After retiring from the Navy, I became a doting husband.

Sakazuki got up, spitting out a mouthful of blood; Martin's attack had directly injured him.

"Die! All of you die!"

Sakazuki seemed unable to accept the outcome and screamed wildly.

As Sakazuki screamed wildly, he became elementalized, and boiling magma continuously gushed out from where he had been standing, turning the area into a volcano.

"Hmph! Don't even think about destroying my Gaya Island!"

Martin instantly understood Sakazuki's plan: he wanted to turn the entire island into an active volcano and burn everyone on it to death.

"A powerful impact!"

A surge of overwhelming power erupted from Martin's fist, striking the crater formed by Sakazuki. The crater, which had been spewing lava continuously, then went out of control, and a figure appeared there.

"puff!"

Sakazuki coughed up a mouthful of blood and lost his ability to transform into an elemental.

Martin's attack just now directly injured the elementalized Sakazuki and damaged his internal organs, rendering him unable to fight.

A monster who could fight Kuzan for ten days and ten nights was defeated by Martin so easily. Even Martin himself didn't know how strong he really was now.

Seeing that Sakassky had been hit by Martin, the soldiers quickly surrounded him, handcuffed him with sea stone handcuffs, and then brought him in front of Martin.

"Akainu, how about it? Are you convinced now?" Martin stared at Sakazuki with disdain. The admiral he used to fear was now his prisoner.

"Bah! What's there to be proud of? If you've got the guts, kill me!" Sakazuki glared and roared.

“Kill you? How could that be? You are a Navy Admiral. How could I kill a Navy Admiral so easily?” Martin smiled mysteriously.

Seeing Martin like this, Sakazuki felt an even more terrifying feeling well up inside him, as if something horrific was about to happen.

After Martin finished his battle, fighting raged on in other parts of Gaya Island, with soldiers shouting slogans.

Surrender and you will not be killed!

Surrender and you will not be killed!

.....................

The Allied soldiers, their army collapsing like a house of cards, saw no hope of victory and one by one discarded their weapons, raising their hands high, waiting to be incorporated into the Temple Warriors' ranks.

The battles of Enel and the other legendary figures were nearly over, and the outcome was unsurprisingly a resounding victory for the Temple of Good and Evil. In the world of One Piece, once you reach a certain level of strength, it becomes very difficult to increase it further. Therefore, while there are many powerful monsters, truly strong individuals become increasingly rare, almost like phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

The main problem is that during cultivation, many people sustained hidden injuries, which eventually limited their growth in strength.

In recent years, Martin has taught his body-conditioning boxing techniques to the several legendary figures, enabling them to improve their physical condition and break free from physical limitations. Their individual strengths have all improved dramatically, reaching the level of a general.

What particularly caught Martin's attention was Law's battle. There was a person on the battlefield who was fighting Law to a standstill. He had good Armament Haki and Observation Haki, but he was wearing a cloak, so Martin couldn't recognize him at first.

After exchanging blows with the mysterious man, Luo jumped away.

"Sneaky thieves, yet they dare not show their true faces." Luo gripped his demon sword, Oni-Ku, and then activated his Devil Fruit power.

"ROOM Scan!"

The mysterious man on the other side immediately became wary. He had just witnessed the power of this move. When the soldiers were enveloped by this strange circle, their limbs were separated one by one. What was even more terrifying was that not a drop of blood was shed. The people were still alive but unable to move.

Suddenly, the mysterious man felt a chill, his cloak disappeared, and a leaf appeared on his head. What was going on?

"Haha, now let me see who you really are?" Luo was holding a cloak in his hand at some point, and judging from the style of the cloak, it belonged to the mysterious person from before.

Although Law activated his Devil Fruit ability, it was different from before. At first, he used ROOM: Slaughterhouse. Slaughterhouse can cut objects or creatures into several pieces and then recombine them within his control. The separated creatures will not die, feel pain, or bleed.

What looked the same as before was actually ROOM Scan. It first created a huge dome-shaped space, resembling a slaughterhouse, and then sensed the target object within the space. Finally, it used its ability to teleport the specified item within the space to its own hands, all so that it could see the other person's cloak and clearly identify who was on the other side.

After receiving the cloak, Luo smiled and looked at the other person. The person opposite him was wearing a top hat with goggles, had wavy short golden hair, a burn scar on his left eye, and a confident smile on his face, as if he was not worried about being defeated at all.

"It's Sabo! What? The Revolutionary Army also wants our Temple of Good and Evil destroyed, and they actually sent out their second-in-command!"

After the mysterious man was exposed to the sunlight, Martin recognized him at a glance. He was Sabo, the chief of staff of the Revolutionary Army and Dragon's apprentice. However, what Martin couldn't understand was that he seemed to have no conflict with the Revolutionary Army, and their goals were the same: to change this corrupt society.

"Who are you? Is it alright now?" Luo asked with a smile, toying with the cloak in his hand.

"Is that necessary? Just know that I am your enemy now!"

Sabo didn't want to expose himself. When Dragon sent him to participate in this operation, he had instructed him not to reveal that he was a member of the Revolutionary Army.

The Revolutionary Army had extensive business dealings with the Temple of Good and Evil, purchasing everything from weapons to food from the temple. Martin even gave them the most favorable prices, considering the Revolutionary Army's efforts to bring happiness and benefits to the people.

Although Sabo didn't understand why his master had agreed to participate in this operation, he still carried out the order diligently, believing that his master must have had a deeper meaning. However, what he didn't expect was that the combined attack on the Temple of Good and Evil by so many forces would end in a dismal failure.

"Dragon Hook Claw!"

Sabo unleashed his master Dragon's signature move, the Dragon Claw, and quickly infused it with Armament Haki, causing his jet-black fist to begin glowing.

"clang!"

Law didn't dare to be careless either. He threw down his cloak and used the demon sword Kiku, which was imbued with Armament Haki, to block Sabo's Dragon Claw. The two attacks collided, producing a metallic clang.

"Dragon's Breath!"

After his attack was blocked, Sabo pressed his hand down on the ground. The moment his hand touched the ground, he slammed his fist into it, causing the ground to crack around him. Finally, the power that had surged into the ground burst out in one breath, like the breath of a dragon, destroying the entire ground and creating a huge smoke and explosion.

Caught off guard by Sabo's attack, Luo quickly retreated, using his hands to block the flying rocks. The smoke further obscured his vision, making it impossible for him to see anything.

Sabo saw the smoke billowing up and immediately retreated in the opposite direction. However, the smoke and the attack effect were not as perfect as he had imagined. The smoke and explosions were too great and could not hold off Luo for long.

Sabo had no idea that the entire Gaya Island had been reinforced, making it far more sturdy than any other island.

When Martin saw Sabo escape, he thought to himself, "As expected of the Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army, he even knows how to use combat skills to create chaos and then escape. But it's not as easy as you think. Just because I, the Temple of Good and Evil, am easy to bully?"

Sabo kept looking back at the spot where he had used Dragon's Breath; the smoke was thinning and would soon disappear completely.

"Oh!"

Sabo suddenly felt a kick in his body, and then he was sent flying back to where he had been, falling into the pit he had created with his dragon breath.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Sabo coughed incessantly, his heart filled with terror. He hadn't even noticed the sudden attack, which was unbelievable; even his master, Dragon, hadn't known.

As the smoke cleared, Luo finally saw his opponent lying in the pit, defeated and staring at Martin in disbelief.

"God King, what brings you here!"

Luo found Martin standing at the edge of the pit and immediately bowed.

"Law, you really need to practice your Observation Haki, otherwise you won't even know when the enemy has run away."

Martin looked at Law and smiled, saying that he didn't know if it was because of the Devil Fruit, but Law had not yet awakened Observation Haki and could only sense things through the fruit's ability.

Luo scratched his head and said, "I understand, God King. I will definitely work hard from now on."

"Trying to run away!"

While Martin and Ro were talking, Sabo tried to sneak away, but Martin discovered him again.

"Oh!"

Sabo, who had just jumped out of the pit, lay back down and slammed hard on the ground. He looked extremely disheveled, his hat had flown off and was nowhere to be seen, and a scar on his face was particularly noticeable.

"Damn it, how can he be so strong?" Sabo muttered in disbelief.

"What a pity, such a handsome man, turned out like this, it's such a shame." Martin squatted down and looked at Sabo's face.

After Martin finished speaking, Sabo awkwardly touched his face. The scar on his face was his eternal pain. Every time he asked his master how he got the scar, his master would tell him when he became stronger. So he would practice desperately and ask again after he became stronger, but the result was still the same. To this day, his master still hadn't told him.

"You know where the scar on my face came from, right?" Sabo suddenly grabbed Martin's clothes and asked. The scar on his face was not only related to who his enemy was, but also to his past, who he really was and where he came from.

"Snapped!"

Martin slapped Sabo's hand away and then said, "Why should I tell you? Who are you to me? Just stay put and I'll have someone take you back later."

"I……"

Sabo didn't understand what he was talking about. He was there to attack the Temple of Good and Evil, and was Martin's enemy. How could he possibly tell me?

"and many more!"

Sabo suddenly remembered Martin's words, what did he mean by "wait obediently, I'll have someone take you back later"? Did he know who I was? Right, he knows my past, there's no reason he wouldn't know who I am, wait a minute! If he knows who I am, why did my master tell me to keep it a secret? Sabo was completely confused.

"You know who I am!"

"Of course I know who you are, otherwise why would I be so easy to talk to? I not only know who you are, but also your past and future. And who am I? I am the God-King of the Temple of Good and Evil..." Martin said, and started to put on his usual act again.

"Please don't tell my master. I came here on my own. My master doesn't know. If he finds out, he'll definitely beat me to death!" Sabo suddenly pleaded.

Sabo grabbed Martin's leg, feigning a pitiful look, inwardly praising his quick wit; he was truly clever.

"Me? I have such a good relationship with your revolutionary army, how could the dragon have gone mad and come to attack me? It turns out you acted on your own initiative."

Martin seemed to suddenly realize something and said, "How could he possibly believe Sabo's words? How could the Revolutionary Army's second-in-command's whereabouts be without Dragon's consent? You know, Dragon is a hidden figure, and the outside world basically doesn't know about Sabo's existence. Otherwise, Luffy and Ace in the original story wouldn't have been unaware that Sabo wasn't dead."

"However, I still have to say hello to Long. I have such a good relationship with Long, and his apprentice is visiting my territory. I must do my best to be a good host." Martin said, taking out a Den Den Mushi.

Baldigolong rested his chin on his hand, a Den Den Mushi (snail phone) in front of him, waiting for a call—a very important call, one that concerned his career.

Now he understood what Martin meant when he told him, what he meant by saying that he was too unprofessional in revolution. Thinking of this, Long shook his head.

As long as the Temple of Good and Evil is gone, my revolutionary cause can continue. Ever since Martin created the Temple of Good and Evil, Dragon suddenly realized that the soil for the development of his revolutionary army was gone.

Whenever people suffer hardship, their first thought is of the Temple of Good and Evil. They go to the Temple of Good and Evil when they have no food, when they are sick, when they are bullied by nobles—they go to the Temple of Good and Evil for everything. What's the point of having a revolutionary army then? As a result, the number of revolutionary army members has actually decreased slightly compared to a few years ago, mainly because they can't recruit enough people; no one is willing to take up arms and fight to the death.

Just as Dragon was deep in thought, a Den Den Mushi suddenly rang. The sound excited Dragon. Could it be that the World Government had succeeded and Sabo had come to inform him?

Dragon suddenly picked up the receiver, but the Den Den Mushi was silent. It turned out that it wasn't the Den Den Mushi that was supposed to be communicating with Sabo that had rung.

Dragon opened the drawer, and inside was a Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scooter) that kept ringing. This was the same Den Den Mushi that he had been using to contact Martin.

Why would Martin call me at this time? Does he want me to send people to support him? Very likely. With so many forces attacking him, even our revolutionary army can't withstand it.

Dragon hesitated, unsure whether to answer or not. What should he do? But what if the group from the World Government failed? After much deliberation, Dragon picked up the microphone.

Seeing that the call had connected, Martin was about to say a few words when Sabo leaned over the Den Den Mushi and spoke first, beating Martin to it.

"Master! Master, it's me, Sabo. I'm sorry I didn't listen to you and secretly joined their operation. Please don't kill me!" Sabo cried out in a heart-wrenching, pitiful voice, as if Long Zheng were about to kill him.

Dragon was stunned for a moment when he heard Sabo's shout, then immediately realized that the World Government's plan must have failed, Sabo had been captured by Martin, and Martin had even recognized him.

"You bastard, didn't I warn you that if you dared to get involved in this, I would kill you? Did you think I was joking? Those people think they can fight against Lord Martin? That's just wishful thinking. Don't they know what kind of organization the Temple of Good and Evil is? Do they think just anyone can infiltrate it?"

Dragon's words were so confident, and Sabo kept repeating them endlessly, that Martin almost believed them.

"Master, Master, I know I was wrong, please forgive me! I'll never do it again, I promise I'll stay at the base and never go anywhere else..."

Sabo also began to sincerely repent and made various promises to Dragon. His attitude was so upright and his repentance so sincere that Martin almost believed him.
