Double-transformation: I, Sakura Haruno! Will crush the pirates!

He raised his trident and ripped open the door twice, then Gillinghorm stepped inside.

The room contained several enormous glass jars, each with its own power supply to ensure the sealing devices were functioning properly. The largest of the jars was filled with swirling purple mist.

That is the killing weapon that Caesar Courland is developing; according to his plan, there should have been a compression step.

However, because the gas was too unstable, Caesar Courant was looking for a way to compress it all, but his experiments failed repeatedly, and in the end he could only seal it in this form.

But at this moment, Gillingam doesn't need a portable, explosive realm of death. All he needs to do is release these poisonous gases and make the entire Punk Hazard a true realm of death.

In this way, even if the World Government completely withdraws, Sakura will not be able to obtain the island.

"You trash from the lower realm, die!"

Armament Haki coiled around the trident, and Gillingham, his face contorted with rage, thrust it forcefully towards the glass jar in front of him.

Click!

Where the glass jar was hit, a crack suddenly appeared, and purple poisonous gas began to leak out from the crack.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

From the moment Jilingom's laughter erupted, the entire Punk Hazard was engulfed in an unprecedented and terrifying outburst. Brilliant purple flames soared into the sky, while violent poisons fell to the earth and spread outwards.

Accompanied by a scorching halo powerful enough to incinerate soil and tear apart steel, it swept up like a sharp blade with a roar, rising inch by inch, turning the outlines of matter into smoke under the shockwave.

The toxic gas was ignited, causing a secondary explosion that instantly created a hemispherical bubble on the ground, with blue lightning shooting out and radiating a magnificent and boundless light.

"I'm late..."

In the forest, Sakura was struck dumb and retreated without thinking.

"Hahaha, Sakura Haruno, consider this poisonous land our gift to you on your coronation!" With undisguised disgust and murderous intent, Somaz coldly turned around, "No need to thank us too much!"

He then used the ring of thorns that formed sharp blades to sever his thigh, and before the blood and limbs could fall, he lunged into the explosion and evaporated completely.

"Damn scum, trash, villain!"

The furious girl cursed and retreated while regretting her carelessness.

The island of Punk Hazard is riddled with cracks, and fissures appear on the supporting island structure. The earth groans and shatters continuously, and the spreading poisonous gas indiscriminately corrodes all life, turning all plants and animals into silicon crystals.

It keeps expanding, expanding, and expanding again...

With the developers' malice, the damage gradually began to spread from land to sea.

Seawater, which is a liquid, reacted rapidly upon contact with the poison gas, forming a flowing purple venom. All the fish and microorganisms in the seawater died, and they floated densely on the surface of the sea.

'Leviathan, take Kuina and get out of here!'

Through the connection of chakra, Sakura transmits the message to the speedboat floating in the sky.

'Then what will you do?'

Leviathan's anxious voice came through, his usual languid demeanor gone.

'I'll try to see if I can solve the problem of the poison gas on the island. Don't worry about me, this poison gas can't corrupt even those with powerful auras!'

Sakura gave her one last reply, then enveloped herself in Armament Haki and charged into the poisonous fog.

Sensing the break in the chakra connection, Leviathan gritted his teeth and began to retreat with Kuina.

The huge speedboat's propellers turned sideways and at the back, propelling the boat toward the direction beyond the island.

"Hey, Leviathan, what are you doing? Sakura-nee hasn't come out yet!"

Upon noticing the scenery around the ship receding, Kuina quickly stepped forward and grabbed her, attempting to seize control of the airship.

However, the shadows inside the cabin suddenly spread, entangling Kuina's hands and feet and pinning her to the ground.

Leviathan also turned around, his face showing even more worry than Kuina's, but the determination in his eyes remained unwavering.

"This is the captain's order, obey it obediently!!!"

Chapter 238 The Other Shore Flower Blooms, the Emperor of the Sea!

"These shady characters are indeed researching shady things!"

Outside the island, Dragon, aboard a large revolutionary ship, raised his hand with an embarrassed expression.

The toxic seawater has begun to spread with the ocean currents, but he currently has no solution to this problem.

"Ice Age!"

The lazy sound lingered, falling from the sky.

A man wearing a blue shirt and a white suit jumped into the sky and stretched out his hands towards the ever-spreading toxic seawater below.

Ice spread from his fingertips and fell into the sea. In an instant, the frost solidified the spreading poison, dividing the entire sea into a pure white glacier and a purple polluted area, with the spot where Kuzan fell as the boundary.

"Kuzan...you..."

Dorrag's eyes widened as the miniature tornado in his palm dissipated.

"Alala, I was just doing my duty." Kuzan exhaled a puff of white mist and looked solemnly at the island shrouded in poison gas. "But I can't deal with the things on the island either."

"That's none of your concern. Our territory will naturally be handled by our king!" Enel descended from the sky with lightning, one foot planted on the bow of the ship, speaking arrogantly.

Within the island, after being repeatedly plowed by the echoing flames and toxins, the entire Punk Hazard has become a literal forbidden zone.

Using her Haki to resist the poison gas, Sakura stood atop the highest mountain in Punk Hazard, overlooking the island that had been vibrant just minutes before.

"Do you, who despise this world so much, truly deserve the glory of the Creator?"

Sakura sighed softly, and the petrifying debris was shattered by the rising chakra.

The immense chakra forged by his special physique was transformed into Wood Release chakra without reservation, and emerald flames surged, beginning to assimilate the surrounding toxins.

The girl walked silently across the earth, leaving behind a trail of footprints from which grass and trees continued to grow.

Emerging step by step from the dark, poisonous gas, chakra seeped into the earth from beneath her feet, causing vegetation to grow and die rapidly.

The vegetation iterates through the cycle of life and death, and finally, the first generation of vines, capable of resisting poisonous gases, absorbs the toxic nutrients and grows against the wind.

Sakura stepped forward, reached out and gently grasped the life that was dancing in hell, using her Wood Release to disassemble it and analyze its entire structure.

"Thanks for your hard work!"

Holding the remaining crumbs in her hands, Sakura solemnly buried them in the soil.

In the next instant, enormous vines shot into the sky, spiraling and intertwining towards the heavens, their roots rapidly spreading and multiplying, enveloping everything and covering all.

Rooted in polluted soil, absorbing the toxic gases in the air that can kill all living things, the flower buds are rapidly sprouting and growing.

The poisonous gas on the island was completely eradicated, but the residual toxins in the soil will ravage the area for a long time, turning it into a barren wasteland.

But Sakura didn't have time to pay attention to those things right now. She poured more chakra into the earth to replenish the life energy needed for plant growth.

Countless scarlet flowers multiplied and spread wildly, blooming in their crimson glory between the sea and the sky.

Amidst the spreading crimson, Punk Hazard, which had become a deadly wasteland of poisonous gas, transformed into a dreamlike sea of ​​flowers—eerie, dangerous, and mysterious, exuding a deadly allure, yet revealing a cold indifference that keeps people at a distance in the smallest details.

In an instant, the world was recreated!

"The red spider lily, it's the red spider lily! Punk Hazard is covered in red spider lilies!"

The image of the world coming back to life was deeply etched in their memories, causing many sailors to involuntarily swallow hard.

A name clearly emerged in everyone's mind.

—King of the Other Shore!

Before long, the sea breeze dispersed the thin toxic fog, and a pirate flag was raised on the top of the Third Research Institute, which had survived the explosion.

Sakura leaned wearily against the railing and gave a thumbs-up to the people on the sea.

"Success!!!"

Inside the Leviathan, which floated in the sky, Kuina and Leviathan wept with joy, dancing and twirling hand in hand in the cabin.

On the revolutionary army's fleet, many soldiers who witnessed this scene could not contain their excitement and nodded repeatedly.

Standing next to Dragon, Enel, arms crossed, also smirked, "Not bad, that guy!"

However, as the saying goes, people's joys and sorrows are not shared.

Unlike the revolutionaries who were simply overjoyed about this, the situation on the navy's side was much more complicated.

The Navy wants to see the island, which has become a dead zone, recover, but they don't want to see it taken over by a pirate as his territory.

"You wanted criminals, don't be too happy yet, we haven't lost yet!"

Bearing a heavy coat of justice, naval hero Monkey D. Garp, his body wreathed in black and red lightning, walked to the bow of the warship.

Just as the atmosphere was about to become tense again, the Den Den Mushi in Dragon's arms suddenly rang.

With a click, the Den Den Mushi was connected.

"Drag, huh? The Navy isn't willing to withdraw their troops yet, is it? Help me get the Den Den Mushi to them!"

Sakura's voice came through the microphone. The team leaders present were all experts in Observation Haki, so Dragon naturally didn't say anything. He raised his hand and sent the Den Den Mushi flying towards Garp in a gust of wind.

"Hey, old man Karp, it's been five years since we parted ways in Flevans. How have you been?"

The Den Den Mushi perfectly mimicked Sakura's current exhaustion, but the girl's undiminished laughter also reached the ears of all the Marines.

"You brat, do you think you can even fight in your current state? Just obediently let this old man send you to Impel Down!"

Garp roared into the microphone, waving his hand to order all the warships to head towards the glaciers surrounding the island, preparing for a landing operation.

"Wrong, it's over already. Did you think I wouldn't have a contingency plan, old man Garp? Look at the sky and the sea!"

As the girl finished speaking, wisps of silver snakes weaved through the thunderclouds in the sky, and a silent downpour began, instantly filling the space between the sea and the sky with fierce winds and raging waves.

Everyone stared in disbelief at the golden, spherical cloud that was gradually absorbing the storm and thunder. A suffocating feeling, as if they were about to be swallowed by the collapsing sky, lingered in the hearts of every sailor.

Thunderclouds are byproducts emitted from the operation of the Ark Maxim's 'Despair' power system.

Compared to ordinary dark clouds, the thunderclouds of Prophecy contain more active high-energy particles and a large amount of frictionally ionized gas. The thunderclouds formed by them far surpass the bootleg version that Sakura made near Windmill Village in terms of range, power, and duration. They are truly super-large weather weapons capable of destroying an island in one blow.

Also in the sea, the mermaid pirate crew led by Fisher Tiger and the soldiers of Ryugu Castle emerged from the water, their eyes gleaming with ferocity, biting or holding the ship's rudder that had just been dismantled.

"Rudder?!"

Garp was then surprised to realize what the fishmen had done, before he could even remind them.

Many out-of-control ships were propelled by the waves and crashed into the glaciers created by Kuzan, producing a screeching sound.

"Just a heads up, the thing in the sky is much more powerful than the one I released on Enies Lobby. If this New World naval fleet is completely wiped out, the balance of power among the three major forces will be disrupted!"

Sakura's voice made Garp so angry he wanted to grind his teeth, but he couldn't find any words to refute it.

Lies don't hurt, truth is the knife.

The fleet in Paradise has been more than half destroyed. Before the Marine Headquarters can recruit soldiers to fill the gaps in the fleet, Garp leads the fleet of the New World to fight Sakura to the death, leaving the Marines unable to control the seas.

Therefore, the situation at sea is not just a matter of power imbalance, and the Seven Warlords of the Sea will definitely jump out and bite back at the World Government at the first opportunity.

Then, these great pirates, who have been tightly sealed off in the New World, will invade Paradise from the second half of the day.

This marks the beginning of the Great Pirate Era, an era in which great pirates wreak havoc and plunder across the seas.

"Give up, Mr. Garp. We lost the moment the government released the poison gas." Kuzan climbed onto the warship from the edge of the ice and let out a helpless sigh.

"Humph!"

Garp angrily slammed down the receiver, threw the Den Den Mushi back forcefully, and turned to walk off the bow of the ship.

With their rudders damaged, these warships could only turn around by manpower and oars, and sheepishly retreated towards the G5 branch.

The Navy's defeat, the destruction and rebirth of Punk Hazard, Sakura raising the flag at the research institute...

The news bird in the sky captured these classic scenes with a video Den Den Mushi (a type of insect used in telepathy), and the message was transmitted back to the World Economic Herald via telepathy.

As the first rays of sunlight fell upon Punk Hazard, while the Revolutionary Army, the mermaids, and Sakura's group were still cleaning up the battlefield, the News Bird had already flown across the entire ocean carrying this world-shaking news.

The uproar suddenly filled the entire world.

The tripartite balance of power among the three maritime superpowers in the New World has persisted for many years. This unchanging sea has frustrated many curious individuals, who have placed their hopes on the major fleets sailing the oceans and speculated about who would be the next to reach the top.

The Red-Haired Pirates' newest member looks promising!

Beehive Island is a pirate paradise; we still need the Wang Zhi Pirates!

"Are these young people too inexperienced? Don't they think the Flying Pirates have any fighting power?"

Wait, what the heck is the Other Shore Pirates?
