The Great Voyage Begins with the Celestial Dragons

The Great Voyage Begins with the Celestial Dragons

Author: The Introverted Pistachio

Summary:

"To be a Celestial Dragon, you must know how to enjoy life: eat the best food, drink the strongest liquor, and be in the most beautiful..."

"As for the world, as long as the world government doesn't fall and as long as the gun in my hand is strong enough, who cares about chaos?"

Luther, a man who transmigrated into the body of a Celestial Dragon, enjoys pleasure while coveting the highest throne.

In short, this is the story of a Celestial Dragon who is not a good person!

Chapter 1 Don Quixote Luther Saint

1500 in the Haiyuan calendar.

The Holy Land, Mary Geoise.

Inside a magnificent palace, gold artifacts were everywhere, and tables and chairs made from the Tree of Adam were casually placed. In one corner, there was even a giant fish tank that was 5 meters high and 20 meters wide, in which three mermaids swam freely.

A low, murmuring voice rose from the previously silent palace:

"Luther...?"

The speaker was a tall, slender boy, around 15 years old.

The boy's fair and clean face revealed a sharp and handsome appearance, and his dark and deep eyes shone with a captivating brilliance, all of which exuded nobility and elegance.

The boy's name was Don Quixote Luther Saint, and he was able to be given a saintly name after his name because of his Celestial Dragon origins.

The Donquixote Family, as descendants of the 20 kings who established the World Government, consider themselves "descendants of the Creator," dominate the privileged class of the World Government, and reside in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.

However, times have changed. Due to some events that happened 10 years ago, some people were expelled from the family, and now only a few members of the Don Quixote family remain.

Aside from Luther, there was only his cousin who was searching the world for merfolk slaves and rarely stayed in the Holy Land.

Even Luther, the last remaining son, was not very bright and accidentally got injured while playing with slaves, which ultimately benefited the current Luther.

Luther never expected that time travel would happen to him.

After sorting through his memories, Luther couldn't help but smile.

No matter who transmigrates into a Celestial Dragon, there's no reason for them not to be happy.

This kind of status, born at the pinnacle, was something Luther desperately desired but was powerless to attain in his previous life.

Although some of the previous owner's reckless actions still caused some pain, daily life was no longer a problem thanks to the medical care provided by the Holy Land.

"Dark!"

Luther raised his hand and whispered a word.

The moment he finished speaking, a burly figure in a white suit appeared in front of him, kneeling on one knee and bowing his head.

"Your Highness Luther!"

Luther looked at Dark with satisfaction; even just looking at his bulging, muscular frame gave him a sense of security.

Dark is a CP0 member known as the 'strongest shield of the Celestial Dragons,' and also his new personal bodyguard.

As for Dark's predecessor, he had already been dealt with because Luther was seriously injured and dying.

"Tell me about the major events that have happened at sea recently," Luther began.

Having transmigrated to the world of One Piece, he wants to understand the current situation.

In the year 1500 of the Sea Calendar, 20 years after the protagonist Luffy set sail, he knew very little about what was happening at this time.

“Your Highness Luther, there have been no major events at sea recently, and everything is under the control of the World Government,” Dark replied respectfully.

Upon hearing this answer, Luther frowned slightly.

My first reaction was that he thought Dark was hiding something.

Considering the Celestial Dragons' captive-like situation in the original storyline, it's not surprising that he had this thought.

However, when he saw Dalk's matter-of-fact expression, he understood.

From the perspective of ordinary pirates and even the Navy, there are always many sensational events on the high seas.

However, CP0, as the Celestial Dragons' strongest shield, generally doesn't pay much attention to major events.

Luther had never seen Dark fight, but he figured that as a member of CP0 protecting the Celestial Dragons, Dark's strength was definitely no less than that of a Vice Admiral, and a bounty of 4-6 million wouldn't be unreasonable.

"Which great pirates are at sea right now?" Luther asked in a different phrasing.

"Baloric Redfield, nicknamed Lone Red, is a great pirate who can form his own crew. His strength is no less than that of the Pirate King Roger. He possesses Observation Haki that allows him to read people's minds. Once captured, he is very difficult to control and prevent from harming Your Highness."

"Edward Newgate, nicknamed Whitebeard, is currently the king of the New World and the strongest pirate. It's best not to mess with him."

"Silbaz Rayleigh, nicknamed Dark King, was the right-hand man of the Pirate King Roger. After Roger's death, he went into seclusion in the Sabaody Archipelago. Capturing him would pose a certain danger to Your Highness."

"Pirates..."

"Alright, that's fine then."

Luther interrupted Dark's introduction.

Hearing Dark's tone, which sounded like he was introducing a slave, he felt uneasy.

If they were to capture Rayleigh and enslave him, it would be hard to say whether they'd found a slave or a master.

Those powerful individuals cannot be forcibly enslaved.

He wasn't averse to slaves; having worked for others in his previous life, he wasn't going to show them any sympathy or pity now that he was in charge.

He wouldn't mind acquiring a few collectibles if the opportunity presented itself.

Through Dalk's account, he also gained a general understanding of the current state of the sea.

As it stands, Redfield hasn't even had a proper fight with the Fleet Admiral yet, Shiki has entered Impel Down, Roger is long gone, and Rayleigh has already retired.

At present, the only pirate worth paying attention to on the high seas is Whitebeard Edward Newgate.

Even future Yonko like Kaido or Big Mom are not worth mentioning right now.

Luther is now the sole heir of Don Quixote, holding a position equivalent to the Celestial Dragon patriarch. With his current power, killing Kaido or Big Mom wouldn't be too difficult for him.

But even though that's what he said, Luther would never do it.

Mobilizing such a vast force for meaningless purposes will only weaken the Don Quixote family further, and in the future, he might become a pig kept by the Five Elders.

With such a high starting point and the external situation developing normally, Luther was already satisfied.

If the Celestial Dragons are truly to be dethroned, it will be at least 20 years from now.

Even if he spends most of his time enjoying himself, he is confident that he can protect himself when the time comes.

"What a wonderful era."

Luther's lips curled up slightly as he walked to the huge fish tank, admiring the fish struggling to swim and waving their beautiful long tails to please him.

While he admired the swimming fish, Dalk behind him remained kneeling on one knee like a loyal servant, his face showing respect without the slightest impatience.

With the help of the reflection from the fish tank, Luther took in all of this.

Dark performed well, but he was still somewhat dissatisfied.

It wasn't directed at Dalk personally, but simply because of his background.

He had read about Dark's information; he was an orphan collected by the World Government from all over the world and had undergone brainwashing and cruel training from a young age.

This experience was good, but Dark's loyalty was not to the Don Quixote family, but to the Celestial Dragons, specifically to the Five Elders who were at the top of the Celestial Dragons.

Such people can be used, but they cannot be the core members.

"Dark!"

"Your Highness Luther!"

“All my slaves have been executed. I need a new batch. Give me a list of headquarters naval personnel, and a list of Impel Down prisoners.”

"understand!"

When can you give it to me?

"Your Highness, complete the mission within one hour!"

After receiving the order, Dark vanished in an instant.

The palace fell silent again after his departure, with only the sounds of Luther teasing the mermaid remaining.

Chapter 2 A Small Request

Boom!

Luther tapped on the fish tank, watching the mermaids who were slightly timid but still lined up, and seeing them trying their best to put on ingratiating smiles.

Because of Luther's previous injury, most of his slaves were executed.

The three little mermaids were spared from disaster because they were a gift from Luther's cousin.

The little mermaids are all quite young, and both their figures and appearances are somewhat immature. However, their similar appearances and identical long pink hair suggest that the three mermaids are triplets.

Luther had kept fish before, but this was the first time he had kept a mermaid, and he found it quite novel.

He could tell that the little mermaid was still mostly afraid of him.

But the little mermaids did a good job with his orders, which was enough for him.

Whether swimming, being fed, or playing, they are exceptionally obedient.

However, no matter how much Luther tried to coax them, the three little mermaids refused to speak.

Luther wasn't in a hurry; he had plenty of time to get them to talk.

Dark didn't keep Luther waiting for long; he said it would be an hour, but Luther returned in less than half an hour.

The information that Luther needed was already recorded in the Holy Land; it just took time to report it to the Five Elders.

Although Luther is a Celestial Dragon, he still needs the approval of the Five Elders for many things.

In order to make life more comfortable in the future, it is important to have a group of strong people who are loyal to you.
