In the New World, on a small island less than 10 square kilometers in size, there was once a peaceful and ordinary little town.

But now, due to the arrival of two groups of uninvited guests, the townspeople had fled in fear. The entire island had turned into a massive battlefield.

"What the hell is that?!"

"So many wild beasts! They're huge!"

"Those aren't beasts—they're people! Zoan-type Devil Fruit users! Damn it, why did they come here to fight? What are they after?!"

"Look at that giant gorilla-looking guy! He's made out of… cookies?!"

"There's more than one! Look—an army of biscuit soldiers!"

"Do you not see it?! That's the flag of the Beasts Pirates—and the Big Mom Pirates! Two of the Four Emperors' crews are clashing! Run, unless you want to die caught in the crossfire!"

Realizing who was fighting, the townspeople went pale. No one dared stay behind. They bolted even faster than before, terrified they'd become collateral damage in a clash between Yonko.

"You cowardly bastards! Come out already!"

"Sending out all these biscuit soldiers—what good will it do?! I'll crush them all myself!"

A massive mammoth was barreling through biscuit soldiers, smashing them to pieces with powerful swings of its trunk.

Beside it, Beasts Pirates members—fully transformed into fearsome creatures like tigers, lions, elephants, leopards, and vultures—were tearing through the cookie army using all sorts of abilities.

"Heheheh…"

"Jack the Drought, one of Kaido's three All-Stars—hand over Caesar, or no one here is leaving alive!"

On the other side stood a relatively small-framed but fierce-looking man wielding a massive sword. He had three tufts of hair at the back of his head, wore a cape and shoulder armor on only one side, with wide breeches and black boots. A scar marked his right eye, and his gaze was filled with bloodlust.

This was Charlotte Cracker, one of the Big Mom Pirates' Sweet Commanders, known as the Biscuit Minister. His bounty stood at a staggering 860 million Berries!

"You arrogant fools!"

"You really think those toys are enough to take what Kaido-sama wants? Such naive fools… you deserve death!"

Jack's glare was ice cold.

"Everyone, full beast form! Rip those bastards apart!"

"ROOOOAAAR!!"

With Jack's roar, his men transformed and surged forward like a wild beast stampede, raising clouds of dust as they charged toward Cracker and Capone Bege.

"Freaks, all of them!"

"But when it comes to large-scale battles… no one outclasses me!"

"Jack the Drought, last time on Toroyasu Island things were too chaotic—I didn't get the chance to teach you a proper lesson. This time, just surrender and hand Caesar over!"

Cracker sneered. Instantly, the destroyed biscuit soldiers reformed, giving rise to even more fearsome biscuit generals.

The biscuit generals beat their arms—each strike multiplying their limbs—until all were wielding swords and easily parrying attacks from the Beasts Pirates.

With just his own power, Cracker had formed an entire army of overwhelming strength. It was only a Paramecia-type fruit, but he had developed the Bisu Bisu no Mi (Biscuit-Biscuit Fruit) to its absolute peak.

"Forming such a big army… that's gotta drain your stamina, huh?"

"Let's see how long you last!"

"Everyone! Tear apart these cookie toys! Kill every last one of those Big Mom bastards!"

Jack was a brute, never one to back down. As a Zoan Ancient-type user who had awakened his fruit, his strongest trait was his endurance in prolonged combat.

The war was on the verge of erupting.

One side: Jack the Drought, one of the infamous All-Stars of the Beasts Pirates.

The other: Charlotte Cracker, one of the fearsome Sweet Commanders of Big Mom.

Neither was a pushover. Both were elite figures of the New World—and when monsters of this caliber clashed, the result would be cataclysmic.

"Just die already! Both sides! Kill each other off!"

On a ship nearby, Caesar stood shackled in sea stone cuffs, guarded by a group of pirates. From the deck, he watched the chaos unfold and cursed under his breath.

"It's all that bastard Doflamingo's fault!"

"Dying in his own damn country without even warning me… left me alone in Punk Hazard!"

"First the Big Mom Pirates came, then Jack the Drought from Kaido's side. Big Mom even called for backup and brought in some other powerhouse…"

"I ran for so long, and in the end—I still got caught!"

"Go ahead, fight! The more brutal the better! Whether I go to Kaido or Big Mom, I'm screwed either way!"

Caesar fumed internally.

He had tricked Big Mom out of funding and heard all the horror stories about Kaido's brutality. No matter where he ended up, he'd be dead meat.

"This is insane… So this is what a Yonko commander is capable of?"

"They're all monsters…"

Seeing the scale of the battle, Caesar trembled.

All he could do was pray both sides wiped each other out—only then might he have a chance to escape.

…

Meanwhile, on the other side of the island, a pirate ship flying a flag adorned with nine dragons quietly docked.

"Hey! Are you nuts?! Don't you hear those explosions?! That's two Yonko crews fighting over there! You'll die if you go near them! Run!"

"Don't bother warning them—they're pirates!"

"Wait… Pirates? Are they trying to join the war too? My god, we need to get the hell out of here! The island's going to be overrun!"

Panicked civilians shouted as they rushed to evacuate the coast.

"So… it's already begun?"

"A battle of this scale… now that's something worth watching."
