katakuri is! I'll take you! Don't kill me!"
After knowing Renji's identity, the several pirates who were previously arrogant had no intention of resisting, even though they were in the territory of a Four Emperors.
Renji ignored them. His Lv. 7 Heavenly Six Eyes' powerful perception swept across Whole Cake Island like a tidal wave. Then he frowned.
"Not here?"
He had swept across most of Whole Cake Island but hadn't detected Linlin's aura. However, immediately after, a powerful Haki reaction was captured by him.
"Found you."
At the same time, Katakuri, who had finally arranged the follow-up work to appease Linlin and was enjoying donuts in a secret room paused and his pupils constricted.
His Observation Haki, which had been trained to the level of foreseeing the future, told him that something extremely ominous was coming his way.
"What's going on? This ominous feeling!"
Katakuri stood up, not having time to finish the remaining donuts. Just as he covered his shark-like mouth with the fur of his jacket, he suddenly looked up at the ceiling.
The next second.
Crack! Bang!
After a loud bang, a hole was smashed in the ceiling, and two figures appeared inside the room.
"Yo, nice to meet you for the first time. Please guide me."
"!!!"
Katakuri's pupils suddenly contracted sharply after sensing the newcomers.
The powerful aura emanating from the newcomers, just standing there, already made him feel an unprecedented pressure.
This aura...
Even Mama, a Four Emperors, couldn't bring him such heavy pressure.
"Azure eyes, this face… You are the current Admiral, Renji."
Katakuri's expression was extremely grim, his muscles were taut, and his whole body was wrapped in Haki. He instantly entered a state of maximum alert. At the same time, he quietly manipulated his Mochi-Mochi Fruit ability, wanting to dial the Den Den Mushi hidden in his body.
However, such an extremely secret movement was seen through by Renji at a glance.
"I advise you not to do that, otherwise, I can guarantee that your younger brothers and sisters will die miserably."
Renji smiled lightly, but it gave Katakuri a devil-like feeling.
More importantly, judging from the aura he felt from the other party, Katakuri was very sure that the other party indeed had this ability.
"You want to kill me? Let Brulee and the others go."
Katakuri had no choice but to abandon the idea of dialing the Den Den Mushi. Facing Renji, a renowned Admiral, he had no confidence at all that he could defeat him.
Just now, he had already used Observation Haki's Future Sight to simulate dozens of attack methods, but his outcome, without exception, was extremely tragic.
Mama is not on the island right now. Only by following the other party's wishes can he buy time.
"Very good, it's good to talk to someone who can see the future."
Renji was very satisfied with this. Judging from the surging Observation Haki from Katakuri just now, the other party already knew the consequences of acting against him.
Drip!
Sweat dripped from Katakuri's body. Since becoming the undefeated Katakuri, he had never felt such nervousness.
This was the guy who defeated King, the second-in-command of the Beasts Pirates, with a single move during the Marineford War.
"I agree." Katakuri said.
"Don't disappoint me, Miguel." Renji said, then his figure disappeared from the room.
Only Miguel and Katakuri were left, one on one.
On the rooftop, Renji surveyed Whole Cake Island,
"So, what should I do next?"
