“There will be a way,” Chen Yong’an said unmoved. “Fate is not mathematics, it doesn’t have only one correct answer. This world is full of countless uncertainties and changes… Let’s wait and see whether your domination will prevail or my liberation will win.”
Upon hearing Chen Yong'an's words, Im's pupils constricted.
Under Im's powerful Observation Haki, the Alabasta people who were shrouded in her pentagram and should have been under her control by her Black Transformation remained completely unchanged!
The skill that had always worked failed for the first time on Alabasta, causing Im to become even more defensive and roar, "What have you done?!"
Chen Yong'an did not answer; he would not tell Im that he had already incorporated the developed "Drum of Liberation" into the entire Alabasta water supply system.
—It can make people immune to all Devil Fruit abilities, but it will not make the Devil Fruit user lose their own ability.
This is Chen Yong'an's trump card to deal with Im!
Driven by fear and rage, Im completely lost his mind and used the power of the Arrow-Arrow Fruit to create countless black arrows that hurtled towards Chen Yong'an with a whooshing sound!
Faced with the overwhelming attack, the phantom of Ra met it head-on with its massive fist!
With the heat of the sun, it completely melted away all the darkness!
Until the massive fist stopped less than a meter away from Im!
Or perhaps "military" would be a more accurate description.
As death loomed, Im escaped Junko's body and fled back to the sacred land of Mary Geoise, located at the top of the Red Line.
Still shaken, trembling with fear.
Unlike the small-scale conflicts that broke out before due to differences in ideology, this time Im personally came to cause trouble and even attempted to transform the ordinary people of the rapeseed flower into mindless demons, fundamentally destroying Alabasta. Therefore, Chen Yong'an only has one choice left: to launch a full-scale war!
The next morning, Chen Yong'an once again shocked the world with a bombshell news story!
Legend has it that the original twenty kings established the World Government and created an "empty throne" at the beginning of the old world order. This symbolized the refusal of anyone to hold sole royal power and reflected the idea that the five elders would jointly govern the world.
But now Chen Yong'an has told everyone in the world that the so-called "empty throne" actually has an owner!
Moreover, the owner of this throne, like the Five Elders, appears before the world as a demon!
Against the backdrop of Im, the master of the old world with a demonic appearance, Chen Yong'an, radiating the brilliance of the sun and towering tall and majestic, once again broke through the approval rating and his reputation reached an unprecedented peak!
In addition to informing the world about Im, the demon who sits on an empty throne and rules the world, Chen Yong'an also conveyed another important message.
Write two words on an entire page of the newspaper: "Go to war!"
The war between the old and new orders has officially begun!
Chapter 810: The Holy Land Ultimately Turns into Wasteland
There was absolutely no suspense in this war.
Warfare is about logistics, productivity, technology, and the will of soldiers.
And these are things that the old, cannibalistic order did not possess.
While the warriors of the old order were forced to go to the front lines like pigs, their families were squeezed dry by the noble lords to support their nightly revelry and extravagance in the castle.
While the warriors of the old order endured the slow approach of sailboats propelled by the wind to the enemy, the steel behemoths of the new order were already unleashing their powerful firepower.
While the warriors of the Old Order were still troubled by the power of flintlock muskets, their reloading speed, and the gunpowder getting wet, the metal bullets of the New Order had already blown their skulls off.
Not to mention the soldiers' will. The gap between the two was even greater than their equipment. A group of soldiers forced to step onto the battlefield were utterly vulnerable in front of another group of soldiers who knew why they were fighting, who they were fighting for, and who were full of fighting spirit!
In less than a month since the start of the war, nearly half of the countries under the old order have been liberated!
The nobles who lost their country could only pack up their treasures and escape by ship before the new order arrived, seeking refuge in Mary Geoise, the land they longed for!
One of the kingdoms that upholds the old order, the ship of the Kingdom of Goa from the East Sea, the fleeing King Sterry looked at the red high wall in front of him and couldn't help but burst into tears.
During this period, Listley experienced the highs and lows of life.
This once high-ranking and carefree king was overthrown at the beginning of the war due to the uprising of his people and army, and could only flee the Kingdom of Goa by ship with his treasures and his queen.
On his escape, he "luckily" encountered the old navy who came to his rescue. He happily approached the old navy, hoping to get their help to reclaim the country for him.
As a result, the country not only failed to reclaim the treasure, but his wealth was also looted.
After all, those who could remain in the old navy were either scum and degenerates within the navy or pirates who joined the navy for the purpose of legally raping and plundering.
When you come across this piece of fat meat that even the country has lost, how can you not take a bite?
Realizing that the navy of today is no longer the navy of the past, King Sterry had no choice but to obediently offer up his treasures and food. In order to save his own life, he even offered up his beloved queen without hesitation.
Unfortunately, this group of sailors had no interest in women; what they preferred were delicate-skinned nobles like King Sterry.
In short, after King Stryker surrendered everything, the sailors, out of consideration for their "connection," agreed to escort them to Mary Geoise.
As for obtaining food and fresh water during the voyage, King Sterry would have to find his own way to do so.
So after a series of unpleasant sea voyages, King Stry finally arrived at his destination.
Or rather, the destination is near.
The next step is to set foot on the Red Earth and enter the safest place in the world, the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.
King Sterry never imagined he would be refused entry to Mary Geoise, after all, the Five Elders and Lord Im had promised that as long as they stood with the World Government and fought for them, they, as kings, could become noble Celestial Dragons and reside in Mary Geoise.
Now that he has fought so hard that even the Kingdom of Goa has been lost, who is more qualified to enter Mary Geoise than him?
He vowed that once he entered Mary Geoise and became a high-ranking Celestial Dragon, he would make those Marines who bullied him pay a heavy price!
With this in mind, King Sterry, escorted by the navy, arrived at the cable car station beneath the Red Line that leads to the Holy Land, and submitted a request to enter Mary Geoise in his capacity as the King of Goa.
Then King Sterry, who was expecting to become a Celestial Dragon, received a rather ruthless reply.
King Stryker, who has lost his country, is a disgrace to the World Government. He is forbidden from entering the Holy Land of Mary Geoise!
This was a devastating blow to King Sterry. Before he could even ask why, he was violently expelled by World Government agents and driven back to the sea.
The ships, carried by the sea breeze, drifted further and further away from the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.
Once the Red Line had almost disappeared from sight, King Sterry, who had been beaten black and blue by World Government agents, frantically scrambled to his feet from the deck, leaned against the railing, and desperately shouted in the direction of Mary Geoise, "I paid you so much Celestial Gold, I lost my entire country because of you, you can't do this to me!!"
I am the one who should be a Celestial Dragon!
There was no reply, only the sound of the sea breeze rustling the sails and the lingering pain from last night's lovemaking.
At this moment, King Sterry finally broke down, tears and snot streaming down his face. He raised his middle finger at the Holy Land of Mary Geoise and roared, "Whether they're Celestial Dragons or Im, they all deserve to die!"
As King Sterry roared in anger, a sharp arrow streaked across the sky thousands of meters above. Then, the next moment, the location of the Holy Land Mary Geoise erupted with a sun-like brilliance and terrifying black and red lightning that made one's heart tremble. A huge mushroom cloud rose up!
The sudden turn of events startled King Sterry, who crouched on the deck. After a few moments, he suddenly realized something, raised his middle finger at Mary Geoise again, and shouted with all his might, "Die, die, die!!"
As King Sterry finished speaking, several more arrows streaked across the sky and landed once again at the location of the Holy Land Mary Geoise, causing huge mushroom clouds to rise again!
In the end, even huge meteorites fell from the sky one after another, crashing onto the red earth continent, and even the ocean trembled!
This is Chen Yong'an's first and last time entering the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.
Mary Geoise, which was built by sucking blood from all over the world, has lost its former glory. Now, all that appears in Chen Yong'an's eyes is a wasteland.
Chen Yong'an destroyed Mary Geoise with a groundbreaking strategic weapon.
In this era lacking anti-aircraft capabilities and with a medieval understanding of warfare, missiles were simply beyond the Celestial Dragons' ability to stop!
No matter how powerful the strength Im gathers in this "last fortress" is, it can only obediently swallow this supersonic, beyond-visual-range attack!
In the first round of attacks, Chen Yong'an unleashed the Conqueror's Haki he had accumulated over the past six months. Even if a strong individual managed to intercept the missile, they would be stunned and disoriented by his terrifying Conqueror's Haki, or even lose consciousness. (The rest of the text appears to be unrelated and possibly machine-generated gibberish.)
The second wave of attacks contained the power of the sea, and the explosion spread to form a thick cloud of seastone in Mary Geoise, rendering all the Devil Fruit users unable to move.
The following rounds of attacks were pure firepower coverage, with nearly a hundred missiles raining down on Mary Geoise, covering every inch of its land. Occasionally, a few terrifying Conqueror's Haki warheads would be mixed in, blasting Mary Geoise to smithereens!
After the missiles finished detonating, they continued to bombard meteorites. Then the planes flew a few more times to check for any areas that hadn't been destroyed, and dropped a few bombs to finish them off.
Wearing protective gear, Chen Yong'an etched the wasteland before him into his mind and said, "Let's go see if there are any survivors."
Chen Yong'an, along with 2B and Eve, traversed this wasteland, passing through massive meteorite craters, until they arrived at the site of the former Mary Geoise palace.
In the ruins, a shapeless corpse wearing a charred crown sat on a throne reduced to charcoal.
Im protected this meaningless throne until his death.
No one survived in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.
Chapter 811: The Free World
After a few months of recuperation following the war, representatives from around the world finalized the rules of the new order, signed their names on the Victory Monument, and the world ushered in a new era of development.
A new era in which a nation is its own master!
At the same time, Chen Yong'an's two ambitious plans to change the fate of the world were unanimously approved and began to be implemented gradually.
Destroy the red earth continent, and the massive project to connect the whole world!
Chen Yong'an's initial idea was to have Whitebeard use the Tremor-Tremor Fruit's power to destroy the Red Line, which would be simple and quick.
However, according to Vegapunk's calculations, if the Tremor-Tremor Fruit were to destroy the Red Line, the resulting tsunami would be enough to sweep across the planet and devastate the world's civilization!
So they had to change their approach and use large-scale engineering equipment to drill holes in the Red Earth, creating huge tunnels that would connect the four seas.
This task was assigned to the giant race.
Shanks has a very good relationship with the giants, and the giants have always wanted to abandon violence and embrace peace, so it is perfect to entrust such a huge project to them.
As for connecting the world, that was achieved through land reclamation and sand dredging.
Large-scale engineering machinery was used to "blow" up the continent that sank thousands of years ago, forming new land and a new continent.
This is an extremely large project that requires the mobilization of global resources and the cooperation of all countries. It is a massive undertaking that will take a long time to complete.
A project that concerns the fate of humanity in this world!
Although the project is massive, it will not involve the entire nation's civilian population as slaves, working day and night, as was the case with the World Government's previous bridge-building projects.
Even though the land reclamation project concerns the fate of the world, it is also a job with certain barriers to entry. It is a new profession and a part of the normal functioning of society.
This is the biggest difference between the old and new orders!
As the world entered the grand "era of massive infrastructure construction," in Wano Country, Kuri, the ruins of Goten Castle, which had been transformed into a residential area, suddenly saw five figures—four large and one small—wearing kimonos appear out of nowhere on the street.
They were somewhat bewildered when they saw the bustling streets and the passersby dressed casually with neat hairstyles.
"Is this a dream? Where am I?" The man with the samurai-style topknot looked bewildered. "Where's the castle? Where's the fire? Where's Lady Toki?!"
"Lord Hiyori!" The short, stout man in ninja attire shouted instinctively, but only drew strange looks from others.
"Wait, they're carrying samurai swords!" A passerby exclaimed in horror, "Samurai! They're samurai!"
"My God, how can there still be samurai in this country!" The stylishly dressed woman took a few steps back in disbelief. "Could it be that the samurai class has been restored?!"
"Look at their ankles! Crescent-shaped tattoos, they're remnants of the Kozuki clan!" Another passerby pointed at the ankles of the samurai. "The Kozuki clan has returned to wreak havoc on this country!"
"Police! Call the police!" The butcher in the butcher shop gripped his cleaver tightly, tensely adopting a defensive stance.
"Wait a minute, we're not bad people!"
Seeing the fear on the faces of the passersby, the tall "woman" leading the ugly child hurriedly explained loudly, "Please tell us where this is, and where Wano Country is, and we'll leave right away!"
"This is Wano Country!" the butcher shouted. "Get out of this country right now! This is not a place for you samurai to run wild!"
"Wano Country? How could this be Wano Country!"
The man with the samurai-style topknot simply didn't believe the butcher's story. In his memory, the houses in Wano Country were all low, and most people were starving and emaciated!
And what about here?
The streets are paved with smooth stone slabs, the houses are tall and exquisite, the shops are full of goods, the people are energetic, and even their clothes are without a single patch!
How could Wano Country be a place where even commoners without family crests live such a prosperous life?
"Tell me honestly, where is this place!" The man with the samurai-style topknot grabbed a passerby by the collar and shouted, "Wano Country, where exactly is it?!"
"Officer, it's them!"
The man with the samurai-style topknot turned his head and saw a group of strangely dressed people rushing towards them menacingly.
"Damn it, let's get out of here!" The man with the samurai-style topknot dropped the man he was holding and turned to flee with his companions.
But Wano Country is such a small place, even if they escape, where can they escape to?
Having finally enjoyed a few good days, the people of Wano Country, now in a new era, have long regarded the Kozuki family and the samurai class, who have ruled Wano Country for nearly a thousand years and kept it poor for nearly a thousand years, as a monstrous flood!
Within half a day, these remnants of the Kozuki family and the samurai class were apprehended in a dilapidated temple by the combined efforts of the public and the police, and imprisoned to await their fate.
This news quickly reached Runti's ears.
Upon hearing that the young boy still had the unsightly bald hairstyle of a noble child from the old Wano Country, he immediately perked up and rushed to the cell where they were being held.
In the prison cell, I saw the four adults and one child, who were bound tightly.
