One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 231 Celestial Dragons? Let's fight then.

When the Celestial Dragons were attacked, Admiral Kizaru was dispatched, and the entire Sabaody Archipelago was thrown into chaos, with Marines and battles visible everywhere.

Eleven supernovas became the Navy's primary targets for capture; however, ordinary forces were of no use against their bizarre and unusual abilities.

Island 1, Population Auction House.

"finished."

Goode arrived at the bridge leading to Island Number One and looked towards the human auction venue. There were marines everywhere, but no pirates in sight.

The battle appears to be over.

He arrived quite quickly, but the entire process, from the Celestial Dragons being attacked to the three captains escaping, probably took no more than ten minutes.

Chikara points to the bridge on the right.

"Lord Goode, Haldin is over there."

"Ah."

Goode glanced at it.

Haildin came to rescue the giant slave, and it seemed to go smoothly, with a chubby giant following behind him.

"Shh!"

With a flash to his side, Forsford appeared.

"Lord Goode."

"Fozfer?"

Goode looked at Who's-Who and asked with some surprise, "What are you doing here? Oh, I remember you were looking for Straw Hat Luffy? Where is he?"

"The straw hat ran away to the east."

Forsford was somewhat embarrassed.

He originally planned to wait for the Straw Hat to come out before killing him, but upon hearing the news that the Straw Hat had beaten up a Celestial Dragon, he immediately changed his mind.

That guy is insane!

Don't mess with them!
Fozfer was a little nervous and whispered a reminder: "Lord Goode, we'd better leave here as soon as possible."

"Leaving? Why?"

Goode frowned slightly, but quickly got the answer.

"Get out of the way!"

The navy surged toward him, with many doctors and two stretchers in the center of the group, seemingly transporting the wounded.

Considering the previous incident and the high-level escort provided, the identity of the injured person is quite obvious.

They are Celestial Dragons!

Who's expression changed, and he subconsciously took a step back to protect Goode in front of him. As a former government official, he knew better than anyone the authority and terror of the Celestial Dragons.

To become a slave is worse than death.

Chikara hid on the other side of Goode, clutching Goode's clothes and trembling, her eyes filled with uncontrollable fear.

Goode glanced at the two of them.

Who would protect their boss like that!
Really useless!

"Hurry up! If anything happens to Father or Brother, I will make you all slaves!"

The female Celestial Dragon, wearing an oxygen mask, angrily berated the Navy, her emotions reaching a breaking point. When she saw Goode directly in front of her, she became even angrier.

They didn't kneel down!

"Damn pariah!"

Charlia Palace angrily drew her gun and pulled the trigger at Goode.

"boom!"

The bullet struck Goode's arm and then bounced off.

"Ok?"

Goode lowered his gaze slightly, looking at the spot where he had been hit.

He was just passing by.

He wouldn't mind making way for the navy if they didn't cause trouble, but if they just opened fire on him...
At this moment, the naval escort team had already reached the bridge, and Charlia Palace also came to stand in front of Goode. Looking at Goode, who seemed completely unaffected, she felt a little puzzled.

Missed?
Then fire another shot!
Charlia Palace raised her gun again, and suddenly everything went black.

"Snapped!"

The oxygen mask shattered, and a powerful slap landed on her right cheek, leaving a clear handprint.

"Eh?"

Charlelia Palace was stunned by Goode's slap.

"Charlize Palace has been attacked!"

The accompanying marines were so shocked that they stood there dumbfounded watching this scene unfold, and all three Celestial Dragons were beaten!
Charlia covered her right cheek, staring at Goode in disbelief.

"How dare you hit me?!"

"Snapped!"

He also got slapped on the left cheek!

"Even my father never hit me!"

"Snapped!"

"I'm going to kill you!"

"Crack! Crack!"

"Waaaaahh ...

"Snapped!"

Goods slapped her back and forth, quickly disfiguring the female Celestial Dragon in front of her. Her swollen, bruised cheeks resembled a pig's head, and her eyes were completely obscured.

How dare you bare your teeth at him!
"thump!"

Charlize stumbled back several steps and collapsed between the two stretchers.

The family is neat and tidy.

It was only then that the marines came to their senses from the shock. Just as they were about to arrest the criminals, the brigadier general in charge stopped them.

"Put down your guns! This man is Earth Disaster, the vice-captain of the Beasts Pirates. We cannot make a move without orders from above!"

"But, Brigadier General!"

The marines looked towards Charlia Palace. They couldn't attack a Yonko without orders, but the Celestial Dragons had been attacked, and if they did nothing, they would certainly be punished.

"Cut the nonsense!"

The brigadier, his face dark, rebuked them, saying that with their limited forces, they couldn't even handle a supernova, so how could they possibly defeat the great pirate before them?

Moreover, protecting the lives of the three Celestial Dragons is the most important thing; at this time, we must not provoke them further.

"Contact headquarters immediately!"

"Yes!"

The marines watched Goode and his men swagger away, not daring to utter a single word, their hearts filled with resentment.

Chikara tugged at Goode's collar and asked weakly, "Lord Goode, are you sure it's alright that you hit a Celestial Dragon?"

"Go ahead and fight, don't worry."

Good shook his head and smiled.

He'll run into the Celestial Dragons sooner or later. Even if there wasn't a female Celestial Dragon today, other Celestial Dragons will provoke him in the future.

Those idiots have no manners.

Could it be that we've encountered a Celestial Dragon and are expected to kneel and pay our respects?
Even the Five Elders wouldn't dare make such a request of him!

Moreover, he also wanted to test the world government's attitude.

He is acquiring properties in Sabaody Archipelago, intending to expand his company's business into the World Government's territory, not only the first half of the sea area, but also the other three major sea areas.

If the Five Elders don't want to provoke him, what happened just now was at most a lot of noise but little real action, and the company can be more aggressive in its future expansion.

Even if the Five Elders don't agree, there won't be much of a loss.

If things don't work out, we can always have another fight.

At this point in time, the only way to fight him is to deploy the Knights of God; the Five Elders probably don't have the guts to fight to the death.

Goode smiled and looked at Chikara.

How did you feel just now?

"happy!"

Chikara's eyes lit up, and most of her fear of the Celestial Dragons dissipated. For the first time, she felt that the Celestial Dragons weren't so scary after all.

She also wanted to beat up those despicable Celestial Dragons!

"Haha, that's good."

Good smiled and looked at the nervous and uneasy Forzford beside him.

Ha, he's not as promising as that little girl.

"Forsford".

"exist!"

Forzford jumped, becoming as timid as a startled bird, fearing that his commander would suddenly appear.

Goode wasn't afraid; he was!

Goode narrowed his eyes: "I just received intelligence that Enies Lobby fell a few days ago, and CP9 was pursued by the Navy. Do you know where they might have fled to?"

"CP9 Rob Lucci!"

Forzford realized it instantly.

It sounds very strange that CP9 is being hunted by the Navy, but as a former government official, he knows the dark side of it all too well.

It's obvious that the blame for the fall of Enies Lobby falls on CP9; those incompetent officials just know how to shirk responsibility.

This experience is very similar to his.

The rubber fruit he was escorting was stolen by Shanks, and the responsibility fell entirely on him. If he hadn't risked his life to escape from prison, he would have been killed long ago.

"They will definitely go there!"

Forzford recalled his childhood experiences.

Each generation of CP9 members is an orphan carefully selected by the World Government, who begins rigorous training on an island from childhood.

That place could be considered their hometown.

Returning home when in distress is a biological instinct!
Therefore, Rob Lucci will definitely go to that island.

Jiangxinyu Island!

Forsford asked, "Lord Goode, are you looking for Rob Lucci?"

"Yes."

Goode nodded.

His Hoenn government lacks everything, especially intelligence. He can recruit CP9 members, which is more cost-effective than training them slowly.

Moreover, Rob Lucci is indeed a rare genius.

Goode ordered, "Forsford, go find Rob Lucci first, don't let him get away. I'll come find you after this war is over."

"Yes!"

Forzford grinned.

Finally, I can go toe-to-toe with Rob Lucci!
At this time, the sea train route.

Saint Poplar Island.

Inside the hospital, Lu Qi was wrapped in numerous bandages, having just undergone emergency surgery and still unconscious.

The other members are performing in town.

CP9 Zoo is now open for business.

"Kids, come and play! It's the giraffe slide!"

"Awooo! The big bad wolf is jumping through the fire ring!"

Do you need your room cleaned?

Everyone worked hard to attract customers.

Although they could rob money or force doctors to treat Lucci, they had no such banditry intentions. Instead, they braved the rain and earned money through hard work and performances.

In the ruins of Enies Lobby, they overheard Spandam blaming them for being wanted and having nowhere to go.

In other words, they are now criminals.

But no matter what happens in the future, we have to wait until Lu Qi wakes up before making a decision. Right now, what they need to do is raise money for medical expenses!
