One Piece: True Several Thousand Hands, rampaging across Marineford!

"Notify the people below."

The five elders, who seemed to be intellectuals, instructed: "Surround the last core island and try to wipe them out in one fell swoop. If that's not possible, then you must capture all the important figures on the list, including Ryder. Don't let a single one escape!"

"Yes!"

The order was relayed.

The pace of advancement is faster.

Not long after.

They then dealt with most of the areas, slaughtering hundreds of thousands, or even millions, before arriving at the most central island and surrounding it completely.

"Are you sure Ryder and the others are on this island?"

The five elders, who seemed to be intellectuals, questioned, "Don't get it wrong. The journey has been far too smooth. Our losses are greater in Miller's hands."

“No mistake, Ryder gathers important executives and members together for a meeting every year, and this meeting has continued to this day without any change.”

The CP organization's lackeys nervously relayed the intelligence they had gathered.

The five elders, like intellectuals, had no doubts.

They've been monitoring this intelligence for many years, so there won't be any problems.

"Hahaha!"

The old man with the mustache laughed and said, "You're too nervous. There's absolutely no problem. This time, we'll eliminate the threat of Ryder and deal with Kahn and the others as well. We can also get rid of the Navy Headquarters, which is a discarded pawn."

Killing three birds with one stone inevitably made them somewhat proud.

"As for Miller, whom you mentioned, he's a madman. Ryder is no match for him."

They didn't think much of Ryder. If Ryder really wanted to do something, he would have done it already. He was killed by Kahn, a high-ranking official, and he didn't make a fuss. In fact, he hasn't done anything to their World Government in recent years.

Occasionally, there might be minor disagreements, and they will take the initiative to mediate.

If it weren't for Ryder's innate abilities that made them dislike him, the Five Elders might have considered Ryder instead of Kahn.

But it's a battle between the old and new gods.

There is no need for a powerful force lurking nearby.

The CP chief said, "I'll go."

"unnecessary."

The Five Elders, who seemed like intellectuals, laughed and said, "We should crush them squarely and go see that Ryder together. He is the most likely person to reach the top since the end of the Rocks era."

The three Five Elders strode confidently at the front.

"Humph!"

Steelbone gave a soft, cold snort.

However, it must be admitted that the gap in strength between him and Ryder has widened, and it is impossible for him to catch up in his lifetime.

This time we will see Ryder die.

He was very happy.

"Why is nobody here?"

"Something's strange..."

Although surprised, they continued on, only quickened their pace.

When they all entered the hall.

I saw a sentence on the wall.

A bunch of idiots, you fell for it! Hehehe!

Moriah's mocking words on the wall were the greatest mockery. Ryder seemed to see through their tricks and treated them like clowns, making fun of them.

These clowns are even smug about it.

Chapter 373 Battle Against the Red-Haired Pirates

The five elders, who seemed to be intellectuals, stared wide-eyed in disbelief, unable to comprehend what they were seeing.

There was no one on the core island.

Ryder...

None of those important figures, none of those important figures on their lists, were there!

They were lied to.

They were fooled by Ryder, whom they looked down on!

The arrogant and haughty Five Elders could not accept this. They considered themselves wise and believed that everything was within their plan.

Only now do they realize how clownish and foolish I was, how I underestimated my opponents and overestimated myself, how clever I was.

It turned out to be the case.

Ryder's annual meeting was just a smokescreen; his real purpose was to lure them all here today to accomplish some plan of his own...

As they fought their way through, the Five Elders finally sensed something was wrong: there were too few people, and no civilians were present, as if the lowly people had been pre-arranged and taken away.

He asked why the untouchables weren't there.

The answer was that Ryder had long ago prohibited civilians from living in the area.

At that time, they thought Ryder was stupid. Times had changed, and even their world government had to appease those lowly people.

How dare he, a mere Ryder, do that?!

At that time, they were complacent, thinking that Ryder's vision was too narrow and that he couldn't understand the world situation and the changes that were taking place.

Only noble people like them can understand the world situation and act accordingly. No matter how times change or how amazing the people below are, they can always become the ultimate winners.

"We've been scammed."

"Ryder and his gang are really cunning! But how did they know we would come?"

"..."

Many army generals and important figures in the hall were puzzled. Could it be that there was a traitor among them? Otherwise, why would Ryder and the others have all run away? Moria left behind such insulting words about the person on their kill list.

Many of them were seething with hatred. As people who had long held high positions, when had they ever been subjected to such humiliation?!

That Moriah deserves to die!

Not quite right.

Something's not right!

The five elders, who seemed to be intellectuals, suddenly felt a sense of foreboding.

I want to escape this place as soon as possible.

"What are they trying to do by luring us here?"

The old man with the mustache asked curiously, "They must have some purpose, right? Could this be some kind of trap? But why can't we see anyone? If it's a trap, they probably wanted to catch us off guard, but we've already reacted, and we don't have that chance now."

"We've killed quite a few of their men along the way. Doesn't Ryder care about them at all? Or is Ryder afraid?"

"..."

Hearing what the Five Old Stars with the Eight-Character Mustache said.

The crowd erupted in chaos.

"Hahahahaha..."

"Ryder, you coward!"

"Although I don't know how they knew we were coming to attack, Ryder is really cowardly and ruthless. He abandoned so many people who followed him just to survive. I thought he was a big shot, but I didn't expect him to be such a coward!"

“We’ve already killed so many people, Ryder must have run far away by now, but without such a large force, the threat posed by Ryder’s forces will no longer exist.”

"..."

Inside the hall, laughter and mockery were deafening.

"uncertain."

The CP chief said, "Most of the people we took down were insignificant small fry. Ryder took away all the core figures and important cadres. The vast majority of them were people on the kill list. They are the core. With them around, the power can be rebuilt sooner or later."

"Although times are different, there are always ambitious people in every era. Even without pirates, there would be a lot of people willing to follow the strong."

"..."

The five elders, who seemed to be intellectuals, paused for a moment, then shouted, "Go! Go now! Don't stay here!"

"..."

The CP chief's pupils contracted.

boom!!!!!

boom!!!!!

boom!!!!!

A deafening roar came from afar, clearly reaching the core island. It unsettled everyone present, and many of the weaker individuals turned pale.

The enormous sound made every island tremble, including this most central and largest island!

The three Five Elders who entered the core island were: the CP0 Chief of Staff, the newly appointed young Field Marshal, an older Army General, a newly promoted Army General, and a hidden, mysterious powerhouse...

They all sensed a danger, a deep-seated panic.

We must escape!

Get out of there as soon as possible!

The weaker ones swayed unsteadily, unable to even stand, and one by one they staggered.

"Lord Five Elders, something terrible has happened! A massive explosion has occurred outside!!!"

“The army soldiers on the perimeter and the CP members suffered heavy casualties... There were explosions everywhere, so we had no choice but to rush here.”

"..."
