"Ok!"
This is the fundamental reason why Li Xia did not make a move; he wanted to retaliate the moment he was attacked.
Then they received a notification from the Temple of Light.
[Executioner, you are preparing to attack a Celestial Dragon. This act will invalidate your Vice Admiral status at Marine Headquarters and you will be classified as a traitor.]
Celestial Dragons!
I thought that when I entered this world, I was already at a very high starting rank as a Navy Captain.
Unexpectedly, the other party somehow became a Celestial Dragon.
"Hey, don't be so tense. You're the only one who dared to stay on the battlefield."
"I'm very interested in you, I won't kill you so soon."
Kate twirled one of her red hairs with a finger, smiling strangely.
Aren't you curious? Aren't you curious about what we really want to do?
She stood up, like a chatterbox who hadn't spoken in a long time, but her face still wore a playful smile, like a cat toying with a mouse.
"It's alright, I'll tell you. Anyway, the three generals and the two emperors will be fighting for a while longer."
Moreover... we time scavengers have always had only one way of doing things, and we only do one thing, so those people know this, which is why they don't come over.
It's rare to encounter an idiot who knows nothing. Oh, by the way, do you know how rare idiots are in the halls of power?
He's still a third-order idiot!
"Damn! This idiot can be a core seed?"
Awoo cursed out loud in the team chat:
"Do you even know what top-tier training is? Our leader always goes on solo missions; why would he need to hang out with these second-rate trash guild members!"
Li Xia remained unmoved. Seeing Li Xia's almost indifferent calmness, Kate suddenly felt a pang of anxiety and even a little irritation, but this feeling quickly disappeared.
Feeling bored, she spread her hands out:
"The four top-tier guilds, the four second-tier guilds... each guild has its own style of doing things."
For example, vampires like to harvest blood and cultivate blood slaves in the original world.
For example, the Brotherhood of Steel likes to unite everyone to do missions together...
For example, in Dragonblood Oath, players always like to challenge bosses.
And we... love scavenging!
A blush appeared on Kate's face, and her expression became fervent:
"Disrupt the derivative world, and eventually it will collapse, shattering the world into a pile of debris."
It will eventually become a huge landfill.
And in this garbage dump, lies our paradise!
Li Xia narrowed his eyes. If it were another apostle, they might not have been able to understand what Kate was saying.
But he understood it, and it was precisely because he understood it that he was so terrified.
The derivative world will collapse; all it takes is killing enough key plot characters.
He knew about it in the first Dragon Ball world of the second tier.
But he had never experienced what would happen after the world collapsed.
The Time Scavengers, on the other hand, simply shatter the derivative worlds and then pick up what they need from the fragments.
Do they have a way to protect themselves during a collapse?
"That's not right. This kind of operation is definitely against the rules. Won't the Temple of Light punish it?"
Awoo shouted in the team chat, but he quickly realized what he meant, and his voice became much more serious:
"They have ways to avoid punishment!"
"Boom! Boom!!"
A massive explosion had already resounded on the outskirts of Marineford, and the commotion caused by the clash between the two Emperors and the three Admirals was truly astonishing.
Even from Li Xia's current perspective, that power that could change the very fabric of the world was quite terrifying.
But inexplicably, the battle quickly subsided.
"It seems Sengoku has arrived at the scene. By the way, is the person you want to kill Blackbeard?"
Kate pointed to the blackbeard hiding in the back, acting suspiciously, and gave a mocking smile:
"No, we still have a great use for Blackbeard, we can't give him to you."
And... I'm waiting for everyone to arrive... What are you waiting for?
Kaido, Linlin, the three admirals, Sengoku, and others walked slowly to the surrounding area in two groups with grim faces.
Marco, bruised and battered, was slammed to the ground along with Whitebeard's corpse. Even Luffy, Ace, and several other Whitebeard Pirates captains were bound with seastone handcuffs.
Joz had already lost an arm, and foil Bitas's leg was limp and slumped to one side.
The entire Whitebeard Pirates were wiped out!
Kate pulled out a piece of parchment bearing the World Government's insignia and a Celestial Dragon's hoof, and pointed it at Li Xia as if crushing a fly:
"Now, kill him!"

Ugh, I'm having writer's block again.
Kate's actions will be explained in detail later.
Chapter 71 Two Emperors vs. Three Admirals of the Navy
The once chaotic battlefield has fallen into calm at some point.
The remaining forces of the Whitebeard Pirates, caught between two Yonko crews and the Marines, have fallen into despair.
They neither surrendered nor resisted; they simply gripped their swords tightly and stood stubbornly in place.
Under these circumstances, Kate's casual words traveled very far.
"Kill him!"
The parchment in her hand, bearing the World Government's mark and the Celestial Dragons' symbol, was his source of confidence.
Strangely, the navy forces surrounding them remained silent.
Kaido and Linlin, who were about to make their move, paused, their expressions shifting.
They allied with Kate because of her status as a Celestial Dragon and the promised territorial division.
Most importantly, Kate promised to promote the legitimacy of the 'Four Emperors,' allowing them to become true emperors with vast territories, above the member states, just like the constituent nations.
Do they need it? They both need it and don't, but this is an opportunity.
So they came. As for whether Kate can keep her promise, that will depend on her mobilizing a special force to defeat Shanks.
Kaido and Linlin believed it, because only they understood what that special power meant.
That is supreme power.
Seeing the indifferent navy and pirates, Kate's smile faded slightly.
"What, the Navy is no longer obeying the World Government's orders?"
"You do not represent the world government..."
Sengoku said coldly, forced by the order from the Five Elders, he had already pushed the Navy to its limit by stopping the battle.
Now they're actually demanding that the Navy execute a lieutenant general with no criminal record and outstanding military achievements in public without any reason.
And this was in front of tens of thousands of officers and soldiers!
If Sengoku could carry out such an order, it would mean completely abandoning the navy's duty and responsibility, and treating himself as a dog kept by the Celestial Dragons.
"Boss, you've already guessed that the Navy won't move?"
"Well, these characters aren't robots. They have their own feelings and intelligence, so they certainly can't carry out such absurd orders."
Li Xia remained standing there expressionless, ever since he learned that many people could deduce a great deal from subtle changes in facial expressions.
He was used to keeping a straight face during battles.
“Kate knew that too, so she was just testing the waters; her real trump card hasn’t been revealed yet.”
After a very brief exchange in the team channel, silence fell again.
"It just didn't work..."
Kate leaped onto the massive, collapsed debris, appearing as light as a feather despite wearing heavy armor.
She sat on the rock face, swinging her legs:
"That's why I hate people like you. You're just living figurines, but you act like you have real consciousness and emotions."
Honestly, we masters just obey their orders.
"Alright, let's stick to the plan."
She snapped her fingers, and the man in the suit beside her took out another piece of parchment, unfolded it, and handed it to Sengoku:
"The World Government's Five Elders meeting has reached a supreme resolution: the Navy... to immediately eliminate the Four Emperors: Kaido of the Beasts and Big Mom!"
Kate's face broke into a wicked smile, and she uttered a few words lightly:
"At all costs!"
Li Xia's pupils contracted, and he rushed towards the outer edge, even grabbing Ace and Luffy beside him.
The next second, the raging Conqueror's Haki created a massive shockwave that spread outwards.
The marines, still unaware of what was happening, were powerless to resist the Conqueror's Haki attacks from Kaido and Big Mom.
In just a short time, more than half of the original 80,000 people collapsed.
Kaido and Big Mom's roars echoed through the sky:
You lied to me!
The battle broke out without warning. The combined power of the two emperors and three generals instantly leveled buildings within a radius of several hundred meters.
Flames burned, a chilling aura spread, and golden flashes crisscrossed the sky.
The massive spiked club and broadsword were covered in jet-black Armament Haki, and the sound of their collision shook the entire Marineford.
"Kurotan! Bring Ace and Luffy away!"
Li Xia forcefully tossed the two into the air, then suddenly turned around, a faint shockwave emanating from beneath his feet.
"Oh!"
Moonwalk combined with the Flying Technique results in extremely strong instantaneous acceleration.
A scorching streak of fire grazed past his body, leaving only a faint 'whoosh' sound echoing in the air.
The hidden sniper fired again, and Li Xia coldly watched Kate and the man in the suit below, who were grinning.
He knew what they were thinking; they wanted to force him to make the first move and strip him of his naval identity.
Or perhaps this is the only way, to desperately evade.
Light seemed to be gathering in Li Xia's eyes. He tilted his head, and another streak of fire grazed past him.
The 'whoosh' sound of bullets whizzing past echoed in my ears.
With his right arm outstretched at his side, a faint electric current gathered in his palm.
"Zi La"
Blinding flashes of lightning illuminated the scene as Li Xia hovered high in the sky, seemingly holding lightning in his hand.
But what gave them this misconception?
