Starting with Kengan beating up the Pirate King

Chapter 127 Change, The Final Battle Approaching

March 1520, 5 in the Haiyuan calendar.

Luffy was excited all day.

When he was young, he made a promise with Sabo and Ace that he would set sail at the age of 17 and become the freest pirate. Tomorrow is his 17th birthday!
The small boat for setting sail was already prepared. Just like when Ace set sail, Luffy only prepared three days' worth of food and water. He kept running around the village, saying goodbye to everyone he knew, and telling them that he would be setting sail the next morning.

On what felt like the umpteenth time I'd run to Makino's tavern, the once bustling place had become eerily silent.

The bandits, unlike before who were playing drinking games and drinking, were now passing around several newspapers, their eyes practically glued to them, completely unaware of Luffy's arrival once again.

“Luffy…” Makino looked at Luffy running in, a hint of worry in her eyes.

The oblivious Luffy didn't notice these changes, and simply ran up to Makino with a grin, saying, "Give me a glass of water, Makino-neechan!"

"Ah... oh."

Luffy took the water glass and drank it all in one gulp. Only then did he notice some strange noises behind him. He turned around curiously and asked, "Why is everyone staring at me?"

The bandits exchanged glances, trying to understand each other's intentions—"You tell us? Or you tell us?"

"Makino! Did the tavern get the newspaper the newsbird just delivered?! Don't let Luffy see it! That kid..."

Just then, Dadan suddenly rushed in from outside the tavern, shouting as she ran.

Their movements and sounds stopped abruptly the moment they saw Luffy. Luffy looked puzzled and casually took the newspaper from the bandit next to him.

"You won't let me see?"

"Luffy!"

Dadan was shocked and rushed forward to snatch it, but Luffy instantly stretched out his arms and held the newspaper up to the ceiling to read, making it impossible for Dadan to reach it.

"The Great Pirate Era... has finally ended! The new Pirate King, Ian the Flame Tiger!"

Phew—pop!

The outstretched arm snapped back with a crisp sound, and Luffy stood there, stunned, his eyes glazed over.

In fact, the headline he was reading didn't even occupy the front page of the newspaper he was holding.

The dispute over the ownership of the Great Treasure ended more than half a year ago, and now it has finally been settled.

The newspapers also recorded that "the Revolutionary Army launched a surprise attack on the Holy Land Mary Geoise, formally challenging the World Government and inviting all member states of the World Government to break away from its rule."

And the astonishing history that 'the truth of the world? It is not the 20 gods who created the world, but the rebels who first abandoned the world and then seized it.'

But Luffy only had this news in his eyes, and his anxiety finally died.

He won't become the Pirate King!
……

The world shook.

The World Government and the Five Elders no longer had the resources to shut Morgans up. This time, he had made a big splash and even seemed poised to become the spokesperson for the Revolutionary Army.

The truth of history and the Revolutionary Army's declaration of war against the World Government spread like wildfire throughout the world, reaching the kings of every kingdom and every ordinary person, preparing everyone to face a world transformation!

Some countries that had fallen into lawless zones because they couldn't pay the Heavenly Gold and become members of the World Government were overjoyed and quickly contacted the Revolutionary Army, which then sent them 'instructors'.

Many member states of the World Government, long suffering under its rule, have seized the opportunity to defect, hoping to gain a place in the new world order.

Of course, many countries could not make a decision on such a big matter immediately, so the revolutionary soldiers traveled all over the seas, personally persuading the kings of each country.

Just as they were sending several freed slaves home, Kerla arrived at Amazon Lily.

As the Revolutionary Army had expected, Empress Boa Hancock readily agreed to join, though she said with some displeasure, "Where is Ian? Why didn't he come to invite me in person? Has he forgotten my help?"

Kera observed her expression, smiled, and said, "Lord Ian will be extremely busy these days. There are many troublesome kingdoms that require his personal attention. He said that everything would be fine here with the Empress, which is why he sent me here."

"...Hmph, that bastard who didn't even offer a word of thanks after having Xiong bring me back!"

Meanwhile, Guan Yi was communicating with King Kobra in the Kingdom of Alabasta.

Sabo went to Dressrosa.

"Fufufufu... After Kaido's death, I'm practically Ian's subordinate now. A simple phone call would have sufficed. Why bother the Revolutionary Army's Chief of Staff to come all the way here?" Sabo's expression was devoid of a smile as he stared at Doflamingo and said, "Because I'm here to see the true king of this country, King Riku!"

Doflamingo's smile froze.

"This is... Ian's intention?"

“No, it’s the Revolutionary Army’s decision after their investigation,” Sabo said. “The Revolutionary Army’s will is to liberate all countries, and this kingdom of Dressrosa, which you stole, is also an important target for our liberation. Ian has many things to do and doesn’t have time to pay special attention to this place.”

"Fufufufu...fufufufu..."

Doflamingo laughed again, but his smile became dangerous. He was filled with anger, yet this anger was also tinged with helplessness.

Is that so? Without even giving a word, they want to take away the country I've built up over almost ten years?

My God, Doflamingo, was he ultimately just a tiny wave swept away by the tides of time?!
He stared at Sabo in silence for a long time, then finally waved his hand and said, "Okay, I'll take you there."

'The national treasure is still in that monster's hands; she's probably gathering her strength. The outcome is still uncertain. If the Revolutionary Army wins, everything will be over, but if Ian loses… hmph hmph hmph.'

At this moment, Guan Yi soared over ten thousand miles and then plunged into the deep sea, arriving at Fishman Island.

King Neptune, the princes, and Jinbe the knight of the sea greeted him at the entrance to Fishman Island.

Guan Yi's personal arrival speaks volumes about his attitude; fish-men and mermaids have finally gained respect and are being treated equally with ordinary humans.

Despite countless years of effort, they had not been able to obtain equality from the World Government. Guan Yi solemnly promised: "Changing everyone's mind is a step-by-step process, but I can guarantee that, at least under my forces and the Revolutionary Army, no one will treat you any differently!"

“That’s enough!” Neptune declared.

"Ian! I'd like to offer you a toast!" Jinbe raised his glass and said, "I hope you won't hold it against me for accepting the Marine Headquarters' summons back then."

"In the end, you didn't lay a hand on me, did you?"

Guan Yi clinked glasses with him, drank it all, and then said, "King Neptune, I would like to see your daughter, Princess Shirahoshi. Is that alright?"

"...Shirahoshi?"

……

Elbaf.

Whitebeard Pirates.

The red-haired pirates.

Naval Headquarters!

For the next month, Guan Yi traveled all over the world, communicating with people he needed to communicate with personally, and accomplishing a series of major events that influenced the world order.

With Guan Yi's help, Loki, the giant prince, was exonerated from the accusation of murdering his father.

Whitebeard decided to lead his sons into retirement back to their hometown, and a new Pirate King was born. He ultimately decided to end his legendary life in an ordinary way.

Shanks joined the coalition against the World Government and shared some details he knew about the Celestial Dragons' national treasure, the 'artificial sun'.

The navy became an independent navy, and negotiated to obtain financial supplies from the countries that joined the revolutionary army alliance, and stationed itself around the world.

[Life Points: 689566]

[Life Points: 710355]

[Life Points: 755998]

Guan Yi's life value is constantly increasing.

Among them, the two major events of arriving at Laugh Tale, destroying Im's Void Throne, and having the Revolutionary Army declare war on the World Government directly increased his life points by more than 300,000!
100 million points is no longer so far away.

In a world undergoing rapid changes, in April of the 1521st year of the Haiyuan calendar, Guan Yi's life value finally increased, surpassing this crucial number!
[Life Points: 1000003]

[The final stage of the plan can be activated by spending 100 million Life Points: Forging a Legend - Entering a state of enlightenment, greatly enhancing one's martial arts skills.]

The day of the decisive battle is drawing near!
