It’s a headache. A monster with this physique can still fight for two more days while enduring its injuries.
Chapter 52 Great Retreat
With a loud bang, the storm that had been raging over Mary Geoise for two hours finally dispersed. A dark green shadow fell from the sky and slammed heavily into the ground not far from Noah, creating a large pit with flying sand and smoke.
When the dust cleared, we saw a dragon lying in the pit. There were a few scars on the dragon's body, which looked a bit scary, but its overall aura was fine, just a little weaker. It seemed that it still had good combat power.
On the contrary, Long was very surprised when he saw Noah's appearance. How could he be so miserable in just two hours? It was normal for the strong to fight for eight days and seven nights on this sea. Usually, one day of fighting was just a warm-up phase. Noah's fighting style was a bit strange.
This can't be blamed on Noah. In the first match, he played CP0. The opponent used the power of the fruit and played some psychological warfare. In the end, he was quickly beaten to death. In the second match, he played Sakaski. There was a clear difference in strength between the two. Basically, Noah was beaten for an hour. He was beaten to death. At the last moment, he used the seastone to counterattack.
Even so, Akainu still retained some combat power. According to his style on the sea, that physical strength was enough for Akainu to fight Noah for another two days.
The next person to land right after Long was Kong. The commander-in-chief also had a few wounds on his body, but overall he didn't look like he had any serious problems.
Looking at Akainu's wound and sensing the weak breath, Cyborg was very dissatisfied.
"How can the admiral candidate of the navy be in such a state now? A mere brat has made you so embarrassed. How can you control the sea in the future? Back off, and leave the rest to me."
"Yes"
Akainu didn't make any excuses for himself and walked directly behind Cyborg Sora.
Noah helped Long up, and the two looked at each other and could only smile bitterly. This holy land of Marijoa was indeed difficult to fight. Could it be that Tiger was the one with the domineering luck?
"Just surrender, you two little brats. I will give you a decent punishment."
"Mr. Cyborg, have you seen the flames of Mary Geoise? That is our dignity."
"Stubborn!"
The steel bone was possessed by the armed color, ready to go all out to take down the two little ghosts. The little ghost who played with the sword was no longer good, it was a flaw. As long as he attacked him fiercely, Garp's son would be helpless. He is worthy of being the representative of justice of the older generation. He can be the commander-in-chief of the entire army without any conscience.
When Cyborg was about to attack, Noah and Dragon released their Conqueror Haki together, and after buying 1 second of reaction time, Dragon rushed into Marijoa with Noah, forcing Cyborg to be cautious and not fight without scruples. If he accidentally hit a Celestial Dragon, even the commander-in-chief of the entire army would be in trouble.
When they entered Marijoa, they found that the place was full of fire. Among the slaves who were released, some of them were mentally twisted and did not leave at all. Instead, they set fires and killed people everywhere. There were also some slaves who were born as pirates. At this time, they were greedy and were still robbing treasures. For these people, they could only leave it to fate.
Passing through the fire, they continued to rush towards the red earth cliff. Noah used his observation Haki to sense it, but he didn't find the body of the Celestial Dragon. There was something strange in Mary Joa. Now was not the time to explore, escaping was the most important thing.
The steel bones behind were all furious. Damn little devil, too many tricks. After entering Mary Geoise, he really didn't dare to attack with all his strength, and could only keep firing attacks with finger guns to harass.
But no matter how Cyborg attacked, the two men in front did not stop for a moment, even after being hit.
In a flash, the two groups crossed the entire Marijoa. The red clay cliff was in sight. Xiong was still guarding there, and the others, including Robin, had already gone down. This was not the first time they had practiced retreat, and everyone had a clear division of labor.
After meeting up with Xiong, he didn't waste any words and continued to strike with his palm. The three of them flew down to the Red Earth Continent together.
Cyborg would not give up at this time and jumped down. With his physique, this height was nothing, not to mention he had the Moon Step. If he didn't die from the fall, he would chase them to death. He would not let these people go no matter what. How could he, the commander-in-chief of the entire army, have the face to do such a thing in the headquarters of the World Government?
After flying to the sea surface, the bubbles disappeared. At this time, the bear had not yet developed the ability to carry people for long distances. So when they reached the sea, they had to change their method of moving forward. The tornado created a strong wind and carried the bear and Noah forward, catching up with the fleet.
As soon as Noah stepped onto the fleet, he fainted. Ivankov and Robin rushed over to take a look. Fortunately, his life was not in danger, but his body was in a mess. They didn't know if he could be cured.
At this time, Cyborg and Akainu also caught up. When they arrived at the open sea, Akainu's devil fruit was finally able to work. Although he was seriously injured, he was still able to contain the entire fleet.
"Meteor Volcano"
Although the scale was much smaller, it was still very lethal to the fleet. Looking at the meteor shower, everyone on the ship was desperate. They had already escaped from Marijoa, but still couldn't return home?
"Fishman Jutsu·Secret·Water Heart·Sea Flow Shoulder Throw" x3
At this time, the fishmen who were hiding in the water took action under the leadership of Tiger. If the meteor volcano fired by Akainu in his victorious period, the fishmen would naturally not be able to catch it, but now the move fired by the seriously injured Akainu can be caught by everyone working together.
Waves of seawater were thrown into the sky and collided with the fireballs in the sky. Amid the roar, the seawater turned into heavy rain and fell, while the fireballs were extinguished and washed away.
Seeing that his group attack was taken over by the fishmen, Akainu's face was almost turning into that of Black Dog.
Kong was speechless when he saw Akainu fail again. Although he was seriously injured, he was still accused of incompetence, and the injury was caused by the kid on the other side. It seems that it will be difficult for Akainu to become a marine admiral in a dozen years.
He had no choice but to go up by himself. Steel Bone walked on the waves and punched out a shock wave. This was an absolute physical attack with great power. Long had no choice but to jump out of the boat to take the attack. For the time being, he was the only one in the fleet who could take it.
But suddenly, a sword energy came from a distance, just in time to block the shock wave of Cyborg.
"Oh, oh. I was fishing nearby and saw the commander-in-chief of the World Government's army bullying a kid, so I couldn't help but intervene. What's going on here?"
I saw a small boat in the distance rowing towards the center of the battlefield at a very fast speed. Sitting on the boat was a middle-aged man with a sword on his back.
"Pluto Rayleigh! This is none of your business, stay away and I'll catch you another day."
"I'm just curious about what's going on with all the fuss. It turns out there's an old guy bullying people. I'm a kind-hearted person and I can't stand this. So, Mr. Cyborg, let's have a showdown."
Kong was furious. He knew that Rayleigh would not really get involved in Noah's affairs. Before Roger surrendered, he had talked with the World Government and the Five Elders, so there had been no arrests for the Pirate King's crew over the years. But this did not mean that Rayleigh was qualified to come out and make comments.
Everything that happened tonight made Cyborg doubt the majesty of the World Government. How could there be so many bastards who had no respect and only wanted to destroy order?
With a burst of air, Gang Gukong rushed towards Rayleigh, coming with anger and naturally murderous aura. The two men's swords and fists collided, setting off a tsunami. The shock wave from the fist and the slash from the great swordsman collided on the sea, and the power of the shock wave directly pressed down a large area of the sea. The remnant of the sword energy cut a small trench.
Seeing this scene, Noah finally realized how much advantage he had gained in the battle in Marijoa. While the two masters were fighting, the fleet left the battle circle at full speed. It was too dangerous here. The sea beasts pulling the boats ran forward desperately. The instinct of the creatures helped a lot this time. There was no need to control the current, just control the direction.
Seeing Noah and the others running away, Akainu wanted to continue chasing them, but after being almost knocked into the sea by Dragon, he realized that with his seriously injured body, he would be a waste if he met a master, so he turned around and rushed back to the battlefield to plunder, and at the same time he hated Noah even more.
Noah was not worried about Rayleigh. He was not an idiot who would go into the Marine Headquarters alone. Rayleigh could easily escape from such a situation.
After returning to the uninhabited island where we set out, everyone finally felt relieved and was temporarily safe.
The people who were not seriously injured began to arrange for the rescued people to get off the boat to rest, and the scene was in a mess. Noah, who was on the stretcher, suddenly remembered something and called the big bear over.
"Do you still have the energy?"
"And, is it that thing?"
"Well, there has to be a finishing touch."
Then the bear dragged out three boxes from the corner, and flew off one by one, but to different destinations.
One flew to Marijoa, one flew to Marinfando, and one flew to the Sabaody Archipelago. The three boxes exploded after they flew over their destinations, and a pile of paper fell like snow.
On the island, Robin curiously asked what it was.
"Hmm~ It's like a declaration of war against the old world. It's time to make our voice heard to the world."
Chapter 53 Reaction afterwards
"Name?"
"Nicole"
"Where is the house?"
"East China Sea, Tuotuo Island."
"Okay, take this paper and go over there to queue up for registration. We will arrange to send you home in the next few days."
"Thank you, thank you, thank you so much."
"Next~"
On the nameless island in the doldrums, Noah was still lying on the stretcher, watching Long and the revolutionary army arranging the rescued people in an orderly manner, registering them, distributing supplies, and dividing them into groups according to the destinations they were going to.
I can't help but sigh that everyone has their own expertise when it comes to handling the details of affairs. He can explain the theory, lead the direction, and make general plans and layouts. But he is really not good at arranging affairs in detail.
When it comes to pacifying and arranging these people, humans are better, but other intelligent races are a bit troublesome. The Celestial Dragons have a strong hobby for hunting novelties, and it's not just the Celestial Dragons, many nobles are the same, and they all like to collect rare and precious races.
Those who can be sent back home are the best, such as the mermen and fishmen rescued this time, who can go home with Tiger. The long-armed, long-legged and snake-headed races in the new world can also be sent back, although it may be a little troublesome.
Amazon Lily of the Calm Belt, this needs to be delivered by Long himself, but Noah can't deliver it at this time, he is still lying down. Although I really want to see it, unfortunately I will have to wait until next time.
Those who can't be sent back are very difficult to deal with, such as the Fur Tribe. Zou is a giant elephant that keeps walking in the New World. It has no magnetic field and no pointer, so it is impossible to find where it is. But there are really quite a few Fur Tribe here. This kind of Fur Tribe, which is rare in the New World, is a very good collection for the Celestial Dragons. Basically, most of the 19 royal families in Marijoa have Fur Tribe slaves.
I still have to ask Rayleigh later. I remember that Cat Viper and Inuarashi once followed Kozuki Oden on Roger's pirate ship. They were crew members together, so they should have contact information.
Among these slaves, there are even residents of Sky Island. It seems that the only one who can defeat the Celestial Dragons in the race collection is Charlotte Linlin.
There are quite a few sky islands in the One Piece world. The most famous one is the sky island together with Gaya Island, the movable weather island Visalia, and Bica where Enelu was born.
The fur tribe at least knew they were from Zou, but the people of Sky Island really didn't know which sky island they came from. Let the dragon head take care of all these problems. Sending so many people from different races and forces back home is an informal diplomatic act of the Revolutionary Army, which will be of great assistance to future development. We have already gained so much benefit, so we should do more.
Not everyone wants to go home. Many are already homeless. When they became slaves, their families were probably already broken up. Most of these people chose to join the revolutionary army. People who have experienced hardships and have nothing will become the backbone of the fight against the old world, and will roar to make the world tremble.
Tiger came over with three little girls and said that they wanted to thank their benefactor in person. Noah, who was lying on a stretcher, said that it didn't matter, just come, if you want to thank someone for a favor, just accept it, there's no need to be shy.
I took a look at the little girl leading the group, and she looked familiar. Then I looked again, eh, Boa Hancock? Oh, that's right, the three sisters were the ones who escaped during the operation to liberate Marijoa. I was so busy that I forgot about it.
Noah really doesn't have any idea about Hancock, and he won't have any idea about her when he grows up. He is not interested in aesthetics, nor does he plan to have a confidante. He is now focused on his career and the world government, and has no time to deal with love matters.
Maybe it's because Noah looks ordinary, and Hancock only feels grateful to his benefactor, but not longing for him. That's right, he's not a pervert.
After a brief chat, Hancock took her sister away, and Noah returned to peace. He sensed his physical condition, which was quite bad. The biggest problem was that there were so many problems, which was a bit miserable. The CP0 toxin was like a cancer, entangled in his body and affected his recovery.
If he had been able to seek help from a doctor at the first time, it would have been easy to expel the poison. He still had the physical fitness. Unfortunately, there was another life-and-death battle, which made the poison penetrate deeper. In the middle, Ivankov's hormone fruit only stimulated the body's immunity and suppressed the poison.
That CP0 said that Noah would be poisoned to death with 4 knives, which made sense. Noah was now equivalent to being hit by and a half knives. He was not dead, but half dead. He himself was not worried about what to do next. There were many extraordinary abilities in this world. He knew of or ways to solve this problem. As long as he didn't die on the spot, it would be easy.
The most terrifying thing in this world is not getting hurt, but getting sick. Just look at how a tough guy like Roger died of illness. If you have a super strong physique, you will get a super strong disease.
Time on the island passed quickly in the busyness. Some people have already been transferred and embarked on the journey home with the secret assistance of the Revolutionary Army. Yes, the itinerary must be kept secret. The World Government must not know about it. It is obvious what the most explosive thing on the sea is right now. With the bounty of these people, they must not underestimate the evil of human nature.
The sea was indeed in turmoil. As the news birds of the World Economic News flew to all corners of the sea, everyone in the world knew that an extremely horrific attack had occurred in the holy land of Marijoa. Morgans immediately produced various eye-catching headlines, and the printing machines were running at full capacity. Some local tabloids also followed suit.
The Holy Land of Marijoa is breached, and the World Government loses face
《The Marine Admiral Candidate suffered a crushing defeat on the top of the clay! 》
The Hero Who Freed the Slaves? The Thug Who Destroyed the World
"A punitive manifesto against the most evil criminals who declared war on the World Government"
Along with the new wanted warrant, it was thrown into the sea.
The main culprit: The remnants of Noah O'Hara planned to attack the holy land of Marijoa. The crime is extremely serious. No matter life or death, 50 billion Baileys
Principal offender: The leader of the Dragon Revolutionary Army attacked Marijoa, a heinous crime, regardless of life or death, 50 billion Baileys
Main culprit: Fisher Tiger, the leader of the fishmen, attacked Marijoa, a heinous crime, regardless of life or death, 10 billion berries
The bounties of the other accomplices, Bartholomew Kuma, Ambrio Ivankov, Jinbe, and Nico Robin, have all increased significantly.
Unlike the original novel, where Tiger liberated the slaves alone, this time they attacked Marijoa in an organized and planned way. What's more terrifying is that this is a thinking army. The World Government is very, very wary of these people.
Different forces have different responses to this major event.
The ordinary pirates in the New World didn't care, and those big forces who knew the strength of the World Government were somewhat silent and temporarily slowed down their pace. At this time, the World Government had lost face, and in order to restore its reputation, it might choose a well-known force to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys and revive its momentum.
Let alone the furious Steel Bone Sora in the World Government Headquarters, the atmosphere in the meeting room of the Navy Headquarters was very solemn. The table was piled with numerous leaflets that Kuma had sent to Marin.
"Defeat the Celestial Dragons and free the slaves!"
"There is no creator in the world. Smash all exploiting classes!"
"The justice of the world government is not the justice of the world!"
Looking at these leaflets, Zhan Guo felt overwhelmed.
He sighed and looked at Zefa opposite him, his head was even bigger. He didn't believe that Zefa had nothing to do with this matter. Zefa almost said that he had a problem before the fight, but it was a pity that he didn't think deeply about this sentence at that time. When the news of Marijoa reached him, it was already over.
What could he do? He could only pretend he didn't know. Besides, it was good that he wasn't at the headquarters at that time. It would be a good thing if someone taught the Celestial Dragons a lesson, so that these bubble-headed people wouldn't make trouble.
But the leaflets were too much, openly attacking the legitimacy of the World Government. This was absolutely not allowed, and any behavior that disrupted order was intolerable to the Warring States.
Immediately order all headquarters navies to collect these leaflets and destroy them on the spot. The garrison navies in the Sabaody Archipelago also carry out the same order. The World Government can handle it on its own.
Zefa was in a complicated mood at this time. He should be regarded as an accomplice who helped Noah and his gang, and he was a key accomplice. The transfer of the Admiral of the Navy left the Navy leaderless and unable to deal with emergencies. But after seeing the damage report of Marijoa, he felt that he had done nothing wrong. So many slaves were tortured there, and his justice would not allow it. He was conflicted again. He must give Noah a good beating the next time they met.
Akainu just... lowered the brim of his hat, indicating that he didn't want to talk and only wanted to kill people.
Aokiji, who rushed back, was in a good mood. Although Noah and Robin had done such a great thing, could it be considered a bad thing to hurt the Celestial Dragons? Could it be considered unjust to liberate slaves? He still cared about these two survivors of O'Hara. If they hadn't rescued people in 1502, there would have been no Marijoa incident.
The movie star Kizaru... doesn't say anything. This atmosphere is not suitable for using Yin and Yang language, or he will be assigned to go on a mission to hunt down criminals.
Garp...is still on his way back from the East China Sea.
The Navy meeting room was peaceful and quiet.
Chapter 54 A new journey
At the beginning of the year 1509 in the Haiyuan calendar, a new chapter began with the Marijoa incident.
