No Challenge at All

"I'll risk my pride as a soldier, even if it means dying, I'll take a few down with me."

"When you make your move, kill those Celestial Dragons ' lackeys first. The code is, One Piece."

When Miming entered Pangaea Castle, the other Celestial Dragons had no idea that today would be an unforgettable day for them.

As night fell, everyone was anticipating something. Would the city really catch fire? Who could set fire to the heavily guarded Holy Land Mary Geoise? And a fire that would alert the entire city?

However, a roaring fire broke out, as if responding to expectations, illuminating the night sky of Mary Geoise.

Fisher Tiger climbed the 8,000-meter- Red Line. In the secret cave where he had once awoke, there was a brand-new map marking the locations of the guards and the fuel depot. His mission was to fight his way into the residential area and set the fuel depot on fire. He easily made his way in following the route, the same route he had taken to escape a year ago: swimming upstream from the river into the moat to enter the city, and then diving into the large lake, where the fuel depot was located. As Fish-Man, this waterway, plus killing a few guards, was a piece of cake.

He thought about it for a long time and considered escaping. But in that year, because of his escape, the price of Fish-Man slaves tripled! Especially young and beautiful Mermaid girls, who could sell for 80 million Berry each!

He couldn't get past this hurdle; too many of his fellow Fish-Man had been captured. Saint Sanming was a demon, but he had no choice but to obey this demon's orders and take this gamble.

"I've lived enough." With this determination, Tiger returned to Mary Geoise once again.

The moment he threw the torch into the fuel depot, flames shot into the sky.

Those few breaths felt like an eternity to Tiger. Then, a chorus of shouts erupted throughout Mary Geoise: "One piece!"

In an instant, Mary Geoise was engulfed in flames, leaving Fisher Tiger stunned. How many people had set fires simultaneously?

"It's Fisher Tiger!" The guards rushed over at the sound of the voice and were horrified to see the corpses scattered all over the ground.

Tiger roared, his fist sending dozens of guards flying as he pounced on Celestial Dragons passing by.

"Huh?" The Celestial Dragons, sitting atop a slave's back and watching the spectacle, was suddenly shocked to see his personal guards being knocked down! The surrounding guards were reduced to bloody messes by the incredibly fast punches...

In the arena, the Chief Warden and dozens of guards turned to stone before Hancock, and then the cell keys were quickly thrown into the various cells, releasing the gladiators first.

"Kill them!" The gladiators armed themselves as quickly as possible and, following the instructions of the Boa Sisters and Dice, split up and charged off, throwing torches in all directions.

"Die! The slave collars will explode once you leave the arena, ha ha ha!" The arena guards, clad in sturdy armor and fully armed, stood in formation outside the arena gates, waiting for the gladiators who rushed out to be killed by the slave collars. The slave collars could not be opened; any attempt to break or remove them, or to leave the designated area, would result in an explosion.

Then they watched in alarm as the gladiators charged forward, but there was no explosion. Why?

With a menacing grin, Dice, leading a group of towering gladiators, swung his giant axe and cleaved the guarding square into pieces.

"Idiots, all the slave collars were petrified while fighting Hancock!" All the gladiators grinned and pounced. Without the slave collars causing trouble, the guards were just a bunch of scum!

It's a secret: Hancock can petrify not only humans, but also objects! This was true in the arena and while she was being treated in the hospital! Those slave collars still looked like slave collars, but the two spherical explosive devices inside and out had turned to stone!

Below the moving walkway, the overseer was suddenly stabbed in the back, and immediately a multitude of slaves pounced on him and snatched the keys.

"Bastards, how dare you rebel? You can't escape! Ah--!" The overseer, completely bewildered, tried to activate the explosive device on the slave collars but failed.

Most of the slaves were still unaware of what was happening when someone shouted at them, "Tell everyone that women and children should walk down the moving walkway! Men, go and set fires! Quickly, tell everyone to turn their backs to Pangaea Castle! Avoid the main roads!"

The entire Mary Geoise was in chaos, and the Celestial Dragons, in a panic, fled to Pangaea Castle under the guidance of CP0. According to the evacuation manual, they first went to the main road to obtain protection, and then entered Pangaea Castle as quickly as possible. In case of an incident, all agents and guards would protect the Celestial Dragons and evacuate them through the main road.

Many Celestial Dragons were dragged out of their dreams by CP0. The city was in chaos, with shouts of killing filling the air. No one dared to linger. The automated walkways were destroyed. The slaves who were used as mounts saw an opportunity and fought back like madmen. The Celestial Dragons, who rarely even walked, could only be carried away quickly by the agents.

"This is..." Commander-in-Chief Saint Chester Nimi was jolted awake from his dream. Looking at the flames soaring into the sky above Mary Geoise, he realized with shock that the prophetic dream of Saint Jalmack's Son had come true! It wasn't just some random nightmare that a Celestial Dragons had to torment the military; it had truly come true with uncanny accuracy!

"What the hell are all these defense forces doing?!" Saint Chester Nimi angry that his Whitebeard trembled uncontrollably. He rushed out without even putting on his clothes and grabbed the incessantly ringing Den Den Mushi.

"The Revolutionary Army infiltrated Mary Geoise directly and set it ablaze! No defensive units were attacked!" the voice on the Den Den Mushi reported. "There are too many fires; enemy forces are spread throughout the city!"

"Immediately follow the plan and escort all the World Nobles into Pangaea Castle! Be quick!" At this moment, Saint Chester Nimi deeply regretted not taking Miming's precognitive dream seriously.

The Revolutionary Army had been waiting for a brief Vacuum in Mary Geoise's defenses. As soon as the CP0 escorted the Celestial Dragons away, the real climax of the riot began. The Celestial Dragons' residences near Pangaea Castle were the first to be attacked, and the freed slaves rushed towards the outskirts of the residential area. At first, agents and Celestial Dragons ' guards were out there trying to capture them, but in the blink of an eye, the frenzied slaves swelled to thousands, surging towards the outskirts like a tidal wave.

In the palace closest to Pangaea Castle, the Celestial Dragons had already entered Pangaea Castle under the escort of CP0, but many agents were still guarding the palace. Fire suddenly broke out everywhere, and in the chaos, a large hole was breached in the wall of the courtyard where slaves were imprisoned.

"Damn it!" Several agents opened fire, blocking the masked men who rushed into the mansion. "Who are you?"

"We are the Revolutionary Army! Surrender!" The enemy charged forward recklessly through the hail of bullets, the bullets ricocheting off their bodies.

"Kill them!" The agents were not to be outdone. Several skilled fighters rushed forward and exchanged blows, neither gaining the upper hand. Amidst the shouts, two exceptionally strong Revolutionary Army were surrounded by a large group of agents and found themselves in a fierce battle.
