246 What a Vicious Strategy
🕑 Added 2025-07-29 10:08:09 +0000 UTCWith the end of the Summit War, the balance of power on the seas completely collapsed, and the long-standing division of forces was instantly shattered.
Today, the sea is a powder keg—every major force is ready to act, each plotting something big.
Who knows what will happen in the coming days?
If things go badly, a full-scale war could erupt at any moment, potentially bringing an end to the chaotic era that has lasted for so many years.
Because of this, the Charlotte Family has been eager to form an alliance with the Beasts Pirates to stand against the rising tide of other forces.
Even if an official alliance isn’t formed, at the very least, they want to leave a good impression on the Beasts Pirates.
Maintaining a favorable relationship with a powerhouse like the Beasts Pirates is crucial.
Although no one knows exactly what Charlotte Linlin is thinking, it’s clear that deep down, they’ve been reluctant to make enemies of Kaido’s crew.
Forming an alliance would be the ideal outcome.
But now, Kronos has made an outrageous demand—insisting they capture Fei Liubao in exchange for the lives of Katakuri and the others.
Kaido will surely hold them accountable for this afterward!
The thought of possibly going to war against the world’s strongest creature made everyone in the Charlotte Family break out in cold sweat.
“The world’s strongest creature”—just hearing that title makes them shudder uncontrollably.
Their legs trembled.
The Charlotte clan was no fool, and Charlotte Linlin, a cunning and seasoned Yonko, could clearly see Kronos' true intention.
Simply put—
He wants to manipulate her into fighting Kaido to the death!
That way, neither the Charlotte Family nor the Beasts Pirates would be able to take part in the next major conflict.
Charlotte Linlin let out a deep, bitter sigh. After several minutes of brooding, she reluctantly agreed to Kronos’ demand.
"Fine, I’ll do it."
"But you have to promise me—you won't lay a hand on my children."
"If even a single hair is harmed, I’ll come for you personally!"
Charlotte Linlin’s voice grew more menacing as she spoke.
But Kronos had already anticipated this condition. With a calm smile, he replied, “Relax. As long as they behave and don’t cause trouble, I won’t touch them.”
“After all, they’re my pawns now. Why would I harm my own pieces?”
With Kronos’ promise, Charlotte Linlin felt a little more at ease. Despite his ruthless nature, Kronos was known to keep his word.
Once the call with the Den Den Mushi ended, Charlotte Linlin could no longer contain her rage—she erupted in fury, smashing everything around her.
This incident was nothing short of a massive humiliation for her.
Ever since she became one of the Four Emperors, no one—neither the Marines nor even the arrogant Celestial Dragons—had ever dared speak to her like this.
But Kronos?
He had repeatedly provoked her.
And now, he had even taken Katakuri and the others hostage?
When had the Charlotte Family ever been treated with such contempt?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
Boiling with rage!
She wanted nothing more than to storm in right now and tear Kronos apart!
