Chapter 98 Benevolence and Righteousness
June, 1493 (Sea Calendar), New World.
"Still no news about Kaido?"
Bazel sat on the deck with a solemn expression.
A month and a half has passed since the tea party in late April, but not a single word of the great battle that took place has been heard.
Bazeir contacted the World Economic Forum.
But Morgans stammered and could only apologize to him with a wry smile in the end.
[I'm sorry, Bazel, but this incident is the second most serious one after the God Valley incident, and it absolutely cannot be mentioned.]
If they knew the news came from me, you'd probably be attending my funeral soon.
Although a journalist's primary responsibility is to report the truth, I was truly powerless this time.
If I were the club president, perhaps I could withstand the pressure and tell you.
After hanging up with Morgans, Bazel roughly understood what had happened.
But since he was still on the ship, he couldn't contact Sengoku or Garp to ask what had happened.
"Bazaar, I've received some less-than-good news."
Hanafza ran over with a Den Den Mushi (snail phone).
"I contacted some friends I had worked with in the underworld, and their informants said that about two weeks ago, they saw a giant dragon covered in blood fall into the waters near the Sabaody Archipelago."
"But because there was no follow-up, I thought I had misread it and didn't report it."
A giant dragon?
Under Bazel's gaze, he took out Kaido's Vivre Card.
"The fire stopped burning, so Mr. Kaido must have survived."
Just then, Bazel's Den Den Mushi suddenly rang.
Olga grabbed the hem of Amaterasu's skirt, so nervous that she kept swallowing.
"Oh no, could it be a Den Den Mushi announcing Kaido's death?!"
"Don't talk nonsense."
Chi Jing glanced at Olga, picked up the card in his hand and waved it, "If Mr. Kaido dies, this life card will be burned to ashes."
Kacha—"Bazaar, who is that?"
"It is I, Lord Bazel, the merman adventurer Fisher Tiger. We met outside the Neptune's house before."
Upon hearing Tiger's voice, Bazel breathed a sigh of relief.
"I remember you. Neptune said you were a very gentle merman adventurer."
"Haha, all that gentleness and stuff~ that's just Neptune praising me. Let's get down to business."
Den Den Mushi quickly suppressed his smile:
"I found Kaido a couple of days ago while I was adventuring near Sabaody Archipelago. He was seriously injured and is still in a coma."
"I was delayed for two days because I had to treat my injury. I only remembered that I had your contact information when I finally had some free time."
"What happened to you? I remember you were going to the New World, so why is Lord Kaido here in Paradise?"
Upon hearing that Tiger had found Kaido, everyone in the audience breathed a sigh of relief.
Bazel immediately shared his previous speculations and also inquired about Kaido's current situation.
"...Oh, I see. It's the Buster Call. Come to think of it, I did see a large number of naval warships setting sail not long ago."
"As for Lord Kaido, his injuries are improving. As for when he will wake up—"
"I can't say for sure. After all, I'm not a doctor, and because of the bounty on his head, I can't go to the human world to ask a doctor to treat him."
Raising his hand to signal the excited people beside him to be quiet, Bazel thanked Tiger.
"Thank you so much for your help, Tiger. The Beasts Pirates will remember this kindness forever."
"We are about to arrive in the Land of Giants. Due to the distance, we cannot go there in person. Please take care of Kaido for the time being."
"If you need anything in the future, even if it involves the Celestial Dragons, don't worry, please feel free to contact us."
Den Den Mushi laughed heartily:
"You're too kind. I had already received news of the alliance between the Fish-Men and the Beast Pirates. Because of the Beasts Flag, those humans no longer dare to openly kidnap merfolk."
"You have already helped our merfolk a great deal; what I am doing now is just a small matter."
"Once Lord Kaido wakes up, I will have him contact you as soon as possible."
Bazel thanked him several times and repeatedly invited Tiger to visit Wano Country before hanging up the Den Den Mushi.
"Bazaar, I never imagined that your actions back then would indirectly save Mr. Kaido's life."
There was no one else around, and Chi was not wearing the mask or hood that covered his face.
At this moment, his gaze toward Bazel was full of admiration.
"So this is what you always meant by 'having more friends means having more options.' Did you foresee this unexpected event happening today?"
"As expected of you, Brother Bazel!"
It was rare to hear someone genuinely address him as "Big Brother," but Bazel wasn't particularly happy about it.
Because he hadn't thought that far ahead at all.
The alliance with the murlocs was a coincidence.
The meeting and acquaintance with Tiger was also—
Bazell said he added at most a tiny bit of admiration and pity for the other's future fate.
Otherwise, no matter how amazing he is, he couldn't possibly have foreseen the future so far in advance.
A prophet doesn't necessarily have eight heads.
But Bazel, with his eight heads, is definitely not a prophet!
"Well, Abel, you still have a lot to learn."
Despite thinking this, Bazel still patted him on the shoulder with a legitimate reason.
"As a mature man, you must learn to always look to the future and face everything with a peaceful mind. This is the mark of a man's maturity."
The Den Den Mushi rang again as soon as he finished speaking.
Kacha-
"Bazaar, we're doomed, we're surrounded!!!"
Bazel: ?
You've only just started bragging, and you're already trying to ruin things?
"Many World Government agents have surrounded this place, and Lord Kaido is still unconscious. What should we do next?!"
Bazel covered his face with one hand, looking pained.
"Tiger, didn't you just say it was relatively safe over there? Where are you now?"
"Us? Of course we're still in the Sabaody Archipelago! I just stole a lot of medicine from a human hospital!" the Den Den Mushi said seriously.
炽：
That idiot.
Hanafza: —.—.
This fishman is so adorably silly! Olga (straightforwardly): "Are you a pig? How could you steal things? Oh wait, wouldn't you get caught if you tried to steal?!"
"Pig? No, I'm a fish-man."
After making an inappropriate rebuttal, Den Den Mushi looked increasingly anxious.
"It doesn't matter that I was captured, but Lord Kaido is still waiting for my medicine!"
The tone suddenly turned aggressive: "If we kill them, no one will know we're here?"
"They don't seem to be planning to attack me—?"
Just then, the Den Den Mushi suddenly took out a transparent helmet and put it on.
"Oh my gosh~~ This is a very strange species of fishman. Hey, catch him and take him back; I want to keep him in my fish tank!"
"Oh my gosh~ Oh my gosh, I've caught another rare slave! I'm going to show it off to them when I get back!"
"Yes, Saint Purming!"
Celestial Dragons!?
Bazel's expression changed slightly: "Feed Tiger, run! That guy is a Celestial Dragon!!!"
"He didn't order the agents to act immediately because he wanted to enslave you!!"
But suddenly, the sound of fighting came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.
"Damn it, I won't surrender! I absolutely won't lead the enemy to Kai's side!"
"You all need to contact someone to come and pick him up as soon as possible. I'll lure the enemy away!"
"Damn it!" Kacha exclaimed.
The Den Den Mushi hung up, and Bazel stood up, his eyes revealing an uncontrollable rage.
Another Celestial Dragon!
After a brief moment of anger, Bazel forced himself to calm down.
Even if he's angry now, it's useless; he can't teleport directly from the waters near Elbaf in the New World to the Sabaody Archipelago.
Fisher Tiger's arrest is a done deal, and now there are only two things I can do.
He doesn't have many trustworthy pirate friends in Paradise. If Neptune goes there rashly and runs into a Celestial Dragon, things could get really interesting.
As for the Navy, that's even more impossible. He can't possibly contact his own uncle in front of them and then have a Navy admiral go to rescue the pirates, can he?
Now he can only pray that Kaido will be awakened by the aftershocks of the battle.
as well as-
"Khanafza, tell your men to hurry, we're going to Elbaf!"
The chill that flashed across Bazell's eyes startled Hanafza.
"Hey Bazel, calm down, this is a time for..."
"I am very calm."
His tone was cool and indifferent, but it was this seemingly calm voice that sent a shiver down the spines of those around him.
"We'll go to Elbaf, invite the giants to join us, and then split into two groups."
"You take the giants to Wano Country, I will quickly return to Paradise to find Kaido."
Let's go to the amusement park!?
Chi's expression changed drastically, and he grabbed Bazel's arm: "You're not planning to go to Mary Geoise to snatch someone away, are you!?"
"Abel, Tiger is my friend, and he even saved Kaido."
Bazel looked over, his expression neither sad nor happy:
"Whether he's a fish-man or a human, if a Celestial Dragon dares to capture my friend, then I'll bring my men to take him back."
"No one can take anything from pirates and then not pay any price!"
Even pirates, often called "sea trash"—
"We must also uphold benevolence and righteousness!"
