Based on Vic's understanding of the world, without external intervention, those Revolutionary Army who invaded Mary Geoise would definitely have been wiped out. So, without knowing the future, Vic decided to go to Mary Geoise himself!
Even if Vic doesn't need to intervene in this major event, he can still assess Mary Geoise's strength and weaknesses. If he is needed, then there's no need to worry about him intervening. The Revolutionary Army cannot afford to be harmed right now. With his God Realm strength, even if he can't save anyone, he can still create a diversion and buy Sabo and the others a chance to escape!
More importantly, he wanted to test the strength of the Celestial Dragons ' God Realm experts, so he could know his enemy and himself. Since Vic broke through to the God Realm, he had never fought at full strength. Perhaps this was an opportunity!
Even if they encounter Imwick, they are not afraid. Can Imwick, no matter how strong, surpass the realm of gods? Judging from Vik's experience after fully mastering the laws of lightning, there are no realms ahead of him.
God Realm expert is the strongest individual who stands alone. They can fight using the Power of Law even in the desolate universe, because at this level, they no longer need to borrow external power from heaven and earth!
The difference between the God Realm and those below the God Realm is like using something you own versus using something you borrow. What you own is yours no matter when or where, and you can use it freely.
But borrowed things are different; they are never truly yours and can be taken back at any time. This is like the relationship between the inner universe of the body and the external universe.
One relies on its inner universe, where its power originates from itself; the other depends on its outer universe, where all its abilities are borrowed from the outside world. Once the outside world is isolated or destroyed, its power instantly vanishes into nothingness!
"Take me there, and then you can leave this place."
"Yes!"
Seeing that fighting had broken out in Mary Geoise, Vic decided not to wait any longer and went straight to the scene.
Ban found a mirror in the bedroom, touched it, and it connected to the room. Vic stepped out and passed through the mirror into the room. That's how convenient spatial abilities are; they're much faster than his lightning travel speed.
"Did they all run away?"
Vic glanced around the room and saw that it was the residence of a pampered Celestial Dragons, and a female Celestial Dragons at that. With a great battle raging outside, there were hardly any people left in the house.
Vic strolled out of the big house without encountering a single Celestial Dragons. Instead, he saw several abandoned slaves, each with a chain collar around their neck, the other end of which was locked to some immovable object. The slaves, both men and women, were all injured, and their eyes were numb as if they were mentally impaired!
"As expected, they no longer consider themselves among our own. They've become so used to being superior that they deserve to be enemies with the whole world!"
Slaves are treated worse than pets. What kind of mentality allows someone to face this so calmly? No wonder Shanks didn't choose to become Celestial Dragons again. Seeing such a scene, he would probably hate being a descendant of Celestial Dragons!
Vic examined the slaves' memories and saw too many unbearable scenes. The Celestial Dragons didn't treat them as human beings at all; they truly believed they were high and mighty gods. In their eyes, slaves were not even as good as pets!
The instinct to kill one's own kind has existed since ancient times. Not only humans, but most living things have this instinct. Animals will fight for mates and territory, and plants will compete for nutrients and sunlight in the soil, inhibiting the growth of surrounding plants. But slavery seems to be something only the human race possesses!
However, with the progress of civilization, the slave group has basically disappeared. It is a consensus that slaves should not exist. But in this relatively civilized pirate world, a primal slave system has appeared, which is somewhat contrary to the laws of social development!
There must be a powerful force supporting this system, and that powerful force comes from the Celestial Dragons!
In reality, the Celestial Dragons don't need slaves at all. If they want manpower, they can simply hire people by spending money. There are plenty of ordinary people who want to make money. With money, what kind of people can't they find? And it's all consensual!
However, in order to demonstrate their supreme authority and their status above all living beings, the Celestial Dragons insisted on creating a system of slavery. As a result, generation after generation, most of the Celestial Dragons became utterly useless!
Because slaves were their private property, they could do whatever they wanted with them. No one would hold them accountable if they were killed. This amplified their desires, and over time, their greed became insatiable. All sorts of perverse thoughts popped into their minds, and they became increasingly perverse, even worse than beasts!
The thoughts on slavery and power made Vic wary. After overthrowing the Celestial Dragons and the World Government, a privileged class must not emerge. Otherwise, the emergence of another Celestial Dragons wouldn't be far off, and wouldn't the overthrow of the Celestial Dragons have been in vain?
Do you want to leave here?
Instead of directly destroying the collars around the slaves' necks, Vic asked them questions, but the slaves acted as if they hadn't heard him at all, not even blinking!
"Understood! Then I'll free you! I'll kill a few Celestial Dragons later to vent your anger."
Vic didn't intend to force them; even if he wanted to, there was no way to. These people were still alive, but their hearts were dead. Even if he forcibly took them away, it wouldn't make much sense!
However, when they heard that Vic was going to kill the Celestial Dragons, a glimmer of light finally appeared in their eyes, but it was short-lived and quickly disappeared. Vic simply used an illusion to give them a true peaceful death!
After leaving the Celestial Dragons's residence, Vic unleashed his powerful Observation Haki to sense the auras within Mary Geoise, then headed towards the area with the strongest auras. He ignored the Celestial Dragons he encountered along the way, simply using illusions to conceal his presence.
When Mary Geoise was attacked by the Revolutionary Army, the Celestial Dragons had countermeasures in place. Most of the Celestial Dragons had already gone to temporary shelters, while only a small number remained in various places for one reason or another.
Among them were several people who, despite being ordinary mortals, were giving orders to Admirals Fujitora and Green Bull on the spot, essentially acting as on-site commanders, unafraid that the Revolutionary Army commander on the other side would send them to their deaths with a large sinus.
Because the Revolutionary Army chose a rather unusual time, many kings and their relatives from the fifty Affiliated Nation remained there.
For example, Cobra and Vivi from Alabasta; Wapol and his queen; Sabo's brother, the king, scheming to become Celestial Dragons; and so on...
There were too many outsiders in Mary Geoise. For some reason, the Five Elders and the Holy Knights did not confront the Revolutionary Army Commander. Instead, they handed the battle over to the two Marine Admiral, which gave Sabo and his group room to maneuver. Otherwise, they would have been doomed!
"Although we can't completely break off relations now, we can still collect some interest. These few deserve to die the most; their aura is so evil it makes me nauseous. They are absolutely beasts among beasts, and they deserve to die!"
Vic arrived silently at the Celestial Dragons ' sanctuary in Mary Geoise, where all sorts of strange Celestial Dragons had gathered—men, women, the old, and the young.
Celestial Dragons, being people with such high self-esteem, would not easily have offspring with ordinary people, even if the ordinary person was extremely handsome. In their eyes, ordinary people were not worthy of bearing their offspring, and even if they did have offspring, they would not enjoy the treatment of pure-blooded Celestial Dragons!
They look down on ordinary humans to the core, and most likely, after they get tired of them, they will exile them to the lower realm to fend for themselves like Ginny and Bonney. Therefore, those who can come to the refuge are all pure-blooded Celestial Dragons, that is, the products of inbreeding, so it is conceivable that they are all ugly and deformed!
The aura of several middle-aged Celestial Dragons made Vic feel nauseous. They had done far too many perverted things, and that disgusting aura was deeply etched into their souls!
Vic only needed to sense it slightly to be able to vaguely perceive the grotesque images that flashed into his mind. These were beyond scum and beasts; they were demons among men. Vic could no longer tolerate it. These Celestial Dragons must die today! Vic declared!
