One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 201 The Power of Men!
"Watch your words, CP0!"

Goode's gaze turned cold, and a chilling aura of Conqueror's Haki swept through the venue, causing the entire fortress to tremble.

The exterior wall is cracked and the windows are shattered!

The guests felt the biting cold and couldn't help but gasp, unable to muster even the slightest thought of resistance.

"Like a demon from hell!"

"No wonder he's a man worth 30 billion!!"

"Even someone as powerful as the Four Emperors can only muster this much domineering aura!"

I was amazed.

"Fufufufu~~"

Doflamingo stared at Goode with jealousy in his eyes. He also possessed Conqueror's Haki, so he felt it most deeply.

"His domineering aura is even stronger than before!"

If he were to fight Goode again, he might not even last a single round.

Just like when we faced Kaido back then!
The power Goode displayed at this moment made him completely give up all his hopes; it was a pinnacle that he could never reach in his entire life.

The venue descended into chaos.

"Ahhh, Lord Goode, please don't suddenly unleash your Haki!"

"Many people have fainted!"

"This is a banquet, please put away your domineering attitude."

"Really!"

The subordinates were full of complaints.

Goode withdrew his domineering aura and looked down at the three CP0 members with a cold gaze.

“Slaves? How ridiculous!”

"If the Pirate Empress is truly a slave, why has the World Government turned a blind eye to her serving as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea for over a decade?"

"You came here for me, didn't you?"

Goode's gaze was disdainful, his mockery merciless: "I refused the invitation from the Knights of God, and I refused to become a Celestial Dragon. Is that so hard for you to accept?!"

"."

Guernica was greatly shocked!

And this thing? !
"what?!"

The underground emperors all stood up, their eyes filled with utter horror.

The World Government actually invited the Disaster Man to become a Celestial Dragon?!
And they're the Knights of God!!!
As industry veterans, they are not as ignorant as newcomers; they are well aware of the existence of the Knights of God.

Even among the Celestial Dragons, the Knights of God are leaders, second only to the Five Elders, the pinnacle of power.

Goode actually refused!
Unbelievable!

At this moment, no one cared whether the Pirate Empress was a slave or not; their hearts were completely filled with shock.

What magnanimity!
"Fufu~~"

Ming covered his face, his fingers drawing bloody gashes under his eyelids from excessive force, but he felt no pain whatsoever.

Returning to the Holy Land was his long-cherished dream, but Goode's dismissive attitude deeply stung him.

He thought of the petty thug Bellamy.

In Mr. Goode's presence, wasn't he just like Bellamy?

The venue was completely silent.

Guernica suppressed her shock and said in a hoarse voice, "Mr. Goode, we have no intention of targeting you. We have solid evidence regarding the fact that the Pirate Empress was once a slave."

"The three Pirate Empress sisters ate Devil Fruits from the Holy Land, and they also have the hoofprint of the Sky Dragon on their backs."

"Just verify it!"

Whether someone is a slave or not can be determined simply by showing their back.

The guests looked at Goode and Hancock.

CP0's assertive attitude made them begin to suspect that if Hancock didn't respond directly, the news, even if false, would become true.

The world's most beautiful woman, once unattainable, has fallen into hell, becoming the subject of public gossip and even ridicule.

Goode spoke calmly.

"Eye."

"what?"

Guernica paused for a moment.

Goode spoke with an icy expression.

"Each of you three will have one eye!"

Guernica's heart tightened.

He understood that this was a condition proposed by Goode; if they wanted Hancock to expose her back, they would have to pay a price!
It was only because of their past friendship that they lost an eye; otherwise, they would have lost half their lives.

"puff!"

Guernica raised her hand and gouged out her left eye!
Upon seeing this, the two agents behind him hesitated for a few seconds before gouging out his left eye.

As CP0 agents, they must complete the missions assigned by the Five Elders, even at the cost of their lives; there is no room for negotiation.

The three men clutched their left eyes, blood flowing continuously from beneath their masks, a bloody scene that sent chills down the spines of the guests.

It wasn't that it was particularly cruel, but rather Goode's attitude.

Even more powerful than the world government!
"These are just interest; I will settle the remaining accounts with the World Government."

Good said calmly, then pulled Hancock into his arms, tore off a piece of her clothes from the back, revealing a red brand.

The woman made no struggle from beginning to end, burying her face tightly in his chest, where he could feel a slight dampness.

"It really has a brand!"

The guests stared wide-eyed, but their expressions quickly turned strange.

It has a brand!
But it's not the Sky Soaring Dragon's Hoof!

It's a poorly made Groudon!
They already knew about Groudon.

The same murals adorn both sides of the main entrance to each Fengyuan residential complex.

Groudon, the "Earth God," defeated the "Evil Sea God" Kyogre and saved the world; this is also the name of the power of Good the Disaster.

This brand signifies that the Pirate Empress is a woman of the Calamity, and even if she was a slave before, there is no way to prove it now.

Goode tore off his cloak and draped it over Hancock, his cold gaze sweeping over the three CP0 members.

"Any questions?"

"."

Guernica fell silent.

He lost an eye, but this was the answer he received.

From his personal perspective, it was perfectly acceptable; he was already doing well to get back alive, and he had a reason to report back.

From the perspective of the world government, however, it was a complete failure.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Goode!"

"get out."

Good said coldly, "Tell the Five Elders that no one starts out standing in the heavens, not even gods. The day when gods fall into hell will come soon!"

"."

Guernica remained silent.

Such words are tantamount to a declaration of war!
"let's go."

The person who was in the way left.

The fortress square remained quiet.

"I've lost all interest in drinking."

Goode shook his head and looked at the guests.

"I'm sorry, everyone, but tomorrow morning I will arrange a boat to take you all to Beihai for a trip, so you can experience the sea breeze there and see how it differs from the New World!"

"it is good!"

This is the end of a farce.

The underground emperors had no objections to Goode's arrangements; they were eager to visit Beihai.

How can I feel at ease without witnessing it with my own eyes?

In a corner of the square.

The laborers who were playing dice together all fainted from the impact of the Haki, leaving only Rayleigh conscious.

"Well done."

Rayleigh put down the dice, shook his head with a smile.

In his view, this was the best possible outcome; even if he had intervened, he couldn't have done anything better.

His opinion of Goode changed once again.

Good is indeed dangerous, but in this chaotic world, perhaps only a dangerous being like Good can stand up to the World Government.

"Shanks."

Rayleigh recalled his conversation with Shanks.

"I've staked it on the new era!"

The man Shanks has his eye on is probably no match for Good!
