All Is Ready but the East Wind
More and more One Piece are being blessed, and even characters from the Worst Generation are appearing one after another.
The 'tide' stirred up by the God Slayer has already swept across the first half of the Grand Line.
The Five Elders naturally couldn't sit still.
They stood by and watched, simply wanting to ascertain whether Oboro's abilities... that divine power had any limitations. But judging from the current situation, there were none at all... Oboro seemed capable of granting countless people new 'power,' and it seemed he could bless the entire world if he so desired.
After the agents disguised themselves as One Piece and gained power, they immediately returned to the Holy Land of Mary Geoise to report.
After so much research, Vegapunk has finally reached a conclusion.
Those One Piece who transformed from humans into the newborn Demon Tribe didn't seem to have their genes altered by foreign bloodlines, because if it were like the Lineage Factor technology he possessed, then a portion of human genes would inevitably remain within them. But the result was genetic evolution, not fusion... Considering the conditions under which Oboro could unleash divine power, such a method of altering bloodlines could only be unimaginable divine power.
It should be noted that the bodies of the One Piece who were transformed into the Demon Tribe in the North Blue were 'picked up' by the government and sent to Vegapunk.
Another piece of bad news is that Vegapunk wanted to try extracting the Lineage Factor of this newborn Demon Tribe for technological fusion, but unfortunately... with the death of the main body, all the bloodline genes in its body also completely collapsed.
It cannot be reused.
As the Sabaody Archipelago grows larger, it has seriously affected the safety and lives of residents in other neighborhoods, in addition to the Lawless Area.
Moreover, there are also a large number of One Piece from all over the world who want to land on the island and seek blessings.
If things don't get out of control, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The Five Elders then issued the order.
One day, Marineford, the Marine Headquarters, dispatched a fleet led by an admiral.
Besides Admiral Kizaru, there is also the Marine Headquarters' science unit, namely the Pacifista led by Sentomaru.
In addition, two more general candidates were added: Chaton and Momousagi.
The reason for such a large-scale mobilization is mainly because they are wary of the Hell Pirates.
This time, in order to give One Piece all over the world a warning or a signal, the World Government did not leak any information or give any warning before launching its attack, and prepared to carry out a large-scale annihilation by surprise.
"That's about enough."
On the other side, on the hill of Grove 5, gazing at the familiar black crowd, he thought to himself.
Dom is standing right next to him; he has already rejoined the team ahead of schedule.
The other members arrived soon as well, and several remained on Sabaody Archipelago and did not leave.
I simply went to other neighborhoods and had free time.
Dom brought news that the Straw Hat Pirates had arrived on the island.
Oboro was very good at timing. He had been intentionally controlling the number and scale of the blessings he bestowed... Otherwise, by simply 'giving' others power, he could have made several times, or even dozens of times, more One Piece stronger in two or three days than he does now.
He was 'in control' of when the navy would act.
If they schemed to such an extent, the Five Elders would lose their temper.
A large number of 'outsiders' have already appeared on the island, and the tide of One Piece that have come in droves is already beginning to emerge... This is just the beginning, and the World Government will never allow the situation to escalate further.
Reaching Sabaody Archipelago will take some time; sailing the Grand Line is not an easy task to begin with.
Eustass Kid, Killer, X Drake, Capone Bege from the Worst Generation all appeared one after another and gained power from him.
Long had already seen the personalities and auras of these people.
Indeed... each has its own characteristics.
Now, apart from Bonney, Law, Luffy, and Zoro, all the members of the Worst Generation have benefited from him.
Luo comes almost every day, and Oboro can sense it, but he never shows up... He'd rather not have any so-called divine power; this kid is a bit too cautious. Bonney is also in Sabaody Archipelago; the little girl is simply not interested in this 'event'.
Now that Luffy has arrived in Sabaody Archipelago, then... given his personality, he'll definitely come too.
According to information from Water 7, Luffy keeps saying he wants to catch up with the Hell Pirates and teach Oboro, that heinous captain, a lesson, just like he did to Enel. He wants to give his friends in Skypiea and Water 7 an explanation.
The Straw Hat Pirates' Thousand Sunny has arrived, Iceburg has informed Dom, and the Hell Pirates' Blood Pluton is almost finished... just waiting for them to come and collect the goods.
Crocodile, who was not in the Sabaody Archipelago, had already led the others back to Water 7.
They settled in the Sabaody Archipelago, but it took quite a long time... partly to wait for these Supernova, and partly to wait for the Hell Pirates' flagship.
Now... everything is ready, except for the final push.
It's worth mentioning that Doflamingo sent word that Blackbeard Teach has successfully become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
Fire Fist Ace has been taken to Impel Down.
The way Teach volunteered to become Marshall D. Teach was unprecedented since the establishment of the Shichibukai system.
However, this news has not yet spread... because right now, all eyes on the sea are focused on the Sabaody Archipelago.
"It's almost over. The real show is about to begin."
Long smiled.
Then, he looked up at the innocent white bear standing in front of him.
He stared at Bepo.
Bepo stared at him, blinking his little black eyes.
It's almost the end... Trafalgar Law still hasn't appeared, but a 'pet' has suddenly appeared... How long has it been since the initial blessing? It's taken Law so long to finally feel comfortable letting Bepo perform the baptism, which shows how vigilant he is.
And... it wasn't even the person in question.
He looked at Bepo again.
Bepo glanced at him again.
"..."
There was silence for a moment.
"You have been blessed, you may go now."
"Long reminded me."
The discontented voices of other One Piece could already be heard from down the mountain; some were cursing, and others were making threats.
It all boils down to getting Bepo out of here and making way for someone else.
Bepo's two bear ears twitched, showing no intention of leaving. It asked somewhat blankly, "You seem to be able to use that kind of power that changes a person's body... Can you give it to me?"
Its tone was quite sincere.
That's right, Oboro only gave it experience cards and skill cards.
But what Bepo clearly wanted was the Bloodline Card.
"Did your captain tell you to make this request?"
Long's heart stirred.
As expected of Luo, he has a keen eye and can see that the Bloodline Card is the key to enhancing 'core power'.
"No."
Bepo quickly shook his head.
Why do you want change?
Long curled the corners of her mouth.
He thought... the Mink Tribe were all quite cute.
Especially species like Bepo.
"Can I become a human?" Bepo asked expectantly, his small black eyes even shining.
"Reason."
"I'm surprised," Long said.
The Mink Tribe have an ancient history, and they should be very proud of their lineage and not look down on it.
"My fur is too thick... Sometimes when it's hot, I get so hot that I don't have any energy..."
Bepo said truthfully.
The reason is very simple... it's that simple.
It has nothing to do with Luo.
"Get down."
Long's expression froze, and she pointed down the mountain, speaking coldly and without any politeness.
What does this guy take his gift for?
Seeing that Obo seemed a little angry, Bepo's furry face scrunched up in fright. Then, he slumped his head and lowered it, as if he had been greatly shocked.
They left like zombies.
Before leaving, she turned her head slightly, her eyes glistening with tears, looking at Long with a very aggrieved expression.
But Long remained unmoved.
Dom, who knew Oboro very well, noticed something: the captain was giving this polar bear a bit of 'special treatment'.
Because if it were any other One Piece, let alone communicating, they would have been dead on the spot if they had even dared to make a greedy request.
"The second-in-command of the Heart Pirates seems to be a navigator... Mink Tribe... I can't quite remember his bounty... maybe a few hundred Beli? Like the Straw Hat Pirates' pet tanuki..." Dom squinted as he watched Bepo's departing figure.
