After the Roger Pirates secretly disbanded, the members of the pirate group disappeared without a trace overnight, and the navy searched for them but found no trace.
But no one would think they were dead!
How could these terrifying monsters who accompanied Roger through the new world and become the Pirate King die so easily?
But when they actually met Rayleigh, this living legend, they still couldn't contain the shock in their hearts.
and……
Why is he here?
What is the conspiracy between him and Whitebeard?
Suppressed by the terrifying overlord color fluctuations, the entire battlefield was oppressive and silent, and there was no sound.
The arrival of Rayleigh and the two unknown strong men left both the navy and the undead at a loss, not understanding his purpose.
But, it doesn’t include Lovett, it doesn’t include Crane.
"So that's it, it's them."
In the temporary command center behind the battlefield, He recovered from his astonishment and grinned at himself.
"I owe Roger another favor!"
Wow!
Covered by Lovett's terrifying murderous intent, the wooden sailboat ignored the army ahead and made its way to the front. The white-haired Rayleigh, wearing cropped trousers, clogs, and silver-rimmed glasses, put away the sail, raised his head and smiled.
"Hey, everyone, long time no see, how are you?"
"Asshole!!"
Akainu looked at him with gritted teeth: "Rayleigh, what do you want to do?!"
"To stop this fight, of course!"
In response, Rayleigh's smile faded and he looked over firmly.
"End this unnecessary dispute!"
"How about we ask you to just stop here for our sake?"
boom!!
The overlord's domineering energy surged again. With such a close explosion, one by one the navy and the undead fell to the ground. With Rayleigh as the center, a blank area suddenly appeared in the sea, and he was the only one who could stand in it.
"certainly!"
With a fierce and roaring look on his face, Rayleigh said softly.
"If anyone still wants to fight, we are always with you!"
Akainu looked ugly.
The navy alone is in a dead end now. If Rayleigh and the two unknown strong men are added to the mix, even he can't guarantee that he will survive.
Moreover, he is not the commander-in-chief and has no right to decide whether to take action against Rayleigh and others.
But that doesn't matter.
The attitude of the navy is insignificant. The person who can decide the direction of this war now is Lovett.
Reilly understood this too.
So after saying that, he looked straight towards the sky and looked at the black figure that exuded malice.
In response, Lovett was silent and then spoke.
"Why?"
The murderous intent was overwhelming, and the soul aura of the high-level archmage was on full fire. Even though he was just whispering, the ocean within a few kilometers could not stop trembling.
Terrible monster!
Under Rayleigh's slightly solemn gaze, Lovett continued: "While opening up the era of great pirates, we encouraged people to go to sea to pursue their dreams."
"While protecting the navy, they can continue to be enemies of the pirates."
"I really can't understand you, Roger Pirates."
"It's not much of a refuge."
Rayleigh smiled and shrugged: "My plan is not so much against you, but to stop Kaido."
"He is not the person the captain wants to wait for...and neither are you."
As soon as these words came out, countless people opened their eyes in horror.
Who does the captain want to wait for?
Isn’t that the “Pirate King” Roger!!
Rayleigh's visit today is actually related to One Piece?!
Hearing this, Lovett's eyes swept across the sea, and his tone was filled with a hint of surprise.
"I see, is this the reason?"
What reason?
Whitebeard's reason for taking action.
The reason why Reilly and others appeared.
The reason why Roger wants to usher in the great pirate era!
All the clues were connected in a few words, and a series of information instantly appeared in Lovett's mind, revealing the truth.
Whitebeard's reasons for taking action were very complicated.
Compassion for the common people, fear of forcing the government to use weapons that control the weather to destroy the world; Roger and him are both enemies and friends, and do not allow this pride to be tarnished.
But the real goal is to prevent Kaido from dominating the new world and becoming the Pirate King after joining forces with him to win this war!
He and Kaido are rivals. They are each other's stumbling blocks on the way to becoming the Pirate King. They can cause obstacles for each other. This reason is enough.
Rayleigh also came to prevent Kaido from becoming the Pirate King.
But unlike Whitebeard, the reason they took action was simply because the person Roger was waiting for was not him.
"I won't die."
Roger left these words before surrendering because he knew that even after his death, there would still be Rayleigh and others around.
His legacy will be remembered by these people and they will continue to wait for that person to appear.
And the reason why he wanted to use public executions to usher in the era of great pirates was not only to awaken people's ambitions to pursue their dreams and create obstacles for the world government.
The more important reason is to attract the destined person to embark on this path!
To complete everything he has not completed!
"We are here early."
This is Roger's deepest regret.
This was also the reason why he was willing to die.
Let this world turn upside down!
From youth to adulthood to old age, Roger's ambition has never changed. Since he came early, he left his hope to the future and was willing to die!
"but me……"
Lovett asked calmly: "Just blocking your way?"
Hearing these words, Reilly understood what Lovett had discovered.
However, considering that he had gone to Twin Capes before and learned that Kurokas's logbook was in his hands, considering the current situation, it would not be surprising that someone would see through it.
"I'm afraid that's right."
Reilly smiled bitterly.
Otherwise, he wouldn't want to face off against a tycoon like Lovett who is better than his predecessor.
after all……
"If you win this war and use naval prisoners to sign various unequal treaties with the World Government, it will be too difficult to stop you and Kaido."
"What?!!"
Akainu's eyes widened and he looked at them in disbelief.
Is this the other party’s true purpose?!
War is not the goal, it is just a means to achieve the goal!
Under the opponent's successive calculations, their defeat is inevitable. Once they fall into the hands of the Black Earl, the opponent can use them to make deals with the World Government.
By then, coupled with the undead nobles behind him, the Golden Emperor, a terrifying dark empire will have completely risen. Not to mention the world government, even the pirates will not be able to breathe!
Just thinking about it makes me breathless!
Chills ran down Akainu's spine at this moment.
The Black Earl is simply creepy!
fortunately!
Akainu clenched his fists.
This was shamefully stopped!
Noticing the murderous intent emanating from Akainu and the domineering aura of Whitebeard and the others, Lovett curled his lips.
"trouble!"
After finally beating up Garp and Aokiji, now three more crew members from One Piece have arrived, plus Whitebeard who is eyeing him after being plotted against him, and Akainu who is now obviously ready to disobey orders, the situation is quite unfavorable.
but.
boom!!!
Suddenly, roaring murderous intent descended on the sea. The expressions of Rayleigh and others changed, and their muscles tensed up.
The wings behind it swelled up in the wind, zooming in from three meters in the blink of an eye. The black karma fire roared like a wild horse, and a pair of sky-covering wings hundreds of meters long were outlined in the flames.
"Originally, this group of marines still had a chance to survive, Rayleigh."
Lovett said quietly: "After all, the interests after the war are the primary goal, and I still want to exchange them for my subordinates, even if there is a chance that they will not be needed."
"But now I have changed my mind."
"Since there is no use value, then..."
"Die all!"
Scarlet·Soul Eater·Corpse Explosion·Phantom!
Combination magic·serial corpse explosion!
Rayleigh's appearance to stop not only failed to save the navy, but accelerated their death!
