"That's right, when I saw that lightning bolt, I thought we were dead… Only later, when I saw you flying in the sky, did I realize that was you unleashing it…"
Silas was not much older than Gram. She was naturally a dreamy girl who adored heroes. When she saw Ye Jia actually doing something only a deity could do, Ye Jia's figure in her eyes was simply as dazzling as the sun, utterly handsome, fulfilling all her fantasies!
His robes dancing in the wind, his handsome profile illuminated by lightning, his cold eyes brimming with killing intent… Everything, absolutely everything, seemed to perfectly match the Prince Charming in Silas's dreams, flawless and invincible!
Silas's gaze at Ye Jia grew tender, and her heart began to race uncontrollably. Her face flushed, showing the shy demeanor only a girl in love would reveal. Instantly, both Gram and Silas were like little fan-girls, their eyes filled with fervent admiration.
"Ye Jia… you…" Only Qiu Li, who knew what major event had transpired, had an unnatural expression on his face.
The Celestial Dragon was dead! Ye Jia had personally killed a Celestial Dragon!
Such a world-shaking event had actually happened, and right before his eyes!
"Qiu Li, I know what you want to say. No need to persuade me. A Celestial Dragon dared to threaten me, which means he was prepared to be eliminated by me!" A flash of fierce resolve appeared in Ye Jia's eyes.
"He wanted to harm my family, so I will take his life! I'll make him regret his words in hell! Daring to provoke me, Ye Jia, was the biggest mistake of his life!" Ye Jia felt not a shred of regret for killing the Celestial Dragon.
No matter who it was, anyone who dared to threaten Ye Jia's family would be mercilessly wiped out by him! The Celestial Dragon was the first. If similar Celestial Dragons appeared in the future, he would not hesitate to deal with them.
"I understand…" Qiu Li took a deep breath, his previously unnatural face regaining composure and confidence. He was indeed wary of the power behind the Celestial Dragons.
He knew very well what kind of entities killing a Celestial Dragon would provoke… That kind of power was not something he could currently resist. It wasn't the Grim Reaper Pirate Group that he could directly face!
Therefore, he tried every possible means to dissuade Ye Jia, hoping to stop this conflict from escalating. But in the end, everything still happened. Despite his every attempt to dissuade him, Ye Jia still killed the Celestial Dragon, and even utterly destroyed the Celestial Dragon's ship along with him!
Since the matter had already occurred, Qiu Li's worries were now useless. "Next, let's begin to properly welcome the wrath of the World Government and the pursuit of Marine Headquarters!" Qiu Li revealed a helpless smile. It was hard to say whether aligning with this captain was good or bad, but since he had made his choice, he had to endure it!
"Don't worry, the World Government and the Marines won't find us that easily." Ye Jia pouted. "Look, their ship and crew are all gone. There are no witnesses, and no clues to investigate. That's enough to give them a headache!"
"Let's go. Let's leave this place first. I'll use my barrier to push the ship out of this large hole, and then we'll set sail!" "Haha, you're right! Let's go!" Ye Jia used his barrier to slowly push the ship out of the large hole.
Leaving the area where they were caught and pulled in, they returned to normal waters, then quickly resumed their original course.
…
Just one or two hours after the Grim Reaper left the Omertá, several dark figures gradually emerged from the sea surface, rapidly approaching the large hole. When these dark figures revealed their true faces, it was discovered that they were all heavily armed Marine warships!
The blue seagull emblem representing the Marines was particularly conspicuous. What had arrived were not just a few warships, but a dense, countless fleet, at least twenty or more, all speeding in this direction!
"Admiral Kizaru, the location where the ship signal disappeared is right ahead… There's a large hole there!" The sentry, standing at a high point, saw the large hole continuously gushing seawater inwards. He was startled and immediately shouted loudly.
On the deck of the leading warship, a slender man, dressed in yellow and white clothes, with a cloak of justice representing an Admiral draped over his shoulders, wearing a pair of sunglasses, looked like a monkey. Yet, he was a middle-aged man who seemed too lazy to be interested in anything, standing at the front. He was one of Marine Headquarters' three great Admirals—Kizaru!
The first Glimmer-Glimmer Fruit Ye Jia obtained was Kizaru's ability. However, in terms of the development and use of the fruit, Kizaru was naturally far stronger than Ye Jia.
"A big hole?" Kizaru listened to the sentry's report, pushed down his sunglasses, and glanced into the distance. "Oh, there's a big, pitch-black hole there, indeed."
"Where's the Celestial Dragon?"
"Reporting, Admiral Kizaru, besides the large hole, we haven't seen any ships or people!" The sentry hastily reported.
Kizaru's eyes narrowed slightly. With his intelligence as an Admiral, he clearly guessed the development of events. "I'll go take a look first." Leaving a single sentence, Admiral Kizaru's figure instantly vanished from the spot.
Only a yellow flash of light was seen rapidly moving back and forth across the ocean in front, surveying the surroundings. Afterward, he returned to the warship.
"It can be confirmed." Admiral Kizaru still maintained his lazy demeanor. "Communicate to Headquarters: a Celestial Dragon was killed, and the ship was destroyed. This is an extremely heinous incident. I recommend setting the priority level to maximum."
The Marine soldiers on the ship, hearing this, were instantly so shocked their eyeballs almost popped out. Someone actually dared to kill a Celestial Dragon?! What kind of guy was that?! Could it be one of the Four Emperors of the New World?! Perhaps only they would have the guts to kill a Celestial Dragon!
At the same time, the news spread back to Marine Headquarters, causing a massive shock throughout! Not only Marine Headquarters, but even the World Government, which had received the news, after a brief silence, erupted in a thunderous rage!
"How dare they lay hands on a Celestial Dragon! Damn it! These poor, despicable pirates are becoming increasingly arrogant. They must be thoroughly punished!!"
"Issue my command: starting from the area near where the Celestial Dragon was killed, extend the coverage indefinitely. Anyone identified as a pirate is to be immediately arrested. Those who resist are to be killed on sight!"
