Invading God Valley

The Grand Line and the Red Line intersect, dividing the oceans of the world into four.

The sea areas on either side of the New World are the North Blue and the West Blue.

It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to travel from the New World to the West Blue, but it is a simple matter for the Rocks Pirates.

Under the power of the Float-Float Fruit, the Jebec Sword left the sea surface, passed directly through the Calm Belt in the air, and headed straight for God Valley.

To catch up to the God Valley Hunting Tournament, the Golden Lion fully utilized his Devil Fruit ability.

In just 2 days, they arrived at the sea area where God Valley was located.

West Blue, God Valley.

The island has two steep mountains, as if carved by knives, piercing straight into the sea of clouds.

Dozens to hundreds of Marine warships were anchored around the island, their duty was to blockade the entire island, not letting a single "rabbit" escape.

The hunting tournament would last for three weeks, and after three weeks, not a single native inhabitant of the island would be alive!

At this moment, on the east coast of God Valley.

On the deck of a warship, a captain on watch observed the situation on the island with binoculars.

Screams could be heard from time to time.

"It seems it has already begun… the Celestial Dragons' game. If you ask me, there's no need to deploy so many warships. No one can escape anyway."

Vice Admiral Harvey snorted coldly, "3 years ago, the last hunting tournament was held in the Kingdom of Cho. Some people managed to escape then."

"Ah? How could anyone escape, Vice Admiral? Escape even under the encirclement of so many warships?"

The captain found it unbelievable.

"It was a Marine Rear Admiral…" Harvey's eyes were cold, somewhat unwilling to recall the past:

"He let the 'rabbits' escape due to some foolish sympathy, and among them was the princess of the Kingdom of Cho. Fortunately, it didn't lead to any major mistakes, otherwise, we Marines would have been in trouble."

"What happened to that Rear Admiral afterward?" the captain's eyes widened.

"What do you think?" Vice Admiral Harvey patted his subordinate's head and reprimanded him, "I told you to observe the sea and the coast, not the island! Do your job properly!"

"Yes, Vice Admiral!"

The captain quickly turned his direction, using his binoculars to scan the coastline. Seeing no anomalies, he then looked out at the sea.

Suddenly, a ship's silhouette appeared in his vision, and the characters on the sail made the captain turn pale with shock:

"V-V-Vice Admiral, it's pirates, the ship of the Rocks Pirates!"

"What? Give it to me!"

Vice Admiral Harvey's expression changed drastically, and he snatched the binoculars.

On the sea, a pirate ship was sailing rapidly towards God Valley.

"Rocks Pirates! Why are they in the West Blue?"

Harvey's pupils constricted, his expression filled with horror. He had no time to think and quickly took out a Den Den Mushi, relaying the message to all Marines.

At the same time.

On the deck of the Jebec Sword.

"Have they already spotted us?"

Rocks stepped onto the figurehead, gazing at the east coast of God Valley. The warships there were already turning their cannons, their target clearly aimed at them.

"Hahahahaha, my lads, let's have a grand fight!" he roared with laughter.

Boom boom boom!

The cannons roared, and dozens of warships fired simultaneously. Each warship's main cannon was a triple-barreled large cannon. With a single volley, hundreds of cannonballs rained down.

"Gurararara, what an impolite greeting!"

Whitebeard took a few steps forward, moving to the front of the crowd. He clenched his right fist, and his bicep bulged several times.

The next moment, he punched the air.

"Air Shock!"

BOOM!!

A dull sound echoed, and the air cracked like a spiderweb, spreading outwards. The power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit instantly destroyed all incoming cannonballs.

Boom boom boom!

In an instant, they turned into fireworks blooming in the sky.

"Jajajaja, leave the warships to me."

The Golden Lion laughed heartily, immediately detached from the deck, and flew towards the coast.

Charlotte Linlin scoffed, "He's definitely trying to sneak away, that scoundrel Golden Lion! Zeus!"

A thundercloud appeared, and she leaped onto the cloud, riding it away.

Stussy said enviously, "It's so nice to be able to fly."

Dimon stood at the bow of the ship, hands in his coat pockets, gazing out. "I can take you there, by flying," he said upon hearing her.

"Oh… thank you, but let them deal with the small fry first~" Stussy chuckled lightly.

Gloriosa moved her fingers, and the snake coiled around her arm immediately tensed, transforming into a snake bow.

Then, she drew the bowstring taut, and the arrow, wrapped in Armament Haki, turned pitch black.

She let out a soft breath. "No need to fly just to clear out the small fry. Long-range attacks like this are my specialty."

As soon as she finished speaking, whoosh.

The black arrow traced a perfectly straight trajectory through the air, hitting a Marine warship with pinpoint accuracy.

BOOM!!

The arrow pierced the warship, and simultaneously, a massive explosion erupted into towering flames. The Marines on board screamed in panic.

Is that an arrow? That's a cannon…

Dimon grumbled inwardly.

On the east coast, the Rocks Pirates had appeared, and the area fell within a short period.

At the same time.

Inside God Valley.

A group of "rabbits" wearing shackles were desperately fleeing for their lives. Even if they fell while running, they didn't dare to stop, crawling forward if necessary.

It was as if something immense and terrifying was pursuing them from behind.

Suddenly, a flash of sword light.

A figure instantly cut through the fleeing crowd. The next second, everyone's movements froze. Blood spurted from their bodies simultaneously, and they all fell to the ground.

Instant kill!

This scene was captured by a nearby Den Den Mushi. Then, the announcer for the hunting competition exclaimed through the speaker.

"Oh my! Unbelievable, Saint Gorosei has already earned 100,000 points so quickly!"

"Can anyone stop him from claiming the grand prize? Let me see who's currently in second place…"

Saint Gorosei paid no attention to the broadcast. He flicked the blood off his rapier and suddenly looked up in the direction of the east coast.

Rumbling sounds came from the east coast.

Saint Gorosei released his Observation Haki, which spread out like a net in an instant.

He whispered, "Rocks Pirates?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked up sharply.

A white cloud flew rapidly overhead. Standing on the cloud was a tall woman.

"Fly faster, Zeus! Let's quietly snatch the treasure and then quietly leave!"

"Yes, Mama!"

In the blink of an eye, the white cloud had flown away, heading towards the central area of God Valley.

"Charlotte Linlin? Is her target the competition prize?" Saint Gorosei's gaze sharpened, and he was about to intervene.

However, the moment he moved to act, his movements suddenly froze.

A figure descended from the sky, landing heavily behind him.

Terrifying Haki locked onto him, and black and red lightning crackled ominously.

Saint Gorosei turned around, his eyes cold. "Rocks!"

Rocks stretched his stiff neck, slowly drawing his weapon.

"Where is what you stole from us?"

East coast.

Dozens of warships had been sunk, and the sea had turned into a sea of fire, burning fiercely.

Dimon jumped off the ship, walking leisurely at the rear. As for the others, they had already charged into the island.

Except for Stussy.

"Why aren't you going in?"

"I'm just a scientist, I don't have combat power," Stussy smiled slightly. "Dimon, remember to protect me~"

"Then keep up."

Dimon casually brushed her off. They were all immortal, what protection was needed? They couldn't die anyway.

The two walked unhurriedly towards the center of God Valley.

After passing the coast, they arrived at a wooded area. On a high slope near the woods, Saturn, one of the Five Elders, Saint Saturn, leaned on his cane, his gaze fixed on Dimon.

"Is it you? Dimon, the Brewer."
