Ch: 118-123
Chapter 118 Chapter 118
"My Lord... can you... contend with the World Government?"
Gazing at Wang Haoyu on the throne.
Boa Hancock's heart trembled slightly.
That was a sign of a stirring heart.
When she let down her guard and wanted to rely on this powerful man.
Her state of mind underwent an earth-shattering change.
This transformation.
Made her develop an unusual affection for Wang Haoyu.
Or rather.
She was poisoned by love.
Her cheeks flushed red.
"Contend with the World Government? Hahahahaha!"
Hearing this question.
Wang Haoyu couldn't help but burst into laughter.
The World Government?
What kind of thing is that!
The Expeditionary Fleet could send out a random branch.
And crush the so-called World Government into dust.
To him, this question.
Was simply a huge joke.
Utterly ridiculous!
"Little sister~"
The Three Angel Kings and the Goddess of Dawn couldn't help but laugh.
"How much do you know about this World?"
In their eyes.
Fighting against the World Government was not worth mentioning at all.
As long as Wang Haoyu wished.
He could repeatedly ravage this Universe a thousand times over at any moment.
Liang Bing playfully curled her lips.
Revealing a devilish smile.
This interesting girl.
Was truly amusing.
I will help you with different writing styles.
In this World of swords and magic, Wang Haoyu's attitude decides everything.
If he approves of the woman before him,
They would be happy to affectionately call her "little sister."
But if Wang Haoyu shakes his head,
Then I'm sorry—you are worthless scum,
Destined to be crushed to dust by Umbrella's iron tide.
"Call me little sister?" Boa Hancock furrowed her delicate brows.
How could eight hundred years of accumulated heritage be a joke?
She gently stroked her snake-shaped earring with her fingertip.
Her voice carried the displeasure of being offended.
"What's eight hundred years!" Liang Bing playfully blinked, turning her head to look at Kaisha, her hair forming a beautiful arc.
"Sister, how old are we Angels considered adults?"
Wang Haoyu smiled without speaking, observing with interest.
This proud Empress's rare moment of losing composure.
Hexi raised her teacup, a faint smile on her lips.
It seems someone is going to be the jester today.
"Fifteen hundred years." Kaisha propped her chin lazily.
Playing along with their act.
"Hear that, little sister~" Liang Bing waggled her finger triumphantly.
"Eight hundred years isn't even a fraction of our adulthood!"
Boa Hancock's pupils suddenly constricted.
Her slender fingers unconsciously tightened on the armrest of the throne.
There's actually a race more long-lived than the Giant Race in this World?
Boa Hancock sat there stunned, her face filled with an expression of disbelief. Her lips trembled slightly, her eyes reddened, and glistening tears welled up.
"Since... since you possess such a long history, why do you still indulge the Celestial Dragons..." Her voice was steeped in grievance and accusation, as if weeping over an injustice that had lasted a thousand years.
Boa Hancock wiped away the tears that were about to fall with the back of her hand. Her heart was full of contradictions—fifteen hundred years to be considered an adult? Then wouldn't the lifespan of this race be calculated in tens of thousands of years? But the history of this World might not even be that long!
But these doubts were not as strong as the anticipation in her heart. Since they truly had existed for so long, why did they tolerate the Celestial Dragons' rule? This thought made her both angry and sad.
Wang Haoyu looked at Hancock, who was crying like a pear blossom bathed in rain, a playful smile on his lips. This woman's silly appearance unexpectedly pleased him.
The Three Angel Kings and Goddess Leina were initially angry at Hancock for questioning Wang Haoyu, but seeing the smile on their Master's lips, they all sighed helplessly. They were too familiar with that expression—another woman had opened their Master's heart.
This reminded them of the girls still waiting in line at Umbrella: Colonel Black Rose of the red alert system, and the Ship Girls from the Ship Girl system, ranging from maidens to mature women. Especially these Ship Girls, with their distinct personalities, an ordinary person would have been drained dry long ago, but very few truly gained Wang Haoyu's favor.
"Are you questioning us?" Goddess Leina's tone carried a hint of danger.
The ice-cold Liang Bing instantly changed her expression.
Her sharp gaze fixed on Boa Hancock opposite her.
"Shedding tears in front of us is allowed."
"But questioning our Master is absolutely not!"
"Even if you have doubts about us, it doesn't matter."
"No... not... I didn't..."
Overwhelming pressure swept towards Boa Hancock.
This astonishing aura,
Completely stunned Boa Hancock, who was sobbing.
The situation seemed to be getting out of hand.
No, this was a deadly crisis.
Just being locked onto by the aura,
Boa Hancock felt difficulty breathing,
As if life was draining away.
It was terrifying,
This power made her tremble.
"That's enough."
Wang Haoyu looked at Boa Hancock, who was wearing a bathrobe and.
Slumped on the patterned giant python.
And waved his hand with a light chuckle.
If Liang Bing continued to exert pressure,
Boa Hancock's bathrobe might even slip off.
Such an awkward scene,
Wang Haoyu really didn't want to see more of it.
After all, the beauties around him were countless,
He simply didn't have time to get to know each one.
Both in quantity and quality,
They had reached an astonishing level.
"I'm sorry! I'm very sorry!"
Boa Hancock, who was gasping for breath on the ground,
Apologized repeatedly to Wang Haoyu in panic.
Under duress,
She had no choice but to bow her head and admit her mistake.
In a World where strength is clearly divided,
The weak must always apologize to the strong.
Especially someone like Boa Hancock,
Who longed for the protection of the strong.
Accompanied by sobs,
Tears kept rolling down.
"Enough, no need to cry, and no need to be sad."
"Your thoughts are too simple, even a bit naive."
"The World Government, which you see as insurmountable,"
"To us, to Master,"
"Is merely a small pebble on our journey."
"Just crush it."
Goddess Leina sighed softly and spoke slowly.
If she didn't speak up soon,
She was worried she would truly be treated as invisible,
Degenerating into a dispensable guard role.
This was absolutely not what Leina wanted.
"Oh?"
Noticing Leina interjecting,
Liang Bing, who had originally planned a double act,
A meaningful smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
So Leina also couldn't stand this feeling?
How interesting!
Hehehe!
"A stone blocking the path? Just crush it?"
Hearing Leina say this, Boa Hancock slowly looked up at her.
Dazzling light.
Like the scorching sun above the firmament.
That was an existence like a deity.
"What do you think? You only know that within the Four Seas is the end of the World, but do you know what lies beyond the Four Seas?"
"It's a vaster heaven and earth. And do you know what lies beyond heaven and earth? It's the boundless starry sky!"
"Within the galaxy, you are not the only civilization!"
Liang Bing pouted, saying to Boa Hancock with a hint of teasing.
Who doesn't know how to play the bad cop?
This is my specialty!
With a devil's unique mischievousness, Liang Bing explained with a smile.
"Beyond the Four Seas is heaven and earth? Beyond heaven and earth is the vast starry sky?"
"Starry sky? Those twinkling stars in the firmament?"
Boa Hancock's eyes were full of bewilderment, feeling her thoughts couldn't keep up at all.
This was truly too difficult to understand.
"Little sister, you just need to remember: my Master's territory is hundreds of times larger than your World!"
"Beyond the heavens you look up to, the Expeditionary Fleet is stationed!"
"This fleet isn't large, just five formations. Any one of them could flatten this World dozens of times!"
Queen Hexi explained with a gentle smile.
Indeed.
Umbrella's sphere of influence far exceeded this World.
The conquered civilizations were countless.
Some civilizations ruled several or even more than ten Planets.
Therefore, Umbrella controlled multiple Planets under its command.
Although most were mining Planets.
Umbrella never cared about the type of Planet.
In short, you are all third-class citizens!
Thoroughly third-class citizens.
Even those slightly rigid Tyrants and other biochemical soldiers are second-class citizens.
True first-class citizens?
Only Umbrella's core members.
Without a doubt.
This World will eventually fall under the Master's command, becoming new third-class citizens.
"A territory hundreds of times larger than this World? Any single fleet could sweep through here dozens of times?"
"This..."
Alright.
Hearing such news, like from a storyteller, Boa Hancock felt numb.
Or rather, she really didn't know how to comprehend this? How to deal with it?
Hancock was indeed lost.
Does such a powerful fleet truly exist in the World?
"Enough, stop teasing her!"
Wang Haoyu gently waved his hand.
He didn't care at all about Liang Bing playing the villain.
Wang Haoyu stood up, gazed at Boa Hancock, and said solemnly: "What is incredible in your eyes is precisely the opposite for us!"
"We possess unparalleled power, and this disparity is like an ordinary sea fish facing a super-giant Sea King—"
"Destined to become food!"
Can you understand this explanation?
Wang Haoyu tried his best to explain using metaphors familiar to this World.
The fleet's strength was beyond doubt.
But currently, the fleet was mining on an alien Planet to replenish energy.
Deploying the fleet for battle was not impossible, just a bit troublesome.
"So strong..."
This explanation left Boa Hancock in a trance.
The difference between an ordinary sea fish and a super-giant Sea King?
"Can you protect the entire Nine Snake Island? We are willing to offer our loyalty and faith!"
After understanding the key point, Boa Hancock immediately turned and respectfully knelt before Wang Haoyu.
How strong were Wang Haoyu and the others exactly?
Boa Hancock didn't fully know.
Did a fleet exist that could overturn the World? She hadn't witnessed it herself.
But these four people before her!
Each radiated an aura no weaker than the Four Emperors.
Such power was more than enough to protect Nine Snake Island!
Most importantly, in the eyes of this monarch, revered by three goddesses, the ordinary women of Nine Snake Island were probably not even as good as slaves.
Indeed, with such stunning goddesses accompanying him, who would care about ordinary women?
Boa Hancock deliberated repeatedly and decided to lead the entire Nine Snake Island to submit to this powerful individual.
She didn't want to get involved in the conflicts between the Marines and pirates.
Especially this time's Seven Warlords of the Sea summons.
For some reason, Boa Hancock had a premonition that this incident was extraordinary!
"You are indeed remarkably astute."
Liang Bing revealed a devilish smile, a flicker of approval in her eyes.
This Empress was indeed intelligent.
When unable to contend, she chose to join.
Such a strategy was excellent!
"Boa Hancock! What are you doing?"
Old Hag angrily burst into the main hall.
In her opinion, although this Queen of Nine Snake Island held a high position, she still lacked responsibility.
Her actions were often too willful!
"Don't be so nosy!"
Chapter 119. Chapter 119. The Empress's expression suddenly darkened, and she flipped over, sending the old woman flying out of the hall with a kick.
The attack looked fierce, but it actually contained protective power.
"Wait."
Wang Haoyu leaned on the armrest of the throne and said coldly, "If you wish to receive the protection of my Umbrella,"
"The only path is complete submission."
He would never accept protection based on empty words.
Either submit and become a member of Umbrella, or pay an equivalent price.
Dreaming of getting protection for free?
Don't even mention it!
In the past, Wang Haoyu might have willfully agreed.
But after becoming the Supreme Ruler of the Marvel Universe, such naive thoughts had long since vanished.
Everything must prioritize the interests of Umbrella.
Willfulness must ultimately come at a price.
"Submission? Becoming a subject of Umbrella?"
As soon as he said this, the Empress and the old woman simultaneously looked up, their eyes filled with suspicion, staring directly at Wang Haoyu.
(After becoming members of Umbrella, would they still be subjects of Nine Snake Island?
This was an unavoidable choice when facing an absolute powerhouse.)
"The Nine Snake Island Kingdom can continue to exist within the Umbrella Civilization system," Wang Haoyu said, a faint light flickering in his eyes, "and when my fleet embarks on expeditions into the stars, this World can even be handed over to Nine Snake Island to manage."
Let Nine Snake Island govern the World?
Old Hag showed a bitter smile: "You must be joking, sir. Nine Snake Island hardly has that kind of strength."
Deep in her eyes, however, a hint of yearning flashed.
Celestial Dragons, dominating the entire sea?
Everyone harbors a beast in their heart, and Boa Hancock was no exception.
The Empress was stunned.
If they replaced the Celestial Dragons... wouldn't Nine Snake Island become the target of all?
Thinking of the Celestial Dragons' repulsive faces, she suddenly shook her head violently.
"You don't want to rule?" Wang Haoyu smiled playfully.
"Becoming a Celestial Dragon means you will eventually be replaced."
Hancock secretly glanced at Wang Haoyu.
If Umbrella left, all that awaited Nine Snake Island would be a new cycle of reincarnation.
"A smart choice."
Wang Haoyu turned and stepped out of the great hall.
"Since you refused, I will unceremoniously take this World."
He stood before the palace gates, observing the ancient and vibrant capital city: "It's truly classical and elegant... but unfortunately too dilapidated."
How much poverty was hidden behind this?
"Hehe, so what does Master plan to do?" Looking at Wang Haoyu's demeanor, Liang Bing, like a Little Demon, asked with a giggle.
Her bright smile caused Boa Hancock's heart to tremble slightly.
"Liang Bing, I have a task for you."
Jiang Shuihan turned his head to look at the Little Demon beside him.
"Oh?"
"What task, Master? I don't want to leave you!"
Liang Bing looked at Wang Haoyu alertly, a sudden ominous premonition rising in her heart.
"It's simple. Capture all the Nine Star Level powerhouses in the World."
"Searching for them one by one is too troublesome. And I don't want them causing trouble."
"Why slowly probe with one finger when a problem can be solved with one punch?" Wang Haoyu said, smiling slightly at Boa Hancock.
"Master, there are too many powerhouses above Nine Stars. I can't handle it alone!"
"I sensed hundreds just now, not to mention those land destroyer level experts."
"There are at least dozens of land destroyer level experts!" The Little Demon Liang Bing couldn't help but complain.
So many powerhouses to catch, especially those Nine Star Giant Beasts under the sea?
Her thought process was always so unconventional.
"What are you thinking?"
Wang Haoyu casually flicked her forehead, making Liang Bing squat down, covering her head.
"Stop trying to be cute! You're a Little Demon; if you act cute, how will the other cute creatures survive?" Wang Haoyu was speechless at her attempt to look adorable.
"How about this: Leina and Liang Bing go together to catch people."
"We'll ignore the undersea Giant Beasts for now. We can study them later, and if suitable, we can proceed with large-scale farming."
Wang Haoyu turned and instructed Leina.
"Understood, Master."
Leina never refused any of Wang Haoyu's orders.
Looking at the Little Demon Girl Liang Bing, who was playing and acting spoiled beside Wang Haoyu, Leina grabbed her by the back collar without a word and flew outside!
"Wah, ya, ya—Let go of me! Leina! Put me down!" Liang Bing, who was being carried away upside down, struggled indignantly.
This Heaven and Earth was indeed vast and boundless.
But even if the two of them went to capture the targets, it would still take considerable time.
For Liang Bing, she truly did not want to leave Wang Haoyu's side.
However, under Leina's brute force dragging, the Little Demon was ultimately forcibly removed.
Unwilling?
She had no choice but to comply!
Faced with the dominant Leina, Liang Bing could only finally submit obediently.
"Let's first do some simple renovations here."
Looking around the area that the Nine Snake Pirate Group had already cleared, a subtle smile appeared on Wang Haoyu's lips.
For some reason, looking at the scene before him, he felt the urge to take out the Base Vehicle and show off his skills.
"I'll listen to you entirely!"
"As long as you're happy!"
After Liang Bing and Leina left, Hexi and Queen Keisha, who remained behind, exchanged a knowing look.
They shrugged lazily.
Whether it was bathing the area in blood or renovating the environment, neither task required any effort from the two of them.
At most, it was just trivial work disproportionate to their strength.
"Mm."
Wang Haoyu nodded slightly, turning his gaze toward Boa Hancock, who had been waiting quietly for a long time.
"Please follow me."
Adhering to the etiquette of hospitality, Hancock immediately led the group toward Nine Snake Valley.
This secluded valley was the holy land where the residents of Nine Snake Island worshipped their gods.
The islanders were originally skeptical about the existence of deities.
But after witnessing Hexi and the others, Hancock had to re-examine that belief.
"Here will do."
After casually scanning the area for a moment, Wang Haoyu casually blasted out an Energy Beam.
The dazzling light exploded, forcibly carving out a vast space of over ten thousand square meters within the rock face.
This hundred-by-hundred meter area was roughly the size of two standard football fields.
In this boundless Heaven and Earth, it was nothing remarkable.
Boa Hancock's expression showed slight astonishment, and her eyebrows trembled gently.
Accompanied by a roar, Wang Haoyu raised his hand and summoned a Gigantic Base Vehicle; its steel body, spanning tens of meters, stood erect before everyone.
"Initiating System! Starting scan for authorization holders!"
"Highest Authorization Holder detected: Wang Haoyu."
"Level One Authorization Holder retrieved: Hexi."
"Level One Authorization Holder found: Keisha."
"Authorization transferred. Highest Authorization belongs to: Wang Haoyu."
"Commander Sir, please give your instructions." The electronic voice asked respectfully.
After scanning the environment, this Red Alert Base Vehicle proactively requested instructions from Wang Haoyu.
Boa Hancock stared at the talking behemoth before her, her face filled with confusion, completely unable to understand what was happening.
"Immediately execute the three basic construction tasks, and send her to the Barracks to receive Genetic Optimization." Wang Haoyu pointed to Boa Hancock beside him and commanded.
This arrangement was specifically to eliminate the scar on her back—Wang Haoyu had long noticed how much she cared about that scar.
"Instruction confirmed. Initiating Basic Construction process."
"Umbrella Base Vehicle deployment procedure started."
"Construction of Mining Facility engineering begun."
"Magnetic Energy Power Plant construction started."
"Barracks construction engineering in progress."
As the Base Vehicle's mechanical voice announced, Nine Snake Island began to undergo marvelous changes.
High above the sea level, Liang Bing grabbed Leina, who was trying to accelerate her flight, and showed a playful smile: "Hey, what should we do next?"
"What do you mean by that?" Leina raised an eyebrow warily.
Liang Bing, who was called the "Little Demon," was not famous for nothing.
"I just feel that blindly searching like this is a waste of time." Liang Bing paused, implying something specific.
"So your plan is..." Leina looked skeptical.
"Here is our arrangement: We currently sense about dozens of land destroyer level powerhouses, and capturing all of them is difficult. I suggest adopting a division of labor strategy—sixty percent of the targets are concentrated in the same area, and the remaining forty percent are scattered on the periphery. We should capture all targets above the Nine Star Level and complete the roundup as quickly as possible. What do you think?" Liang Bing smiled as she looked at Leina.
"Fine, I'll take charge of the sixty percent group." Leina finished speaking and flew toward the Red Line, where the powerhouses of Marine Headquarters, Marineford, and the Underwater Prison were concentrated.
"Tsk, she runs fast. What a busybody." As Liang Bing spread her Wings of Angel and glided across the sky, Leina looked at her retreating figure with slight helplessness.
Although speed was not the Sun Goddess's strong suit, since she had chosen, she had to complete the mission.
"This is the gathering place for land destroyer level powerhouses?" Leina hovered above the Red Line, her expression solemn.
In her eyes, the power to destroy a continent was nothing remarkable—she possessed Stellar Leveldestructive power.
"Then I'll take them all!" Leina, transforming into a streak of light, rushed directly toward the continent.
The dazzling light cut through the clear sky, and even the pirates on the Sabaody Archipelago saw this streak of light that sparked countless conjectures.
"What level of powerhouse is that?" Silvers Rayleigh, drinking cloudy liquor, felt his pupils contract.
Although he could sense the presence of a powerhouse within the streak of light, he couldn't determine their specific strength.
The only thing he was sure of was that the mysterious powerhouse's destination was the core of the World Government—the Red Line.
The Celestial Dragons' territory!
"Don't let there be another Tiger!"
Looking at the light that streaked across the sky, Rayleigh squinted his eyes.
Another Tiger.
For this World, it was undoubtedly a massive shock!
Marineford.
"Old man, did you feel that?" Fleet Admiral Sengoku, who was reviewing documents, suddenly looked up and shouted at Garp, who was crunching Senbei in the living room.
"Yeah, I felt it. So what?" Garp didn't even lift his head, continuing to shove snacks into his mouth.
Completely indifferent!
Utterly reckless!
That streak of light?
What did it have to do with him!
"Don't forget our identities!" Sengoku's temples throbbed.
They were the Marines!
"I know. But so what? They flew over from the sky! Which of us Marines can fly?"
"They didn't take the sea route anyway, so we can just take our sweet time getting there."
"If the World Government wants to hold us accountable, they'll need evidence!" Garp replied casually.
"People will die! Tens of thousands will die!" Sengoku's pupils contracted.
This thoughtless old man?
Simple-minded Garp?
What a joke!
That guy was clearly pretending to be foolish!
Letting that streak of light cause trouble... would truly lead to rivers of blood!
"Yes, people will die." Garp, unusually serious, nodded.
The two understood each other tacitly—one was thinking about a few Celestial Dragons losing their lives.
The other was worried about countless civilians suffering.
"Be on guard!!!"
"Enemy attack!"
"Quickly contact the World Government!"
"Protect the Celestial Dragons and evacuate them!"
Since the catastrophe of Slave Liberation instigated by Fish-Man Tiger, the Red Line had long since been equipped with a completely new Garrison Legion.
The current Holy Land Guards were all like startled birds.
Their greatest fear was that if an unexpected situation occurred, the entire team would face utter disaster!
Accompanied by continuous roars.
Chapter 120 Chapter 120
Several CP Agentss in black suits used Moonwalk to soar into the sky, straight into the clouds.
On the ground, fully armed Holy Land Garrison troops stood ready.
All kinds of heavy weapons had already been set up!
"Shoot!"
"Fire!"
"Launch!"
Amidst earth-shattering shouts, the Holy Land Garrison's artillery fired in unison.
In an instant,
Deafening explosions echoed across the sky!
All firepower was aimed at the Sun Goddess Leina, who was speeding through the air!
"How annoying!"
Looking at the overwhelming barrage of cannon fire, Leina frowned in displeasure.
These steel cannonballs, in her eyes,
Were as insignificant as bothersome dust!
With a soft cry,
A dazzling golden light screen suddenly unfolded,
Blocking all incoming cannonballs dozens of meters away!
Whether heavy artillery or other weapons,
They were all immobilized before this golden barrier!
Witnessing the overwhelming power displayed by Leina,
The CP Agentss who had soared into the sky let out angry roars:
"Kill this intruder!"
For the CP Agentss,
The intruder's identity and motive were irrelevant;
Only annihilation was the correct course of action!
Guarding the Holy Land was their sacred duty,
And no one was allowed to breach it!
"You guys are really noisy!"
Leina looked at the continuously swarming CP Agentss,
Her delicate brows slightly furrowed.
She was clearly annoyed.
As she whispered softly,
Dozens of golden light beams suddenly burst forth!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Before the CP Agentss could react,
These light beams had already annihilated them all!
While the Umbrella Civilization indeed craved strong individuals,
Even elites with an average strength of five stars or more.
However, in this plane,
The Umbrella Civilization had not yet truly begun its conquest!
((
In Leina's perception, this World was inherently a foreign land.
Killing was merely a trivial matter to her; who could stop her?
She had always been this arrogant!
With Wang Haoyu's indulgence, Leina acted without scruples!
Even if she and Liang Bing turned this World upside down, Wang Haoyu would only smile faintly.
Reprimand? Absolutely not!
To Wang Haoyu, the Pirate World was merely a place to relive old dreams, holding no substantial value.
"Get lost!"
Leina's cold shout instantly disintegrated the CP members who tried to block her!
Her figure streaked like lightning, heading straight for the core area of the Celestial Dragons on the Red Line.
A mere Celestial Dragon's nest?
Leina disdained it completely!
Her goal was only one—the quasi-Planet Destroyer-level powerhouse presiding over the World Government!
This was the only being she found close to Planet Destroyer-level after scanning with her void engine.
"Dare to take another step!"
"Intruders here will be killed without mercy!"
"State your origin, woman!"
Just as Leina was about to break through the defense line, several masked figures led a few elders to block her path.
"Heh, nine Continent Destroyer-level experts..."
"Truly lining up to die."
Scanning the group of black-robed elders in suits, Leina sneered dismissively.
Too weak, simply Vulnerable!
"What do you mean by 'Continent Destroyer-level' in your mouth?"
"State your identity and purpose!"
"If you cannot provide a reasonable explanation, you will not leave today!"
The Five Elders, who govern the World, questioned coldly. They guarded the Red Line, bearing unknown missions.
The mysterious domain behind the Guardian!
"Never mind, all of you come at me! I'm in a hurry!"
Leina gently shook her head, her neck bones making a crisp cracking sound.
The sound of her stretching her muscles was clearly audible.
"Presumptuous!"
"Arrogant girl! You will surely be punished today!"
Fury ignited!
Even the Five Elders, who were usually composed, could not hide their rage at this moment.
Two elders led two Celestial Dragon powerhouses directly towards Leina.
Nine top combatants surpassing Admirals—
This was the profound foundation of the World Government!
Even as the Great Pirate Era stirred up chaos, the World Government remained calm.
Because they wielded absolute power!
"Tch!"
Leina responded with disdain.
Mad dogs barking? Why bother biting back!
She inherited Wang Haoyu's style—
If a dog lunges, hit it hard with a stick and stew it into a pot of fragrant meat!
Facing the siege of four Continent Destroyer-level powerhouses, Leina remained motionless.
She casually tapped her long spear four times, not even raising her battle shield.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The spear tip cut through the air, and the four powerhouses instantly fell to their knees from the clouds!
The remaining five gasped.
Terrifying!
What a terrifying existence!
Especially the surviving Five Elders—
They knew their comrades' strength well.
Yet Leina merely flicked her spear... and their people were wiped out?
Simply absurd!
Despite their anger, the three Five Elders were trembling with fear.
How could this battle be won?
There was only one more person than the previous four!
Could they win in such a situation?
If the first two who rushed forward hadn't been Five Elders, perhaps they could have tried to fight with the Five Elders' tacit understanding!
But now, those who understood cooperation—were no longer there!
How could they fight?
"Still alive, but dying soon."
Leina didn't even bother to look at the four Continent Destroyer-level powerhouses on the ground, who were like dead dogs, and whispered indifferently.
To her, life and death made little difference.
After all—they were all manufactured!
"Bastard! What exactly do you want to do?"
"Don't you know your actions will destroy the entire World!"
Unable to contend with Leina's power, the Five Elders could only resort to moral high ground to suppress her.
"What does that have to do with me?"
What does it have to do with me?
Leina's lips curled into a cold sneer, completely unconcerned by the Five Elders' questioning.
If this World was not incorporated by the Umbrella Civilization—
Whether it lived or died, what did it matter to her?
"Hmph!"
Seeing Leina's indifference, the Five Elders couldn't help but let out a cold snort.
This muffled sound was full of anger and unwillingness!
To dare to do such a thing to the World... unforgivable!
"You all—should get lost."
Before she finished speaking!
The sword-wielding Five Elder's heart suddenly tightened.
Not good!
Danger!
He instinctively dodged sideways—
But it was too late.
A golden light suddenly burst from his chest!
As the light exploded, this Five Elder collapsed on the spot!
In just one second, the other few also fell to the ground!
"Hey, come down and clean up the mess."
Leina glanced at the seven Continent Destroyer-level powerhouses scattered on the ground, then looked up at the empty sky.
She knew—
A Expeditionary Force destroyer was hovering above.
Its mission was simple: clear the battlefield!
Seven-Nine-Six
Leina alone couldn't take all nine Continent Destroyer-level powerhouses below.
Would she have to drag them along like candied haws?
The Umbrella Civilization would never do something so embarrassing!
"Understood, Commander Leina!"
A reply came from within the destroyer. Several fighter jets escorted a transport plane down to the ground from the hangar.
The sudden black dots in the sky attracted the attention of the natives. Leina nodded gently.
She knew the reason—the effects of optical camouflage and stealth coating kept the warship invisible.
"Next, it's time to deal with you in this secret realm."
Looking at the suspected secret realm not far away, Leina pursed her lips and stepped inside.
After Leina left, the aerial transport plane projected a light beam, bringing the nine Continent Destroyer-level powerhouses into its cabin.
Witnessing this scene, the surrounding Holy Land Garrison and CP organization finally couldn't hold back.
We can't deal with that mysterious powerful enemy, but are we helpless against these steel creations?
Unfortunately, that was indeed the case.
Any single fighter jet possessed firepower capable of destroying cities or even islands. At this moment, four fighter jets were escorting this transport plane.
Not only that—
Although these were the lowest-grade fighter jets and were not endowed with the Spark, their loaded combat programs and remotely controlled intelligent AI could take over the battle the moment it began!
Ultimately, the Holy Land Garrison and CP organization could only watch helplessly as the transport plane took away the nine Continent Destroyer-level powerhouses.
This was a great humiliation.
The enemy attacked the Red Line, but instead of attacking the Celestial Dragons active on the periphery, they went straight for the core area!
On the Moby Dick
"Oh dear, how disheveled you are."
Looking at the Moby Dick warship, which was about the size of a troop transport, the mischievous Little Demon Liang Bing casually floated down from the sky.
She didn't even bat an eyelid at the pirates below, who were facing a formidable enemy.
In her eyes, these so-called pirates were nothing more than insignificant ants.
"Alert!"
"All hands to battle stations!"
"Who exactly are you?"
"What are you here for?"
"Protect Pops!"
Amidst the roars of Marco and Jozu, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates rushed onto the deck.
Even knowing they were outmatched, they vowed to protect their beloved Whitebeard Pops to the death.
"Everyone, retreat! This is not an opponent you can handle!"
Whitebeard's heart trembled as he looked at Liang Bing, who had descended from the sky with a frivolous smile on her face.
This seemingly harmless woman.
Could she still smile?
What terrifying pressure!
Perhaps his crew couldn't sense it, but Whitebeard clearly realized—in front of this powerhouse, he was simply no match!
The gap in strength even surpassed the chasm between a Marine recruit and an Admiral.
"Pops?!"
Marco looked at Whitebeard in disbelief.
This was completely unlike Pops' usual demeanor!
"Retreat! I need to speak with this esteemed guest alone."
Whitebeard gazed solemnly at Liang Bing, no longer bothering with his anxious children.
This overwhelming power forced him to be extremely cautious.
"Pops... take care."
Marco gritted his teeth and forcefully led the other companions off the deck.
This duel belonged only to Whitebeard and this mysterious visitor.
"Could you tell this old man..."
Whitebeard sat in his exclusive chair, asking in a deep voice:
"What is your purpose in coming here, esteemed guest?"
798 Base
"Me coming here? Hmm... our leader told me to take a few people back."
The mischievous Little Demon Liang Bing playfully blinked, her slender finger tapping her red lips, revealing an innocent and harmless expression.
This demeanor, however, made Whitebeard's expression even more solemn.
"leader? Celestial Dragons? Or other forces? To make a powerhouse like you submit..."
Liang Bing suddenly dropped her smile and said coldly: "My leader is neither a Celestial Dragon nor some noble. No one in this World is worthy of being my Master, not even fit to carry my shoes!"
Whitebeard unconsciously tightened his grip on his Bisento, cold sweat, which he hadn't felt in a long time, seeping into his palm.
Chapter 121 Chapter 121
"However, you got one thing right—the strength of our Leader truly exceeds the cognitive limits of this World."
Liang Bing leaned against the railing and chuckled, "We could flatten your World hundreds of times just by sending a random fleet."
"A fleet like that... does it really exist?" Whitebeard's brow furrowed deeper.
"Absolutely true~" Liang Bing shook her finger, "Just like the stars in the sky, just because you haven't seen them doesn't mean they don't exist."
"So, what is the purpose of your visit?" Whitebeard asked in a deep voice.
He wanted to know what her purpose was for coming here!
"Me? Purpose? Oh, I remember now! The mission Master gave me was to capture every powerhouse in this World whose strength exceeds Nine-Star and bring them back!"
Liang Bing looked like a goofy person, suddenly slapped her forehead, as if waking up from a long dream.
She earnestly explained to Whitebeard.
"Powerhouses above Nine-Star! To be honest, I'm a little surprised! Besides you, there isn't a single qualified person on your ship? What a pity—"
That look of pity made Whitebeard's mustache tremble.
Everyone on the ship is trash?
Although he didn't know the standard for Nine-Star, Whitebeard understood—his crew members were being looked down upon!
He should have been furious, but a trace of relief welled up in his heart.
His sons are fine... wait a minute—
"The person you want to capture, is me?"
Whitebeard suddenly looked up and roared.
What a joke! Ace hasn't been rescued yet, the score with Blackbeard hasn't been settled, he absolutely cannot leave!
"That's right~"
Liang Bing smiled and moved closer.
"Old man, we've talked for so long, why don't you obediently come with me?"
Speaking the most terrifying words in a sweet voice, that was certainly her style.
"Dream on! This old man still has things to do! Gurararara—"
Whitebeard stood up laughing loudly, his massive body towering like an iron tower.
Previously polite, now he wouldn't budge an inch!
"Ugh, this is so annoying..."
Liang Bing sighed, holding her forehead.
Fighting is the most troublesome thing!
"Gurararara! Little girl, apologize to your Master for me—this old man is busy!"
(
Although his smile was hearty, Whitebeard's expression suddenly turned grave.
The person before him emitted a suffocating aura of danger; that oppressive feeling made him tightly knit his brows.
"Is that so? Then I'll just take you directly. It was part of the plan anyway." Liang Bing shrugged her delicate shoulders and lazily stood up from the side of the ship.
This movement made Whitebeard grip his great blade tighter, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Old man, are you scared?" A charming whisper suddenly pierced his eardrum.
Danger!
The instant this thought flashed through his mind, Whitebeard found his body suddenly uncontrollable, crashing heavily onto the deck with a loud noise.
Looking at the fallen giant, Liang Bing curled her lip dismissively: "Don't try to act tough when you're old, you might get hurt~"
She snapped her fingers toward the sky and walked with elegant steps toward the outside of the ship.
Whitebeard looked confusedly at her departing back—wasn't she supposed to capture me?
Suddenly, the roar of engines entered his ears. Glancing out of the corner of his eye, several fighter jets abruptly appeared.
Things are bad!
Inside the cabin, Marco and the others were still hesitating. Although they felt the surge of Dad's aura, they saw no signs of combat and received no call, so they could only wait inside the cabin—after all, no one believed anyone could silently take Dad away.
"Is this the place?" Leina looked at the dreamlike sea of flowers before her and pursed her lips. This beautiful scenery took her breath away.
However, Leina detected a trace of aura like rotting deadwood.
As the Sun Goddess, Leina, who illuminates all things, couldn't help but frown.
"It's time to wake up, isn't it?"
She whispered softly, her gaze directed toward the sleeping figure within the sea of flowers.
A wisp of divine power flowed from her fingertips.
Amidst the shimmering light—
The figure deep within the sea of flowers opened its eyes.
The supreme ruler of the World, the manipulator behind the Five Elders, the true sovereign of the Celestial Dragons.
Im.
"Who dares trespass?"
Im, seated on the Void Throne, looked towards the graceful figure at the edge of the sea of flowers,
A rare look of confusion appeared in his eyes.
Is this a dream not yet over?
Or has the mortal World undergone a drastic change?
When did such a powerhouse appear?
"Are you the strongest in this realm?"
Leina stepped forward, and fierce flames blossomed with her footsteps.
The magnificent sea of flowers crackled and withered in the Sun True Fire.
Im was still lost in a trance: "The strongest? Perhaps I once was."
During his eight hundred years of long slumber, he had briefly awakened several times,
But at this moment, he felt an unprecedented confusion.
"Come with me to see Master." Leina's long spear suddenly pointed directly at the Throne.
This matter-of-fact declaration,
Instantly ignited Im's fury.
"Master? Are you worthy of having one?"
The air around the Throne suddenly twisted.
In Im's perception,
How could there be an existence in this World that surpassed him?
Yet this arrogant person before him,
Dared to use such a commanding tone... Unforgivable!
As the chilling killing intent swept across the sea of flowers,
A faint light of regret flashed in Leina's eyes.
It seems I still can't take him away! I'll have to knock him out first!
Leina sighed softly, quickly brandishing the long spear in her hand amidst Im's furious roar.
The spear tip traced three streaks of cold light in the air.
The next second, Im, who had charged forward, fell to the ground just as expected!
He lowered his head in disbelief, looking at his profusely bleeding wounds.
All the strength in his body was rapidly draining away.
"I... actually lost?"
This thought plunged Im into unprecedented confusion.
Anger erupted like a volcano, but it couldn't change the fact of his defeat.
"Take him away."
Leina didn't even look at Im on the ground, ordering the sky above.
Transport planes slowly descended, escorted by fighter jet formations.
On Nine Snake Island, Boa Hancock stared dumbfounded at the continuously transforming Base Core.
What is going on?
"Want to give it a try? This place can remove the brand on your back." Wang Haoyu stood beside her, smiling brightly, "The price is eternal allegiance to the Umbrella Civilization."
Watching the Automatic Mining Vehicles shuttle back and forth, the Empress felt it was strange, but she was genuinely tempted.
"Mr. Wang, may this old woman try first?" Old Hag suddenly spoke up.
"Go ahead." Wang Haoyu raised his hand elegantly.
"Thank you, Honored Master." Old Hag bowed respectfully and strode toward the Barracks.
When the Base Vehicle rose from the ground on Nine Snake Island, all the Amazonian female warriors on the island were alarmed!
"What is that thing?"
"Can't recognize it, but it looks like a mechanical creation?"
"Strange, why isn't any steam coming out?"
The female warriors hiding in the jungle whispered to each other. In the Pirate World, where the Technology Tree had gone awry, no one had ever seen such a futuristic technological product. Looking at the constantly transforming Base Vehicle, everyone was filled with doubt.
"Volunteer detected, initiating genetic modification."
When Old Hag walked into this silver Barracks, she was stunned by the sight before her. Laser energy flowed across the futuristic silver-white walls, and the entire space exuded a sci-fi atmosphere. Just as she was looking around, a cold electronic voice suddenly sounded.
"Who? Who is speaking?" Old Hag vigilantly looked around.
Mechanical arms lifted her up without explanation. Although with her strength, this level of mechanical device was inferior even to a Navy Captain, remembering that this was Wang Haoyu's territory and recalling his nonchalant attitude, she ultimately did not dare to act rashly.
The moment she was stuffed into the Nutrient Capsule, Old Hag's eyebrows nearly jumped off. The instant the hatch closed with a "click," a pale green liquid suddenly surged out.
"Oh dear!" She frantically held her breath, flailing fruitlessly in the rapidly filling nutrient fluid. The liquid quickly filled the entire capsule, completely engulfing her.
While Nuo Wang Zhao struggled to move inside, Old Hag was able to freely roll and swim within it.
As Old Hag experimented, she found that the pale green liquid in the Nutrient Capsule was not only harmless but allowed her to breathe freely. So, she simply allowed the liquid to flood into her body.
Outside the Barracks, although Boa Hancock verbally disliked Old Hag, she couldn't hide the worry in her eyes—even though Old Hag was sometimes annoying, she was still a respected senior. If something happened to her in the Barracks, Hancock would blame herself.
"Are you worried about an accident?" Wang Haoyu sat on the Throne casually created by Kaisha, swirling a glass of red wine as he asked with a smile.
"No, Honored Master My Lord!" Hancock hastily denied. She knew well that questioning Wang Haoyuwas courting death. After all, Wang Haoyu's strength, along with the two Goddesses under his command, was enough to destroy Nine Snake Island dozens of times before help could arrive.
Although this willful Queen acted impulsively, she could always discern the stakes at critical moments—an instinct honed by surviving the Celestial Dragons.
"Worry is only human nature." Wang Haoyu shook his head and chuckled softly; Hancock's clumsy lie was completely transparent to him.
"Please forgive me, Honored Master!" Hancock immediately knelt down. Seeing this, the Amazonianfemale warriors lurking in the jungle all revealed expressions of astonishment.
(
Flames of anger burned in the chests of the Nine Snake Island female warriors.
However, when the two Princesses—Boa Hancock's younger sisters—issued the command, these warriors had to suppress their rage.
Don't interfere with the Queen's plan?
What absurd plan would make their supreme Queen kneel before that man?
The warriors' knuckles, gripping their longbows, turned white, almost breaking their weapons.
"Rise." Wang Haoyu said softly, "As a King, you should not easily kneel."
In his eyes, this sea area was merely a corner of the chessboard. To fully control it would not only consume the power of the Umbrella Civilization but also divert his own energy. Perhaps cultivating an agent was the wiser move.
"As you command, Master!" The tears that almost spilled from Boa Hancock's eyes now held the joy of being respected. This consideration moved her far more than power.
Meanwhile, on the lands of Wano Country.
Liang Bing gazed at the enormous creature below, her red lips curling slightly.
"The size is acceptable."
If this Giant Elephant were placed on a cosmic scale, it would naturally be insignificant, but among Planet-level creatures, it was rare.
"Gurararara!" Whitebeard, standing on the flying device, laughed heartily. Having been treated in the Medical Capsule, he was revitalized, and the Grass-Cutting Sword in his hand shone with cold light. "Is the little girl stunned already?"
"Boring." Liang Bing curled her lips in disdain. The newly revitalized Sea Emperor beside her was currently planning to find the traitor Teach to settle old scores. Each preoccupied with their own thoughts, the two headed toward Zou.
Liang Bing gently shook her head, stating indifferently that she felt nothing.
Creatures that rely on the Planet's surface for survival are truly insignificant.
"How... this is illogical!" Whitebeard, inside the flying cabin, frowned in thought.
How could she be indifferent to such shocking news? It was truly unbelievable.
"Is this World very big?"
"Of course it's huge! The ocean is magnificent, the dream stage for men!"
"But among the stars, there are at least thousands of Starry Sky Behemoths capable of swallowing this realm whole," Liang Bing said carelessly.
"Absurd!" Whitebeard immediately retorted.
Thousands of monsters that can swallow Worlds? That's simply a fantasy!
"Just because you haven't seen them doesn't mean they don't exist."
Liang Bing couldn't be bothered to explain further.
This old man is truly stubborn.
Chapter 122 Chapter 122
"Let me see the experts above Nine-Star level... one, two, three... and there's a land destroyer level one. But... what should I do with this elephant? It doesn't count as a deep-sea creature, does it?"
Those top-tier experts didn't interest Liang Bing in the slightest.
Instead, it was the fate of the Zou Giant Elephant that worried her.
"You want to take Zou?" Whitebeard was dumbfounded.
This behemoth feeds on Sea Kings. How could it possibly be taken away?
"Forget it, transporting it back is too much trouble. Since this big idiot lives in the sea, let's just consider it a marine creature."
Liang Bing made a simple and crude decision.
As she lightly raised her finger, a stream of light shot straight toward Zou Island.
"Zou is connected to Wano Country... that's Kaido's territory. Little girl, how long do you plan to take it?"
Looking at Liang Bing as she left, Whitebeard muttered carelessly, pulling out a timer to fiddle with. In his heart, this little girl could indeed defeat him in a single move.
Even though Kaido is known as the Immortal Body, he definitely wouldn't last long against her. Whitebeard was completely confident in this—if he didn't have this confidence, how could he compete with Kaido and Charlotte Linlin for the position of Four Emperors? Not to mention subtly becoming the head of the Four Emperors.
These were all solid battle achievements!
Whitebeard, sitting on the flying device, looked composed. Running away? Don't be naive. Since that girl could instantly kill him, she could naturally let him run three thousand meters before making a move. What puzzled Whitebeard even more was her elusive ability—it was extremely bizarre!
"Hic! Who are you?" In the dim hall, the behemoth Kaido, submerged in a pile of wine bottles, stared at Liang Bing as she pushed open the door.
"A drunkard? Trouble!" Liang Bing curled her lip in disgust. Drunkards were the most repulsive, having completely lost their minds.
"**I'm talking to you!**" Kaido, ignored, flew into a rage, grabbing his Kanabō and smashing it toward Liang Bing by the door.
"Hmph!"
Following the cold laugh, the Kanabō snapped immediately. The drunken Kaido rolled his eyes and collapsed into the pile of wine bottles.
"How disgusting!" Liang Bing frowned deeply. Such savage behavior made her nauseous. Just as she summoned the Transport Aircraft—
"Who touched Boss Kaido?!" Following the roar, the brainless Jack the Drought transformed into his Mammoth Form. This guy, known for 'nine hundred million of his one billion bounty being in his tusks,' successfully summoned the remaining Two Calamities.
This actually saved Liang Bing some trouble.
The sky rumbled, and the Transport Aircraft slowly descended.
Kaido and the Three Calamities were thrown into the cabin one by one like cargo. Liang Bing stood by the hatch, residual energy glow lingering on her fingertips.
"That little girl has quite the vicious methods." Whitebeard laughed heartily, leaning on Murakumogiri, his steel IV bottle clanking with the movement, "Even that madman Kaido was dealt with obediently by you."
There was a rough static hidden within his laughter.
He suddenly reached out and pressed his chest, where thirty-seven scars, old and new, were faintly burning—Marco and the others should currently be sailing somewhere in the New World, yet this woman, who claimed to be forty-seven hundred years old, had only taken him, the old man.
"My children... don't even qualify as spoils of war?"
Liang Bing's cape was swept up by the airflow, revealing a strange device hanging at her waist: "In your era, the so-called experts..." She suddenly turned her head to look toward the Red Line, "The times are about to change."
----
Marine Headquarters, Fleet Admiral's Office
Crumbles of Senbei fell rustling from Garp's fingers; the Legendary Vice Admiral suddenly crushed his teacup. "Sengoku!"
When Kong the Steel Bone's distress call broke through the static, seagulls outside the window were fleeing Marineford in flocks. Sengoku's pen 'clacked' onto the desk, ink spreading like blood across the World Government's top-secret files.
"Kizaru! Aokiji!"
As messy footsteps echoed in the corridor, Garp had already torn off his Justice Coat and stood on the windowsill. The distant sea surface began to twist unnaturally, as if an invisible behemoth was tearing open space.
The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly cut off. Rena coldly scanned the three people in front of her.
She lightly tapped the corner of the desk with her fingertip, a hint of impatience flashing in her eyes.
They were nothing but three ants.
Yet they dared to mobilize the so-called Vice Admirals?
Ridiculous.
When My Lord decided to take over this World—
His name was already etched here.
Even cannon fodder must not be touched by others.
"Who exactly are you..." Fleet Admiral Kong knelt on one knee, his face contorted.
In an instant, he, who was known as the Pinnacle of Physical Technique, had been defeated.
With just a casual strike.
Seventy percent of his strength was annihilated.
What chilled him even more was—
The opponent hadn't even used full power.
"A threat?" Rena sneered, "Are you worthy?"
No matter who was on the other end of the communication.
The outcome was already decided.
The crimson cursor of the void engine flashed on her retina.
On this Planet, no one could escape Dark Matter tracking.
Bang!
Fleet Admiral Kong fell to the ground again.
Rena swung her Spear, scanning the bodies strewn across the floor.
Admiral? Fleet Admiral?
Nothing more than that.
The roar of the Transport Vessel descended from the clouds.
She stood in the air, her robes fluttering.
At this moment—
She was the law.
"Boring."
Catching sight of Kaido being escorted away, Whitebeard's hand, gripping his Bisento, relaxed slightly.
[Subsequent chapter preview content removed]
Below is the text:
The moment the words fell, the opponents were instantly defeated.
The Transport Aircraft then landed for recovery.
Compared to the time she spent, opponents of this level were simply too weak to withstand a single blow.
Hmph, even if you once served on the Cross, this level of feeble strength is not worth mentioning.
Whitebeard was in a great mood now; everything looked pleasant to him.
"What is that direction?"
Liang Bing, suspended in mid-air, suddenly looked into the distance and asked.
"That direction? That's the territory of one of the Four Emperors, Charlotte Linlin. What, are you going there next?"
Seeing Liang Bing eager to try, she seemed intent on capturing all the Four Emperors in one sweep.
"Yes, my time is limited. It would be best if I could solve all of them today."
Liang Bing tilted her head and smiled at Whitebeard, but the smile sent a chill down Whitebeard's spine.
Subduing all the Four Emperors in a single day?
What terrifying strength would that require?
There wouldn't even be enough time just for traveling, right?
Damn it!
Whitebeard began to doubt if he was really a genuine Four Emperor.
"Are you serious?"
"Do I look like I'm joking?" Before she finished speaking, Liang Bing casually ripped open a Spatial Passage.
Facing this familiar Wormhole, Whitebeard instinctively grew wary.
This spatial tunnel—
Is very dangerous!
"Let's go."
Liang Bing strode into the Wormhole, waving just before she vanished.
After a moment of hesitation, Whitebeard gripped his Kusanagi Sword and bravely followed her in.
When he opened his eyes again after traversing the dark Wormhole,
The scene before him made Whitebeard's facial muscles twitch slightly.
You truly live up to your name,
Demon Liang Bing.
Charlotte Linlin's kingdom had already fallen apart.
As a rarely trodden forbidden land, the devastation of Whole Cake Island far exceeded imagination.
That madwoman was currently rambling incoherently on the ground, dressed in rags.
Although they were both Four Emperors, Whitebeard had always declined her tea party invitations—
Who didn't know that was just a pretense for choosing a son-in-law?
If you have the guts, come fight!
The mutual restraint between top-tier experts,
Was utterly shattered at this moment.
Charlotte Linlin and her dozens of children were all lying unconscious.
Witnessing this scene, Whitebeard finally let go of the apprehension in his heart.
She completely defeated Charlotte Linlin's crew in just one move!
Putting everything else aside.
At this moment, Whitebeard felt utterly refreshed.
"Hmm? Why are you here?"
Seeing Whitebeard follow her out, Liang Bing slightly raised her delicate eyebrows.
"Gurararara, I figured that crazy old hag Charlotte might cause you trouble, so I came specifically to check it out!"
Whitebeard laughed heartily, masking his true intention—he merely wanted to see how quickly Liang Bing would deal with her opponent.
"Trouble? Simply laughable! This woman acts like a mentally deranged idiot!"
When talking about Charlotte Linlin, Liang Bing's eyes were full of contempt.
Her gaze was like judging a simpleton.
She possesses strength but is incredibly foolish.
To be revered as a god by a bunch of trash.
It's absolutely preposterous!
"An idiot?"
Hearing this assessment, Whitebeard nearly stumbled.
If Charlotte was considered an idiot—
Wouldn't that put him in the same category as trash?
The more he thought about it, the more horrifying it was!
"Follow me."
Liang Bing casually sliced open a Wormhole, transporting Charlotte and her elite children entirely to the Transport Vessel.
"Where are we going?"
Whitebeard asked, stunned.
"Are you getting senile? Your body is clearly fine."
Liang Bing looked at him suspiciously.
There shouldn't be any signs of dementia.
"Cough, cough... Are you going to look for the last of the Four Emperors next? The one known as Red-Haired..."
Whitebeard awkwardly asked.
Backup QQ Group: 8939646
"No need, they've come themselves."
Liang Bing pointed toward the horizon.
Whitebeard looked intently, only to see a lone boat breaking through the waves.
Was that the Red Hair Pirates?
They just happened to arrive now!
Damn it!
A trace of curiosity also rose in his heart. Whitebeard looked at Red-Haired, his mouth splitting into an exaggerated grin.
"Ha! Then I'll wait and watch the show!"
Whitebeard stood leisurely on the flying device, watching the direction from which the Red Hair Pirateswere speeding, as if watching a performance.
"Who are you?"
Outside Marineford.
Garp, who was just about to leave with the Three Admirals, suddenly looked up and shouted sternly toward the sky.
Garp's shout made his old comrade Sengoku immediately activate his ability. The Three Admiralsinstantly completed their Elemental Transformation.
No need to ask further.
A Major Event!
Today was definitely a big day!
Even they, as Admirals, could not predict whether they would live or die in the upcoming battle!
"You can call me Sun Goddess, or Goddess of Dawn."
Rena, stepping out of the light, looked down at the Warships below, a faint smile playing on her lips.
Although there were still many experts behind Marineford, dealing with the prey in front of her was the priority.
"Elemental Transformation? Hey, Borsalino, this has nothing to do with you, right?" Aokiji saw Renaappear from the light and couldn't help but nudge Kizaru beside him with his elbow.
"How should I know? This woman has neither the aura of a Lower-tier Devil Fruit nor an Upper-tier Devil Fruit!" Kizaru frowned, feeling panic in his heart.
Manipulating light elements?
This clearly signals a peer!
They say peers are rivals. He couldn't even grasp her Shadow.
He was definitely going to be beaten senseless!
Kizaru gave a wry smile, his heart churning like an overturned spice rack.
Although unwilling, with military orders at hand, even an old hand like him had to brace himself.
"Who exactly are you? We've never heard of someone like you on the seas!"
Garp stared at Rena, who was walking on air without using Soru or Geppo, and questioned her in a deep voice.
She is strong!
Extremely troublesome!
She is even much stronger than Rocks, whom he and Roger defeated together back then!
Damn it, when did such an expert pop up on the seas?
"Me? Unfortunately, I didn't operate on the sea before."
"But meeting all five of you target individuals at once certainly saves a lot of trouble."
Chapter 123 Chapter 123.
The words carried a hint of false apology.
Rena curled her lips without a trace of apology, clearly not taking the previous conflict to heart.
Garp, Sengoku, and the others felt a sudden tightness in their chests.
"Meteor Iron Fist!"
Garp quietly took his position, a cunning light flashing in his eyes.
Five top-tier Marine combatants formed a siege—two legends whose strength surpassed that of Admirals, and three current Admirals working together.
Even if the opponent was an existence more dangerous than Rocks of the past, this hunt was bound to succeed!
"Ready to die?"
Rena tapped her knuckles against the gun barrel, the metallic resonance tearing through the stagnant air.
When the tip of the gun refracted the first cold light, a fine shiver erupted simultaneously on the back of every Marine officer's neck.
"Magma Burst!"
Sakazuki's roar overturned the clouds, and crimson magma crashed toward the sky like an inverted waterfall.
"The purity is acceptable."
Rena casually brushed the magma aside; the splashing heat failed to stir a ripple in her pupils.
"A pity... it is merely mortal fire in the end."
The solidified magma collapsed into black basalt in mid-air, and Sakazuki's knees shattered the void beneath his feet.
At this moment, the masseter muscles of all Marine officers were strained into sharp, livid angles.
"Attack!"
The instant four figures tore through the sound barrier, the tip of Rena's gun erupted with light like a star.
When the Transport Aircraft fleet began recovering the battlefield debris, Rena walked toward Marineford, stepping on spatial ripples—these elegant waves were the last courtesy shown to her old opponents.
On Whole Cake Island, the Whitebeard Pirates' executives were collectively silent.
The silver-haired woman surrounded in the center, and the silently standing Edward Newgate, formed an oppressive silhouette.
Shanks pressed down on the hilt of Gryphon, his Adam's apple bobbing...
This time, things were truly coming to a head prematurely.
The opponent was ridiculously strong, capable of making the proud Whitebeard willingly step aside.
What exactly was her background?
Even more alarming, Whole Cake Island had clearly just experienced a fierce battle.
Whitebeard showed no signs of combat—evidently, someone else had made a move.
Red-Haired would rather believe that the Marines had launched a joint raid,
than admit that the smiling woman had single-handedly flattened the entire island!
If that were true, it would be too terrifying!
Although Kizaru still wore his cynical expression,
with military orders at hand, even a lazy person like him had to tense his nerves.
"Who exactly are you? There has never been a figure like you on the high seas!"
Garp stared intently at Rena, who walked across the void as if on solid ground—this was definitely not a realm achievable by Moonwalk or Shave.
Troublesome, extremely troublesome!
She was several times stronger than Rocks, whom he and Roger defeated together back then!
When did such a monster hide on the high seas?
"Me? Sorry, I really haven't ventured onto the sea before."
Rena said she was sorry, but her eyes held no apology.
"But since all five targets are present, it saves trouble."
"Fist Bone: Meteor!"
Garp suddenly erupted in attack—the probing was over; it was time to get serious!
Two powerhouses above the Admiral level plus three Admirals working together,
even if the opponent was stronger than Rocks, they were determined to capture her!
"Are you all ready?"
Rena slightly raised the tip of her gun, and the moment the cold light flashed, everyone's hearts violently contracted—that was an ominous sign!
"Great Eruption!!"
Akainu was the first to explode, and a torrent of magma shot into the sky.
"The power is slightly purer than those previous small fry,"
Rena commented softly, "But that's all it is."
Damn it!
Rena's complete disregard for the magma attack caused everyone's heart to sink.
Blast it!
Boom!
A golden light flashed!
The scorching magma instantly solidified into hard rock right in front of Rena.
Even the arrogant Sakazuki stumbled and knelt in mid-air.
Seeing this scene, everyone's eyebrows twitched.
Too strong!
Attack!
Boom!!!
Two Admirals, Garp, and Fleet Admiral Sengoku attacked simultaneously.
But it was already too late!
The tip of the gun glowed with dazzling golden light.
"Clean up the battlefield!"
Rena walked toward Marineford without looking back, the Transport Aircraft following closely to clear the battlefield.
Even space was rippled by her power—this was the courtesy given to the older generation.
On Whole Cake Island,
Red-Haired looked at the mysterious woman occupying the center position, then glanced at Whitebeard standing beside her, feeling bitter inside.
It was over; they had failed this time.
What was the background of this woman who could make the proud Whitebeard willingly take a subordinate position?
Even more troublesome, Whole Cake Island had clearly just gone through a fierce battle.
Yet Whitebeard was spotless... it seemed someone else had done the fighting.
It better not be this smiling woman, or Red-Haired would really start cursing.
He would rather believe that the World Government and the Marines had jointly attacked Whole Cake Island,
than believe this woman could take on the entire island alone!
If that were true, it would be too frightening!
"Whitebeard, introduce this lady?"
The usually carefree Red-Haired was now extremely serious.
He had to be—the person opposite him made him completely unsure of himself!
"Want to meet her? You will soon enough."
Whitebeard was startled for a moment, then spat.
Heh, the brat wants to cozy up to her?
(The crew members of the Red Hair Pirates gripped their weapons, gun barrels and blades all pointing toward the figure with slightly vibrating wings in the air.
Ben Beckman's cigarette butt suddenly sparked: "Madam, your words are not very polite."
Laughter erupted on the deck—
"Even though Captain always drinks up the party money..."
"And broke the mast last week..."
"He's still our important liability!"
Liang Bing ran her fingertip across her lips, the metal glove sparking faintly.
She suddenly found these ants interesting, like the fruit flies in a research lab that rush toward the light even though they know they will die.
"Commendable courage."
The Demon Queen lazily snapped her fingers.
Shanks' pupils suddenly contracted.
In the future scene predicted by Observation Haki, countless pitch-black tornadoes were erupting from that woman's palm.
The moment his right hand pressed onto Gryphon's sword hilt, the air across the entire sea suddenly solidified into a gel.
Twenty-third Generation Super Soldier Genetic Code: Spatial Lock—Activated.
Ice-crystal prisms descended from the sky, sealing the entire Red Hair Pirates inside an amber cube.
Liang Bing admired their figures frozen in a charging posture, as if viewing a set of pirate-themed amber specimens.
"Now..."
She landed on top of the cube, her high heel tapping out a crisp echo, "Can we continue our previous conversation?"
A chill suddenly invaded, and Shanks felt a cooling sensation on the back of his neck.
"What's going on?"
He spun around abruptly, his crimson hair tracing a sharp arc in the air.
Fine beads of sweat slid down his temples.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Amidst continuous muffled thuds, members of the Red Hair Pirates fell one after another like cut wheat...
"Terrifying!"
Shanks' pupils contracted sharply, and the veins bulged on the hand gripping his Rapier.
This power, which defied common sense, made his entire body tremble.
Morgana, standing by the ship's railing, casually dusted off her skirt.
Edward Newgate witnessed this power so clearly for the first time.
The attack that had struck him earlier was too fast to capture, and even now, focusing completely, he still couldn't discern any details.
Was this the highest level of confrontation?
The bodies lying haphazardly on the deck demonstrated absolute crushing dominance.
"There's no figure like you on the list of powerhouses in the New World."
Shanks' voice was strained, and cold sweat soaked his shirt.
This sense of oppression even surpassed the suffocation he felt on the day Captain Roger passed away.
A silver-bell-like laugh rang out: "I come from beyond the stars."
A slender finger curled a lock of hair.
"Do you want to come with me to the end of the galaxy?"
Shanks' Rapier slid into its sheath with a "clang."
"Whitebeard! Is this what you call probing?"
He glared through gritted teeth at the giant who was watching the show.
The old Captain, his white hair fluttering, took a swig of strong liquor and laughed loudly: "Someone had to figure out her moves and methods!"
"I choose to surrender."
Shanks suddenly raised his hands high, flashing a brilliant smile under Morgana's stunned gaze: "But before setting off, could I, this humble one, witness the true..."
Before he finished speaking, the entire sea suddenly boiled!
Ceasefire!
What harm was there in surrendering and following a powerhouse?
I will accompany you!
I want to see what this important figure truly intends to do?
Shanks glared at Whitebeard, his eyes wide with anger and his teeth clenched.
Seeing Red-Haired in this state, Whitebeard couldn't help but feel a little regret.
What a pity.
How wonderful it would have been if Red-Haired had fought that person!
"Clear the battlefield!"
Seeing Red-Haired cease fighting, Liang Bing was completely unconcerned.
She immediately ordered the Transport Team to sweep the battlefield!
No sooner had she spoken than a Transport Aircraft roared in.
In the blink of an eye, it completely took away Red-Haired's entire pirate ship!
Damn it, where's my ship?
If Red-Haired hadn't heard Liang Bing's "Clear the battlefield" order just now,
he would have nearly fought that Transport Aircraft to the death!
Stealing my ship and abducting my crew!
This enmity is irreconcilable!
"Excuse me... my crew will be..."
Red-Haired hesitated, his eyes full of worry.
He knew exactly what kind of characters those guys were!
"That depends on whether they behave themselves."
Liang Bing's lips curled slightly, revealing a devilish smile.
This mysterious smile sent a chill down Red-Haired's spine.
Damn it!
See if they behave themselves?
What a joke!
If pirates were law-abiding, why would they be pirates?
That's absurd!
"Gurararara, don't worry.
Red-Haired, your crew won't die; at most, they'll just get a beating!"
Whitebeard grinned widely, looking at Red-Haired teasingly.
These words infuriated Red-Haired, who nearly attacked someone violently.
This old man really deserved a punch!
Too bad he couldn't beat him.
Nine Snake Island.
Wang Haoyu was not the only one waiting outside the military camp.
There was also the worried Hancock,
and the dense crowd of Nine Snake Island residents in the woods.
Everyone was full of curiosity about these steel creations...
If not for Empress Hancock's strict prohibition, they would have surrounded Wang Haoyu long ago.
Ten minutes passed in an instant for Wang Haoyu.
But for the people of Nine Snake Island, the wait was long and agonizing!
This anticipation was truly nerve-wracking!
The military camp gates burst open.
The crisp sound of high heels immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Hearing the footsteps, Boa Hancock frowned slightly.
That sound... was indeed high heels.
But how could that Old Hag possibly wear high heels?
When the image of the Old Hag walking in high heels flashed through her mind, Boa Hancock couldn't help but shiver.
That sight was truly unbearable.
"Umbrella Civilization, Third Class Private, Old Hag pays respects to the Supreme My Lord!"
A drawn-out voice came from the entrance.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a woman dressed in camouflage attire approaching gracefully.
Her long boots accentuated her elegant figure, and her waist-length hair gently swayed in the wind.
