Having traversed countless realms, can you possibly be as clever as me?

“Another god? A demon? God knows, but it’s beyond our control now,” Jabba shrugged, adding.

"Even if the captain comes back to life, there's nothing we can do. This is the realm of 'gods,' so it's best for us mortals not to speculate. — So, what happened next? What happened when you went to Lingling's place?"

"And then, Aqua captured the soul of Sister Carmel that was residing in Linlin's body." Rayleigh drank a glass of wine, then poured himself another.

"That nun was the previous owner of the Soul-Soul Fruit. When she was eaten by the crazed Linlin, she used her ability to transfer her soul to Linlin. After that, every time Linlin cuts her own soul to create a Homie, her soul would invade a part of Linlin."

"Hmph, I knew it~~~" Jabba stroked his chin, a knowing look on his face.

Although they weren't exactly acquainted with Charlotte Linlin, and could even be considered enemies, they had to admit that her personality became increasingly cunning and cruel as time went on.

When she was working under Rocks, she was a kind and righteous leader, but after leaving Rocks, her character deteriorated. After becoming Queen of Tales of Tales, she even turned her back on her own children. It was initially thought to be due to the influence of Longbread, but now it seems that it was more than that.

"So, after Lingling was purified and exorcised by Aqua, she inadvertently completed her soul, discovered Carmel's existence, drove her away, and her personality returned to normal." Rayleigh shrugged.

"She was kind of repaying kindness and settling scores, not settling scores with Bucky, but at the same time asking Bucky for a favor."

At this point, he glanced at Bucky, who was drinking and playing drinking games with Shanks not far away, and gave him a playful look.

Jabba paused for a moment, then gave a strange look.

"Could it be...?"

“Yes, she wants Bucky to marry one of her daughters!” Ridley’s face broke into a sly smile.

"Charlotte Smoothie, Lingling's fourteenth daughter, one of the four Sweet Commanders under her command, a top-notch fighter, and a beautiful girl with long legs."

"Looks like Lingling's got her eye on the One Piece too." Jabba stroked his chin, a gloating expression on his face.

"Hehehe, I wonder if Bucky's small frame can handle it?"

Jabba and Rayleigh are both true 'Emperor-level' powerhouses, and they know Buggy very well. The moment they saw this kid, they knew that all the legends on the sea were nonsense.

He was able to get to this point purely because of the incredible good fortune bestowed upon him by that perhaps imposter 'messenger of God,' and the four people Aqua and her companions whom he met by chance, or perhaps by fate.

But so what? If Buggy can obtain the One Piece and become the second Pirate King, they think that's acceptable too.

After all, they went to Laugh Tale back then, but due to the difference in timing and circumstances, they were unable to truly obtain the treasure that connected the world. It's impossible to say they had no resentment.

Isn't it interesting to let someone whom no one believes in win the final reward of the adventure?

Joy Boy, a name more suited to someone who is funny and interesting than a destined sun god.

"Alright, now that we've finished our drinks, I need to go to Marineford with Shanks and the others."

Rayleigh finished his drink, stood up, and waved goodbye. He was about to head to Marineford with Shanks and Big Mom, who was there to join in the fun and repay a favor.

Oh, and Whitebeard is also included. Apart from Kaido, who is already dead, we now have four Yonko-level fighters.

"Hey, are you sure you don't need my help?" Jabba asked, raising the bottle.

"I'd really like to see what the captain's son looks like!"

"No need, you can stay here and have some fun with Bucky and our goddess." Rayleigh waved his hand, then turned back with a confident smile.

"Don't worry, Jabba, we'll win."

689. The resurrected dead are not dead. The Marineford War begins!

will win

Standing atop the waves of Marineford, Sengoku looked at the righteous army gathered at Marine Headquarters and thought with absolute confidence...

With thousands of sails racing and masts lined up one after another, Sengoku mobilized almost all the elite forces from the four seas and the Grand Line for this war to re-establish the navy's prestige.

A total of 10 elite naval personnel and 50 warships surrounded Marineford, forming the best sea defense line to resist direct enemy attacks!

In addition, the giant cannons along the coastline, the massive steel walls in the harbor, and the triangular vortex currents formed by the "Gates of Justice" connecting the Marine Headquarters, Enies Lobby, and Impel Down constitute a natural strategic defense system.

Of course, these are all secondary. The key is the number of top-tier experts. This is always a world where the strong decide everything!

The core of the 16 vice admirals of the headquarters, himself, Garp, Zephyr, Borsalino and Kuzan, five top combatants, and Shamrock, who is said to be the strongest god knight.

Although they are not of one mind, the other side, together with several top CP0 members, is still quite powerful.

"There's nothing to be afraid of..." Sengoku murmured softly, gazing at the azure ocean.

The enemy consists of only Whitebeard and the Alabasta alliance, and they hold an absolute advantage in terms of top-tier, mid-tier, and bottom-tier combat power on both sides!

There are no excuses for losing, are there? Unless the Four Emperors of the New World join forces, unless...

"Reporting to the Marshal, there are still five hours until the execution. The criminal Fire Fist Ace has been escorted away, but we still haven't found any information about any members of the Blackbeard Pirates. However, Vice Admiral Momonga has discovered a warship that left without permission!"

The messenger's report caused Sengoku to fall silent, followed by a very brief laugh.

Sengoku almost forgot about the Seven Warlords of the Sea—in fact, he didn't want to think about the issue of these legal pirates, as it was just too troublesome.

They issued a mandatory summons order for the Seven Warlords of the Sea, but of the six existing Warlords, three openly resisted the summons.

Jinbe, the "Knight of the Sea," Boa Hancock, the "Empress," and Bartholomew Kuma, the "Tyrant."

The three gave very direct reasons—Jinbe directly betrayed them and told them that the Ryugu Kingdom had joined the Axis faith ten years ago. Now that the goddess has returned, under the leadership of Queen Otohime, who was rescued by the divine power of the Axis priests, they have openly converted to the Axis religion.

The other side is now part of the Alabasta coalition, so there's no need to think about it.

Boa Hancock's reason for not coming is quite straightforward—she despises the Celestial Dragons and wishes they were all wiped out, so there's no way she'd let her deal with Alabasta.

The last one is even more straightforward: Kuma was a member of the Revolutionary Army from beginning to end, and before the war, he directly joined the Alabasta Holy War Army along with the Kingdom of Sorbe.

In the end, only two newcomers obeyed the summons: Edward Weevil and Blackbeard, and Hawkeye, who was there purely to pick a fight.

And now Blackbeard is still missing? A Shichibukai, disappearing at a time like this, and running off in a warship somewhere unknown?

Sengoku almost laughed in exasperation when he heard this. The Seven Warlords system was truly a hindrance to their navy!

"Bring the flying squirrel back. As for Blackbeard... leave him alone!"

The moment has come to the most critical point. Even if Sengoku wanted to take down Blackbeard, he couldn't. The manpower is extremely scarce right now. For their navy, this battle is one where they can only win and cannot afford to lose.

Completely absorbed in the grand narrative of the navy's victories, he was completely oblivious to the strange expressions on the faces of several of his own men around him.

Zeff and Garp, without a doubt, would never do anything as shameless as betraying their own people or deserting.

But expect them to fight to the last man for the World Government? Absolutely not! The Celestial Dragons deserve to die!

In short, let them see just how vast the forces that aspire to build a new world truly are.

Time passed by, minute by minute.

A tense atmosphere spread throughout the Navy. Soon, Ace, who hadn't uttered a word, was led to the execution platform, and Sengoku gave Garp a special warning.

With only three hours left until the execution, the live broadcast across the entire sea, provided by Den Den Mushi, has already begun.

Sengoku revealed Ace's identity as Roger's son, which carried considerable weight—though in this day and age, it probably doesn't have the same impact as the name 'Bugsy the Clown'.

After all, the one being executed here was just Roger's good-for-nothing son.

If you navy are so capable, go and kill that Clown King who's about to become the second Pirate King! He's Roger's spiritual successor, okay?

970 >>

But Sengoku pretended not to hear these sharp criticisms; he heard nothing at all!

Anyway, Ace's death means that the Navy has once again suppressed the seas. Dead men are more useful than living men!

Meanwhile, on the seabed, the entire Whitebeard Pirates crew, preparing to directly storm the midfield through the coating, were also extremely tense.

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out.

It appeared in everyone's ears and before everyone's eyes. It was the messenger of God, now known to everyone on the sea, and Robin, the 'Devil's Son' with a bounty of 8700 million Berries, who was quite famous in a certain sense!

"People of the sea, children of the goddess Aqua."

Tsugumi's first words instantly sobered up Aqua, who was still drunk in Elbaf.

"It's him, it's him!!!" Aqua pointed a trembling finger at the smiling Tsugumi in the image, crying out in grief and indignation.

"It was this evil god who stole my divine status and impersonated me!!!"

"But he can grant his wishes!" Kazuma blurted out the words he'd been wanting to complain about all along.

"And why do I feel like he's even more powerful than you when he uses your divine power?"

Aqua suddenly became stammering, offering a barrage of excuses such as not feeling well, not having eaten enough, and having her power restricted in the lower realm.

In short, the air was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Then, immediately afterward, Tsugumi said something that shocked the whole world, and she stood up.

"This Miss Nicole Robin made a wish of mine, a wish I think is wonderful!" Tsugumi said happily, one hand pressed against her chest.

"What is this wish? It's very simple, he wants me to resurrect everyone who doesn't want to die within the last forty years~~~"

"This wish will last for the rest of the day, in other words—"

"Not only will the dead come back to life, but the living will also remain alive for the next day~~~"

Tsurugi held up one finger and flashed a bright smile.

"Then let a miracle happen."

The next moment, Tsurugi transformed into the form of an arrogant demon, with a red halo above his head beneath six radiant golden wings and six tattered bat wings.

—I am the most powerful demon in this world. I let countless kind souls enjoy eternal bliss in heaven, while I let countless sinful souls suffer torment in hell.

And now, I will give them another chance to walk the earth and take the exam again.

Ah, I am truly great and all-powerful.

Only God can rival my greatness!

Such arrogant and haughty thoughts swelled up the moment he used his power, and then Tsugumi activated his 'omniscient' power.

The soul will be transformed from its state between the two realms and returned to the present world!

An unparalleled miracle, far surpassing any previous one, has been achieved in this world.

Endless radiance descended from the sky, and then, one by one, the dead returned from the void.

"It's him, it's him!!!" Koza, aboard the Alabasta fleet, suddenly pointed at Tsugumi, who was now in the form of the Arrogant King on the screen, and shouted excitedly.
