The New World, formerly Whitebeard Sea: Song and Dance Island.

It was a small island, rich in resources and famous for its songs, dances and music, but it changed hands half a month ago.

The once bustling streets were now somewhat dilapidated, with traces of blood visible in the finer details, and the pedestrians on the island seemed to be hurrying along.

"Knock knock"

Long, orderly, and vast armies paraded through the streets to maintain order, and all those who caused trouble were purged within the past two weeks.

A somber atmosphere still hangs over the entire island, and the residents on both sides of the street look fearfully at the identical army in the middle.

"Are these the soldiers of the nation? They slaughtered the royal family in an instant."

Recalling what happened half a month ago, when a troop of soldiers suddenly arrived from a country that was part of the Four Emperors' power, declaring that the island should submit to the country.

Song and Dance Island was originally under the protection of the Whitebeard Pirates. Perhaps having become accustomed to the Whitebeard Pirates' protection, the Song and Dance Island royal family openly rebelled, and the result was predictable.

When a man and a woman led the team, the royal guards were slaughtered on the spot, leaving no one alive, and even the entire royal family was wiped out.

Overbearing and bloody, with the death of the royal family, the entire Song and Dance Island descended into chaos, with killings and looting occurring frequently; then a man and a woman from the Kingdom issued an order, and with this order, the total population of the Song and Dance Island was reduced by two-tenths.

That means at least hundreds of thousands of people were killed, and it was this bloodbath that silenced the entire Song and Dance Island.

In the heart of the Song and Dance Island, a luxurious royal city sits, but at this moment, all is silent. Some guards and maids look at the soldiers stationed on both sides, their faces ashen.

"Is anyone still resisting?"

In the royal palace, Monet was handling matters when the Ripper at Monet and felt a chill run down his spine.

This woman appeared harmless, even unique due to her perfect face, but what he saw and heard along the way while accompanying her to subdue the island completely filled him with trepidation.

Along the way, they had already subdued five islands; this was the sixth.

Submit, or die. This woman carried out Reiju's orders perfectly; the subjugation of these six islands can be summed up in one word: slaughter.

Resist, kill; disobey, kill; troublemakers, kill; the whole way here was one of killing, using corpses and fresh blood to quell all unrest.

The number of deaths on these six islands could be as high as mountains and as deep as rivers of blood.

"Lord Monet, the Song and Dance Island is now under our control, and no one dares to resist."

Bloodlust surged. Ten battalion commanders knelt in the main hall, each commanding ten battalion commanders, and each of the ten battalion commanders had one hundred soldiers.

In other words, a battalion commander is equivalent to controlling ten ordinary captains plus a thousand soldiers; currently, there are ten thousand soldiers on the Song and Dance Island, one hundred general captains plus ten battalion commanders.

Apart from the soldiers, whether they were captains or battalion commanders, they were all highly skilled fighters capable of taking on hundreds or thousands of enemies single-handedly.

"Very good. Once the next minister takes over, we will move forward."

Monet raised her head, brushed the hair from her forehead behind her ear, and remained calm.

"Yes."

Clad in armor, the ten captains rose to leave, but then shouts of battle erupted outside.

Monet frowned and looked at the ten captains. Weren't there no troublemakers?

"Bang!"

The walls crumbled, and a soldier collapsed in the hall amidst the swirling dust.

"These are the soldiers of the nation? They're nothing special."

Somewhat arrogant, as the dust settled, a figure revealed its face.

Seeing this figure, Monet stood up.

"Gasparde, the Popularity King of the Shichibukai."

"The country sent a woman?" Gasparde looked at Monet with some surprise. He had thought he would encounter some important figures from the country, such as the Gild Tesoro and Burning.

"Kill him."

With a frosty expression, Monet gave the order without uttering a single word; instantly, ten battalion commanders charged towards Gasparde.

Looking at the ten captains who had transformed into various ferocious beasts, Gasparde's lips curled into a sneer, but his expression changed drastically after the actual clash.

"Go and see what's going on outside?"

Seeing Gasparde temporarily suppressed, Monet turned to the Ripper beside him.

"Yes."

With a reply, the Ripper vanished in the blink of an eye, only to reappear a few seconds later.

"A group of pirates suddenly appeared outside, wearing green halos around their necks; they must have been controlled by the Pet King."

During the Century War, Pet King became famous. Just by taking action against Kaido of the Four Emperors of the Beasts, he was famous enough to make a name for himself. Therefore, it was not difficult for Ripper to recognize Pet King's abilities.

"Haha, it seems Guoman knows his stuff."

As the Ripper finished speaking, several people walked in from outside. Both Monet and the Ripper were unsettled upon seeing these people.

"Pet King Breed."

"Shichibukai, Big Bear King of the Seven Warlords of the Sea"

"Diamond Jozu."

"Vista the Flower Sword."

The fighting ceased, and all ten captains withdrew to guard Monet's front.

"Inform God that our captain is waiting for him here."

With a rugged face, the Big Bear King looked at Monet with a hint of amazement.

"The Red the Aloof Patrick Redfield?"

Looking towards the door, Monet didn't see what he was looking for.

Not long after, at the Imperial City on the God's Island, Reiju, who was handling government affairs, heard the sound of Den Den Mushi on her desk.

Shortly after the connection was established, Reiju's expression gradually turned grim.

Tell them to wait.

After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, Reiju disappeared from the main hall.

In the palace's back garden, Ye Chen didn't cultivate; instead, he spent time with Gion and the princess.

"Boss, Red the Aloof has made her move."

As she flew down, Reiju spoke frankly.

Setting down his teacup, Ye Chen looked indifferently at Reiju. "Where?"

" On the Song and Dance Island, the route Monet is in charge of, he wants to see you, Boss."

"Ye Chen."

"Dad."

Both pairs of large eyes turned to Ye Chen.

"Good boy, Daddy will be right back." After patting the little guy's head, Ye Chen glanced at Gion again before his figure began to fade away.

"Notify Enel and the others."

"Yes, boss."

Only an echo remained, and Ye Chen had already vanished into the distance.

"Brubrubru"

After Ye Chen left, Reiju notified Enel and the others who were also out there.

"Reiju, will you be alright?"

Somewhat worried, Gion also wanted to go and see, but before she could even speak, Ye Chen disappeared.

"No one on this ocean has been able to defeat the boss yet, so there's nothing we can do to help."

After notifying Enel and the others, Reiju hung up the Den Den Mushi without showing any worry.

There is a blind worship of Ye Chen's strength throughout the country, especially after the explosion at Marineford. Now, everyone on the high seas believes that God is the strongest of the Four Emperors.

Moreover, Enel, Rob Lucci, and Tesoro have all rushed over. If a war were to break out, even with three Shichibukai and the Whitebeard Pirates, the Red the Aloof would undoubtedly lose.
