One Piece: From the God Valley Era

Lockes plunged his knife into the ground, carving a long furrow, before finally stopping, standing up, and looking at the people around him.

"Hahaha, you're all here!"

"Garp, are you here to cause me trouble, or to deal with this monster?!"

Although he called Im the King of the Sewer Rats, his strength was undeniable; even in Satan's body, he possessed the power of fear.

Furthermore, Satan himself is not weak.

It's a Mythical Beast-type Gyu-oni form, and it's even awakened.

Once awakened, mythical beasts are incredibly difficult to deal with, boasting high attack and defense, great strength, and strong recovery capabilities—they're practically unkillable cockroaches.

If you are not able to end the battle quickly when facing a Zoan-type Awakened Devil Fruit user, you will be pulled into their rhythm and eventually be worn down.

Even Lox was unable to quickly end the battle against the possessed Satan.

Furthermore, he wasn't particularly clear about what Im's abilities were.

Even the information passed down from the David family is vague.

Therefore, he needs to rely on the strength of others.

"I don't know this guy well!" Upon hearing this, Garp pointed at Satan, who had turned into a monster, and grinned.

Upon hearing this, Im, who was not far away, did not change his expression at all. He knew that Garp was a Marine, but he did not recognize him.

Im only knew the Five Elders and a portion of the Knights of God.

As for Garp, he genuinely didn't know him.

However, since Garp has shown hostility towards him, he needs to be killed.

The dog I raised has started to turn against me; it has to be killed!

"Hahaha, this is the Garp I know!" Rocks grinned maliciously, black and red lightning crackling from his rapier. "Acnoya, Whitebeard, Roger, where are you guys?"

"Gulala... I always make you drink with me, now it's my turn to pay back the debt," said the white-bearded man.

"You're still my captain, so I'll help you deal with this guy," Acnoya said.

"Hmph! Of course, we should deal with this monster. His aura makes me feel very uncomfortable!" Roger raised Ace in his hand and pointed at Im.

"Hahaha, you guys talk too much, just get started!"

Fist-bone clash!

God, beware!

Curse of the Abyss!

Breaking through the air!

Kamehameha Wave!

A terrifying attack swept towards Im, his entire body enveloped in terrifying beams of light.

The Valley of the Gods trembled violently, black and red lightning flashed wildly, and the sky...

The sky has long since cracked open!

With a loud bang.

Satan's body exploded, and his blood was evaporated by the terrifying energy.

But Im's consciousness did not dissipate and began to reconstruct Satan's physical body.

However, at this moment he discovered that a special energy was preventing him from rebuilding Satan's physical body.

He carefully sensed the energy and finally identified one of Lockes' group.

Acunoa!

Im remembered someone calling him that just now.

After memorizing the name and appearance, Im began to use his own power to remove the remaining energy, and Satan's physical body began to slowly reconstruct itself at that moment.

At the same time, a terrifying Conqueror's Haki burst forth from Satan's body, spreading outwards to the Valley of Gods.

At that moment, the dragon, who was with two children, was knocked to the ground by the aftershock from the center of God Valley, but he was not seriously injured.

And the child in his arms was also well protected. He glanced at the child in his arms, breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned to look at the rampant Conqueror's Haki.

"I need to take these two children and leave here as soon as possible. The Valley of the Gods is too dangerous now; we can't handle it."

"Besides, I can't go back to the Navy now. All I can do is steal a pirate ship and leave."

At this moment, Dragon knew very well that using a tranquilizer gun on a Celestial Dragon was enough to sentence him to death, or even make him a slave of the Celestial Dragon.

Even his own father couldn't save him.

Moreover, he has two children in his hands, who are the children of Celestial Dragons, and the dying wish of their mother is not to let them fall into the hands of scum like the Celestial Dragons.

So he had to take the two children and leave this place.

This is the only thing he can do now.

"Look, there are two children and a navy man up ahead!"

Just then, a childish, giggling voice reached the dragon's ears.

He looked up and saw Kaido, Gloria, Stussy, and a large group of people walking towards him.

The person who just spoke was... Ivankov.

"The Rocks Pirates?!" Dragon looked at the people in front of him, tightened his grip on the child in his arms, and his heart sank to the bottom.

Am I still unable to protect anything?

"Navy, don't show such hostility." Gloria smiled as she looked at the dragon's changing expression and hostility, but quickly questioned him sharply.

"Especially in front of the strong."

"Tell me, how did you come to be with this child?!"

"The child?" Hearing this, Long was somewhat taken aback: "They didn't take action, but instead asked about the child, and..."

"The people behind them all seem to be residents of God Valley and... slaves of Mary Geoise."

The slave had the hoof of a Celestial Dragon on his body; he recognized the mark.

Why would pirates be with these people? Could it be...?

A suspicion began to form in Long's mind.

"These are the children of the Celestial Dragons, the children of Figarand Gringle. Their mother was a resident of God Valley, but was later killed by Gringle. On her deathbed, she met me and begged me to take them back from the Celestial Dragons so that I could bring them out of God Valley."

"I took advantage of the chaos to snatch the children back and prepare to leave God Valley. I didn't lay a hand on the people of God Valley!" Long quickly said.

When there is a significant disparity in strength between the enemy and ourselves, answer only what the other party asks, and never talk nonsense or give irrelevant answers.

This will only make things worse.

Moreover, the dragon did not want to die young.

This time, he saw that the Navy was not as righteous as he had imagined, nor did it conform to his own sense of justice.

He wants to leave the Navy, or leave this place!

Dragon has not yet been assimilated by the Navy; he is still a passionate young man with ideals and beliefs.

And in the future, he will strive towards his goals and ideals.

I just...like sweating profusely.

"A Celestial Dragon's child?" Gloria and Stussy exchanged a surprised glance.

"Um... Lady Gloria, this must be true."

At this moment, a resident of God Valley cautiously raised his hand.

"I've met these two children and I know their mother, so this navy man is real."

"I just never expected that their father was a Celestial Dragon, and that Celia was also killed by a Celestial Dragon."

Celia is Shanks and Smoker's mother.

Upon hearing this and with some clues, Gloria pieced together the whole story.

A Celestial Dragon harmed a woman, causing her to bear his child, but then, feeling the woman was too lowly, killed her.

This is very much in line with the Celestial Dragons' character.

"Hey, Navy, come with us, after all you saved these two kids," Gloria said.

"Okay!" Long agreed without hesitation.
