The Five Elders looked at the critically injured and dying Holy Knight with grim expressions, each of them helpless.
They could only try to contact Imu.
I wonder if Lord Imu can restore the bodies of these Holy Knights.
"Return!!"
Imu's icy voice echoed in the consciousness of the Five Elders.
The icy, bone-chilling aura sent shivers down the spines of the Five Elders.
"Yes!"
The Five Elders hurriedly responded, without even reporting the Holy Knight's miserable condition.
They didn't even ask whether Shanks or that unfortunate Holy Knight were alive or dead.
However, just as Imu and the Five Elders were manipulating Uranus to turn around, the Mother Flame within Uranus trembled violently, then rapidly shrank and disappeared.
This caused the entire Uranus battleship to shake violently, and its flight altitude to continuously decrease.
This sudden accident terrified the Five Elders.
"Something's wrong! Lord Imu, the Mother Flame is disappearing!"
"National Treasure is about to fall into the sea!"
"Damn it! There's something wrong with the Mother Flame!"
"Vegapunk betrayed us!"
Amidst the angry and terrified cries of the Five Elders, Uranus, plummeted rapidly into the sea.
Upon hearing these sounds, Imu in the Holy Land Mary Geoise was enraged, his murderous intent sweeping across the entire Mary Geoise. Countless Celestial Dragons and CP agents rolled their eyes and collapsed, foaming at the mouth!
"Vegapunk! Wang Shi! Mu will kill you all!!"
Imu roared to the heavens, and in the end, he could only order the Five Elders to abandon ship and flee, noting down the coordinates of Uranus's fall into the sea.
Saint Marcus Mars quickly transformed into Itsumade, and led the other Five Elders and the half-dead Holy Knight to escape from Uranus.
They watched helplessly as their National Treasure plunged into the sea, creating a giant white wave before disappearing into the ocean depths.
The National Treasure Uranus that embodied their hopes sank into the sea without firing a single shot.
What sorrow and anger this is!
"Vegapunk! I will grind you to dust!"
Saint Garling was both furious and ice-cold.
He botched Lord Imu's mission once again.
He couldn't even imagine how he would face Imu Im's punishment next.
He will die, and like Saint Saturn, he will die without a burial place.
Saint Garling was terrified; he was truly afraid!
The other Five Elders were equally panicked; they had originally planned to use Uranus, to retaliate against the Black Ten Alliance and the Goa Empire.
But now, they no longer have Uranus.
They had entered a desperate situation.
The World Government could very well fall to Wang Shi and Pluton.
Filled with fear, they fled quickly back to the Holy Land Mary Geoise, preparing for the devastating war that was about to begin.
···
At this moment, we are in the waters Egghead.
The pirates of the Black Ten Alliance were in a frenzy of celebration, though amidst the dazzling white light and terrifying explosion, no one knew how many of the Five Elders and the Holy Knights had perished.
World collapsed onto the Pluton main cannon, losing consciousness, but a satisfied smile remained on his face.
Is he dead?
Wang Shi flew swiftly towards the Abyss ruins of Egghead, searching for the Five Elders and the Holy Knight who might be able to be restored.
"Your Majesty!! Shanks! Shanks' Vivre Card has burned out."
When Wang Shi back to the Exile Emperor, Uta rushed into Wang Shi's arms with tears in her eyes.
Even the former officers of the Red Hair Pirates were in low spirits.
Wang Shi didn't know how to comfort Uta.
"I believe Shanks, who was controlled by Imu, was never happy. Perhaps now that his soul is free, Shanks is watching us happily from the sky."
"In the past Shanks gave up his freedom and soul in order to guide and protect the Sun God Nika."
"He is a warrior who fights for his dream."
Wang Shi comforted Uta and tried to say some good things about Red-Haired Shanks.
Shanks is just a pitiful man fooled by fate.
A heartless father, a mother who died young, a strange older brother, a pirate adoptive father, a conflict between blood ties and dreams, a life controlled by fate...
Wang Shi would call Shanks the Qiao Feng of the One Piece world.
After all, Shanks is already dead. He tricked him many times while he was alive, so he should at least be given some face after his death.
Wang Shi bestowed some nice-sounding titles upon Shanks to appease Uta and the former Red Regiment cadres.
···
Wang Shi mentally assessed the gains from this encounter, since even Red-Haired Shanks, the reincarnation of Imu, had been blasted to death.
That likely also killed the other Five Elders and the Holy Knight.
This greatly appealed to Wang Shi.
Adhering to the principle of "taking advantage of your weakness to kill you."
Wang Shi immediately ordered a full-scale advance towards the Holy Land Mary Geoise, preparing for the final battle.
Meanwhile, the naval fleet that rushed to Egghead was startled by a massive explosion before it could even engage in battle.
The island they were supposed to help Wang Shi seize, Egghead, simply vanished.
What the hell is going on?
Akainu even thought that Wang Shi had fallen into a trap set by the World Government and that something terrible had happened.
They soon received a call from Wang Shi and immediately returned to base, preparing to launch an attack on the World Government.
Wang Shi declared a full-scale war against the World Government.
This left the naval leadership somewhat bewildered; how could things have developed so quickly?
Wang Shi even launched a live broadcast of the declaration of war, informing the world that the World Alliance and the World Government had launched a full-scale war.
"Greetings to all people of the world, I am Wang Shi, the leader of the World Alliance."
"The Celestial Dragons for far too long!"
"The Celestial Dragons consider themselves gods and have long lost their humanity. They treat humans as slaves and ants, arbitrarily taking lives and squandering Heavenly Tribute."
"They have become parasites on this world."
"Countless Affiliated Nation were plunged into war in order to pay the Heavenly Tribute,' resulting in widespread suffering and the destruction of families."
"They also hold a human extermination competition every three years, taking pleasure in the slaughter."
"The Celestial Dragons can no longer be called human; they are the enemies of all races."
"Today, I launch an uprising in the New World and formally declare war on the World Government, fighting for peace."
"Oppressed people of all nations, stand up!"
"Join us, let's overthrow the Celestial Dragons' rule and establish a new, just order."
···
Wang Shi started a live broadcast to the world, determined to relentlessly pursue and beat up the World Government.
This sudden declaration of full-scale war completely shocked the world.
The D Alliance and the Revolutionary Army, currently gathering along the Grand Line, have not yet made any move to harass Marineford and Mary Geoise.
Why did the Wang Shi suddenly launch a full-scale war?
"What exactly happened?"
Wang Shi Dragon watched the King in the live stream, his eyes were filled with shock.
Didn't Wang Shi say he was going to steal Vegapunk?
Why did they suddenly start a war?
Has something major happened on Egghead?
"Chief, breaking news: an unprecedented earthquake has struck the New World, and the coastlines of many islands have risen."
"Could it be that Wang Shi and Imu broke out into a war on Egghead?"
Bello Belo Betty spoke with a grave expression, "The war World Alliance and the World Government will have far-reaching consequences."
It will most likely drag all the world's powers into the war.
After all, with two major powers at war, other powers have to choose sides.
Otherwise, they will be devoured or purged.
"If Wang Shi gained a significant advantage on Egghead, then his eagerness to declare war would be understandable."
Dragon stroked his chin, lost in thought.
