Chapter 62 Stirring Up the Storm, Attracting the Attention of the Four Emperors
The high bounties for the Straw Hat Pirates and others immediately attracted the attention of many people when they were released.
With fewer than ten members, yet a total bounty exceeding 10 billion, it's just like the Red-Haired Pirates back in the day!
A new world, a world of nations.
"Mom, we've just received news that the Red-Haired Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates made contact not long ago," Perospero said.
"Mommy, Mommy~"
"Could it be that these two are going to start a war?" Charlotte Linlin chuckled. "That Kaido guy would probably be very interested."
She could even imagine how excited that bastard Kaido must be; he loves war the most.
"Mom, should we do something?"
"There's no need," Charlotte Linlin shook her head and said, "Let them fight it out."
With the tea party approaching, she had no interest in participating in any war.
"Mom, a new group of people has appeared on the high seas. It's very interesting," Garrett suddenly said.
"Oh, what is it?"
"Not long ago, a group of pirates wreaked havoc on Enies Lobby, the World Government's island of Enies Lobby," Galette said, pulling out a newspaper and a wanted poster. "And now, their bounties have been issued."
"There are actually newcomers who dare to do something like this?" Smoothie asked curiously. "How much?"
She was genuinely curious about this group of people.
"Straw Hat Pirates Captain Straw Hat Boy, bounty 420 million Berries."
Upon hearing this, everyone present wore a speechless expression, clearly not expecting Garrett to speak of such a nobody.
A bounty of over 400 million might be a huge sum for others, but for the Big Mom Pirates, it's nothing.
"Are you here to make fun of me?" Charlotte Linlin asked with a hostile look in her eyes.
Garrett instinctively shuddered and immediately said, "Mom, that's not what I meant by that guy."
It's this person.
Garette took out a bounty poster and placed it on the ground, pointing to the person inside and saying, "Blood-Eyed Ninja - Xiyan, bounty 400 million Berries."
Perhaps fearing her mother's wrath, Garrett continued without pausing, "The reason I'm talking about him is because he had such a high bounty on his first bounty."
"And the place where they made their name... is the Grand Line!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately fell silent.
The fact that such a terrifying bounty was placed on a newcomer's first bounty meant they knew all too well what it meant.
This is a complete newcomer with no background!
"So what? Katakuri's first bounty was over 4 million Berries, wasn't it?"
"Although I was very strong back then, it was mostly because of the name Charlotte," Katakuri said calmly.
He didn't feel ashamed of saying that; on the contrary, he was proud of those three words!
But Katakuri also knew that if it weren't for his mother's reputation, he might not have received such a large bounty the first time.
"Katakuri-nii-san....
"I'm just stating the facts objectively."
"This person has considerable potential..." Charlotte Linlin began, "and his bounty..."
Is capturing them alive a higher priority?
This discovery made Charlotte Linlin squint.
Based on her understanding of the World Government, this kid definitely has some unexpected secret.
Could it be because the other party is from Wano Country?
She had heard that Kaido had ninjas, but... do ninjas have such strength?
If that were the case, Kaido wouldn't have had such an easy time conquering Wano Country back then.
"That's what I'm curious about too," Garrett said. "It's rare to see a bounty poster with the words 'capture alive,' so this guy definitely has a lot of secrets."
"Even putting that aside, the fact that the first bounty is 400 million Berries is still worth our attention."
"Also, look into his eyes."
At this point, Garrett paused, as if hesitating about something.
"What's wrong with your eyes?"
"Ah, it's red!"
The others stared in astonishment at the bounty poster; it was the first time they had ever seen eyes like that.
"This person's eyes are different from ordinary people; perhaps they belong to some special race," Garrett said.
"Mmmmmmmm~"
"A special race?"
Charlotte Linlin actually showed a very interested expression. Her biggest dream was to create a world of all races!
As if remembering something, Charlotte Linlin sighed and said, "If only we had met earlier."
After shaking her head, Charlotte Linlin looked at Garrett and said, "Get to know this guy. If he's suitable... then let her marry into the family!"
"Yes, Mom!"
Charlotte Linlin glanced at her unmarried daughters present, then finally looked at Garrett and said, "Are you telling me all this because you're interested in this person?"
When she wasn't going crazy, Charlotte Linlin was actually very good to her children.
"Yes, Mom." Garrett breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. "I did have that thought."
If she could truly have a powerful husband, her influence within the Charlotte family would...
There will be more.
Even... becoming a general is not impossible!
Although they are a loving family, she also wants to get more attention from her mother.
The others exchanged glances, all understanding what Garrett meant.
It seems this guy has had his eye on this person from the very beginning, but he can't make a decision easily without his mother's consent.
"Alright, then I'll leave the task of contacting him to you."
"Okay, Mom," Jia Lei nodded in response.
This was her original idea, and now that she has her mother's permission, she can do what she wants.
As a member of the Charlotte Pirates and her mother's daughter, she doesn't have many opportunities to choose, so she has to seize them!
"Mom, what if he doesn't agree?" Smoothie asked.
After saying that, Smoothie gave Garrett a meaningful look.
"He dares to defy me?!" Charlotte Linlin's face suddenly darkened as she said, "If he doesn't know what's good for him, then kill all his companions!"
"clear!"
"Mom, we're having a tea party soon, should we send him a notification?"
"Let's talk about it after he gets to the New World," Charlotte Linlin said, shaking her head.
Water 7 isn't too far from the Sabaody Archipelago. If that group of pirates' goal is the New World, then the tea party is a month away, so they might actually be able to make it.
Wano Country, Oni Island.
Upon receiving information that Whitebeard had made contact with Shanks, Kaido immediately began gathering his subordinates, preparing to go out and join in the fun.
"Hmph, is that old Whitebeard finally going to start the world's biggest war?!" Kaido exclaimed excitedly. "I definitely have to go and support him!"
Perhaps this time, he might gain unimaginable benefits.
"Brother Kaido, an interesting newcomer has appeared on the high seas. You might be interested," King said.
"Oh?"
Tell me about it.
"This is it." King placed Xiyan's bounty poster in front of Kaido and said, "Xiyan, a member of the Straw Hat Pirates, the Blood-Eyed Ninja."
"This group of pirates wreaked havoc on Enies Lobby, the World Government's island of piracy, and their first bounty was 400 million Berries."
"The first bounty is 400 million?"
This number surprised Kaido somewhat. He wasn't an idiot and knew exactly what it meant.
Once this person is allowed to grow, he'll at least be a major figure.
If we include it in the grinding process... wait a minute?
"What did you just say his name was?"
"Blood-Eyed Ninja - Xiyan"
"A ninja?" Kaido turned his head and glanced in the direction of Hanato, frowning as he said, "Could it be that that guy did something behind our backs?"
Ninjas are unique to Wano Country; they don't exist anywhere else.
"No, if this person truly belongs to him, he would never let him leave," Jin sneered.
He's extremely afraid of dying.
Sending a powerful person out to gain experience?
Stop joking!
Someone like Kurozumi Orochi simply couldn't possibly have such a magnanimous heart.
"You're right." Kaido suddenly grinned and said, "Send this message to Orochi. Hasn't he always been afraid of that so-called twenty-year curse?"
"This so-called curse might already be coming for him, oh dear!"
"Brother Kaido, should we do something?" King asked. "The first bounty is 400 million."
In addition...

Jin stared at west Yan's blood-red eyes and said, "This person may also possess a special bloodline."
And he himself is someone with a special bloodline!
Upon hearing this, Kaido paused for a moment, then grinned and said, "Alright, I'll take this guy."
"Jin, send someone to gather information about him."
"Yes, Brother Kaido."
"Boss Kaido, the ship is ready and we can set sail at any time!" one of the underlings shouted.
"Let's set off for the ultimate war!"
"profound!!"
Unlike the two, the Whitebeard Pirates were busy dealing with their own affairs and didn't pay attention to the Straw Hat Pirates' situation, while Shanks smiled happily the moment he saw the newspaper.
"You're really capable..." Shanks laughed.
Unbeknownst to many, Luffy has grown to this level, which means the two sides may meet soon.
"The total amount of this bounty is almost equal to what we had back then."
"That's true, hahaha."
"This ninja is special." Ben Beckman pointed to west Yan's bounty poster and said, "His bounty is to capture him alive rather than kill him. Maybe the World Government has discovered something."
Shanks' eyes flickered for a moment upon hearing this, then he shook his head and said, "Let's talk about this after we see Luffy."
"Brothers, get ready! We're almost at Wano Country. We must stop Kaido there!"
"profound!"
