Pirate: My Piltover technology is far ahead!

Chapter 16 Heroes?

"What's going on? Is it an earthquake? Has Newgate gone mad?!"

"It doesn't matter who it is, let's think about how to get off this island! I think this island is about to sink!"

The effects of Oran's gift continue. The explosion at the center triggered a chain reaction. Although the canyon terrain affected the blast radius, the entire island was impacted by the sheer force of the blast.

The Celestial Dragons began their evacuation under the protection of the Navy, but it wouldn't be easy to take a bunch of useless people away smoothly under these circumstances, as these people don't have the ability to teleport.

"The Celestial Dragons' ship has capsized! Quick, go save them!"

"Rodriguez has fallen! Pull him up quickly!"

The navy was in a state of chaos, and the pirates began to look for their own escape routes, the most convenient of which were those like Golden Lion Shiki, who could fly.

As for Locus?

The structure of the Rocks Pirates meant that no one would fight to the death for their captain.

Rumble.

Under the impact, the mountains of God Valley began to collapse.

Hextech crystals contain immense energy, and it is through this special energy that hextech craftsmen are able to create one incredible invention after another.

Destruction is much easier than creation. To make something run stably, you need to think about the stable flow of energy. But self-destruction doesn't require that. You only need to think about how to unleash its greatest power.

"Kaido! This thing is yours. Rocks is probably finished. How about joining my pirate crew?"

"Hehehe, Lingling, you should know my answer."

"Well, well, you're right. Don't die, Kaido. See you another time!"

Powerful pirates on the island began to leave in various ways, and Kaido also ate the fruit given to him by Charlotte Linlin, transforming into a blue dragon and flying away from the island.

As for why he could fly after eating it, it's just normal. The people who can't even use the most basic abilities of a Devil Fruit are the ones with problems.

A few days later.

South China Sea, the Kingdom of Sorbe.

This is the homeland of the bear, and one of the locations where the bear delivered the beacon. Some people were transported to this country using the power of the Hextech Gate. Many did not choose to stay, but instead took a boat and left after resting.

They can't stay together forever; they need to find new ways of life.

"Mr. Oran, I'm leaving now. Thank you for saving my life. I'll be waiting for you on Fishman Island!"

Shaq knelt down formally on the beach, then turned and dived into the sea. He was a fish-man and did not need to rely on ships like humans.

Fishman Island is a memory etched into the very bones of this race, and the fishmen naturally have a way to return there.

Shak was not the first to leave; those who remain in the Kingdom of Sorbe are now a very small minority.

This was Xiong Yuan's former home, located in an old church.

At that moment, Ivankov was reading the newspaper in his hand, and even before Oran entered the room, his disdainful tone could be heard.

"Let's see, the wicked pirate Rocks has attacked God Valley in the West Blue for unknown reasons and kidnapped a Celestial Dragon who was traveling. Traveling? These guys really dare to say that."

"Otherwise what? They won't admit to a massacre. This kind of behavior is even worse than a massacre. Haven't you already known the true colors of the World Government?"

"Oran, you're back? I know that, but there's not a single word in the newspaper that I can believe, especially this reporter named Morgans. He wrote a bunch of articles, but not a single one of them made any sense!"

He had no idea what was happening on the island; he was just imagining things.

The hero Garp fought for several days to defeat Rocks, saving countless naval soldiers and world nobles. It's disgusting to watch.

I think this newspaper should be renamed "The Legend of Hero Garp".

You and Xiong are the real heroes! You rescued at least four thousand people from that island!

This is the result Ivankov obtained after compiling statistics. The number was estimated piecemeal from the freed slaves, the original natives of God Valley, and the people who were blown away by the bear.

"It's normal. As those in power, guiding public opinion is a basic tactic. The World Government has done a terrible job in this regard. I think they just want to use this opportunity to promote the strength of the navy and help their rule."

As for those so-called heroes, they're a joke. If they wanted to, even a dog could be put in that position.

"Isn't there any information on Celestial Dragon casualties? If it's just one, it's a bit of a loss."

Oran doesn't care who the naval hero is; Coby can be regarded as the future of the navy anyway.

Although Roger and Garp teamed up to defeat Rocks, the idea of ​​the Navy and pirates teaming up could never be made public. In the end, everything about Roger was erased, and all the credit was given to Garp.

A gag order has been issued in the Navy. Although news about God Valley can still be seen now, according to the World Government's plan, this matter will soon be completely hidden in the darkness of history and never be mentioned again.

"Let me see the details. The newspaper only said there were minor casualties. This reporter is really incompetent."

Ivankov flipped through the pages again, but didn't find any valuable information. It was all just platitudes from the World Government and wanted posters for the remaining members of the Rocks Pirates.

After all, in the newspapers, the root cause of all this destruction was attributed to pirates.

Meanwhile, in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, the atmosphere was extremely tense.

Even World Government officials are extremely cautious here. Everyone knows that the Celestial Dragons become very unhappy after going out, and recently many people have been executed by the Celestial Dragons for various inexplicable reasons.

"Gentlemen, this is the current situation: Erladin was brutally killed by the enemy, five others died from the aftershocks of the explosion, and countless others were injured."

Gringu was holding a meeting with the members of the Knights of God, and members of various Celestial Dragon families were also listening in. This was a major event that had not occurred in hundreds of years for the Celestial Dragons.

Moreover, there is an even more troublesome problem: the massive explosion on God Valley, coupled with the battles between several monsters on the island, has now caused God Valley Island to disappear from the sea.

The Celestial Dragons wanted to track down the culprit, but for a time they couldn't find any clues. Oran's appearance even triggered a series of chain reactions. For example, Kuma did not run into Satan in God Valley, which made it even more difficult for the Celestial Dragons to track down information.

News of God Valley was kept secret from the outside world, but not from within the Celestial Dragons themselves, ultimately making it one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in the history of the Celestial Dragons.
