The Final Battle (5)

An endless war involving hundreds of thousands of people.

Although the Red Line did not collapse as a result, its edges were gradually disintegrating...

Moreover, the land is full of wonders.

For example, the land within a hundred miles has turned into a dazzling glacial wasteland, showing no signs of melting even during the day; in another area a hundred miles away, countless sinkholes and a spiderweb-like network of canyons cover an area of dozens of miles; and in the deeper core of the land, terrifying tremors are causing everything to shake; across the entire boundless Red Line, there is a white sea of light shrouded in countless lightning bolts, and also arid deserts that have spread across the entire land in a short period of time...

These are all the works left behind by powerful individuals who have honed their Devil Fruit abilities to the extreme.

As the war intensified and time passed, more than half a month later... the lowest-ranking troops on both sides had been almost completely wiped out. Now, the battlefields have become more fragmented, with considerable distances between them, and the flames of war have spread to the heart of the entire Red Line, centered on Mary Geoise.

As for the Hell Pirates, they had already stormed into New Mariejois, an expansion of the resistance forces behind the lines.

They even rushed to the original site of Mary Geoise, which was Pangaea, the Pangaea Castle had visited before.

As for the characters who died in the story, Oboro has stopped counting them.

On the Navy's side, only Aokiji remained... Kizaru ultimately died at the hands of Bare.

The two Five Elders, Nasujuro and Saint Peter, also died with resentment. Given the unique nature of their life processes, Oboro made some minor adjustments to their souls. While they still possessed terrifying regenerative abilities, they weren't as overpowered, and could even ignore fatal wounds. This is because, if their physical abilities were intact, Yurivich and Doflamingo, along with the subsequent swarms of One Piece, could defeat the Five Elders.

However, killing both of them would be extremely difficult.

Therefore, it's equivalent to Oboro 'shutting down' the cheat codes of the two of them.

On the Revolutionary Army's side, only Monkey D. Dragon remained.

Currently, only tens of thousands of people remain alive on the entire Red Line.

Blood has stained the towering Red Line, the entire mountain wall, and even the seawater in the surrounding area.

The extent of the tragedy is evident.

In his mind's eye, the Will Tree, which was watching the One Piece world, burned fiercely before gradually turning to ashes.

He showed a satisfied expression.

"Captain, I can still fight."

A cold voice caused Oboro's spirit to return to its original form.

In the air, beside him, floated a person covered in blood.

It's Dom.

When he was in danger, Oboro saved him... Otherwise, Dom would have been drained and strangled by Green Bull's Devil Fruit power.

Even with Dom's strength, he should still be among those eliminated. The reason he survived longer than Waldo was mainly due to his Blood Demon Art, which allowed him to teleport... making it very suitable for evasion and concealment. But if he continued to participate, the result would be the same; he wouldn't survive.

As the first crew member to follow him, Oboro harbored some selfish motives, not wanting him to die in vain.

That's enough.

Long said something.

It was clear that Dom's injuries had been significantly healed through the demon's bloodline.

There's no need to continue.

Dom thought the captain meant that he had already tried his best and there was no need to take any risks.

But he immediately realized that what Oboro meant was... ending the war.

The situation has turned completely against them... Although the resistance forces have retreated to Pangaea Castle and are still fighting hard, in a few more days they should be able to completely destroy the former Celestial Dragons territory and kill Imu.

Is the captain going to take action himself?

Dom was taken aback.

The next second, his Observation Haki detected something 'strange'.

"Hey, hey, hey... no way, what kind of power is this...? Is that guy... really human?"

"It seems the rumors are true... The God Slayer is a monster from outer space."

Meanwhile, on the horizon above Pangaea Castle, a small black dot, exhausted and swaying Zhuangzhuang, appeared to be about to plummet. Marshall D. Teach, sitting on its back, suddenly narrowed his eyes, broke out in a cold sweat, and cried out in astonishment.

From his high vantage point, he looked down upon the corpses on the ground—both One Piece and resistance fighters—and saw them swaying as they stood up.

Although those long-dead, rotting corpses or incomplete remains did not stand up... the number of these relatively 'fresh' corpses that still retained relatively intact torsos was incalculable.

These figures surged toward Pangaea Castle like a swarm of ants.

Marshall D. Teach felt a chill run down his spine as he watched.

"Admiral... I can't take it anymore... We're going to fall."

"I haven't had a proper rest these past few days, I can't hold on any longer..."

"Let's go."

Doc Q stuck out its tongue, looking sickly and Exhaust.

"Hahahaha..."

Marshall D. Teach burst into laughter.

"Let's go, it's time to leave. I have no desire to watch any longer."

"Moreover... I've already gotten what I wanted... The God Slayer didn't stop me. This means that, just as I guessed... he doesn't want the New World to be dominated by only the Hell Pirates, that would be... incredibly boring."

"Thief, hahaha!"

"Mr. Kaido."

"Um."

"From this day forward, there will be no more Celestial Dragons or World Government... The new world will be a civilization built by One Piece, and this civilization and new era are destined to be filled with chaos and destruction. Because the person who created it is a complete bastard, hahahahaha!"

King and Kaido were also startled by the scene of onlookers.

"Blackbeard is gone..."

Jin suddenly turned his head to look at a certain spot on the horizon and said coldly.

"He's not like you or me, just here for a visit. Given his personality, he would never show his face unless he had some purpose in mind... Marshall D. Teach is quite afraid of God Slayer." Kaido's dragon head slowly rose. "Leaving early... means he has most likely already achieved his goal."

"Should we continue watching?"

Jin asked a question.

Originally, the Hell Pirates held an absolute advantage in terms of both total combat strength and number of people.

These corpses, now dead, have been transformed into new 'units' and thrown into the battlefield in the blink of an eye.

This is tantamount to 'killing' the game prematurely.

Actually, the fact that he has managed to hold on until now is already beyond what he and Kaido expected.

The main reason, of course, is that the God Slayer didn't really make a move from beginning to end.

It seems they couldn't wait any longer and were finally about to end this turbulent period of 'epochal creation'.

This also signifies the complete collapse of the world order that the Celestial Dragons had ruled for centuries.

An era... has come to an end! "Let's go."

Kaido speaking, he soared through the clouds and flew into the distance.

Ember flapped its wings and followed closely behind.
