In a certain sea area of the New World, a small island quietly stood. On the island was a Marine branch base.
It belonged to Marine G-6 Base, its purpose being to maintain peace in a nearby World Government affiliated nation.
At this moment, within this Marine branch base, the Marines were in a state of chaos.
The cause of the confusion was a large snail floating in the sea not far away.
"Ze ha ha ha! Doffy, can you really do it?"
On the snail's head, Teach held a telescope in his left hand and a cherry pie in his right. While observing the Marine base, he crammed the excessively sweet cherry pie into his mouth, never forgetting to speak to his companion beside him.
Food residue sprayed everywhere from his mouth.
"Fuffuffu, just you wait and see, Teach!"
Doflamingo had already assembled the heavy cannon, its thick barrel aimed at the distant base.
Hmph!
Crude, fat bastard, let me show you my power!
"World! Get ready for me!"
Doflamingo roared.
Byrnndi World, who had long since become a mere slave, stood before the cannon barrel, raising his hand high.
"Oh?"
Teach's eyes widened, quite interested.
Then.
Boom!
The heavy cannon roared!
The massive shell, at the moment of exiting the barrel, brushed past World's right hand, which was infused with Armament Haki.
In the next instant, the shell, already taller than a man, further expanded to the size of a small mountain!
But more than its size, the greater change was its speed!
This mountain-sized shell instantly became too fast for the human eye to perceive.
Almost the moment it exited the barrel, the next blink of an eye, it had already smashed heavily into the Marine base not far away.
Light!
It was as if a brand new sun had just bloomed before his eyes.
Teach felt an unparalleled intense light that almost prevented him from opening his eyes.
Then, his ears went deaf.
The earth-shattering roar almost destroyed Teach's hearing.
Next came the furious winds that sought to blow everything away.
The sea was swept up, raising giant waves one after another. Fortunately, the large snail had long since withstood the tests of various extreme environments at sea and remained as steady as a mountain.
When the light dissipated, what Teach saw was the Marine base completely leveled to the ground, with only thick black smoke rising.
"Oh!!"
Teach's expression was exceptionally exaggerated, and then he suddenly burst into laughter. "Ze ha ha ha ha! Such power! Doffy, you brat, you were hiding such a trick!"
Sure enough, I made the right decision!
This guy, who Roa values so much, indeed has something to him.
"Fuffuffuffu! There's still plenty you don't know!"
Doflamingo laughed triumphantly.
Now you know how formidable I am, you scoundrel!
Behind them, Bege pouted. What's he showing off for? Without me to transport your equipment, what's the difference between your ability and a blank slate?
"Ze ha ha ha! Bullet and King should have already finished their tasks,"
Teach laughed heartily. "In that case, all Marine bases in this sea area have been cleared!"
"Not just this sea area!"
Doflamingo's laughter grew louder. "Fuffuffuffu! The entire New World is about to be turned upside down!"
"I truly look forward to what happens next!"
After dealing with this branch base, the large snail quickly carried the trio back, soon rejoining the grand fleet.
At this time, Dylan, Bullet, and King had all successfully returned.
As for Roa, he was preparing for an interview.
"Suddenly wearing this, it feels a bit strange, doesn't it?"
Dressed in a black suit, Roa stood before a full-length mirror, awkwardly tugging at his tie. He looked at himself in the mirror and felt uncomfortable. "Toki, what do you think?"
He had always preferred various elaborate formal attire, always dressed as if attending a banquet.
The reason he suddenly switched to this outfit was purely because he was about to act as the group's spokesperson and needed to appear as serious as possible.
Behind Roa, Toki Amatsuki was also in a small suit. The stiff, crisp fabric, unbelievably, clung to her graceful curves, outlining an ascetic yet breathtaking beauty.
However, the beautiful woman slightly turned her head, avoiding Roa's back.
She was immersed in a deep sadness.
After all, she had just witnessed Roa smashing an island into oblivion.
Roa gently twitched his nose, feeling even more pleased.
This was the joy of having Toki Amatsuki as his secretary.
Hehe.
Soon after, the interview began.
The reporter from the New World Times, a newspaper not as famous as the World Economy News but still quite well-known in the New World, looked nervously at the formally dressed youth before him.
"So, Lord Roa, shall we... begin?"
Please, please don't say the wrong thing and offend this important figure. The whole world knows his heart is smaller than a needle's eye!
"Hmm."
Roa's face was solemn, but coupled with his still somewhat youthful face, it created a stark contrast.
However, the reporter, whom Roa had summoned, pretended not to notice. He took a deep breath, calming his apprehension and excitement, and asked the question that would undoubtedly shock the world:
"Lord Roa, what exactly do you intend to do?"
Almost simultaneously.
Marijoa, Pangea Castle, Room of Flowers.
The Five Elders gathered urgently.
"This is rebellion! A bunch of flies are turning the entire New World into their garbage dump!"
"What's going on?! How could these guys suddenly act together?!"
"Who else could it be? Besides that damned scum Roa, who else has this ability?!"
"Our worst fears have come true. That bastard Roa has truly rebuilt the Rocks Pirates!"
"Shiki, Wang Zhi, Silver Axe, John, Kaido, Charlotte Linlin! Only Whitebeard is missing!"
"Haven't they added Redfield? Ha, the guy who was fiercely fighting Golden Lion just over a year ago has actually been recruited too! That brat Roa is really going to be the second Rocks!"
"There can be no more hesitation. Their goal is to seize the entire New World! If we indulge them, where will the Government put its face?!"
"Have Sengoku immediately mobilize all Marine forces! CP0 will also act in conjunction! They want a war, then we'll give them a war! This time, perhaps we should also make a move!"
"Agreed!"
The terrifying machinery of the World Government began to rumble into motion.
The Marine Hero, who was pursuing the Roger Pirates in a certain sea area of Paradise, received immediate orders.
"What? The Rocks Pirates are resurrecting! I'm coming back right away!"
At Marine Headquarters G-1 Base, Admiral Sengoku, stationed there, also received a call from Headquarters.
"Brother Sengoku, has the situation truly become this severe?"
"It's more severe than you imagine!"
From the other end of the Den Den Mushi came the Marine Fleet Admiral's gritted voice. "Now, aside from G-1 Base, there is no other Marine base in the New World! Those audacious pirates, they aim to seize the entire New World!"
"Garp is already on his way back, and Zephyr and Tsuru are going immediately too! This time, besides me guarding Headquarters, all available combat power will be deployed! You will be the supreme commander!"
"Yes!"
Marine Headquarters.
Recruit Training Camp.
Zephyr, his face grim, hastily walked out of his dormitory after packing his bags.
Roa, that brat who deserved to be cut into a thousand pieces, had finally caused chaos!
As he reached the training camp's main gate, he suddenly saw a man huffing and puffing, carrying a heavy barbell while running laps.
Zephyr paused, then called out to the man, "Kuzan, come here!"
"Sensei Zephyr?"
The curly-haired man named Kuzan ran over, looking confused. "What's wrong?"
Zephyr said indifferently, "Follow me!"
After a moment of愣, Kuzan's heart suddenly burned with passion. "Sensei Zephyr, is there a mission you need my help with?"
"Get ready, recruit!"
Zephyr didn't stop, striding out of the training camp. "This time's enemies,"
"Are the Rocks Pirates!"
"Ah??"
Terrifying power began to converge on the New World; a battle comparable to the God Valley incident seemed imminent.
However, most people in the world still knew nothing.
Even in the New World, only a very small number of countries, those affiliated with the World Government, knew of this sudden, massive change.
The apocalypse is coming!
These affiliated kings, upon receiving urgent contact from the World Government, were each scared out of their wits.
If the Marines could no longer protect them, what would they do?
One phone call after another was made to Marijoa, but the only response they received was to remain calm.
The kings immediately swore.
Remain calm my ass!
Remain calm in this situation?
But even so, this bombshell news was still only circulating among the upper echelons of these affiliated nations.
Even the citizens of affiliated nations knew almost nothing, let alone those in non-affiliated countries.
But fortunately, a certain enthusiastic individual had long since prepared.
That afternoon, news birds soared high in the New World.
Newspapers fluttered down like snowflakes, scattering across the New World.
Those who picked up a newspaper saw the photo on the front page, featuring a stern-faced youth trying to appear serious but giving off the impression he couldn't hold back a laugh.
And so, an unprecedented tempest finally swept across the entire New World.
"How can this be possible! Have the Rocks Pirates really resurrected?"
"Shiki, Charlotte Linlin, Kaido, Wang Zhi, Silver Axe, Captain John, Redfield, and Roa! This lineup is no worse than the original Rocks Pirates!"
"I knew it! Hahaha! I knew it all along! That guy Roa would rebuild the Rocks Pirates one day! He's Rocks' successor!"
"All Marine bases in the New World have been destroyed! What will this sea area become?!"
"That guy Roa said they want to seize the entire New World! Not even the original Rocks was so insane!"
"The World Government, and the Marines! Only they can stop those monsters!"
"Whether they can stop them or not, the New World is finished now! Even if they defeat those monsters, the Marines won't have enough power to restore order to the New World!"
"Affiliated nations, what should we affiliated nations do?! That madman Roa said if the Government dares to retaliate, they'll randomly pick an affiliated nation to annihilate! How can anyone be so crazy in this world?!"
"Hahaha! I've been wanting to plunder the affiliated nations for a long time; they're the real fat sheep!"
"Hehehehe! The pampered affiliated nations are finally coming to the real New World! Welcome to hell!"
Almost instantly, the entire New World erupted in a frenzy.
But it wasn't just the New World.
This matter could no longer be kept secret. Various newspapers swarmed like vultures, frantically reprinting the news and spreading it worldwide!
And so, the next to be shocked was the entire world.
There were only six sea areas in the entire world, and now a pirate group actually wanted to seize one of them!
Never in hundreds of years had such a shocking event occurred.
The world was waiting.
Waiting for the next development.
And among all the people waiting across the world, some seemed more important.
New World, Sphinx.
"Old Man! This time, we're in big trouble!"
Marco's face was extremely grim. "Those bastards are actually crazy enough to do this!"
Before him, Whitebeard, clutching the newspaper, also had a face as dark as water.
"And Roa, that guy, I can't even imagine how he managed to recruit Shiki!"
Marco paced back and forth anxiously, large beads of sweat dripping down his forehead. "If they truly succeed in seizing the entire New World, then what will happen to Sphinx?"
Whitebeard's chest rose and fell sharply, clearly deeply shaken at this moment.
Yes, if those scums seize the New World, what will happen to this country?
Grand Line, first half, a certain sea area in Paradise.
"Hahaha! Captain! The Rocks Pirates have resurrected again!"
Jabra laughed heartily, holding a newspaper. "It must be Roa, right? Only that kid has the ability to connect all those unruly monsters!"
"He's truly insane,"
Rayleigh shook his head helplessly. "The entire New World might become a battlefield now. No matter who wins or loses, that sea area will face another great disaster."
"Battlefield?"
On the ship's railing nearby, Roger, who was busy playing with a baby, looked up. "I think those guys probably don't want to directly fight the World Government again."
"Indeed."
Beside him, Olvia, leaning against the ship's railing and hidden in Roger's shadow, spoke faintly while flipping through a book. "To seize the New World, they might not need to clash head-on with the World Government."
"Huh?"
Marine Headquarters G-1 Base.
At the port of this large fortress, which was comparable in scale to Marine Headquarters.
Marine Admiral Sengoku stood quietly there.
Beside him was a very displeased Garp, picking his nose, and a stern-faced Zephyr.
Behind the three standing at the very front were a group of Marine Headquarters Vice Admirals, led by Grand Staff Officer Tsuru.
However, there were also three individuals mixed among them who were not yet Vice Admirals.
"Oh! You must be Senior Sakazuki and Senior Borsalino, right? Hello, I'm Kuzan!"
The curly-haired man muttered softly, "Sensei Zephyr told us many stories about you! He said you two are the most outstanding among all the new recruits!"
"Oh? Sensei Zephyr actually speaks well of me?"
Borsalino smiled. "Kuzan, right? This batch of recruits hasn't even graduated yet, and Sensei Zephyr brought you here. Seems like you're an incredible monster."
However, it reminds me of not-so-pleasant memories.
"Arara,"
Kuzan scratched the back of his head, somewhat embarrassed. "I'm not that amazing, really."
"Silence!"
The cold-faced Sakazuki's voice grew even colder. "They're here!"
Borsalino and Kuzan simultaneously looked up. In the distance, on the sea, an incredibly vast ship was approaching.
As the ship gradually sailed into the harbor, Sengoku suddenly spoke loudly, "The Five Elders are about to arrive! All personnel below Rear Admiral, lower your heads!"
Garp, beside him, couldn't help but curl his lips. Just making an appearance, eh? They're putting on quite a show.
Zephyr's eyes were equally cold. The Celestial Dragons exploited the entire world, and the Five Elders were Celestial Dragons above Celestial Dragons!
However, as Sengoku gave his command, a simultaneous lowering of heads resounded throughout the port.
And at this moment, on the deck of the steadily docking large ship, soft footsteps echoed.
An elderly man, dressed in a black suit, wearing a long coat, with a tall stature and a long white beard, walked to the bow of the ship.
Behind him followed a group of CP0 agents in white suits.
Looking down at the Marines in the harbor below, one of the Five Elders, the world's highest authority, Saint Marcus Mars, spoke calmly, "Let's depart."
