The New World.
The Dressrosa Kingdom.
The King Riku family looked extremely grim as they stared at the newspapers that the News Coo had just dropped.
"Father! What should we do?" Princess Viola ( Violet ) asked anxiously, "I've seen Marine Admiral Kuzan freeze the sea near G1. It seems it's true."
Kyros clenched his fist. "Damn it! The World Government is disregarding all the Affiliated Nation of the New World!"
"Father, there's something I'm hesitant to say," said Princess Scarlet, who had already retired from royalty, hesitating to speak.
King Riku looked at his eldest daughter and said with a wry smile, " Scarlet, what can't be said now?"
Scarlet took a deep breath and then slowly said, "Father, sister, let's give up our royal status!"
"Nani?" King Riku was startled by his eldest daughter's words.
Viola, the future heir to the throne, seemed to be deep in thought; she had probably already guessed what her sister was thinking.
Viola gently drew back the curtains, gazing at the panicked citizens of the city. A decision seemed to form in her heart. "Father, I agree to my sister's proposal to relinquish our royal status in the Dressrosa Kingdom."
King Riku wasn't reluctant to give up the throne, but rather he didn't understand the purpose of relinquishing his royal status: "How would that help with the current disaster?"
Scarlet explained her reasoning, "Father, contact the Liberator Organization! Handing over the Dressrosa Kingdom to them is the only way to save all our people."
King Riku slumped dejectedly into his chair. After a moment, he nodded. "I agree. I'm willing to relinquish my royal status if it can save everyone in the Dressrosa Kingdom. Kyros, you must immediately lead the royal army to pacify all the people."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Kyros's admiration for King Riku deepened.
Scarlet turned to her sister. " Viola, you should have Big News Morgans 'Morgans phone number, right?"
Viola: "I know. I'll contact them immediately and have them convey Father's thoughts to the Liberator Organization."
At that very moment.
King Riku's Den Den Mushi rang.
He picked it up and saw it was from his friend, King Elizabello II (the current King of the Prodence Kingdom, who possesses the family's secret technique, " The King Punch "). King Riku quickly answered the phone:
" Eli, it's been so long since you've been to Dressrosa."
" Doldo ( King Riku's name), you must have seen the newspaper just now, right?"
"Yes, I've seen it. Viola also saw Marine Admiral Kuzan constantly creating ice cities near G1. It seems the contents of the newspapers can be basically confirmed."
"I see... What are your plans?"
"I intend to relinquish my royal status and allow the Liberator Organization take over Dressrosa."
"Give up your royal status?" Elizabello II, sitting opposite him, remained silent for a moment, then said with a hint of helplessness:
"This is indeed a difficult choice. In that case, please also tell the Liberator Organization that I am willing to give up my royal status and hand over the title of King of Prodins to them, as long as they guarantee the safety of my family."
Are you sure?
"Hahaha, Doldo, do we even have a choice now?" Elizabello II's words were filled with disappointment and anger towards the World Government.
These Affiliated Nation of the New World suddenly became outcasts.
Several years ago, a group of tyrannical kings and nobles had already purchased properties and businesses in the Paradise, gradually transferring the kingdom's assets Paradise. Clearly, they were ready to make arrangements for the Paradise at any time.
Kings like King Riku and King Elizabello II were unwilling to relinquish their kingdoms or their subjects, thus restricting their freedom of movement.
The underwater cavity beneath the Red Line.
Fish-Man Island, Ryugu Kingdom.
King Neptune, Queen Otohime, and their three princes.
Jinbe, captain of the Sun Pirates and one of the Shichibukai of the Knight of the Sea.
Left Minister, Right Minister, and others.
The group's expressions were very grave as they looked at the intelligence handed over by the Whitebeard Pirates.
Neptune, clutching the intelligence report in his hand, asked, " Jinbe, is the situation at sea really that dire?"
Jinbe nodded. "Even the Pops didn't expect that Shiki's Sky Empire was actually a spy for the Liberator Organization. Now the strength of the Liberator Organization and the World Government has become very close, at least on the surface. As for whether either side has hidden strength, I think they probably do."
The Left Minister's eyes widened. " Jinbe, isn't the Liberator Organization's current strength its full potential?"
Jinbe nodded. "Yes, this organization has been hiding in the shadows. Judging from the fact that they emptied most of the South Blue, they definitely have a lot of hidden power."
"Hiss..." Everyone gasped.
At the same time, I felt a chill run down my spine.
Forcing himself to calm the trembling in his heart, Neptune continued, "Now that the New World is facing destruction, the Liberator Organization must be in a panic. Should we send someone to help the Whitebeard Pirates?"
Jinbe shook his head. " Pops said we don't need to help."
Neptune frowned and asked, " Jinbe, who do you think will win World Government or the Liberator Organization?"
"This..." Jinbe couldn't tell either. He shook his head. "To be honest, I don't know either. Both sides have hidden cards they haven't used yet. It's probably hard to say until the very last moment."
"Where should the Fish-Man Race go from here..." Neptune sighed.
"My lord, don't worry, we're at the bottom of the sea, so there shouldn't be too much danger for now," Otohime quickly reassured her.
However, Jinbe secretly sighed in his Jinbe, thinking that Queen Otohime was too naive.
The clash between the World Government and the Liberator Organization is already so intense, and the conflict will only intensify in the future, eventually forcing the Fish-Man Race to choose sides.
Both the World Government and the Liberator Organization have a plethora of ways to combat the Fish-Man Race of the deep sea.
Maintaining neutrality in such a world war is extremely difficult.
Neptune, however, secretly thought that if Shirahoshi could control the hidden power within her, she might be able to contend with the World Government and the Liberator Organization, or at least make both sides hesitant to act against her.
It's a pity that Shirahoshi is too young, and her personality is also a big problem.
'Time is running out. The appointed day hasn't arrived yet, but a great war has broken out ahead of schedule, and Joy Boy's successor is nowhere to be found. Can the Fish-Man Race truly live under the sun?'
Neptune was lost in thought.
Queen Otohime sensed her husband's deep sorrow through her Observation Haki, but she was powerless to change anything.
Suddenly Neptune stood up. " Jinbe, no matter what the future holds, the Fish-Man Race need strength to protect themselves. Immediately recruit 50,000 soldiers from Fish-Man District."
"What? This quantity..." Jinbe's expression changed.
" Jinbe, we can't rely on Whitebeard's protection forever. He'll grow old and die someday, and the world situation is extremely tense right now. Rather than letting Fish-Man District become a destabilizing factor, we should incorporate them into the King's Army."
Upon hearing this, Jinbe understood Neptune's thoughts and nodded, "I will certainly do my best."
Please.
