Distant Sky
On the sky island, Bai Yu manipulated the Parasite String, while Jewelry Bonney stared in astonishment at the scene below.
The remaining seven Supernovas were being controlled like puppets from such a great distance. The power gap between them and this Demon King was simply overwhelming.
"Are you serious? They're going to be killed by you," Bonney murmured subconsciously.
"Maybe," Bai Yu responded indifferently.
With only a few Supernovas left, Bai Yu directly moved the CP0 agents and the Marine guards away from the battlefield, leaving behind just eight people.
At that moment, time seemed to stand still.
Saint Charlos was in shock, as were the seven Supernovas, unable to accept what was happening.
• Kid: "Damn it! Who the hell is controlling me?!"
• Luffy: "Let go of me! I'm gonna punch you away!"
• Law: "Doflamingo?! So cruel!"
• Drake: "Marines? Farewell!"
• Zoro: "If you weren't controlling me, I'd be cutting you down myself!"
• Apoo: "Ahh! Don't bring me into this!"
• Killer: "…" (Silent rage)
The seven Supernovas were both furious and terrified. The feeling of being toyed with, unable to resist, was unbearable. They were like marionettes, completely at Bai Yu's mercy.
As for the idiot Saint Charlos, he was even more clueless, being moved directly to the center of the chaos.
"This is the worst generation."
As Bai Yu's words fell, Parasite String forced Kid and the others to move.
In an instant—
Fists and swords struck from all directions!
Bang! Slash! Thud!
The synchronized sounds of punches and slashes echoed through the area.
The CP0 agents who had been moved away were just as stunned as the Supernovas themselves.
At that moment, it felt as though the sky had collapsed.
"You… you…"
Before Saint Charlos could utter another word, his body was wracked with unimaginable pain. His consciousness faded.
• Kid, Apoo, and Luffy's punches landed squarely on him.
• Drake, Law, Killer, and Zoro's blades pierced through his body.
Seven people.
A complete surround attack on a Celestial Dragon!
The bloodstained ground told a story that would shake the entire world.
Seven Supernovas had joined forces to kill a Celestial Dragon!
Bonney was just as shocked.
"This scene… the world will go crazy."
Click!
From afar, Bai Yu snapped a photo of the astonishing moment and then released the Parasite String control.
Boom!
Immediately after, CP0, now enraged, launched a counterattack, blasting Kid and the others away with a devastating shockwave.
Ignoring the battle below, Bai Yu sent the photo to Morgans via Den Den Mushi.
Bonney, who had been observing everything, was bewildered.
"Why? What do you gain from making them kill a Celestial Dragon?"
"What are you thinking?" Bai Yu flicked Bonney's forehead and said, "If I alone kill a Celestial Dragon, it's just a special case. But if the worst generation does it together, it symbolizes the collapse of authority."
"When people stop fearing the Celestial Dragons… their end begins."
To conquer the world, in Bai Yu's view, was a process of spiritual transformation—and also something incidental while he collected all the beauties of the plot.
Before finishing his collection, he might as well destroy the World Government along the way.
Bonney stared blankly at him, as if in a trance.
"Are you… a Revolutionary Army member? You… ouch!"
Bai Yu knocked on her forehead again and smirked.
"I'm a careerist—I want supreme power."
Bonney sighed and muttered, "I hope you're better than the rest of the trash out there…"
But when she noticed Bai Yu's eyes narrowing, she quickly corrected herself.
"No! You're great, you're perfect!"
Bai Yu looked down.
Kid, Law, and the others hadn't died yet but were being crushed by the two furious CP0 agents.
"Still too inexperienced…"
At this point, they barely understood Haki, so their only chance of survival was either a Conqueror's Haki awakening, a Devil Fruit awakening, or sheer survival instincts.
Losing interest, Bai Yu shifted his focus to something else.
"That woman… is she pretty?"
Bonney followed his gaze and saw a hooded girl on a Celestial Dragon's ship.
"She's covering her face, so it's hard to tell… but she should be pretty…"
Bonney suddenly froze.
Her mind went blank.
"Oh my god… Is Bai Yu talking about the female Celestial Dragon?!"
Bonney turned her head stiffly, horrified.
"You… You don't mean… Oh no, you're insane!"
"Let me go! Waaaah! If I stay with you, I'm doomed!"
Bonney sat on the sky island cloud, crying.
Bai Yu frowned.
"Are your tears that cheap, Shirahoshi #2?"
"If I wasn't crazy, would I even be a pirate?"
Bai Yu leaned in and whispered in her ear.
"Have you ever heard the word slave?"
"!!!"
Bonney's crying stopped instantly.
She didn't want to cry anymore. She wanted to die.
Bai Yu's madness made her both excited and terrified.
Could she even survive tomorrow while traveling with him?
"Hmm? He's here?"
Bai Yu suddenly sensed a familiar heat-based presence approaching.
He smirked.
"Let's see if the legendary scene will happen. Time to raise his foot and sleep."
Bonney was confused.
"What do you mean by 'raise his foot and sleep'?"
Bai Yu casually explained, "An Admiral was about to kill a rookie pirate. If he simply kicked him, the guy would die. But he kept his foot raised for so long that he almost fell asleep."
Bonney was stunned.
She muttered, "That pirate must be related to him or something."
Bai Yu laughed.
Bonney's first assumption was that the Admiral had a personal connection to the pirate.
Seems like Kizaru really had a reputation…
Meanwhile, on the battlefield…
A golden light suddenly descended from the sky.
A figure materialized.
Kid and the others gasped, their faces dark with despair.
As soon as the figure appeared, he made an exaggerated expression.
"Ooooh~ another Celestial Dragon dead? You Supernovas… so scary~"
Bonney's eyes widened in shock.
"An Admiral?! Why didn't he notice us?"
Bai Yu casually explained, "I blocked his Observation Haki. But… at this distance, he could just look up and see us."
Bonney: "…"
"Then why doesn't anyone just LOOK UP?!"
Admiral Kizaru sighed.
Looking at the Seven Supernovas who just killed a Celestial Dragon, he felt nothing but regret.
"If I had arrived just a bit later, CP0 could've handled it."
His gaze shifted to Luffy's straw hat, and his expression darkened.
"Garp's grandson. Dragon's son. Roger's legacy. If I take action now… will I still have a job tomorrow?"
Kizaru hesitated.
Then, looking around, he suddenly realized something.
"Hmm~ where's the other Celestial Dragon?"
CP0 immediately turned to look at the ship.
She was gone.
Their faces paled.
They had forgotten about Saint Shalria.
They were doomed.
