Pirates: Vengeance for My Family-Kill All the Celestial Dragons!

Chapter 47: He Was Already an Admiral-Level Fighter? The Five Elders and the Marines Were Shaken

"The world's highest authority—the Five Elders!"

"The Five Elders are all here? Amazing!"

"The Five Elders actually blocked Rocks, Golden Lion, and Shiki! Are they really that strong?"

The appearance of the Five Elders shocked everyone present—even the members of the Rocks Pirates!

Everyone only knew that the Five Elders were the world's highest authority. They had no idea that these people were actually so powerful!

Even the Marines had been completely unaware.

Only a few Marines who knew the truth, along with Rocks, Rono, Whitebeard, Shiki, and the others, remained calm.

With those useless Celestial Dragons, would anyone really willingly submit to them?

It was all because those Celestial Dragons had powerful backing!

Ultimately, this was a world where the one with the bigger fist made the rules!

Whoever had the biggest fist was a god!

If the Celestial Dragons had truly been a bunch of useless parasites, someone would have stormed the holy land of Mary Geoise long ago and riddled those pigs with bullets.

How could they have ruled the world for eight hundred years?

Of course, the Five Elders were merely the "public face" pushed to the forefront.

There was someone else truly powerful hiding behind the scenes.

The King of the World—Imu!

Even as a transmigrator, Rono had no idea how deep Imu's strength ran.

He only knew that this person was the true ruler of the World Government, an immortal who possessed some terrifying power.

"Still, I didn't expect the Five Elders to be this strong."

After probing them with Observation Haki, Rono was still somewhat surprised.

The five men's auras were all about the same. They were all at Emperor-Admiral level.

The World Government's foundations were truly deep.

Moreover, these five were different from the Five Elders in the original story. After all, the Five Elders in the original story should have been only in their thirties or forties at this point.

These five old men, however, already had gray hair.

Did the Five Elders change with each generation?

Besides the Five Elders, a group of masked CP0 agents also appeared at the scene!

Some of them were formidable fighters as well.

At least ten of them possessed the strength of elite vice admirals from Marine Headquarters.

When they saw the scene, they were immediately shocked.

"The Marines were actually beaten into this state?"

"Is the Rocks Pirates really that powerful?"

They rarely came into contact with pirates in their daily lives and had no idea what the world's strongest pirate crew was truly capable of.

Now, it seemed that the power of the world's strongest pirate crew was far beyond anything they could imagine.

"Look over there! Three gods have already been killed!"

At that moment, a sharp-eyed CP0 agent cried out in alarm!

He had clearly discovered the corpses of three Celestial Dragons at the scene!

Beside those corpses stood a young man around 2.5 meters tall (Rono's body was still growing).

He wore a clean white shirt and black trousers!

With a bounty of 1.5 billion!

The Seventh Division Commander of the Rocks Pirates!

[Most Evil Criminal] Rono!

When the CP0 agents saw the corpses of the three Celestial Dragons, they were first utterly shocked!

Then, after recovering, each of them erupted with killing intent and glared at Rono!

Although their expressions could not be seen beneath their masks, Rono could clearly feel that these CP0 agents were furious!

Even if their own fathers had died, they probably would not have been this angry.

"You bastard! You actually murdered a god!"

"You've committed a heinous capital crime, lowly commoner!"

At least three powerful elite vice admirals from Marine Headquarters immediately rushed to Rono's side.

"Rokushiki Ogi—Annihilation!"

One of the faster CP0 agents reached Rono and immediately unleashed a Rokushiki Ogi!

This technique fused the six powers of the Marines' Six Powers.

Its might was immense. Once activated, it generated a massive shock wave that pierced through the body and damaged the internal organs.

It was essentially a weaker version of Armament Haki: Ryuo.

"Wait! Rono is already at Admiral level! Don't go looking for death!"

At that moment, the young Vice Admiral Tsuru spoke from the side!

This information had to be conveyed to everyone present as quickly as possible!

After all, the battle just now had been incredibly intense.

Kong, Garp, Sengoku, and Zephyr had all been fighting with everything they had. How could they have paid attention to what was happening outside the battlefield?

Only Tsuru had seen Rono display strength no weaker than that of an Admiral-level fighter!

If they still thought Rono only had the strength reflected by his 1.5-billion bounty, they would suffer badly!

"What?!"

Before that CP0 agent could react, the Famous Sword Kotetsu passed effortlessly through his body!

Armament Haki: Ryuo instantly pierced through the CP0 agent's body, shattering his internal organs on the spot!

The next moment, the CP0 agent collapsed into a pool of blood!

"Admiral-level strength?!"

"Rono has broken through to Admiral level?"

"Tsuru, you're not joking, are you?"

Tsuru's words instantly left Kong, Garp, Sengoku, Zephyr, the Five Elders, and everyone else present horrified!

How long had it been since he first set out to sea? He already possessed Admiral-level strength?

Even though they knew how monstrously talented Rono was, the higher-ups of the Marines and the Five Elders were still so shocked by the news that they froze on the spot!

An Admiral and a vice admiral seemed to be separated by only one step.

But the gap between them was like a natural chasm!

There were only three Admiral positions in the entire Marine force!

Admirals were also recognized by the entire world as the World Government's greatest military power!

Of course, that was only the greatest power on the surface.

Vice admirals were far inferior.

From Admiral candidates and elite vice admirals at Marine Headquarters,

down to ordinary vice admirals at Marine Headquarters and the vice admirals stationed at Marine Base branches scattered throughout the world!

Counting the entire global Marine system, there were at least dozens of vice admirals!

This was enough to show the vast difference between the two!

Even an elite vice admiral from Marine Headquarters would only be instantly killed upon facing an Admiral!

"He's the Seventh Division Commander of our Rocks Pirates!"

"It was only natural for him to possess that kind of strength!"

Whitebeard threw his head back and laughed heartily. Seeing the expressions on the Marines' higher-ups was incredibly satisfying!

"Just watch. Marine Headquarters, you old geezers, and Rono are far more terrifying than you can imagine!"

"Your end is coming!"

Seeing the Five Elders' expressions, as though they had eaten excrement,

Rocks felt completely refreshed and unbelievably pleased!

The Five Elders—and the person behind you!

You useless fools, just wait for death!

Rono's talent was terrifying even to him!

You had no idea how frightening that man truly was!

"Damn it! He's actually an Admiral-level fighter!"

The other two CP0 agents had not expected their companion to be killed instantly.

Their strength was not much different from their companion's. Wouldn't they meet the same fate if they went up?

Thus, the two of them immediately turned and fled.

"Trying to run?"

Rono sneered and released Conqueror's Haki.

Dark-red waves of Haki wrapped around Kotetsu, radiating a dangerous yet captivating aura.

"Die!"

He swung his sword twice in succession. The two CP0 agents clearly dodged, yet they discovered that they had still been struck!

"What kind of power is this..."

Beneath their masks, the two CP0 agents slowly closed their eyes, their faces filled with incomparable shock!

They had clearly dodged, yet they had still been cut. They had never heard of such an ability!

"Three elite vice admirals were killed just like that!"

"That's Conqueror's Haki Coating!"

"What?! He has already mastered Conqueror's Haki Coating?"

At that moment, Kong, Zephyr, Sengoku, and Garp finally witnessed with their own eyes that Rono had mastered Conqueror's Haki Coating!

The four of them immediately sucked in a cold breath!

With Conqueror's Coating, there was no doubt that one had entered the ranks of Emperor-Admiral-level fighters!

How long had it been since this newcomer advanced to the Emperor-Admiral level—a realm that many people could never reach in their entire lives?

Chapter 48: So What If the Five Elders Came? These Celestial Dragons Must Die

"No wonder the Marines were defeated so completely!"

"Now that the Rocks Pirates have gained another Admiral-level combatant, their level of danger has risen dramatically!"

"Exactly. The impact of a single Admiral-level fighter on a war is far greater than that of a hundred thousand ordinary soldiers!"

"This guy is growing too quickly!"

Seeing Rono unleash Conqueror's Haki Coating,

it was not only the Marines' higher-ups who were deeply shocked.
