The news of Dongye Huanglong attacking the North Blue prison and Marine branch, while not as significant as his declaration of war on the Celestial Dragons, still stirred up quite a few powers.
Because Dongye Huanglong's location shifted so rapidly, traveling from the West Blue to the North Blue in just a week and then attacking the North Blue prison, this speed even surprised some of the Yonko crews.
Does this mean the entire world will become Dongye Huanglong's backyard, where he can go wherever he pleases?
Moreover, Dongye Huanglong's group, along with Tyrant Kuma, seems to be on par with the Shichibukai in terms of influence.
This made the major pirate crews eager to see how this Experiment Subject, Dongye Huanglong, would retaliate against the World Government and Celestial Dragons, and to what extent he could go.
The World Government not only dispatched several CP0 teams and countless CP Agents but also issued a mandatory order to the Shichibukai to hunt down Dongye Huanglong.
However, Shichibukai like Boa Hancock and Jinbe completely ignored this order.
Gecko Moria and Crocodile scoffed at it.
Only Hawk Eyes Mihawk and Doflamingo responded briefly, driven by their own ulterior motives.
In a certain sea area of the North Blue, a yellow submarine was moving across the surface of the sea.
Dongye Huanglong and his crew stood on the small deck, gazing at the boundless ocean.
"Group Leader Huanglong, two days ago the Germa Evil Legion, hired by the Kingdom of Blethen, fought a war in the North Iland Kingdom and successfully breached their royal capital.
If we head south now, we should be able to catch up to Germa 66's Snail Sea Ship."
Lafitte, with his white wings, circled above the submarine, acting as a lookout.
"Germa's army is overwhelmingly dominant in the North Blue. Their strength is enough to venture into the New World.
But in their pursuit of restoring Germa's glory of unifying the North Blue, they've remained entrenched there.
If not for the World Government's coordination and the combined resistance of numerous affiliated nations, they might have conquered a large portion of the North Blue countries."
Capone Bege, the Mafia boss of the West Blue, was also very concerned about the situation in the North Blue. He was also fortunate that the Germa Legion wasn't in the West Blue, otherwise, his Mafia would truly have no chance of unifying the West Blue underground gangs.
"After Judge's successful escape from the M team, under the World Government's covert pressure, even if his strength became immense and he successfully revived the Vinsmoke Family, the World Government would only allow the Kingdom of Germa to establish a nation without territory.
The World Government would not permit the emergence of a powerful nation that unified the North Blue.
Therefore, the territory-less Germa Legion can only earn funds for development by acting as mercenary soldiers in wars."
Vegapunk explained. In reality, Vinsmoke Judge's desire to restore his ancestors' glory was practically impossible.
The World Government was an insurmountable obstacle for them.
Unless Judge could ally with a few Yonko to overthrow the World Government, they might have a slim chance of unifying the North Blue.
"The Vinsmoke Family's obsession with unifying the North Blue is too deep, and with the promotion through various news outlets, the Germa Legion is synonymous with evil. The people of the North Blue will not accept their rule."
Wolf, a North Blue native, said earnestly. If the Vinsmoke Family had left the North Blue and entered the Grand Line and New World, they might have developed better than they are now.
But the ambition to unify the North Blue was too extravagant. Not only were the kings of the North Blue unwilling, but even the World Government was unwilling.
"Stop. What does it matter to us if the Vinsmokes want to unify the North Blue? I'm the one who's going to take them down!"
Dongye Huanglong waved his hand, interrupting their evaluation of the Germa Legion. He wasn't interested in the Vinsmoke's history.
He only needed things that were useful to him.
"By the way, Law, Bege, Lafitte, do you have the confidence to deal with one of Germa's strongest modified humans?"
Dongye Huanglong said calmly. He and Kuma would be the ultimate backup this time, but he also hoped these subordinates could contribute something.
"I've heard that Germa's offspring are all invincible modified humans, with exoskeletons whose defense is impervious to blades and bullets, and they possess immense strength."
Trafalgar Law said with a grave expression. He wasn't confident he could handle a modified human warrior who could transform.
Perhaps even the Armament Haki that Dongye Huanglong mentioned might not be enough to break through the powerful defenses of the four Germa siblings.
"The three of you can team up to handle one, and the rest will be up to Kuma and me!"
Dongye Huanglong said casually, confident in his and Kuma's strength.
He also wanted to unleash his abilities to his heart's content on Germa.
He needed a thoroughly satisfying battle to test his combat power.
"If it's three against one, it should be fine!"
Capone Bege said somewhat dejectedly. He felt a bit underestimated, but he didn't have enough confidence to deal with the legendary modified human warriors, especially since he hadn't fought one before.
Now they could team up to gauge the strength of these modified humans before deciding on the subsequent battles.
This Mafia boss, like Law, was proud and wouldn't admit to being inferior to those modified humans.
"Perhaps I can talk to Judge first."
Vegapunk said. He had a good relationship with the members of the M team, and Judge should give him some face.
"Negotiations must be based on strength. Let's fight a round first!"
Dongye Huanglong didn't think Vinsmoke Judge was easy to deal with. That guy had strong control issues; without defeating him, there was no possibility of communication.
"Then you decide."
Vegapunk spread his hands, then continued to treat Bonney. Dongye Huanglong ordered them to continue pursuing the Germa Legion.
He even flew into the sky with Lafitte, searching everywhere for the whereabouts of the Germa 66 legion.
At this time, on a group of Snail Sea Ships.
Vinsmoke Judge also saw the news of Dongye Huanglong attacking the North Blue prison, and he became a little interested in this "dragon crossing the river."
"Is this the strongest creation of Vegapunk and the science division?
I wonder who is stronger, him or my creations!"
Judge was very confident in the strength of Reiju and Ichiji. He believed that his own technology in human modification was slightly superior to Vegapunk's.
If possible, he also wanted his four children to compete with Dongye Huanglong.
However, Judge suddenly thought of Queen, and his expression turned very displeased.
That guy Queen, relying on the powerful recovery ability of the Ancient Zoan Ancient Dragon Fruit, had actually integrated all of Spark Red, Invisible Black, Electric Blue, and Winch Green's bloodline factor technologies into himself.
What he hated the most was that Queen would flaunt it at him from time to time, even threatening him with his identity as the Plague Disaster of the Beasts Pirates.
Now, the person Judge hated the most was that fatso Queen!
However, Queen of Plague had also proven to him that the research direction of ability aggregation was feasible. This Experiment Subject 88 should now be a more perfect modification than Queen.
If he could capture Dongye Huanglong, he might even be able to decipher the latest technology of Vegapunk and the entire science division.
Thinking of this, Judge suddenly had a desire to obtain the technology and secrets on Dongye Huanglong.
Now that Dongye Huanglong had appeared in the North Blue, this might also be an opportunity for him.
