I, The Celestial Dragon, Rule The Heavens Through The Double Gate Chapter 186: Turmoil Of New World Public Opinion

At this mont, elsewhere—

In the New World, on Cake Island.

The sa shocking news had just reached Charlotte Linlin.

At the ti, she was enjoying a grand feast inside her castle.

A mountain of desserts lay in front of her, and she was eagerly stuffing her mouth with the sweetest delicacies imaginable.

Everyone around her watched with smiles, admiring the gluttony of their powerful matriarch.

But the mood shifted the mont Charlotte Katakuri entered the hall, his expression dark and grim.

"My dear son," Linlin called out warmly, "co, eat with . The food is delicious today."

She hadn’t yet noticed the seriousness in his face. Cheerfully, she waved him over to join the feast.

Katakuri, however, shook his head slightly.

Others were present in the hall—Cracker, one of the Three Sweet Commanders, was happily munching on biscuits, and other siblings were laughing and chatting.

Cracker approached enthusiastically.

"Brother Katakuri! Co try these freshly baked biscuits. They’re especially tasty today."

Katakuri Still holding a newspaper tightly in one hand, Cracker clearly hadn’t yet registered Katakuri’s mood.

The other siblings also beckoned for him to join in.

But Katakuri ignored them all. He strode straight toward Charlotte Linlin and placed the newspaper down in front of her.

His voice was heavy. "Mother. There are only two Emperors left in the New World."

The entire room fell into dead silence.

The sound of chewing stopped. The enchanted utensils—the "homies"—and even the nearby soul-infused soldiers froze.

Everyone stared at Katakuri in disbelief.

Had they heard wrong?

Only two Emperors left?

What kind of joke was that?

Wasn’t Kaido still active? And Whitebeard?

There should still be three Emperors.

How could that number suddenly drop to two?

It seed impossible.

Charlotte Linlin chuckled and assud her son was trying to make a joke. She picked up a slice of cake and stuffed it into her mouth.

She laughed heartily. "My sweet son, what nonsense are you talking about? Today isn’t even my birthday—don’t try to prank like this."

If anyone else had dared to say such a thing, Linlin would have erupted in fury. But Katakuri was her pride and joy—her most talented son.

Despite his young age, he was already the strongest among her children. His bounty had reached 800 million berries—a staggering amount for soone so young.

She had always placed her trust in him. Her tolerance for him was far greater than for anyone else.

"Brother Katakuri, quit joking around," soone laughed. "Co, sit down and eat with us."

"Yeah! The chefs really outdid themselves today. Don’t ruin the mood with such dark humor."

Everyone began laughing again, completely unaware of the gravity of the situation. None of them believed Katakuri’s words.

Katakuri’s face tightened with fury.

Their cushy lives had made them forget what danger truly felt like.

Suddenly, a powerful aura burst from his body.

A torrent of Conqueror’s Haki surged outward.

Yes—Katakuri, the young man with an 800 million bounty, had already awakened the ability to wield Conqueror’s Haki.

The overwhelming force swept through the room like a storm. The soul-infused soldiers and animated homies collapsed where they stood, eyes rolled back, unconscious.

All at once, the room went quiet.

The other children stopped laughing.

Now they understood—Katakuri wasn’t joking.

He was deadly serious.

Even Charlotte Linlin’s laughter stopped.

She stared at him. The son she trusted most was not trying to entertain her.

Soone among the Emperors had truly died.

"Katakuri," she said gravely, "what happened?"

Her expression turned cold and focused. The weight of the mont settled in.

Katakuri didn’t waste words. He reported bluntly, "Just yesterday... the Beasts Pirates in Wano—Kaido, the Emperor—was killed by the World Governnt."

The hall erupted into gasps.

Shock washed over everyone like a wave.

Now they understood: this wasn’t just serious. It was terrifying.

Kaido—A pirate who could rival Charlotte Linlin herself.

Dead.

It was unthinkable.

Only now did they begin to grasp that being a Four Emperor wasn’t a guaranteed path to safety or immortality.

The one true ruler of this world... was still the World Governnt.

"Kaido was killed?! How is that possible?!"

"Yeah! What did he do to provoke the World Governnt?!"

"Wait a minute—didn’t Akainu enter the New World recently with a fleet? Was it Akainu who took him down?"

"That can’t be! Even if Akainu is a Marine Admiral, how could he possibly defeat Kaido? He’s known as the strongest creature on land!"

"Exactly! Even Admirals don’t stand a chance against the Four Emperors!"

The hall buzzed with debate. Confusion, fear, and disbelief flooded every corner.

Charlotte Linlin frowned deeply.

Then she let out a chilling shout.

A wave of pure killing intent burst from her, enveloping the hall.

The very earth trembled beneath their feet. Her Haki vortex surged violently, sending cold sweats down the spines of her children.

The Queen of Totto Land was no longer laughing.
