Everyone Must Die!

"Aaaaargh!!!"

Accompanied by a rain of blood, screams echoed across Execution Square!

"Thump!"

Arlong crashed heavily to the ground. A massive bloody rent extended from his forehead all the way down to his groin, seemingly splitting his body in two. A horizontal gash also ran across his waist!

"Arlong Boss!"

The Arlong Pirates roared in terror.

None of them had expected Arlong Boss, who had been pursuing the Black-Haired Officer, to suddenly collapse, grievously wounded.

What exactly had happened in that instant?

"Pat."

Roya landed on the ground and walked toward Arlong, who was struggling to get up.

Even with his Body nearly torn apart, Arlong hadn't died. Roya was moved by his powerful vitality.

Humans were indeed among the weakest races in the world. Whether Fish-Man or other strange and bizarre races, they were born with superhuman strength.

How annoying!

Roya's gaze grew colder.

They were born stronger than Humans, possessing superhuman powers that ordinary Humans could never hope to attain. Yet, they didn't strive for self-improvement, blaming their incompetence on Human oppression, and even running to the peaceful East Blue to bully weak common folk.

Weakness could be overcome, but once the spirit collapsed, even granting immense power would be futile.

Strengthen the Physique, civilize the spirit.

This was the fundamental reason why Humans could rule the world despite their physical frailty!

Arlong stood up, covered in blood, his eyes filled with piercing hatred as he roared and charged at Roya.

"Inferior Humans!"

"How pathetic."

Roya slightly sidestepped, easily dodging Arlong's Tackle, and swung his Blade, leaving a deep wound on Arlong's Body.

Roya turned to look at the spurting blood. His gaze was even more indifferent now. "Fish-Man Arlong, you are no longer my opponent."

"…"

Arlong's eyes were bloodshot.

That look!

He would never forget the look those Humans gave him when he sought revenge for Fisher Tiger.

It was as if they were looking at an Inferior being!

"I'll kill you!"

Arlong charged at Roya, heedless of everything!

"Pfft!"

A flash of light, and the two passed each other!

Roya didn't turn around, carrying Rain Cutter dripping with blood as he walked toward the center of the Battlefield.

Behind him, Arlong's Body froze in the rain. A Blood Line appeared on his neck, and then his head slid off!

"Arlong Boss!"

The Arlong Pirates members who had been paying close attention to Arlong saw his head fall and were filled with grief and indignation.

But the Marines were all around them, and they couldn't even break through, let alone reach Arlong's location.

Despair enveloped every Fish-Man!

"Kill all Humans!"

"Avenge Arlong Boss!"

"We'll die avenging ourselves against Humans!"

A final burst of madness!

Roya advanced calmly, soon reaching a corner of the Battlefield. Besides the Arlong Pirates, there were others who had to die.

"Roya!"

Murak and his Trusted Lieutenants were huddled together, having deliberately avoided the main force of the Arlong Pirates, and only had minor injuries.

Seeing Roya walking toward them with his Long Sword, everyone panicked. His murderous Killing Intent didn't seem like he was coming to protect them!

Murak was fearful and uneasy. He looked around and saw that the Marines were all engaged in fighting the Arlong Pirates, and with the rain obscuring everything, no one was paying attention to them.

Earlier, to protect themselves, he and his Trusted Lieutenants had deliberately stayed on the edge of the Battlefield, but now it had become their Grave.

Murak looked at Roya and could clearly feel his Killing Intent. Fear gradually consumed his heart, and he questioned Roya, putting on a brave face despite his fear: "Major Roya, what do you think you're doing?!"

"Inviting you to your Death."

Roya said calmly, "Murak and his Lieutenants heroically sacrificed themselves in the war against the Arlong Pirates. Such a death is worthy of your pride."

"No, don't kill me!"

Murak was so frightened that he knelt down, crying and begging for mercy. "Roya, please don't kill me! I was wrong. I shouldn't have targeted you. I'll kowtow and apologize! I have a lot of money! I'll give it all to you!"

Roya's cold gaze intensified as he raised his Long Sword. "The Marines have no use for scum like you!"

Blood stained the Earth red!

----

Half an hour later, the sounds of fighting gradually ceased.

When the downpour stopped and the morning sun illuminated Logue town, lighting up Execution Square, the Battlefield was finally cleared.

The entire Arlong Pirates were dead, their bodies piled up like a small mountain beneath the Execution Stage. The bodies of Arlong and his three officers were hung up.

Of the Logue Town Branch's 1,200 Marines, only 500 or so remained, lined up neatly below the Execution Stage. Each was covered in blood and their chests were heaving.

They had won, but the victory was extremely tragic.

When the residents of Logue town cautiously emerged from their homes and saw the nightmarish scene at Execution Square, they almost forgot how to breathe.

The scene before them was deeply etched in their memories. The Black-Haired Marine on the Execution Stage holding Arlong's head was even more unforgettable.

"Murak !"

Gordon from Marine Headquarters finally appeared. Seeing the horrific state of the Battlefield, he anxiously searched for Murak.

When he saw the neatly arranged corpses of Murak and his Lieutenants, his pupils dilated, and he couldn't help but gasp.

What horrified him wasn't the Death of Murak and the others, but their death.

He had been observing secretly last night and knew that the enemy was the Arlong Pirates, but Murak and the others had clearly been killed by a Swordsmanship expert, and according to the wounds, it was the same person.

Could it be!

Gordon immediately looked up at Roya on the Execution Stage. Roya was also looking at him, his indifferent gaze like that of someone looking at a dead Man.

Black Hair!

Gordon felt a chill down his spine and quickly averted his gaze.

He was seeing Roya for the first time, but he was absolutely certain of Roya's identity, and that Roya had killed Murak.

There was no evidence, just Intuition.

The moment he saw Roya, he felt a bone-chilling coldness. Coupled with the strange situation last night, it was very likely that the other party had orchestrated the whole thing.

Return to Headquarters immediately!

Gordon no longer had any intention of dealing with Roya, and even planned to conceal his suspicion that Roya had killed Murak.

This Man was not someone he could provoke!

Roya withdrew his gaze and looked at the Marines below the Execution Stage.

"Dismissed!"

"Yes!!!"

All the Marines roared in response. Not a single person questioned him. No matter what had happened before, Major Roya was now the Supreme Commander of Logue town.

It wasn't just a superior-subordinate relationship. Even if a new Base Commander arrived later, they would still prioritize following Major Roya's orders.

Without a doubt, Major Roya was the demon who had doomed more than 700 Marines of the Logue Town Branch, filling them with deep fear.

But Major Roya's ruthlessness and determination in combating evil also pointed out the path forward for them in this chaotic World.

To carry out the extermination of evil to the very end!

The war was over.

But the turmoil in Logue town had just begun!

"Murak is dead?!"

In less than half a day, the news of Murak's Death spread throughout Logue town. Even more bizarre was that all the naval officers of the Logue Town Branch above the rank of Major, except for Roya, had been killed in action.

Everyone knew that Logue town was about to change!
