Sakory and Reef had no idea that, in Jack's eyes, they were already as good as dead.
Even if they had known, they likely wouldn't have cared.
In their minds, Jack's string of accomplishments was nothing more than Kaido's doing. They assumed Kaido had sent people to handle Jack's opponents while Jack took all the credit. The high bounty on Jack's head? Just an empty reputation that didn't reflect his true abilities.
To them, Jack's victories were a farce. They figured Kaido hims...

Kaido went to great lengths to pass those two Ancient Zoan Devil Fruits to the Ulti and Page One siblings in such a roundabout way. It wasn't just to avoid appearing too obvious—he also wanted to appease the Tobiroppo and offer them an explanation. After all, even among the Tobiroppo, not everyone was a Devil Fruit user. Quite a few of them had been eyeing those Ancient Zoans greedily for a while.
To Jack, Kaido often felt like a brilliant schemer, a lover of indulgence, and someone w...

One of Kaido's secretarial aides entered the room with a bright smile, kneeling politely before him.
"Kaido-sama, here's the report from Udon."
"Oh? Let me see."
Kaido flipped through a few pages, a smirk forming on his face.
"Well, well, it seems Jack's been rather capable this time. He's already started splitting up those pesky samurai?"
"There's even a chance they might join the Beasts Pirates?"
"Ha! Not bad, not bad at all!"

The moment Queen walked in and overheard Jack's words, he turned on his heel and left without a word. Jack and his crew didn't notice—they were entirely focused on Yamato.
The hundreds of prisoners, knowing their lives were forfeit, lunged at Yamato with reckless abandon.
Despite her bravado and constant proclamations about wanting to be a mighty warrior, cutting down foes and claiming victory, Yamato was fundamentally kindhearted.
Although Jack had forced her to kill seve...

Despite their simmering resentment, none of the warriors dared act against the intimidating presence of Jack. Fear wasn't for themselves alone—they had families, loved ones. If they died, what would become of them? Those without families had long since crumbled under the oppression, some even choosing death to escape humiliation.
Jack, watching the defeated expressions of the warriors, knew he had them in the palm of his hand. Everyone had a weakness. He'd exploited theirs, and now th...

"What are you doing?! Let's talk this out! Don't do this!"

Pain and anger drove the prisoners into a frenzied brawl, their fists relentlessly hammering away at their former cellmates. Some had gone bloodshot-eyed with rage, using their shackles to strike down others, while others joined the chaos in a full-blown melee. Just as it seemed someone might be killed, Jack barked an order.
Pirates armed with whips and clubs stormed in, breaking up the brawl.

The prisoners, though curious about Yamato and Jack, didn't dare approach or strike up a conversation.
Years of breaking rocks had taught them caution. They didn't recognize Jack or Yamato, but their instincts warned them to steer clear. Jack's hulking frame and intimidating eyes—dominated by whites—screamed danger. Meanwhile, Yamato, though seemingly just a girl, carried heavy stones with ease, darting around like it was nothing. Clearly, these two were no ordinary people.

Before Jack could say anything, Yamato grabbed her spiked club and stormed off, brimming with fury. Jack watched her ...

Kaido transformed into his Azure Dragon form, a single blast of his fiery breath incinerating several fleeing pirates in the distance. Yamato and Black Maria leapt onto his back, but when Jack tried to join them, Kaido swatted him down with a flick of his massive tail. Frustrated, Jack stretched out his hands and grabbed onto Kaido's dragon claw as it swept over him.
After returning to Onigashima and taking a bath, Jack headed straight to the banquet hall in the pleasure quarters. Maste...

After a few days of rest, Jack boarded the Mammoth and set out for Wano Country.
The massive crocodile carrying him was as intimidating as ever—at least in appearance. Unfortunately, it was still a creature that couldn't endure long treks. But for now, it was the best mount Jack could find, so he grudgingly used it to make his way toward Mount Atama.
Some of his crew wanted to follow him, but Jack stopped them. With his current strength, there was no need for help to deal with t...

Yamato was brimming with excitement, enthusiastically showing off her collection of jewelry to Black Maria.
Nearby, the siblings Ulti and Page One were perched atop a towering ten-meter elephant, curiously taking in the sights of Onigashima. Behind them, a group of fish-men sat atop a variety of strange, dinosaur-like mounts, trailing behind Rim, who led the procession.
At the very back, dozens of towering elephants, each several meters tall, slowly hauled heavy cargo toward Oniga...

As Jack sprinted toward Onigashima, he was surprised to find how much had changed in just over a year.
New buildings had sprung up everywhere, with many still under construction. The island buzzed with activity—shirtless slaves worked tirelessly, hauling materials, while even pirates had been roped into dragging carts like human pack animals.
There was no need to ask, this had to be Kaido's handiwork. Only he could so efficiently exploit every advantage of his unde...

The sudden revelation that Jack could wield Conqueror's Haki left Rim and Master utterly stunned.
Even with the surge in pirate numbers caused by Roger's last words, Conqueror's Haki was still exceptionally rare. Whether in the relatively weak Four Seas or the powerhouse-packed New World, Conqueror's Haki was more like a legend. Most people had only heard of it but never actually witnessed it.
The stories about Conqueror's Haki were wild—claims that only one in a million could p...

He glanced down at the thick bandages wrapped tightly around his chest and struggled to sit up.

Red-Haired Shanks.
Jack had heard the name more than once. Even Kaido and King had spoken about him. Their tone when mentioning Shanks was different—almost like they respected the guy.
Of course, Kaido's compliments were as subtle as ever. His exact words were:
