The pinnacle of pirates begins with deceiving fate!

"You're quite thoughtful."

John smiled and then waved to indicate that the other person could leave.

The rabbit, feeling as if it had been granted a pardon, quickly slipped away in its high heels, not daring to linger for even a moment.

Staying by that man's side was too much pressure for her.

"Can't Celestial Dragons attack Celestial Dragons? Ha!" John lit a cigarette, picked up a Den Den Mushi, and dialed Somaz.

He said he would exterminate the entire family of those behind the scenes, and he was determined to do it!

Half a day later

Deep within Mary Geoise, the land of the gods.

Before the ancient, yellowed city gate, Celestial Dragons gradually gathered, gathering in small groups in the open space and whispering amongst themselves.

"Why did those guys call us here?"

"What else can we do! The appearance of those guys means something bad is going to happen, and someone is definitely going to be in trouble again."

"It wasn't me. I just came back from the lower realm and didn't do anything."

Just as the Celestial Dragons were discussing this, a huge wooden cross and a projection screen rose up in front of the open space.

The wooden cross is covered in black bloodstains, indicating that Celestial Dragons were once bound to it and tortured.

Just then, John and Somaz came in side by side, roughly pushing aside the Celestial Dragons blocking their way, and walked straight to the cross amidst a chorus of curses.

"Isn't that John St., who's returned to the Shepard family? What's he up to?"

"Hmph! This kind of guy who grew up in the lower realm has no manners whatsoever of a nobleman!"

"You rude scoundrel!"

John stood in front of the projection screen, his gaze sweeping over the Celestial Dragons present. Every Celestial Dragon who met his eyes fell silent under the pressure.

Chapter 110 Those who protect trash are worse than trash themselves!

"Everyone."

Once the room had completely quieted down, John raised his head and spoke loudly.

"As the Celestial Dragons, the 'world's nobles,' we should love one another and prioritize the interests of the group."

"But recently, some people have actually attacked their own kind for the sake of the lowly people in the lower realms. This is utterly heinous!"

Before the Celestial Dragons could even react, John snapped his fingers.

With a "snap," the projection screen behind him suddenly lit up, displaying a series of photos.

These are photos of G-10 Marines lying in pools of blood. They are skipped over one by one, finally settling on a face familiar to all the Celestial Dragons present.

He had a light gold beard, a gourd-shaped face, and forehead wrinkles.

After only a moment of stunned silence, the Celestial Dragons recognized the face.

"This is... Saint Rozwald Tobias!"

In the crowd, Tobias's eyes widened as he realized that what had happened before was not over at all.

He knew, of course, that John was the guy who had previously ordered the CP0 to capture him alive and bring him to Mary Geoise.

He also fantasized countless times in his mind about locking John up and cruelly torturing him after he became his slave.

Only in this way can one vent the resentment of not being able to win back the money that was lost.

But when he learned that John was actually a descendant of the Shepard family and had returned to the Holy Land to become a Celestial Dragon, he abandoned all his grudges.

After all, Celestial Dragons cannot attack other Celestial Dragons.

But now it seems that John has no intention of letting this end, but rather wants to take revenge on him!

"Damn it! John Saint, what do you mean by this?!"

Tobias Saint emerged from the crowd, stood before John, and angrily pointed at him.

"It was all a misunderstanding before, do you still want to hold onto it?"

"No!"

John shook his head, his gaze passing over Saint Tobias and sweeping over the group of Celestial Dragons once more.

"I just want to tell everyone that people who protect trash are worse than trash themselves!"

"But Saint Tobias, in order to protect the trash of the lower realm, actually attacked me and tried to kill me!"

"Those marines lying in pools of blood in the photo died protecting me. This is evidence that Saint Tobias wanted to kill me!"

"You fart!"

Saint Tobias panicked, his raised hand trembling as he turned to explain to the Celestial Dragons.

“I had no idea he was a Celestial Dragon. I absolutely had no intention of harming my fellow countrymen.”

"The damage has already been done, nothing you say now will make a difference!"

Immediately, a Celestial Dragon from the Izanbaron family began to stir up trouble.

He had some grudges against Tobias Saint and was determined to take revenge whenever he had the chance.

Meanwhile, on the other side, a Celestial Dragon from the Donquixote Family paused for a moment, then clenched his fist, raised his hand, and shouted.

"Yes! To dare harm one's own people is an unforgivable crime!"

He was a shill paid by Somaz, but unexpectedly someone spoke up first.

With these two leading the way, the other Celestial Dragons were also swayed and began to denounce Saint Tobias.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Somaz stepped forward at John's prompting, displaying the dignity of a member of the Knights of God.

"Vote! Raise your hand if you support the execution of Saint Tobias!"

As soon as the words were spoken, most of the Celestial Dragons present raised their hands in a clatter, while only a small number of members of the Roswald family and those with whom they had close ties tried their best to persuade everyone to calm down.

"With more than two-thirds in favor, the proposal passes; begin the executions!"

Somaz grinned menacingly, and thorny vines sprouted from his empty palm. He suddenly raised his hand and flung it toward Tobias Saint.

With a "snap," Tobias Saint's bulky robe was torn apart by sharp spikes, revealing his belly filled with fat and wrinkles.

"No! No... Ah!"

Somaz raised his hand and lashed Tobias Saint with his whip again, tearing off large chunks of flesh from the spikes, causing the latter to writhe on the ground in agony.

But the more Tobias screamed, the more excited Somaz became, and he used thorns to wrap him up and throw him onto the cross.

The thorns wrapped around Saint Tobias spread, intertwined and fixed with the cross, binding him tightly.

"Hahaha! You piece of trash, die!"

Somaz let out a morbid laugh and lashed Tobias Saint with the whip one lash after another, blood and flesh flying everywhere and bones peeking out.

Most of the Celestial Dragons present did not feel uncomfortable about this; instead, they joined in the revelry and dancing.

The small group of Roswald family members and those who were on good terms with Tobias Saint looked extremely grim, but dared not step forward to stop them.

This is the rule of the Celestial Dragons!

at the same time

Pangu City, a place of power struggles.

Four figures stood in front of two windows, gazing at the land of the gods.

“Pete Saint, your family really knows how to liven up the atmosphere. You’ve made Mary Geoise, which has been quiet for so long, lively again.”

"Environmental War God" Marcasmaz turned his head and looked at Pit Saint, who was sitting calmly on the sofa.

Piet Saint seemed oblivious to this, and picked up the newspaper on the coffee table to read.

Anyone could hear the blame in his words, so of course he wouldn't respond.

"Legal Martial God" Topman Vochuli Saint left the windowsill and returned to the sofa, both to change the subject and to get down to business, and began:

"Lord Im has taken notice of Saint John and seems to intend to make him a member of the God's Blade."

"It's been over a year since the God Valley incident. To test John Saint, let's have him choose the hunting grounds that are held every three years."

"What if John Saint remains stuck in his identity as a mortal from the lower realms and is unable to shoulder this heavy responsibility?"

"Financial God of War" Izan Baron V. Nassshuro Sei sat down on the windowsill and questioned John's "character".

Pierre Saint put down his newspaper and glanced indifferently at the assembled stars:

"That means John Saint is not worthy to become the Blade of God, and it also cuts off his future possibility of becoming a Knight of God and obtaining immortality."

"Since Saint Piet has no objections, then it's settled. Inform Saint John."

"..."

After executing his enemy, John felt refreshed and, after dismissing his tool, Somaz, he planned to go to Marineford.

To not return home in wealth and honor is like wearing fine clothes in the dark!

Right now, the only people he can boast to are those guys at Marine Headquarters.

We need to let Garp and Sengoku know what status and position really mean!

Brubru

Just as John reached the bubble elevator platform outside the holy site, the Den Den Mushi in his arms rang.

Press the answer button, and Piet Saint's voice comes through.

“John Saint, after discussing with the other five elders, I have decided to let you choose the hunting grounds every three years.”

"What do you mean?" John frowned, pretending not to understand.

My heart sank.

To be honest, he still doesn't understand the significance of the Celestial Dragons massacring a country every three years.

It's important to understand that for rulers, population is wealth, and slaughtering people means turning down money.

Are these Celestial Dragons stupid?!
