"The direction the Dragon Knight is currently heading is the territory of one of the five great overlords of the seas, BIG-MOM Charlotte Linlin, formed by 35 islands."
"The Totto Land Kingdom."
After recounting Karl's god-sealing year of Sea Circle Calendar 1517, to popularize the Dragon Knight's power and legendary status among the people of the world who were still not very familiar with him, Morgans continued his explanation.
"Mamamama... I'm the first one?"
Hearing this, Charlotte Linlin, who had also installed a Visual Den Den Mushi on Whole Cake Island.
She was stuffing her face with sweets, and a liquid, it was unknown whether it was cream or acid-like, was flowing from the corners of her mouth, melting pits that emitted white smoke on the ground. A ferocious smile instantly appeared on her face, "In that case, I'll gladly accept that 500 billion Berries."
"As long as I defeat that arrogant brat before those other three guys, I'll be an existence that surpasses Kaido."
"Mamamama... If there really is a new era, then its namer will be me!"
"Perospero, and you, Katakuri, go outside and welcome that brat."
"...Yes, Mama!"
Also in the hall filled with desserts, Charlotte Perospero and Charlotte Katakuri, who were watching the world broadcast, both nodded and then left the hall.
Although Karl and the Blue-Eyes White Dragon had just set off from Gran Tesoro.
But out of respect and awe for an overlord of the seas, they were waiting outside for Karl's arrival in advance.
And this wait... lasted for three hours.
The speed of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon was extremely fast. As for how fast?
Just like Kizaru traveling from the first half of the Grand Line to the New World in a day, if the Blue-Eyes White Dragon didn't restrain its speed, it could completely fly from the New World to the first half of the Grand Line within a day.
This speed was the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's speed in Sea Circle Calendar 1517.
Now, if it were to fly at full speed using its fruit ability, it could return from the New World to the first half of the Grand Line in about half a day.
In a little over a day, it could fly back to the East Blue from the New World.
Because... Karl had completed his third evolution.
Not considering the steel bird and Morgans behind it, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon did not use its Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability.
Even so, with its seven-star level and a body that had grown another size, sharing Karl's third-evolution Monster Physique for flight, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon only took three hours to travel from Gran Tesoro to the Totto Land Kingdom.
Looking down at the archipelago scattered like stars below, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, who was in this sea area for the first time, directly released its astonishingly powerful Observation Haki, quickly found the main island, Whole Cake Island, and then dived down.
During this period, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's descent was not met with any fire from the other 34 islands.
Clearly, the soldiers on these islands had all received orders from above.
"Hehehehe... Welcome to the Totto Land Kingdom, Lord Dragon Knight."
When the Blue-Eyes White Dragon landed in front of a dessert castle layered with cakes on Whole Cake Island.
Charlotte Perospero, holding a candy cane and wearing a top hat with several lollipops stuck in it, immediately let out a unique laugh, walked in front of Karl who had just dismounted from the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, gave a very gentlemanly bow, and introduced himself, "I am Charlotte Perospero, and next to me is my younger brother, Charlotte Katakuri. Our mother sent us to welcome you, Lord Dragon Knight."
"I know. The eldest son of the Charlotte Family, and the masterpiece of the Charlotte Family."
Looking up at the eldest and second sons of the Charlotte Family, whose heights completely dwarfed his, Karl smiled and nodded.
Then, he moved the vertically placed rectangular box from the back of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, and said to the dragon, "Shiro, you can go back first!"
"Wuao..."
The Blue-Eyes White Dragon responded softly, and then finally used its Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability.
It transformed into a giant blue-white bolt of lightning, shooting into the sky like a meteor.
In just the blink of an eye, it disappeared from the sight of Charlotte Perospero and Charlotte Katakuri.
Seeing this, the pupils of the two brothers couldn't help but contract.
That speed... was too fast, wasn't it?!
Is this the pure dragon that can fight a Marine Admiral to a standstill?!
Under the perception of Charlotte Perospero's and Charlotte Katakuri's Observation Haki, they only saw the Blue-Eyes White Dragon for an instant before it disappeared from their perception range.
One must know, one was a great pirate with a bounty of 700 million Berries, and the other was a great pirate with a bounty of 1,057,000,000 Berries!
Especially the latter, whose bounty was 57 million Berries higher than the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's, and who had mastered the highest level of application in Observation Haki, the prediction of the future, at the level of a first mate of an Emperor.
However...
Charlotte Katakuri's Observation Haki only saw a streak of blue-white light that disappeared from his perception in the blink of an eye.
Little did he know, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, whose bounty was 57 million Berries lower than his, was actually at the level of a true overlord of the seas.
The world believed that in the New World, this strongest of seas, there were only five overlords of the seas.
In fact, there were actually seven overlords of the seas in this strongest of seas.
They were:
Whitebeard, Kaido, Charlotte Linlin, Shanks, Karl, and... Benn Beckman and the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.
Although Charlotte Katakuri was the masterpiece of the Charlotte Family, and his strength might not be inferior to Marco's or King the Conflagration's.
But there was still a certain distance between him and Benn Beckman.
Because Benn Beckman was an existence that could be compared to an Emperor of the Sea.
It was just that...
Just as Silvers Rayleigh was willing to be the first mate of the Pirate King, Gol D. Roger, Benn Beckman, whose strength and intelligence were both at the pinnacle of the great sea, was also willing to be Shanks's brain and first mate.
The Blue-Eyes White Dragon, on the other hand, could share all of Karl's strength and abilities, except for the Spear of Mystery.
Its strength was not much inferior to Karl's.
If it weren't a dragon, then the Blue-Eyes White Dragon and Benn Beckman would be the true first mates of emperors.
Even so, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's strength was still the second strongest combat power of Gran Tesoro, steadily suppressing Yamato, who had mastered Conqueror's Haki Infusion and was a Mythical Zoan user.
"...Lead the way!"
Karl did not know the thoughts of the two brothers.
After politely greeting them, he picked up the large box and said as such.
"My apologies. Please follow me!"
Charlotte Perospero came back to his senses, and the way he looked at Karl was even more respectful.
As expected of an existence on the same level as his mother.
Just a single mount had a strength far surpassing his.
Following behind the two Charlotte brothers, Karl quickly reached the castle hall and saw the natural-born monster who was like him, but was born in the Rocks Era!
The natural-born monsters of the old and new eras had officially met.
