I guarded Impel Down for a hundred years in the pirate world.

"No pressure, Grandma Mia."

Lingling's voice choked with emotion as she said, "I can do it! That cosmic mink said there are treasures and Devil Fruits in the universe that can extend lifespan. I will definitely find them, absolutely!"

Mia raised her hand.

Lingling bent down deeply and brought her head close.

Reluctant to part, saying goodbye, tears streaming down her face. Mia looked at Tengetsu and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Toki."

Tengetsu walked over with some sadness.

"Grandma Mia, see you in fifty years."

This was Lingling's original idea: to have Tenzuki use his Devil Fruit powers to send Mia fifty years into the future, buying them fifty years to search for a way to extend their lifespan in the starry sky!

"Well, see you in fifty years, Shi, Lingling, Bajin." Mia smiled kindly as she bid them farewell one by one, finally fixing her gaze on Figo, who had stepped back a few paces.

Figo said, "See you in fifty years."

"Let's begin, Shi."

Tengetsu stretched out her arms, trembling.

A dazzling light emanated from her hand, enveloping Mia.

Lingling was a little afraid to look, and she turned her head to the side to wipe away her tears, sobbing intermittently.

Fifty years is too long. No one knows what will happen, or whether we will be able to reunite after fifty years. No one can say for sure.

However, if the time frame is too short, it might not be enough, and more unexpected events might occur. Fifty years is the maximum time frame that Tianyueshi can accurately achieve.

“Don’t worry, Lingling, this farewell today will not be a final goodbye,” Figo said firmly.

“…Yes!” Lingling nodded repeatedly.

The light enveloping Mia grew brighter and more magical. As the power of time began to propel her forward, Mia raised her arm, waved to the people in the room, and smiled goodbye.

See you in fifty years.

See you in fifty years.

Swah——

The elderly man in the hospital bed disappeared.

"Waaah..." Lingling burst into tears, Tian Yueshi slumped onto the bed, and Ba Jin also pursed his lips slightly.

Figo remained silent for a moment, then turned and pushed open the door.

In the corridor, Steel Bone Kong also witnessed all of this, his expression somewhat dejected.

"Uncle Figo, will we meet again?"

“Ah, it’s just a temporary separation.” Figo patted his shoulder lightly. “Let’s go. A new era is waiting for us to begin.”

Chapter 143 Announcement and Shock

Looulan Island, the largest island in the New World.

For the previous 20 years, this place had served as the headquarters of the Rocks Pirates.

Because of the 'arrest' of Rocks Pirates' high-ranking members such as Rocks and Chrissy, most of the leaderless Rocks Pirates members have gathered on this island for more than a month.

But with even the captains captured, the future of being a pirate was clearly bleak. These pirates were somewhat lost, unsure whether to disband and change careers or to choose a new leader.

Fortunately, Rocks had a son.

Although he was only seven years old and did not usually travel with the ship, living quietly with his mother, he had some of his father's demeanor. When Rocks' loyal subordinates found him, he took on the role of 'young master' without any fear and temporarily led these pirates. His mother was not weak either and was able to protect him, making his position as young master secure.

But he was only a seven-year-old child.

As time went by, the pressure he felt grew, especially in the last few days, when marines came to the island and set up recording Den Den Mushi (snail phone) playback devices, and a rumor gradually spread among the pirates.

"I remember the last time... the Marines set up a screen like this was 20 years ago, when the King of the World presided over the execution of the Celestial Dragons."

"That's right, could this be..."

"Could it be that Boss Lox and his group..."

The 7-year-old boy silently endured the tension until the eve of the viewing time announced by the Marine, when good news suddenly arrived.

"The Whitebearded Boss?!"

"You're alright?! That's great!"

"How is Boss Rocks? Has he really been captured by the King of the World?!"

The little boy ran out quickly and, sure enough, saw the tall, familiar figure: "Whitebeard!"

Upon seeing him after being released, Whitebeard burst into laughter: "Oh? It's Crocodile, you brat. Have you been crying from fear all this time?"

"You're the one crying! Where's my dad? Why are you all alone?"

"Kuralala, you've certainly matured a bit. For a seven-year-old brat, Boss Rocks is really ruthless." Whitebeard laughed, "Boss Rocks is fine, everyone is fine, but there are going to be some new changes on the high seas."

He placed his large hand on Crocodile's head and said to everyone, "From now on, we will no longer be pirates!"

"what?!"

"Could it be..."

"Don't make wild guesses. We're all family. Let's wait for the King of the World, Gaston Figo, to speak," Whitebeard reassured the crowd, gesturing to the distant plaza screen.

The pirates looked at each other, wondering what the King of the World was up to this time.

They waited anxiously for the screen to light up.

What appeared on the screen, however, was not Figo's towering figure, but a short, middle-aged man, about 1.56 meters tall, exuding an air of scholarly refinement. As if aware that countless islands and countless gazes were focused on him, he felt both nervous and strangely excited.

He addressed everyone: “Hello, everyone. I am Kuroha, a scholar from Ohara in the West Sea and an expert in ancient scripts. Seventeen years ago, I had the privilege of accompanying the King of the World to the final island of the New World and witnessing the truth of history.”

"The truth of the blank century of history more than 760 years ago! A buried kingdom of gods, a race created and destroyed, the origin of the Celestial Dragons, and everything!"

The final island has been found?

A blank history?

Crocodile, a mere child, seemed to understand the awe and wonder, while the older, more experienced people held their breath and pricked up their ears.

Neptune of Dragon Palace, Dr. Doriel, the 110-year-old physician of Drum Kingdom, the newly appointed, robust village chief of Windmill Village in the East Sea, Ohara Olivia, who has grown into a young woman, and the kings of a host of allied nations...

"The story begins around 1100. At that time, some angels who possessed the ability to navigate between stars lived on the moon. They descended upon the starry sea and brought..."

As soon as the words 'Star Trek' appeared, the whole world fell silent!

Aliens really exist?!

Watching the broadcast from Marine Headquarters, Barbani murmured, "It's started. To announce it directly like this? As expected of the King of Physique, he really... has guts."

……

Meanwhile, deep within the starry sky.

Zouwuxing of the Fur Tribe.

Harper, the Shar Pei king who had just returned, murmured, "Have we lost contact with Barbani and the others? The last message they sent back was that they encountered space pirates?"

"A trap? How unfortunate."

He looked up at the sky, then suddenly reached out and made a pulling motion, as if he were pulling at the sky. After a while, the old dog frowned, as if he was puzzled.

"They don't seem to be space pirates?"

"The fate of the fur tribe..."

……

Kuroha: "They're not space pirates, but the Mink Tribe from the planet Zou. They're carrying out a demon liberation plan to rebel against the rule of the Celestial Dragons..."

Tianlong Star, Temple of the Gods.

Seven mysterious figures gathered together.

"What's going on, Second Divine General? What happened that requires us to be summoned?"

"Sornus heard some strange noises, and it seems that something ominous is about to happen. Gentlemen, please pay more attention to everything in the starry sky... After all, that day is getting closer and closer."

……

Kuroha: "This is the origin of Devil Fruits. The Devil race is a race that has been destined for misfortune since its inception, and the progenitor of the Devil race, Im, is the root of everything that followed!"

In the starry sky, the second progenitor of the demon race, with a pair of purple horns growing from his forehead, was traversing rapidly. A ferocious smile curled at the corner of his mouth. He turned around and clashed with the third Celestial Dragon, giving him a provocative look before disappearing into a nearby planet ruled by the Celestial Dragons.

The third general, with a gloomy face, did not pursue further.

……

Kuroha: "The great kingdom has since crumbled. Apart from the Nefit family ancestors of Alabasta, the other 19 kings somewhat underestimated Im's malice, and under Im's influence..."

"Until 20 years ago, when the King of the World personally came to the Holy Land, killed Im, and dismantled the Celestial Dragons' rule, the light of justice finally shone upon this land!"

Laiboll Star.

His body was completely shrouded in a black robe. King Raibur floated up and down in mid-air, his hand stroking and tracing a crystal ball.

The image gradually appeared inside the crystal ball.

There are only two words in the picture.

"justice?"

"What do you mean?"

……

The planets of Basolfei, Hulunbei, and Taseli, all possessing precognitive abilities, sensed something almost simultaneously.

While Qinghai is reeling from historical events.

Even the starry sky is trembling!

Chapter 144 Figo's Speech

Seventeen years is enough time to draft countless times and organize that period of history a hundred times.

Although nervous, Kuloha remained clear-headed and successfully revealed everything to all the people of Qinghai.

The world fell silent for a moment.
