Entering a State of War

Inside the royal palace, everyone stared at the report before them, their faces grim, and the temperature in the entire hall plummeted to freezing.

"Blackbeard Pirates, Marines!"

Abnormal fluctuations occurred around Enel.

"Boss!"

Luo, Bege, and the others clenched their fists as they read the report.

"These reckless fools."

Rob Lucci snorted coldly, and veins bulged on his forehead.

"Let's start the war!"

Tesoro raised his head, looking at Kalifa and Reiju, whose pretty faces were cold and whose brows were furrowed, and his tone was explosive.

"The nation has entered a state of war. I'll go inform the boss; you can handle the rest."

Kalifa leaped into the air, said something to Reiju, and then flew out of the main hall.

Nodding, Reiju picked up a Red Den Den Mushi and dialed the number, alerting the entire nation's army and all its ministers.

At the same moment, piercing Red Alert sounded at all outposts across the country.

"Warning! Warning! Supreme command issued: the nation enters a state of war."

"Warning! Warning! Supreme command issued: the nation enters a state of war."

As the alarm sounded, all the guardians of Order Enforcers in the nation's cities, some of the stone-like soldiers, opened their eyes and launched into the air like cannonballs, stopping at specific locations.

"What happened"

Some outsiders stared at the soldiers with horror in their eyes.

There were too many, as numerous as locusts; in the blink of an eye, all the suspended mountains and streams were filled with soldiers.

"What happened? What's going on?"

Tourists watching the scene were all visibly alarmed, while the country's native inhabitants remained calm, though their faces were filled with anger.

"Your Majesty has done well; war should begin!"

"War has begun."

The country's declaration of war did not cause panic among the indigenous people; in fact, it aroused some public anger, because they all guessed what had happened.

Reports of the Rogue Rabbit being captured by Blackbeard and handed over to the Navy in exchange for a position Shichibukai, and the Navy's impending execution of the Rogue Rabbit, also circulated throughout the country.

"Fragrant Rice Island is sealed off; all residents must enter their homes, and anyone who parades through the streets will be executed."

"Cream Island is sealed off; all residents must enter their homes; anyone who parades through the streets will be executed."

"Candy Island is sealed off; all residents must enter their homes; anyone who parades through the streets will be executed."

Subsequently, all ministers in various regions of the country personally took action, declared a state of war, and squads of ordinary troops began to occupy the streets. In a short period of time, the country came under military control.

"Why should I be here as a tourist?"

Some tourists glared angrily and refused to enter the house, preferring to continue their visit.

"Idiot, get in here right now!"

Tourists with indigenous ties were all forcibly dragged into the house, but those without indigenous ties continued to do as they pleased, dying on the spot without even knowing how they died.

Those who are paraded through the streets will be executed.

They didn't give you a chance to speak at all; wherever the army went, if there were still wanderers on the streets, they were wiped out on the spot.

As the land was bathed in blood and corpses, the entire country went mad, and the atmosphere was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.

On Flour Island, some tourists looked at the mangled corpses on the street from their rooms, their faces filled with horror. These people had really been killed.

"Brother, what exactly happened?"

Some tourists, their expressions changing drastically, asked the local guide for his opinion.

"Please do not go out until the alarm is lifted. There is a three-month supply of food in the room. As your guide, I will take responsibility for you, but only if you follow my instructions. Otherwise, no one can help you."

The Vast Kingdom has become a popular tourist destination in recent years, which has naturally created the profession of tour guide. What is happening now is happening in almost every place.

"Tour guide, has the country gone mad?! I just saw that person was the prince of the Windmoon Kingdom, and now he..."

"A prince? Even if it were Old Man Wang, he'd die if he dared to go out now!"

The tour guide was a skinny man, but he glared angrily and snorted coldly.

"Tour guide, have a smoke. Can you tell us what's going on here?"

A quick-thinking tourist pulled out a pack of cigarettes and lit one for the tour guide himself.

"Don't worry, everyone. As I said before, since I'm your tour guide, I'll be responsible for your safety. However, things are different now than before, so you must listen to me, otherwise I really can't help you."

The tour guide exhaled a smoke ring, his expression serious and his face tense.

"Certainly"

Even an idiot would know what happened in the country now. Didn't you see those people who were still on the streets have been swept together like garbage?

Internal organs, severed limbs, and heads—the entire street was almost entirely red; it was horrifying to look at.

"Everyone saw the soldiers stationed on each street just now flying into the air!"

"I saw it! I saw it! And the sirens are going off in the streets!"

"That's good. There are two types of alerts in the country: one is a regular alert, and the other is War Alert issued by the highest command. The alert we just heard was a War Alert. War Alert means that the country may be about to launch a war against a power, and that power is at least at the level of Four Emperors."

"As soon as this alarm sounds, the entire country will be under martial law, and all soldiers will be put on a state of war. No one is allowed to roam any area of the country; all areas will be under the jurisdiction of the regular army. Now, no matter who you are, if you go out, you will be erased."

With a serious expression, the tour guide began his explanation to everyone.

"What? War is about to break out?"

"Even the lowest-level forces are at the level of the Four Emperors?"

This caused a huge uproar, alarming all the tourist communities.

"But why? I haven't heard of any force provoking the Four Emperors lately, let alone launching a full-scale war. This is a fight to the death!"

"Idiot, didn't you see the latest news? The Rogue Rabbit was captured by the Blackbeard Pirates and handed over to the Navy in exchange for Shichibukai position. Moreover, the Navy is going to execute the Rogue Rabbit in front of the whole world soon. This is simply a blatant slap in the face to the nation."

"Has the Navy gone mad? Capturing that Rogue Rabbit is one thing, but to publicly execute him?"

"It seems that even if it weren't for the sake of the Rogue Rabbit country, we would have no choice but to go to war, after all, it's a matter of face."

"No wonder the country has entered a state of war; after all, it's a navy, and the World Government is behind it."

"So everyone, please don't go out. No matter who you are or what your reason is, you will die if you go out now."

Suppressing all the chatter, the tour guide repeatedly reminded them.

Of course, the fact that the country had entered a state of war was quickly known to other powers at sea; after all, such a large-scale operation could not be kept secret.

The country's major move also shook the world. After all, this was no ordinary move. Anyone who wasn't blind knew that the country was serious, and it might even be a war of national annihilation.

If the navy does not back down, the nation will definitely intervene, and the war will be enormous. Even if one side wins in the end, they will be crippled or even perish together.

If this war were to occur, the world order might be altered, and the consequences would be unpredictable.
