"Asshole..."
Akainu gritted his teeth.
"Damn Roy, he's manipulating the battlefield!"
The third fragment also flew towards the Golden Lion amidst the chaos.
The Golden Lion had barely been in his hands, and before he could even feel happy, he sensed something was wrong.
These fragments... came too easily.
He looked up at Roy, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes.
Roy smiled slightly at him, his expression as if to say: You're welcome.
The Golden Lion's expression shifted between light and dark.
Damn it, this kid used us as pawns.
But looking down at the Pure Gold fragments in his hand, he couldn't bear to throw them away.
Oh well, whatever, once I get it, it's mine.
Fragment allocation complete.
One piece for Whitebeard, one piece for Golden Lion, one piece for Big Mom.
The Navy has two pieces—one from Sengoku, and one from Saint Garling.
As for the smaller pirates, they didn't get a single thing, and many of them died.
The battlefield gradually quieted down.
The three forces retreated, each eyeing the other with predatory intent.
The navy's encirclement was still in place, but now it seemed more like a joke.
Sengoku took a deep breath, reverting from his Buddha Form to human form, his face so gloomy it could drip water.
He looked at the Whitebeard, the Golden Lion, and Big Mom, then at the golden ship in the distance, feeling incredibly frustrated.
The original plan was to divide the pirates and concentrate their forces to wipe out the Roy Pirates.
And the result?
Because of Roy's meddling, Pure Gold fragments were flying everywhere. Instead of splitting up, the pirates turned their attention to the Navy.
Now, with each of the three Emperors possessing a fragment, the Navy has become the target of everyone's anger.
How can we fight this battle?
Just then, Saint Garling, accompanied by three members of the Holy Knights, arrived beside Sengoku.
" Sengoku "
"Give me the Pure Gold fragments."
This must be brought back to Mary Geoise; it cannot fall into the hands of pirates.
Sengoku frowned, but before he could speak, Garp spoke first.
"Hey, isn't this the commander of the Holy Knights who was beaten up like a stray dog just now?"
Saint Garling's expression changed. " Garp! What do you mean?!"
Garp munched on a senbei and said slowly:
It doesn't mean anything.
"I just feel that some people were so determined to get their hands on Pure Gold before, but what happened?"
Nine people ganged up on one, but they were beaten to a pulp.
Now you've come back and shamelessly order the navy around?
Tsk tsk tsk.
Saint Garling's face turned green after hearing this. " Garp! You—"
What about me?
Garp interrupted him.
Am I wrong?
Aren't you, the Holy Knights, the Celestial Dragons' strongest secret force?
That's it?
Saint Garling was trembling with rage, pointing at Garp: "You... you will pay for what you said today!"
Garp rolled his eyes. "Alright, alright, stop spouting threats. Get your men out of here and stop getting in the way."
Saint Garling took a deep breath, suppressing his murderous urge, and looked at Sengoku.
After a few seconds of silence, Sengoku took out the Pure Gold fragment from his pocket and handed it to him.
"Take it away."
Saint Garling took the fragment and gave Garp a cold look.
" Garp, I will report today's events to the Five Elders truthfully."
Garp waved his hand dismissively, as if shooing away a fly. "Go on, go on, hurry up."
Saint Garling gritted his teeth, turned around, and left.
Three members of the Holy Knights followed closely behind.
Garp only snorted after they had gone far away.
"What kind of trash dares to act tough in front of me?"
Sengoku sighed, " Garp, that mouth of yours..."
Garp chuckled:
"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
"Those guys, who usually swagger around Mary Geoise, got beaten to a pulp by that kid Roy today. They deserved it."
Sengoku shook his head and said nothing more.
He looked at the golden ship in the distance, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.
Roy...
That kid, that was a really brilliant move today.
In the distance, on the Ark Maxim.
Roy watched as Saint Garling led three members of the Holy Knights away, a faint smile playing on his lips.
Gone?
That's fine.
That way, I won't have to spend time dealing with them later.
Roy turned his head and looked towards the center of the battlefield.
Whitebeard, Golden Lion, and Big Mom—the three emperors each occupied a territory, with their own forces standing behind them.
On the Navy side, Sengoku, Garp, the Three Admirals, and the Vice Admiral are regrouping.
The ice surface was littered with corpses and bloodstains.
Those smaller pirates either died or fled, and the rest dared not approach any further, hiding far behind to watch the spectacle.
Roy withdrew his gaze and looked at the person beside him.
Bullet, Hawk Eyes, Red Count, Crocodile, Tesoro, Savi, Enel, Yamato, Pea... everyone is there.
Kaido, along with his Beasts Pirates, stood on the other side.
" Roy," Kaido began, "What's next?"
Roy looked at him and smiled slightly, " Kaido, what do you think?"
Kaido grinned, revealing a mouthful of fangs:
"Of course I'll keep fighting! Those navy guys, weren't they pretty arrogant just now?"
Let them see what real power is!
Roy nodded. "Then let's fight."
He raised his hand and activated his Telekinesis.
The Ark Maxim slowly rose into the air and hovered in mid-air.
"Everyone, listen to my command."
Roy's voice reached everyone's ears.
"Attack the navy with all our might."
"Before we withdraw, we must make the World Government and navy that provoked this incident feel the pinch."
Upon hearing this, a hint of excitement flashed in everyone's eyes.
Bullet clenched his fists, making a loud thud. "I've been waiting for this for ages!"
Hawk Eyes drew his Black Blade Yoru, its blade gleaming coldly in the sunlight.
The Red Count spread his blood-red bat wings and smiled slightly, "Interesting."
Crocodile, cigar in mouth, exhaled a smoke ring. "Those guys, they deserve to pay."
Lightning crackled around Tesoro, and his green hair danced in the wind.
Enel also flashed with lightning. He exchanged a glance with Tesoro, and the two of them smiled simultaneously.
" Enel, cooperate?" Tesoro asked.
Enel nodded, spread his arms, and began to create a large-scale Thundercloud above his head.
Dark clouds quickly gathered, blotting out the sun, and lightning flashed through the clouds with a deafening roar.
Tesoro leaped into the air and plunged into the Thundercloud.
With the Thundercloud created by Enel, his strength could be unleashed to its fullest potential.
Kaido, leading the Beasts Pirates, launched the first attack!
He transformed into a blue dragon, spiraling down, his enormous body blotting out the sky!
Ember unfurled his black wings, and his longsword burst into flames, following closely behind!
Queen's obese body was as agile as a monkey, firing as he ran!
Jack transforms into a mammoth, galloping wildly across the ice, each step causing the ice to tremble!
Black Maria, Ulti, Page One, and others followed suit!
Bullet, Red Count, Hawk Eyes, and others also made their move!
Bullet transformed into his White Tiger Model, his massive body resembling a small mountain, and pounced on the naval forces!
With a single sweep of its claws, more than a dozen naval soldiers were sent flying, crashing down on a group of them!
