Chapter 381
"The ability of the space Devil fruit?»
Yeruashi landed softly and calmly surveyed the ruined Holy Land of Marijoa without making any sudden movements.
The Shinra Tensei of the Six Paths has gone beyond the power that the people of this world can possess.
This force is impossible to resist, it can only be evaded.
At the moment when Gorosei and the others were thrown back by the force of the repulsion, someone suddenly opened a spatial passage using some spatial ability, and avoided a direct collision with Shinra Tensei along with several people.
It was either some devilish fruit of the space branch, or the devilish fruit of space itself, standing on top of it.
"Run.»
"Run in fear.»
Yeruashi looked at the surrounding area with a sky-blue glow in his pupils, then stepped forward and disappeared.
In fact, with Yeruashi's speed, it was possible to cancel the Shinra Tensei without much trouble and prevent the opening of the spatial passage with the help of Emotsu Hirasaka, but he did not do it.
In the end, canceling half way through would significantly weaken Shinra Tensei's power.
It is better that they experience pain and remember what fear is, and then run away in terror, fearing that death may at any moment knock on their door.
This state of Gorosei was much more interesting than a simple death.
...
Somewhere in the middle of the sea, on a small hidden island.
It was one of the islands that the World Government had erased from all maps, and that had been hidden more painstakingly than any of the others.
Many secrets of the World Government are hidden on this island, so only Sky Dragons with a status no lower than Gorosei know about it.
Over one of the clearings in the middle of the forest, darkness flashed and several human figures fell out of it.
They crashed to the ground with a crash, as if they had just been hit by a terrifying force.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
A huge web of cracks stretched across the ground from each figure, and streams of blood gushed out of their mouths.
"Ahem..ahem...»
"That bastard...how dare he...ahem...»
One of the Gorosei struggled to his feet, leaning on a long katana, and spat out several mouthfuls of blood, soiling his white clothes.
His body was shaking violently, not clearly out of anger or fear.
Other Gorosei and SP-0s were lying on the ground nearby.
As Gorosei, who was leaning on the katana, was gnashing his teeth, he suddenly noticed something and with a cough, he abruptly knelt down.
"Lord Im...»
The others had even more severe injuries, but they also struggled to their feet and knelt, turning in the direction of the figure standing in the middle of the clearing.
Someone with a tremor in his voice said: "I'm sorry...Lord Im...we couldn't protect the Holy Land...»
Gorosei, who was holding a large katana, raised his head with difficulty and spat out a mouthful of blood: "Lord Im...what do you want me to do next?..»
At the moment when the seriously injured figures were trembling violently, barely able to stand on their feet.
The figure standing in the middle of the clearing finally opened its mouth.
"No...»
His eyes, which were capable of seeing the future, were violently twitching, as if they were seeing some terrifying scene.
"Don't provoke him...»
After these words, the clearing fell silent, and the trembling Gorosei froze, only their heavy wheezing could be heard.
As the supreme Heavenly Dragons who rule this world, the Gorosei have not known fear or felt pain for a very long time.
But on this day.
They felt the pain again, and they felt the fear...
Fear brought by a terrifying and unfathomable force.
At that moment, they realized that they were mere mortals, just like the rest of the people!
...
The end of the 5th year from the beginning of the Era of Pirates.
The most terrible and high-profile event since the creation of the World Government eight hundred years ago occurred — the Holy Land of Marijoa was wiped off the face of the earth.
In this incident, countless Heavenly Dragons fell.
Only a few of the Heavenly Dragons that were outside the Holy Land at the time managed to survive.
Each of the surviving Sky Dragons experienced something they hadn't experienced since birth — fear!
They were shaking!
They were trembling with fear!!
Whether it was the Revolutionary Dragon who was actively developing the Revolutionary Army, hoping to shake the dominance of the Heavenly Dragons, the mighty pirates dominating the New World, or the Shadow World Emperors and the Fleet Admiral, they all remained silent after receiving this shocking news.
Compared to the silent reaction of the most influential and powerful people, ordinary civilians who learned about the incident from the newspapers the next day, first felt puzzled, and then began to sink into horror.
Following the horror, there was a commotion everywhere.
The whole world...boiling!
...
Somewhere in the vastness of the New World.
Belous fell silent after reading the latest newspaper.
Moby-Dick's deck was silent.
Still young, Phoenix Marco, Diamond Joz, and the rest of the Whitebeard Pirates looked at each other in shock.
In silence.
Belous slowly put down the newspaper, picked up a large glass, and took a sip of wine: "This time, he really did something...incredible.»
If earlier the victory of Yeruashi over Sengoku had simply surprised Belous, and there were only vague rumors about the destruction of Marinford and no clear information, then this time even he, as a person standing on the absolute top of the sea and called the strongest, felt a huge shock.
In this chaotic sea, the headquarters of the Sea Watch was not unwavering.
Although the Golden Lion was arrested after the invasion, but in doing so, he managed to destroy almost half of Marinford.
In history, there were also high-profile cases of invasion of the Holy Land, painstakingly erased from history by the World Government.
But.
The Holy Land was never destroyed!!
Unlike the same headquarters of the Sea Watch, despite all the attempts to invade, the Holy Land has never been destroyed, since the creation of the World Government eight hundred years ago!
"He destroyed the Holy Land of Marijoa...»
"Really a monster...»
Marco took a deep breath...whether he managed to survive.»
After taking a sip of wine, Whitebeard lowered the large glass and looked out at the vast sea beyond Moby Dick: "I have a feeling that he's alive.»
"Destroy the Holy Land of Marijoa...even if the Traveler is dead, he can already be considered a 'hero' who has not appeared for hundreds of years, but he is most likely alive and we will meet soon.»
Belous had a premonition that they would definitely meet.
His premonition was always very accurate.
Once in the past, he had sensed that something very bad was about to happen to Captain Rox...
Soon, Garp and Roger teamed up to put an end to the Rox Pirates.
After that, the Roger era began.
