Marineford War: I Will Stand in the Sky

Vice Admiral Garp and Vice Admiral Tsuru, in particular, wished they could tear Yann to pieces on the spot.

However, Charlotte Linlin, who had been continuously suppressed by Vice Admiral Garp, had unknowingly swelled to more than half her initial size, and the increase in strength was even more exaggerated.

While Vice Admiral Garp was distracted by Yann, Charlotte Linlin's grown hand grabbed him.

"Crack crack crack..."

The immense brute force that Garp had anticipated was visibly crushing his almost materialized Armament Haki, causing his bones to creak and groan, and he let out his first scream.

However, even without Vice Admiral Garp's involvement, and disregarding the fact that Whitebeard and Ace had reunited, Sakazuki, Kuzan, Vice Admiral Tsuru, and Chief Instructor Zephyr, the four true top-tier Marines, all headed straight for the execution platform.

Tefimo Yaun!

This is the most heinous and terrifying traitor in the history of the Navy, and he must be killed on the spot!

However, to the surprise of the naval high command, and even more so to the surprise of all the people on the entire sea, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, who had not made a move since the start of the Marineford War, suddenly stood up from their seats and... blocked the naval high command's path.

Immediately, the expressions of these high-ranking naval officers changed drastically, and they subconsciously questioned them.

"What...do you mean?"

"Do you also intend to betray the Navy and the World Government? Do you intend to be stripped of your Shichibukai titles?"

Get out of the way!!!

Faced with the extremely grim rebukes and threats from the Navy's high command, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, who were usually in great internal conflict, moved and looked remarkably uniform, showing no intention of backing down.

Seeing this, Vice Admiral Tsuru spoke again. "How did Yan bribe you to the point that you even disregard your own country? Don't you know the consequences of betraying the World Government?"

"Vice Admiral Tsuru, what nonsense are you talking about? I am your husband's legal wife. What makes you have the misconception that I would be on the side of the World Government?"

Hancock answered arrogantly and disdainfully, her radiant appearance a far cry from her previous sorrowful and gloomy demeanor.

Yamato, not to be outdone, continued.

"I must say, your navy's reaction was far too slow. I have always been Lord Aon's man, and even joining the so-called 'Seven Warlords of the Sea' was merely to obey Lord Aon's orders."

Tiger, arms crossed, answered directly, "Fishman Island will stand with Lord Arne!"

Kuma, who has always been the most compliant with the World Government, spoke succinctly: "I hereby declare that the Kingdom of Sorbet will relinquish its title as a 'World Member State'."

Upon hearing this, even the calm and wise Lieutenant General He felt his mind go blank, completely bewildered as to why this situation had occurred.

Hancock and Yamato are somewhat understandable, but Tiger and Kuma are practically declaring their countries' hostility towards the World Government. Are they crazy?

Finally, Lieutenant General Tsuru couldn't help but look at Corazon, who also carried the burden of his country and had repeatedly revealed that his greatest weakness was the Kingdom of Dressrosa.

At this moment, Corazon no longer displayed the manic and evil demeanor he had deliberately projected in the past; instead, he answered somewhat embarrassedly.

"I'm sorry, Vice Admiral Tsuru, since that idiot Yan is determined to be an enemy of the World Government, then as his older brother, I have no choice but to get involved."

"Brother...?"

Upon hearing this self-proclaimed identity, Lieutenant General Tsuru immediately understood that Corazon had been in league with Yann from the very beginning, and that the hatred and conflict they had expressed for more than ten years were all fake!

In other words, Terfim Yarn had been planning this for at least a decade!

At this moment, even Lieutenant General Tsuru felt a chill run down his spine and his face turned pale!

What kind of terrifying man could have started planning such a massive scheme more than a decade ago? And how could such a man, wearing a mask of deception, have risen step by step to the lofty position of naval hero, even nearly becoming a naval admiral?!

Lieutenant General Tsuru suddenly looked up at Arn on the execution platform not far away and questioned, "Arn, what exactly do you want to do?!"

Faced with Lieutenant General Tsuru's questioning, and at the same time, feeling that the brief buffer time given to him was enough for the incident at Marineford to attract more attention to him.

Slowly, Yann's figure floated from the execution platform into the air. He then casually threw away his large black-rimmed glasses, swept his unkempt bangs upwards, and combed all his hair back.

With a small gesture, the image of Yann that appeared before the world was no longer that of a middle-aged man exuding a gentle temperament, but a man with sharp, calm eyes and an extremely cold and arrogant face, a king who seemed to be looking down on all things!

"It's nothing, it's just that the throne is too boring with no one on it..."

"Therefore, the eight-hundred-year history of the World Government's throne being empty is about to come to an end. From now on... I will stand in the heavens!"

[Chapter 810. The Most Evil and Greatest Rebellion in History]

At that moment, the world fell silent, but Yann's words kept echoing in the minds of countless people!

'The history of the World Government's throne being empty... is almost over!'

From this day forward, I will stand in the heavens!

This sentence spread throughout the world with the projection of the Den Den Mushi, reaching the ears of more than 70% of the people across the ocean, causing countless people to feel their ears ringing inexplicably and their eyes to widen in shock!

This is... such domineering power, and such arrogance!

That former "Marine Hero" Tefier Yann, what was he thinking about? Was he merely a Pirate King? Or was he pursuing the so-called "ONE PIECE"?

He actually wants to sit on the throne of the World Government; he wants to become... the true king of this sea??

This man's ambition is simply unimaginable!

Meanwhile, the royal families and nobles of the world's participating nations, who were also intently watching the live stream, were all furious!

After all, as royalty and nobles who stand above countless people, most of them harbor a twisted arrogance in their hearts. The main reason they are willing to join the World Government as a member state, besides the numerous tangible benefits, is that the World Government does not have a king on the surface!

The throne of the World Government... is vacant!

How can we allow another king to appear above the king?

Therefore, Yann's remarks, which were almost tantamount to his intention to sit on the throne, were in fact shaking the very foundation of the correctness of countless royal families who joined the world!

As for the power struggles above the Holy Land of Mary Geoise...

"boom!"

As Yann's outrageous remarks echoed across the live stream, the teacups held by several of the Five Elders with elegant composure were instantly crushed into countless pieces.

It was at this moment that there was a knock on the door of the room where the power was concentrated.

"Dongdong..."

"Come in!"

As a CP0 member pushed open the door to the Chamber of Power, what he saw was the barely suppressed rage on the faces of the Five Elders.

"Gurgle~"

The CP0 member, witnessing the Five Elders, who wielded the highest power, lose their composure for the first time, couldn't help but swallow hard. However, since the situation he needed to report was quite relevant, he quickly spoke up.

"My Lord Five Elders, the Kingdoms of Sloka, Chesg, Karibetas, and Shamsarivo have all reported unidentified groups attacking their borders and are requesting assistance."

Upon hearing this, the Five Elders almost instinctively showed expressions of annoyance and impatience.

Again... these kinds of trivial matters!

Not every kingdom strives to build up its military and develop its national strength after becoming a member state of the world. The vast majority of member states are content with enjoying life and even actively abolish a large amount of military power, relying entirely on the world government and navy for defense.

In the past, the Five Elders were naturally happy to see such things happen, and would even give special resources and rewards to kingdoms that crippled themselves.

However, this also means that if a slightly tactless pirate occasionally plunders a member country of the World Government, the member countries, either unable to resist or wanting to save face, will always request the World Government to protect them and punish the pirates who offend them.

However, the Five Elders had no time to pay attention to such trivial matters and immediately said...

"There's no time to deal with such trivial matters right now. Let the member states try to solve it themselves, or they can just ask the nearby naval bases for help."

The CP0 member instinctively opened his mouth, wanting to explain that the organizations that seemed to be attacking member states of the world were not simple, judging from the various preliminary signs gathered. However, the Five Elders' patient manner made the CP0 member wisely retreat.

Just as this CP0 member was about to retreat to the doorway...

"Wait a minute," the blond Five Elders said.

"Yes." CP0 felt a pang of anxiety, thinking that the Five Elders had changed their minds.

"Have Chief of Staff Frode come over here immediately," said the blond Elder.

"Yes."

Upon hearing this, CP0 quickly retreated.

Within the realm of power, however, a somber atmosphere persisted.

The Five Elders were not concerned with the trivial matter reported by the CP0 member, but rather with the man standing in mid-air on the live stream, his eyes calm and arrogant.

Tefimo Yaun!

"How dare you!!"

Even the usually mild-mannered Five Elders with long hair could not suppress their anger and said...

"What's even more troublesome is, what exactly are those idiots in the Navy doing? Why don't they cut off the live broadcast? Not only are they broadcasting the Navy's various inappropriate words and actions to the whole world, but they're even letting these outrageous remarks spread throughout the entire ocean."

The old man with the mustache, who also realized the seriousness of the consequences, said.

"It's unimaginable that with the worship of those lowly people, a mere Roger could ignite the 'Great Pirate Era.' If Yann's influence were to fully erupt, wouldn't it trigger an era of rebellion against the World Government?!"

“Yarn wields immense influence within the Navy, and has secretly cultivated countless individuals. Those so-called ‘Seven Warlords of the Sea’ have likely already submitted completely to Yarn, who intends to sit on the throne. This is troublesome,” the curly-haired Five Elders added.

The withered Five Elders, gripping the "Demon Sword: First Generation Kitetsu" tightly, unconsciously tightened their grip slightly as they concluded, "This is the most heinous and greatest rebellion in history. Under no circumstances should Terfim Arne be allowed to leave Marineford alive!"

And this almost perfectly represents the common sentiment of the Five Elders at this moment!

Under no circumstances should Tefimo Yann be allowed to leave Marineford, no matter what.

Compared to Whitebeard, the so-called "strongest man in the world," or Dragon, who is like a stray dog, Tefimo Yann's threat and danger level has reached an unimaginable level.

……

In Marineford, although Arn couldn't witness everyone's reactions firsthand, his calm gaze swept downwards, and all the marines and pirates in his sight were stunned, staring at Arn in disbelief.

"That's... insane..."

"Lieutenant General Yann... no, this man Yann actually wants to challenge the World Government..."

"No, this isn't a challenge, it's a conquest! He wants to conquer the World Government! And then become the true king of this sea!!!"

Just how ambitious is this man?

……

As for the naval high command, after they realized what had happened from Yann's outrageous remarks, they were not only shocked and astonished, but also furious!

[Chapter 811. The Untouchable Temperature]

Although Lieutenant General Tsuru had already had some suspicions, he couldn't help but exclaim in shock after hearing Yann confirm the true purpose.

"Ya'en, do you think you can achieve such arrogant ideas just by being a Shichibukai? You're too naive!"

"Innocent?"
