Chapter 159 Unprecedented Uzumaki
The next morning, the screams of the news bird pierced the sky!
Special issues of the World Economic News were scattered across the ocean like snowflakes, with three explosive news headlines prominently printed on the front page:
"Four Emperors Red Hair Pirates destroyed! Bloody battle at G5 base, only red-haired Shanks is missing!"
Dressrosa's ten-year conspiracy exposed! Shichibukai Doflamingo was executed, and Fujitora Admiral made a great contribution!
"Sabo, the Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army, and the Straw Hat Pirates attacked the Admiral of Headquarters, but were all killed by Xuanlin Admiral!"
The whole world was shocked!
Reactions from around the world exploded instantly——
Alabasta, the royal palace council hall.
The newspaper in Cobra's hand was crumpled and ink stained his vigorous fingers.
The blazing sunlight outside the window filtered through the stained glass, casting a maze of light and shadow on his face, but it could not dispel the solemnity in his eyes.
"The Red Hair Pirates were destroyed, Doflamingo was killed, and the top brass of the Revolutionary Army were defeated..."
His voice was low and hoarse, like a dry riverbed in the desert.
"This sea is about to completely change."
Vivi stood beside him, her slender fingers unconsciously stroking the peacock chain around her waist.
Her gaze lingered on Luffy's wanted poster photo in the newspaper—that face that always wore a bright smile, now covered with a scarlet "Dead" stamp.
"Father..."
Her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.
Cobra didn't answer immediately.
He turned and looked out the window. In this land covered with yellow sand, people were still busy with their lives.
"Sometimes, the price of order..."
He slowly closed his eyes, as if resisting some invisible pressure.
"More suffocating than war itself."
At the same time, the Alabasta underground casino "Rain Banquet"
"Snap!"
Crocodile's golden hook pinned the latest issue of the newspaper to the wall of the casino's VIP room.
The Shichibukai-sama was smoking a cigar as he stared at the mosaiced photo of Luffy on the front page, his eyes twitching unconsciously.
"Boss, the 1982 red wine you requested..."
Mr.3 pushed the door open with a tray in his hand, and was suddenly startled by the low pressure in the room.
"Put it there."
Crocodile didn't even turn around. Golden Hook pointed at the newspaper and said, "Look at this."
Mr. 3 took a closer look and his legs went weak. "Isn't this the Straw Hat Kid? How come he's been beaten so badly that even the mosaics are gone..."
"Is that the point?!"
Crocodile tore the newspaper into pieces with a hook. "The key is that madman Rogge!"
"Boss? Boss?"
Mr. 1 waved his hand in front of the dazed boss. "Do you want to continue exploring the Wang family tomb as planned?"
"f**k off!"
Crocodile suddenly jumped up, and the golden hook slammed onto the gambling table with a clang.
He paced back and forth impatiently, his crocodile-skin boots leaving charred, sandy marks on the carpet. "From today on, Baroque Workshop is transforming!"
"Transform?" Mr. 3 asked stutteringly.
"right!"
Crocodile gnashed his teeth and declared, "From now on, we'll only do legitimate business! Open a casino! Develop tourism! Sell souvenirs!"
Mr. 1 pointed out expressionlessly, "But, Boss, our casino was just reported for cheating last month..."
"Then change it to a children's playground!"
Crocodile waved his hand furiously, and the casino ceiling instantly disintegrated into sand, revealing a starry sky. "Didn't you see that even Doflamingo is dead?! That guy is even more suicidal than me!"
Beasts Pirates·Ghost Island
Kaido's dragon claws crushed the newspaper into powder, and the wine gourd exploded on the granite floor. The strong aroma of wine mixed with Conqueror's Haki spread throughout the banquet hall.
Jin subconsciously spread his black wings to protect the six flying companions behind him, but he saw his own governor suddenly laughing wildly towards the sky.
"Ugh... That preachy red-haired brat actually fell into Marine's hands?!"
Kaido's laughter shook the dome of Onigashima to the point of dust falling off, but a dangerous cold light flashed deep in the dragon's eyes.
The laughter stopped abruptly, and the wine dripped down his dragon beard, corroding hissing holes in the stone slabs.
The entire banquet hall suddenly became eerily quiet, and even the most reckless barbarian held his breath.
"ember."
Kaido's voice suddenly became eerily calm. "Contact the Morgans. I need to know the Marines' next troop deployment."
After his subordinates hurriedly left, the strongest creature in the sea, land and air walked alone to the edge of the cliff and looked at the turbulent New World.
For some reason, the image of the crazy woman from Cake Island popped up in his mind, and he burst into thunderous laughter: "Interesting! So interesting!!"
"Pass the order down—all troops, prepare for battle!"
"The war of a new era... is about to begin!!"
Wan Guo Cake Island
"MAMA-MAMA!! The red-haired guy was wiped out?!!" The entire cake castle was shaking with her roar!
Katakuri's scarf fluttered without a breeze, his observation Haki seeming to glimpse a terrifying future: "Mom... I'm afraid Marine's actions this time will trigger a chain reaction."
"Mom! All Joker channels in the underground world have been disconnected!"
Perospero's candy cane snapped, spilling the sweet syrup onto the ground. "Weapons trade, artificial Devil Fruit, slave markets... all over!"
Big Mom's pink curly hair suddenly turned into a poisonous purple-black, and Zeus and Prometheus shrank into small balls in fear.
Just when her children thought she was about to have a food craving, she became unusually quiet, her plump fingers tapping lightly on the armrests of the throne.
"Mmmmmm!"
Big Mom suddenly grabbed the Den Den Mushi, a shrewd glint in her eyes. "Connect me to Kaido's private line!"
When the Den Den Mushi transformed into a dragon head, the two Four Emperors fell into a strange silence across the Red Line.
Finally, Kaido spoke first, his voice carrying a rare degree of caution:
"Linlin...New World is about to change."
"Cut the crap, Kaido."
Big Mom crushed the throne armrests and said, "I changed my mind!"
Suddenly, huge waves a hundred meters high rose on the sea surface, and the dragon eyes projected by the Den Den Mushi and the eyes of Big Mom in reality lit up scarlet light at the same time.
The two emperors who had ruled the sea for decades now saw the same determination in each other's eyes.
Either join forces to conquer the new era, or be crushed by the new era!
"It's time... to redefine the New World's territory!"
Revolutionary Army Headquarters Baldigo
The coffee cup in Long's hand suddenly exploded, and the scalding liquid was evaporated by the invisible wind pressure before it touched his skin.
The air in the entire underground base suddenly became sticky, and the ventilation ducts groaned as if they were overwhelmed.
"Sabo...Luffy..."
His voice was soft, but it caused all the wind-breathing devices monitoring the entire base to emit sparks.
The newspaper in Koala's hand suddenly caught fire, and the photo of Sabo with a warm smile was distorted in the flames.
"impossible!"
Koala slapped the burning newspaper with her bare hands, tears vaporizing in the heat. "Sabo-kun clearly said... I'm just going to provide support..."
Haku's fish-man karate blasted the entire concrete wall into dust: "That Rogge..."
"Shut up!"
Long suddenly roared, and the base's lighting system exploded.
Under the flickering emergency lights, the face of the revolutionary army leader was as ferocious as a demon, and his face was covered with the Haki patterns of the slippers inherited from Garp.
Betty threw away the flag in her hand and said, "Chief! Starting a war now will disrupt our twenty years of preparation..."
"Twenty years?"
The dragon's voice suddenly became eerily calm. "When my father died at Rogge's hands, you said the time was not right. Now my son..."
He suddenly raised his hand, and the holographic map in the conference room instantly switched to a map of World Government's troop distribution.
The red dots of light representing the elite Marines were gathering frantically at the G5 base, and the most dazzling scarlet dot among them was marked with the word "Xuanlin".
"Notify all army commanders."
The dragon's cloak fluttered without a gust of wind. Suddenly, a Category 12 hurricane blew up outside the base. "From today on, the Revolutionary Army's primary goal has changed—"
"Kill Rogge at all costs!"
When the dragon turned into a hurricane and rushed out of the base, the cadres who stayed behind were horrified to find that the ground where the leader had just stood showed traces of being torn by the dragon's claws.
Naval Headquarters·新Marineford
"Hahaha! Good!"
Sakazuki's wild laughter nearly shattered the bulletproof glass of the office, and his molten fist burned the battle report to ashes.
On the projection screen, the alarm signals that suddenly lit up at various revolutionary army strongholds made the red light in his eyes even brighter.
"That brat finally drove Dorag crazy!"
Sakazuki ripped open his tie, revealing a hideous scar. "Pass my order! All Marine branches are to enter Level 1 combat readiness!"
Kizaru slowly trimmed his nails. "Yeah That's scary The Revolutionary Army plus the Four Emperors who might go berserk~"
He suddenly stopped, the reflection from his sunglasses obscuring his eyes. "But Brother Rogge did a great job this time~"
Crane spoke solemnly, "Although Shanks managed to escape, the Red Hair Pirates are completely destroyed. Only Beast and Big Mom remain of the Four Emperors of the New World!"
Vice Admiral Tsuru gently set down his teacup. The crisp sound of the cup's bottom hitting the tray brought a sudden silence to the bustling office. "But Sakazuki, the cornered beast..."
"A trapped beast?"
Sakazuki punched the strategic map, and lava burned through the Revolutionary Army headquarters. "It's time to show the world what absolute justice is!"
He turned and looked out the window. On the newly built Marine fortress, countless of the latest Buster Call-class battleships were loading ammunition.
Farther away, three new "Seraphim" slowly raised their heads, the burning word "Justice" reflected in their pupils.
"Notify the Science Corps that Project PX-0 has been activated ahead of schedule."
The marshal's cloak rustled behind him. "Since we're going to fight..."
"Let this war finally put an end to the Great Pirates Era!"
Holy Land · Mariejois · In front of the Void Throne
The Five Elders knelt in the shadows and reported in low voices.
"Xuanlin's actions have ignited a full-scale war, and the entire ocean has fallen into unprecedented turmoil."
"The Red Hair Pirates were destroyed, the Revolutionary Army was severely damaged, and Doflamingo was completely eliminated. This era has truly entered a new order."
On the void throne, a slender and mysterious figure slowly stood up, his eyes deep and his voice so calm that it was chilling.
"Rogge's 'absolute justice' is indeed thorough enough."
"Then let the world be thrown into complete turmoil!"
"Who will ultimately write the script for the changing times remains to be seen..."
The three pieces of news completely ignited the world like explosives, pushing the fate of everyone into the unprecedented Uzumaki.
The name Xuanlin became the center of an unprecedented storm.
