No kidding, even Rocks would have to offer me a cigarette.

"Don't speak too soon! Who will seize the highest position of power in this world? That's still uncertain!"

"Hmm? You bunch of scoundrels and opportunists, are you trying to pick a fight with me at this crucial moment? I think you want to test the sharpness of my sword!!!"

"Hmph! Chief Nader, Lord Vochuli has said that everyone will have a fair chance this time! Besides, while your sword is sharp, mine is just as sharp!!!"

The Celestial Dragon family patriarchs in the crowd, who were originally quite harmonious, instantly fell into disarray and even became wary of each other because of the appearance of the word "immortality"!

The five elders who witnessed this scene exchanged glances and smiled kindly.

In the end, they're just a bunch of good-for-nothings.

These guys, spending all their time in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, have never experienced the lower classes of society. What kind of cunning could they possibly have?

They had only offered a tiny bit of enticing incentive, and these guys swarmed in like wild dogs eating excrement.

These bastards dare to try to break away from the Holy Land and establish a new regime?

Just kidding~

If it weren't for Lord Im Saint taking the lead back then...

Those dozen or so families were all wiped out long ago, crushed into mincemeat by that guy Joey Boy's rubber fist.

Where would they have had the chance to multiply and survive to this day?

Vochuri glanced at Nasujuro, who had calmed down, indicating that he could now state his conditions for vying for the highest power position in the world.

Nasujiro nodded.

He then turned and walked straight to the table next to him, pulled out a bounty poster for Rahu, and placed it in front of a group of Celestial Dragon clan leaders.

"This brat is the current second captain of the Rocks Pirates!"

"If any one of you can put his head before me..."

"Then... I'll hand over the position of the highest power in this world to that person."

Nasujuro spun the wanted poster in his hand once to make sure that the head of each Celestial Dragon family could see it clearly.

He spoke casually to the patriarch of the Nader family in an almost provocative tone.

"And... this guy nicknamed 'Devil' is also the wicked pirate who killed your son, Nadebontiania Saint!"

......

Chapter 112 Garp Shut Up

"Hmph! You dog, you can't expect anything good to come out of your mouth. You think you're so great just because I gave you a little credit? Do you think I don't recognize this lowly pirate?"

"If he dares to show his face in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise this time, I can tear him apart alive with my own people!"

"You'd better be prepared to move your seat out of the Hall of Power! I'm afraid I'll have to waste my breath coming over to kick you out later."

Nader Nigeria looked at Nassourou Saint with disdain, who was trying to provoke him.

To be a qualified clan leader.

Nader Nigeria considered himself extremely intelligent and believed he could see through Nassou's schemes at a glance.

Isn't the point to provoke his anger in this way so that he can go after the pirate who killed his son?

He's not that stupid!

As the clan leader, of course he should send other clan members to surround and kill the enemy.

He himself wasn't that strong, so how could he possibly go on stage personally from the very beginning?

Nasujuro, who was holding the bounty poster in his hand, naturally smiled after hearing the other party's confident words.

"Hahahaha, since Chief Nader has such high confidence, then I look forward to your good news!"

"I'll say it again: my position is right here in the Hall of Power! If you're so capable, send someone to move it!"

Nasujuro laughed loudly, then pulled the first generation Kitetsu sword, which had sunk into the ground, from the ground and sheathed it.

Just as the Celestial Dragon patriarchs, who had gathered together, began to walk back, each leading their troops to prepare to surround and kill the Rocks Pirates.

Meanwhile, the Marines, who were walking up the exclusive stairs of the Marine Headquarters to the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, also moved about with their own unique expressions.

Currently, the highest-ranking officer in the Navy Headquarters is Fleet Admiral Kong!

Under Kong's banner, three powerful generals—Garp the Iron Fist, Zephyr the Black Arm, and Sengoku the Buddha—followed closely behind, each with their own thoughts as they ascended the steps.

Besides these admiral-level powerhouses, the remaining vice admirals of the Navy had already received orders from the World Government and were deployed in various locations throughout Mary Geoise.

"Hahahaha~ Zefa, why do you always have that dark face? Do you remember what I told you about faking a fight before?"

"Anyway, every time the World Government launches a large-scale operation, it's just to protect those stinky Celestial Dragons~ There's no need to take it so seriously~"

While stepping on the stairs that the World Government had specially used to land on the Red Line, Garp, with his arm around Zeff's shoulder, muttered something in a nonchalant tone.

In his opinion, he shouldn't have been asked to come here to protect the Celestial Dragons.

The more trash like the Celestial Dragons die, the cleaner the world will be.

He had no intention of fighting a freakish pirate like Rocks for the sake of these trash!

Who was Rocks?

That's pure perversion among perversions!

The three types of Haki have long since reached the ultimate and perfect level!

Fighting someone like that, no joke, even a general-level expert could easily lose their head if they're not careful!

These extremely dangerous criminals are no joke!

However, just as Garp was preaching about the dangers the Celestial Dragons posed to the world and that he would never take action against them,

Fleet Admiral Kong, who had been leading the way, turned around with a furious expression, veins bulging on his forehead, and gave Garp, this hothead, a good scolding.

"Garp!!!"

"You'd better shut your mouth! How dare you say such things? You better not cause any trouble when we get to Mary Geoise!"

"Otherwise, even if I talk myself hoarse, I still can't protect you!!!"

As the current Fleet Admiral, he knows best just how complex and powerful the forces within the World Government are!

To put it bluntly, there's a persistent saying within the CP organization: the Marine Headquarters is merely the outward facade of the World Government.

That's absolutely right!

If the government feels that the current navy is no longer useful, it will not hesitate to purge them and replace them with a new group of people!

Never doubt the power of the government!

To be able to rule the ocean for over 800 years in a world with extraordinary power is something no ordinary person could achieve!

Let's not even talk about those other Celestial Dragon family members who were all born with certain talents~

Just their God Knights alone, with nine powerful members all ranked at the Admiral level, would be enough to wipe out their Marine Headquarters!

Although two of the nine powerful members of the God Knights were killed in public by Rahu, the current second captain of the Rocks Pirates, at God Valley.

But Steelbone Kong had heard very clearly that in just six months, the Knights of God had already replenished their ranks with two more generals, restoring their original structure!

In just six months, two more strong individuals were selected who were qualified to serve as members of the Knights!

Such a speed was something Kong Gu wouldn't even dare to dream of!

Since he took office as Fleet Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, it has been extremely difficult to promote even one strong admiral in the past six months.

Even the newly appointed general of the Warring States period was promoted out of turn because of time constraints!

In terms of actual combat strength, Sengoku was clearly not at the highest level of the Navy Headquarters in that era.

"Hahahaha~ So you can't say things like that?"

"I'm truly sorry, Marshal! Just pretend you didn't hear what I just said. I never said that the Celestial Dragons are trash!"

Seeing that Kong, that old codger, was really angry, Garp could only reluctantly take back what he had said.

However, even though Garp made what he thought was a perfectly appropriate concession, Kong Gu still glared at him angrily and shouted.

"Shut up!"

This scene naturally turned Garp's originally smiling expression into one of complete displeasure!

.....

Garp's facial expressions

Chapter 113 The Discussion of the Perverts

Garp, who entered Mary Geoise with a displeased expression, looked even more displeased upon seeing the Five Elders and others sitting in their original positions.

At this moment, apart from the Five Elders and other supreme rulers of the world, the entire Hall of Power was empty.

Beside them stood three governors who were the highest-ranking combatants of the CP organization during the God Valley War!

The situation has become so serious that even the Director and Deputy Director of the Propulsion Department and the three Supreme Judges of Enies Lobby have all been assembled!

In addition, the top experts carefully selected from the more than 180 member states under the World Government were all assigned to the periphery, following the Navy Vice Admirals and senior agents of the CP organization, specifically to block the extra captains of the Rocks Pirates.

Apart from the members of the Knights of God who remained mysteriously seated in the distance, and the other powerful Celestial Dragons who did not appear, the World Government's entire strength was basically concentrated here!

The total number of strong individuals who have reached the highest combat strength standard exceeds 30!

This doesn't even include those strong individuals who are close to the level of a general!

Adding to that the elite navy, CP agents, various generals and other miscellaneous personnel distributed around the outskirts of the Holy Land Mary Geoise, the total number of low-level combat personnel is close to 30!

They watched helplessly as the world government revealed its terrifying resources.

At this moment, Monkey D. Dragon, who had transformed into a gust of wind and was hiding high in the sky, couldn't help but gasp.

He had always heard while he was in the Navy that the World Government's true nature was never as simple as it appeared on the surface!

However, even after seeing them for the first time today, I was still quite shocked. There were dozens of powerful individuals who could reach the level of a general!

And each of them exuded an aura as if they were monsters!
