"No one should have seen it, right?"

Nami's lips trembled, and she turned her head away with a sense of relief.

Suddenly,

More than two hundred sailors stood silently in place, their faces strange, staring at her.

Smoker instinctively turned his head away, trying to pretend he hadn't seen it.

Although one cannot truly die inside the Trial Tower, if word gets out that this incident is detrimental to protecting the World Nobles, it would be enough to get him demoted.

Aside from the Loguetown Navy, probably no one else saw it, right?

Smoker looked up, his body suddenly stiffening.

His gaze was perfectly positioned to pierce through the sky above Death Island and reach the video Den Den Mushi (snail phones) that were set up in all directions outside the Trial Tower area.

This scene has been broadcast around the world via live stream.

Chapter 164 The Revolutionary Army Makes its Appearance! They're even here to steal monsters?

Naval Headquarters, Marinevando.

Sengoku stared at the resurrected Buggy, his face grim, and said, "That bastard Smoker, did he even listen to my orders? He actually caused Lord Buggy's death in battle!"

"In the strange trial tower of the game merchant, you can be resurrected even if you die, it's okay."

Aokiji had already removed his blindfold, his eyes constantly scanning the image Den Den Mushi.

Those pirates frantically vying for the treasure, those branch marines who gathered together to fight against the pirates, and those civilians who, despite being the weakest, were still struggling desperately.

All the images were reflected in his eyes behind his glasses.

"It's not about whether or not someone can be resurrected; it's about dignity, honor, and the face of the world's nobility!"

Sengoku angrily slammed his fist on the table, smashing the corner of it to pieces.

Soon, naval personnel carried in a new conference table, replacing what was now an unknown number of damaged tables.

Aokiji nodded lazily and said, "Is that so?"

Beside him, Kizaru pouted and said in a strange tone, "Still so lazy. As a Marine Admiral, shouldn't you be thinking more about capturing pirates?"

Aokiji said speechlessly, "I don't need you to worry about me, but I just don't want you to question my work attitude."

"Give me the order to strip Smoker of his rank of colonel and demote him to a regular naval officer."

"And that pirate with the straw hat, who dared to beat up a Celestial Dragon, has a bounty of fifty million."

"Especially that last orange-haired woman, with a bounty of 80 million Berries, the Orange Devil!"

Sengoku frowned as he announced the decision regarding Smoker and the Straw Hat Pirates.

That should satisfy the Five Elders.

Aokiji changed his posture and leaned back in his seat.

Is this the justice of the Five Elders?

Without investigation, it is unclear how much harm the Straw Hat Pirates pose to civilians, yet they have a bounty of hundreds of millions simply for beating up a Celestial Dragon.

This reminded him of the Ohara incident he had been involved in.

A group of scholars who violated the laws of the World Government were wiped out by the Buster Call, and his friend Saul fought desperately to stop the demon child he had released.

Is it also a form of justice?

Aokiji was confused.

Despite his seemingly lazy appearance, his eyes were fixed intently on the images playing on countless video Den Den Mushi (snail phone blocks).

He had a strange feeling that he might find the answer to his own confusion about justice in these pirates, marines, civilians, and even the game merchants who were stirring up trouble.

"Hmph hmph hmph. Is this the place?"

Doflamingo, suspended in mid-air by a single thread, carefully examined the pitch-black giant tower.

Will the Devil Fruit's power disappear if you step into a certain area of ​​the giant tower?

boom.

A white line popped out.

It precisely pierced through a pirate ship, pulling him over entirely.

The pointed shoes made a crisp sound as they landed.

"This ship is now under my command."

"asshole."

Puff puff.

The high-speed projectile, like a gunshot, pierced through the pirates' bones, and the momentum carried them tumbling into the sea.

Previously, Doflamingo had killed a pirate and stolen the Contract Fruit from him, thus gaining the qualification to enter the Trial Tower.

He wants to personally go into the Trial Tower to verify the authenticity of the Celestial Dragon bloodline!

Despite the clear view that countless pairs of visual Den Den Mushi were watching every move within the Trial Tower area, he remained utterly unrestrained.

The pirate ship pushed through the waves and landed on the edge of the island of death.

A group of pirates suddenly attacked.

"Another big fish has taken the bait."

"Being targeted by our thief gang is your bad luck. Quickly trade me your valuables, or we'll kill you until you don't even have the chance to be resurrected."

The leader of the thieves sneered repeatedly.

They were a gang of thieves from the Kingdom of Goa. After landing on Death Island, they found that they had no way to snatch the Corrupted Monster from the vicious pirates and the powerful navy. So they came up with a brilliant idea: to block the edge of Death Island and hunt down the new players who would subsequently arrive.

Most of these players are newbies who haven't even finished their contract quests, yet they already possess a beginner's piece of equipment or a skill, making them very easy to deal with.

They staked out the area for four days.

They made a fortune.

"Something valuable?"

Doflamingo looked at the players in the thief group, a smirk playing on his lips, and then burst into laughter.

Since becoming the Emperor of Dressrosa, being recruited by the Navy as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and cooperating with Kaido to become the Black Emperor of the underworld, it has been a long time since anyone dared to say such stupid things in front of him.

It had been rumored for a while that all the pirates with slightly stronger fighting power in the East Blue had been captured by the Navy hero Garp, and even news about the Grand Line had been blocked.

That's really laughable.

"If I had to pick the most valuable thing, it would probably be my head, right?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Kill him twice and he'll behave!"

The bandit leader struck first, unleashing a sword aura that only a master swordsman could produce.

This is the contract skill he obtained, and it is extremely powerful.

"This is a skill, a truly terrifying technique. Not only can I not use the String-String Fruit, but it even affects my Haki."

"Hehehe, I'm getting more and more excited about the rewards of having Celestial Dragon blood."

Doflamingo slightly turned his body to dodge the sword energy, and then suddenly swung his right fist forward.

Next second,

Suddenly, a layer of intricate mechanical armor appeared on his right arm, and scorching flames erupted, turning the spot where the thieves stood into a sea of ​​fire.

This is the skill [Fire Cloud Arm] that he was rewarded with after completing the contract fruit mission.

The puppeteers, skilled in mechanical arts from a world of ghosts and monsters, can create all sorts of bizarre puppets, and can even merge with puppets to unleash superhuman power.

"It's only level 5, but its power is almost close to the Five-Colored Threads that I've been cultivating for many years. It's truly amazing."

Doflamingo withdrew his arm, watching the gradually disappearing fiery cloud armor with great interest.

This new ability, called Mechanical Art, seems to be a perfect match for his String-String Fruit.

"Only by leveling up in the game can you continue to get stronger? How interesting."

Doflamingo lifted his pointed shoes and walked deeper into the island of death.

the other side,

At the landing point guarded by the navy, pirates on several pirate ships have been captured, chained up, and taken to warships docked at the shore.

These pirates and civilians who followed, just as the bandit group said, only possessed one skill or a piece of beginner equipment, and were no match for these marines at all.

"Very good, keep it up like this, and don't let any more new players land on the island."

They are from the 8th Naval Division.

Having received a personal order from Fleet Admiral Sengoku of the Navy Headquarters, the number of new players landing on Death Island must be reduced.

The obese Nelson Roy, with a long, narrow mustache, gently rubbed it in his hand.

His small eyes kept darting around, and inside the warship, where the Den Den Mushi couldn't see, he looted the valuables from the detained pirates and civilians, selling them to the Reincarnation Game.

Dozens of beginner gear items, along with the Beli they could control, were sold for hundreds of reward points.

Although he didn't earn much, it was all his own, and he used it all to upgrade his skills.

"Once I've accumulated enough reward points, I'll sell them all at once. That's tens of millions of Berries, enough to buy those vampires in the Marine Headquarters a better position."

Although Roy is a branch admiral, he dreams of returning to the Grand Line.

The East China Sea was poor and weak, with no chance of getting rich.

"Reporting to the Admiral, a ship has been spotted approaching!"

"Stop them!"

Roy's eyes lit up when he saw the merchant ship approaching.

Pirates are all poor bastards, but these merchant ships are full of nobles and merchants, who can at least squeeze millions of Berries out of them.

At the top of the pitch-black tower, Fang Yi, who had already returned to the game room, suddenly focused his gaze on the edge of Death Island.
