It was as though something major was about to happen here. If they did not leave now, they would die.
Even Jewelry Bonney broke out in a cold sweat. After giving Moonlight a deep look, she immediately left.
This guy had struck a Celestial Dragon.
This was even more terrifying than the outbreak of Aqua Laguna! "Moonlight, it's over! We're done for!"
Hachi, Camie, and Pappagu began trembling the moment they saw this, looking as though disaster had fallen upon them.
"You hit a Celestial Dragon! They are descendants of the gods!"
"In this world, it has always been the Celestial Dragons trampling others at will. Who would dare strike a Celestial Dragon?"
"A catastrophe is about to befall us!"
The three looked at Moonlight.
Even Robin's expression turned extremely grim.
"Moonlight, we really are in huge trouble!"
Boom!
Just as Robin finished speaking, a tremendous explosion sounded nearby.
They hurriedly looked over and found that it had come from the auction house in the distance, so they immediately rushed over.
But the moment they arrived...
"Gum-Gum..."
An incredibly familiar voice rang out. Then, the building beside the auction hall suddenly collapsed, revealing the scene within. A man wearing an air bubble helmet like the fat middle-aged man from before, dressed in the same attire, with a long handlebar mustache and sunglasses, was sent flying to the ground.
This man was also a Celestial Dragon! And the one who had struck him was Luffy.
Luffy stood there with a stern expression, glaring furiously at the Celestial Dragon lying on the ground.
"What gives people like you the right to call yourselves gods?!"
At Luffy's side stood Zoro, Sanji, Usopp, Chopper, Nami, Brook, Franky, and the others.
Before Luffy stood an old man bound in iron chains. He wore glasses, had long, curly silver hair, and a vertical scar over his right eye. He was none other than Silvers Rayleigh! Luffy had acted for his sake!
Apparently, when Rayleigh was put up for auction as a slave, that Celestial Dragon had immediately stormed onto the stage. He believed an old man like Rayleigh was not qualified to be a slave and did not even deserve to live. He had directly fired at him, intending to strip him of his right to live.
How could Luffy allow that? In a fury, he struck out and sent the Celestial Dragon flying!
Seeing this, Hachi, Camie, and Pappagu were rendered speechless. They looked at Moonlight, then at Luffy.
"The Straw Hat Crew's captain and Vice-Captain..."
"Moonlight! Robin!"
At that moment, Zoro and the others also spotted Moonlight, Robin, and the trio of Hachi, Camie, and Pappagu, and could not help calling out to them.
"Moonlight!"
Luffy looked at Moonlight, his expression solemn.
Moonlight nodded, understanding what Luffy meant, then pointed upward.
Everyone looked up in confusion, only to hear another thunderous crash as a fat middle-aged man smashed through the auction house ceiling and fell down.
Who else could it have been but that Celestial Dragon? Another Celestial Dragon?
He had been sent flying by Moonlight and had now fallen back down! The already stunned crowd around them instantly fell into dead silence.
"People like them do not deserve to be called gods."
Facing Luffy's shocked expression and Zoro and the others' astonished gazes, Moonlight spoke calmly.
Hachi, Camie, and Pappagu hurriedly explained.
After hearing this, everyone was left speechless.
They looked at Moonlight, then at Luffy.
"Since when did those two become the same kind of person?!"
"Bastards! You dared strike Celestial Dragons? Are you looking to die?!"
"You're dead!"
"Kill them! Kill them all!"
At that moment, with two Celestial Dragons having been beaten, the people around them went mad.
Among them, a woman with sunglasses, a scarf covering her face, and long brown hair looked at the two unconscious men before furiously shouting at those around her.
She ordered Luffy and the others executed.
She was also a Celestial Dragon!
Immediately, countless guards charged forward.
"Too noisy."
Moonlight's pupils narrowed.
A surge of blue killing aura suddenly erupted!
Buzz!
Wherever his gaze swept, the woman, the guards, and the panicked people in the auction hall all collapsed, fainting and losing their ability to fight.
In the end, only a handful of people remained in the entire auction house.
"This is...!"
Rayleigh's pupils contracted sharply at the sight.
"So this is Moonlight, the Straw Hat Crew's Vice-Captain!"
At the same time, at the very back of the auction house, a man with spiky red hair, a dagger and pistol hanging from his chest, goggles on his head, and a dark red coat narrowed his eyes sharply, staring fixedly at Moonlight.
Beside him, a man wearing a leopard-spotted winter hat, with stubble on his chin, an embroidered long-sleeved shirt, and light blue pants, likewise narrowed his eyes and fixed his gaze on Moonlight. At the sight, cold sweat broke out across his body. "So he's Moonlight!"
These two were also among the eleven Supernovas.
Eustass Kid and Trafalgar Law.
"I'll remove your collar."
Moonlight looked at Rayleigh, a glint flashing in his eyes.
Luffy had beaten the Celestial Dragon for him.
But as long as the collar around his neck remained, he would never be free from his restraints.
"There's no need. Thank you very much."
However, Rayleigh laughed heartily. The collar around his neck had somehow already come off.
"You...!"
Seeing this, Luffy and the others all looked at the old man. This old man was no ordinary person!
Rayleigh said nothing. He merely looked at the Straw Hat on Luffy's head with a meaningful expression.
"That Straw Hat suits a capable man."
Then he looked at Moonlight.
"So you're Moonlight, the Straw Hat Crew's Vice-Captain? You truly deserve that title!"
Finally, he turned to Hachi and greeted him.
"Hey, Hachi, what are you doing here?"
Hachi was overjoyed to see Rayleigh. "Rayleigh, Shakky said you were here. So you really were here!"
The others had yet to recover from the shock of Rayleigh removing the collar without a scratch. Hearing Hachi's words, they were stunned once more!
This old man was the coating mechanic they had been looking for?
"I never expected to meet such a major figure here!"
Kid and Law both sucked in a sharp breath.
Moonlight's appearance had already surprised them greatly. Now that they had seen Silvers Rayleigh, they were shocked all over again!
Luffy and the others had not recognized him, but they had!
He was a legendary figure. They had never expected to encounter him here! "People inside, you are surrounded! Raise your hands and surrender immediately!"
At that moment, dense footsteps sounded outside, followed by a shout. The Marines had arrived.
"Let's get out of here first."
The instant the Marines appeared, Moonlight and Rayleigh's expressions both changed. Rayleigh glanced at Moonlight before taking the lead in walking out.
"Thanks for what you did earlier. Leave this to me now."
"The Marines?"
"Perfect timing!"
Luffy and the others had also noticed the commotion outside. They immediately became eager to fight, while Kid and Law also walked out. Outside, they saw that a large force of Marines had already surrounded the place, led by a Vice Admiral.
The Marines had arrived in force to arrest Luffy and the others.
Buzz!
Rayleigh stepped out, his gaze sweeping across them! An invisible wave instantly surged through the air. Wherever it passed, whether Vice Admiral or Marine, they all fainted and collapsed, losing their ability to fight.
In just a few seconds, every Marine outside had been dealt with!
"The same power as Moonlight!"
Usopp immediately cried out at the sight.
