After settling matters on the island, Vladimir pondered how to proceed.
Wiping out pirate crews one by one would be troublesome. It would be best to find a way to get the pirates to gather together so he could wipe them all out at once.
However, that wasn't urgent. First, he had to get rid of the Four Emperors of the Alliance that overthrew the Yonko – or rather, the three Emperors that remained.
Now that Vladimir's main body, the Phantom God, had emerged, the name of the Vladimir Emperor would surely become famous. He couldn't let others tarnish the title of Emperor.
With that in mind, Vladimir left Ghost Island and headed for the New World.
Riding on his dragon, Vladimir retracted his Lich King transformation, then summoned the Knight King and had her dial a number.
A moment later, the call connected.
"Hello?"
"It's me."
"Knight King!"
Unico was slightly surprised on the other end of the phone. "What can I do for you?"
"Tell me, where is the Alliance now?"
Unico was silent for a moment. "On Flame Island. A few days ago, the Alliance encountered the Flying Pirates. The White Emperor and the others fought back, but were defeated and slightly injured. They're now on Flame Island, preparing to join forces with the Flame Pirates and absorb their captain into the Alliance."
"The Flame Pirates?"
Vladimir knew a little about them. He had seen the pirate crew in the information the Navy had given him.
The captain was a great pirate in the New World, based on Flame Island, with a bounty of 910 million.
After the Big Mom Pirates were destroyed, this person immediately took action, swallowing a large area of the sea and even destroying a small country – truly destroying it, turning the entire country into a sea of flames, with nothing growing.
"I see, they can't beat Shiki, so they're looking for help?" the Knight King said.
"...Hehe, no one expected Shiki to still be alive. Rumor has it that he disappeared after escaping from Impel Down ten years ago. Everyone thought he was dead..."
Unico chuckled. "However, the Alliance is looking for new forces to join not just because of Shiki. There's a sense of desperation, because the Alliance is the weaker of the several major pirate forces that are emerging..."
The three Emperors of the Alliance were either Logia-type Devil Fruit users, martial arts masters, or great swordsmen. They had three major pirate crews under their command, as well as several other pirate crews attached to the Alliance, with a total fighting force of about 5,000 people.
However, although this force was not small, there were many other forces of the same level, or even slightly stronger. Moreover, now that the Four Emperors had become Three Emperors, their strength had been greatly reduced.
"Is that so?" Thinking of this, the Knight King nodded. "Tell me the exact location of Flame Island."
"This... you don't really want to destroy the Alliance, do you?" Unico said hesitantly.
"What, is there a problem?"
"No, it's just that the Alliance and the captain of the Flame Pirates have basically reached an agreement. The Alliance will probably have another 'Flame Emperor.'"
Four great pirates, even if they weren't Yonko, could put up a fight in a 4-on-1 situation.
Hearing this, Vladimir narrowed his eyes slightly. Before the Knight King could speak, he said, "Another Flame Emperor? Only one Emperor title is allowed. It's better to destroy the Alliance after all."
"Who are you?"
Unico was stunned. He could clearly hear that this wasn't the Knight King's voice.
However, since this person was by the Knight King's side, he must also be a member of the Phantom, maybe even another executive.
Seeing this, the Knight King explained from the side.
"He is the captain of our Phantom Pirates... the Vladimir Emperor!"
After a pause, the Knight King added, "This time, the Vladimir Emperor will personally take action to destroy the Alliance."
Hearing this, Unico suddenly fell into a daze.
The Vladimir Emperor!
The legendary Phantom captain had appeared!
He was completely stunned, unable to say a word. After a long time, he just smiled bitterly.
The Alliance was really courting death. They had provoked the boss of a group of fierce people!
What kind of monster-level strength did a person have to have to keep the Sea Dragon, Nine-Tailed Fox, Knight King, and other executives in check?
Just thinking about it gave Unico a sense of dread. At least Yonko-level, or even reaching the level of the former Pirate King Roger, surpassing Yonko-level combat power!
Taking a deep breath, Unico braced himself and spoke.
"Flame Island is at..."
...
"Flame Island is at..."
Unico reported a specific location, then said in a low voice, "The Alliance is preparing to continue expanding its forces after inviting the 'Flame Emperor' to join. If you want to take action, you have to do it as soon as possible, otherwise the Alliance will expand faster and faster!"
The New World was in chaos, and it was a great opportunity to expand forces. Just in the past two days, several pirate alliances had emerged.
The Alliance to Overthrow the Four Emperors was no exception.
Hearing this, the Knight King nodded in satisfaction. "You've done well. Continue to go undercover for now. After we destroy the Alliance, the Vladimir Emperor will have Shadow Demon meet with you."
"Yes!"
Hanging up the phone, Vladimir had a thought and immediately retracted the Knight King's phantom body.
With a flash of golden light, the Knight King turned into a stream of light and merged into Vladimir's body.
After a moment of thought, Vladimir also retracted Uchiha Itachi, then summoned the Nine-Tailed Fox and the Shadow Demon.
The Nine-Tailed Fox was naturally in human form. A three-star Nine-Tailed Fox, plus a two-star Shadow Demon, and a five-star Sea Dragon, now it was full ten stars again.
He was going to attack Flame Island, so naturally the combination of the Nine-Tailed Fox and the Sea Dragon was the most powerful. As for the Shadow Demon...
"I have to try first and see if the Shadow Demon can directly infiltrate the Dream World!"
With that in mind, Vladimir divided his mind into four parts, controlling the three phantom bodies and his main body separately.
After these few days of training, he had somewhat mastered the "Phantom Body Control" skill. He could theoretically divide himself infinitely and control a huge number of phantom bodies, but currently, Vladimir could only manage to divide himself into four, which was already the limit.
