While the battle raged fiercely at Marine Headquarters, the Holy Land Mary Geoise, the stronghold of the World Government, descended into chaos.
A Heavenly Flames spread rapidly, and all those touched by it seemed to be subjected to terrible torture, collapsing to the ground, howling and struggling. Only a very few people were spared from the Heavenly Flames's effects.
"What's going on? What are these flames?"
The Five Elders, having withdrawn from the Holy Land Mary Geoise, watched in shock and fury as Holy Land Mary Geoise gradually succumbed to disaster. The rage in their hearts surged like the sea of fire before them.
They were truly enraged this time; even the incident when Fisher Tiger rioted after freeing the slaves had not made them this angry.
The Fisher incident last time seemed big, but it didn't actually cause any damage to the Holy Land Mary Geoise.
The place where slaves were imprisoned was outside the Holy Land. Fisher had only released the slaves and didn't dare to cause trouble in the Holy Land, so they didn't pay much attention to him.
This time was different; clearly, someone had truly invaded the Holy Land Mary Geoise and unleashed that eerie flame.
The Five Elders were horrified as they stared at the Heavenly Flames.
The Heavenly Flames gave them an extremely malevolent feeling, and a great terror as if they were facing death head-on.
They knew very well that even with their strength, just a Sisi of that flame would be enough to kill them.
For example, there are still many powerful CP members in the Holy Land who did not escape in time, including some who can rival the Marine Admiral. However, anyone who is touched by that crimson flame will fall to the ground and wail.
Even a powerful figure with the strength of Admiral couldn't help but scream in agony, which shows just how intense the pain was.
"Its name is Red Lotus Karmic Fire, a Hell bestowed upon us by our god to burn away sins!"
A voice came from behind the Five Elders, startling them. They quickly turned around and looked warily at the figure that had appeared behind them at some unknown time.
He was a man clad in magnificent armor, tall and handsome, whose presence made one feel inferior; he was a flawless being.
"Who are you? Who is this so-called god you speak of? Why are you attacking us?"
The leading Five Elders questioned him sternly, while the other Five Elders were equally furious.
This fire has essentially destroyed the entire Holy Land Mary Geoise, and their World Government will lose all its prestige and suffer a severe blow.
This state is far from enough to suppress the ambitious forces in the sea. It's easy to imagine that the sea will go berserk, and it will be questionable whether their World Government can even survive.
After all, this period is far too critical. Lord Imu's affairs are at a crucial moment, and he cannot leave. If their World Government is destroyed, it will truly be the end.
If it weren't for the terrifying Red Lotus Karmic Fire displayed by the other party, which made them wary, they wouldn't have wasted any time and would have already attacked.
The Five Elders ' attitude stirred something in the handsome man opposite him, and he began to have some guesses.
That's right, the handsome man in the magnificent armor is Wang Hao, and he is Wang Hao in his true form.
Two years ago, he obtained a Clone-Clone Fruit that allowed the user to create a clone. After a period of research, he mastered this clone ability.
The one at Marine Headquarters was his clone, while his true self came to the Holy Land Mary Geoise, firstly to exterminate the most sinful Celestial Dragons and complete the side quest for Snake Princess Hancock, and secondly to test the original Imu.
Let's assess the opponent's strength and condition.
However, the Five Elders ' attitude now made him guess some things. It was clear that the Five Elders lacked confidence, partly because they were wary of his strength, and partly because of their own problems.
It's highly likely that Imu, who is hiding behind the scenes of the World Government, is either absent or unable to act for some reason.
"Now I can really let loose and cause a huge ruckus!"
With his eyes slightly narrowed, Wang Hao adopted an arrogant expression and began to boast, "My Deathmask, from Athens... well, I misspoke. I am now the Cancer Gold Saints under the command of the Galactic River God. I have been sent to this planet by my god to capture the wicked thief who stole my god's treasure!"
Wang Hao, who almost let slip, quickly corrected himself. Since he was going to complete the side quest, he would naturally have to do it in the name of the River God.
Fortunately, in the later part of the movie "100,000 Cold Jokes," that effeminate River God did indeed use the characteristics of the Milky Way to create two knock-off Athena's Legion and warships.
This is a good opportunity to borrow this concept and use it to fool these natives.
" The Galactic River God?"
" Cancer Gold Saints?"
"Extremely wicked?"
The Five Elders looked at each other, genuinely taken aback by such lofty and grandiose words.
You mean planets? Are you from outer space?
The Five Elders quickly realized that Wang Hao was not from their planet, but from outer space, and apparently from a powerful force.
"You just mentioned Athens. Were you not originally under the command of that Galactic River God?"
One of the Five Elders grasped a key point in Wang Hao's words. He had clearly heard that the other party wanted to say another title, but suddenly changed his mind.
"Indeed, our Twelve Gold Saints Sanctuary originally the guardian warriors of the goddess Athena. However, Athena recently married the River God, and we Twelve Gold Saints became part of her dowry, now serving under the Galactic River God."
Wang Hao continued his charade with a straight face.
This isn't just random speculation. In the movie "100,000 Cold Jokes," the effeminate River God does indeed have an ambiguous relationship with the goddess Athena, and they might very well end up together in the future.
Although it was just a fictional movie, it still shows that he wasn't just randomly fooling people.
"Even goddesses get married?"
The Five Elders were once again completely dumbfounded, truly never expecting that even gods existing in the universe would have the concept of marriage.
"Why can't a goddess get married? As long as she finds the right man, she can naturally marry him."
With his arms crossed, Wang Hao seemed to be in a good mood as he offered this explanation.
"Why are you unleashing the Red Lotus Karmic Fire here? We have no idea who this so-called thief is, nor do we possess any of your lost treasures."
Realizing that the armored man before them might be of extraordinary status and strength, the Five Elders became more cautious. At the same time, they pondered the words the man had just spoken and began to have some thoughts about the lost treasure of the god he mentioned.
However, there was more of a sense of apprehension than anything else. The armored man opposite him was already incredibly powerful, and from his words, it could be deduced that there were a total of twelve such individuals within the opposing force.
That's really scary!
"A thousand years ago, I divined that the most wicked person was hiding on this planet and that his landing point was right here. I traversed the Void for over a thousand years in pursuit and finally arrived here as well."
As for the blooming of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, it was not my intention. It was because the Karmic Cause and Effect here were too strong, making this place an extremely evil place, that the Karmic Fire Core Flame within me spontaneously transformed into the Red Lotus Karmic Fire.
Wang Hao put on an innocent expression and casually made up a story. As for the Karmic Fire, it was naturally a knock-off he made in this world.
In the Naruto World, he once created a replica of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire. Although it was not as good as the Red Lotus Karmic Fire from the Primordial World, it was still enough to ignite Karma and form Karmic Fire.
Karmic Fire is extremely terrifying. Anyone with Karma who gets tainted by it will suffer greatly, even if they survive, like Daluo Golden Immortal.
Although his knock-off version wasn't very powerful, it wasn't weak either.
It just so happens that most of the Celestial Dragons on the Holy Land Mary Geoise are deeply sinful and have a lot of Karma, so this can be considered a kind of judgment.
Although he is not some saintly saint, he would not indiscriminately kill innocent people, such as newborn babies. Even if the other party is Celestial Dragons, he would not kill them. This is his bottom line.
He won't make a move until the other party does something wrong or becomes an enemy.
So he specially copied this Karmic Fire, and the effect was quite good, saving him a lot of effort.
Otherwise, it would be too much trouble for his true form to go and wreak havoc in the Holy Land Mary Geoise, cutting them down one by one, and it would also damage his current majestic divine image.
After this baptism of Karmic Fire, he noticed that he had gained more than 30 million Fortune Points, which was quite a windfall!
The Five Elders were clearly angered by Wang Hao's innocent explanation, but there was nothing they could do.
There was no way around it; the opponent was simply too strong, an absolute super-powerful being who had transcended that level. Just standing there gave them a terrifying feeling of facing death, not to mention that the opponent also controlled that terrifying Red Lotus Karmic Fire.
With Lord Imu unable to intervene, they had no choice but to grit their teeth and back down; otherwise, going into battle would only be a pointless death.
"My appearance this time is just to give you a heads-up. The other Gold Saints will also be arriving on this planet soon. Since you are the supreme rulers of this planet, you should order your subordinates to be more discreet. After all, the other Saint are not as easy to talk to as I am."
After confirming that the so-called Imu himself was the problem, Wang Hao didn't want to stay any longer. Otherwise, it would be bad if he really provoked Imu to come out, as he wasn't very confident that he could deal with him.
After saying that, Wang Hao transformed into Daoliu and shot into the sky, instantly reaching the outside of the planet's atmosphere.
This ability to transform into a streak of light is naturally a means of traveling developed from studying and deducing Kizaru's Glint-Glint Fruit ability. Although the speed does not reach the speed of light, it is still thousands of times the speed of sound.
No?
Once outside the atmosphere, Wang Hao scanned his surroundings with his powerful eyesight, but found nothing.
In the Pirate King anime, there are still many plot holes left unresolved before he travels through time, such as what exactly is Uranus, one of the three kings controlled by the Celestial Dragons.
Around this powerful weapon called Uranus, many One Piece fans have exchanged and speculated, coming up with many possibilities. Among them, the most widely accepted theory is that Uranus is a satellite with a Tianji System.
It was because of this idea that he took the opportunity to go outside the planet and take a look.
But he was clearly overthinking it. The surrounding area was completely empty, without even a meteorite, let alone any Uranus satellite.
What exactly is the Uranus?
Wang Hao frowned, pondering the ancient weapon, the Uranus.
The Uranus are the Celestial Dragons' greatest trump card and the foundation upon which they rule the world.
To deal with the World Government, they must understand the strongest Ancient Weapon, Uranus; otherwise, they will be in a very passive position.
Unfortunately, it seems that the Five Elders were protected by Imu's protective barrier, and his Observation Haki could not penetrate them to investigate. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so troublesome; he could have just asked the Five Elders directly.
"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. The twelve Saint and that so-called divine treasure that I conned out will keep the Five Elders and that so-called Imu suspicious for a while busy."
He lied like that partly to test them, and partly to give the World Government and that Imu something to do so that it wouldn't interfere with his future plans.
