The most courageous pirate hunter

"It's just that my way of thinking is different from yours. Look, I can wipe you all out so easily!"

Hermes felt somewhat saddened. From Im's and the Five Elders' perspective, this duel was truly unfair; it was over before it even began.

Everyone would think that Monarch and the World Government would eventually have a great battle, just like Monarch and the God Destroyer Alliance, which would definitely surpass any war in history.

But this final war ended in such a theatrical way.

All I can say is that a dimensional reduction attack is truly unbearable.

It can be said that Im and the Five Elders died unjustly.

I never imagined things would turn out this way.

They died in shock, possessing unparalleled strength, yet never even had the chance to use it before their lives ended in an instant.

It was so sudden...

Chapter 512 [Jormungandr will not allow us to exist]

In a daze.

Three years have passed.

The population of Pirate Planet is now less than it was three years ago, because that cataclysmic natural disaster caused the World Government, which had ruled the world for over 800 years, to disappear.

Those who remained were mostly remnants of the old regime.

After three years of recuperation.

The island kingdoms farther from Mary Geoise have gradually returned to normal.

The destruction of the World Government and the disappearance of a large number of people plunged the world into an eerie silence, leading many kingdoms to speculate that the explosion was not a natural occurrence.

It is very likely that it was done by someone.

The first thing that comes to mind for most people is the legendary imperial organization.

Even though three years have passed, some people still find it unbelievable. That was the World Government, how could it be destroyed overnight?

Nothing was left behind.

Almost forgot.

The World Government has many systems within it, such as CP0, CP1-CP9, and the overt Justice Navy. Surprisingly, the Navy retained a considerable amount of power during that cataclysmic disaster.

Among them, Sakazuki, Magellan, and others survived because they evacuated quickly enough.

In addition, being a Logia-type Devil Fruit user, their vitality is quite strong.

So over the past three years, Sakazuki has reorganized other naval bases at sea, barely managing to make his navy one of the top forces at sea.

Very dramatic.

this day.

Suddenly, a video appeared, and its release took the world by surprise. In just three seconds, a figure engulfed in purple-white flames stood in the sky above the terrifying, seemingly endless sinkhole in the original location of Mary Geoise.

It was just a glimpse of his back.

And then this very image of his back confirmed some of the speculations.

"It's really him!"

A naval fortress.

Sakazuki, with his white hair, puffed on a cigar, staring at the three-second projection in mid-air, his eyes filled with disbelief and helplessness. Below, Magellan, Momousagi, Chaton, and the others also had their pupils shrink sharply.

They escaped death three years ago.

An investigation revealed that the highest levels of the World Government were wiped out, including the Five Elders, Kong, the Celestial Dragons, CP0, and all other life forms living in Mary Geoise, all of whom were reduced to ashes in the massive explosion.

The world government was thus paralyzed.

They had barely managed to recover from their injuries and regroup the remaining forces of the navy when this video exposed them. Even if that purple-white figure turned to ashes, they would still recognize him.

Who else could it be but Jormungandr?

"How can it be!"

"How did he do that."

"You should know that Mary Geoise is full of experts."

"It might be a little boy created by Monarch."

The atmosphere in the office was heavy.

Anyone with eyes can see that the destruction of the World Government was most likely the work of the Monarch organization, but the methods used were so shocking and devastating that they were simply utterly destructive.

The world government didn't even have a chance to retaliate.

"This video should have already been released on the high seas. Does this mean Monarch is going to replace the World Government and rule the oceans?"

"Marshal, what should we do?"

"Jormungandr will not allow us to exist."

Everyone was worried.

As for fighting the Monarchy organization?

Stop kidding, that's not realistic!

Sakazuki smoked one cigar after another, his head throbbing with pain. He used to be defiant when facing that man, and he was confident he could take him down with him, even if it meant certain death.

It's time to face reality.

But he's Sakazuki, how could he easily admit defeat?

"It's good that the World Government is gone. Now there's no one to tell us what to do. The Navy is still the Navy. As long as there is a pirate or an evil thug on the sea, we must defend justice."

"If any of you want to leave the Navy, then leave. I will live and die with justice."

Sakazuki slammed his hand on the desk; nothing could stop him from upholding justice.

This is his belief in living.

"marshal!"

Many generals gritted their teeth.

Although some people have changed their initial motivations for joining the Navy, there are still some fools who persist.

Justice is such a sacred word. As the Fleet Admiral said, it would be better if there were no World Government or Celestial Dragons, so that they could defend justice more purely.

Even if it's harder than before, or even if it costs you your life.

"Jie Jie~"

"Sakazuki, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. Of all the admirals, you are the purest and never pretentious."

No sign.

A figure appeared in the conference room office, instantly suffocating the already heavy atmosphere.

"Jörmungandr!"

"Damn it, how did this happen?"

"How could that be? It really is Jormungandr."

All the naval commanders were on the verge of a breakdown, some were sweating profusely and too scared to move, their eyes fixed on Hermes who had appeared out of nowhere. Even Sakazuki paused for a moment.

However, he remained calm.

Whether it's a blessing or a curse, we can't escape it, so what's there to be afraid of?

It's just one life.

It's not like he, Sakazuki, can't afford to give it to them.

From the moment the God Destroyer Alliance and the World Government were destroyed, the world was destined to have only one voice: Hermes Jormungandr!

"Did you destroy Mary Geoise?"

Sakazuki, smoking a cigar, calmly met Hermes' gaze; in the past, he would have already erupted in anger.

"Yes."

With Hermes's confirmation, some of the generals who had held onto a sliver of hope collapsed in despair. They couldn't fathom how this man had managed to do it, leaving the World Government no chance to resist.

"Then let's do it!"

Sakazuki's body began to emit magma, and Magellan, Momousagi, Chaton, and the others also looked like they were ready to die, while Garp and Tsuru had even more sinister faces.

Today, either Jormungandr dies, or they perish.

"Sakazuki, you're a talented individual. Would you be interested in joining Monarch and rebuilding a navy that belongs to Monarch? After all, the world still needs justice."

Hermes looked at Sakazuki with a smile.

"Jormungandr, we are sworn enemies. Besides, I've lived long enough. What the future holds is none of my business. You're not going to work for me."

Sakassky extinguished his cigar, already resigned to his fate.
