A First-Person Perspective on the Impact of Power!

BANG—

Suddenly, the door to the Chamber of Power was pushed open.

Immediately after, a hearty laugh echoed from outside. "Haha, it's been a long time since this place has been so lively!"

As the voice faded, a figure entered.

It was Garling, his crescent-shaped hairstyle standing out as he strode energetically into the Chamber of Power.

He walked straight to a sofa opposite Orion and sat down, smiling warmly.

"Fleet Admiral Orion, it won't be long before we'll be working together!"

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

Orion smiled as he looked at Garling. "Even if Marcus Mars and Shepherd Ju Peter have been taken out, you still don't have the right to swagger into the Chamber of Power like this."

Garling nodded, his smile fading. "True, but just moments ago, Im-sama granted me a new identity—a candidate for the Five Elders. During the next rotation, I will enter this Chamber of Power as one of the Five Elders. I'm here now to inform everyone of this."

"Interesting."

Orion narrowed his eyes slightly, turning his gaze to the three men seated opposite him: Topman, Saturn, and Ethanbaron.

He spoke calmly "The two seats reserved for the Marine are fixed. Although the personnel may rotate, they are only selected from the Marine Headquarters. This means that during the next rotation, one of you three will be replaced?"

Hearing this, Ethanbaron, Topman and Saturn all looked up almost simultaneously.

Previously, they had thought that with Marcus Mars and Shepherd Ju Peter gone, even if Garling were to join as a new Elder, it wouldn't affect them much.

At most, the Figarland family would become unprecedentedly powerful.

However, the reality was that once Garling entered the Chamber of Power, one of the three of them would be rotated out.

At that moment, a sudden wail pierced the air.

Shalria, her face completely distorted from being slapped, with blood trickling from her nose and mouth, was dragged into the room by Hancock like a ragdoll and thrown in front of Orion.

"Kneel!"

After tossing Shalria to the ground, Hancock immediately stepped on h back, forcing her to kneel facing Orion.

Seeing this, Orion waved his hand lightly, signaling Hancock to step back.

Hancock, knowing when to stop, obediently returned to Orion side, proudly looking down at Shalria, who was now kneeling before Orion.

Her heart swelled with satisfaction.

Beating up a Celestial Dragon in the Chamber of Power in front of the Five Elders?

Even with her deep-seated hatred for the Celestial Dragons, she had never dared to imagine such a scene.

After all, this was the heart of the World Government's power, where the Five Elders, the highest authority, issued their commands.

Yet, because of Orion presence, she had not only done it, but the Five Elders didn't dared to utter a single word of protest.

As she stood by Orion side, Hancock heart was filled with joy and she began to daydream about all sorts of blissful scenarios, her cheeks flushed and her expression radiant.

Standing to Orion left, Doflamingo also experienced the true impact of Orion power.

As the Marine Fleet Admiral, Orion merely took a seat in the Chamber of Power and the once arrogant Five Elders dared not utter a single word of dissent.

They averted their eyes, allowing Boa Hancock to mercilessly beat down a Celestial Dragon and trample over their privileges.

"Saint Saturn... sob sob—"

Shalria, who had been thoroughly beaten and lost all her former arrogance, mumbled incoherently in protest.

"I am a Celestial Dragon! This is the Chamber of Power! How could you stand by and watch as I am assaulted? And Saint Nusjuro, Saint Topman Warcury, you... you must stand up for me!"

"Silence!"

Surprised that Shalria remained so delusional even after being beaten, Ethanbaron V Nusjuro immediately scolded.

"What you should be doing now is not asking us to stand up for you, but begging Fleet Admiral Orion for mercy to spare your life!"

Before Shalria could respond, Orion suddenly turned his head.

"Hey hey hey, Lord Ethanbaron, it's not that serious. She merely offended me with a few words. It's not a capital offense, not a capital offense! I'm not that cruel!"

????

Ethanbaron met Orion gaze, his facial muscles twitching uncontrollably.

You just ordered the extermination of two major Celestial Dragon families and now you have the audacity to claim you're not that cruel?

Orion didn't care what Ethanbaron was thinking.

He shifted his gaze to the so-called Five Elders' candidate across the room and asked with a smile.

"Lord Garling, this Celestial Dragon not only trespassed into the Chamber of Power but also offended me. While it's not a capital offense, she must still face punishment! As a candidate for the Five Elders, this is a good opportunity for you to get accustomed to your future duties. How do you think she should be dealt with?"

Garling laughed awkwardly, waving his hand "Ahahaha, I haven't officially joined the Chamber of Power yet. It's not appropriate for me to intervene in such matters!"

Orion replied seriously "Why not? You're the leader of the God's Knights. You have the authority to execute Celestial Dragons!"

"No, no" Garling deflected again, pointing to the Justice God across the room.

"This incident occurred in the Hall of Power. It should be handled by Saint Topman Warcury, the Justice God!"

"Is that so?" A sly smile flashed across Orion lips. "Perhaps during your next rotation, you'll be assigned as the Justice God."

With that, Orion immediately turned to Topman Warcury "Right, Lord Warcury?"

Hearing this, Garling eyes tightened slightly.

It was clear that Orion was pushing him into a confrontation with Topman Warcury, Ethanbaron V Nusjuro Nusjuro, and Jaygarcia Saturn, aiming to plant a seed of discord among them.

Topman Warcury brow furrowed slightly. He understood Orion intentions but couldn't show it.

He spoke calmly "Shalria trespassed into the Chamber of Power and offended Fleet Admiral Orion. The crime warrants execution!"

At these words, Shalria body stiffened, her eyes filled with despair as she looked at Topman.

"No need, no need!"

Just as Shalria thought she was doomed, Orion suddenly interjected.

"I said it before, Shalria crime is not worthy of Death! Since none of you have proposed a fair punishment, I'll handle it myself."

After a brief pause, Orion pretended to ponder deeply as he looked at Shalria.

"If I recall correctly, your father is Roswald. Although the Roswald family resides in the Holy Land, they have numerous assets in the Sabaody Archipelago!"

"From now on, all the assets of the Roswald family will be confiscated and handed over to the Marine for management. As for you..."

At this point, Orion suddenly looked around and noticed that Sengoku and Zephyr were sitting far away, one enjoying senbei with a look of contentment and the other leisurely sipping tea.

He then continued "I have a piece of farmland in the Holy Land. From now on, you will be fully responsible for watering, fertilizing and loosening the soil. If the vegetables and fruits you grow meet my satisfaction, you may live!"

"Otherwise, your family will be expelled from the Holy Land."

"That's my decision."

Without giving Shalria a chance to react, Orion waved his hand decisively.

"Guards, take her out!"

The two guards who had followed him into the Chamber of Power dared not delay.

Trembling with fear, they disregarded Shalria status as a Celestial Dragon and dragged her out of the chamber as if fleeing for their lives.

Meanwhile, Orion shifted his posture, crossing his legs as he turned to face Garling with a calm smile.

"I have no objections to your becoming a candidate for the Five Elders!"

"However—"

"Since you've become a candidate for the Five Elders, shouldn't you vacate your position as the leader of the God's Knights?"
