One Piece: The World King Who Emerged from the White Town

The bright light of the searchlight immediately shone from there.

It is said that Abel gave some suggestions on the installation location.

The reason is that 'three-eyed people' are cool.

The Qingyuan Miaodao Fuyou Taiyi Zhenjun Huimin Rensheng Dadi said, "Let's talk privately later."

Without keeping Gaji waiting long, the clones soon surfaced, bringing good news.

After all, this isn't some shipwreck from many years ago, and its location is uncertain.

How long did it take from Abel's return to Judge's arrival?

If I still can't find one, I might as well go home and farm.

Then came the salvage operation.

Originally, Judge thought the situation was very complicated, so he made many preparations.

However, after conducting an on-site inspection, it was discovered that it was actually completely unnecessary.

The sunken warship was damaged... well, very neatly arranged.

The place where the celestial gold was stored was divided into two parts. Some of the celestial gold was swept away by the water, but it seems that most of it is still there.

So Judge first dropped a large box down.

Then the clones plunged headfirst into the water.

Judge wanted to wait until they had put all the 'Heavenly Gold' into the box before he would retrieve the entire box using the rope connecting it.

It's that simple.

Chapter 897 Operation Code Name: Weeding!

Celestial Gold refers to the annual tribute that member states of the World Government must pay to the Celestial Dragons, who are considered "world nobles."

The 170 member states would entrust the treasure to the naval escort ships responsible for transporting it to the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.

Therefore, heavenly gold does not only refer to gold, but can include any valuable treasure.

In reality, however, the vast majority of member states of the World Government would choose to hand over an equivalent amount of Berry.

Because Berry's 'value' doesn't fluctuate that much.

However, the price of treasure can fluctuate wildly, sometimes doubling and sometimes halving, making it easy to make mistakes when counting it.

The government officials in charge of collecting the funds will naturally try to lower the price in various ways so that member states can contribute more of their treasures, so as to avoid having to bear the responsibility if they don't have enough in the end.

However, this would result in losses for the member states.

Therefore, in most cases, member states would trade the treasure in advance for Berries and then deliver the full amount.

This will prevent disputes.

So when Judge returned laden with his loot, all Abel saw were black leather suitcases piled up like a small mountain.

These specially made leather cases, designed specifically for collecting celestial treasures, are of extremely high quality. They are not only waterproof and fireproof to a certain extent, but can even withstand bullets.

It is said to be one of Vegapunk's inventions.

Now it all benefits Abel.

After taking stock, it turned out to be over 10 billion Berries.

This is only a portion of the total amount of gold in the sky each year.

Abel was in a good mood after receiving so much money for free.

He immediately announced that a three-day, three-night banquet would be held for everyone to celebrate!

The decision was immediately welcomed by everyone, and cheers were heard everywhere!

Back then, Doflamingo had to steal the Celestial Gold to secure his position as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

But now the Seven Warlords of the Sea are a thing of the past.

Abel also inherited Doflamingo's will and became the second person to rob the Celestial Gold!

Moreover, he is not afraid of the Navy or the World Government at all.

If the other party dared to come, they would have already come looking for trouble for him.

Just as the members of the Dragon Hunter Guild were enjoying the banquet.

The navy has also confirmed that the escort warship carrying the Heavenly Gold has encountered an accident.

After all, Judge didn't hide anything when he retrieved the gold from the sky.

After it was brought back, it caused quite a stir.

This also means that the world government received the news, and even knew the exact figures.

But what's the use?

Are you hoping Abel will return the money?

Give me a break!

They even dared to kill a Celestial Dragon, and afterwards they even offered a bounty.

What's the point of stealing gold from the sky now?

Should we take them back with our men?

If they had that kind of do-or-die courage, they wouldn't be waiting until now without daring to take action.

Left with no other choice, the Warring States period decided to proceed with the original plan.

A large number of warships arrived in the New World, and then, led by Akainu and Kizaru respectively, they split into two groups.

Akainu was in charge of eliminating the remnants of the Beasts Pirates.

Kizaru is responsible for eliminating Charlotte Linlin's surviving children.

This operation will be a blitzkrieg.

Operation codename: Weeding!

……

The New World, Andros Island in the Bahamas, is far from the main shipping routes and is a place with extremely harsh environment and weather.

The island is dotted with active volcanoes that could erupt at any time, and the air is thick with the smell of sulfur.

Apart from a very few natives and wild beasts that look like dinosaurs, almost no one comes here normally.

Few people know that after Kaido's death, some remnants of the Beasts Pirates took some of their assets and eventually hid here.

The remote and harsh terrain has become a form of camouflage for these people.

However, after so much time has passed, the Dragon Hunter Guild doesn't seem to have any intention of settling scores with them, which has gradually made them lower their guard.

Despite their resentment, they realized that the Dragon Slayer Emperor Abel seemed to completely disregard them, these insignificant little shrimps.

So what if he ran away? As long as he doesn't show up in front of him again and court death.

Once this consensus was reached, they felt both frustrated and relieved, and somewhat fortunate.

After all, their initial idea and ambition to make a comeback and avenge the captain were just that—ideas.

As they gathered more and more information, they basically gave up.

nonsense!

Even the Big Mom Pirates were defeated, and Charlotte Linlin was killed by that demon.

How many lives do they have to give up?

They don't even respect the Celestial Dragons. First, they issued arrest warrants for Navy and World Government officials, and then recently they even put bounties on the Celestial Dragons!

He even personally killed one of the Five Elders!

God knows how they felt when they found out this information.

It's crazy!

This world has become so unfamiliar.

Does that demon act without any regard for the consequences?

They had already decided that after some time, they would completely abandon the name of the Beasts Pirates and go their separate ways.

Some things are no longer worth persisting in.

A woman like Black Maria, who is a Zoan-type Spider Fruit user, Ancient Zoan type, and Ancient Tarantula form, is rather frivolous and has no desire for power. She could easily find a pirate faction in the New World and do very well. Why would she need to hide here every day and smell the disgusting sulfur?

Sasagi, the user of the Zoan-type Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Ancient Zoan type, Triceratops form, thought so too.

Despite his unwavering loyalty to Kaido after joining the Beasts Pirates.

But now Kaido is dead, and he was originally the captain of another pirate crew.

If not now, when?

He has recently won over quite a few people, and has even come up with a name for his new pirate crew: the Dragon Beard Pirates.

Besides the fact that he ate a Triceratops Devil Fruit, dragon's beard vegetable is also his favorite food.

What annoyed him was that the siblings, Ulti and Page One, were so clueless that they even dared to dream of restoring the Beasts Pirates' name.

Furthermore, they also possess a portion of Kaido's legacy.

Some old guys who were loyal to Kaido supported Ulti and Page One's actions.

This infuriated Sasaki!

He already looked down on Page Van as a weakling, and now this brother and sister have become an obstacle in his path.

Then we'll have to find a way to get rid of it.

The others are not a threat; the only variable is that woman, Black Maria.

But after the conversation, Black Maria made it clear that she would not get involved and that she was leaving.
