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

Chapter 624 The entire Egghead Island is in complete chaos

For Vegapunk, he had already said everything he wanted to say.

The Den Den Mushi's mission is complete.

Im also withdrew his gaze, no longer looking at the giant who could no longer spread the truth.

He slowly scanned the Five Elders, "You bunch of useless trash, I'm very angry."

The original battle lines were suddenly stretched thin, and the five elders dared not say a word, showing the most humble posture in front of Im.

As the highest authority in the World Government, they are unapproachable figures in the eyes of the world, but in front of Im, they are no different from ordinary people who kneel before the Celestial Dragons.

Users of Devil Fruits make deals with demons.

They made a deal with Im, offering themselves to the devil.

Im spoke coldly, "To think that the world has heard so much."

"I'm so sorry, Lord Im!"

Nasujiro Sei's voice trembled.

“We must immediately eliminate all these traitors!” Pittor Saint hurriedly said.

Im did not respond.

His gaze swept over the people on the battlefield who were still discussing the matter.

The Marines were shocked by the truth Vegapunk revealed, while the pirates shouted out various speculations.

The noise annoyed Im, but that was all.

"The people of this world are best at forgetting, and Mu doesn't care."

No matter how many truths Vegapunk reveals, no matter how many people hear those words, they will eventually be forgotten.

This is Im's experience over hundreds of years.

Humans are creatures prone to forgetting; they quickly forget the truths that disturb them and return to their ignorant and comfortable lives.

Just like eight hundred years ago, just like after every cleansing.

But before that...

Im slowly raised his head, his gaze falling on the figure wearing a straw hat in mid-air. "I really did see something I didn't want to see, that straw hat you're wearing."

Luffy said, "This is the thing I cherish most."

value?

Im remained indifferent.

In some ways, he also cherished it quite a bit; the huge straw hat is still treasured by him in Mary Geoise.

Im: "You guys are really something, one after another, like cockroaches, you just can't get rid of them."

"Hey, you're really rude," Luffy said with an unchanged smile. "The people in the World Government are the cockroaches. Now I know why there's a Revolutionary Army—it's to eliminate you."

Im's nerves were successfully provoked.

The revolutionary army, the so-called spark of revolution, has indeed annoyed him in every era.

Meanwhile, the coastline of Egghead Island.

The two generals have already fought their way here.

Splash...

A beam of light sliced ​​the massive iceberg in half, leaving a smooth, mirror-like surface.

The two halves of the iceberg slowly tilted to either side before crashing into the sea with a roar, creating waves tens of meters high.

A tall, slender figure slowly emerged from the icy mist that permeated the icebergs.

Kizaru was naturally very familiar with Kuzan's abilities, and similarly, Kuzan was very clear about Kizaru's strength.

The Ame-no-Murakumo sword in Kizaru's hand was still emitting a golden light, with light particles dancing around the blade, dyeing the surrounding ice mist gold.

"come yet?"

His usually lazy face now showed a rare hint of seriousness, and he narrowed his eyes as he looked towards the research and development area.

That terrifying Conqueror's Haki could be clearly felt even from this distance.

I experienced it once during the Impel Down war.

Now that the mastermind behind the World Government has returned, Vegapunk must have a big reason for it.

"How terrifying!"

Kizaru drawled, "That Vegapunk guy actually revealed everything about the Void Century. In that case, he'll have a hard time surviving."

"You don't need to worry about Vegapunk."

Kuzan's voice was somewhat languid, "The World Government didn't let you kill him yourself, so you should thank me for keeping you occupied here."

Upon hearing this, Kizaru gave an ambiguous smile on his wrinkled face. "Well, thank you very much, Kuzan."

"Ara ara".

Kuzan looked surprised and scratched his signature afro. "I thought you'd keep being stubborn. The old Borsalino wasn't this frank."

"There's no need to be stubborn now."

Kizaru sighed, his gaze passing over Kuzan to the towering flames and escalating battle deep within Egghead Island. "I wonder how the war on Egghead Island will turn out. All five elders have descended, plus the people behind the World Government..."

He paused, his tone helpless, "Even I've never heard of this before. Is there really someone above the Five Elders?"

Kuzan was silent for a moment, then slowly said:

"It was only during this time that I learned about Im, the master of the Void Throne, the true ruler of this world."

It's ironic, really. We've served the world government for so many years, and we don't even know who we're serving.

When Impel Down appeared, everyone was still just suspicious, after all, the admirals knew that the Celestial Dragons had a mysterious organization.

That is, the legendary Knights of God.

But I thought the Knights of God obeyed the orders of the Five Elders, but I didn't expect it to be this so-called king.

That kind of power was on a completely different level from any strong person they knew.

This is something you can feel.

Kizaru was silent for a moment, then looked at the distant sea.

When will what Vegapunk said become a reality? The idea of ​​the land being submerged by the sea sounds like a fantasy, but if Vegapunk said it, then it might actually be true.

"Many islands and kingdoms today are less than two hundred meters above sea level."

Kuzan continued, "So, most of the world could be submerged by the sea. What would happen to the people on top? Would they all have to go to sea and become pirates?"

"That's really terrible!"

Kizaru resumed his lazy tone, but there was no hint of a smile in his eyes. "Then the workload for us Marines will be enormous."

Just imagine, the whole world is adrift on the ocean, and pirates are everywhere. Just capturing them would be exhausting.

"You're still thinking about these things?" Kuzan looked at Kizaru with some surprise.

"After all, I'm a navy officer."

Kizaru shrugged. "Regardless of who's in the World Government or whether Im exists or not, my duty is to maintain order on the seas. Even if that order itself might not be very clean."

“You really haven’t changed at all.” Kuzan shook his head.

"You've changed quite a bit."

Kizaru looked at Kuzan and asked, "From a Marine Admiral to a pirate's accomplice, what mystery has your path of justice found?"

Kuzan: "Some things can't be seen clearly from the Navy's perspective. Borsalino, do you really think the current world order is right? The Celestial Dragons' rule, the World Government's cover-ups, the erased history... do you really think none of this matters?"

Kizaru shook his head.

His sense of justice is not the same as Kuzan's.

“I’m just a navy officer, Kuzan. I’m not as opinionated as you, and I don’t want to think about such complicated things. My justice is simply following orders, nothing more.”

"Even if that order came from Im?" Kuzan pressed.

“Even if that order came from Im.”

A barely perceptible emotion flashed in Kizaru's eyes. "Because I am a Marine Admiral, this is my duty. But if Straw Hat Luffy can really defeat Im, then I'm really looking forward to seeing that day come."

Kuzan paused for a moment. "You really are a contradictory person, Borsalino."

"Each each other."

Kizaru raised the Ame-no-Murakumo sword, and golden light once again condensed on the blade. "Alright, time for small talk is over. Since you're going to stall me, then show me your true skills."

Kuzan: "......"

If I don't hold you back, you'll panic again, won't you?

Meanwhile, on the other side of Egghead Island, the Seraphim are in action.

When Im's Conqueror's Haki swept across the entire battlefield, the previously chaotic battle situation came to a brief halt.

Those naval soldiers and pirates who lacked willpower finally woke up from the previous Conqueror's Haki, only to faint again.

Originally, Vegapunk was on Egghead Island, and the Seraph's orders were naturally under his control. After the Five Elders arrived, control has returned to the Five Elders, and the Five Elders are now conveying new orders.

Korin shouted, "Seraphim, go and leave the entire Straw Hat Pirates behind!"

He was currently facing a double attack from Hancock and Gion, one with the Time-Time Fruit and the other with the Love-Love Fruit, both of which were difficult to deal with.

but,

"Now that Lord Im has arrived, we absolutely cannot let the Straw Hat Pirates leave!"

"Where are you looking, old man!"

Upon hearing this, Hancock unleashed a fragrant kick. Garin dodged to the side, but was still struck in the shoulder, his arm instantly turning to stone.

"Empress Hancock, your abilities are indeed troublesome."
