Chapter 411 Dragon Slayer and Evil Dragon
Under Robin's lead, Nicholas quickly arrived at the residence arranged by Doctor Clover.
It was clear that this residence was prepared by Doctor Clover in a hurry, as all kinds of daily necessities were fully prepared.
In the Kitchen, there were also many fresh Ingredients.
Knowing that Nicholas was not good at cooking stir-fries, Robin directly entered the Kitchen and simply stir-fried a few Home-style Dishes.
After all, children who grow up in foster care are often heart-wrenchingly sensible. (The time spent joining the Straw Hat should be Robin's most relaxed time.)
In less than half an hour, three dishes and a Soup were placed on the table.
After eating, the two also started chatting. Obviously, Olvia's appearance had released Robin's long-suppressed Inner Thoughts, and she even started talking to Nicholas about her Uncle's family.
"Although Uncle is a nice person, he is very afraid of Aunt Rogi at home. I even suspect that if Doctor Clover hadn't given her the Child Support Mama sent every month, she would have kicked me out long ago..."
Obviously, in Robin's words, the Aunt Rogi called Rogi was quite mean. If it were normal times, Robin wouldn't dare to speak ill of her, after all, Uncle's house was her only place to stay in Ohara.
But now it was different, because her Mother was back.
Robin, who was still young, was very excited. She didn't know about the Things of adults. She only knew that from today onwards, she, like the children in the town, also had a Mother, and someone would buy her Cake to celebrate her Birthday. She no longer had to envy Uncle's children for having New Clothes to wear, while she had none.
In the evening, Olvia came to take Robin away.
"Mr. Nicholas, see you tomorrow."
Robin smiled and said goodbye to Nicholas.
When leaving, Robin tightly grasped Olvia's Hand, as if worried that she would disappear again.
At night, a Figure appeared in front of Nicholas's residence.
After hesitating again and again, he still reached out and gently knocked on the door.
"Come in, Doctor Clover."
Hearing Nicholas's Sound, Doctor Clover pushed the door open and entered.
"I thought you would come in two days? Drink something?"
Nicholas looked at Doctor Clover and asked.
"Plain water will do."
Sitting on the Sofa, Doctor Clover no longer had his usual Composure, after all, he knew clearly what kind of Terror the World Government's Buster Call would bring to this Land of Ohara.
"Mr. Nicholas, are you really sure that the World Government will launch a Buster Call against us? Is there no room for maneuver at all?"
"The Intelligence about the Buster Call against Ohara was given to me by the Revolutionary Army. In addition, Olvia should have also told you the Reason why Salon escaped from the Marine, right?
As for room for maneuver, do you think that according to the Record of the Poneglyph, the World Government will allow Things that shake their Rule to continue to exist in the World?"
Nicholas was very sure that the World Government would launch a Buster Call against Ohara.
At the same time, Nicholas also looked towards the giant Tree of Omniscience.
He knew very well in his Inner Thoughts that in the Library under this ancient Tree, there was a Poneglyph stored, and this Poneglyph to a certain Degree recorded quite a lot of information. At least the Scholars of Ohara deduced from this Poneglyph that there was a giant Kingdom that existed before the World Government.
"But History is the Wealth of all Human, and the Hope to understand the History of the past is a Right that no one has the Right to stop."
Doctor Clover was obviously a little angry. He didn't understand why the World Government wanted to kill them all just because they wanted to republish the sealed History to the public.
"According to the World Government's statement, as long as you read the Poneglyph, then it is possible to revive the Ancient Weapon and bring Threat to the World. Even if you have no malice, it is hard to guarantee that no Ambitionist will use this point to destroy the Stability of the World, right?"
Nicholas said, and Doctor Clover nodded in confusion. This was indeed the Warning from the World Government to some Scholars. Some Scholars did give up Research on the Poneglyph under this kind of rhetoric, but some Scholars became more interested, and the Scholars of Ohara were the latter.
"But no matter what the past History is like, it is made by People, and it should be accepted as it is. As long as you accept it bravely, you can cope with Anything that happens!
The Reason why the World Government is so Apprehension about the interpretation of the Poneglyph is probably because the content of the Poneglyph is very detrimental to their Rule."
If the previous ones were just guesses, then after communicating with Nicholas, Doctor Clover could be sure that once the History that the World Government was trying to hide was announced, it would definitely cause a Destructive Blow to their Rule.
"You are really a smart Person, but unfortunately your Fist is not big enough. In fact, the World Government knows very well about the Power of the Ancient Weapon, and to a certain extent, the Existence of the Ancient Weapon is not so much related to the Poneglyph. The Poneglyph at best only guides People to find the Existence of the Ancient Weapon.
At least I have roughly grasped Poseidon and Dark King of the Ancient Weapon in my Hand, as for Uranus, if I guess correctly, it should be in Roger's Hand."
"Huh!!?"
Listening to Nicholas casually saying such shocking Words, even Doctor Clover couldn't help but lose his composure.
After all, they were just Researching the Poneglyph, and they didn't even know what the Ancient Weapon was specifically, and the World Government was about to dispatch a Buster Call to kill them. As a result, people have directly collected almost all the Ancient Weapon, and the World Government didn't even Fart.
Thinking of this, Doctor Clover felt very depressed.
"In fact, the Ancient Weapon is not as Terror as recorded. The Existence of the Ancient Weapon can indeed change the World to a certain Degree, but wanting to rely on the Ancient Weapon to subvert the Rule of the World Government and the Celestial Dragons is just a daydream.
I even suspect that the statement that mastering the Ancient Weapon can control the World is a bait released by the World Government."
Thinking of a certain unknown Logia Type who wholeheartedly wanted to find the Ancient Weapon, and even acted as a 'Hero' for more than ten years, Nicholas couldn't help but laugh.
He dared to guarantee that if someone really mastered any one of the three Kings, and then went to challenge the Rule of the World Government with great interest, then the World Government would definitely tell him that your grandfather can Rule the World for eight hundred years for a Reason.
Then smilingly accept the Ancient Weapon.
After all, the Impression that the 'Toilet King' gave Nicholas was too deep, and he even suspected that that Weapon's Ability was even more Outrageous than the Dark-Dark Fruit. Ordinary Ability User have no Resistance in front of her at all.
"But shouldn't the Existence of the Poneglyph be for the giant Kingdom, to tell later generations about those powerful Enemy who once destroyed them, and to leave their Thought and True History to the People of the Future!"
"Then do you think there is any difference between the high-level officials of that giant Kingdom and the Celestial Dragons?"
Nicholas asked with a smile.
Hearing Nicholas's Words, Doctor Clover was suddenly stunned.
"Doctor Clover, I appreciate a Words very much, the only Lesson Human learn from History is that Human cannot learn any Lesson from History.
Dragon Slayer will eventually become Evil Dragon, how do you know that the World Government and the ancestors of the Celestial Dragons were not to liberate the Grand Line and destroyed that giant Kingdom?"
Nicholas continued to say.
"Hahahaha~"
Looking at Doctor Clover who fell into Thought, Nicholas couldn't help but laugh.
(End of this Chapter)
Chapter 412 Stability Over Everything
At the same time, inside the World Government in Holy Land Mary Geoise.
"Are these reports true?"
A stern voice echoed in the empty chamber of power.
"It is now confirmed. Our investigation has ascertained the existence of a Poneglyph within Ohara in the West Blue! Furthermore, combined with the previous Nico Olvia incident, everything points to those Ohara scholars conducting research that harms the World Government's profit."
The Den Den Mushi placed on the table spoke solemnly.
"Originally, we were still hesitant about whether the Buster Call on Ohara was excessive, but now it seems we were too lenient."
"Hehehe, it can only be said that those scholars in Ohara have had peaceful days for far too long, so long that they even dared to touch such a red line."
Two of the Five Elders said in a deep voice.
The CP Department personnel on the other end of the Den Den Mushi could only listen quietly, without making any comment. After all, when it came to such secret matters of the World Government, even a slight slip of the tongue could lead to their erasure.
"By the way, who is the CP9 operative responsible for accompanying the Navy in this Buster Call operation?"
Suddenly, the Bald Gorosei with short golden hair spoke.
"It is Officer Spandam. The CP9 team he leads is currently heading to the West Blue to rendezvous with the Buster Call dispatched by Marine Headquarters. He was also the one who uncovered those Ohara scholars hiding their identities previously."
The person on the other end of the Den Den Mushi honestly reported.
"Spandam, is it? Tell him to leave no scholar alive in Ohara! As for the Ordinary People, as long as investigations clear them of any involvement, arrange for them to leave on Evacuation Ship."
The old man said in a deep voice.
"Understood!"
Soon, the Den Den Mushi hung up.
After a moment of silence among the Five Elders, the Bald Gorosei among them spoke, "Letting the other people of Ohara leave on Evacuation Ship, won't that cause trouble? What if those scholars manage to sneak in?"
"They won't do anything so irrational. As long as the World Government and the Navy announce that this Buster Call is mainly targeting the scholars of Ohara, then those Ordinary People will absolutely not allow those scholars to board the Ship. They might even actively cooperate, ferreting out those scholars hiding among the crowd.
After all, human nature is the most vulnerable to testing. Seeking benefit and avoiding harm is everyone's instinct.
Besides, that Spandam fellow is quite capable in his work."
"Actually, I still admire those scholars in Ohara. After all, they restored much of the culture that should have disappeared in the long river of History, leaving behind a precious Wealth for the inheritance of Human History.
But now, the Things they are researching are too dangerous for the World. What they are doing is even worse than Roger and Nicholas! The stability of the Sea is more important than Everything!"
Obviously, in the eyes of the Five Elders, Nicholas and Roger, and even other Great Pirate, were all eyeing the Poneglyph, but they all had their own purposes. Moreover, these people also understood that even if they knew the Historical Truth, it would be futile if they could not overthrow the World Government.
Even Roger, who had become the Pirate King and gone to the Final Island, understood this. That's why he initiated the Great Pirate Era, hoping that in the Great Pirate Era, that person would reappear and bring Dawn to the Sea.
But these scholars in Ohara do not understand what their Research will bring once it is made public.
Originally, it was just a Revelry for Pirates, but once the Existence of Ancient Weapon is revealed, even just some Clue will make the Ambitionist in the World move upon hearing the Wind.
It must be known that these Ambitionist are either leaders of a Force or Kings of some Country. The Power they can mobilize and Influence is not comparable to Pirates.
The Member Nations under the World Government are still manageable, as they are under the World Government's surveillance to some Degree, but there are also those countries that have not joined the World Government.
Once these countries join the ranks of searching for Ancient Weapon, it will be a terrifying Disturbance sweeping the entire World, and no one can escape this vortex.
On the other hand, in Marineford.
Corazon, who had returned to Marineford and been promoted to Lieutenant Commander, was now standing in front of Sengoku, looking at Sengoku without backing down.
Looking at his adopted son in front of him, Sengoku couldn't help but feel a headache.
"Corazon, you understand, this Thing is not something we can change."
Sengoku looked at Corazon and said with a wry smile.
"The Justice we Navy have always adhered to, I can accept even using some dirty Means to deal with Pirates, but I cannot accept an absurd Order to completely erase an Island from the map just because they might have researched Poneglyph!
You must know that Buster Call is not just erasing an Island, but also the People on it! Are they only seeing that inconspicuous Small Island on the map, and not seeing the People on it at all!!!"
When he spoke of People, Corazon almost roared it out.
"Corazon, some Things are not that Simple."
In fact, regarding the Buster Call against Ohara, Sengoku had also tried to negotiate with the Five Elders, but the only thing he managed to secure was that the Ordinary People of Ohara, after being screened, could leave on Evacuation Ship, thus avoiding being affected by the Buster Call.
As for Ohara and all the scholars on it, they all had to die!
"Then what is the Complexity of the Thing!? I only know that because of an Order from the World Government, thousands or even tens of thousands of innocent People may lose their Homeland, and an Archaeological Holy Land that enjoys a high reputation in the World will be turned into Ruins!
The Navy's Justice you once taught me, have you already forgotten it!? We are to protect Ordinary People, to maintain the Stability of the Sea, not to maintain the damn World Government!"
Corazon said emotionally.
"Corazon, ah, some Things are beyond our control. But it's also Time to tell you some Things. Remember, this is Top Secret, absolutely must not be leaked, understand!!!"
After speaking, Sengoku's face was already filled with solemnity and seriousness.
…
After listening to Sengoku's Words, Corazon couldn't help but be stunned. After a moment, he took a long breath, his expression somewhat Complex.
At least he could be sure that Sengoku had not betrayed the Justice in his Inner Thoughts, but how could that Thing be possible!
After seeing Corazon off, Sengoku sat in his chair. He turned his head to look out the window, at the huge Navy Base, at the Seagull Flag fluttering in the Wind in the Square, and sighed a long breath.
"Ohara."
For a long while, he murmured these three Words again.
The Emotion in his Tone was very Complex.
West Blue, Ohara.
After persuasion from Doctor Clover and a group of scholars, the first batch of Ordinary People from Ohara will be sent off today.
Robin's Uncle's family was arranged in the first batch because of Olvia's relationship. After all, the first batch of people to leave is destined to be the safest. The later the Time is delayed, the more difficult it will be to leave Ohara.
Looking at the Ohara Residents dragging their families and belongings onto the Ship, Doctor Clover had a Smile on his Face, but his Mood was very heavy.
According to the News he got from a Friend, two Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral with Titles, leading three assisting Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral, had already set off towards Ohara, accompanied by special officials from the World Government, as well as a large number of Warship and Soldier.
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 413 Qualification for Dialogue
Time flew by in the blink of an eye. In the blink of an eye, another day had passed.
At the same time, two more Evacuation Ships intermittently departed from Ohara.
Compared to the Ordinary People of Ohara who were thrown into utter chaos by the Navy Buster Call, the Scholars of Ohara located within the Tree of Omniscience were incredibly calm.
They chose to spend their last peaceful moments in Ohara. Nicholas, sitting in the canopy of the Tree of Omniscience and reading Books, was also infected by the calmness of these Scholars.
Although many People say they are not afraid of Death, when Death actually arrives, they are scared to tears.
But these Scholars completely disregarded Life and Death, even neglecting food and sleep to Research the Poneglyph located at the very bottom of the Tree of Omniscience, wanting to completely decipher this Poneglyph at the last moment of their Life.
As noon approached, in the quiet Tree of Omniscience, the Den Den Mushi in Nicholas's arms suddenly vibrated.
"Pururu pururu pururu!"
The Sound of the Den Den Mushi broke the silence in the Library, causing all Lines of Sight in the Library to converge.
Nicholas took out the Den Den Mushi from his arms. He did not avoid anyone present and directly picked up the Den Den Mushi to answer.
"Moshi moshi!"
"Mr. Nicholas, the Evacuation Ship that escaped from Ohara has been ordered to be sunk by CP9 Officer Spandam! Do not let Ohara send out Evacuation Ships anymore! Do not let Ohara send out Evacuation Ships anymore!"
A somewhat panicked Sound came from the Den Den Mushi. Obviously, Spandam's Order to sink the Evacuation Ship was somewhat unacceptable to the Person on the other end of the Den Den Mushi.
"Okay, I understand."
Nicholas said calmly.
After confirming that Nicholas had received the News, the Person on the other side seemed to be afraid of exposing Oneself and directly hung up the Den Den Mushi.
Looking at the Den Den Mushi that closed its Eyes again and returned to Calm.
The Ohara Library was still Calm, but the Sound just now had already spread. The Scholars' Lines of Sight all focused over. Doctor Clover stared at Nicholas, wanting to say something, but ultimately did not say it.
Although they had a certain psychological preparation for the World Government's brutality, they really did not expect the other side to be so brutal and inhumane. They needed to know that those People were Ordinary Commoner of Ohara, not Scholars Researching Poneglyph.
"Well, you've all heard it. The World Government doesn't intend to give Ohara any way out. Even the Navy Buster Call Fleet should have already completed the encirclement of the Surrounding Sea Area of Ohara."
"If I'm not mistaken, the People from the World Government should have already secretly landed on this Island."
Nicholas said slowly.
"What's coming will eventually come. It's just a pity that we still haven't figured out what exactly happened in the hundred years of blank History eight hundred years ago!"
Doctor Clover put down the Book in his Hand, sighed, and said with Regret.
"Everyone, prepare yourselves to welcome the People from the World Government."
Nicholas walked towards the Exit, leaving a Words as he walked.
When the Sound of his Words fell, his back had already disappeared into the Library.
After Nicholas left, Doctor Clover put down the Book in his Hand and scanned everyone in the Library.
"Disaster is about to befall Ohara. Everyone is Elite among Scholars, and you all have your own persistence."
Doctor Clover paused for a moment, then continued, "Isaac, Thomas, Stephen, Charles..."
"Those of you whose names I have called, you have joined us for the shortest Time, but I am honored to have worked with you all. Now..."
"Let us calmly and calmly face Everything that has long been expected!"
The Scholars' Eyes moved slightly, and then they said in unison, "Dedicate ourselves to truth!"
A short sentence, but powerful and forceful, containing strong Faith.
Then, Doctor Clover put down the work in his Hand, turned around, and walked towards the Office inside the Tree of Omniscience.
...
At the same Time, in a Sea Area not far from Ohara Island, several Ships of the World Government were heading towards Ohara. In the Ship in the very center, a group of men wearing Black Suit were vigilantly watching the movements around them.
"Lord Spandam, the Navy has sent us an inquiry, asking why we suddenly opened fire and Attack the Evacuation Ship?"
A Black Suit holding a Den Den Mushi in his Hand said respectfully to Spandam.
"Heh heh, those audacious Weapons should all be killed! Evacuation Ship, who can prove that the People on board are all innocent Ordinary People? What if there are Demons from Ohara who want to revive the Ancient Weapon on board? If you want to blame someone, blame those Scholars from Ohara who don't know Life and Death, Researching Anything but Poneglyph.
They have already angered those Old Man, they are finished! And do you know why I am an Officer and you are just an Ordinary Action member? If you don't know how to figure out what those Old Man mean, you will be an Action member for Life!
As for the Navy, reply to them that the Evacuation Ship is hiding dangerous elements from Ohara, and refused to stop the Ship for inspection and launched an Attack against us, understand?"
Spandam said, looking at the Subordinate holding the Den Den Mushi.
And that Subordinate was also a ruthless Person. He directly took out a Gun and shot himself in the Shoulder.
"U-U-Understand, it was th-those Weapons who Attack us first."
Looking at the Look of his Subordinate speaking through gritted teeth, Spandam stepped forward and patted the Place where he was shot, not caring at all about the painful Expression of his Subordinate, and said with Laughter, "Hahaha, Kid, you have potential. After this Mission is over, come under my command."
After speaking, he got up and walked towards the Deck.
And the other Black Suit behind him also followed closely, but without saying a word. In their hearts, they actually had no Respect for this Officer. In their opinion, this Weapon was able to reach a high Position entirely by flattering.
This Mission was just an Order from a higher level, requiring them to ensure Spandam's Safety, so they had no choice but to obey his Order.
Several hours later, inside the Tree of Omniscience.
"Old Man, you really have guts, daring to Research these Things explicitly prohibited by the World Government!"
Spandam looked at Doctor Clover and said with a sneer.
"I don't understand what you are talking about. Ohara has always only focused on Researching academics and has never Researched any Poneglyph you mentioned."
Doctor Clover said in a deep voice, obviously still wanting to prevent Ohara from suffering tragedy at the last moment.
"Still pretending? Do you think we would dare to launch a Buster Call without solid Evidence? Olvia and those Weapons who went with her all departed from Ohara, right? Calculate the Time, you shouldn't have had Time to transfer the Poneglyph located under the Tree of Omniscience yet."
Spandam Taunt.
Doctor Clover's Complexion changed, but he still said in a firm Tone:
"I demand to speak with the Five Elders, this is our Power!"
Doctor Clover said loudly.
"You want to talk to the Lords? Hahaha, how ridiculous! What Qualification does a Sinner like you have to talk to those Lords?!"
Spandam laughed until Tears came out.
"Then what if it's me? Do I have Qualification, Officer?"
Spandam's Laughter stopped abruptly.
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 414 Secret of the Five Elders
As this voice sounded, the air instantly became very quiet.
"N-Nicholas!!!"
Spandam saw Nicholas who suddenly appeared, his eyeballs almost popped out.
Originally, in Spandam's view, Ohara had no decent Resistance force at all, just a group of scholars who couldn't even truss a Chicken. Leading the team to launch the Buster Call could be said to be without any danger, and it could also add a significant stroke to his resume. As a result, Nicholas, who should have been in the New World, actually appeared in Ohara. The originally relaxed Mission, like a Vacation, instantly turned into a Hell difficulty Mission.
"Do I have the Qualification to talk to the Five Elders?"
Nicholas patted Spandam's cheek with the back of his hand, and said playfully.
"Yes... of course you do!"
Spandam, as expected of someone who could become an Officer of the CP Department, from Nicholas's appearance to his Reaction, it can be said that his response Ability is quite outstanding.
"Puru puru~"
"Mr. Nicholas, this is a Den Den Mushi specially for contacting the Five Elders, it will be connected soon."
Spandam held the Den Den Mushi in his hands and explained flatteringly to Nicholas, for fear that Nicholas would be unhappy and directly turn him to ashes.
"Spandam, what is the matter?"
Soon, a slightly deep and hoarse male voice came from the mouth of the Den Den Mushi.
"Ah, it's me, Nicholas."
As the Den Den Mushi was connected, whether it was the scholars of Ohara or the World Government personnel sent to deal with Ohara's affairs, they all stopped working and nervously watched Nicholas, who was in the center of attention.
"Mommy, who is Mr. Nicholas on the Phone Call with? Why do they all look so Nervousness?"
Robin, holding Olvia's hand with her small hand, looked at the Scene in front of her and asked curiously.
"Nicholas is talking to People at the center of Power in this World. Robin, do you remember what I taught you last night?"
Olvia looked at Robin and said Seriously.
"Yes, I remembered. Ma... Auntie."
Little Robin answered subconsciously. Hearing Robin's Words, Olvia also showed a Smile.
"Nicholas, what's the Thing?" The Five Elders on the other end of the Den Den Mushi asked, "I don't think the famous Thunder God of the New World would suddenly look for us Old Man. After all, you Emperors of the Sea should be busy expanding your Territory, shouldn't you?"
Nicholas just pretended not to hear the sarcasm in the Five Elders' Words, smiled indifferently, and then directly said, "Actually, it's nothing. I just plan to ask you to give me some Face and see if you can revoke the Buster Call on Ohara?"
"..."
The other end of the Den Den Mushi, hearing Nicholas's Words, couldn't help but fall into Silence.
After a moment, another voice came from the Den Den Mushi: "Buster Call is not just any other Order, it can't be revoked just by saying so. As the World Government's 'ultimate Weapon', if it is revoked because of a Pirate's Face, then where will the World Government's Face be placed!!!"
"Enough with the idle talk, Nicholas!" Another unnamed Five Elders spoke, "If you leave Ohara now, we can pretend nothing happened, otherwise we will regard it as you intending to start a War with the World Government!!!"
"Aren't we already in a State of War?" Nicholas said with a sneer, "Even if you launch a War, what can you do?"
"You—!" The Five Elders were momentarily speechless.
"Don't forget, we have a Weapon Transaction between us!" At this Time, another male voice came from the Den Den Mushi, "Don't you want to continue selling Weapons?"
"Ha?" Nicholas then said sarcastically, "You should first figure out that it is your World Government and even your Member Nations that need the Weapons manufactured by Wano Country and the Sea Prism Stone produced. Even if we lose you, there are still the Revolutionary Army and those Non-World Government Affiliated Nation and the Underworld Forces on the Grand Line. I am the seller, you are the buyer, and now it is a seller's Market, it's not me begging you to do Business. Your Threat is completely useless."
"..."
"..." Silence for a while, the Five Elders in the Den Den Mushi spoke, "Nicholas, name a Condition."
"Operation Fruit."
Nicholas slowly said.
And when they heard Operation Fruit, Spandam and Doctor Clover were all stunned for a moment, not understanding that the Condition Nicholas offered was actually a Devil Fruit.
"What do you want the Operation Fruit for?" After a moment of Silence, a voice suddenly came from the other side of the Den Den Mushi.
"Of course, I want to try to see if I can use the Operation Fruit to complete that Surgery that can be called a Miracle." Nicholas said with a Smile.
"Impossible!" As soon as Nicholas finished speaking, the Five Elders' voice of opposition immediately sounded from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.
"Where did you find out about this!?" The Five Elders' cold voice came from the Den Den Mushi. They really couldn't figure out where Nicholas got this biggest Secret about the Operation Fruit.
"Oh, that won't work? Then how about waiting until you find the Rubber Fruit and send it to me?" If Nicholas's previous mention of the Operation Fruit only shocked the Five Elders, then Nicholas's slip of the tongue about the Rubber Fruit made them somewhat panicked. After all, they knew the meaning behind the Rubber Fruit.
"What exactly do you know!?" The Five Elders' voice came from the Den Den Mushi. As Nicholas spoke, for the Five Elders, the Ohara Thing was already a small Thing. After all, compared to the Things Nicholas mentioned, the Thing of Ohara researching the Poneglyph, hehe.
"Nothing much, just found some interesting Things in Wano Country. By the way, that bald Old Man really doesn't look like the Existence who was once known as undefeated in his career and the strongest Swordsman of the Era. I just wonder if the First Generation Kitetsu in his hand has been crying and humming in its Sword Sheath for so many years without drinking Blood?" As Nicholas's Words fell, in the Chamber of Power in Holy Land Mary Geoise, a cold Light flashed in the eyes of the bald Big Shot among the Five Elders, and at the same Time, the Sword in his hand also made a low hum, showing the Wave in the Sword's master's Inner Thoughts.
"Ka!" Just as Nicholas was about to say Anything more, the Den Den Mushi on the other side was directly cut off. Spandam and Doctor Clover were left looking at each other, obviously neither of them understood why the Five Elders hung up the Phone Call directly after Nicholas just said a few Words.
And not long after the Den Den Mushi was cut off, a Bombardment suddenly exploded, and the Library in the Tree of Omniscience also Tremor.
"Boom!" A large patch of crimson Flame exploded on the Tree of Omniscience. The trunk of this Large Tree, which had stood in Ohara for thousands of years, was Instantly blown to pieces of wood.
Spandam raised his head, looked at the Place where the Explosion came from, took out the golden Den Den Mushi from his arms, and muttered. "Did I fucking give the Order? Did I? Didn't I? It seems... I fucking didn't give it!"
In the Library inside the Tree of Omniscience, facing the sudden Bombardment, Doctor Clover's Complexion changed drastically. His Chest heaved, and he pointed at Spandam in front of him and cursed directly. "You are committing a crime, you are destroying the Wealth that belongs to all of Human! You are not Human! Not Human!"
Spandam sneered, and then said disdainfully. "People on this Island who have researched the Poneglyph are all sinners, and they all deserve to die!"
As soon as Spandam finished speaking, another burst of intensive Cannon Fire came. Feeling that the scale of the Bombardment was getting bigger and bigger, Spandam also directly dialed the golden Den Den Mushi in his hand.
"Moshi Moshi, this is the Buster Call Flagship!" "Who told you to open fire! Don't you know I'm still on the Island!?" Spandam cursed directly.
"Officer Spandam, we received a direct Order from the Five Elders, the highest Power of the World Government, which is higher in priority than the Buster Call. So Officer Spandam, you'd better hurry up and evacuate, the next round of Cannon Fire is about to begin." After speaking, the Den Den Mushi hung up directly.
Looking at the golden Den Den Mushi in his hand, Spandam fell into Silence. And behind him, all the Black Suit men following him couldn't help but change color on their Faces, and everyone's Face turned green in an Instant. They seemed to have been abandoned.
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 415 Buster Call
"Officer, we are still on the island! What do we do?"
A suit man behind Spandam said, covered in sweat. Clearly, knowing the power of the Buster Call, they understood how dangerous their situation was.
Buster Call is an indiscriminate destructive attack on the area where the signal is sent. It is used to completely eliminate things and people in an area that poses a threat to the World Government's rule. Once launched, it will only stop after it is completely confirmed that the target area has been utterly destroyed.
Spandam's complexion changed upon hearing this, and cold sweat instantly flowed from his forehead.
"Quick! Quick! Quick, escort me out of here!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Spandam turned around and ran immediately. The Black Suit men guarded him in the center as they rushed towards outside the Tree of Omniscience.
As for Nicholas behind him, Spandam couldn't care less. After all, he understood that since the Five Elders had directly issued the Buster Call, it meant they didn't care about his life or death at all.
Nicholas, watching Spandam's back, silently raised his finger.
"Finger Pistol!"
Spandam, who was running, suddenly staggered. Then, in disbelief, he lowered his head to look at his chest. At the location of his heart, a penetrating wound had appeared. Under the powerful pressure of the heart, fresh blood spurted out directly from the wound.
"Save... save... me!"
Spandam said with difficulty, watching his subordinates swarm and flee outwards. However, facing imminent disaster, those subordinates had clearly forgotten that Spandam was their superior, and were only concerned with saving their own lives.
In despair, Spandam could only weakly watch the backs of his subordinates before his eyes went dark, and he completely lost consciousness.
Doctor Clover and a group of scholars inside the Library stood there in silence, watching Spandam, who had been arrogant just a moment ago, now fall to the ground lifeless.
"I'm sorry everyone, this is all my fault! If it weren't for me, the World Government wouldn't have noticed Ohara." Olvia said to everyone, her voice full of apology.
"Olvia, you are not wrong. Moreover, letting you go to sea to find the truth of history was agreed upon by everyone. If it weren't for the various data you sent back, our deciphering of the Poneglyph would not have been so fast. You are not wrong, and neither are we. The World Government is at fault!"
"That's right, the World Government is at fault!"
"Although we will die today, the truth of history will surely be revealed to the world one day."
"That's right, our like-minded comrades are all over the Four Seas and the Grand Line!"
"Darkness cannot obscure the dawn, and the dawn will surely arrive one day!"
The scholars spoke one after another, without the slightest fear of death. Their expressions showed only determination.
"In the world of pirates, how can you be embarrassed to call yourself Strongest if you don't solo a Buster Call?" After leaving a sentence that puzzled the scholars inside the Tree of Omniscience, Nicholas moved, leaping high into the air. Then, in the sky, he directly transformed into a Lightning, flying out from the Tree of Omniscience Library.
The Buster Call had been launched, and he had also begun to act. He believed that after soloing this Buster Call, the World Government's rule would collapse again in one corner.
"Load the cannons!"
"Ready!"
"Fire Cannon!"
Loud orders rang out from the warships. Immediately following the orders were earth-shattering Bombardment sounds that resounded through the Sky.
When Nicholas arrived outside the Tree of Omniscience and looked up, he saw Shells whistling, carrying a heavy smell of Gunsmoke, and indiscriminately smashing towards Ohara.
Seconds later, soaring Flames and Explosion sounds resounded.
Standing in front of the window of the Tree of Omniscience Library, Olvia, holding Robin's hand, along with Doctor Clover and others, watched Ohara engulfed in a Sea of Fire and Gunsmoke, their expressions frozen.
Amidst the Rumbling Sound of Shells, the Ground trembled, and the surrounding temperature suddenly seemed to rise a lot. Everywhere was engulfed in a Sea of Fire, even rapidly spreading towards the Tree of Omniscience.
In just an instant, Olvia reacted. She suddenly picked up Robin and ran towards outside the Tree of Omniscience. Although Nicholas had said someone had asked him to ensure her safety, Olvia dared not Gamble.
Olvia was not afraid of Death, but she did not want Robin to die in this Disaster before she had even begun her life. She wanted to find a glimmer of Hope for Robin.
"Boom boom boom boom boom!" Along with the Cannon Fire carpet Bombardment, the Sky of Ohara seemed to be dyed red. The original wooden Architecture had now turned into fiercely burning torches. Choking Black Smoke rushed into the nasal cavity, making people feel somewhat suffocated.
In just a few tens of seconds, the entire Ohara had become Hell on earth.
Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh! The whistling sound of Shells continued. Olvia suddenly looked up, her Pupils constricted. Among them, several Shells directly smashed into the massive trunk of the Tree of Omniscience, exploding in an instant, and huge Gunsmoke instantly covered it.
"Mama!" Robin, held in Olvia's arms, also stared blankly at the Scene before her. She really couldn't understand what had happened to Ohara, and why it would suddenly face such a Terror-inducing Blow.
"Robin, let's go!" Olvia looked at the Town that resembled Hell and strode towards running out of the Town.
"Olvia, come with me quickly! The Navy has launched a Buster Call!" Just then, a Giant Form crashed through burning Houses and came in front of Olvia and Robin.
"Salon!" Olvia said in Surprise. Originally, she had wanted to find Salon, but she didn't expect Salon to take the initiative to come find them. Now, the chances of survival were even greater.
"Quick, don't say so much, come with me. I will protect you and get you out of here!" Salon said with a serious Complexion, looking at the Navy Battleship on the Coastline.
As a Marine, he was very clear that although this was just a Cannon Fire carpet Bombardment, when the number of Shells reached a certain Degree, it would be enough to completely destroy Ohara. Even a Giant Race like him could not survive under such a carpet Bombardment. The only thing to do was to escape.
Not to mention the Monsters leading the Buster Call and the Elite Vice Admiral from Marine Headquarters and the Elite Marines they led.
The pungent smell of Gunsmoke permeated everywhere. Flames were burning everywhere in the Town, and billowing Thick Smoke covered the Sky and the sun. Ohara, which was the Archaeological Holy Land just a moment ago, had now turned into Hell on earth.
On the Streets of the Town, inside the Houses, lying scattered everywhere, were people who were dead or seriously injured. Cries and screams were mixed with the sounds of Cannon Fire, causing Vice Admiral Issho on the Warship to close his Eyes, unable to bear it.
Only at this moment did he understand how difficult the path to changing this World from within the World Government was.
"Vice Admiral Issho, an unidentified person has appeared in the Sky above Ohara, it's Thunder God Nicholas!" Suddenly, the somewhat panicked voice of a messenger sounded, causing a commotion among the Marines on the entire Warship.
On the other side, Salon, leading Robin and Olvia, was also rushing towards the Southwest Corner of Ohara.
But when they arrived at the Coast, there were already two Warships waiting for them here. The dark Muzzles, as they turned, were already aimed at his Giant Form.
"You two hide here and don't move." "I will deal with these two Warships!" Salon took a deep breath and said in a deep voice to Olvia.
Being a Vice Admiral of Marine Headquarters, dealing with two Warships was still not a problem for him. His only worry was that if his movements were too big, it would easily attract the attention of the Monsters within the Navy.
Once the Monsters of Navy Headquarters set their sights on them, they would not be able to escape Ohara at all. "Salon, you must be careful!" Olvia said worriedly, looking at the two huge Navy Warships.
"Don't worry!" Turning his head and giving the two of them a reassuring look, Salon started walking. After a few steps, he accelerated and ran towards the two Warships.
Chih! Before Salon's Speed could fully pick up, a sound of Cold Air spreading was heard. Then, Salon's ankle was covered in Ice, and it quickly spread towards his leg.
