A Top-Tier Logia User Joining the Marines?

On this side of the Demon Slayer World...

Since the various countries were thoroughly defeated by the advanced combat forces of the Sea Star, the situation in the world has truly been turned upside down.

They already had a general understanding of the origins of the World Government.

After all, the former had no reason to continue concealing the truth, and even fueled the spread of this information.

This left countless people in a state of prolonged shock.

World Government from another world?

Absolutely incredible!

But the facts are right in front of everyone.

The Azure Dragon that destroyed London, the Bear that swallowed the hundreds of thousands of Russian troops, the golden Daibutsu that appeared in New Delhi and was worshipped by all, Phoenix and Flame Pterosaur that soared over Washington.

Even the Goddess who still lingers on the Europa Continent, accompanied by the mythical 'Zeus' and 'Prometheus,' constantly travels to various countries in search of sweets.

All of this tells them that the world where the World Government is located is very likely the legendary Supreme Divine Realm!

Political leaders in various countries were at a loss for what to do.

Gather the remaining troops and start the war?

It seems unlikely they can win, and their troops would definitely not stand for it.

Having just suffered such heavy casualties, if they were to face a group of 'gods' with whom they had no chance of victory, they would most likely refuse orders and even turn their guns on themselves, the politicians.

Just when the countries were at a loss, the invitation from the World Government arrived.

They were told that, based on the invitations they received, they could attend the "Reverie" to be held in "Second Zone" a month later to discuss the future relationship between the two worlds.

This immediately caused a huge uproar and gave hope to high-ranking officials and even ordinary people in many countries.

What hope?

For the former, it represents hope for cooperation. If they could cooperate with the World Government, would they also have the opportunity to possess godlike supernatural powers in the future?

For the latter, however, it represents the hope for peace and stability.

Among these people, there are mainly three categories. One category consists of the majority of people mentioned above who just want to live a good life and at the same time have a certain curiosity about the World Government.

The second type is those who harbor hatred towards the World Government.

At present, this group is not small, after all, countless people died in the previous crackdown, and their relatives are naturally Wrath.

Especially in Southeast Asia, the Monkey kingdom of all kinds has been decimated by creatures like Shiryu, Onigumo, Doberman.

Shiryu, in particular, probably slaughtered two cities, leaving only chickens and dogs behind, with no one else alive!

The last and third type is quite interesting, and there are quite a few of them.

This includes White Elephant, camels, Italian Wolf, and even the Nippon people in the 'Second District' —countries with a wide range of religious beliefs, as well as believers of various religions in other countries.

They welcomed, were excited about, and even worshipped the existence of the World Government.

Logically speaking, it's not surprising that Buddhists would have such thoughts, since the golden Daibutsu did indeed 'descend' before them.

Oh, right.

The Japanese can understand this, since the Nippon Azure Dragon exists in their traditional culture.

What about followers of other religions?

It's quite simple. They figured that since the 'Divine Realm' where the World Government is located truly contains Buddha, the Phoenix Azure Dragon, the Phoenix, Titans, and even 'Zeus' and 'Prometheus', then their own gods are probably also there, they just didn't come this time!

Yes, the countless followers of various religions in the Demon Slayer World seem to imagine the Sea Star as a place where all gods gather, a true realm of the Sacred Land!

Therefore, these people wish that the World Government could completely control everything in this world, so that they could also be considered people of the 'Divine Realm'.

It is entirely possible that we will see more gods in the future, or even ascend to the 'Divine Realm' ourselves!

It's worth mentioning.

In fact, there is a small group of people who share similar sentiments with these believers, also hoping for the opportunity to join the World Government and travel to that Blue Star to see for themselves.

These people are scientists from various countries!

In their view, everything about the World Government was shrouded in mystery, representing new knowledge and new technology, especially the latter's methods of traversing the world and the underlying principles.

So.

It's fair to say that most people in the Demon Slayer World are eagerly anticipating the successful convening of the 'Reverie'.

Some visionaries have already realized that they are entering an unimaginable new era, New World, and a new future.

On the World Government's side.

Apart from Crocodile leading 200,000 Army troops stationed in the 'Second Special Zone', Sakazuki, Bullet, Newgate, Garp, and others have returned to the Sea Star Homeworld and gone back to their respective homes.

This experience greatly reduced the antagonism between them as 'navies' and 'One Piece'.

But it's unrealistic to expect to eliminate it entirely.

However, this is already good enough for the World Government. If these high-level combatants really had a good relationship, it wouldn't necessarily be a good thing for the government's top leadership.

Marine Headquarters, Marineford.

Everything here seems unchanged; the magnificent Justice Fortress still stands tall in the vast square, guarding the peace of the entire sea.

The word "justice" is the belief in the hearts of all naval personnel.

However, there seem to be far fewer people. It doesn't feel as bustling as before; instead, it has a desolate, sparsely populated feel.

There's no way around it; the Army, the police, and recently the Air Force, keep draining the navy's resources.

The problem is that those bastards don't want the Navy from the Four Seas branches, they only want the headquarters!

Sengoku, who had been in a bad mood because of these things, began to smile after returning from the Fleet Admiral's Office Demon Slayer World.

"Not bad, not bad, Garp, don't just stand there eating senbei, come and take a look at these ironclad warships too."

"I originally thought that since they were made entirely of metal, their excessive weight would severely hinder their speed. However, judging from this data, they are much faster than our current warships. Large warships can reach speeds of twenty to thirty knots, and small warships can even reach speeds of thirty to forty knots!"

Sengoku didn't sit down; he just stood there, his face full of excitement as he looked down at the pictures and texts of various ships, including battleships, cruisers, and torpedo boats, on the table.

Because their warships now use sails and paddle wheels, their speed is only around ten knots, which is often not enough to catch up with the smaller, lighter One Piece ships.

As for the accuracy of artillery fire, that's even more unreliable; it's purely based on luck.

"And the range of their artillery is all over ten kilometers, some even reaching twenty kilometers, it's amazing!"

On the sofa, Garp nonchalantly chewed on a senbei cracker and said, "It's pretty good, but the question is, are the higher-ups willing to make it for us?"

"Willing!"

"Before I came here, I stopped by the Supreme Command Council and had a chat with that Saint Nusjuro."

Sengoku looked at him with delight and smiled, "The result went very smoothly. They promised to upgrade our warships soon, and the original warships that were replaced will be converted into Flying Warship for the Air Force."

"Wow, so generous? They've stopped suppressing our navy?"

Garp stopped what he was doing in surprise.

"Perhaps. It seems that the land suppression has already been completed. Next, we will definitely need to strengthen our navy's strength, since the World Government's base is still Sea Star."

Just as Sengoku was feeling relieved, thinking that his suffering was about to end, the Den Den Mushi on the corner of the table rang, and he picked it up casually.

"Hello?"

A moment later, the Navy Fleet Admiral's eyes widened, and a delighted smile spread across his face. "Good, bring him to Marineford immediately!"

After hanging up the phone, Garp looked over in confusion.

"What's wrong?"

Sengoku couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Logia! Another top-tier Logia user is joining our Navy!"

Thank you so much
