Nine Mask Svāhā, Move!
Rocks pierced the sky, waves crashed against the shore, and naval warships surrounded and intercepted the floating fragments of Whole Cake Island from all directions, sealing them off in the blink of an eye.
"The Four Emperors, Uchiha Huayue, has repeatedly violated world laws, attacked God Valley, and caused the deaths and injuries of tens of thousands of world nobles."
"The charges of interfering with the Buster Call, wantonly attacking and killing naval personnel with violence, and deciphering Poneglyph are true. The Buster Call is hereby issued to eliminate the dangerous elements roaming the seas."
"Do you have any more excuses to make?"
At this moment, Fleet Admiral Sengoku stepped forward, unfolded the materials in his hands, and listed Uchiha Huayue's crimes one by one.
"Solution? Heh, hahahahaha..."
Upon hearing Sengoku's question, Uchiha Huayue laughed instead of getting angry, as if he had heard some amusing story.
"What are you laughing at? What's so funny? Are you trying to deny the crimes you've committed, or are you planning to make a last-ditch effort before you die..."
On the deck of the warship, Sakazuki took a deep drag on his cigar, exhaled a thick cloud of smoke, and his brows were furious.
Last time he was beaten up without any explanation, and this time he will absolutely not allow himself to make the same mistake again, no matter whether the opponent is one of the Four Emperors.
Kuzan, standing far away, frowned. He had a feeling that Uchiha Huayue wouldn't be the kind of person to be captured easily, especially since such a vicious and ruthless pirate probably had a backup plan.
Borsalino, standing between the two, yawned lazily, seemingly contemplating how he should slack off later.
The Marine Admiral admiral have both arrived. As a mere vice admiral, I shouldn't have any problems if I don't make a move, right? Probably...
"Sorry, sorry, I just heard a funny joke. You want to use the laws of the World Government to judge my existence as a non-member of the World Government?"
"Moreover, even the title of Four Emperors was bestowed upon me by you yourselves. What right do you have to accuse me of crimes first and then put me on trial? Just because you are the World Government? The Navy?"
Upon hearing this, the many naval personnel exchanged bewildered glances, their expressions becoming strangely odd.
That makes a tiny bit of sense!
"Stop talking nonsense. It's an indisputable fact that you broke the law. As for why the World Government and the Navy can sentence you, it's because the World Government is an organization that upholds justice and represents the justice of more than 170 member states of the World Government."
"Are you satisfied with this answer? Then just surrender obediently and stop making pointless resistance!"
Snap snap snap snap...
The applause was crisp and loud. Uchiha Huayue's expression was slightly sarcastic as he deliberately pretended to have just realized something.
"So that's how it is. Behind the World Government World Government are more than 170 member states, hundreds of thousands of naval soldiers, and hundreds of thousands of naval warships..."
"In other words, as long as one is powerful enough, one can claim to be righteous or evil, whether one says so or not, right?"
Upon hearing this, Sengoku's expression subtly changed. While that was the intended meaning, the way he said it had taken on a different tone!
"Since you don't want to surrender, then we have no choice but to take action. All troops, prepare to turn your cannons around!"
With the command flags issuing orders, the metallic muzzles of the cannons turned around, and thousands upon thousands of giant cannons were aimed at the location of Uchiha Huayue.
Beside him, Yamato picked up his spiked club, deep blue ice bands swirling around him, and he had already entered the Okuchi no Makami Form.
"You bunch of bastards! Don't think that just because there are more of you, my brother and I will be afraid of you. My brother alone can take you all down!"
"Huh? How come there are two more kids, hostages?"
The lookout, who was aiming, was at a loss for what to do when he saw this, but a gloomy shout filled with anger pulled him back to reality.
"Keep aiming. Compared to one or two brats, releasing this guy out of the Whole Cake Island would cause unimaginable damage. This is a sacrifice that must be made for justice!"
Sakazuki reprimanded them repeatedly, and although many sailors felt quite conflicted, they still chose to obey the vice admiral's orders and turn their guns around.
On the high seas, massive warships, some tens of meters long, resembled archipelagos with fluttering banners, surrounding everyone. The residents of the Whole Cake Island trapped on the bubbles were terrified, and some even had drops of water seeping from their trouser legs.
"Heavens above, earth below! What sins have we committed that we have just escaped the battlefield of the Four Emperors, only to be surrounded by the Navy's Buster Call and forced to suffer endless torment until we die!"
"God, if this is a nightmare, please wake me up quickly..."
"Damn the navy, is this the justice you speak of? We are just innocent civilians, and you even want to kill us!"
Amidst the Utakata clumps floating on the island, countless civilians and pirates attempting to take advantage of the chaos were arguing and bickering. Sengoku's eyes turned cold, and he immediately shouted.
"Shut up! Those who aid and abet evil have no right to call themselves civilians. How many soldiers in Big Mom's territory exist because of your souls?!"
"And you, Uchiha Huayue, don't say that we Marines are outnumbered. You are someone we have no choice but to bully. Even in the history of the Marines, this is quite rare. Be proud of it, Four Emperors!"
However, to the surprise of many Marines, Uchiha Huayue casually sat down, and countless azure spiritual particles gathered to form a throne of souls.
"How could I blame you? Sengoku, everyone in the Navy, please don't blame me for being despicable. After all, you were the ones who ganged up on us first... Come to think of it, it's been a long time since I've used you all. Let's get some fresh air."
"Hai, Xu, You, Shen, Wei, Immortal Arts - Spirit Summoning Jutsu - Nine Mask Svāhā!"
Bang! Bang! Bang...
In an instant, White Mist swirled, and layers of fog obscured the view of hundreds of naval vessels.
However, the next moment, as the gale tore through the fog, an unprecedented scene unfolded before the eyes of hundreds of thousands of naval officers and soldiers and residents of Whole Cake Island, leaving countless people speechless.
"What is that? What is that?"
"A monster, a black monster? It's almost the size of Giant Race! How could such a monster exist!"
Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Genbu, Jade Maiden, North and South Dipper Sages, Shinigami...
Towering figures, mostly black and white, stood around the fragments of Whole Cake Island.
The next moment, from among countless shadows, one after another, bizarre Menos Grande emerged from the shadows, their mouths accumulating Cero of various colors.
"Fellow Marines, members of the World Government, please don't accuse me of ganging up on you. After all, you are a behemoth that rules over more than 170 countries."
"Nine Mask Svāhā, make your move."
