With a wave of his hand, Shiki declared with unparalleled dominance:

"Do you dare swear on your decades-long belief in justice to give me a clear and genuine answer?!"

"I have no need to prove anything to pirates."

"Hahaha, so you're just too afraid to give a direct answer?!"

The golden lion laughed wildly in the sky, its hair disheveled, and the few remaining hairs danced wildly in mid-air.

"I'd bet my decades-long pirate career that Roger surrendered himself, not that he was deliberately arrested by you despicable marines as you claim!!"

"You dare to contradict me with your beliefs of justice?! Garp!!!"

Shiki's loud shout echoed throughout the entire arena.

All the naval soldiers stared in disbelief at the scene before them.

~~~~~~~~~

[Thank you so much to 'Tian Wuya' for the generous donation of 588! Thank you!!!]

365 deceived the whole world?! What a disappointment, Navy!! The strength of a legendary pirate!

Since their debut, the Golden Lion has brought them too many shocks.

From the initial island crash to the subsequent beast invasion, and now the revelation of the truth behind Roger's capture...

The naval soldiers felt that their experiences and the shock they received that day were truly extraordinary.

"Lieutenant General Garp..."

They looked blankly at Garp on the high platform, hoping that he would give them the answer they longed for in the name of justice.

however……

Amidst their incredulous gazes, Garp clenched his fists and slowly lowered his eyes.

His statement was as clear as day.

Silence is also an attitude; it represents not opposing, which is tacit agreement.

"how so?!"

Clang.

A naval soldier's weapon clattered to the ground.

At the same time, their values ​​regarding justice also crumbled.

"The Pirate King Roger wasn't captured by the Navy?! He surrendered himself?!"

On the Sabaody Archipelago, the people who had clearly witnessed the scene were in an uproar.

"How could this happen?!"

"The Navy actually deceived the whole world on something like this?!"

"How could they do such a thing? They arrested him themselves, so why lie about it?!"

"Because with this bunch of useless marines, there's no way they could capture the Pirate King. The reason they're making this claim is just to embellish their own image!"

"I figured it out a long time ago. One order from the 25 members of the Celestial Dragons and the Navy Admirals came running like mad. We basically know exactly what these Navy people are!"

"They're completely rotten; all they know how to do is fool the public!"

"Perhaps their reports of capturing numerous pirates and repelling some enemies are also false!!!"

"What a disappointment, Navy!!!"

Undoubtedly, Shiki's question, coupled with Garp's attitude, caused a huge stir throughout the Sabaody Archipelago!

Under normal circumstances, if such a thing were exposed, the public would likely complain and raise some questions.

Despite being forcibly suppressed by the Navy and the World Government, it was still easy to resolve the situation.

However, this issue is quite subtle, as it was raised in this particular context and at this particular time.

And this happened just as everyone had witnessed Roger's brilliance and was beginning to understand and even admire him.

When this dangerous war, which concerned the safety of the world and constantly tested people's nerves, broke out...

Naturally, it also ignited the discontent and anger in people's hearts.

They felt deceived, and couldn't help but wonder if the Navy, which needed to lie to the public even to capture the Pirate King, could really win this war!

The people's worries and anxieties about the war, their distrust of the navy's strength and propaganda, all turned into anger towards the navy.

He unreservedly vented his negative emotions to the navy!

As a result of these combined factors, the reputation and public perception of the navy among those watching from the Sabaody Archipelago were rapidly declining.

The island's inhabitants, in particular, suffer greatly from the persecution of the Celestial Dragons, the world's nobles.

They took this opportunity to vent their resentment towards the Celestial Dragons on the Navy, who were supposed to be their protectors!

The crowd on the island was in an uproar, their voices blaring with condemnation of the navy.

Unfortunately, this magnificent scene cannot be witnessed by those in Marineford.

Even if they could see it, Sengoku and his men couldn't do anything to these civilians, because it was indeed their navy that had acted improperly first.

To this, Link can only say he deserved it.

Yesterday's cause, today's effect.

Since you initially intended to claim the title of capturing the Pirate King, then don't be afraid of the backlash you might face today!

Everyone must pay the price for their actions; this is the most universal truth on the high seas.

"Golden Lion..."

Sengoku gritted his teeth and stared intently at the golden lion; a faint golden light could even be seen emanating from its body.

People often say that angering someone so much that it's like a Buddha being born or two ascending to heaven.

And corresponding to the title of 'Buddha' during the Warring States period, it's quite fitting~~~

Sizzle~ Sizzle!!

While Sengoku was furious, the ferocious monsters below the field continued to rage and rampage.

"Ming dog!!"

After the scalding lava burned a giant lizard to ashes, Akainu, who had arrived at the area below, walked in a certain direction without even looking up.

That area is within the territory of the Great Whirlpool Spider Pirates, and what he is looking for is the Great Whirlpool Spider, Squard.

"asshole!!"

Listening to the screams of agony below, Sengoku took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

He also knew that once the golden lion entered the arena, the situation would immediately become unpredictable.

The combined power of the Whitebeard Pirates and the Straw Hat Pirates was already enough to give the Navy a run for its money, and now they've added Shiki the Golden Lion to the mix...

"This is the Navy's home turf..."

Sengoku's face gradually turned icy cold. "I won't tolerate you pirates acting so presumptuously!!!"

He pulled out his Den Den Mushi again and ordered the person on the other end, "Move out!!!"

boom! !

In an instant, from a corner of the battlefield, a laser beam almost identical to the one used by Kizaru burst forth.

After a man wearing a red bellyband and carrying a large axe walked out at the very front, a row of people who looked exactly like the bear slowly followed behind him!

The World Government's scientific force, pacifists!!!

At this moment, I officially joined the battlefield!!

"Beep beep beep~ Swoosh!!"

As soon as the group of pacifists entered the bay, they unleashed a barrage of laser beams at the ferocious beasts brought by the golden lion.

Within a short period of time, the air above Marineford was filled with the aroma of roasted meat.

"So, these so-called ferocious beasts are completely useless!"

Looking at this scene, Link couldn't help but shake his head.

The Golden Lion spent twenty years training these seemingly ferocious and dangerous beasts using IQ, but in reality, they are not worth mentioning at all.

Let alone destroying the East China Sea, if a naval admiral were to be dispatched, or if these pacifists were to arrive, these beasts could be easily dealt with.

Even the Golden Lion wouldn't need to spend so much time and effort.

Putting aside everything else, just consider the original story: the island overrun with ferocious beasts and uninhabited where Luffy trained with Haki for two years.

Ruscaina Island, also known as the Island of Forty-Eight Seasons, has forty-eight seasons.

It is said that a kingdom existed here in ancient times, but humanity eventually lost to nature and could not survive.

The island is inhabited only by enormous, ferocious beasts; even the Nine-Headed Serpent Clan, a warrior race, is wary of them!

You should know that when Luffy and Rayleigh first arrived on the island, a bald red elephant suddenly appeared.

Luffy quickly entered Gear Second and fired a jet pistol straight at Luffy's face.

The result~~~

It was like tickling an itch; it had no effect on the red elephant at all. In fact, Luffy himself was knocked away by the red elephant.

And these are just the most common wild beasts on this island.

Those crocodiles, gorillas, lions, and the like are not only more ferocious, but also possess intelligence that is in no way inferior to that of humans.

One of the blue gorillas is considered one of the stronger creatures on the island; Luffy's Gear Fourth King Kong Gun was inspired by it.

And there is another creature covered in red fur that appears in Luffy's memories; it is arguably the most powerful creature on the island, the Great Ape King.

It put a lot of pressure on Luffy; even the King Kong Gun, which severely injured Doflamingo, couldn't cause the Great Kong any trouble!

It was precisely because of this that Luffy was able to learn the strongest Great King Kong Gun from it, forcefully suppressing Doflamingo's awakened ultimate ability, [Sixteen Sacred Bullets: God Slayer], and defeating Doflamingo, demonstrating its power!

Which of the powerful beasts on these islands isn't far more formidable than the ferocious monsters created by the Golden Lion using IQ?!

A beast bred over twenty years is not as powerful as a wild animal that naturally grows on an island in the Windless Belt...

When Link first saw this island, he suspected that Oda was using it in chapter 773 to subtly criticize Shiki...

Therefore, the Golden Lion's failure was absolutely inevitable.

However, now that Link has earnestly "explained" the principles to him, he has no idea where his future will lead him.

"Hehehehehe!!"

Seeing Garp's silent and taciturn demeanor, Shiki once again burst into laughter, almost laughing until tears streamed down his face.

"So, it's not that I look down on your navy..."

He suddenly raised his hand and roared, "It's not that your navy has anything I can respect!!!"

"Lion's Might - Earth Sweep!!!"

boom! ! !

Above the ground, the islands and fragments that had been melted by laser light and exploding magma suddenly began to float rapidly into the air!

Gradually, they formed one after another, incredibly large and ferocious lion heads.

They gazed down at each other from mid-air!

"That is……"

The navy, already shaken by the blow, trembled at the sight.

"The strength of a legendary pirate?!"

Almost overwhelming, it enveloped the sky, dominating the earth from the heavens. This superior posture perfectly matched the arrogant and domineering character of the Golden Lion!

But~

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!"

Several laser beams swiftly pierced through the lion heads.

boom! !
