Under such extreme conditions of sudden cold and heat, the Human King's power was not enough to allow the Colossus to recover its body. The healing steam and Armament Haki could not simultaneously withstand the Ice Age Meteor Volcano, turning this land full of suffering red, and a strong smell of sulfur permeated the air.

With the perfect cooperation of the octopus creature and the pink starfish creature, the massive swarm that invaded Fishman Island was completely wiped out, and the first crisis that threatened Fishman Island was perfectly resolved. The survivors embraced each other, deeply grateful to the three powerful figures who had come to their aid.

If they truly lose Fishman Island, their homeland, the fishmen and mermaids will be left to wander, living a life of constant hiding. The human traffickers who love Beli will not pity them, and the vast majority of their compatriots will become slaves, living a miserable life in their next life.

Fortunately, three great heroes appeared. The survivors desperately needed to know each other's names, as it would be extremely impolite not to know their benefactors' names. The surviving mermaids wanted to repay them properly, as they could never repay such a life-saving grace.

After the crisis was resolved, Princess Baiqing and her mother no longer needed to run away. The mother and daughter swam to King Neptune's side, and the three saviors slowly descended in front of the fish.

Queen Otohime was more excited than ever. She had a deep connection with these three benefactors of Fishman Island. "It really is you! I almost thought I had mistaken you for someone else. SpongeBob, Squidward, Patrick, it's been so many years since we last met in Bikini Bottom."

The three heroes knelt on one knee before the queen and said in unison, "We will never forget your kindness to us. Doing these things was just a small favor. From now on, we will obey your orders without complaint."

The sudden allegiance of the three powerful figures left Queen Otohime somewhat bewildered. She quickly helped them up, saying, "I didn't have any selfish motives when I saved you. I'm really happy that you came out of Bikini Bottom to save me. But is it alright for you to leave Mr. Krabs and suppress the Eye of the Sea on your own?"

Bikini Bottom? The Eye of the Sea? What are these things? Neptune, the mermaid king, was hearing them for the first time and was quite unfamiliar with these two terms. How could his beloved queen know them? This mermaid, whose head was only filled with muscles, looked completely bewildered.

SpongeBob was the first to explain the issue to Queen Otohime. The three of them had been away from Bikini Bottom for several years. After being modified by the mad scientist Caesar Clown, they gained the power of the three admirals. These three weren't this powerful before, otherwise the mermaid wouldn't have had to save them.

As for why strange giants appeared on Fishman Island, it all goes back to Dressrosa. That famous tourist city at sea has been completely destroyed, and hundreds of thousands of colossal giants have scattered to various places. Some of them came here.

Then SpongeBob mentioned another "small matter": "There were tens of thousands of super giants originally heading to Fishman Island, but most of them were lured away by the Flying Dutchman, which changed their course and made them head directly towards the Red Line. Let the Navy deal with the disaster that followed."

When Queen Otohime heard the name "Flying Dutchman," she felt she had heard it somewhere before, but couldn't quite place it. Fortunately, the fortune teller Shirley was unharmed. She came to the ruler's side and said with some surprise, "The Flying Dutchman isn't just a legend. It turns out that this ghost ship, which has been talked about for hundreds of years, actually exists."

The Flying Dutchman, a ghost ship! Princess Otohime thought about what would happen after death. She had been fortunate enough to board the Flying Dutchman, but at that time she boarded the ship in spirit form. "Captain Davy Jones, how could I forget you? That was truly an unforgettable memory."

It turns out that Princess Otohime had also met Davy Jones, the captain of the ghost ship. He was the "Grim Reaper" of the sea, whose favorite thing to do was to "lend" money to the living, and in the end, the borrowers had to repay with their own souls. He did things entirely according to his own likes and dislikes.

After being deceived by a human pirate captain, Davy Jones developed a strong aversion to humans on the high seas. He favored simple-minded creatures like fish-men and mermaids. However, Queen Otohime never expected him to step in and save Fish-Man Island, which truly surprised the mermaid.

"You must have suffered a lot by Caesar Clown's side all these years. Let us give our great heroes a proper welcome. Make the most of the mermaids' hospitality!" After saying this, Queen Otohime waved behind her, and a group of generously sized mermaids swam to the three of them. Of course, heroes should be served with beautiful women, and surviving such a disaster is something to celebrate.

Subsequently, under the initiative of Queen Otohime, the surviving mermaids and fishmen began to prepare a banquet. This female politician wanted to use this victory celebration to wash away the sad atmosphere on Fishman Island, get rid of the current miserable situation, and look forward to the future.

SpongeBob SquarePants, Patrick Star, and Squidward are surrounded by a group of beautiful mermaids who have won over the three great benefactors who saved the island. It turns out that Fishman Island has such a powerful backer that there is no need to plant any pirate flags of the Four Emperors. As long as Queen Otohime is still alive, these three, who are comparable to the Marine Admirals, will fight for Fishman Island to the very end.

Neptune felt incredibly fortunate to have married such a wife. Queen Otohime's status on Fish-Man Island had surpassed that of the king. If this mermaid were to consider becoming queen herself, the island's inhabitants would undoubtedly agree wholeheartedly.

Chapter 217 Watching the Show from the Spot

Some people will never see a Marine Admiral in their entire lives. SpongeBob, Patrick, and Squidward perfectly inherited the abilities of Admirals Kizaru, Akainu, and Aokiji. This destructive power, which can be described as a natural disaster, makes the value of the scientist Caesar Clown even higher.

Conversely, Admiral Smoker's prestige is also rising. He was able to capture these three powerful creatures with ease. In the future, this admiral's strength should not be underestimated. Indeed, the position of admiral is not given lightly; there is no room for exaggeration.

The Navy in the main timeline is naturally overjoyed, now that they have Caesar Clown in their grasp. Smoker, one of the future protagonists, is staying at Navy Headquarters. From any perspective, the Navy is winning big. The most distressed are the pirates. There are almost no things in the sky that are favorable to the pirates. It seems that the only strong force is still the Straw Hat Pirates. Doflamingo is a thing of the past, and in the end, this former Celestial Dragon will still be defeated.

Fleet Admiral Sengoku, who was in Marineford, was curious as to why the future acting Fleet Admiral would allow the colossal Titans to set foot on the Red Line. "It's impossible for all twelve admirals to be on a mission at the same time. There has to be a main force left at Marine Headquarters. Is the future new Marines going to just sit by and watch the Titans enter the Holy Land of Mary Geoise?"

Even if the new Navy wants to turn against the Celestial Dragons, five years is not the right time. The preparation time is too short. If they want to overthrow the existing world order, they will be met with a fierce backlash from the old forces. Artoria Pendragon is a smart woman, and she, as the acting Fleet Admiral, should not do such a thing.

Artoria, whom the naval high command suspected of harboring ill intentions, was currently lounging in the naval mess hall. As for the opinions of her other colleagues, the girl didn't care at all. In her heart, she just felt that the script was getting more and more outrageous, making this world full of fun and uncertainty. The mastermind hiding in the shadows was really having a perverse sense of humor.

The naval staff officers thought that this was another piece of incredible news. They were currently quite interested in gods, and manuscripts recording folk myths had piled up in their offices. They were willing to sacrifice their hair to find some clues in this vast sea of ​​manuscripts.

We need to start collecting information about the cult's cults again. The Navy originally thought these idealists were all frauds, but they never expected that they could actually summon evil gods. Anything associated with gods is extremely dangerous.

The Navy Staff dared not be careless. If cultists went to Navy Headquarters and performed a summoning ceremony, countless Navy personnel would be held accountable for their negligence. Arlong, a former member of the Sun Pirates, was indeed imprisoned in Impel Down. This racist who had brought disaster to Nami's hometown was to be warmly received by Navy interrogation personnel.

As for Bikini Bottom and the Eye of the Sea, there is currently insufficient information to analyze more intelligence. It would be better to focus on the name Davy Jones. Perhaps he was a pirate hundreds of years ago, and we can find some clues in past bounty posters.

However, the massive colossal horde was drawn to the Red Line, causing panic among the Celestial Dragons of Mary Geoise, who were only interested in courting death. For eight hundred years, there was no major disturbance in the area, except for the fish-man Tiger who set fire to the Holy Land and freed some of the Celestial Dragons' slaves. However, this reactionary was betrayed by humans and eventually bled to death.

The Five Elders wanted to know if the future new Navy would stand idly by regarding the safety of the Celestial Dragons. Was establishing the Navy truly a case of nurturing a future threat?

Soon, the screen thoughtfully provided a short shot showing the colossal group heading out to sea and approaching the Red Line. The colossi are only a hundred meters tall, while the Red Line is nearly ten thousand meters high, with steep slopes of almost ninety degrees forming a natural barrier. It's truly amazing how Tiger, the fish-man, managed to climb up there; this incredible feat deserves recognition.

The first Colossi to approach gathered beside the Red Line and began to cooperate, stacking themselves on top of each other to build an upward bridge for the Colossi that followed. With this close cooperation, the first Colossi to set foot on the Red Line appeared on camera.

The male Celestial Dragon who was watching the spectacle from the edge of the cliff, along with dozens of slaves beside him, froze in place the moment the Colossus descended. They had no means of self-defense against this giant race they had never seen before. Soon, the first Celestial Dragon was trampled to death by the Colossus. Even a race of gods is still made of flesh and blood, and regardless of rank, they all became mincemeat under the Colossus's feet.

One after another, colossi began to land on the Red Line. These stowaways who successfully landed began to advance towards Mary Geoise, the largest architectural complex on the Red Line. After conquering it, they could freely enter the four oceans through the Red Line, and at that time, no one could stop the King of Men.

The Red Line, which divides the ocean of this planet, has a pitifully small number of intelligent beings living on it. This must be the Celestial Dragons' intention. Perhaps they want to protect the purity of this continent and not allow other inferior races to develop it? In any case, the Red Line itself is very empty, so there is a reason why the Colossus went straight for the Holy Land Mary Geoise. Only the Celestial Dragons' lair has the value of destruction.

Does the new Navy really not know all this? Are the Navy's intelligence agencies deaf and blind? Of course not. Even if the World Government withdraws its funding on a large scale five years from now, it won't affect the new Navy's ability to generate gold coins and maintain its massive size.

Admiral Akainu, known for his volatile temper and indiscriminate treatment of pirates, stood above the Red Line using Moonwalk. The Marine didn't attack the colossal Titans that had landed; he simply watched the spectacle from the sky. "Trouble from Dressrosa," he thought, "Is Gin any good? But this is going to be funny."

The joke the admiral was referring to was, of course, the Celestial Dragons who were always defying the heavens and the earth. Originally, he was ordered by the acting Fleet Admiral to go to the Holy Land of Mary Geoise to help the Celestial Dragons repel the invading enemy. However, as a general in the field, he was not bound by orders. Admiral Akainu wanted to see the true strength of the Holy Land and test the current level of the Celestial Dragons.

Enraged Acting Fleet Admiral Artoria called the Den Den Mushi, only to be met with a barrage of insults: "Sakazuki, you bastard, what are you doing? You're in Mary Geoise, so get to work! Of all people to imitate, you have to imitate Admiral Kizaru! The Five Elders are practically blowing up my Den Den Mushi..."

While Admiral Akainu kept saying "okay, okay, okay, uh-huh" to appease the acting Fleet Admiral, he didn't even bother to lift a finger. Artoria realized the Admiral was trying to leave alone again, so she had no choice but to send the honest Kuzan to replace Sakazuki, thus alleviating the crisis in Mary Geoise.

Chapter 218 Before the Final Battle

Luffy, who had been absent for many chapters, was rather unlucky. After being kicked out of the palace by Doflamingo using Conqueror's Haki, the enemy's kick landed on the boy's soft belly. Fortunately, the blow did not hit his head, but it was enough to make the Straw Hat Luffy temporarily lose consciousness. He was kicked out of Dressrosa by that terrifying force.

He was lucky to fly in the direction the Thousand Sunny was near. Franky, a robot with exceptional eyesight, spotted his captain flying towards him at a glance. "Fitz and Luffy are in trouble. You keep an eye on Rami while I go rescue him. We can't let him fall into the sea."

Due to the Rumbling effect of Eren, Rami expanded from a 20-meter-tall female giant to a colossal giant approaching 100 meters tall. Fortunately, the water cage created by Fitz the Fishman was large enough that as long as it did not leave this area, Law's sister would never be able to escape.

Flames erupted from the thrusters in Franky's soles as he flew towards the direction Luffy was falling. After flying for so long, the Straw Hat's consciousness was slowly returning to his brain. His massive flip-flops were trying their best to pull his body back from falling too quickly. If the two Devil Fruit users fell into the sea at the same time, they would only be destined to sink.

Fortunately, Mr. Robot arrived just in time. Franky grabbed Luffy by the collar and brought him to a steady stop in mid-air. "Luffy, what's wrong with you? How did you fly out of Dressrosa? And what's that skeleton giant in the distance?" He pointed in the direction the Founding Titan had left, and at the endless swarm of colossal giants following behind.

Straw Hat Boy scratched his head sheepishly and explained the situation. He explained that due to his carelessness, he was ambushed by Doflamingo and failed to stop Eren from activating the Rumbling. Just as Robin had guessed, he was indeed the King of Men and the source of all the events in Dressrosa.

However, after finally returning home, Luffy felt hungry again. He urgently needed to board the Sunny to replenish his stomach and store up energy for the upcoming battle. He firmly believed that only when he was full could he have the potential to fight continuously. Today, he was going to face Doflamingo, whom the Straw Hat Luffy considered the strongest enemy he had ever encountered. He believed that all the fish-men on Fishman Island combined were no match for Doflamingo.

Franky didn't find it strange to have a hearty meal before the big battle. He flew back to the Sunny with his captain because the ship's cook had left to go ashore. Mr. Robot had to take on the role of cook and make some assembly-line food for the Straw Hat Pirates. Naturally, the taste couldn't compare to Sanji's cooking skills.

Franky instructed a kitchen robot to cook food for the Straw Hat Boy, then stepped out of the cabin and looked at the colossal giants getting closer and closer in the deep sea. These steam-powered monsters, if they were allowed to get close to the Thousand Sunny, this ship built by the Adam Tree would definitely be doomed. The robot had to find a way to save this beloved ship.

Fitz and Rami were not in any danger. "I'm going to activate the dock system in a bit. Fitz, take care of yourself." Franky felt he didn't need to worry too much about his companion, the successor of Poseidon. His golden trident was usually too powerful for most enemies to get close to.

The dock system, which underwent a round of modifications, began to operate, all in service of the Thousand Sunny. The previous docks were too useless in combat, but after Franky returned from Vegapunk's hometown, he completely reversed this drawback on the ship.

Dock 1 in flight mode activated!

Two wings suddenly extended from the bottom of the Sunny's hull. Below these metal structures were countless propulsion sources. After the cola energy was ignited, the Thousand Sunny began to slowly rise on the sea. Once it was flying, it would not be afraid of the colossal giant.

Feeling the turbulence from the outside world, Luffy, with his mouth full of industrial food, walked out of the restaurant. He witnessed the Sunny leaving the sea and jetting into the sky, making the captain's eyes widen: "Wow, the Sunny can fly! Then why do we still have to sail at sea?"

The chef robot behind him explained to the captain in an electric voice: "The flight mode of Dock One consumes a lot of cola energy. Flying all the time is a waste of energy. According to the cola stored on board, it can only support the Sunny to stay in the air for a maximum of one day."

"Oh, I see. No wonder I've never seen the Sunny fly before," Luffy said, stretching out his arm to grab food from the restaurant. He was only half full now, but his nearly bottomless stomach could still store more food.

After a period of indulging in a feast, Luffy finally let out a burp in front of a pile of processed food. The food didn't taste as good as Sanji's cooking, but the chef robot made it incredibly fast, serving meals in about a minute, perfectly satisfying his captain's appetite. Processed food is all about large portions and filling you up, and it's especially high in calories and fat, making it easy to gain weight. Luffy had already become quite fat by now.

It was inconvenient for him to walk out of the cabin, so he didn't mind rolling out with his round body. He rolled like a ball onto the deck and came to Franky's side. Upon seeing this, Franky immediately reminded him, "Luffy, now that you're full, hurry up and get moving. You're probably the only one here who can defeat Doflamingo. Let's get going."

Mr. Robot did not choose to see his captain off. Luffy's Musou sandals had the ability to fly, and with his Power-Power Fruit, he could freely manipulate gravity, which was enough for him to catch up with the Founding Giant effortlessly. After saying goodbye to his crewmates, Luffy continued to chase after them.

While being carried by his master in his giant slippers, Luffy encountered his old acquaintance, Gin. He verbally described all of this to the Marine Admiral, almost causing the Rain-Rain Fruit user to suffer a stroke. The admiral hadn't expected the Straw Hat Luffy to be so slow; a second's delay could have resulted in countless deaths.

"You and I will stop Doflamingo together. This monster shouldn't even exist in this world. Don't hold back, use your ultimate attack!"

"No, Doflamingo is my target. I can handle him on my own. Don't try to take him from me."

Luffy's words left Admiral Gin speechless, but he quickly understood. This was the Straw Hat Luffy he knew. Perhaps only with this fearless spirit of courage could he ultimately defeat opponents stronger than himself and go even further on the path to becoming stronger.

After a journey of over twenty minutes, the two finally climbed onto the Skull Titan's body. Doflamingo, who was trampling Trafalgar Law underfoot, didn't immediately attack the two invading enemies; his maniacal laughter continued. The Heavenly Demon was determined to join Eren in bringing pain to the world.

Chapter 219 The war officially begins

Upon seeing Doflamingo again, Luffy was filled with rage just like last time. How bad could a pirate be? The man in the flamingo cape was the best example.

Every pirate I've encountered on my long sea adventures has some redeeming qualities, but Doflamingo is a born villain. He doesn't even bother to pretend to be a good person; he's completely succumbing to his despicable ways, leaving himself no chance to turn back. He's the complete opposite of his younger brother, Corazon.

"Doflamingo, your opponent is me, let go of Cairo!" Death Doctor was trampled under the feet of Tenyasha. Due to the compounding of his injuries, this newly promoted Shichibukai had long since lost consciousness. The fact that he was still alive was purely because Doflamingo was in a good mood.

After a burst of sneer from the man, Doflamingo grabbed Trafalgar Law by the hair and lifted him up. By this time, the blood on the man's face had already congealed, making him look like a pathetic loser.

"Law betrayed me just like my brother, but without my protection he would never have escaped Flevans. What an ungrateful bastard! The Op-Op Fruit was wasted on this good-for-nothing!" Then, under the watchful eyes of the other two, Doflamingo suddenly attacked, his arm piercing Law's heart. Warm blood enveloped the man's forearm, and the Doctor of Death stopped breathing in the hands of his enemy.

"Law! Law! Doflamingo, you deserve to die!" In his excitement, Luffy ignored Gin's advice and stretched out his rubber arm to try and snatch Trafalgar Law from Doflamingo, but this only exposed an opening for his opponent.

Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit. Doflamingo certainly wouldn't let this opportunity slip by. He grabbed Luffy's outstretched arm and said, "Since you like him so much, why don't you go down and keep him company, Five-Colored Thread."

Five different colored threads grew from Luffy's five fingers. These incredibly hard threads, like steel needles, pierced into Luffy's arm, damaging his muscles and blood vessels. Even the hardest bones were pierced with five holes. Despite such excruciating pain and the risk of losing his arm, the stubborn Luffy still did not choose to give up.

He endured the excruciating pain to keep himself from making a sound, his eyes fixed on Doflamingo's face. His killing intent towards this person had reached its peak; the last person to receive such treatment was Sakazuki.

Having had his fill of playing around, Doflamingo released Law, allowing Luffy's rubber arm to grab him and pull him close. Straw Hat Luffy immediately touched Law's nose to check if he was still breathing, but the result was already written on his face; he briefly showed a look of disappointment.

Trafalgar Law had stopped breathing completely. Luffy felt a pang of guilt. If he had arrived earlier, perhaps his former comrade-in-arms would still be alive. Ever since Ace died in front of him, this boy had grown up overnight. He realized how easy it was to die on this high seas. He was incredibly lucky that no one on the ship had died.

"Law, I'll take care of your sister for you, you can rest assured now." The dejected look in Luffy's eyes was once again covered by a raging fighting spirit. The arm that had just been pierced by Doflamingo had stopped bleeding, and the adrenaline in his body was gradually relieving his pain.

Doflamingo continued his sarcastic remarks, relentlessly mocking Luffy: "Straw Hat Boy, in front of me, will you still be chased like a dog by Admiral Akainu like you were five years ago? Back then, he couldn't kill you because he had many helpers. Today, it seems you only have one outside helper. Don't disappoint me!"

Tenyasha had already recognized the person standing next to Luffy, a blue-haired man who looked sleep-deprived. It was none other than Gin, the newly appointed Admiral of the Navy. Five years is enough time to change many things. Originally, pirates and the Navy did not belong to the same camp, but now they can stand together to fight against the enemy.

Artoria Pendragon's skill as acting marshal was so exceptional that even though Doflamingo had never met her, he couldn't help but admire her ability to unite people from diverse backgrounds under one banner.

This strengthened the navy's control at sea, severely impacting Doflamingo's underworld arms trade. They could no longer export weapons to the world with impunity as before. I really miss the time when Sengoku was in power; relying on my former Celestial Dragon status made it much easier to do many things.

If the Celestial Dragons had half the political acumen of Artoria Pendragon, they wouldn't have instilled such hatred for the God race in everyone on the high seas. They can't even grasp the most basic concept of shifting the blame. Doflamingo really doesn't think much of the Five Elders. They're just old guys who have lived a few years longer because of their age. Other Celestial Dragons might have a chance to compete for the positions under the Five Elders, but being treated like pigs is definitely not a good thing.

Luffy raised his arm to his mouth and said to his old friend beside him, "Gin, don't interfere. I want to avenge Law myself. I can't be the same as I was five years ago. I want to prove myself for all my efforts over the years." After saying that, Luffy pressed his lips to his arm covered in Armament Haki and filled his rubber body with air. His muscles began to expand rapidly in a short time, and his body changed accordingly.

"Muscle Balloon... Oh... Oh, Gear Fourth Bloody Muscle Man!" Luffy's entire body was covered in blood red, and his blood flowed twice as fast as usual. Most importantly, his legs and feet became thicker and larger, and his whole appearance looked like a miniature Red Giant. His height increased to be close to that of Doflamingo, and he was no longer the little dwarf he was before.

"How interesting. It seems he really has been training his Haki properly these past five years." As soon as Doflamingo finished speaking, Gear Fourth Luffy, with his face full of scars, instantly appeared in front of his opponent thanks to the amazing elasticity of his rubber man form. He frantically compressed his two large fists into his body to gain kinetic energy for his next move.

"Gum-Gum King Kong Gun"—two fists coated in Armament Haki shot outwards. Doflamingo could only raise his arms to block in front of his chest for a moment. In the brief contest of strength and Haki, Gear Fourth Luffy began to gain the upper hand, and the enemy was forced to retreat repeatedly by this move.
