The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

His expression was now very calm, and his tone was indifferent, as if he had returned to the wise and clear-headed general with the wisdom brought by the Buddha!

"Moreover, in order to prevent the transfer ability of the Operation Fruit, the World Government has specially placed a lot of Seastone around this execution platform."

"So, this must be the work of the prop master himself..."

After finishing speaking, Sengoku subconsciously reached for a rice cracker, but then realized that he was on the battlefield and couldn't get one, so he sighed.

In this final battle, not even being able to taste a single senbei (rice cracker) is certainly a regrettable thing.

And just as the Warring States period was lamenting its misfortune...

On that red earth, at the location of the sacred site of Mary Geoise~

boom! !

At that moment, five extremely powerful auras burst forth, seemingly shaking the entire holy land to the point of collapse.

Even the red earth continent below seemed to be overwhelmed, and then...

Click! !

A crisp cracking sound rang out, and if one looked closely, one could see that a clear crack had appeared on the surface of the red earth continent!

"Props, tools, master...!!!"

The Five Elders' faces were extremely grim, and their low growls, filled with boundless rage, poured out word by word!

Their extreme rage caused countless flames to erupt from their eyes!

If Link were to appear on this battlefield at this moment, he might actually be killed by the flames in their eyes.

"Very good, very good..."

Jaygolucia Satan took a deep breath, struggling to suppress the extreme shock and anger within him.

He had never felt such a strong urge to kill someone!

[A huge thank you again to the generous user 'Once Upon a Time There Was a Eunuch'! Again and again, right on time at 7 AM this morning, and yet again! I don't know how many times you've given me this reward; I'm truly grateful for your support!!!]

999 The world is shocked! Foundations are shaken!! People's hearts are unsettled, and the ulterior motives of the member states of the World Government are at play!

They manipulated the World Government and the entire Navy in front of the whole world, turning their public execution into a complete joke!

It's important to understand that this was a public execution, with the execution platform completely removed, and it was all happening in full view of the public.

At the same time, this was accomplished in front of everyone in the world.

This is practically a slap in the face to the world government!

And people all over the world, having witnessed this scene firsthand, couldn't help but react in certain ways:

"The execution platform... has disappeared..."

The audience in front of the video Den Den Mushi stared blankly at the scene, muttering to themselves.

Slowly coming to my senses, and then...

"This can't be real, right?!?"

The whole world was immediately thrown into an uproar, engulfed in shock, terror, and disbelief!

The public executions that the World Government publicized are now gone, not only the prisoners to be executed, but even the execution platform itself has disappeared. What's the point of executions then?!

"The execution platform... how could it have suddenly disappeared?!"

"Who knows?! How could something like this happen?!"

"This is Whitebeard! Was it made by the Revolutionary Army as well?!"

"Nonsense, who else could it be but them?! Could it be you or me?!"

"How did they do that?! It was such a huge execution platform, how could it just disappear like that?!"

People's hearts were in turmoil, and an extremely anxious mood was spreading among people all over the world.

"You're asking me?! And besides, didn't they mention the Straw Hat Pirates and the prop master's name?!"

"Could it be that the Straw Hat Pirates did it? 々〃!"

"It's very likely that only a prop master could have created something like this..."

"That's right, didn't you see? The paper left on the ground—isn't that the Straw Hat Pirates' signature?!"

"I don't care who did this, I just want to know, can this execution continue?!"

"What's the point of continuing?! Can't you see the execution targets are all gone? How could there still be executions? Who would they execute? The Celestial Dragons?!"

"If you want to die, don't drag me down with you. Do you think you can talk about the Celestial Dragons?!"

"Okay! Stop arguing!! I just want to know, what do we do next?!"

"What do you mean, 'what to do'? You can clearly see that the World Government hasn't made any preparations for this at all!!"

"Even if there's no preparation, no defensive measures, what about the follow-up measures? Bring back the execution platform!!"

"Get them back... Look at their stunned and furious expressions. If we really get them back, will they still react like this?!"

"So... the World Government has been tricked again?!"

"That's right, they've become a joke again!!!"

When all of this happened right before their eyes, many people felt a silent panic from the bottom of their hearts.

"To do something like this right under the World Government's nose shows that they don't take the World Government seriously at all. But it also shows that the Straw Hat Pirates are not afraid of the World Government at all, and even have the means to manipulate them..."

"A gang of pirates that even the World Government is helpless against and unable to deal with. Could it be that the era of being under the rule of the World Government is finally coming to an end?!"

"Is an era ruled by pirates about to begin? What will this world become?!"

Many people are deeply worried about the future of the world and the ocean.

More than 20 years ago, the Great Pirate Era started by Gol D. Roger, the Pirate King, caused unimaginable pain to the entire world.

And now, the world government is once again showing its vulnerable, manipulative side...

Originally intended to project power, they ended up being mocked and manipulated, and their actions were broadcast live to the entire world.

Even if the world government wins this war, this situation will still leave an indelible impression of incompetence in the hearts of the people!

This is undoubtedly a huge blow to world governments that want to regain their prestige!

Not only did they fail to salvage their image, but their outward appearance also began to crumble step by step.

Therefore, from this very beginning, the world government has completely lost any chance of redemption.

What's worse is that not only the public, but also those who have an unusual distrust of their capabilities and response measures.

Even the core supporters of their rule, the member states of the world government, felt their scalps tingle and were filled with anxiety upon witnessing this scene.

"The Straw Hat Pirates managed to move the execution platform right under the noses of the World Government, and even the highest-ranking Marines like the Admirals and Fleet Admirals..."

They considered a terrifying possibility: "If they target us, the member states of the World Government, wouldn't they be able to move us away anytime, anywhere, capture us silently, and leave us to die out there?!"

These heads of state and kings of the member states of the World Government, who valued their own lives highly, were all feeling a strong sense of crisis at this moment.

They lived in constant fear, feeling for the first time that danger was so close, and their sense of security had never been so completely lost.

"Could it be that the great ship of the World Government is finally about to capsize?!"

Looking at the screen, the world government, completely inactive and utterly without any solutions to the situation, had become a complete joke.

The kings of these member states were all secretly plotting their own agendas.

After all, they joined the World Government in order to receive its protection.

But if even the most basic personal safety cannot be guaranteed...

Then they have no choice but to find another place to live.

After all, the World Government couldn't even keep a close watch on the important figures it was about to execute, let alone outsiders like them!

The World Government is in the most unfavorable situation ever!! The Straw Hat Pirates' actions!!

And without a doubt, the only powerful organizations and forces on the high seas right now are the pirates, whom they have no desire to associate with.

It seems that only the revolutionary army is left.

However, for the kings of the vast majority of monarchical and autocratic kingdoms, the revolutionary army and the redist wave they embraced were completely unsuitable for them, or even the complete opposite.

If their country were to embrace the wave of communism and govern itself according to the fair and happy methods promoted by the revolutionary army...

Regardless of whether their own royal family is comfortable with or accepts this, they themselves might be the first to be hanged after they do this...

So we still have no choice but to rely on the World Government!

They looked on with a mix of headaches and annoyance, grinning as they watched the broadcast from the Den Den Mushi.

"You guys from the World Government, you'd better step up your game!!!"

"We send you so much heavenly gold every year, not so you can make a fool of yourselves for us to see!!!"

The kings of the member states of the World Government felt very insecure and were quite troubled.

But for the other party on that red earth platform, it seemed like a wonderful situation~~~

"Guralalalalala!!!"

Whitebeard's loud laughter, thrown back to the sky, instantly shattered the utter silence.

And then, as Whitebeard's laughter rang out...

"puff!!!"

"Hahaha!!!"

"Warara laara!!"

"Kubabababa!!!"

All sorts of unique, monstrous laughter echoed across the sky above this sea.

They were either slapping their thighs or clutching their stomachs, laughing heartily with wide grins.

Those loud laughs were the greatest mockery of the World Government and the Navy below!

For a moment, some of the naval soldiers who had come to their senses first looked grim, and then their faces all turned red.

Being openly mocked by pirates to their faces is a truly unpleasant experience.

And most importantly, they have absolutely no room for rebuttal (cadf).

Who told them that their execution platform was simply moved away and disappeared?!

The pirates' methods are unpredictable and elusive, while on the other hand...

The naval soldiers glanced instinctively at the armored knights who had been brought in from Mary Geoise, the holy land of the World Government.

Seeing their snotty-nosed, dumbfounded expressions made them sigh and shake their heads.

With teammates and comrades like these by their side, how could they possibly win a battle like this?!

For a time, the atmosphere in the entire navy was extremely gloomy and heavy.

The tense atmosphere of an imminent battle was greatly diminished at this moment; morale, while not collapsing completely, was certainly weakened considerably.

The high-ranking naval officers naturally sensed this as well, and their expressions turned serious.

The Five Elders noticed this and their expressions darkened.

"Morale has been shaken..."

Their tone was icy cold: "The most urgent task now is to deal with the combined attack from the Whitebeard Pirates and the Revolutionary Army."

"Second, we need to find the execution platform and uncover the hidden Straw Hat Pirates!!!"

These are the two things they must do right now, and they absolutely must do them.

But~~~

I understand the principles, but how do I put them into practice?!

The first point is alright; the Whitebeard Pirates and the Revolutionary Army are nearby, so they are naturally on high alert.

But secondly... they have absolutely no idea where the Straw Hat Pirates are!!!

It could be in the nearby seas, or it could be in a distant new world, being remotely controlled from across the ocean!
