In Mock Town Jaya.
A large number of pirates gathered in the town's bar.
"Hahaha, Captain! The Whitebeard Pirates are recruiting and vying for the title of Pirate King. Let's head to the New World too!"
"Maybe we can become the Pirate King's subordinates too!"
"Tch, you bunch of trash, you don't even meet the minimum requirements to join the Whitebeard Pirates."
"What did you say!?"
"What? I'm talking about you!"
"Damn it, brothers, kill him!"
···
Some pirates were shouting fiercely, and some pirate crews even started fighting each other at the slightest disagreement.
"Bang!"
"A bunch of useless trash!"
Bellamy hyena punched a pirate henchman who was tumbling towards him, sending him flying.
"The title of Pirate King can only belong to our North Blue's pride, Lord Doflamingo!"
As a big fan of Doflamingo, Bellamy has great admiration for Doflamingo.
Bellamy comes from the wealthy town of Notis in the North Blue and has not yet arrived in the New World.
He firmly believed that the Donquixote Family was the most powerful force.
Doflamingo will one day become the Pirate King!
For this reason, he once obtained the Donquixote Family banner from Doflamingo.
He went from being a petty thug to becoming a pirate at sea.
"Something terrible has happened!!"
"It's Goa... the Goa Empire's warships are here!!"
"Captain, board the ship and get out of here immediately!"
A dozen or so pirate henchmen who had rushed over from the port of Jaya were shouting in panic at their respective captains.
"What? The Goa Empire? That overlord emperor of the East Blue?"
"Does he intend to seize Jaya?"
"You know what, it's actually possible. The newspapers say they've taken over an island called Silver Island in the New World."
"Run!!"
"Why run! With my strength, I might even be able to the Goa Empire and become a noble Baron!"
"I've heard that the Emperor of Exile has several Baron who were originally pirates."
"What kind of daydream are you having? The standard for Baron in the Goa Empire has already been raised to over 70 million Belly."
Even some pirates with bounties as high as 80 million, Wang Shi doesn't even look at.
···
The pirates in Mock Town were starting to panic.
It's important to know that most pirates who weren't noticed by the Wang Shi were killed and turned into mummies.
They don't even qualify to be arrested and imprisoned.
The infamous reputation of the Duke of Impalement Aramaki had already spread throughout the world.
"The Emperor of Exile?"
"I heard this guy has allied with Lord Doflamingo?"
"You don't even care about pirates with 80 million Belly?"
Bellamy drank his wine, listening to the noise around him, and frowned.
Keep in mind that his current bounty is only 55 million Belly.
He had previously heard that even the Donquixote Family had joined the North Blue Underworld Alliance and was under the command of the Goa Empire.
This made him very unhappy.
How could the pride of the North Blue be subjugated by the weakest people of the East Blue?
Therefore, these messages must be false.
The man he reveres, Lord Doflamingo, is the strongest!
"Let's go see if the One Emperor and Three Dukes are really as powerful as the newspapers say."
Bellamy led his men to the port of Jaya.
He wanted to see if Wang Shi was qualified to be Lord Doflamingo's ally.
Behind Bellamy, there were also many pirate crews eager to see the Emperor of Exile in action.
Or see if there are any opportunities to the Goa Empire.
After all, with the rise of the One Emperor and Three Dukes, Goa Empire was no less impressive than joining the Whitebeard Pirates.
···
On the Exile Emperor.
The arrival of Kuma led Wang Shi to start a small tea party.
After some introductions and some food and drink, Wang Shi spoke quietly to the Kuma.
"Kuma, in the past few months, you've been carrying out missions around the world for the World Government. Have you had any missions involving non- Affiliated Nation?"
"Did you know that this year marks the Celestial Dragons' triennial [Native Purge Tournament]?"
Upon hearing about the Celestial Dragons and the Native Purge Tournament, Kuma's entire body involuntarily trembled.
It was as if some cruel scene had been recalled.
Even little Bonney, sitting on the Kuma's shoulders, could feel the Kuma's fear.
What kind of terrifying competition could make even such a powerful Kuma feel apprehensive?
"Native Purge Tournament?"
Yixiao and the other Baron, including Aramaki, all looked at Wang Shi with suspicion.
"What kind of competition is this? Just hearing about it sends chills down my spine..."
Nami, Kaya, and the other girls became a little scared, as if they had heard about some kind of demon tournament.
Just hearing this name made everyone frown.
"The Native Purge Tournament is a traditional event of the Celestial Dragons, the Celestial Dragons."
"Every three years they would choose a non- Affiliated Nation island as a playground for their games of amusement and slaughter."
"Besides turning this island into Celestial Dragons' property, perhaps it's also to cultivate elites within the Celestial Dragons' ranks."
"Every Holy Knight is probably an absolute elite who fought their way out of the [Native Purge Tournament]."
"In preparation for the Celestial Dragons ' 'study tour', the World Government will dispatch a large number of warships to completely seal off the island in advance to prevent the news from leaking."
"The Celestial Dragons will slaughter all the native inhabitants and slaves on the island, and then erase all traces of the island."
"36 years ago, the Valley of the West Blue God Valley was the island chosen for that [Native Purge Tournament]."
"The Celestial Dragons do not allow God Valley to use the name 'God'."
"That year, a fierce war broke out Holy Knights powerful Marines, the Rocks Pirates, and the Roger Pirates."
"It was in that battle that Fist Garp earned the title of Marine Hero..."
"Kuma was one of the survivors who escaped from God Valley."
Wang Shi looked at the group of people and began to recount some top-secret information that had been erased by the World Government.
"Hiss~"
Everyone gasped, with Kuma and Angel Robin reacting the most intensely.
After all, both of them had experienced the 'massacre' by the World Government.
Silver-haired Saka felt that his idol, Fist Garp, seemed to have gained another stain.
Was Fist Garp one of the Marines who surrounded God Valley and protected the Celestial Dragons back then?
The naval hero not only adopted the son of the Pirate King, but also covered for the Celestial Dragons' massacre of an island?
This completely shattered Saka's former naval dreams.
This wasn't the righteous navy he envisioned!
"Daddy Bear~"
Bonney hugged the Kuma tightly around the neck; she couldn't even imagine the Despair the Kuma had gone through to escape.
"Once every three years?"
"How many islands did those Celestial Dragons destroy, and how many lives did they kill?"
Yixiao's heart trembled as well. The World Government had been established for eight hundred years. Hadn't the Celestial Dragons slaughtered two hundred and sixty or seventy islands?
Even if an island has only 100,000 people, tens of millions of lives have been lost at the hands of the Celestial Dragons throughout history.
This made Yixiao feel a heavy weight that made it hard to breathe.
He finally understood why he sensed such a strong aura of evil and resentment emanating from the two Holy Knights, Shamrock and Gunko.
Even though these two Holy Knight only participated in a few [Native Purge Tournament], their hands were stained with countless lives.
Yixiao gripped the hilt of the Jidao Huoxian sword tightly.
I thought the Celestial Dragons were already incredibly cruel by buying and abusing countless slaves, but I never imagined there would be even more brutal massacres.
These Celestial Dragons are truly unworthy of being the rulers of the world!
