Stray Dogs! Freedom! The Seven Monarchs!
What the rebel leader held in his hand was the head of the king who ruled the country.
On that blood-stained face, there still lingered disbelief, shock, and profound despair.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Roa burst out laughing instantly.
It wasn't just ordinary laughter anymore; he was laughing wildly, maniacally, and uncontrollably.
"Did you hear that? Whitebeard, now you are the enemies of this country!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Having roughly figured out the situation, Loki laughed heartily as well. "So, now it's our turn to protect this country."
Right?
"What a clever boy, Loki!"
Roa laughed heartily and said approvingly, "Now all we have to do is drive those shameful invaders out of this country!"
"What have you done?!"
The earth shook violently.
Whitebeard's roar shook the world once again.
The sky blurred, the earth shattered, and the sea surged with waves that seemed to boil.
Wow!
Loki screamed, his body trembling violently, making him feel numb all over.
"What an exaggerated guy!"
He's already no less impressive than his father, is he?
Was it not just Roa, but another of Rocks's subordinates who was also this strong?
Even in his rage, Whitebeard didn't attack the rebels. He simply roared, "Why did you do this! Haven't I treated you well enough?!"
Even though they launched a rebellion, and the previous war caused a large number of civilian casualties, they were not held accountable in the end!
"How many times do we have to repeat ourselves, because you are hindering the development of this country!"
The rebel leader, at this moment, was in no way inferior to Whitebeard in terms of imposing manner. "Why do you think our covert expansion has been so successful?"
Why are so many people willing to support us? Why were we able to so easily win over the officers, and even get the army to defect directly?
Because everyone yearns for change!
Whitebeard's furious expression suddenly stopped, and his body trembled almost imperceptibly.
"Having witnessed the world of light, no one can endure the darkness! You only want to maintain the old ways, but who wants to live a life of unchanging poverty forever?"
"Whitebeard! Now we truly represent this nation!"
The rebel leader roared, "And what right do you have to stop this country from becoming better! How arrogant of you!"
That was awesome!
Roa looked extremely pleased; he had successfully resolved the foreshadowing! The title of "King of Foreshadowing" was truly impressive!
The Whitebeard's pupils trembled.
So, have they now become the enemies of this country?
"Pops?"
Marco, along with the other members of the Whitebeard Pirates, also wore blank expressions.
What should we do now?
Who are the enemies of this country, and who are their friends, and what should they do?
They were truly at a loss for what to do, and instinctively looked at their most respected Pops, awaiting his decision.
Whitebeard was also completely stunned.
So, is he now standing on the opposite side of this country?
Roa, however, became the savior these guys were cheering and eagerly anticipating?
"Whitebeard!"
The rebel leader roared at the Whitebeard one last time, "This country doesn't welcome you! Get out!!"
Hahaha! This is so funny!
Loki couldn't stop laughing. "He kept saying he'd protect this country, but he was abandoned by the very country he wanted to protect!"
"How pitiful!"
Teach said with a mocking expression, "Even a powerful man like Whitebeard can be abandoned?"
"Like a clown!"
Doflamingo chuckled maniacally, "Now there's no point in fighting anymore, what is he going to do?"
Don't be careless.
Although Dylan had a slight smile on his face, his tone remained serious. He said solemnly, "Be careful, Whitebeard might do something desperate."
"Hahaha! Dylan, don't you understand yet?"
Teach chuckled, "There won't be any more fighting, we've won a great victory!"
The premise of sacrificing one's life for this island is no longer present. Can Whitebeard still lead all his beloved children in a life-or-death battle?
"Come to think of it, something's not quite right about this situation, is it?"
Moria frowned. "Was it... Boss who did it?"
Is it really possible to flatter someone to this extent?
"That kind of thing doesn't matter, right?"
Bege chuckled, "Whatever the means, a win is a win!"
He didn't care, but some people did.
"Roa!"
The roar shook the heavens and the earth once more, "You were the one who did this, weren't you?"
Roa casually raised his chin. "That's why I said that. How arrogant you are, Whitebeard. Are you saying that the people of this country have no right to decide its direction because it doesn't go your way, so it's normal for me to interfere?"
It's a complete injustice! This time, it really wasn't me, Luo, who was up to something!
These inexplicable little things are all Morgans' responsibility, okay? I just occasionally listen to their reports.
"That's right! Whitebeard! Don't even think about slandering Lord Roa!"
The rebel leader, filled with righteous indignation, raised his weapon and pointed it at Whitebeard, shouting, "They've come to save this country!!"
"If you want to be an enemy of Lord Roa, then let us be your enemies first! Let us step over our dead bodies!!"
His actions seemed to inspire everyone, and at the same time, everyone raised their weapons, pointing them directly at the Whitebeard Pirates.
"Pops!"
Vista silently gritted his teeth, "Now, what should I do?"
The people they were willing to do anything to protect had actually turned their guns on them!
Is there anything more infuriating in the world?
How could anyone be so stupid!
Can't tell who's good and who's bad?
Whitebeard remained silent.
What can be said now?
It's all over.
"It seems this is the end of it!"
Roa snapped his fingers. "Let's go collect our spoils."
So the Giant Snail slowly started moving again, advancing along the shattered coastline.
As they approached, the rebels, their faces beaming with joy, rushed forward to greet them, shouting, "Go to Lord Roa's side! Join forces with them! Let's change the course of this country, starting now!"
"You bastards! They must be behind this!"
Marco stared intently at the approaching snails, and then at Roa perched atop one of them. "Pops, shall we fight?"
Whitebeard was also looking at Roa, his eyes filled with indescribable anger.
But will this anger be able to erupt?
But Roa didn't even bother to give them another glance.
He simply looked at the overjoyed rebels who rushed forward, and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Now, lead us to take over this country." "Yes, Lord Roa!"
The rebel leader was overjoyed, "We've waited for this day for far too long! Now, it's your turn to change this country!!"
Roa Ya glanced at the guy.
According to Morgans, this guy wasn't one of their people; he just genuinely believed that the arrival of the Calamity Company would bring about unprecedented changes to the country.
"Roa, don't be so arrogant!!"
Roa's blatant disregard for the Whitebeard Pirates enraged Vista, a high-ranking officer of the Whitebeard Pirates, who practically gritted his teeth, "Who do you think we are?!"
"So"
Upon hearing this, Roa finally turned around, looking at Vista with interest. "Still want to fight?"
The moment his eyes met Roa's, Vista felt an indescribable fear. Roa's calm gaze seemed to conceal immense terror, and cold sweat immediately streamed down his face.
Seeing that Vista didn't answer, Roa turned to Whitebeard, "Now it's your turn to answer me, Whitebeard!"
"Fight? No way!"
The Whitebeard remained silent.
His beloved children also fell silent.
Given the current situation, is there still any need for fighting?
"Ha ha ha ha! It's all just bluffing! I thought they actually had the guts to start a war!"
Teach's face was full of mockery, and he said mercilessly, "So all you dare to do is talk tough?"
Instinctively, Whitebeard looked at him.
Then, even at this moment, Whitebeard suddenly paused in surprise.
That look! Could this brat be Rocks' son?!
The son of Rocks and the son of Harald...
Just who are the people Roa has gathered under his command?!
"Ha, it seems that it really has come to an end."
Roa chuckled. "If you understand, then get out of my country—no, get out of my waters. Hmm—" He paused, then his smile widened, "Or better yet, get out of the New World. There's nowhere for you to hide in these waters."
Upon hearing this, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates all turned pale.
Is this really the case?
As Roa said, if they left here, there would be no place for them in the New World.
This sea area has already been divided up by Roa and his companions, and no matter where they go, battle is inevitable.
Let's go.
Having said that, Roa became too lazy to bother with the Whitebeard Pirates' valuables and prepared to take over the country.
"Roa!"
But at that moment, Whitebeard suddenly roared.
"Oh?"
Roa turned around with great interest.
Then they heard Whitebeard's furious voice, "If you dare to act recklessly on this island, I will absolutely not let you get away with it!"
Roa paused for a moment, then...
"Ha ha ha ha!"
He was too lazy to answer, and just turned around while laughing loudly.
What kind of premium Guinan is this?
Isn't this just like those victims whose lovers were cruelly taken away by blond-haired thugs? In their final moments, all they could do was utter some harsh words to the blond-haired thugs and ask them to take good care of the female protagonist.
Is this the joy of NTL (Netorare, a form of sexual activity)?
Oh, Moses Roy!
Completely ignoring the Whitebeard Pirates, the snails quickly crossed the dilapidated coastline and moved towards the interior of this ruined country.
Whitebeard watched them leave, his gaze fixed on the sword in his hand. The light waves generated by the Vibration Fruit repeatedly condensed on the blade, only to dissipate in despair.
He knew, of course, that the country would not fare well once it fell into Roa's hands.
But this country has already sided with Roa. Must he risk the lives of all his children for this country that doesn't welcome him?
"Pops?"
Suddenly, Marco noticed that his Pops's back, which was taller than a mountain, had become somewhat hunched.
"Let's go, children,"
Whitebeard could only sigh dejectedly, "Leave this country."
He paused, then said, "Let's leave the New World."
The Whitebeard Pirates' spirits immediately plummeted.
In the end, is escape by wolves and foxes the only option?
There was nothing that could be done.
From the very beginning, this war was already lost.
They could only follow behind Whitebeard as Wolf-Fox made his exit.
Loki turned back to watch them silently depart, his eyes narrowing. "They look like a pack of dogs."
"This is what they call,"
Roa chuckled, "A stray dog, huh."
This time, they are truly a homeless dog in the truest sense.
Not to mention this country, they have nowhere to stay in the entire New World.
As for whether Shiki and his crew would seek cooperation with Whitebeard, Roya wasn't worried at all.
Putting aside whether Whitebeard wanted revenge, which of those narrow-minded uncles and aunts could tolerate a Whitebeard Pirates on their territory?
"Lord Roa!"
The rebel leader, who was happily running after the Giant Snail, looked up, his voice filled with excitement, "I entrust this country to you from now on!"
"Please ask me?"
Roa smiled. "No, wait, it's asking yourself."
"Huh?"
The man was taken aback.
"I have no interest in ruling."
Roa smiled and said, "How you govern this country is your own business; I won't interfere. I will only create the freest environment for you, so you can do whatever you want."
"Oh!!"
The man's eyes lit up immediately, "Freedom?"
Roa laughed and said, "It's true freedom beyond your imagination."
"Are we free to sail the seas? Are we allowed to trade with other countries?"
The man pressed for more questions.
"Sure,"
Roa said with a smile, "All the nations in this sea under my rule are brothers and sisters, even Elbaf."
"But as you know, I won't interfere in the internal affairs of your countries, so how the relationship develops depends on you."
That's more than enough!
An indescribable longing appeared on the man's face. "Lord Roa! I'm so glad you came!"
That Whitebeard was indeed slandering Lord Roa!
This lord has absolutely no interest in the barren land of the Sphinx! He wants to create a truly free environment!
"Oh, right,"
Roa added, "Of course, the taxes can't be less."
"Of course! You've helped us so much, we'll definitely repay you!"
Dylan couldn't help but find the excited man somewhat amusing.
True freedom means that the Boss won't care about anything in this sea area.
Whether it's pirates, gangsters, bandits, or wars and plunder between nations.
Leave everything to the wind!
But at the same time, the heavy taxes cannot be reduced by a single penny, oh, not to mention the mandatory cost of purchasing weapons.
It's already foreseeable that this sea area will become a super-sized Beehive Island.
The law of the jungle prevails, and chaos reigns.
Roa was smiling too.
Ultimately, what blond guy would care about a female lead who casually reveals her ahegao (evil face)?
Treating a cow as a prized possession—this kind of plot only appears in idol dramas, or rather, a version specifically for middle-aged women. Where do you find so many stories of domineering CEOs falling for materialistic, divorced women with children?
In any case, with the departure of the Whitebeard Pirates, there is no longer any force in this sea area capable of resisting the Calamity Company, and this sea area has been largely occupied by Roa.
Meanwhile, Roa's allies are also making good progress, having conquered most of the Demon King's territory.
At this point, the New World was essentially ruled by the pirate alliance of seven.
The seven monsters each established their own empires in one of the seven seas of the New World.
The concept was first introduced in the New World Special Edition of the World Economic News newspaper.
These seven monsters reign supreme in the New World, unmatched by anyone!
Therefore, they are the Seven Monarchs of the New World!
Roa was quite pleased with the name Morgans had come up with.
Quite classy, Seven Monarchs of Hell, huh?
It sounds better than "Seven Emperors," which sounds like a card game.
