The riots continued, smoke and fire raged, the snow on the ground was blown away, revealing the huge, ruined crater, and hurricanes swept around.

A chaotic mess, at the edge of the deep pit, a large, blood-soaked hand gripped the edge tightly and slowly climbed up.

Covered in wounds, the Corrupt King lay on the ground, raising his head. His hair was disheveled, and his large eyes were bloodshot. His legs were a mass of white bones, with pale flesh gushing blood. He had essentially lost the ability to move.

"Damn it!" The Corrupt King's face was contorted with rage as he looked at his thigh, which was now almost devoid of flesh and blood. He was covered in sweat and nearly fainted from the pain.

Just now, he had no idea what had happened; that Gunko had suddenly exploded like a bomb!

However, he survived, while his opponent was completely destroyed.

"Ha ha ha!" The Corrupt King laughed loudly, but before he could laugh for long, it was as if someone had grabbed him by the neck. His eyes bulged out as he stared in disbelief at the figure slowly emerging from the smoke in the distance.

"No way!"

His face was covered in blood, and the Corrupt King could not believe what he was seeing until Ye Chen stood in front of him.

Didi

Drops of blood slid from Ye Chen's mouth and landed in front of the Corrupt King. At this moment, Ye Chen's back was a blur, his face was completely bloodless, and his breath was extremely weak.

Clearly, this battle was not easy for him!

"How could you still be alive? I saw you explode with my own eyes!"

Lying on the ground, the Corrupt King struggled to lift his head, coughing up blood and roaring.

"Don't you know that there's something called Devil Fruit in this world?"

Bending down and grabbing the last remaining horn of the Corrupt King, Ye Chen dragged the Corrupt King towards Drum Mountain like a dead dog.

"You bastard!"

Dragged along by Ye Chen, the Corrupt King screamed repeatedly, leaving a trail of blood along the way, with bits of flesh visible.

Meanwhile, on Drum Mountain, after Ye Chen dealt with most of the pirates, the remaining warriors of the Drum Kingdom, under the leadership of their king, united to kill or capture the few remaining pirates.

When Ye Chen, covered in blood and dragging the Corrupt King had fainted from the pain, arrived before them, everyone looked at Ye Chen with awe and gratitude.

Sitting on a pile of stones, with the half-dead Corrupt King lying at his feet, Ye Chen up at the gathered Drum Kingdom and others. Just as he was about to speak, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Quickly, quickly, treat this gentleman."

First, Drum Kingdom called the doctor to treat Ye Chen's wounds on the spot.

When Ye Chen's back was revealed, everyone gasped, especially some of the children, whose eyes were immediately covered by their parents.

At this moment, there was not a single intact part of Ye Chen's back; bits and pieces of flesh hung there, revealing the bone beneath.

A large group of people were busy behind Ye Chen, while Ye Chen looked at the Drum Kingdom without changing his expression and said, "There are still some pirates at the coast, but I dealt with them before I came. Send troops to take care of them; also, tie this guy up, I need to take him away!"

"Yes"

The Drum Kingdom nodded, waved his hand, and someone left.

"Are you from the navy?" After giving his instructions, Drum Kingdom looked at Ye Chen gratefully.

"Yes, Major Rear Admiral." Ye Chen suddenly frowned and grunted, causing the doctor treating his wounds to stop immediately.

"You can continue." Turning his head, Ye Chen said to the anxious doctors, his face pale.

For some reason, everyone in the room had tears in their eyes.

Among them, some of the children all looked at Ye Chen with admiration.

"Alright."

Not long after, Ye Chen covered in bandages. The people who treated him were a man and a woman, who later became Dr. Hiriluk and Dr. Kureha, who adopted Chopper. However, the two of them looked much younger now.

"Rear Admiral General, you need to rest now, otherwise your injuries will worsen."

Dr. Kureha walked up to Ye Chen, her expression very solemn.

"This is troublesome." Ye Chen didn't try to be brave; he knew his own body.

"Quickly, help the Rear Admiral General to the palace!"

"No need, I can walk by myself."

And so, Ye Chen healed his injuries in the Drum Kingdom, with Dr. Hiriluk and Dr. Kureha as his primary physicians, for a week.

During this week, Ye Chen enjoyed the treatment of a king, and now, people throughout the country respect Ye Chen greatly.

At the mouth of the Drum Coast, a huge crowd had gathered, led by the Drum Kingdom, along with many doctors and commoners, all waving their hands toward the sea.

Dragging the Corrupt King, who was tightly bound by iron chains, Ye Chen jumped onto the wooden plank. With a loud bang, the plank shot out like an arrow.

The Corrupt King, who had not yet fully recovered, was brutally beaten by Ye Chen before leaving. Now, he lay on the wooden plank, barely alive, like a dead dog.

"Oh no, I forgot to ask the Rear Admiral General's name."

Drum Kingdom slapped his forehead. He had sent Ye Chen many things this week, but Ye Chen n't accepted any of them because he had no interest in treasures or the like.

"Rear Admiral General, please tell us your name. The Drum Kingdom will always be your friend!" the King of the Drum Kingdom shouted as he watched the figure gradually disappear into the distance.

""

A biting wind blew, and the muffled, indistinct reply reached everyone's ears!

"Did you hear me clearly?" Drum Kingdom frowned, looking at the minister beside him.

"Your Majesty, no, but we can inquire with the navy." A minister shook his head.

"Alright, by the way, let me remind the navy that this Rear Admiral is a friend of our Drum Kingdom."

"Knew!"

"It's a pity, we can't cure the Rear Admiral General's eyes."

Ye Chen was completely unaware that because of the Drum Kingdom's words, his life in the Navy became even smoother!

On the turbulent sea, Ye Chen sped along, glancing at the Eternal Pose given to him by the Drum Kingdom. He changed direction and raced towards Marineford.

In the Logia, there is a strange phenomenon: when the user transforms into an element and then reforms their body, their clothes remain intact, as if the clothes also transformed into an element at the moment of elementalization.

Ye Chen's explosion, starting from covering his entire body, could be exactly the same as elemental transformation if he wanted to. When he reassembled his body, everything would be intact, unless he was attacked.

This puzzled Ye Chen for a few minutes, but he quickly put it out of his mind. After all, this world was not normal to begin with, and Ye Chen even guessed that this might be one of the advantages of having a strong Logia.

How embarrassing would it be if you lost all your clothes every time you transformed into an elemental being?

Physics, laws, values, reality, order, and everything else are all different; any common sense simply doesn't apply in this world!

That's possible. This world is magical and beautiful. If those so-called experts from my past life came here, it would definitely shake my mind. Newton and the like would be turning in their graves.

However, while this world is indeed wondrous, it is also accompanied by darkness, cruelty, and morbidity.
