Luffy, how can you become the Pirate King if you don't work hard!

"Wait, are there any admirals with this kind of aura?"

Luffy squinted, carefully sensing the oppressive feeling emanating from the direction of the port. "This aura is very uncomfortable, and it feels like I've felt it somewhere before."

Akainu, Kizaru, and Aokiji.

Luffy fought against them during the Impel Down War.

The three admirals each had their own distinctive aura, but none of them were as nauseating as this.

"I remember now."

Luffy muttered to himself, "Is it the guy Nika mentioned?"

Those appearing knights of the gods.

Then one of them turned into a monster.

Nika had said back then that it was best not to clash with that monster before you had absolute strength.

"It's going to be very dangerous here later."

Luffy made a quick decision and turned to Toki, saying, "Go wait where the time wormhole will appear."

"Lord Luffy, what about you?" Tenzuki Toki looked at him with concern.

"I'll go over as soon as I'm done."

Luffy grinned, "Don't worry, opponents of this caliber can't stop me."

The aura is very strong.

But it doesn't feel as strong as the giant king Borsson and the squirrel named Tere that I encountered during my time travel.

However, it won't be too weak; at least it's not comparable to these weaklings who collapse with a single blast of Conqueror's Haki.

"Hey, aren't you going to leave?" Luffy looked at Roger, who was eager to try his luck.

"Hahaha! I can't miss a battle of this caliber!"

Roger laughed as he drew his longsword, Ace. "And I also want to see just how strong an opponent is that you take so seriously!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a sharp whistling sound suddenly came from the sky.

It was a sword aura that cleaved out from a warship in the direction of the port.

The sword energy was aimed at Roger.

"Good timing!"

Roger's eyes flashed with a sharp light. Instead of retreating, he advanced, his whole body rushing forward like an arrow released from a bow. Just as the sword energy was about to hit him, he suddenly slashed Ace upwards!

Clang!

The crisp sound of metal clashing echoed across the square.

Roger precisely parried the sword energy, then, guided by the blade, it veered off course and slashed towards the ground to one side.

boom!

A trench more than ten meters long was carved out of the ground.

"Vice Admiral Daigo of the Navy Headquarters."

A deep voice rang out.

Roger looked up and saw a man wearing a naval justice cloak slowly descending from the sky.

He was around forty years old, with a scar on his face that ran diagonally from his forehead to his chin, and he held a strangely shaped long knife in his hand.

"Oh, it's you."

Roger grinned. "What, didn't you get enough last time? You're here to die again?"

Roger's bounty only started to rise recently, and the biggest contributor to that increase was Vice Admiral Daigo.

Roger escaped unscathed after his encounter with him.

“Gol D. Roger, the Pirate,”

Vice Admiral Daigo's eyes were icy. "You got away last time, but that won't happen again."

"Hahaha, you think you can stop me?" Roger laughed. "With your small navy, you can't possibly stop me!"

"Then let's give it a try."

As soon as Vice Admiral Daigo finished speaking, a flurry of footsteps suddenly sounded from the direction of the port.

It was a large-scale operation, with squads of naval soldiers pouring off the warships and quickly assembling in the port area.

They were well-equipped and moved in perfect unison, clearly the elite of their unit.

Even more surprisingly, among these soldiers were some people dressed in white suits and wearing strange masks.

"CP0?" Luffy narrowed his eyes.

Information about these guys surfaced in Luffy's mind.

An organization directly under the Celestial Dragons, the world's nobles, it is hailed as the Celestial Dragons' strongest shield and the world's strongest intelligence agency.

In short, he's Rob Lucci's superior?

"Attention all naval personnel!!"

Just then, a sound amplified by loudspeakers resounded throughout the entire port area.

"The Five Elders, Saint Satan, are about to arrive!"

"Repeated, the Five Elders, Saint Satan, is about to land!"

"All personnel, prepare to receive them immediately!"

The civilians and sailors who were still conscious in the square were stunned.

The Five Elders?

Why would one of the world's highest powers be in a place like the East China Sea?

"The Five Elders?" Luffy squinted.

While on Amazon Lily, he heard about these people from Golden Lion and Rayleigh.

The supreme rulers of the world government each possess terrifying power.

I never expected to run into you here.

It was quite a coincidence that the Satanic Temple appeared nearby.

His original mission was to escort several national treasure-level Devil Fruits to Mary Geoise. The hunting event, which takes place every few years, is about to begin, and this year these Devil Fruits should be able to cultivate members of the God Knights with decent combat power.

When he received news of the attack on a Celestial Dragon from his own family during the journey, Saint Satan originally did not intend to pay any attention to it.

A mere pirate attack can be handled by the Navy.

No matter how arrogant those pirates were, they wouldn't dare to actually kill a Celestial Dragon.

But Lord Im's direct order forced him to change his plans.

"Just right,"

Satan Saint stood in the cabin, looking out the porthole at the ruined port of the Kingdom of Flaus in the distance. "Let me see who it is that can make Lord Im personally order this to be done."

......

Almost at the same time the broadcast started, a ship even larger than the Celestial Dragons' vessels appeared on the sea outside the port.

It was a giant ship painted entirely in deep black, with the World Government's insignia carved on its bow, and its sides densely covered with cannons.

Following closely behind was an entire fleet of naval warships.

These were not the small vessels of the East China Sea Branch, but standard naval headquarters warships, each equipped with at least one officer of the rank of colonel.

The moment the giant ship entered firing range, the muzzles of all the warships' side guns simultaneously lit up with fire.

Boom! !

The deafening roar of artillery fire was deafening, and hundreds and thousands of shells tore through the air as they rained down on the port area!

This firepower is comparable to the Buster Call.

A massive, saturation bombardment descended upon the Celestial Dragons.

They don't care about any life other than the Celestial Dragons.

"Are these guys trying to blow everyone up at once?!" Roger's expression changed.

No innocent civilian was spared from the bombardment.

"Vibration Fist".

A calm voice rang out.

Luffy took a step forward, his body leaping into the air. His right fist retracted backward, and fine ripples even appeared on the surface of his arm due to excessive compression.

Then, he threw a punch.

It crashed into the space in front of it.

Click,

Centered on Luffy's fist, the air shattered like glass.

The high-frequency vibrations spread forward in a fan-shaped area in the form of shock waves.

"These aren't enough to kill us!"

Luffy floated in the air, watching with a cold gaze.

Rumble!

The first shells to be hit by the shockwave disintegrated in mid-air, the gunpowder inside turning into powder before it even had a chance to explode.

The second wave, the third wave... all the shells fired in this direction were shattered and exploded hundreds of meters away from the port.

An explosion illuminated the sky in the distance.

But it's not over yet.

The aftershocks of the tremor reached the seabed.
