Pirates: Improving your strength depends entirely on watching the fun!

They quickly reported the matter to their superiors.

It was reported up through many levels and finally reached the Five Elders.

"It's this Xia again. Although he is not from the D clan, nor does he possess any special fruit, his destructive power has surpassed these people."

"We can't just sit back and do nothing anymore. People like this must be cleared out."

"Shall we go find him? Should we attack together?"

"No, Xia's fighting ability is not weaker than ours."

"Are we just going to watch them being so arrogant?"

"Don't worry, the stuff will be back soon. If we want to test the power of the Heavenly King, we have to find a place. I think the small island near Egghead Island is a good place."

After a moment of silence, several people nodded together, saying that this was indeed a good idea.

"We still need to get the intelligence, preferably when they are all on the island."

The plan for the Five Elder Stars has been finalized.

Xia Zheteng, who was unaware of this plan at the time, was still dealing with Mingge's factory.

On the sea not far from a small island, Xia's people gathered here again, and opposite them were three huge warships.

On the front battleship, Jack stood there, looking at Xia on the small boat opposite, feeling helpless.

He had fought with Xia Zheteng and was defeated miserably, but this time, he met Xia Zheteng again.

"Isn't this Jack? How did he appear in this sea area? What's going on? Where is he going?" Xia Zheteng smiled and looked at Jack in front of him.

Jack could only laugh dryly and said, "Um, Lieutenant General Xia Zheteng."

"I'm not a marine anymore."

"That's right." Jack clapped his hands, "You are no longer a marine, so do you want to come with me to support Brother Ming? This is support among us pirates."

Xia Zheteng laughed and said, "The problem is, the Straw Hats and Law who are fighting against Ming Ge are also pirates. It's not good to support either side, right?"

"Then you just watch and don't help at all." Jack thought about it and decided that as long as Xia Zhe couldn't help, it would be fine.

However, just as he finished saying this, he felt two murderous gazes.

Chapter 422 There is an inside story

Jack followed his feeling and looked over, and what he saw was Ace and Rami.

Neither of them wore masks, so they were instantly recognizable.

"You're not helping either of us, Jack. Who are you helping?" This time it was Ace who asked the question.

Jack raised his eyebrows and said, "It's different. Brother Ming is our business partner. I am here to save my partner."

"Luffy is my brother."

"Luo is my brother."

Ace and Rami glared at Jack fiercely, and Jack began to sweat.

Although he is arrogant, he still understands the pros and cons.

He could act arrogant when he saw Zhan Guo and He, but when he saw Quinn and Jin, he immediately became a little brother.

What he was sure of now was that neither Ace nor the younger-looking Rami were people he could afford to offend.

However, there seems to be no way out now.

Jack thought about it, and finally twisted his neck and said, "In that case, then go ahead and fight if you want."

"Let's do it." Xia Zheteng shrugged and took two steps back.

Then, Ace and Rami rushed forward, and Jack quickly transformed into his beast form, and managed to stop the two for a while.

But it was only for a moment, their ship soon caught fire, and under the attack of magma, the ship could not withstand it at all.

Besides, isn’t there a flame on the Immortal Island?

So of the three large ships, soon only one was left. Jack was on the ship, waving his nose, trying to knock Ace away, but was blocked by the huge iron fist that Ace transformed from the elements.

The domineering collision did not allow Ace to gain much advantage, but then the power of the magma began to take effect.

No one can stop the heat.

Jack was knocked flying, breaking several masts, and then fell directly into the water.

He was sinking, and on the sea, his men also began to sink after their ship was sunk.

Ace and Lamy flew back to the ship.

"Done." Ace clapped his hands in satisfaction.

"It's just a temporary fix at best. With Jack's ability, it will reappear once it's salvaged."

"This..." After hearing what Xia Zheteng said, Ace looked back at Tiger and wondered whether he should let the fishman go into the water and kill that guy.

"Don't look at me. I won't take action." Tiger shook his head. Although he followed Xia now, he was also a murloc. It was not easy for murlocs to survive, so it was better not to attack his own people.

Xia Zheteng just smiled and said, "Let him be. Our strategic goal has been achieved, that's all. Let's go."

"Are you going back to Dressrosa?"

"Well, I guess the battle has already started. Let's go and watch the fun. Also, we should go and see Ace over at the Straw Hats. After all, we haven't seen you three brothers for a long time."

Ace nodded, and Xia's ship started moving, heading towards Dressrosa.

The battle of Dressrosa is also coming to an end.

As Luffy and his crew broke into the imperial palace and with Usopp's performance, eventually all of them were put on Mingo's wanted list.

And Usopp took the top spot with the highest price.

When Xia Zheteng and his companions came back, they arrived at this time.

"Oh my, this is really a mess." Xia Zheteng stood on a ruin and looked down. At this moment, all the pirates were fighting, with flying rocks, explosions and gunshots.

No one cared about the lives of the civilians. What they cared more about was whether they could defeat a person on the bounty list and get a huge reward.

Thieves and robbers also came along. They roamed around and took this opportunity to use other people's money to replenish their own pockets.

A few thugs armed with knives trapped the two women in a corner.

"Take out the money, no one will notice you now." The gangsters were very happy.

We just had too much fun and ran out of money, so the place became a mess.

Although part of the navy is protecting civilians, it is only a part of it. There is still a large shadow in this world that no one is taking care of.

The two women were terrified. There was no way out. They knew that everything was over. There was more than just greed in the eyes of these gangsters.

A ball of green flame swept past, and the three gangsters fell to the ground wailing.

Their legs were broken and they could no longer move.

Several people in black cloaks were walking towards us from a distance.

Xia Zheteng had a cold face, and a domineering aura was surging in his body.

Combined with the lightning on his body, the entire island was covered.

"Everyone, I have to say one more thing. I don't care if you are from the navy or pirates, whether you are pirates with bounties of hundreds of millions or thugs who can only steal. From now on, anyone who dares to attack civilians will die."

Xia Zheteng's voice spread throughout the island.

"The pirates' battles should be fought by the pirates. If the navy wants to complete the mission, they can proceed as planned. However, please do not accidentally hurt civilians. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless, no matter who it is."

The huge sound echoed around the island and was heard by all the pirates and navy.

Sabo looked up at the sky, smiled slightly, and said, "This feels pretty good."

On the other side, Fujitora said in a deep voice: "Order all navy to abandon the target and focus on rescuing civilians."

"Yes." A soldier went down to convey the order.

Although the big pirates seemed to disdain Xia Zheteng's orders, they finally gave the order, only targeting Mingo or the Straw Hat Pirates.

Only some small gangsters didn't care. They always thought that such a big shot would never target them.

However, Xia Zheteng, who used the mind network to grasp the entire Dressrosa's movements, was directing other members of Xia to constantly put out fires.

Several robbers broke into an ordinary citizen's house and just knocked the male owner to the ground when they saw a tall black shadow appear in front of them.

The black cloak and white mask with the cloud pattern on it makes people feel scared.

Then, the opponent knocked them out with a punch, and they fell to the ground, seriously injured, but fortunately they were not dead.

The man in the cloak didn't say anything. After finishing his task, he walked to the window and flew away.

"It was Xia, it was Xia who saved us." The family shouted happily.

The unrest among civilians was quelled, but the main battle became even more intense.

Just when Xia Zheteng felt that he had almost finished cleaning up, a figure appeared behind him.

Xia Zheteng looked back and saw a familiar face, the pursuer Maynard.

"Oh, are you here to chase me, Maynard?"

"No, I'm just passing by." Maynard smiled and joked. How many lives would he have left to waste here if he wanted to chase Xia Zheteng?

Xia Zheteng also laughed: "If I get a chance, tell Sakaski that he still has a long way to go before he can control the rudder. I'll give him a hand."

Maynard raised his eyebrows, there must be something fishy going on.

Chapter 423 Sakaski's Preparation

Several famous pirate leaders in the New World were thrown at Maynard's feet. They were all killed directly by Xia's men.

"Leave these guys to Sakaski. The Straw Hats saved the future of this country, and the Navy should at least save the present of this country. Protecting civilians is what the Navy must do. Don't throw the safety of civilians aside for a few pirates."

Maynard raised his eyebrows and finally sighed helplessly.

Even though Lieutenant General Xia Zheteng has left the navy, the words he says and the things he does still require him to uphold the justice of the navy.

"I understand. I'll go right away." Looking at the pirates under his feet, Maynard clenched his fists. Protecting civilians is justice. Isn't this the justice that Admiral Fujitora agrees with?

done.

Watching Maynard leave, Xia Zheteng nodded, waved his hand and said, "Let's go too, otherwise we won't be able to leave for a while."

"what happened?"

"It's nothing. To be honest, if we use all our strength, I think the birdcage should be able to open. After all, no matter how strong Ming Ge is, he can't surpass the Four Emperors and the Admirals."

Xia Zheteng knew in his heart that the skill of the bird cage made even Fujitora helpless. The people in the bird cage had no way to resist it. This was simply unrealistic.

To be honest, if Mingge's birdcage was really that awesome, this guy wouldn't have been chased so badly by the crane.

So, it was completely a kill of the protagonist. In order to reflect the aura of the protagonist, the bird cage had to be given a blessing, making the big guy in the bird cage seem a little less impressive.

But it is better not to do anything rash. Xia Zheteng has no intention of wasting time here. His mission has been completed. The World Government is probably already preparing to kill him.

And the only way to kill him is to use that weapon.

Xia Zheteng knew in his heart that the distance between him and the king was getting closer and closer.

"Let's go." Soon, Xia Zheteng and the others quickly left here.

Ace looked back one last time.

"Don't worry, there will be reports soon. Luffy is still very strong."

There is no problem with this. After all, who in the world can beat a guy who can fully recover by doing sit-ups?

Xia Zheteng was thinking that if he fought with Luffy's crew, there would probably be a lot of variables. It was really depressing.

But fortunately, this is not my goal.

Shortly after they left, a birdcage appeared, covering the area.

However, Xia Zheteng and the others were already outside the birdcage.

After boarding the ship, everyone looked back once before leaving.

Two days later, several people returned to the small island near Egg Head Island, and Xia Zheteng quickly arranged the tasks.
