"What reason do I have to refuse..."
Shanks, having recovered, couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh. The invincible being before him truly stopped at nothing.
He didn't choose coercion, but rather enticement!
He even brought Hawkeye into the enticement, and the reason for the enticement... he couldn't refuse!
To freely soar through endless worlds, to eternally be accompanied by Hawkeye, and even to revive the great King who was like a father in his heart!
"I, Shanks, offer my loyalty to you, Lord Shaya!"
Under Shaya's anticipation, Shanks finally surrendered!
The moment he knelt, it signified the beginning of Shaya's legend!
"I, Beckman..."
"I, Yasopp..."
All members of the Red Hair Pirates, one after another, spoke with immense respect, even a hint of worship.
To be honest, following such a powerful individual, they wouldn't lose out!
Their Captain had once been a subordinate, and now they were even more so. Thinking of this, their mental pressure lessened quite a bit.
"How terrifying..."
Meanwhile, Kizaru watched with a pounding heart. Awesome, my boss!
Two Shichibukai, a Four Emperors pirate crew... plus him, an Admiral whose salary was in place and who could take down a Four Emperors, what else could stop them!
Not to mention, this was merely Shaya's initial force.
Kizaru could hardly imagine if, after some time, all Four Emperors and Admirals would gather, and then march towards that mountain that had stood for over eight hundred years!
"Your hands..."
Looking at Crocodile and Shanks's hands, Shaya couldn't help but say, "One hand is never as convenient as two..."
"In my name, all things revive!"
Buzz buzz buzz!
A vast power swept through, and Shanks and Crocodile's bodies trembled, feeling a warmth all over.
The others also widened their eyes, watching as Crocodile's golden hook suddenly broke, and then the severed left arms of both men began to glow... The dazzling light made them squint, but after three seconds, the light dissipated!
"Hiss..."
Shanks and Crocodile stood frozen, and everyone stared blankly at the scene.
"Thank you, Lord Shaya!"
Their missing hands were completely restored, as if they had never disappeared.
Shanks even felt that his newly recovered left hand had the same strength as his right, which was what surprised him most.
Everyone couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, it was truly reassuring to have Shaya as their boss.
"Your strength has recovered!"
"Next, they will make you... understand me!"
Shaya waved his hand, and everyone's strength recovered!
Then, dozens of bright moon badges floated before everyone, incredibly bright, like supreme marks that drew attention.
Everyone was puzzled and reached out to take them. But upon touching them, countless images flowed into their minds, leaving them all in shock!
The person before them actually... "Greetings, Your Excellency!"
Everyone bowed again, many even feeling a bit ashamed!
To have made such a great being waste so much time! Thankfully, His Excellency was lenient, otherwise... they would regret it immensely!
"Anas, what are you doing here?"
Looking at Dog-headed man, Shaya saw the newspaper and several wanted posters in his hand!
Anas respectfully said, "Your Excellency, this is a newspaper I bought today when I went to Blue Star for supplies. It has spread all over the world, and it has been circulating for three or four days!"
"If you are going to look, please be mindful of your emotions to avoid harming yourself!"
He couldn't imagine how furious the Adult would be if he knew he was defined as a pirate, and even described as a heinous demon.
Perhaps, in an instant, the world would be turned upside down!
"Is that so? Let me see…"
Shaya raised his hand, and the newspaper and wanted poster were in his grasp.
His bounty is over 3 billion?
Looking at the bounty, Shaya showed no emotional fluctuations.
The lowest of the Four Emperors have bounties of over 4 billion, so should he be happy about a bounty of over 3 billion?
"Sengoku is truly cunning…"
Seeing the title of 'World's Strongest,' Shaya immediately understood Sengoku's intentions.
Isn't it just to make people come and trouble him? Shaya couldn't be more eager.
It's best if all the strong come; he can bring them to the Moon one by one and manipulate them at will.
"…"
When Shaya saw the section about his personal panel, his brows furrowed slightly.
To describe Shaya as bloodthirsty was an understatement; the description of him eating people and drinking blood was a moderate one. One could imagine how despicable the newspaper above had portrayed Shaya!
"Anas, what do you think we should do?"
He let the newspaper fall in front of him. Red Hair and the others subconsciously picked it up to read, while Shaya's voice was neither warm nor cold.
"Adult! They have insulted you so, and as your loyal servant, I truly cannot tolerate it!"
Anas was filled with indignation, and sneered, "To directly kill our way to Mary Geoise would be letting them off too easily."
"It would be best to destroy their rule little by little, making them suffer more each day until they despair, until they are annihilated!"
"I suggest we first capture a few trash Celestial Dragons to sacrifice. Let the Slaves abuse them, let the common people curse them, and even let them kill each other, and…"
"Broadcast it worldwide, trample on their dignity, tear apart their pride, and shatter their power!"
Kizaru couldn't help but shiver. This Dog-headed man was truly insidious.
To choose to target the Celestial Dragons… I like it!
"Adult Shaya, leave the Celestial Dragons to me. I'll kill them all!"
Crocodile also had a murderous look. He had been a pirate his whole life, yet he was still inferior to those trash Celestial Dragons. He couldn't stand it any longer.
"Adult Shaya, I am willing to be the vanguard!"
Red Hair finished reading the newspaper, glanced at the wanted poster, and immediately asked for the order!
He was impatient to end this trashy ruling world as soon as possible, in order to revive the person in his heart.
"Granted!"
Shaya did not refuse. In this world, what could be more prestigious than having the Four Emperors as bodyguards?
He didn't ask about Crocodile's intentions, because Crocodile simply wanted to do a mission, and now he had one.
After speaking, Shaya looked at Kizaru and said, "As for you, go back!"
"Huh? Go back where?!"
"To the Marine. Everything as before. Report truthfully!"
Kizaru: "…"
What a trap! He just got a new boss, and now he has to go back and be an undercover agent?!
He finally got his salary doubled, does he have to go back again? What a bitter fate I have!
"Don't worry, your salary will still be paid!"
"Thank you, Adult!"
