One Piece: Inheriting the Shendu Template, I Summon Demons

Only Garp relaxed his brow.

"This guy!"

"His head is harder than my iron fist!"

......

Chapter 117 The Five Elders Join the Battle! Shanks' Dissuasion!

boom!

An astonishing aura suddenly erupted from the Five Elders.

"What are you, the navy?!"

"This defeat at Impel Down is enough to prove your incompetence!" The blond old man narrowed his eyes, staring intently at Akainu, and snorted angrily.

"Know your place! Your navy is nothing more than the face of the World Government!" The old man in the kimono slammed the first generation Kitetsu into the ground, unleashing a frenzied burst of power.

Sengoku was sweating profusely, fearing that the Five Elders might attack and kill Akainu right there. He quickly moved to block Sakazuki's path.

Seeing this, a cold glint flashed in the old man's eyes, and he put down the knife in his hand. After all, given the current situation, it was impossible for him to actually attack Akainu.

He still needs this guy to do his bidding!

The decision to announce it a week later was not only for the sake of the World Government's prestige, but also to secretly deploy troops in advance to catch them off guard and prevent the pirates from uniting and causing trouble during the extended period of time.

"The first and the last time!"

The elderly man in the kimono sneered, "All of you, get out!"

"Prepare well!"

Although the Warring States and others were displeased, they could only silently retreat.

After they left, the bald old man among the Five Elders looked at the empty gate and sneered, "What a bunch of lowly trash!"

On the other hand, the old man with the mustache was more concerned about what to do next.

"They've failed twice already! Can we really trust the navy?!"

Although a large number of troops have been deployed, and even the World Government has placed many powerful individuals on its side, in theory, defeating Luo Xiu's current combat strength should not be too difficult.

But thinking about the previous performance of these useless people, he felt uneasy.

If the world government were to suffer a defeat during a live broadcast worldwide, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Lord Im is more likely to bring down divine punishment.

"Humph!"

"Of course we can't trust these useless people!"

A sharp glint flashed in the glasses worn by the elderly man in the kimono. He had never believed that the navy could succeed, and these two failures were enough to serve as a warning.

"What do you mean?" Upon hearing this, the other four Elders frowned.

"It's time to let these foolish inferiors witness the power of the divine messenger!"

"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since we've really stretched our muscles!"

The elderly man in the kimono moved his right hand slightly.

Zheng——

The first generation Kitetsu was drawn one inch from its sheath.

A cold light appears.

Sensing the old man's intense killing intent, the sword began to tremble and buzz.

The cold blade gleamed with an eerie purple light.

The other four elders revealed a hint of coldness on their faces, understanding the meaning behind the old man in kimono.

An invisible aura instantly arose.

Five enormous black shadows appeared behind them.

Some have two giant horns on their heads, some are shaped like a phoenix, some are like ghosts from the abyss, and some...

It enveloped the entire conference hall.

They come in various shapes and sizes, and are incredibly imposing.

Then, they gradually calmed down, and the conference hall returned to calm.

Just then, a series of tapping sounds came from the back of the hall.

A tall, upright figure walked in.

The five elders turned to look at him. The man had a Western-style knife at his waist and was wearing a simple robe.

If any pirate or marine of any renown were here at this moment, they would certainly recognize who he is.

One of the Four Emperors: Red-Haired Shanks!

The Five Elders showed no surprise.

On the contrary, because of Shanks' arrival, the disdain on his face towards the Navy disappeared, and he actually seemed much more polite to the Navy than he had to the Navy.

The redhead's true identity is enough to make them adjust their attitude.

"Shanks!"

"What brings you to Mary Geoise?" asked the elder of the Five Elders, the one in the kimono.

"Does it really have to go this far?"

Shanks didn't directly answer the Five Elders' question; he had overheard the entire conversation. Instead, he directly asked his own question.

The Marine Headquarters dispatched three admirals, along with the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Garp, Sengoku, Kong, CP0 and peace envoys who appeared before the world, and even... the Five Elders are now involved.

Without a doubt, regardless of the outcome, this will be an earth-shattering battle.

"how?"

"What's your problem?" The bald old man narrowed his eyes, his expression turning cold.

Although Shanks' status is undeniable, they are still among the most respected Celestial Dragons and messengers of God. While they may be polite, it's not their place to boss them around.

"Phew!" Redhead shook his head and let out a long breath.

"I've fought Luo Xiu before!"

The Five Elders shuddered, seemingly surprised that Shanks would reveal this news.

"How is the result?"

“Not ideal!”

"Although we were not directly defeated in the battle, it was only because we stopped in time. If we had continued fighting, we would have been defeated without a doubt!"

The Five Elders looked at the redhead with some surprise.

They acknowledged Shanks' strength, yet even he couldn't defeat Luo Xiu!

But thinking about it carefully, given Luo Xiu's current performance, it seems... there's nothing surprising about it.

"The outcome of the battle is not important!"

"Most importantly, I see in Luo Xiu the domineering spirit to stand at the top of the world and overturn everything!"

"It came more fiercely than anyone I've ever seen!"

"Even stronger than the revolutionary army leader, Dragon!"

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Shanks continued, recalling his battle with Luo Xiu, Luo Xiu's frenzied state, and the temporary breakthrough in Conqueror's Haki, leaving him with lingering fear.

That's what he was worried about!

The Five Elders' expressions changed drastically.

Although the Navy and pirates have always been on opposing sides at sea, the World Government is not particularly afraid of pirates. In fact, to a certain extent, it will adjust the balance of power between the two sides to prevent the pirates from being completely wiped out.

Pirates are hateful, but it is precisely because of pirates that the Celestial Dragons can more easily control the various kingdoms and, in the name of protecting the kingdoms, legitimately collect celestial gold from the member states.

But the Revolutionary Army is different; they really want the World Government dead!

Their ideology is on a completely different level from that of pirates who only know how to fight and kill.

Now, Shanks says that Rosh is even more extreme than the Revolutionary Army's Dragon, which sends chills down their spines.

At the same time, he became even more determined to eliminate Luo Xiu.

"So?" the old man in the kimono said, "That's exactly why!"

"That's exactly why we need to completely eliminate him!"

"But if we do that, the balance of the ocean will be disrupted!"

"Furthermore, given Ace's capture, and based on my understanding of Whitebeard, they will most likely intervene to rescue him!"

"If the Whitebeard Pirates and Law combine their forces and severely damage the World Government, the world will be plunged into turmoil!" Shanks stated his opinion.

"Boom!"

The old man in the kimono slammed the Onikiri to the ground, sending pebbles flying.

"Shanks!"

"Do you think our world government is like the navy, all just sitting around doing nothing?"

"The Whitebeard Pirates were naturally taken into account, but even so, I don't think they can escape my grasp!" The world's intelligence agencies had long understood Whitebeard's character thoroughly.

They certainly knew that the Whitebeard Pirates might interfere, but compared to Law, they could only be considered as a secondary consideration at the moment.

Upon seeing this, Shanks' expression instantly turned cold, and he rested his arm on his rapier.

He has his own principles.

He is not a member of the Navy, and he has no fear of the Five Elders' intimidation.

My trip to Mary Geoise is not to take sides, but simply to help maintain world peace.
