Rocks Pirates, Landing!

"Did you see? Celestial Dragons, they're just flesh and blood like us, no three heads or six arms. With a little help, you could have done what we did today.

The key is, did you have the will to do it, and the courage to bear the consequences!"

The longer one stayed within the Gravity Field, the greater the influence. Initially, it only made movement difficult, but as time passed, Elatin's body began to show a strange paralysis, though his consciousness remained intact.

Elatin could see a group of people outside the Gravity Field, seemingly celebrating something.

"Damn commoners, how dare you..."

Elatin tried to speak, but at some point, he lost control of his tongue. The smoke from the Lotus Trap explosion had not yet dissipated.

After his gas mask was shattered, the poisonous smoke began to invade his nose and mouth. Before losing consciousness, the last thing Elatin saw was a rapidly enlarging shoe sole.

"Does anyone want to step on him? If you're going to do these things, do them after you leave here. You might not get another chance."

Oran's exoskeleton could emit a special Hex Energy Field, which perfectly counteracted the limitations of the Gravity Field. Therefore, even though the Gravity Field was still active, he could move freely.

To be safe, Oran also gave Elatin a dose of anesthetic, eliminating any possibility of him waking up mid-action, before deactivating the Gravity Field.

"I'll do it!"

Oran's words were quite shocking on this sea. Knocking down a Celestial Dragon and stepping on him, this act once again shattered the worldview of those around them.

They were so stunned that they didn't even realize that the remark "step on him" was equally astonishing. Finally, Ginny was the first to step forward and kick towards the Celestial Dragon's head.

After nine years of slavery, she deeply detested this group. A few kicks were nowhere near enough to vent her resentment.

With Ginny leading the way, the locals of God Valley hesitated, but the slaves couldn't hold back any longer.

"Bastard, you damn thing! Do you know what we've been through all these years!"

"Give me back my family, give them back!"

Accompanied by angry shouts, countless fists and feet rained down on him. These people finally had the courage to beat a dog that had fallen into the water, and the impact of their blows was not significant.

While the Celestial Dragons were morally depraved, their skin was also incredibly thick. Even being hit with a wolf-toothed club wouldn't cause a fatal injury anytime soon.

Afterward, Elatin's clothes were also stripped off, and the agents who had died here earlier suffered the same fate.

After piecing together several complete outfits, Ivankov's action team found some individuals with similar builds and completed the disguise. They planned to approach the center of the island and try to snatch some Devil Fruits to increase the success rate of their mission.

Oran, meanwhile, took the unconscious Elatin back to their original encampment. Shak had just sent word that, thanks to the efforts of the craftsmen, the device construction was finally complete.

Both plans had entered their final stages, and God Valley, unseen, had become the eye of the world's storm.

"It's pirates! Fire! Fire!"

On the outskirts of God Valley, the cannons on the warships unleashed their firepower frantically. The dense sea of pirate ships before them sent a jolt of fear through the Navy on the warships. These pirates were all notorious scoundrels, not a single easy opponent among them.

"What's going on? How can there be so many pirates!"

The Navy officer on watch was sweating profusely. In all his years in the Navy, this was the first time he had ever seen such a large number of pirates.

At first, the warships could hold back some pirate ships, but when a special flag appeared on the sea, that delicate balance instantly vanished.

"R...S...It's the Rocks Pirates! Repeat, the Rocks Pirates have appeared on the east side of the island, requesting backup!!!"

A burning skull replaced the 'o' in Rocks, and Rocks' iconic pirate flag began to flutter in the wind. As the strongest pirate of this era, his appearance even shattered some of the Navy's confidence.

They simply couldn't stop monsters like that, let alone a whole ship full of them.

"Useless Navy, Rocks Pirates! Everyone, follow me!"

On the main ship of the Rocks Pirates, a man with flowing long hair stood at the bow. With a mere wave of his hand, a warship was completely shattered by the sword energy he unleashed. Not seeing the familiar figures of the powerful Navy officers, Rocks' face was filled with disdain.

Without even waiting for the ship to dock, Rocks charged out.

"Hey, slow down, Rocks! Since when did we become your subordinates? You damn bastard."

Following Rocks, one towering figure after another gradually appeared: Whitebeard, Big Mom, Golden Lion, Kaido, John, Ochoku, Silver Axe...

Whether they were already famous great pirates or less renowned apprentices, they were all monsters.

"Rocks, that idiot, must have forgotten the original objective. We need to figure it out quickly."

"Newgate! What are you trying to be, the boss?! I'll beat all of you up!"

"Mmm~ Mmm~ Mmm~ Whatever Rocks is thinking, why don't we just sneak in, grab the stuff, and run? Do you really want to fight to the death here? I remember the message said the treasure is in the center of the island."

The composition of the Rocks Pirates was peculiar. To the outside world, they appeared as a unified force, but in reality, none of them respected each other. However, driven by common interests, they began to advance towards the center of the island.

"The Rocks Pirates have landed!"

"It's the Roger Pirates! They've appeared too, pirates everywhere! We can't hold them back!"

Without the support of top-tier combatants, the Navy's defenses crumbled at the slightest touch. These Navy soldiers, whose primary objective was to suppress the island's civilians, were utterly incapable of dealing with battles of this caliber.

"Navy, all go protect the Celestial Dragons! Organize their orderly evacuation! Divine Knights, deal with the enemies here!"

The reason the Navy's top combatants weren't present was simple: the Celestial Dragons and the World Government had their own high-end forces. At this moment, Gringo was tasked with dealing with these monsters.

"Are all the people back?"

"Reporting, Saint Gringo, all the Lords have returned except for Saint Elatin's team."

"Elatin... What's he dawdling for at a time like this..."

"Gringo! This is bad! Elatin's Vivre Card... it's vanished!"

"What did you say?!"

When the words of another Celestial Dragon reached his ears, Gringo doubted he had heard correctly.

The crafting process for Vivre Cards was extremely unique. Flames couldn't ignite them, water couldn't soak them, and no matter how small they were torn, they wouldn't disappear into thin air. There was only one situation that would turn them to ash.

This meant the owner of the Vivre Card was dead!
