Issho, the current Marine Admiral who was fighting the former Admiral, Kuzan, paused his movements.
Being blind, he could only use perception instead of sight.
This was enough to show how advanced his Observation Haki Training was.
And in his perception, the six powerful energies originally gathered in Pangaea Castle were disappearing one after another.
Even though he was blind, he vaguely guessed what terrifying events were happening over there.
"Completely disregarding the consequences..."
Issho muttered under his breath.
He had agreed with the proposed policy to abolish the Warlord System originally planned for this Levely.
But Issho hadn't intended to take action against the Five Elders.
Just like Borsalino moments before…
He believed a behemoth that had ruled the world for 800 years couldn't be overthrown so easily.
But now...
Seeing Issho's movements halt, Kuzan showed no intention of pressing the advantage.
"After all, it can't get any worse, can it?"
Kuzan asked meaningfully.
He hadn't been part of the Revolutionary Army for very long, but he had gained a deeper understanding of the world's ugliness than during his time as a Marine.
What impact the complete annihilation of the World Government's top leadership would have on this world…
Kuzan himself didn't know.
But he understood at least one thing:
It couldn't possibly be worse than the present situation.
"Fujitora... no, Issho old friend, you who would kneel for a country's sake should understand this, right? After all, you've personally experienced this world's darkness too."
Kuzan's words completely drained Issho's fighting spirit.
...
In the main hall of Pangaea Castle, the room containing the Empty Throne.
The weapons planted around the throne symbolized the eternal loyalty of the affiliated countries to the World Government.
And the World Government had always proclaimed that the Empty Throne could never be sat upon by anyone.
But today, under the stunned gaze of people worldwide-
"This thing isn't even as comfortable as a doghouse..."
Jin reached out and rubbed the chair a couple of times.
The next second, not even bothering to sit, he slapped the seat representing the highest authority over the entire ocean into pieces.
Clatter~
Jin slightly raised his hand.
From beneath the throne's ruins, several unremarkable vines suddenly rose, intertwining to form a tree chair identical to Vergil's.
"And then?"
Jin sat down on the tree chair, propping his cheek with one hand, a somewhat conflicted expression on his face as he looked down at Imu and the remaining three half-dead Five Elders lying on the ground like stray dogs below.
"How should I repay you for ruining my fun?"
The four below gasped for breath, either wanting to speak but lacking the strength, or with words on the tips of their tongues but not knowing what to say.
Power accumulated over 800 years was actually so helpless before this opponent.
At this moment, Imu and the others' feelings were like Frieza, who boasted of being invincible throughout the universe, only to be immediately beaten to a pulp by Super Saiyan Goku and Super Saiyan Trunks.
The feeling was utterly frustrating.
Oh wait, no.
Using Frieza to describe these senile old fools was really an insult to the Great Lord of the Universe.
And the entire process of the Five Elders and Imu, standing at the world's pinnacle, being played like monkeys by Jin was completely presented to the world through the broadcast Den Den Mushi in Pudding's hands.
Although the six had tried to attack Pudding several times during the process, fighting Jin truly didn't allow them a single second of relaxation.
If they turned to attack Pudding, their heads would be torn off by Jin the next second.
That's exactly what happened to the first one killed, Saturn!
"You don't have sons or daughters, so I can't make meat pies. There are exactly four of you left now, so how about turning two of you into women and having a group session in front of the whole world? But I've used that method before and I'm too lazy to use it again..."
After muttering to himself for a moment, Jin shook his head and sighed:
"Well, it's better to just kill you directly."
Facing these ancient monsters who had lived nearly a thousand years, Jin didn't have much interest in deliberately torturing them either.
It completely lacked the pleasure of gender-bending Momonosuke and having her happily married to Kaido.
After all, although these old monsters had committed far more atrocities than Momonosuke, aside from attacking Onigashima with the Mother Flame earlier, they hadn't provoked Jin personally at other times.
And Momonosuke had thoroughly disgusted Jin back when he was just an ordinary reader in his previous life.
So Jin couldn't be bothered to come up with creative ways to torture them…
It's better to just give them a quick end.
"It's very rare for me to be so merciful, so go with gratitude."
Jin wore an expression that said 'You should thank me'.
The remaining three Five Elders and Imu were so angry they wanted to curse.
But Nami, who had been standing in a row with Pudding the whole time, could testify.
This time, this pervert was indeed telling the truth.
Compared to the previous meat pie incident with Hiruzen, and Momonosuke being messed unconscious by Kaido, Jin choosing to give the Five Elders and the others a quick death could really be considered gentle.
"Wh-What good does killing us do for you?"
Mars gritted his teeth, enduring the intense pain from his wounds, barely managing to speak:
"Spare us, and we can help you become the new King of the World!"
Imu, kneeling on both knees at the very front, immediately shot a murderous glare at Mars upon hearing this.
But on the verge of death, how could Mars care about that?
Moreover, what could you, Imu, even do in this situation?
Besides yielding, was there any other choice?
"Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro is willing to submit!"
"Topman Warcury states his willingness for Uchiha Jin-sama to succeed the position of Creator."
The other two Five Elders also immediately lowered their heads and admitted defeat without hesitation.
Damn it, since they were clinging to someone's coattails anyway, why not cling to a thicker, bigger one?
"This is really... an unexpected development."
Beckman, possessing the sharpest mind on the seas, couldn't help but open his mouth in astonishment at this moment.
Due to Shanks's special status, they had dealt with the World Government frequently over the years.
But they could never have imagined that the Five Elders would betray their master.
"If this man agrees, the World Government's control over this world will reach new heights."
Beckman guessed at a glance that if Jin agreed to the remaining Three Elders' proposal, the World Government wouldn't collapse but instead would achieve a qualitative leap in power.
After all, with a boss who can blow up the moon, who would dare rebel?
This is basically the One Piece Version of Frieza-sama.
"He won't agree."
However, just then, Shanks spoke up abruptly.
"Huh?"
Beckman looked at his captain in surprise.
His expression seemed to ask 'How do you know?'
After all, counting from beginning to end, Shanks had only encountered Jin twice.
He shouldn't know the other that well.
Shanks didn't answer, just quietly watched the live broadcast.
...
"This is really interesting."
Jin grinned:
"Willing to betray your master just to survive? I feel like I've seen this somewhere before."
Nami promptly reminded:
"Nara Shikaku."
'Oh, right, right, almost forgot.'
During the Konoha Coup before, Shikaku, the leader of the Nara Clan who was once Hiruzen's most trusted, pull this exact move.
And he played it quite well too.
He successfully made Jin laugh, letting the Ino-Shika-Cho trio off the hook.
"However, unfortunately, your situation is completely different from Nara Shikaku's."
Jin stood up from the tree chair, his tone indifferent.
The reason he spared the Ino-Shika-Cho trio back then wasn't just because Shikaku's meat pie act amused Jin.
More importantly, it was their political stance.
At that time, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio led by Shikaku adopted a neutral, wait-and-see attitude, not taking either side.
To put it nicely, they were neutral… to put it bluntly, they were fence-sitters.
But the political stance of the Five Elders was on Imu's side.
Now, because they're facing death, they're forced to try and switch sides.
Moreover, sparing the Ino-Shika-Cho trio also had the reason that Jin wanted to learn the Multi-Size Technique at the time, to facilitate his intimate relations with Shirahoshi.
So the Ino-Shika-Cho were more or less useful to Jin.
However, the Five Elders were another matter entirely.
After a relaxed and casual musou-style battle, Jin had basically understood their abilities.
They're completely useless.
They couldn't bridge the size gap between Jin and Shirahoshi like the Multi-Size Technique…
Nor could they grant Jin the formidable power to pierce through the earth's core like the Saiyan Bloodline.
There really was no reason to spare them.
With this in mind, Jin slightly raised his hand.
A blue light wave gathered in his palm.
The four below, led by Imu, looked on in horror.
How could they not recognize it?
That was the energy wave Jin used to blow up the moon!
Without any hesitation, the four mustered the last bit of strength in their bodies, got up, and ran backwards!
Boom!
It wasn't a Kamehameha, just an ordinary energy wave blast.
But even so, its power was terrifyingly immense.
The massive Pangaea Castle instantly exploded, rapidly disintegrating in the blazing blue-white light wave.
And in the instant before the explosion, Nami, who had detected it in advance, quickly pulled Pudding and Robin onto Flying Nimbus.
They flew out through the large hole in the ceiling above, broken open during the earlier intense battle.
And through the broadcast Den Den Mushi in Pudding's hand, billions of people worldwide saw the remaining three of Five Elders, symbols of the world's highest authority, and the mysterious existence they respectfully addressed as 'Imu-sama' during the just-concluded battle, with their faces filled with unwillingness and pain, rapidly dissolving under the impact of the light wave…
As if they had never existed.
Under Jin's calm gaze, Koala and the others hurried over.
They happened to witness the scene that had just been seen by people worldwide.
"R-really dead?"
The old corporate slave, Borsalino was still a bit dazed.
'N-No matter how fierce Uchiha Jin was, the other party was, after all, a behemoth that had ruled this world for 800 years.'
'Th-this easily just...?'
"Huh?! What is this thing!?"
At this moment, Hancock's beautiful eyes widened, staring intently at what was following behind Jin...
The figure looked like herself.
To be precise, her childhood self.
But she possessed an exaggerated physique close to that of a Pacifista.
"Oh oh~ I forgot to introduce-"
Jin ended the Genjutsu and pulled S-Snake in front of Hancock.
"Hancock, this is S-Snake. Let's call her Little Snake from now on. Just consider it like gaining a daughter."
Hancock's eyes bulged wide.
'Wh-what nonsense?'
'Suddenly gaining a daughter out of nowhere?'
And S-Snake, pulled to the front by Jin, quickly hid behind him.
However, her burly physique couldn't be hidden no matter what.
It's exactly like Chopper's hiding posture.
"There, there~ Don't be afraid, don't be afraid~"
Jin reached out and stroked S-Snake's silver-white hair, comforting her softly.
Seeing this, Hancock secretly clenched her fists.
...
Meanwhile, under Nami's instructions, Vivi and the others, who had escaped to safety outside Pangaea Castle and thus saved their lives, also came up.
Similarly looking incredulous.
"Th-this proposal probably doesn't need to be submitted anymore, right?"
Riku, still shaken, turned to look at his friend, Cobra.
He had originally planned to propose abolishing the Warlord System together with him.
But now it seemed... unnecessary.
After all, the Warlords were just the World Government's lackeys.
Now that the master was dead, what trouble could the dogs possibly stir up?
"Those who have committed wrongs must pay the price!"
Koala promptly spoke up, seeking to win over hearts:
"Although Donquixote Doflamingo has been imprisoned in Impel Down, Crocodile is still at large!"
Koala shouted sternly:
"King Cobra, Princess Vivi, please rest assured, we will definitely bring Crocodile to justice!"
When Koala was with Jin, she wasn't just busy having children all the time.
Although Jin had no interest in politics, Koala loved discussing it.
Plus, Jin occasionally spouted a few quotes from famous people from his previous life, which made Koala's eyes shine even brighter.
Another viewpoint Jin had was that 'Those who make mistakes should obediently accept punishment, don't think saying 'I'm very sorry' can make it as if nothing happened'.
This gained Koala's deep agreement.
And Crocodile was one of them.
He turned Alabasta upside down before, and now he can still roam free?
Why?
They should take this opportunity to arrest this trash immediately.
Moreover, it could win over a major country like Alabasta with a population reaching eight figures.
So why not?
"Th-then, thank you, Koala-san."
Cobra nodded.
He had originally intended to propose abolishing the Warlord System.
But being able to directly arrest a former Warlord was, of course, even better.
And to be honest, seeing a scumbag like Crocodile still enjoying himself freely outside didn't sit well with him either.
Jin felt that it's because he joined Luffy's camp.
Not just Crocodile… even Caesar, who conducted human experiments, could be whitewashed.
"You guys chat slowly, I'm leaving."
Jin turned around, preparing to leave.
"Eh? Leaving so soon?"
Koala blinked her large, round eyes.
"I'm not interested in politics, and I'm a bit concerned about the situation at Onigashima. It's more fun over there."
Although what was happening at the Holy Land now was the major event rewriting the world's pattern, Jin's thoughts were still on Onigashima.
Has Momoko, who had been messed unconscious by Kaido, woken up yet?
Has she awakened any new fetishes?
How to deal with her afterwards? Should she be transformed into the Blackbeard Pirates Alliance's hot weapon?
Has Luffy successfully evolved into Nika?
Can he defeat the combination of Kaido + Blackbeard?
Jin couldn't wait to return and watch the grand finale.
"Vivi, goodbye."
Seeing Jin leaving, Nami also quickly boarded Flying Nymbus to follow.
"Nami, I'll come too-"
Seeing this, Vivi also wanted to follow.
She already knew that the Straw Hats were currently fighting against two Emperor crews at Onigashima.
Having once been a member of the Straw Hat Pirates herself, she couldn't rest easy.
"Princess Vivi, it would be better for you not to associate with the Straw Hat Pirates."
At this moment, Koala suddenly spoke up to stop her.
"All pirates worldwide should be arrested and imprisoned. As someone about to succeed the throne, you should avoid suspicion."
To purify this world, merely overthrowing the World Government wasn't enough.
Of course, pirates couldn't be spared either!
The harm they inflicted on ordinary people was no less than that caused by the World Government and the Celestial Dragons.
"B-but Luffy and the others are good pirates!"
Vivi argued anxiously.
"Pirates are divided to good and bad?"
Koala couldn't help but laugh.
