Show of Force

Would you mind doing me a favor?

Xia Le said calmly.

"Your subordinate would be more than happy to!"

Proche was taken aback, and quickly replied respectfully.

"Move everyone off this Island!"

Xia Le.

"Ah?"

Proche was taken aback, a look of bewilderment in his eyes.

"I heard your Hometown is in the South Blue?"

Xia Le then asked another question.

"Yes, Vice Admiral General!"

Proche, looking puzzled, replied.

Xia Le didn't say anything more, but walked forward along the street.

Along the way, he saw familiar faces on the island. These people clearly recognized him the moment they saw him, and the expressions on their faces betrayed them immediately.

Xia Le nodded to the villagers, giving them a reassuring look.

His eyes flickered, and he understood.

Clearly, the villagers on the island knew about Roger and were equally familiar with Rouge. However, they did not reveal this Intelligence despite frequent interrogations by the Navy.

Only that one person reported the incident to the Navy.

This reflects both the timidity of ordinary people who are unwilling to cause trouble and the kindness in the hearts of these most ordinary people.

Everyone knew very well what kind of future this frail, helpless pregnant woman would face when Portgas D. Roger's identity was revealed.

"If you were to execute these innocent pregnant women yourself..."

Xia Le paused slightly, her gaze fixed on the women ahead, their faces filled with fear and worry.

Most of these women had protruding bellies, indicating that they were pregnant women on the Island at this time of year.

Upon Wen Yan, Proche trembled and dared not respond for a long time.

"Is it that you're afraid? Or that you're unwilling to make the move?"

Xia Le laughed.

"She, they, are all innocent."

Proche observed the other person's expression and said cautiously.

"Innocent?"

Xia Le chuckled softly.

"What if one of Roger's bloodlines is mixed in?"

Proche shuddered. "Are we going to kill all the other innocent people just because of Roger?"

Upon Wen Yan, Xia Le strode forward and continued walking.

After a long while, Proche finally heard a sentence.

"This is exactly what they're supposed to do!"

The voice paused.

"But not us."

Proche a sigh of relief, but then his heart was filled with complicated emotions.

His series of responses were all based on his assessment of the rumors circulating about the other party.

Equal Justice, and the kindness to protect the weak!

Sending Vice Admiral Xia Le on such a mission was inherently cruel.

However, his swift and decisive actions upon arriving on the Island also indicate that he is not a gentle person, nor is he a foolish or kind-hearted individual.

"Move everyone off this Island and find them a safe place."

Xia Le said calmly.

"Yes!"

Proche immediately responded.

As he watched the other person's figure gradually disappear from his sight, a genuine sense of reverence appeared in his eyes.

He was well aware of the complex situation Xia Le would face next.

Neither the Marine Headquarters nor the World Government are easily fooled.

The order from above was to get rid of all pregnant women on Baterilla Island, not to determine the source or veracity of the information.

These are two different concepts!

This means that Xia Le has disobeyed orders.

The evacuation was proceeding swiftly and efficiently; Proche personally led the operation and repeatedly explained the procedures as he helped the pregnant women onto the ship.

"You should thank Superior Officer Xia Le!"

"Otherwise."

With that, Proche sighed and turned to leave.

The ordinary people, upon learning that they had just narrowly escaped death, felt both horrified and relieved.

The Warship was anchored in the Harbor. Proche stood at the bow, gazing into the distance at the tall, robust figure standing in the center of the Island.

"All civilians have been evacuated. What is Superior Officer Xia Le going to do next?"

With a sense of doubt, Proxiu turned his head and saw that the officers under his command on the Xia Le warship were already in place.

"Boom!"

Immediately afterwards, another thunderclap resounded in their ears, and golden Electric Flash streaked across the sky.

Is it going to rain?

"The sky was perfectly clear just a moment ago."

"Proche murmured."

Suddenly.

At the center of the Island ahead, Electric Flash flashed, and a dazzling, bright, and terrifying dragon, imbued with intense heat, roared as it shot straight up to the sky.

In an instant, the dragon collided with the Thundercloud above the Island.

"Buzz!"

An invisible ripple spread, and dark clouds suddenly expanded, instantly enveloping the entire Island, reaching a radius of nearly ten thousand meters.

"It's Vice Admiral Xia Le!!"

Proche awoke with a start, his eyes wide with shock.

Then, as Thundercloud Inazuma across the thunderclouds, he suddenly realized what was happening.

"Quick!!"

"Get out of here immediately!!"

"Hurry up!"

Proche understood; he was only guessing, but he was already eighty percent certain of one thing.

That is.

Vice Admiral Xia Le is likely to destroy this Island!!

Just then, Inazuma burst forth from the Thundercloud above the Island, with countless blue arcs of electricity extending in all directions.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

A sudden Gale disrupted the tranquility of the skies above Baterilla Island.

The Thundercloud that had enveloped the entire Island contracted imperceptibly, gradually forming a sphere, and the Inazuma within them became even more terrifying.

"Raigo!"

Amidst the Gale, a voice suddenly resounded.

Proche's eyes widened, he gasped, and his whole body trembled.

Chapter 94 Demonstration

Gale surged, and thunder roared.

Proche stared wide-eyed in shock at the colossal object atop the sky.

The pitch-black clouds gathered into a spherical shape, like a giant black ball, with countless tiny lights flashing on its surface, extending out in dense blue arcs of electricity.

It is impossible to estimate the terrifying energy contained within this giant sphere, or the destructive power it can cause.

But Proche was certain that this was definitely not formed naturally.

The reason for all of this lies with that young Vice Admiral.

When he looked again at the center of the Island ahead, Xia Le had disappeared from his sight. It wasn't until a moment later that he noticed a figure crackling with Lightning beneath the massive, dark sphere.

"Boom!"

Countless thunderous sounds overlapped, forming a deep, awe-inspiring celestial sound.

The wind was already howling, ripples were spreading into the distance, and the air itself seemed to be distorted.

"This is the outpost before a natural disaster strikes!"

Staring at the enormous ball of Inazuma in the sky, Proche exclaimed in shock.

Behind him, the sailors all looked up at the strange sight in the sky, while the civilians huddled together in fear, trembling.

"Boom!"

At that moment, a deafening sound rang out.

People saw that the huge black sphere suddenly released countless fine arcs of electricity, and then, as if activated, its entire body became bright, dazzling, and scorching hot.

It slowly fell from the sky, heading towards Baterilla Island below.

This scene appeared slow, but it was actually extremely fast, lasting only about one or two breaths.

When the black sphere collided with the Island's surface, everyone was temporarily blinded, and their ears were filled with terrifying sounds.

Countless Inazuma, including giant Inazuma thousands of meters long, shot out, sweeping across the entire Island with explosive, frenzied, and icy force.

Buildings are disintegrating, trees are turning into particles, Flame are rising, and the ground is scorched.

Everything was being Annihilation, shrouded in the dazzling Lightning, and turned into nothingness in the distortion.

Proche trembled all over, staring blankly at the scene.

He could hardly describe the shock he felt at that moment; he was filled with awe at the young Vice Admiral's power.

A wave of air swept over him, ruffling his robes and blowing the Warship further away.

Space itself seemed to warp at that moment, Baterilla Island appeared as if it had transformed into a sun, its scorching, blinding light radiating outwards.

Unable to discern exactly how much time had passed, the light gradually faded, and the sailors opened their eyes, feeling only a stinging pain and tears welling up.

When they saw the scene on the Island ahead, their mouths gaped open.

"Hiss!!"

"What about Baterilla Island?"

"Everything has vanished!"
