A few people emerged from the mirror and approached Desert Black, encased in ice.
Crack! - The ice crunched underfoot.
Ezekiel slowly raised his head to inspect the massive frozen prison. Fujitora did the same, saying nothing, as did Hancock and the others who came out of curiosity.
Now everyone could see what had happened to Desert Black, which had been attacked by the World Government. It was no surprise that Ezekiel was so furious and wanted to fight against the World Government and the Heavenly Dragons who gave such an order.
Ezekiel moved forward. The frozen guards stood at their posts, illuminated by the light, casting shadows on the barren ground like eternal sculptures.
These people were not dead; it seemed Aokiji did not want to kill them.
As they ventured deeper into the prison, they saw Chaka's figure, which came into view for everyone. His tall body was frost-bitten and covered with frozen blood. He stood motionless, his hands appearing as if they were trying to grasp something. Perhaps, at the last moment, he attempted to stop the attacker.
Hancock was speechless, stunned by this sight. She possessed the world's greatest charm and beauty and never dealt with enemies in such a manner.
Fujitora stepped forward and embraced Chaka, then quickly handed him to a doctor from Alabasta who came with them.
Your Majesty, more than half of the Desert Black pirates escaped, - one of the soldiers checked and reported angrily.
Ezekiel nodded, already knowing this, as he had the opportunity to monitor mobile phones.
These pirates are now within Alabasta's territory, posing a huge hidden threat to the country, especially because of Enel. Fortunately, the Thunder Fruit had been downloaded, otherwise, the recent trip to Sky Island would have been in vain.
"Zephyr, find out the whereabouts of all the fugitives," Ezekiel said slowly.
The Celestial Dragons are truly not as simple as they seemed. The Five Elders are the most influential among the Celestial Dragons. This is clearly stated in the original book, and above all the Celestial Dragons is Im.
Under the orders of ordinary Celestial Dragons, Aokiji would hardly dare to invade Alabasta. Ezekiel does not believe it.
But Aokiji was willing to come and even attacked Alabasta's prison.
From the previous call, Ezekiel guessed that the Five Elders did not give the order directly; they simply tacitly agreed, and this silent consent was enough to set many events in motion.
The Celestial Dragons always projected an image of arrogant, foolish fat cats, extremely cruel, and dismissive of people's individuality.
But one must consider that the World Government has existed for 800 years.
Initially, there were 19 kings and their families at Mary Geoise. 800 years have passed, and how many Celestial Dragons are there now? There are hundreds, which is not surprising.
The Five Elders are the most influential Celestial Dragons, but there must be other Celestial Dragons who are only slightly less powerful, who are not fools, and who are inevitably quite influential.
After all, among the Celestial Dragons are such diverse individuals as Doflamingo's parents, the Five Elders, and Imu.
Isn't it logical that the World Government, an institution that rules the world, besides having the highest level, should also have middle or above-average level Celestial Dragons?
After dealing with Desert Black, Ezekiel returned to the palace with everyone.
...…..
Bang! A huge firework exploded in the night sky, emitting countless lights and illuminating the faces of everyone in the large city.
People were rejoicing and marching through the streets.
Not only in the city, but a grand banquet was also held in the palace of Alubarna in the capital of Alabasta.
The ancient palace, four thousand years old, is only slightly younger than the legendary five-thousand-year-old omniscient tree of Ohara. Perhaps this isn't the first time such a grand banquet has been held, but it is certainly the only one in the past 800 years.
After all, ever since Alabasta decided to reject the Heavenly Dragons 800 years ago, it has been a traitor to the World Government, and the suppression of the country has never ceased. Where could poor Alabasta find the funds and energy to host banquets? But here, 800 years later, a remarkable talent has emerged, one who managed to challenge the World Government with his own strength.
It is thanks to this King that the people of Alabasta can have such a relaxed and joyful mood.
In fact, not only Alabasta, but the entire world is awake tonight.
Alabasta is a super Kingdom, the most powerful country in the world, with the strongest King in the world who has once again defeated the World Government.
None of this matters. The most important thing is that the World Government agreed to Alabasta's outrageous request.
To hand over the Celestial Dragons who ordered the Marines to conduct a covert attack on Alabasta!
The Celestial Dragons!
The World Nobles!
Those who rule the world!
For eight hundred years, no person or country has ever dared to cause significant harm to the Celestial Dragons, let alone hand them over to Alabasta for arbitrary disposal. Although there is a primary condition that the Celestial Dragons cannot be killed, still, it is enough to shock the entire world.
"The World Government is compromised!"
"This is truly unbelievable" "Our world is under threat?!"
"What is happening between the World Government and Alabasta?"
Countless people are discussing the events on the Forum, but they don't truly understand what is happening.
Ezekiel has unsettled the peace in the world.
Countless Sea Kings obeyed his call and were ready to go forth. If the World Government doesn't fulfill its promise, he will certainly destroy Impel Down, Enies Lobby, and the Headquarters of the Marines . In that case, nothing can stop it. The outcome of the war between them must be decided.
It is precisely because he made such a move that the Five Elders had to grit their teeth and agree.
This fully demonstrates that with enough strength, anyone can be swayed into compromise.
