The Great Voyage: A Family of Two Swordsmen, the Younger Brother is Golden Lion

Holy Land Marie Gioia.

In the palace.

The five elders gathered in the luxurious hall.

Three stood and two sat, their expressions serious.

As reports from God Valley continued to arrive, anger was written all over their faces.

"All the Celestial Dragons are dead??"

"What is the navy even good for?!"

"The main city palace was smashed? God Valley Island ascended to heaven?"

"What's going on?!"

The Celestial Dragons are, after all, descendants of nineteen royal families, so their population is still quite large.

The Celestial Dragons who went to God Valley to participate in the 'Treasure Day' this time accounted for one-fifth of the entire Celestial Dragon race, a number that is at least several thousand.

However, at that moment, a report came from God Valley!

Kazan wiped out all the Celestial Dragons with just one move: Island Smash!

So many Celestial Dragons!!!

What is the Navy doing?!

What is the CP organization doing?!

The Five Elders' eyes were practically bulging with rage!

In terms of seniority, the Five Elders are the ancestors of five families among the Celestial Dragons.

They were all agents sent out by their families, and they were also lucky ones.

Although the offspring are disappointing, becoming more and more useless the more they are raised.

But some of them.

It is an indisputable fact that they are descended from the Five Elders!

"A humiliating disgrace!" One of the Five Elders said in a deep voice, his fingers interlaced. "The situation is out of control. Lord Im may return to the scene ahead of schedule. When that happens, his wrath will be beyond what we can bear!"

Im, the true king of the world.

So mysterious that even the Five Elders know very little about Im.

All they knew was that Im was the true master of this world!

Regardless of wisdom, strength, authority...

Unstoppable and unstoppable!

"The true era has not yet arrived. No matter how chaotic the sea may be, it is destined to remain calm and undisturbed! Lord Im will not take this seriously at the moment!"

An elderly man said, "Aren't we worrying a little too much?"

“Not more than 950!” another elderly man replied. “There are too many unexpected events! It can cause variables!”

"Moreover, we found the surgical fruit during this Treasure Day!"

"I must go to the Valley of the Gods..."

Inside the palace, as the conversation continued, the atmosphere grew increasingly tense.

For many years, the Five Elders have been the spokespeople for the behind-the-scenes power holders in Mary Geoise.

They stand firmly behind the scenes, ruling the world as proxies.

The five of them rarely appeared in front of outsiders.

Unexpectedly, the God Valley incident not only came suddenly, but also spiraled completely out of control.

Even the Five Elders.

The time has come when we have no choice but to take action.

present.

Five people stood in the palace hall.

The five elder swordsmen drew their famous swords, the blades flashing with a cold light.

time.

A circular blue ring of fire formed around the five people on the ground.

"To the Yellow Springs—!"

As the azure flames rose, the five figures vanished from their spot.

The flames in the palace went out.

The scene changes.

The five of them have arrived in another world with extremely beautiful scenery!

This is the land of the dead!

In the world of One Piece, the Land of the Dead truly exists.

Just like Brook's Yomi Yomi no Mi (Revive-Revive Fruit), it also carries the background setting of the 'Land of the Dead'.

Simultaneously.

The original work also contains numerous indirect descriptions of the existence of the Land of the Dead.

When Usopp was dying, he said he saw "a beautiful sea of ​​flowers and a beautiful river that didn't seem like this world." Luffy also muttered something similar when he was dying!

Kaido, one of the Four Emperors, occupied Wano Country not only because of the presence of Seastone and Iron Ore mines there, but also because the real reason behind it was related to the Land of the Dead.

As an apprentice in the Rocks Pirates, he had always harbored the intention of 'reviving the captain'.

There's also a scene in the Wano Country arc where Zoro sees the 'Grim Reaper wielding his scythe'.

in other words.

Wano Country is the entrance and exit to the Land of the Dead.

It's just that ordinary people can't see it.

and.

This swordsman is one of the Five Elders.

He is a Paramecia-type Ring-Rumble Fruit user who is connected to the underworld!

The name of this fruit sounds quite ordinary; it's neither a Logia-type nor a Mythical Zoan.

However, these are the Devil Fruit abilities selected by Mary Geoise.

Its abilities are far more ferocious than its name suggests!

It could even be a fruit that could take the life of the weak at any moment!

Paramecia-type Ring-Rumble Fruit!

A person with special abilities can set up an arena and, by activating their abilities, forcibly pull a target into the arena space.

This arena does not exist in the human world!

Instead, it exists in the Land of the Dead!

When a user with superpowers defeats a target in the arena, they can leave the target's soul in the underworld forever. Furthermore, the user can enslave the defeated target, turning their ghost form into the user's 'ghost slave'!

The strength of 'Ghost Slave' was at its peak in the month leading up to its defeat!

However, if a Devil Fruit user loses in the arena...

Both sides will retreat back to the real world with their battle losses!

As ability users, the Five Elders possess the ability to retract their powers, so their risk of defeat is extremely low!

With this ability to create the Underworld Arena, the Five Elders of the Swordsmanship can make the Underworld Arena their exclusive place of enslavement with almost no cost.

For hundreds of years!

Many powerful individuals were sent to the Five Elders and fed to become their exclusive ghost slaves!

One person can form an army; perhaps this is the best description of this fruit!

With the blessing of endless life force and the support of supreme authority, the potential of this fruit is infinitely enhanced!

Meanwhile—!

Besides setting up the Underworld Arena.

Those with abilities can also bring people along without limit, using the Land of the Dead as a route to reach any location in the mortal world.

The operating mechanism of this space-traveling ability!

It's similar to the Paramecia-type Door-Door Fruit!

The Five Elders are the highest leaders of Mary Geoise, the pillars of the state. Strength is the most basic requirement for maintaining their power. Therefore, they all possess special abilities or Devil Fruit powers.

Da da da--
