It wasn't that Zesi held back.
It's not that the Thirty-Six Divine Space Strike attacks are weak.
The Momonga and the others were able to survive.
First, there was the all-out resistance from those Vice Admiral.
Despite the powerful attacks of so many Vice Admiral, much of the power of the Thirty-Six Divine Space Strike was still deflected.
However, the main reason is because Zesi initially buried the vibration source orb in the island.
After this powerful vibrating orb was buried in the ground, the island's interior was severely cracked.
The island was sunk by the Thirty-Six Divine Space Strike.
Without ground support, the power of the Divine Space Strike was greatly dispersed.
Most of Sakazuki and his men were also thrown into the sea.
They were later retrieved from the water.
The vast ocean further diminished the power of the divine sky.
That's why so many Vice Admiral survived in the 70s and 80s.
"The most important thing right now is to bring Sakazuki and the others back. If the other pirates find out about their situation, it'll be troublesome," Tsuru reminded them.
" Garp, go to the New World and bring Sakazuki and the others back immediately. Absolutely nothing can be done to them," Sakazuki Sengoku.
"Okay, I'm off to the New World right now!" Garp said.
With that, Garp walked out of the office.
"The problem now is the negotiations. If the negotiations continue without a resolution, and the Azure Emperor arrives in Mary Geoise, the situation will deteriorate further, and there's even a possibility that war will break out directly in Mary Geoise," Crane said.
"Damn it, I really want to start a war with the Azure Emperor right now!" Sengoku said.
"If war breaks out now, the chances of the navy being defeated are very high, and we are not ready!" Tsuru said.
"I know, now we can only ask the Five Elders to make a decision quickly. If they don't want war, they should finalize the negotiations as soon as possible. Fortunately, the general negotiations have been completed, and the rest are just minor issues!"
"I'll go see the Five Elders right away!" Sengoku said, without even needing Sengoku to come and see them.
The Five Elders learned of the sinking of the Marine G-1 Branch and the entire Marine Base immediately.
They even understood it better than people from the Sengoku.
Sengoku arrived in a hurry, and the Five Elders immediately knew the purpose of Sengoku visit.
"We have already instructed our men to sign the treaty as soon as possible, and Shanks will be able to take it back with him shortly."
"I never expected the Azure Emperor to react so strongly to such a small probing attack!"
"But hasn't the navy been getting a bit too temperamental lately?"
"Without our orders, without the permission of the Marine Headquarters, when did a few Marine Vice Admiral become qualified to decide to wage war against a great pirate like the Azure Emperor?"
The Five Elders said.
After understanding the whole story.
The Five Elders believed that Sakazuki and others bore a great deal of responsibility for how things had escalated to this point, resulting in heavy losses for the Navy.
If they hadn't provoked the Azure Emperor, war wouldn't have broken out, and the G-1 Branch wouldn't have been sunk.
" Sakazuki and the others are indeed a bit impatient, but I hope the five of you can understand them. After all, it's understandable that a Marine would be angry to be threatened by pirates like this, especially since their strength has improved a lot recently and they are now comparable to Admiral!" Sengoku said.
"Are the Azure Emperor just ordinary pirates? Can they start a war whenever they want? Don't they think about the consequences of their actions?"
"I've heard about their increased strength, but since we can't defeat the Azure Emperor, we should remain humble."
"After this, we cannot allow them to go to the New World again; let them remain stationed in the Four Blues for now."
"Our relationship with the Azure Emperor Pirates will likely remain for a long time. Until we can eliminate the Azure Emperor Pirates, we need to protect our base."
Our core base is the Four Blues.
"Let the Azure Emperor Pirates handle the New World!"
"I think the Azure Emperor Pirates have ambitions to unify the New World. If they want to unify the New World, they will inevitably have to go to war with the other Four Emperors of the New World. At that time, the Four Emperors of the New World will definitely have a battle."
"We just need to accumulate strength while watching the show from the sidelines, and then deliver a heavy blow to the Azure Emperor when the opportunity arises..."
" The New World only needs to retain a certain amount of power to protect the World Government's Affiliated Nation from attacks by ordinary pirates!"
"Have you heard? The Navy's G-1 Branch has been sunk!"
"How is that possible? Last time, even when the Big Mom Pirates and the Beasts Pirates joined forces, they still couldn't defeat the Navy's G-1 Branch!"
"Exactly, the G-1 Branch now concentrates most of the Navy's forces; it's not something that can be wiped out easily."
"It's true. The entire G-1 Branch, along with the island, was sunk. It was the Azure Emperor himself who did it!"
" Azure Emperor, no wonder. If he were to make a move, he could indeed sink the Marine G-1 Branch!"
" The Azure Emperor has attacked the Navy's G-1 Branch. Does this mean the Azure Emperor Pirates are going to war with the Navy?" "No way! If the Navy and the Azure Emperor Pirates go to war, the world will really be in chaos!" The news that the Marine G-1 Branch had been sunk spread quickly.
The whole New World was in an uproar.
Such a big thing cannot be kept secret by anyone.
Moreover, the entire island and the entire base were destroyed; everyone knows that something major has happened.
Knowing that it was the Azure Emperor who destroyed the Navy branch, the people of the New World couldn't help but feel apprehensive.
One side is the navy, backed by the World Government.
On one side is the World's Strongest pirate crew, and on the other is the Azure Emperor Pirates, led by the World's Strongest Person Azure Emperor, the Azure Emperor.
If the two sides go to war, the entire New World will be thrown into chaos.
Many people, places, and individuals will be affected.
The nations, especially those within the Azure Dragon Territory, were gripped by fear and unease.
Just then, news spread that the Azure Emperor Pirates and the World Government had signed the Azure Dragon Pass Treaty.
The World Government recognizes that Azure Dragon Pass belongs to the Azure Emperor Pirates.
They also agreed to allow the Azure Emperor Pirates to send a squad to garrison this area.
The Azure Emperor Pirates are required to pay 10% of their value in customs duties to the World Government annually...
