An extraordinarily exaggerated slash mark appeared across the cliff face of the Red Line.
Who could have done it?
While everyone was shocked, they couldn't help wondering.
"Boss, can you do that...?"
Yasopp moved beside Shanks and asked in a low voice.
Shanks stared at the slash mark that had completely cleaved through the Red Line, then shook his head.
That unknown slash had carved a passage straight through the Red Line, wide enough for ships to pass through.
It was difficult to imagine how much power it had taken to accomplish such a thing.
Not to mention him—even Captain Roger, were he still alive, would never have been able to do it.
And...
The appearance of this slash mark held extraordinary significance for the entire sea.
Beckman, the Red-Haired Pirates' second-in-command, had clearly realized this as well. He raised a hand to take the cigarette from his mouth and looked toward Shanks.
Shanks also turned to look at Beckman, as if they shared the same understanding.
Their gazes met in midair, and they knew they had reached the same conclusion.
If the person who could slash through the Red Line was willing to carve open a few more passages...
Then.
The four seas would converge in one place, achieving true interconnection.
The changes in the ocean currents could also bring earth-shaking changes to the Calm Belt and the Grand Line.
As a result, through one chain reaction after another, people would come to understand this sea anew.
Shanks and Beckman thought silently to themselves.
But what they should be thinking about now was not what impact this passage would have on the entire sea.
"Is it over?"
Shanks and Beckman raised their heads and looked above the Red Line.
What entered their eyes was an unreachable height and distance.
