Tree Islands 1 through 29 of the Sabaody Archipelago.
This is a chaotic, Lawless Zone, rife with darkness and evil, teeming with human trafficking dens and auctions...
Various pirate crews and slave-hunting groups roamed this place, and wealthy merchants and nobles from all over the world came here to buy and auction off slaves.
The Celestial Dragons are also frequent visitors here.
But today, these twenty-odd small tree islands are facing their nightmare.
In a large Human Auction House.
A tall, thin, stylishly dressed man is frantically calling for help while holding a Den Den Mushi).
"Lord Doflamingo, come save me! It's the Goa Empire! Those bastards from the Goa Empire are invading our auction house!!"
Disco, the auction house owner and auctioneer, screamed in terror into the Den Den Mushi.
"The Goa Empire?"
"Fluff fluff~, Disco, times have changed."
"This auction house is yours, Disco!"
"Don't contact me again, I'm afraid the Emperor of Exile will misunderstand..."
When Doflamingo received Disco's distress call and learned that it was someone from the Goa Empire, he made a decision almost without hesitation.
It's just a Human Auction House.
Once it's gone, it's gone.
"No, sir, you can't abandon us!!"
Disco looked terrified. Wasn't the Goa Empire an ally of Dressrosa and Lord Doflamingo?
A single sentence could have easily persuaded the Goa Emperor to make an exception for their Human Auction House.
Perhaps after the Goa Empire loots other human trafficking shops and auction houses, they can take the opportunity to expand and dominate the business in Lawless Zone.
Why give up such a big piece of fat!
Disco doesn't understand!
"Boom!"
With a flash of sword light, the doors of the Human Auction House were smashed open.
A blind man wearing wooden clogs walked in.
"I heard countless cries of Despair..."
Duke Sky-Fall - Fujitora Issho of the Goa Empire and Imperial Admiral Fujitora Issho, after the Wang Shi issued the order to clean up Lawless Zone at will, Issho, who is usually reluctant to take action, finally took the initiative to do so.
He wants to liberate the slaves here!
The slaves, imprisoned in their cells, stared blankly at the intruder.
But there was still no hope in their eyes.
The bomb collars around their necks had already driven them to Despair, and some defiant individuals even had bomb handcuffs on their hands and feet.
There's no escaping it! There's absolutely no way to escape!
"Lord Issho, we are owned by Lord Doflamingo, and we have the support of the Celestial Dragons! You can't do this!!!"
Seeing that Issho was going to liberate the slaves, Disco fearlessly rushed over, even still acting like Doflamingo who had abandoned him, and even daring to use the name of the Celestial Dragons.
"His Majesty says that this Lawless Zone belongs to the Goa Empire, and the Celestial Dragons must step aside!"
"Die, you sinner!"
With a smile and a blank expression, he slowly pulled out a section of the Jidao Huoxian.
This blind man, who dared to release Meteor in the Holy Land Mary Geoise and rescue slaves in front of the Celestial Dragons, demonstrated his justice and principles.
A terrifying force of gravity slammed down on Disco.
In an instant, Disco was flattened and exploded into a cloud of blood mist, then, with terrifying gravity, it was pressed into a dark, deep underground pit.
The other guards of the Human Auction House were also ruthlessly suppressed by Yi Xiao, and one by one they were pushed into the Abyss after the key floated out.
This horrifying scene finally brought a glimmer of hope to the eyes of these slaves.
Someone really came to rescue them!
This blind man also killed the boss.
"You are free."
With a smile and a swift stroke, the cages were cleaved open, and the keys floated over, allowing these poor souls to unlock themselves.

On another tree island.
"Hahaha!! Even a small mosquito is still meat!"
"Consider this a pre-war dessert."
The vines, like the tentacles of a demon, relentlessly hunted and devoured the pirate crews and slave-hunting groups.
"Welcome your heroes! I am Lord Aramaki, the Duke of Impalement of the Goa Empire. Remember the name of your benefactor!"
"Remember to sing praises of my name when you get back!"
Aramaki laughed wildly, smashing the windows of one human trafficking shop after another, rescuing one beautiful woman after another wearing Slave Collar.
The merchandise displayed in slave shop windows consisted almost entirely of stunningly beautiful women.
Back in the day, Stella, the beloved of the Gild Tesoro, was one of those beauties who could be displayed.
Aramaki thoroughly enjoys this feeling of legal destruction.
Rescuing slaves was just a side effect.
Just enjoy the feeling of being a hero.
Deep down, he still had a sense of justice.
After all, he was a high-ranking police officer from the Taya Kingdom.
"No, Aramaki, you can't do this! We have Celestial Dragons behind us..."
"Aramaki, we are the property of the Underground Dark Emperor, the Great News Morgans, Dragu Kuro! Please spare us..."
···
The owners of the human trafficking shops and the members of the slave-catching gangs begged the Aramaki for mercy in fear.
"Excuse me, this is Goa time!"
"Today's Lawless Zone belongs to the Goa Empire!"
"His Majesty says we must loot you, and we must wipe you out completely."
Aramaki grinned, showing no mercy as he devoured these unscrupulous bosses and slave traders.
Aramaki moved extremely fast because he didn't want to waste 'food'.
Enel and Bill kill people with lightning and lava; they waste so much food.
Of the 29 illegal tree islands, he has to clean up at least 10!
In terms of wide-area damage, he and Enel, both Logia users, are the strongest.
Viscount like Zoro, Saka, Bartolomeo, Van Augur, Burgess would probably be too much to handle even on a single Tree Island.
Meanwhile, the other Baron of the Goa Empire were forming teams to clear a tree island.
After all, apart from the three dukes and Enel, even Count Biru wouldn't dare say he could quickly wipe out the pirates and slave hunters on Tree Island.
After all, the major Human Auction House and human trafficking shops still have a certain level of security.
Even the women of the Goa Empire formed a group to liberate the slaves.
Dezaya and Bonney were the most active among them.
Wang Shi even dispatched vampire bats to protect them and clean up the corpses.
···
The Goa Empire's outrageous actions in the Lawless Zone completely stunned the other tree islands.
Among them, the naval bases, World Government agencies, and Celestial Dragons and World Government officials who frequented the ports of Tree Island 60 to 69 were trembling with fear at the hands of the brutal Baron of the Goa Empire.
They urgently reported to the World Government and the Marine Headquarters, only to be told: ignore it.
And the soap bubble park and amusement Paradise on tree islands 30 to 39...
Tree Island tourist area (numbers 40 to 49), specialty shops...
The shipyard and coating plant on Tree Islands 50 to 59...
Hotels, restaurants, and guesthouses on Tree Islands 70 to 79...
Most shops were so frightened that they closed down, and many people even went to Lawless Zone to watch the commotion...
Meanwhile, Garp, Rayleigh, and Shakky, who were at the Rip-Off Bar, were all shocked by the Goa Empire's arrogant actions.
Has the Goa Empire become that powerful now?
They actually dared to smash up the Celestial Dragons' entertainment venue?
