Proclaiming to the World, Aokiji's Allegiance

Marine Headquarters.

The entire navy stared in shock at Luo Wen, who was immortal and invincible, a god-like being among mortals.

Luo Wen took a step forward and gently clapped his hands.

It was a subtle movement, yet it immediately attracted the attention of the entire navy.

Every move of an absolute powerhouse is worth careful study by even the smallest ant.

Luo Wen addressed the Navy calmly, "Bring over all usable Visual Transponder Snail. I want to announce to the world."

"..."

Most of the navy looked at Luo Wen with fear, not wanting to take any action but daring not to do nothing, caught in a dilemma.

He was a god-like figure capable of annihilating three of the Five Elders; his commands were as authoritative as divine pronouncements.

But that god stood on the opposite side of them, the great enemy that shattered all the pride of the navy.

The sailors tried shifting their bodies back and forth by about 5 centimeters to the left and right, but they still didn't move.

Even if it meant death, they didn't want to bear the shame of being called the Deserter King.

Perhaps dying like this would be a relief, at least I wouldn't have to suffer the pain of shattered ideals anymore.

"Go, bring over all the Visual Transponder Snail." Sengoku sighed and said to the Navy, "This is my order."

This battle is over.

The World Government suffered a crushing defeat, and the Navy is no longer the one that suppresses the seas; it has become a vicious dog following the World Government, a pirate force on another level.

Having suffered such a blow, the Warring Sengoku was disheartened and utterly despondent. Everything in the world seemed utterly meaningless.

However, these remaining naval soldiers should not have lost their lives needlessly for such a navy.

"Fleet Admiral Sengoku..."

The navy personnel looked at Sengoku with puzzled expressions.

This imposing Fleet Admiral had led the navy for over a decade, now had a stooped posture.

Even the Fleet Admiral Sengoku was utterly disillusioned with the navy.

Upon receiving Sengoku's order, the surviving naval forces immediately sprang into action.

Although the entire Marine Headquarters was destroyed in a series of battles.

However, in the crucial strike, Luo Wen fired it into the sky, leaving behind many usable Visual Transponder Snail on the warships on the outskirts of Marine Headquarters.

Before long, dozens of Visual Transponder Snail surrounded Luo Wen from various angles.

The complete image of Luo Wen was projected onto television broadcasts around the world.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone at Marine Headquarters, and the entire world, Luo Wen began his declaration.

"Pirates wreak havoc across the land, the World Government is tyrannical and inhumane, and the vast majority of people in the world are sinking into misery."

"This has been the case for eight hundred years; the people have become accustomed to suffering."

"This world has been corrupt for a long time; this world is terminally ill."

"I will establish a new order, I will become the new ruler!"

"Therefore, I hereby issue a notice to the World Government, and to all pirates who wreak havoc on the seas."

"The end is near; await your death!"

Luo Wen's voice was not strained, but steady, yet it carried an unyielding will.

He wasn't declaring war, but rather announcing his victory in advance.

The World Government, which has stood for eight hundred years, and the turbulent Great Pirate Era, will both perish in his hands.

"This is utterly absurd confidence; he already considers the World Government as dead." Sengoku sighed as he looked at the confident Luo Wen.

Only Luo Wen had the confidence to consider so many forces as his own.

The World Government, which has stood for eight hundred years, has finally met its end.

"..."

The tens of thousands of naval personnel present looked at Luo Wen with very complicated expressions.

These are their enemies, yet the enemy's declaration is so powerful, so righteous.

Eradicating pirates was once their ideal. Overthrowing the World Government and annihilating the Celestial Dragons was something they dared not even think about.

Whether it was something they dared to think about or something they dared not think about, Luo Wen declared it to the world at this moment.

Moreover, Luo Wen were not empty talk; he put them into practice and has already achieved a resounding victory.

How should they conduct themselves?

Continue to align with the World Government and oppose Luo Wen.

World Government that exploits its people and destroys a country every three years.

To be an enemy of Luo Wen, who is as immortal and invincible as a god.

No matter how you look at it, this is not a good choice.

The tens of thousands of marines present immediately had their own ideas. Some wanted to retire and return to their hometowns to defend their territory. Others wanted to join the Neo Marines and work together to defeat the World Government.

Regardless of their thoughts, Luo Wen turned to Aokiji and said, "Aokiji, I've invited you several times. Now, do you want to join the Neo Marines? I'll still offer you the rank of Admiral."

Seeing that Luo Wen was blatantly poaching their partner, Sengoku and Kizaru's lips twitched, but they did nothing.

"I want to become Fleet Admiral in the Navy..."

Aokiji was speaking in a daze when he saw Luo Wen's ambiguous smile.

Luo Wen: "Fleet Admiral, is that a position even yours? Can the Navy's problems be solved simply by becoming a Fleet Admiral?"

"..."

Aokiji was speechless.

In this war, Akainu performed far better than him. Akainu was also favored by the Five Elders, and the position of Fleet Admiral was practically Akainu.

The navy has suffered heavy losses, but more seriously, its faith has collapsed.

Without Neo Marines, the navy could still compete with the pirates in terms of being bad and survive for a while.

Compared to the Neo Marines, the Navy itself is practically doomed.

The current navy is nothing short of a rotten, stinking cesspool.

Meanwhile, Luo Wen's Neo Marines has a bright future, with many former colleagues whose ideals align with his sense of justice.

Thinking this way, his lazy sense of justice was about to transform into a spirit of striving for justice.

"Now I only have one choice." After some thought, Aokiji made his decision. "I will join the Neo Marines and pursue true justice!"
