Speaking of which, Tianqing felt that everyone in the original work was excessively afraid of the Celestial Dragons, saying that messing with them would anger the Navy and lead to being hunted down by a Navy Admiral. But even if you pirates didn't fight the Celestial Dragons, weren't you still hunted down by the Navy? Besides, as desperate pirates, wouldn't it be an extreme honor to take a Celestial Dragon down with you? What's there to be afraid of?
Even the protagonist Luffy doesn't dare to really hurt the Celestial Dragons. Even when he witnesses their various atrocities, including the massacre of slaves, pirates, and civilians right in front of them, Luffy shouts fiercely and even punches a few Celestial Dragons away, but ultimately he doesn't dare to kill them. Who knows how many civilians and innocent women those Celestial Dragons have harmed after they survived?
However, Tian Qing is not a saint. This kind of heinous criminal deserves to be killed by everyone. Moreover, he wants to harm her. Does she want to wait for him to go back and bring several generals to take revenge?
Just as Tianqing was lazily sitting in the luxurious seat, eating snacks and fruit while listening to the butler respectfully explaining the major news and information of the One Piece world over the years to "Saint Tianqing" and thinking about the next plan, a pleasant bell rang around Tianqing again.
"This is the voice of the world's consciousness," Tian Qing immediately realized. "I'm afraid that if I weren't the listener, I wouldn't be able to hear this ringing. Although I can hear the joy in it, what consciousness does it represent?"
Tian Qing subconsciously glanced at the Devil's Egg on the back of her hand. The Devil's Egg provided a straightforward translation: Kill one Celestial Dragon, World Favorability +1, Savior Status Duration +1.
Very good. With such straightforward data, Tian Qing immediately confirmed that the translation system installed on the Devil's Egg must have been created by those tech geeks from the Dragon Group. After writing down their names, Tian Qing began to think about why the world consciousness demanded the killing of the Celestial Dragons.
Then, the telegraph bug on the carriage went off, and an angry voice rang out: "I don't care who you are, you dared to kill my child Saint Mark, I, Saint Polo, will never let you get away with this! You don't need to make excuses, we Celestial Dragons all have special sensors on our bodies, and once we die, our families will be notified immediately!"
Before Tian Qing could speak, the voice continued shouting, "Hahahaha, scared now? Let me tell you, Admiral Kizaru is already on his way to kill you. He'll find you soon using the GPS tracker on this carriage!! Just wait in fear for the Celestial Dragons' wrath! Hahahaha!"
With Tian Qing looking at him like he was an idiot, the other party hung up the phone.
The Demon Egg's friendly reminder: The Savior's Aura, Part Three: The Aura of Idiots. The Savior's enemies come in waves, one after another, larger ones appearing after the smaller ones are defeated, like an endless swarm of cockroaches. Moreover, before attacking, once the enemy makes contact with the Savior, they will quickly reveal all their plans, arrangements, and methods to facilitate the Savior's response.
PS
No matter how reckless you are in Chapter 4, the enemies will appear in sequence.
After hearing the enemy's threatening phone call, the butler was completely bewildered. Under the influence of Tian Qing's illusion, he couldn't understand the meaning of Saint Polo's call at all.
Tian Qing chuckled. The other party had installed a locator on the carriage and sent Admiral Kizaru to hunt him down based on the locator's signal. If he had been completely unaware of this, the other party's plan would have made it a bit rushed for him to deal with. But now that you have told me everything, what do I have to be afraid of?
Especially for a listener like Tian Qing, this exposed plan is utterly meaningless.
"Listening ability activated!" Tian Qing looked at the carriage beneath her feet and slowly asked, "Where is the locator?"
"Right under the carriage," the carriage driver readily replied.
He gestured to the guards to put the locator into the mouth of a large fish in the nearby river, and then ordered the carriage to change direction.
According to the butler's previous introduction, the Celestial Dragon Saint Mark, the scumbag who was slapped to death by Ame-chan, was originally scheduled to go to Impel Down, the Navy's prison, to represent the Celestial Dragon family at the signing ceremony of the agreement between the World Government and the pirate forces.
However, Tianqing had no interest in this ritual. Since the World Consciousness said it wanted to kill the Celestial Dragons, Tianqing naturally planned to head to the place where the Celestial Dragons gathered. With the savior aura given by the World Consciousness, Tianqing would probably be able to obtain a lot of things to enhance its strength while completing the mission and eliminating the Celestial Dragons.
Therefore, Tianqing has decided that her destination is the Sabaody Archipelago, the territory ruled by the Celestial Dragons.
The Sabaody Archipelago is located in the middle of the Grand Line, in front of the Red Line. There, on that spot, stands the world's largest mangrove tree, the "Alchiman Mangrove." This tree is so enormous that its numerous roots intertwine and protrude above the water, forming the Sabaody Archipelago.
Because the islands are formed from the roots of large trees, the ground of the islands is essentially the root system. The roots of the Yarchiman mangrove tree secrete large amounts of a special natural resin through respiration. This resin expands when exposed to air, forming numerous bubbles, hence the Sabaody Archipelago is also known as the Soap Bubble Islands.
As a necessary route to the New World, it was an extremely prosperous region during the pirate era.
However, that's all in the past. After the Sea Kings ate Devil Fruits and turned into monsters, attacking ships indiscriminately, the Great Pirate Era came to an end, and the Sabaody Archipelago declined considerably as a result.
However, even a weakened camel is bigger than a horse. Sabaody Archipelago is, after all, a strategic location near the Marine Headquarters. Therefore, the World Government has deployed two EVAs there to ensure the safety of Sabaody Archipelago. In addition, Sabaody Archipelago itself is also an important place for land transportation, so it is still a fairly prosperous city.
Although the butler's introduction indicated that the Sabaody Archipelago had declined considerably, Tianqing was still taken aback by the enormous city before him when the carriage entered the first city of the archipelago. The city walls were high, and inside were multi-tiered houses, with bustling crowds everywhere. Such a prosperous city was just one of the cities on the declining Sabaody Archipelago. How prosperous must the Sabaody Archipelago have been during its heyday in the Great Pirate Era?
Upon entering the city, under Tian Qing's orders, the guards registered an inn as travelers from out of town. Under the influence of Tian Qing's illusion magic, the guards and steward naturally assumed that the unassuming scholar Saint Tian Qing always concealed his identity when traveling, and therefore were not surprised at all.
Meanwhile, Admiral Kizaru stood at the mouth of a river, holding the large fish with the locator attached to it, his face ashen. This damned locator! He had thought the murderers who killed the Celestial Dragons were trying to sneak into the sea underwater, but after waiting at the river mouth for several days, he finally caught this fish.
"You damned murderers, you've successfully angered me now!" Kizaru's wrinkles deepened. Those who knew him well knew that this was his expression when he was furious. Once he showed this expression, even his fellow admirals, Akainu and Aokiji, wouldn't dare to provoke him.
Although as an admiral, Kizaru's mental fortitude is actually quite good, and he usually wouldn't get angry over such a trivial matter, under the influence of the first layer of Ame-no-Tsuru's savior aura—the contradictory aura—Kizaru was burning with rage and only wanted to find the culprit as soon as possible and bring him to justice on the spot.
However, Tianqing was completely unconcerned about the threat from the Marine Admirals. It wasn't that Tianqing was confident in defeating them, but rather because of the special treatment given to her by the World Consciousness—the second layer of the Savior Aura*—meaning that the strength of the enemies appearing before Tianqing was progressively increasing. Therefore, it was estimated that it would still take some time for the Marine Admirals to find Tianqing.

Chapter Five: Brainless and Unhappy
At night, the Celestial Dragon Saint Lorraine, heavily pregnant, walked confidently toward a small house he had secretly built.
To satisfy his own desires, Saint Lorraine ordered the construction of a soundproof little house behind his mansion to fulfill his peculiar and unspeakable fetishes.
Thinking of the beautiful young women he had ordered his guards to capture during the day, Saint Lorraine couldn't help but feel excited. Even his steps, which were usually slow due to his excessive obesity, quickened a bit: "How should we play this time? There seem to be a few toys from that country that came as tribute that we haven't tried yet. Why don't we try them tonight? I wonder what they'll taste like?"
Just as Saint Lorraine was preoccupied with how to toy with the beautiful woman he had just acquired, the guards leading the way suddenly stopped.
"What are you doing? Why aren't you leaving?" His daydreaming interrupted by the sudden stop, Saint Lorraine grew furious. He shoved aside the guards standing in front of him and roared at the people blocking their way, "Who dares to obstruct the footsteps of a world noble?"
It was a strange man wearing a black robe with fiery clouds and an Ultraman mask.
Then Tian Qing spoke, and her voice, disguised by the Ultraman mask, became a hoarse male voice: "My name is Bu Gaoxing (Unhappy)."
Saint Lorraine was taken aback by this abrupt self-introduction, and then couldn't help but curse, "I don't care who you are! Now, in the name of Saint Lorraine, a world nobleman, I order you to come here immediately, kneel down, and lick my boots as punishment for blocking my way!"
Tianqing ignored the other person and continued, "Often, there are two types of people who always appear together: one is always harboring deep resentment and bitterness, with a perpetually sullen and unhappy face; the other is always hot-blooded and recklessly acts without thinking. For example, Sasuke and Naruto, Vegeta and Kakarot, Uryu and Ichigo, and so on."
Saint Lorraine was enraged to see that instead of running over and kneeling to beg for forgiveness, the other man stood there spouting a string of words he couldn't understand. He shoved the guards beside him and yelled, "Are you all blind? Go and seize him right now!!"
The guards did not respond to their master's orders at all; they just stood there blankly, their eyes unusually empty. Under Tian Qing's illusion, they were no different from a large group of puppets.
After listing a whole bunch of main characters' names, Tian Qing stopped, still not quite finished, and pointed at Saint Lorraine: "But right now I'm just literally unhappy, while you're literally clueless."
Then a flash of cold light! Instantly, Saint Lorraine's head flew far away, leaving only a headless body in place, and a pillar of blood shot into the sky.
"So, where is the next clueless one?" Tianqing looked at the list in her hand, which she had ordered to be collected during the day. As former close subordinates of Celestial Dragons, those butlers naturally knew about the residences of other Celestial Dragons, so the list in Tianqing's hand contained the addresses of dozens of Celestial Dragons.
This night on Sabaody Archipelago is destined to leave an indelible mark on the history of the One Piece world.
That night, nearly twenty Celestial Dragons were beheaded. The civilians, who had suffered greatly at the hands of the Celestial Dragons, spread the news with great joy, while the World Government and Navy officials looked grim.
It is said that the World Government's representative stationed in Sabaody Archipelago was awakened from his sleep. He had been sleeping due to alcoholism, but after seeing the information about the assassinations of many Celestial Dragons, he was sobered up and immediately contacted the World Government headquarters, requesting that all Marine Admirals be mobilized to investigate. He also ordered all Marines stationed in Sabaody Archipelago to be deployed to search for the murderer.
As more eyewitness accounts came in, the killer's true identity gradually became clear. The killer's assassination attempt seemed to be targeted only at Celestial Dragons, without intentionally killing others. As a result, many Marines who arrived at the scene and fought the killer survived.
Based on the intelligence gathered from these survivors, the World Government issued its highest-level wanted notice the following morning: the Akatsuki pirate crew, whose member codenamed "Unhappy" had killed dozens of World Nobles overnight, with a bounty of 3 million Berries, dead or alive.
Furthermore, the World Government issued a notice demanding that the pirate forces and the Revolutionary Army fully cooperate in capturing "Grumpy," which greatly displeased the pirate forces and the Revolutionary Army. The three parties then engaged in another verbal battle, arguing fiercely with each other.
Meanwhile, all the Celestial Dragons in the Sabaody Archipelago were gathered in a castle heavily guarded by the Navy, because the assassin known as "Unhappy" had personally admitted that he would return the following night.
Of course, Saint Ameyo, a Celestial Dragon who had just arrived in the Sabaody Archipelago, was also ushered into the villa after her butler and guards presented the relevant documents.
PS: The curtain rises, the show begins.

Chapter Six: Planning and Action
The temporary settlement for the Celestial Dragons was a heavily guarded castle standing alone atop a mountain. The Navy had deployed thousands of soldiers around the castle as guards, and had also transferred the only two vice admirals in the archipelago to the castle for security.
However, since it was a heavily guarded castle, the living conditions were naturally lacking. Therefore, the extravagant Celestial Dragons were naturally very dissatisfied and complained endlessly after entering the castle.
For example, the middle-aged woman sitting next to Tian Qing had already started cursing the navy for the third time in the ten minutes or so after entering the castle hall, to the point that a lot of saliva had accumulated on her bubble headband.
The hoods worn by the Celestial Dragons on Sabaody Archipelago are different from those worn by Celestial Dragons elsewhere. They are unique bubble hoods found only on Sabaody Archipelago. These hoods are not as hard as glass; they are relatively soft and have a certain degree of healing ability. You can even put a hand inside them without them breaking. Therefore, they are highly praised by the Celestial Dragons.
However, these bubble headgear become extremely fragile outside of the Sabaody Archipelago, so Celestial Dragons in other places have to use glass headgear instead. This is probably one of the reasons why the Sabaody Archipelago has become the main gathering place for Celestial Dragons.
"I didn't expect this bubble headgear to have the function of filtering air. Since this headgear is made of resin, the air inside the headgear naturally carries a resinous fragrance. These Celestial Dragons really know how to enjoy themselves." At this moment, Tian Qing also put on a bubble headgear. As the headgear is one of the important symbols of the Celestial Dragons, Tian Qing did not want to give himself away in such a detail.
Originally, Tianqing hadn't planned to launch the assassination of the Celestial Dragons so quickly. However, the world's consciousness, in its eagerness, didn't care about such things and activated Tianqing's savior aura several times in just one day. As a result, various problems arose at the hotel that Tianqing had booked. First, a few thugs came to extort money from the hotel, but after being beaten up by the guards, a local gang came knocking on the door. Moreover, it was a gang that had been disguised as a former pirate crew and had several quite capable members.
After the guards dealt with the gang, the local navy arrived, sending several lieutenant commanders to secretly monitor the hotel, ready to fight at any moment. Finally, unable to bear the ultimate mocking savior aura, Tianqing had no choice but to act ahead of schedule, sneaking out at night to kill over a dozen Celestial Dragons to appease the heavens.
In less than a day, the enemy had gone from thugs to a naval lieutenant commander. If no action was taken soon, it was estimated that a naval admiral would be standing in front of Tian Qing in less than three days.
Only now did Tian Qing truly understand the helplessness of the savior Long Aotian. Being a savior could indeed greatly increase one's strength in a short period of time, but this God was just like an extremely unscrupulous capitalist, who wouldn't stop until he had completely squeezed you dry. Once the savior's behavior did not meet God's expectations, it would immediately turn on him.
The current situation is a dilemma: if they don't kill the Celestial Dragons, the Navy Admirals will come to settle scores within days; but if they do kill the Celestial Dragons, the Navy's elite fighters will probably arrive even faster.
Heaven and earth are ruthless, treating all things like straw dogs. Now, Tian Qing has proven this point with her own experience. No matter where you come from, as long as you sign the savior's contract of servitude, the world's consciousness will treat you like a straw dog without any courtesy. As for the previously promised time limit and benefits, they are completely non-existent.
Left with no other choice, Tianqing took action. After showing the World Government his Celestial Dragon identity documents, he infiltrated the castle protecting the Celestial Dragons.
Currently, there are about a hundred Celestial Dragons gathered in the castle. It can be said that, apart from the Celestial Dragons of the Holy Land Mary Geoise, almost all other Celestial Dragons are here.
"Alright, let's begin." Tian Qing slowly raised her hands, preparing to form a hand seal.
Then, just as Tian Qing was about to make her move, the earth began to shake violently. Faced with this great power of nature, the once sturdy castle seemed as fragile as a pile of building blocks, and countless pieces of roof debris rained down like hailstones.
"What's going on! Why is there such a strong earthquake here?!"
"Navy! Where are your men? Come and rescue me!"
"Help! You bunch of idiots, come back and save me! Don't run away!!"
Amidst the screams and shouts of the Celestial Dragons, the Marines stationed inside the castle made their move.
These marines were all officers of lieutenant commander rank or higher, each possessing considerable strength. They were all masters who had mastered at least one of the "Six Styles" martial arts techniques and had speeds beyond that of ordinary people. Dealing with the collapse of the buildings was naturally a piece of cake for them. A dozen or so marines flew to the air above the crowd with a moon step, punching and kicking away the falling debris one by one. Meanwhile, the other marines swiftly flew across the ground, pulling the few Celestial Dragons who couldn't dodge out of the danger zone in just a few breaths.
Just as the Celestial Dragons breathed a sigh of relief and were about to stand up and display their aristocratic bearing,
"Crack!!!" The entire roof of the castle was ripped off by a giant claw.

Chapter Seven: Monsters on the Grand Line
The people in the castle looked up in terror, but to their surprise, they saw no starry night sky. Instead, they saw a giant eye staring menacingly at them through the open roof of the castle.
"It's a Sea King monster!!" some experienced marines cried out in despair.
"How is this possible! How could a monster have come so close to the castle and no one had noticed?!"
"Where are the thousands of navy personnel stationed around? What are they doing?!"
At this point, the naval soldiers stationed near the castle were surprised to find that a tall monster was standing in front of the castle hill, which they had been strictly monitoring. It was holding the roof of the castle with one hand, tilting its head, and curiously peering at the people inside the castle through the roof with one eye, like a naughty child lifting the lid of an anthill to observe the termites inside.
"It's a monster!! Quick, call EVA!!"
After so many years of fighting against the Sea King-type monsters, the naval soldiers have gained rich combat experience. Some of them began to clear the area and evacuate the residents, while others began to launch long-range attacks on the monster. Although their long-range firepower was only a tickle to the monster, it could attract the monster's attention and prevent it from causing widespread destruction.
"Don't worry, judging from the size of its eyes, this monster isn't very big, so its intelligence probably isn't too high either! The naval firepower outside will soon lure it away!!" a vice admiral shouted from inside the castle, trying to calm the people down.
"Don't shout! Everyone lie down! Don't attract the monster's attention!!"
The ground was already a mess, but in this life-or-death situation, even the most temperamental Celestial Dragons had to shut their mouths and lie down on the dirty ground like the servants and marines next to them.
Only Tian Qing wore a wry smile; she'd been thoroughly tricked by the world's consciousness! Just moments before, upon seeing the monster, Tian Qing was astonished to discover that it, like herself, possessed the blessing of the world's consciousness. This was actually a monster with a savior's aura! How could such a monster be a low-intelligence one!
So when the lieutenant general ordered everyone to lie down and not attract the monster's attention, Tian Qing clearly saw a hint of mockery in the monster's big eyes. This monster could actually understand the universal language!
As for the actions of those people in the castle to avoid attracting the monster's attention, they were completely useless. As a fellow savior, Tian Qing naturally knew very well that this monster came to eliminate the Celestial Dragons. Now that the Celestial Dragons in the castle had been confirmed, how could it be attracted by mere long-range firepower?
So Tian Qing didn't squat down at all, but instead drew her snake-shaped sword: "Sage Mode activated! Snake-shaped sword * Resurrection!"
The Serpent Sword *Tenku* is a new function of the serpent sword that Tensei recently developed based on the Tenku taijutsu of the Hyuga clan. Only the specially made serpent sword in Tensei's hands has this ability!
