Secondly.
The crew member he had newly recruited in the New World was also dead.
He had died under Ignis Glow's Ryūjin Jakka.
He didn't even have the qualifications to leave a corpse behind.
Although Red Hair Shanks really wanted to avenge Rockstar.
This was related to the reputation and fame of the Red Hair Pirates.
However. There was still something more important waiting for him right now.
The initial purpose of the Red Hair Pirates coming to the first half of the Grand Line!
The Summit War..!
And.
Although Red Hair Shanks had a chance to bet that the man's stamina was running low now.
If he let Beckman, whose strength was close to his, join the battle, the balance of victory might tilt towards their Red Hair Pirates.
But with that kind of ending.
Thinking of the power that the man had displayed that was suspected to be multiple Devil Fruit abilities!
Red Hair Shanks' face was extremely solemn.
His crew members would definitely suffer heavy casualties!
Therefore, Red Hair Shanks didn't dare to bet! And he wasn't willing to bet at that cost!
Holding the 'Gryphon' that couldn't be put back into its scabbard for the time being.
Red Hair Shanks looked at Ignis Glow.
After that.
Red Hair Shanks threw Gryphon and stuck it in the ground at his feet.
He glanced at Yasopp and the group of companions who had followed him for decades.
Red Hair Shanks faced Ignis Glow in the midst of the Red Hair Pirates' drastically changing expressions.
He said: "Kaido is already dead, and my people have also paid the price for his arrogance, let this battle... end here."
As soon as the words fell.
"Sh-Shanks!"
"Shanks!"
The Red Hair Pirates' pupils suddenly widened.
And this scene. If it was placed outside.
It would definitely shock the entire world.
Because the Red Hair Pirates, who were one of the Yonko Pirates!
Under the gathering of all the executives.
The leader, the Yonko Red Hair' Shanks, actually took the initiative to propose ending the battle against an elderly man who had fought several battles in a row!
And rather than saying that this was taking the initiative to end the battle.
It was better to say that the Yonko Red Hair Pirates were actually going to abandon their reputation and even their fame! And take the initiative to bow their heads!
Moreover. The Red Hair Pirates' opponent was not other pirate crews who were also in the Yonko camp!
Or facing the entire Navy Government, or even the behemoth that was the World Government!
But! The opponent was only a man who was alone!
At this moment.
"End?"
Standing on this bare battlefield now~.
The Ryūjin Jakka in Ignis Glow's hand didn't put it away because Red Hair Shanks had thrown his sword 'Gryphon' and stuck it on the ground.
And then made a statement wanting to end this conflict between him and the Red Hair Pirates.
Correspondingly.
What appeared in Ignis Glow's indifferent eyes was a hint of disdain.
He first used his sword to burn Kaido's corpse to ashes, in order to prevent the World Government from obtaining more lineage factors from Kaido's body to manufacture various weapons.
After that, Ignis Glow turned around and faced Red Hair Shanks: "In your opinion, are rules also for those who can't survive without rules?"
Looking at Red Hair Shanks, whose face changed when he heard the words.
Ignis Glow was very clear about Red Hair Shanks' eagerness to end this conflict.
It was nothing more than the fact that the Red Hair Pirates still had other purposes for coming to the first half of the Grand Line right now.
Seeing that they couldn't take him down with strength, they wanted to leave directly.
However.
Could Red Hair Shanks say that it was over and it would be over?
Who decided this?
From the beginning.
This battlefield, which was originally launched by the World Government's 'Demon Slaying Operation'.
Since he killed 'Steel Bones' Kong, the Chief Commander of the World Government, Kaido belonged to the side that had secretly witnessed Ignis Glow's power, and then took the lead in having murderous intentions.
Therefore. Ignis Glow wanted Kaido's life.
There was a trace to follow.
And now the Red Hair Pirates in front of him.
Appeared to stop Ignis Glow from killing Kaido.
The reason at the beginning was actually that killing Kaido would break the balance of the New World'?
Even if Ignis Glow put aside the fact that Red Hair Shanks had any qualifications to ask him for this face.
Was the combination of the Navy, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and the Four Emperors, which were maintaining the balance of the era' on the surface of this world, really something that should exist?
Had no one ever questioned it?
As a time-traveler, in Ignis Glow's eyes.
This so-called balance of the three major powers'.
Was nothing more than a 'rule' shackle that the extremely hypocritical World Government had deliberately created for this sea in order to maintain its absolute ruling power.
Rather than saying that it was to maintain the balance of power between the Grand Line and the New World'.
It was better to say that the World Government was creating rules in places that didn't need rules through its power behind the scenes.
And ensuring chaos in places that needed rules.
While never threatening the power in the hands of the World Government.
It just made the world mistakenly believe that without the rules set by the World Government, there would be extremely serious consequences.
From this, it could be seen.
What kind of existence was the so-called three major powers' that maintained the current era's balance on the surface.
The real purpose from the beginning.
Had nothing to do with ordinary people living in the pirate world.
Ignis Glow had lived as a marine in the North Sea for nearly forty years.
He saw it very clearly.
In the eyes of ordinary people, those things were far less important than eating a full meal, reuniting with their families, and avoiding a pirate attack.
Moreover, looking at the so-called balance of the era' that Red Hair Shanks had just said.
Just look at the Dressrosa Kingdom that was occupied by Doflamingo to know.
The current number one weapons supplier in the underground dark world, constantly transporting various weapons to various kingdoms and pirate forces, and whose business also included intelligence, slaves, human trafficking, and all illegal activities.
Or the Alabasta Kingdom, which was almost occupied by Crocodile, who was also in the 'Seven Warlords of the Sea' camp in the past.
Although compared to the former Dressrosa Kingdom, the Alabasta Kingdom had not been truly taken over by pirates in name.
