Nested Dolls! Father and Son!

North Blue, the base of the Revolutionary Army.

"Roa and his team are searching for teleportation arrays imprinted on the islands,"

Dragon's expression turned grave. "They want to destroy all the teleportation arrays in one fell swoop, so that the Divine Knight can no longer hinder them!"

We absolutely cannot let them succeed so easily!

Now that a large part of the North Blue has been sealed off by the Sea Beast, it won't be so easy for the Divine Knight to carve teleportation arrays again.

Once all those teleportation arrays are destroyed, the pirates' expansion will be unstoppable, and at least half of the North Blue will fall in an instant.

Although the Celestial Dragons are all trash, and the Divine Knight are all exceptional individuals, they have already caused considerable damage in just the short time they have gathered in the North Blue.

However, Dragon, who personally experienced that era, knew better than anyone what the seas under Roa's rule would look like.

We must never allow this part of the North Blue to become as free as that sea area back then. Everyone living in this sea area will fall into hell, unable to live or die.

So, for now, we can only suppress our disgust and help the World Government!

"But Mr. Dragon,"

Trafalgar Law, a young Revolutionary Army and son of Doctor Trafalgar, Flevance who co-founded the Self-Respect Army Dragon, said somewhat reluctantly,

"They're actually going to help the World Government..."

"I'm sorry, Luo, we are powerless against Roa, so for the sake of this sea area, we can only rely on the power of the World Government!"

Dragon looked at Law with a hint of apology in his eyes.

The child's parents are both Flevance whose families were destroyed because of the World Government.

His birth was not expected, as Platinum Lead Disease has been a hereditary condition.

However, Doctor Trafalgar was busy with work and it was too late when he discovered his wife was pregnant. Listening to the baby's heartbeat inside her, Doctor Trafalgar ultimately couldn't bring himself to do it.

And so Luo was born. Fortunately, this descendant of the Flevance has survived to this day.

Because he accidentally obtained a Devil Fruit.

A pang of sorrow flashed in Dragon's eyes as he thought of his old friend who had died of illness more than a decade ago.

If Law's abilities had appeared two years earlier, his old friend wouldn't have died, and many of the Flevance would have survived.

"..."

Luo didn't say anything more.

There was only silence.

He grew up in the Revolutionary Army and knew that Mr. Dragon was forced into this situation.

After decades of development, the Revolutionary Army has become quite powerful, especially in the North Blue. If they wanted to, they could easily instigate revolutions in dozens of countries, and they could overthrow quite a few in one fell swoop.

However, there's nothing that can be done. The two strongest and second strongest forces on this planet are currently at war in the North Blue. Apart from each other, there is simply no third party in the world that can even remotely rival them.

The powerful and well-equipped Revolutionary Army was as weak as an infant in the face of both sides.

However, even though I know this is because I was forced into it, the resentment in my heart still cannot be eliminated.

The World Government is the culprit behind the complete destruction of Flevance.

"Alright, Luo,"

Sabo, a young man from the Goa Kingdom in the East Blue Kingdom of Goa who was only eighteen years old, patted Law on the shoulder and said, "Wouldn't it be a good thing to let the World Government and the Pirate Alliance both suffer heavy losses?"

"Our strength is far too weak compared to either of them!"

Luo sighed helplessly.

"In any case, the World Government already knows about Roa's actions,"

Dragon said in a deep voice, "They will probably choose to turn the tables and catch the pirates who want to continue expanding off guard!"

Even though destroying Roa's fleets didn't resolve the crisis posed by the Sea Beast, it's still better than doing nothing.

Inside the royal palace of a certain country in the North Blue.

"You actually want to destroy all our teleportation arrays?"

The man, draped in a heavy cloak and dressed in a magnificent suit, the newly appointed commander of the Knights of God, Figarland Shamrock, sat on his throne and calmly spoke, "This was to be expected. I'm just curious, has the pirates' encroachment on the North Blue reached this point? They have people in every country."

Is this only the case in the West Blue, or is it the same in other sea areas?

He stood on the corpse of a man. The original king of this country had not yet met his end with the pirates' attack, but instead died at the hands of the Divine Knight who came to his aid.

"That Morgans guy has probably been one of Roa's men for a long time,"

Shepard Somaz, one of the Divine Knight, sat cross-legged on the ground, looking quite unrefined, and was devouring the food piled up in front of him. As he wolfed down his food, he mumbled something under his breath.

"Nobody knows exactly how many informants that guy has, but he knows about any news in any country in the world immediately."

"He has spies within the Navy, even,"

He paused for a moment, then added, "It's said that he has people in the government's intelligence system, and many government matters are only transparent to him."

"That damn guy too."

Shamrock said calmly, "But this is a good thing. They've been hiding, which makes it impossible for us to deal with them. The power of the Ancient Weapon is beyond our ability to contend with."

"Even though they're just some insignificant small fry, it's better than nothing."

In this world that is basically covered by ocean, who knows how many Sea Beasts are lurking in the deep sea.

Hundreds of thousands? Millions? Or even tens of millions?

Shamrock felt a little heavy-hearted.

Roa, that monster is something even they, the Divine Knight, cannot touch.

In this world, only Lord Imu can stand against him.

In fact, every time the Divine Knight went out in the West Blue and the North Blue, they were somewhat apprehensive, fearing that Roa would suddenly descend from the sky, as he possessed the power to truly break through immortality!

You really can die!

Even if Lord Imu could appear at any time, who could guarantee that no unexpected events would occur?

For these high-ranking, pampered Celestial Dragons, nothing is more important than their lives.

"Let's get moving! Let them destroy the original teleportation array!"

Shamrock said calmly, "We just need to carve more!"

They need to achieve some results, right? Otherwise, wouldn't they just look like useless people?

The sky above North Blue.

Inside the Calamity City, in the Royal Palace of Roa, monsters gathered together.

"Our people have already started destroying the teleportation array, Boss."

Morgans stood calmly before them, a smile playing on his lips. "If nothing unexpected happens, the Divine Knight shouldn't be idle either; they've probably been leaving behind even more teleportation arrays in sync."

"What's the point of all this?"

Kaido present, twitched at the corner of his mouth. "In the end, isn't it still about taking the initiative to lure them together and then catching them off guard?"

"Oh, that's not quite right, Mr. Kaido,"

Morgans chuckled and said, "If we do nothing and just launch a preemptive strike, the Divine Knight will naturally suspect something's amiss, and they might not dare to come."

"But if they think they can catch us off guard, then it's a different story!"

"That kind of thing doesn't matter at all!"

Kaido grinned. "Anyway, we're going to cause a ruckus again, aren't we!"

"That's exactly right."

Morgans chuckled.

"But Morgans,"

Charlotte Linlin looked at her old friend with great interest. "And when did you become Roa's lackey?"

"Of course, it starts from the very beginning!"

Morgans replied without hesitation, "Linlin, when I first met Boss at your tea party, I knew he was the man I would follow with everything! Speaking of which, I really have to thank you!"

That's absolutely true. Without a boss, it's hard to imagine how boring this world would be!

During the twenty-five years that the Boss was away, Morgans felt like he was going to die of boredom several times!

"You brat!"

Charlotte Linlin turned and glared at Roa, "You've been hiding it pretty well!"

Roa just smiled and said, "Aunt Linlin, there are many things you don't know."

"In short, let's attack."

The battle with the Divine Knight is actually meaningless.

Ultimately, all that group relied on was their teleportation ability and immortality.

For Roa himself, dealing with them would be a piece of cake.

However, the key point is that Imu's teleportation ability and immortality are both things that can be mass-produced, so they have absolutely no intrinsic value.

Moreover, even if he killed someone of the caliber of the Commander of the Knights of God, it would have virtually no impact on his final battle with Imu.

If these guys weren't so persistent and seriously hindering Roa's strategy, Roa really wouldn't have bothered with them.

After all, his appearance before the Divine Knight meant that Imu would most likely descend.

It's possible to run, but it's very troublesome.

They can't beat that guy yet, and Roa doesn't have masochistic tendencies.

But now that we're already here, right?

Just have some fun.

As storms brew in North Blue, on Fish-Man Island...

The soft light from the roots of the Eve Tree cascaded down from above the enormous hollow, illuminating the island, enclosed within a giant bubble, in a dreamlike state.

At that moment, a figure shot towards Fish-Man Island like an arrow released from a bow.

Behind this figure, a series of enormous Sea Beast followed closely behind.

Do you think you can keep up with my speed?

Coron took the lead, even calmly turning around to shout mockingly at the Sea Beast chasing after him.

But at that very moment, several more Sea Beast plummeted down from above.

"Again?"

Coron was not surprised; along the way, he had encountered far too many Sea Beast chasing and intercepting him.

This is even after Rayleigh and his crew have already lured away most of the Sea Beast.

What exactly is happening on Fish-Man Island?

Coron gritted his teeth and suddenly plummeted downwards, creating distance between himself and the Sea Beast above.

We're just one step away from the bubble of Fish-Man Island!

Uncle Rayleigh, Brother Shanks, Sister Robin, you must all be safe and sound!

Boom!

The seabed below suddenly burst open, and a huge mouth immediately lunged at Coron.

"I already noticed, you idiot!"

Coron descended into the eddy created by the open mouth of the Sea Beast hidden in the seabed.

Then, he suddenly accelerated by paddling, escaping the giant beast's mouth, and stomped heavily on its head. His body accelerated again like a cannonball, finally crashing headfirst into the bubbles of Fish-Man Island.

The bubble surrounding Fish-Man Island has two layers: one layer of air and one layer of seawater. This is to prevent humans from entering Fish-Man Island directly through the bubble instead of using the main gate.

However, such defenses were of no use to Coron, the half- Fish-Man, who passed through two layers of bubbles in one breath and entered the interior of the Fish-Man Island.

The moment he landed, he had already roughly determined his current location.

Dad! Mom, please don't let anything happen to you!

With that thought in mind, the boy immediately took off running towards home.

However, he hadn't run more than a few steps when he realized something was wrong.

He saw a vast expanse of ruins.

"This should be Waterwheel Town, right?"

Coron fell into a daze.

Houses, residents, coral—everything vanished, as if crushed by something enormous.

The ruins stretched forward, seemingly extending directly into the town.

What on earth happened?!

An unspeakable fear made the boy quicken his pace instantly.

Everything will be alright!

My dad's the Pirate King's left-hand man, how could anything possibly happen to him!

The anxious boy pressed on, quickly passing through the ruins, circling the town, and soon entered a coral jungle.

Because of his special status, his father built his home in a coral jungle some distance from the town.

Too anxious to waste any more time, Coron, covered in an aura of Haki, rampaged through the coral jungle, carving a path through it.

Soon, hidden among the coral reefs, a small house appeared before him.

"Dad! Mom! I'm home!"

In a panic and with trepidation, Coron pushed open the door.

His hands trembled as he pushed open the door, and for a moment he didn't even dare to look into the room.

He was terrified, afraid to see the nightmarish scene.

But.

"Coron?"

The gentle woman emerged from the kitchen, and upon seeing Coron, a delighted smile immediately spread across her face.

"Why are you back!"

Anna, Coron's mother, is a Fish-Man with the upper body of a gentle woman and the lower body of octopus tentacles.

Of course, as a mermaid woman over forty years old, she is capable of freely transforming her octopus tail into human legs.

"Mom!!"

Coron's eyes were glistening with tears of emotion as he rushed over and hugged his mother tightly.

"I'm so glad you're alright! I rushed back as soon as I heard about the incident on Fish-Man Island!"

"Where's Dad? Is he alright too?"

Upon hearing Coron's words, the woman, who had just been smiling, suddenly froze.

She hurriedly pushed her beloved son away and exclaimed, "Coron, let's go! Get off Fish-Man Island!"

"What?"

Coron was confused, then suddenly asked in alarm, "Mom? What happened to Fish-Man Island? Did something happen to Dad?"

Your father—

The woman's expression immediately became very complicated.

But.

"Hahaha! That voice! Is it Coron?"

Hearty laughter came from outside the door.

"Dad?"

Coron turned around in surprise and saw his father carrying a pile of seashells and seaweed—because his mother was a mermaid and didn't eat fish, the family's main food was usually shellfish and various seaweed.

You're alright?

Coron was overjoyed.

"Of course, what could possibly happen to me?"

Gaban happily put down what he was carrying, walked over to his eldest son, and patted him on the shoulder with a look of satisfaction. "Good lad, you've grown strong! Your time at sea wasn't in vain!"

"Of course! I've found a really great team!"

Coron said with a grin.

My parents are both safe and sound; my heart has finally settled down.

"Okay, okay, okay."

Gaban nodded repeatedly. "Where are your companions?"

As he spoke, he turned to his wife, whose expression was complicated. "Anna, do we have enough food at home? Perhaps I should go to town and buy some; we need to treat our friends from Coron to a good meal."

"No need, Dad, they didn't come!"

Coron waved his hands repeatedly, then he remembered the important matter, "Speaking of which, what exactly happened on Fish-Man Island?"

"I heard that Princess Shirahoshi was kidnapped by Roa, and that the riots on Aquaman's side were started under his control?"

"What's the situation with those ruins on the island? Were they destroyed by Roa?"

"If this island is already under Roa's control, then Mom and Dad, this time you should leave with me!"

"Coron!"

At this moment, his mother suddenly interrupted Coron, "You haven't been back for a long time, why don't you go to town and have some fun?"

"You can play anytime, Mom. I'm talking to Dad about serious business right now!"

Coron felt underestimated; he was now a pirate captain, not a playful child anymore.

"Dad, what exactly happened?"

"Leave?"

Gaban paused for a moment, then scratched his head. "Coron, that's impossible."

"Huh?"

Coron was taken aback, then said anxiously, "Dad! Fish-Man Island is very dangerous now, isn't it! Even if you're not afraid, think about Mom!"

"What are you saying, Coron? Fish-Man Island is the safest place right now."

Gaban took off the small sunglasses he was wearing on the bridge of his nose.

Looking into his eyes, Coron was immediately taken aback. "Dad, what's wrong with your eyes?"

"Looks cool, right? Hahaha, this was a gift from the Boss!"

Gaban laughed heartily, "The Boss said I should seal off Fish-Man Island, forbidding anyone from passing through the giant hole, and also forbidding any Fish-Man Island residents from leaving the island."

"Well, I need to ask Boss how to handle your situation of returning to Fish-Man Island from overseas. Don't worry, if Boss wants to punish you, I'll plead for you."

Coron staggered back two steps, looking at his familiar yet utterly unfamiliar old father, his voice trembling.

"Dad, who is this Boss you're talking about?"
