Mary Geoise

On the Red Road, the ruins of Mary Geoise have now become a giant, semi-circular pit.

The former Mary Geoise has long since vanished without a trace. Even Devil Fruit User with spatial abilities cannot find any clues in these ruins.

But this was naturally no challenge for Vegapunk. In fact, even without going to the world of One-Punch Man for further studies, given a year or two of careful research, Vegapunk might still be able to open this spacetime rift.

Not to mention that Vegapunk's research on space has now reached a limit. He has already sensed the city in the spacetime rift simply by relying on his ability to manipulate gravity and electromagnetic force.

However, Vegapunk did not use his abilities to directly open a portal to Mary Geoise. Instead, to save power and for convenience, he began to build a time-space teleportation machine.

The Red Line had long been the headquarters of Vegapunk's robots, with all sorts of materials and processing equipment readily available. Combined with Vegapunk's Electromagnetic Ability, a massive portal over ten meters high was created in just half a day.

"Great, that should be fine now!"

Vegapunk looked at the portal in front of him, nodded slightly, and then opened it.

A pale blue beam of light shot straight into the sky, and the enormous energy was transformed into wave after wave of spatial distortion by the portal.

With the infusion of massive spatial energy, a tiny black dot first appeared at the very center of the Space Gate, then transformed into clusters of pale blue Uzumaki, which were eventually completely fixed in place by the surrounding Space Gate. When the blue light disappeared, the group of people immediately saw the scenery of Mary Geoise on the other side.

Vegapunk and Dragon were at the forefront, charging straight into Mary Geoise, followed by a large number of robots and Revolutionary Army soldiers.

Perhaps because their arrival was so sudden, the entire Mary Geoise was caught off guard, and the city was deserted and silent, which surprised both Dragon and Vegapunk.

A powerful electromagnetic wave instantly spread out. Vegapunk frowned. Based on the feedback from the electromagnetic wave, he discovered that it wasn't that Mary Geoise was unprepared, but rather that there seemed to be very few living people left in Mary Geoise.

The original slaves of Mary Geoise are now almost all dead, and the few remaining CP0 members, Holy Land Guardians, and similar figures are also few in number.

The Celestial Dragons were originally staying in Mary Geoise seemed to have fallen into a state of neither life nor death under the influence of electromagnetic waves and Observation Haki. According to Vegapunk's estimation, they should be in a state of dormancy.

Could it be that those Celestial Dragons ruined themselves?

Vegapunk and Dragon exchanged glances, but neither of them thought too much about it. Instead, they headed towards the place where the Celestial Dragons were resting.

Besides the Celestial Dragons in hibernation, Vegapunk also sensed that there were some living beings in the places where the Celestial Dragons were hibernating. Although he didn't know who they were, they were definitely of higher status than the guards on the outer perimeter.

As they traveled, Vegapunk opened his personal Portable Space, and Hancock and the others immediately stepped out.

In reality, Vegapunk didn't want Hancock to participate in this operation. He himself didn't care, since it was just a clone with 1% of his power, and at most he would only lose 1% of his power. Hancock, on the other hand, was really going to take a risk.

While Hancock's strength in direct combat would place her at the peak of Dragon rank or above in the One-Punch Man World, that doesn't mean she's risk-free in Mary Geoise.

However, the hatred between Hancock and the Celestial Dragons ran too deep, and even Vegapunk couldn't persuade her to give up, so he could only bring her here directly.

Fortunately, given Hancock's strength, the possibility of her being defeated in Mary Geoise is extremely small. Vegapunk even gave her his Phoenix Armor, further enhancing Hancock's survivability.

Besides Hancock, characters like Katakuri, Kozuki Hiyori, Yamato, Ace, and Marco also reside in Vegapunk's space. These individuals were brought here by Vegapunk, and of course, they themselves were also very interested in traveling to Mary Geoise.

As for characters like Stussy and Nami, they had no intention of fighting in Mary Geoise.

Dragon glanced at Vegapunk with some surprise, seemingly not expecting him to have so many powerful fighters with him. However, he only glanced at him and his attention was still focused on Mary Geoise.

Following the senses of his Observation Haki, Vegapunk soon spotted the magnificent building in the distance. As expected, it was Pangaea, the very center of Mary Geoise Pangea Castle.

"So, the vast majority of Celestial Dragons are in hibernation here? But I wonder how much effort the Five Elders put into getting those idiots to hibernate so cleanly."

Vegapunk looked up at Pangea Castle. He had been here before when he was cooperating with the World Government, but he hadn't had a very good impression of it.

The Celestial Dragons' arrogance and stupidity always gave Vegapunk the urge to crack open their skulls and give them a shock.

"Who are you?! How dare you trespass into Pangea Castle!"

A warning sound rang out, snapping Vegapunk out of his reverie and focusing his attention on the gates of Pangea Castle.

A tall, strong old man with a goat-like beard stood in front of them, his fists clenched. Behind him stood a dozen or so imposing CP0 agents.

Furthermore, several armored guards blocked the gates of Pangea Castle. Vegapunk swept his Observation Haki over them, a smile appearing on his lips:

"I never imagined that the Holy Land Mary Geoise would have only a handful of guards left in the end?"

According to Vegapunk's electromagnetic induction, apart from the innermost part of Pangea Castle, where there were some other life forms in the center of the dormant Celestial Dragons, all the remaining people in Mary Geoise should have gathered here.

"So it's you... the Revolutionary Army and the Umbrella Corporation! I didn't expect you to be able to find Mary Geoise. It seems you've come to eliminate us completely!"

The old man standing at the very front squinted and snorted coldly, his imposing aura surprising even Vegapunk.

This guy must be one of the strongest in the ocean, but he looks quite old. Is he just staying here to retire?

The old man's gaze finally settled on Vegapunk, and as if he had thought of something, he spoke softly:

"You must be Vegapunk! I can't believe you look so young, even though you're only twenty or thirty years younger than me!"

"If those Celestial Dragons knew you had the ability to make people young again, you would probably have been arrested long ago."

Vegapunk chuckled softly and looked at the old man before him:

"That's interesting, but it's pointless. Do the Celestial Dragons not want to capture me? They clearly can't capture me at all!"

"But old man, you don't seem to have much respect for the Celestial Dragons either. Why are you blocking our way? I haven't sensed any life force in Mary Geoise. Your colleagues should all be dead by now, right?"

"Don't tell me their deaths have nothing to do with the Celestial Dragons!"

At any time, the sorrow of losing a friend is inevitable. With all the agents and guards of Mary Geoise dead, less than 20 people remain. Vegapunk doesn't believe they are without resentment.

When the Celestial Dragons were powerful and the World Government ruled the world, these complaints could only remain complaints, or even just resentment, and would not be put into words.

But in the current situation, with the World Government only able to control Mary Geoise, it would be truly strange to say that these people are still loyal to the Celestial Dragons.

"Hmph, I do indeed have no good feelings towards the Celestial Dragons and the World Government, but as for making me betray them, forget it!"

The old man chuckled coldly, his clenched fists enveloped in a dark aura of Haki. At the same time, a powerful Conqueror's Haki erupted from his aged body.

"I never expected it to be you, Fleet Admiral Steelbone..."

Just then, Long took two steps forward and murmured something, dropping a bombshell as he spoke.

"Steel Bones Kong? "Vegapunk was slightly taken aback, then looked closely at the old man. In a vague way, he did seem to resemble the former Fleet Admiral and later Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces who occasionally appeared in the manga.

However, this commander-in-chief is merely a background character in the comics and doesn't leave a deep impression.

There are some differences between two-dimensional comics and three-dimensional real people, which is why Vegapunk didn't recognize him at first glance.

However, it doesn't matter whether you recognize him or not. This former Fleet Admiral was just a background character in the comics, and his personality and style were not revealed at all. In this case, even if you knew his identity, it wouldn't make any difference.

Ganggu Kong looked up at the dragon, a hint of melancholy on his face:

"It's that kid from the Garp family! You've grown up so much in the blink of an eye... I never imagined that after leaving the Navy, you would achieve such great things, and you're even close to overthrowing the World Government!"

"I knew you were going to be a troublemaker from the start, and now it seems I was right. You really are Garp's son!"

Dragon's expression was somewhat serious as he looked at the former Fleet Admiral, his voice low and husky:

"I will always remember the care that the Fleet Admiral Kong took for me when he was in the Navy. It's a pity that we are now on opposing sides and can only be enemies."

"Hmph, I don't need your comfort, you brat!"

Steel Bones Kong advanced step by step, his eyes gradually becoming more intense, and finally looked at Vegapunk.

Although Vegapunk didn't understand why this old guy was so loyal to the World Government, he didn't care.

Even though his physical body only possesses one percent of his current strength, it is still not so easy to deal with.

Not to mention, Steel Bones Kong had no chance to make a move against Vegapunk!

Not to mention Vegapunk, even before Hancock could make a move, Ace, Marco, Marco, Kozuki Hiyori, Katakuri Yamato others stood in his way.

Former Fleet Admiral! What a prestigious title! For Katakuri crew, this is a rare opponent they can face at full strength after their power-ups.

These people were already rare monsters on the high seas. After being strengthened by Vegapunk and undergoing more than a year of training, their strength was almost on par with that of Marine Admiral or one of the Four Emperors.

However, despite their increased strength, they did not encounter any opponents of equal caliber. After the World Government retreated, even the Navy became their ally, leaving them with nowhere to fight.

Of the original Four Emperors of the sea, only Red-Haired Shanks remains. However, Shanks is not a true enemy; even when they occasionally clash, it is only a brief encounter.

This is precisely why Vegapunk's subordinates are all eager to attack Steel Bones Kong.

"Dr. Vegapunk, everyone at Umbrella Corporation, leave the Fleet Admiral Kong to me!"

At this moment, Long stepped forward, looking at Kong with a determined gaze. Kong was slightly taken aback, then revealed a knowing smile.

"Fine, let me see what kind of descendants that bastard Garp has raised!"

"Then, old Fleet Admiral, please be careful!"

Once he confirmed that the enemy was the culprit, the dragon's expression lost all warmth, and he instantly transformed into a whirlwind, hurtling into the sky.

Kong let out a wild laugh, his muscles bulged, and with a ripping sound, his black suit was completely pulverized. Black hair grew all over his body, and he pounded his chest with both hands, transforming into a giant Masira that was seventy or eighty meters tall.

The whirlwind formed by the dragon instantly solidified into an invisible dragon claw, which slammed down in an instant. The giant Masira, not to be outdone, also slammed down with its fist, which was wrapped in Conqueror's Haki!

With a thunderous roar, the storm dissipated, and Conqueror's Haki swept across the entire area. At the same time that Dragon and Ganggu Kong made their move, their subordinates also began to fight.

In Mary Geoise, those loyal dogs of the World Government who have survived to this day are truly elites; those who were slightly weaker would have died long ago.

This time, the people that Dragon brought to Mary Geoise were also the elite troops carefully selected by the Revolutionary Army. The strength of the two sides was evenly matched, and they were locked in a fierce battle in an instant.

Vegapunk stood on the outskirts of the battlefield, showing no intention of intervening in the fighting or heading towards Pangea Castle. He also stopped his other subordinates, only allowing the combat robots to enter Pangea Castle.

Pangea Castle, the Five Elders and Imu still had some tricks up their sleeves. Vegapunk didn't want to go and test the waters directly, so he simply sent the robot in first to help trigger the traps.
