Chapter 252: Brewing Conspiracy
Somewhere in the New World,
A Marine Battleship docked at the pier, and Kuina and Regis disembarked from the ship. The people at the dock involuntarily made way for them to pass, seeing their Marine cape.
"Is he really on this island?" Kuina questioned, glancing at the medium-sized town.
"If our intelligence report is accurate..." Regis answered.
After a few minutes of searching and asking around, the duo ends up in a restaurant cum bar. As soon as they entered the restaurant, they witnessed six thugs bound to the floor.
Despite trying their best, none of them could move or get up. It's as if some unique power pressed them to the floor.
'Devil Fruit ability...' Regis and Kuina looked at each other. They finally found the man Blaize-san asked for.
"Old man, do you know who we are? We are members of the Madboss Pirate group." One of the punks shrieked, lifting his head with difficulty.
The blind man responded. "Oh! It seems like I can send you all to hell without hesitation. Thanks for telling me who you are!"
Issho unsheathes a sword from his cane, and a crushing force produces a massive hole in the floor, swallowing the pirates. The entire restaurant harbored a pin-drop silence as everyone was in awe of the blind man's power."Bahahaha...Old Man, you are good and strong. I like you!" Regis laughed and praised as he appreciated the blind man's personality.
"Excuse me, mister, do I know you?" Issho asked, sheathing the sword back.
"We are from the Marines. We are currently recruiting strong personnel all over the world! Are you interested in joining the Marines? Your haki, it's strong." Kuina explained.
"And, we came to this island in search of you. Fleet Admiral Blaize asked us to recruit you especially as he thinks highly of you. He even said your strength rivals that of Admiral's."
"I didn't think I was famous enough to be noticed by the Fleet Admiral of the Marines" Issho was confused. Though he planned to join the Marines after much consideration, he hadn't decided or contacted anyone yet.
Sensing something, Issho looked at Kuina. "Little girl, you seem to dislike me. May I know the reason?"
"Though you are blind, your observation Haki is extraordinary! I want to know whether you are as strong as Blaize-san said..." Kuina commented as her hand grasped the hilt of her sword.
"Oh!" Issho showed an interested expression. From Kuina, he can sense the aura of the strong swordsman.
The air turned tense as the aura of the two brought a sense of oppression to the people present within a few meters range.
"Woah! Woah! Woah! Can we stop this, please? At least, do this somewhere else!" Regis interrupted at the right time and asked,
"What do you say, Mister, are you interested in joining the Marines?"
After a minute of silence, Issho answered. "Yes!"
"Good! Let's return to the Headquarters!"

Artificial Sky Island, Dawn.
As soon as Blaize came, he was greeted by Dragon, Sabo, Koala, Jax, Akira, Madara, and other Demon Squad members.
"Blaize-san, you are here! We have been waiting for your arrival for some time." Sabo adjusted his top hat and said.
"Well...I was busy with some personal matters." Blaize responded, remembering his time with Hancock.
"You made quite a commotion. You could have taken one step at a time, I don't know why you rushed everything. Since it's done, we need to prepare ourselves.
The World Government won't rest until they kill you and regain their lost reputation." Dragon commented.
"No Worries. I can deal with them. Ignore my problem, it's the perfect time for you guys to make a move on Mary Geoise." Blaize shrugged, not taking the World Government's threat seriously.
"Since the Marines are under your control, it's the perfect time to clear out the World Government agents and spies. For that, we need to force them out by directly affecting their interest." Dragon briefed his strategy.
"I don't like any of these. With our strength, we can barge into wherever that Geoise is and bring the so-called Celestial Dragons to their knees." Madara snorted. He's long done with the so-called manipulation and schemes.
"Well...considering your strength, there really isn't any need for all these." Jax agreed solemnly.
"The World Government isn't as simple as you think. Have you heard of God's Knights?" Dragon asked.
"God's Knights?" Everyone looked at each other in wonder.
"They are a group of troublesome individuals with terrifying strength. They will intervene only when things get troublesome. I haven't encountered them personally but I heard my dad and colleagues talk about them." Dragon told what he knew.
Everyone took a deep breath after hearing about it. The World Government is like a mystery box that can give a surprise every time you open it.
"Proceed with the plan you prepared, Dragon. If something goes wrong, I will deal with it." Blaize's entire bearing exuded an aura of confidence.
His absolute confidence gave others peace of heart. With him here, they have the confidence to do the impossible.
"Aside from Madara, everyone follows Dragon's lead. Madara, I need your help. I kept the exciting part for you." Blaize teased.

"Ring...Ring...Ring! Clank!"
"Mama...Mama! Kaido, it's been some time since we last spoke. Isn't it?" Big Mom's voice came from the other side of the Den Den Mushi.
"What do you want, Linlin?" Kaido frowned, as he gulped the wine.
"Don't act stupid with me, Kaido. I know the World Government contacted you. Did you agree?" Big Mom asked.
"My decision is none of your business. It seems I'm not the only one they reached out. Ridiculous!" Kaido snorted.
"mama...mama...It shows how afraid they are of him. Tell me about him, Kaido, I heard you faced him some time ago and fled in a sorry state." Big Mom sniggered.
"Do you want to die, Linlin?" Kaido roared. Without his notice, his hand caressed the scorching wound on his chest that still pains from time to time.
He won't forget that battle in his lifetime. It was deeply imprinted in his mind, that man's strength is stronger than Roger and Captain Rocks.
