One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

Luo said with a solemn expression, "The life force and souls of those slaughtered slaves will be transformed into new life by Im's power. In this way, even if Satan and Pit's souls are annihilated, they can be recreated by him. Not only that, but the excess life force and soul energy can also be transformed into energy that can be used to power Uranus, the Heavenly King. Therefore, we cannot hesitate any longer. We must take action and destroy the Abyss, which is Im's gaping maw."

After hearing his explanation, Black Horse and Akainu immediately realized the seriousness of the situation. Without hesitation, they exited the dream world. Akainu immediately walked outside, his body emitting a large amount of ethereal energy.

The next moment, with a deafening roar, a massive pillar of fiery red magma shattered the roof of the Marshal's Mansion, made a bend in the air, broke through multiple sound barriers, and shot into the depths of the sacred land like a volcanic eruption.

At the entrance of the Marshal's Mansion, Sherlock stood up abruptly with a cold expression, his hand on the rapier at his waist. He was about to leap out to intercept Akainu when, at that moment, Gringle, with a serious expression, appeared not far away and darted towards them, shouting, "Sherlock, wait! Leave Akainu to me. I have other important matters for you to attend to."

"What am I to do at a time like this?" Sherlock frowned and turned around, only to see a gleaming blade silently thrusting towards his heart. The one wielding the blade was none other than his father, Fergal Greene!

"Father! What are you doing?!"

Sherlock was shocked. The ground beneath his feet exploded, and he was thrown backward. At the same time, he reached for his sword to try to stop it, but it was too late.

The long sword thrusting at him suddenly grew hundreds of times larger, piercing through his chest with a soft thud, and strangling together hundreds of members of the Divine Knights behind him who hadn't had time to react.

"KROOM! Wave Impact!"

Chapter 844 Im

Deep within the ruined city of Pangu, fully armed Holy Land guards escorted terrified slaves toward a deep abyss exposed by the destruction of Pangu.

At the edge of that bottomless abyss stood a group of indifferent members of the Knights of God. Among the nine core members of the Knights of God, Mamayer, whose seniority was second only to Gringu, was a short, punk-style old man. He was wielding his long sword, unleashing sharp sword energy to shred the various race slaves brought before him. Then, a group of burly and tall CP members pushed the pieces of flesh into the abyss ahead.

The prolonged massacre had stained the shattered ground a dark red, and the air was filled with a nauseating stench.

Such a horrific, hellish scene sent chills down the spines of even the Holy Land Guardians, who only knew how to obey the World Government's orders, and they felt a pang of pity.

Only the members of the Knights of God, who were used to such scenes, remained unmoved. Many of them even revealed a bloodthirsty excitement in their eyes and couldn't help but draw their weapons and join the slaughter.

Stimulated by this horrific scene, not all the slaves sent here were unwilling to resist or escape. However, no matter how much they wanted to escape this hell, their bodies were beyond their control. Or rather, their bodies were controlled by some invisible force, irresistibly drawn towards Mamaye and the others, like a flock of lambs willingly offering their necks to be slaughtered.

Tears of fear and despair streamed from their eyes, but they couldn't even utter a sound of howling.

Suddenly, an angry shout came from a group of slaves being escorted by guards.

"What are you bastards doing? These slaves are mine! You have no right to take them away! I bought them all at a high price; they are my personal property. Even the Five Elders cannot arbitrarily deprive me of my personal property!"

Having been slaughtering for over ten hours, Mamaye, already exhausted, frowned upon hearing the shouts from the crowd. Her fierce eyes darted over in that direction. "Who's making a racket? Grab him!"

However, the Holy Land Guard standing there did not obey orders, not because they dared to disobey Mamaye's orders, but because the speaker was a Celestial Dragon.

However, soon, two members of the Order of the Gods in full armor stepped out from beside Mamaye, rushed into the crowd, dragged a green-haired Celestial Dragon in front of Mamaye, and casually threw him into the bloodstains on the ground.

The extremely foul stench and the large amount of blood and bits of flesh that covered his body made Musgarud immediately feel nauseous and began to vomit violently. At the same time, fear and shock appeared in his eyes as he looked around.

He never imagined that the purpose of the Holy Land Guard bringing the slaves he had hidden away, intending to release them at some point, to this place was to massacre them.

This discovery left Musgard's mind blank, his body trembling with a mixture of anger and fear. Aside from his illustrious Celestial Dragon status, he was, after all, just an ordinary person without any fighting ability. Faced with the hellish scene before him, he was terrified, his face turning pale and his legs going weak.

With a loud slap, a hand landed heavily on his face, sending Musgarud spinning like a top into the air. He spun around five or six times before collapsing dazedly into the blood and grime, his cheek swollen high, teeth flying out of his mouth, and blood flowing from his mouth and nose.

"So you're the one who said these lowly slaves are your personal property?" Mamaye stared grimly at Musgarud, who was sprawled on the ground, unable to get up. "You bunch of trash! If it weren't for the interests and prestige of the Nineteenth Royal Family, you scum who only know how to live a life of debauchery should be thrown into the sea to fend for yourselves, just like these slaves. Who do you think is working hard behind the scenes to provide you with this life of luxury and extravagance? The prestige of the world's nobility, the prestige of God, is ruined by trash like you. It's because of you that those lowly insects always harbor thoughts of defying God!"

As Mamaye spoke, she waved her hand, "This worthless piece of trash, throw him down."

A knight immediately stepped forward, grabbed the unconscious Musgarud, and without hesitation threw him into the bottomless abyss ahead. Musgarud immediately plummeted into the dark abyss.

Just then, a figure darted out from the crowd, using Moonwalk to catch up, and jumped directly into the abyss, reaching out to grab the falling Musgarud.

"Hmm?" Mamaye frowned. Just as he was about to draw his sword, he saw the abyss suddenly tremble and release a huge suction force. This caused a strong wind to rise on the ground. People who were close to the edge of the abyss, whether they were Holy Land Guards, slaves, or members of the Knights of God, were all pulled by this sudden and huge suction force and fell into the depths of the abyss with a whooshing sound.

At the same time, a phantom pentagram appeared beside Mamaye. Nassuro, looking rather grim, appeared wielding the Onikiri and said coldly, "The life energy and soul energy are insufficient. Satan and Pit, conceived by Lord Im, cannot be fully born. We must speed things up. Once they are resurrected, we must immediately gather a large army to besiege G5 and annihilate Rorschach! He is too dangerous; to avoid any unforeseen complications, we must eliminate him as soon as possible!"

"It's all that stubborn old man Kong's fault. I told him to capture those Holy Land residents and send them over, but he dragged his feet and wasted too much time." Mamaye was a little annoyed, but at this moment, the resurrection of Satan and Pit was obviously the most important thing, and the matter of Kong and Akainu could be put aside for the time being.

Nasujiro looked at the large, dark mass of slaves, the Holy Land Guards, and the many Celestial Dragons standing in the distance under their protection, and said in an icy voice, "Knights of God, listen to my command: kill everyone else here and send their corpses into the abyss. Prioritize killing those pampered trash."

"Don't hold back. Their existence is for this day. Although they are useless, the blood flowing in their veins is still that of the Nineteen Kings, the most suitable fertilizer to serve as nourishment. With their lives added, perhaps even their ancestor, the Nineteen Kings, can be conceived."

He looked at Freya and the other Celestial Dragons in the distance with a cold and indifferent gaze.

Upon hearing his command, the Knights of God did not hesitate for a moment. They immediately dispersed, brandishing their blades like tigers among sheep, and charged into the dense crowd, instantly unleashing a bloodbath.

The massacre included not only slaves, but also members of the Holy Land Guard, members of the CP organization, World Government officials, Marines stationed in the Holy Land, and Celestial Dragons who were filled with terror and disbelief.

Apart from the Knights of God themselves, everyone else in the Holy Land was among those slaughtered.

In an instant, shrill screams rang out from all directions, and the crowd erupted into chaos as they pushed and shoved each other in a desperate escape.

“Let’s make our move too.” Mamaye stepped forward, gripping her long sword. With a single horizontal slash, a fan-shaped beam of light, hundreds of meters long, sliced ​​through the chaotic crowd, instantly taking the lives of hundreds.

Nasujiro also swung his sword, and a waterfall of cold air surged from his longsword. With a single slash, ice formed for a thousand meters, freezing thousands of people. Then, with another horizontal slash, he shattered their bodies, sweeping all the remains into the trembling abyss.

One by one, the powerful core members of the God's Knights attacked, and the Holy Land Guards and CP members present had no chance to resist; they could only be slaughtered.

As countless corpses were dumped into the abyss, a completely different scene unfolded at the bottom, in the unseen darkness.

There are no bloody scenes like those in a hell of flesh and blood, no mountains of corpses, no rivers of blood. Instead, there are only clusters of flowers and lush greenery covering the mountains and plains. On the verdant plains, bright flower buds, more than ten meters high, rise up, their petals unfolding and blooming one by one.

In the fastest-blooming bud, Satan curled up like a baby growing in the womb, a green umbilical cord connecting its navel to the bud's root, greedily absorbing the nutrients it received.

On the nearby hillside, Im took off the black robe that he had always worn, and stretched out a pair of fair and slender hands, holding an oil painting, gently stroking the blue-haired girl depicted in the painting.

“Lily, even if your immortality surgery can grant me eternal life, this body is still decaying after eight hundred years. I know that it is not our bodies that are decaying, but my soul. To watch familiar faces die and turn into bones over such a long period of time, this is the curse of immortality.”

In the glass of the oil painting in front of her, Im's face was reflected, looking just like Vivi's, with the same blue wavy hair and a delicate and beautiful face.

Im put down the oil painting in his hand, raised his hand and stroked his fair and smooth cheek, the movement as gentle as if he were stroking a lover's face.

She murmured as if in a dream, "I'm sorry, Lily, I need a new body so that my decaying soul can feel youth again. But don't worry, the one I love will always be you, so I will use your descendant, a member of the Nefertari family, as the vessel for my soul. Her name is Nefertari Vivi, and she looks exactly like you. Tell me, isn't this the destiny that Joy Boy spoke of, spanning eight hundred years?"

"Unfortunately, eight hundred years later I saw another you, another Poseidon, but I didn't see another Joy Boy. The destiny he spoke of was just his fantasy before he died."

As Im murmured, the flower garden where they were suddenly violently shaken. The huge tremor caused the flower buds on the grass to shake violently, and Satan was even shaken out of a flower bud, falling onto the grass covered in sticky liquid, and opening his cloudy eyes blankly.

The sudden change interrupted the memories of the past deep within Im's eyes, which aroused some anger in her. She coldly looked up at the clear blue sky above, her deep gaze seeming to pierce through this strange space and see the abyss outside.

Outside, under the shocked and furious gazes of Nasujiro, Mameyer, and the others, Akainu, whose lower body had transformed into a giant pillar of magma, flew over the chaotic crowd like a meteor, leaving a long trail of black smoke. He smashed into several members of the Knights of God who jumped up to stop him, and raised his right fist to unleash a massive fire breath at the abyss in front of him.

The towering torrent of lava, carrying the terrifying impact of the volcanic eruption, crashed into the abyss, causing the pitch-black depths to tremble violently.

"Damn it! I knew the Navy was all unreliable, kill him!"

Enraged, Nasujuro Sei transformed into a massive skeletal horse, wreathed in black flames, and soared into the sky, slashing at Akainu with his sword.

"Get out of my way!"

But as soon as he rushed in front of Akainu, he was struck in the face by a black and red lightning bolt-wrapped ghost dog. His entire upper body was smashed apart by Akainu's punch, and then he was swept away by a large amount of lava and fell into the abyss.

Before Mameyer and the others, who were shocked by Akainu's sudden display of power, could surround him, Akainu, who had flown above the abyss, suddenly stretched out his hands, grabbed his chest, and pulled it to both sides. The rolling magma parted to reveal an inner space that was stretched open by dark Haki.

Inside his split chest, glass containers filled with purple liquid and fiery red stones were neatly stacked, numbering in the thousands at a glance.

Mamaye's scalp tingled and her eyes widened.

"Explosive rocks? So many explosive rocks?"

His voice trembled, and an overwhelming fear filled his eyes. He screamed, "Akainu! Are you insane? If all these explosive rocks detonate here, the entire Holy Land, no, the Red Line, will be blown to pieces! You'll die too! Stop right now!"

Akainu grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. The Haki that protected the explosive rocks stored in his chest was released, and his magma-like body immediately closed, squeezing and burning the thousands of explosive rocks inside his body.

"Is that so? Isn't that exactly what I wanted? You old fogies who hold positions of power without doing any work, sitting in high places in the World Government, possessing the world's greatest power and military might, yet you just watch as this world is filled with chaos and becomes riddled with holes. Roger was a damn bastard, but you are even worse than him!"

"I've had enough of you old devils pointing fingers at me. This world doesn't need immortal monsters to lead it, so just die!"

His body swelled up as if inflated, and rolling magma, carrying explosive rocks that shone and radiated heat like small suns, erupted out like a blooming firework, shooting into the abyss like a meteor, and then exploding with a bang!

In an instant, it was as if a sun had suddenly appeared in the abyss before the horrified Mamaye and the others, radiating endless light and heat.

The terrifying and boundless energy erupted, instantly vaporizing the members of the Knights of God who were on the edge of the abyss, including the strongest core members, such as Mamaye, who was comparable to a general, and reducing them to ashes.

In the abyss, beneath Akainu, Nasujuro let out a terrified scream. His skeletal horse body, which had been rapidly healing, collapsed like melting ice and snow as the sun blazed overhead. Under this pure energy bombardment, he had no chance of recovery; his entire body vaporized in the endless light, instantly evaporating. Even the Supreme Grade Sword, the First Generation Kitetsu, which he held, melted into liquid in the millions of degrees of heat.

The bottomless, pitch-black abyss shattered with a deafening roar, and endless light rose from the ruins of Pangu City, expanding wildly and sweeping across all directions. The earth crumbled and disintegrated amidst this dazzling light, large swathes of it collapsing and breaking apart, and countless people evaporated and vanished within the light.

Near the Marshal's Mansion, after listening to Black Horse and Law's explanation, Kong and Sengoku were still running towards the Abyss, on their way to support Akainu, when they saw the sun suddenly rise before them. Engulfed by this blazing explosion, they were reduced to defenseless ordinary people, blasted into the air by the shockwave, coughing up blood as their bones shattered with a crackling sound.

"ROOM!" Law roared, desperately unleashing the power of the Op-Op Fruit. A massive surgical space covering half of the Holy Land suddenly unfolded, only to shatter instantly under the sweeping shockwave. But at the critical moment, Law's power had already been successfully activated, teleporting Kong, Sengoku, Black Horse, and some of the nearest Marines from the vicinity of the Fleet Admiral's Mansion, causing them to fall into the sea towards Paradise.

Even though he used the surgical space to take people away from the holy land, he couldn't completely avoid the shockwaves spreading from the holy land. In the midst of the violent impact, he was involuntarily thrown thousands of meters and crashed into the sea.

Severely injured by the shockwave and on the verge of death, Luo barely managed to turn his head and look at the towering Red Line continent. What he saw was a cliff tens of thousands of meters high collapsing amidst endless light. Below the cliff, the sea surged with waves hundreds of meters high. At this moment, the entire world seemed to be trembling violently because of the sun rising above the Red Line continent.

On this day, countless people across the vast ocean of the Grand Line witnessed this light that filled the sky.

If you look towards the Holy Land from Sabaody Archipelago, you will be horrified to see that the Red Earth continent, which stretches across the sea like a giant mountain range, looks as if it has been bitten by something. There is a clear gap in the place where the Holy Land used to be, which can be seen even from hundreds of kilometers away.

Amidst this endless light, deep within the vanished holy land, a deafening roar of fury resounded.

The next moment, the already collapsed and shattered ground of the holy land exploded open, and a huge black shadow that blotted out the sky rushed out, with three pitch-black horns pointing to the sky and a gaping maw of abyss-like fangs, letting out a roar that resounded through the heavens and the earth.

This is a black monster with two human hands that are hundreds of meters long, three black demon horns on its head, a face like a goat, and a body as large as a mountain.

At this moment, it tore open the shattered earth with its two enormous hands, and stretched its massive, mountain-like upper body out of the ground, roaring to the sky with a sound that shook the heavens and the earth.

Chapter 845 Thank you, Uncle Sakazuki [The End]

In the New World, ten thousand meters above Marine Headquarters G1 Island, Rorschach and Enel, aboard the Pluton battleship, broke through the thick sea of ​​clouds, revealing their figures as they gazed at the dazzling white light rising from the direction of the Holy Land.

A familiar life force quickly vanished as the light that pierced the sky above the new world shone, but Luo Xia could no longer show any sadness on his face.

His face was expressionless, and his eyes, as blue as the sky, were icy cold.

The cold, raised cannons on the bow of the Hades warship shone with an equally dazzling light, locking onto the enormous black shadow crawling out from the depths of the shattered earth within the Holy Land.

Beside this light radiating terrifying energy fluctuations, a jumble of chaotic thoughts flashed through Luo Xia's mind.

In truth, Rorschach had long held no interest in the past of this world, in the so-called historical issues that occurred eight hundred years ago. Although he had the opportunity, compared to the vast majority of people in this world, to collect all four red Poneglyphs that pointed to Laugh Tale, he did not do so.

All he knew was that, regardless of whether the side representing justice for eight hundred years was Joy Boy, a pirate, or Im, representing the powerful, the ultimate loser would inevitably harbor resentment and want to one day overthrow the opponent's rule.

Even in his world, throughout history, wasn't this the case in every dynasty?

Even if the victor had been Joy Boy instead of Im, it couldn't guarantee that after eight hundred years, the world under his rule would be a peaceful and prosperous era where all races were equal.

In any era, a regime that has enjoyed a long period of unchallenged dictatorial rule will inevitably become corrupt; this is almost a historical inevitability.

Therefore, the decision to destroy the World Government doesn't require knowing the past; it's simply because they are utterly corrupt, and if their rule continues, the world will only get worse.

The revolutionary army founded by Dragon was likely based on the same idea.

Roger, who single-handedly created the Great Pirate Era and pushed chaos to its peak, may have thought the same way. However, apart from being recognized by pirates, most civilians in the world deeply resented and hated him.

Rorschach traveled from the North Blue to here, his footsteps covering almost the entire Grand Line, and he never heard a single civilian say anything like how wonderful the pirate era was or that Roger was a great hero.
