The Chinjao family was sailing across the seas, embarking on another job since they were a mercenary organization known as the Happo Navy. They had started in the West Blue and had gradually made a name for themselves in the New World over the past few years, taking on various jobs in these waters.

Today, they were transporting a large sum of money for an organization, escorting a ship from a country that heavily relied on the Donquixote family's weapons. Now that the family had been destroyed, they had to turn to another organization to purchase arms.

Many countries that still depended on the Donquixote family and their weapons factories were in the same predicament. Numerous conflicts continued to ravage their lands, and some countries and organizations had abandoned this supplier as soon as Doflamingo was killed, knowing that without Joker, they were as fragile as glass, easily shattered.

Those who still trusted in them due to Kaido's association were caught by surprise when Dressrosa fell along with the family. They no longer had a way to receive their shipments, even though this would have happened eventually with the organization heading to war in Wano against the Straw Hats.

"The sea is in chaos right now... Do you think we'll make it to our new supplier without any problems...?" A man, who was from a kingdom embroiled in civil war, asked aboard the ship in the center of the Happo Navy. He needed to bring a new shipment to his kingdom. After all, they had to fight against the rebels who had risen up against the royal family due to their tyranny. They knew this, but they could do nothing except fight for their king, even though he was a tyrant.

"The Happo Navy is well-known... Few pirates could stand against them," another man replied.

"I hope you're right..." the first man murmured.

Meanwhile, on one of the larger ships, Sai, one of the main members, approached his grandfather, the fearsome Chinjao, the Drill. This man had a bounty of 500 million berries and was known for his powerful headbutt, though not as much anymore due to an encounter with Vice-Admiral Garp. Even so, he was still a formidable pirate with Conqueror's Haki, which said a lot about him.

"Grandpa... are you okay?" Sai approached Chinjao, who had been staring at one side of the horizon for several minutes, something unusual for his grandfather.

"Did you notice something, Grandpa...?" Boo, Sai's brother, also approached.

"Yes... something is coming from that direction..." Chinjao murmured, his narrowed gaze indicating that his Haki had detected a certain danger approaching.

"Should we prepare to fight?" Sai, seeming to read his grandfather's mind, asked.

"Yes, tell everyone to prepare for a major battle," he said in a grim tone.

Sai nodded and left to use the Den Den Mushis to give orders to all the ships of the Happo Navy.

As Chinjao had foreseen, a dark spot began to appear on the horizon, and Boo, standing beside him, grabbed a spyglass and pointed it toward that direction, beginning to make out the ship in the distance and its flag.

"T-That!" His voice came out shaky and nervous as one of the main causes of the chaos currently gripping the New World was heading toward them. "There's no doubt... that ship..." His nervousness was not only due to the symbol on the ship's sail but also because of the ship itself. Rumors and reports had been spreading about this crew appearing in various places in the New World, but this ship represented the worst of it, as it had been sighted at Gran Tesoro just days ago.
