Slaying King Ba Dodeshinai

The open sea off the main island of the Flaws Kingdom.

"Damn it! First you hire Germa 66 from the North Blue to threaten me, then you form a coalition in the East Blue to gang up on me! And you even had the World Government issue me a warning!"

"A fine Flaws Kingdom indeed!"

"A fine Ba Dodeshinai indeed!"

"You are all dead!"

Wang Shi stood at the bow of the Exile Emperor, his eyes bloodshot as if he hadn't slept all night.

"Kill them all! Take the Flaws Kingdom in the shortest time possible!!"

Wang Shi drew his long blade, his eyes filled with brutality, and he was the first to charge into the fray.

So they wanted to assemble a coalition, did they?

Then he would wipe out the ringleader kingdom before they could even gather!

This war was a rare moment where Wang Shi was truly serious.

Perhaps sensing Wang Shi's fury, Van Augur, Eric, and El Drago were all incredibly focused and solemn, their faces brimming with killing intent.

Even the pirate slaves like Jango and Steel Bear were surging with murderous aura.

It was as if they saw this as an opportunity to perform and earn merit before Wang Shi.

"His Majesty seems very angry."

Zoro and Saka watched the erupting Wang Shi, their eyes filled with shock.

Wherever Wang Shi went, all artillery fire and soldiers within a hundred-meter radius vanished; after cutting down dozens of men, he headed straight for the royal palace, seemingly unwilling to waste any more time on slaughter.

This eerie scene terrified not only the soldiers of the Flaws Kingdom but even made the Guard Commanders and captains of the Goa Empire feel a touch of panic.

"The King of Exile is here! Run!"

"He's a monster! Everything near him just disappears!"

"He's a devil! He's exiled everyone to hell!"

The morale of the Flaws Kingdom collapsed instantly, and they fled in all directions.

If even the evil army of Germa 66 couldn't defeat Wang Shi, how could they?

The Guard Commanders of the Goa Empire and Eric's group threw themselves into crushing any Flaws soldiers who dared to resist.

Van Augur and El Drago hurried along behind Wang Shi, clearing out the reckless soldiers on the flanks.

Inside the royal palace.

Hearing that Wang Shi was cutting through the kingdom as if no one were there, and that every soldier who approached him was being ruthlessly exiled, the atmosphere shifted.

At this moment, King Ba Dodeshinai panicked!

Sasba IX panicked!

The Guard Commander, the Ministers of the Left and Right, and a crowd of nobles and officials were all in a state of panic!

"Run! Run quickly!"

Wang Shi actually dared to ignore the warning from the World Government and attack the Flaws Kingdom regardless.

Was he not afraid of the World Government holding him accountable?

"Damn you, Wang Shi! The World Government will surely kill you for being such a brutal king!"

Ba Dodeshinai cursed as he ran; this Wang Shi was truly a madman.

How could he dare to disregard the World Government's warning?

If he didn't give the World Government face, Wang Shi wouldn't have an easy life ahead of him either.

They had just fled the palace through the back door when they discovered that Wang Shi, Van Augur, and the others were already waiting for them.

They even noticed that the warships at the rear harbor had vanished.

Could it be—could it be that Wang Shi could even exile massive warships?

What kind of hellish ability was this!

"Your Majesty Wang Shi, I surrender! I submit! Please don't exile me!"

"Just give me a nominal title of Grand Duke, that's all I ask!"

Seeing Wang Shi's figure, King Sasba was the first to kneel.

He was terrified.

He had heard that if one surrendered to Wang Shi voluntarily, they could retain the title of Grand Duke.

He didn't want to be buried with Ba Dodeshinai; he didn't want to die yet.

"Sasba IX, how dare you!!"

King Ba Dodeshinai watched as the King of Sasba knelt so quickly, his rage instantly igniting.

"It is far too late to be saying such things now."

"The World Government has signaled to me that they do not wish to see any more troublesome affairs."

"Therefore, you had all better just disappear!"

Wang Shi directly activated his ability, banishing the King of Sasba; every single member of the Sasba royal family had to vanish!

"As for you, Ba Dodeshinai! I shall use your blood to appease Empress Sally and my own fury!"

Wang Shi charged directly toward King Ba Dodeshinai.

The ministers and Guard Army soldiers who tried to block his path were all cut down by Wang Shi.

Van Augur and El Drago were also assisting in cleaning out the royal family and nobles of the Flaws Kingdom.

"Wang Shi! A brute like you will never meet a good end!!"

Seeing Wang Shi charging at him, King Ba Dodeshinai was filled with both shock and rage, his eyes brimming with fear and unwillingness.

He had laid out so many plans, and everything was just on the verge of bearing fruit.

Yet, in a single night of lightning raids, Wang Shi had violently shattered his schemes.

His Allied Nations Fleet had not yet arrived, and his Germa reinforcements were still on the way...

"I must admit, you have a bit of a brain after all, actually wanting to organize an East Blue Allied Forces; that makes it even more impossible to let you live."

"To be honest, when I entered the territorial waters of the Sasba Kingdom, I really was only there to hunt down the Poker Pirates."

"But your reaction was so intense, you forced my hand into slaughtering you all."

Wang Shi remained expressionless as he swung his blade, severing King Ba Dodeshinai's head.

At the same time, he ordered El Drago and Van Augur to execute every member of the Flaws royal family.

He intended to use the blood of the Flaws royals to warn the nations of the East Blue: being the ringleader doesn't just result in banishment—it results in the death of one's self and the annihilation of one's clan.

As for the Sasba royal family and the majority of the Flaws Kingdom's nobles, they were all banished by Wang Shi, disappearing without a trace.

"From this day forth, the Goa Empire shall be known to the world as the master of eight great kingdoms!"

"The war of expansion shall pause for now!"

Wang Shi held the head of King Ba Dodeshinai and let out a cold laugh.

The territory of eight nations was likely the limit of the World Government's tolerance; he could not continue to expand.

It was also time to extend goodwill to the various nations of the East Blue, build good relations, and establish himself as the absolute big brother of the East Blue.

The eight nations of the Goa Empire were: the original Goa Kingdom, the Four-Leaf Kingdom, the Organ Kingdom, the Moonlight Kingdom, the Konomi Kingdom...

The Sasba Kingdom, the Flaws Kingdom, and the Kokia Kingdom, which had previously been annexed by the Flaws Kingdom.

After finishing off Ba Dodeshinai, Wang Shi immediately notified Empress Sally of the news.

At the same time, he had the high nobles and officials of the Goa Empire report to the World Government to handle the issue of the Heavenly Tribute.

He also had to provide the World Government with a response and a guarantee to pacify the protests and the alliance of the East Blue Allied Nations.

He needed to reduce the trouble for the World Government.

As Wang Shi appeared on the walls of the Flaws Kingdom's royal palace, holding the head of King Ba Dodeshinai, the entire Guard Army of the Flaws Kingdom surrendered on sight, not daring to continue opposing the King of Exile.

Besides, their king was dead; what meaning was there left in their fight?

On an island in the New World.

Big News Morgans had intended to continue following the large-scale war between the Goa Empire, the East Blue Allied Nations Fleet, and the Germa Evil Legion.

He never expected that, despite the news of yesterday having only just been published this morning, Wang Shi would have already wiped out the Flaws Kingdom.

This news surprised even the well-informed Morgans.

Even he had not expected Wang Shi to possess such speed and audacity.

"Gwahahaha! I truly want to see the war between Wang Shi and Judge immediately, to see whether the Emperor of the East Blue or the Overlord of the North Blue is stronger!"

Morgans laughed wantonly; as for the small fry of the East Blue Allied Nations, they were not worth worrying about at all.

Just as Morgans had anticipated, the East Blue Allied Nations Fleet, which was currently rushing to assemble at the Flaws Kingdom, heard the news that the Flaws Kingdom had been destroyed, their ringleader King Ba Dodeshinai had been beheaded by Wang Shi, and his entire clan had been slaughtered.

Terrified, the dozen or so allied fleets stopped in their tracks.

However, soon after, as the World Government transmitted the official announcement that the Goa Empire had ceased its expansion to all the major allied nations, these allied fleets immediately scurried back to their respective countries in disgrace.

They knew that the Goa Empire's status as a juggernaut in the East Blue was now something no one dared to shake!
