"Qing, Azure Emperor!"
How did he end up here?!
"This is the Emperor of the Sea, the Emperor of the Azure Empire Federation. How could such a great figure appear here?"
"Wasn't the Azure Empire Federation just established? Shouldn't the Azure Emperor be guarding the Azure Empire? How come he's here at such a crucial moment?"
"And it seems like they're going to support Tom?"
Upon seeing the newcomer, the surrounding crowd erupted in an uproar.
They stared at the newcomer in terror.
The person who appeared was Zesi.
Beside him was a huge figure, which was a bear.
The Azure Empire Federation is currently busy selecting a consort.
Zesi's feelings were also complicated.
I felt a mix of anticipation, nervousness, and fear.
It's absolutely unimaginable that Zesi, who never showed the slightest nervousness even when facing the entire World Government Navy, would become flustered and nervous because of the selection of a bride.
Distracted, Zesi simply stopped caring and began planning the development of the Azure Empire.
When planning the development of the Azure Empire, Zesi realized that if all the islands in the Totto Land Sea could be connected together...
To Totto Land's oceans into a single entity.
It would be of great benefit to the Azure Empire.
He thought about how to connect the Totto Land waters.
Zesi immediately thought of the Sea Train.
Speaking of the Sea Train, Zesi couldn't help but think of Tom.
He should have almost finished researching the Sea Train by now.
So Zesi brought in Sebast and asked him to investigate the situation in Water 7 and Tom.
The Secret Affairs have now established a vast intelligence network covering the entire world.
Sebast made a phone call and immediately learned everything about Tom's situation.
Soon, Zesi was told that Tom had finished building the Sea Train.
Furthermore, the trial ship from Enies Lobby will arrive in Water 7 in the next few days to pardon Tom's crimes.
But Zesi knew that Tom's final fate was still death.
Because someone is watching him.
Or perhaps they had their eyes on the Pluton Blueprints in his possession.
Even if we don't mention Tom, he's someone Zesi knows.
During Roger Pirates's world tour, he met Tom once and found him to be a very generous person.
Even for the sake of the Sea Train, Zesi couldn't bear to watch Tom die.
So he flew with the bear to Water 7.
"Bear, thank you for your trouble!" Zesi said with a faint smile.
"Understood!" Xiong said calmly, instantly disappearing from his spot and reappearing beside Tom.
He easily grabbed Tom with one hand.
"What are you going to do to Mr. Tom?" Franky shouted.
"Don't worry, this is Tom's friend, a former member of Roger Pirates, now the World's Strongest, the Azure Emperor. This guy is the Azure Emperor's subordinate, he won't harm Tom," said Kokoro.
At that moment, the bear clapped its hands at Tom, and a red sphere emerged from Tom's body.
Tom then slowly woke up.
He looked around in confusion, and finally his gaze fell on Zesi.
"I remember you were Roger's partner, named Zesi. Oh, and you're now the famous Azure Emperor of the New World!" Tom said.
"Hehehe, Mr. Tom, it's been a long time!" Zesi said casually.
"It has been a long time indeed. The last time was when Roger passed through Water 7!" Tom said with a smile.
"If helping Roger is a crime, then as a former member of Roger's crew, shouldn't I be the one arrested even more?" Zesi said with a smile, turning to the chief judge.
Cold sweat kept pouring down the referee's forehead.
If they could arrest him, they would have done so already.
In fact, the crimes you committed are no less serious than Roger's.
Even if we enlisted the entire World Government, we probably still wouldn't be able to catch you!
" Roger's crew are certainly guilty!" the judge declared.
[Hey, old man, don't talk nonsense! That's the Azure Emperor! A monster like that could kill you with a single glance if it got angry. If I had known this Fish-Man was related to the Azure Emperor, I would never have stirred up this trouble!] Upon Spandine turned pale and broke out in a cold sweat.
"But you are no longer someone I can judge!" the chief judge continued.
Hearing the referee's words, Spandine finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Heh, looks like they're not all cowards after all!" Zesi said, glancing at Spandine was trembling with fear and sweating profusely.
"But I don't believe you can't see that this bombardment of the judicial ship was a well-orchestrated show by this CP5 member. Others might be fooled, but as a presiding judge who has handled criminal trials for so many years, how could you not see such poor acting skills!" Zesi said calmly.
What did he say?
"The shelling of the judicial ship was a staged event orchestrated by CP5, the World Government agency." "He can't be mistaken!"
"Why would World Government agency attack a judicial ship?"
The surrounding crowd was astonished!
Spandine also feigned helplessness.
Now we know that Tom and the Azure Emperor are related.
If the Azure Emperor finds out that he was the one who plotted against Tom, he will suffer a terrible death.
"First of all, the biggest question about this matter is that Tom and his men had no motive for committing a crime. The judicial ship came to Water 7 today to pardon Tom's crimes, so they had no reason to shell the judicial ship at this time!" Zesi said with a faint smile.
"As for the ship being from Tom's Workers, that only proves that the ship was built by Tom's Workers. Tom's Workers builds many ships. Just because it's a ship from Tom's Workers doesn't prove that Tom fired on the judicial ship. Well, you shipbuilding companies have built quite a few ships too, right? If those ships go on robberies in the future, can we assume that you're the ones committing the robberies?"
"CP5 only caught them injured on the beach; that doesn't prove they were the ones who fired at the judicial ship!"
"And this is precisely the biggest question today: what is the purpose of Cipher Pol that only shows up in Water 7 when they have a reason?"
"As for your earlier mockery, how could the World Government's Cipher Pol possibly bomb the World Government's judicial ship? Infiltration, instigation, sowing discord, using any means to achieve their goals, and leaving no stone unturned in their pursuit of conspiracy—isn't that exactly the work of the Cipher Pol? CP5 bombing the judicial ship to frame Tom's Workers —is that really hard to understand?" Zesi said calmly.
This caused everyone around to gape in astonishment.
