Chapter 962 The Void Throne

...

Holy Land Marie Gioia

"Heh, don't they all call themselves martial gods? Could it be that this is all the strength they have?"

Loki, carrying his giant hammer, sneered with a mocking expression.

The Azure Dragon slowly descended to the ground, and Kaido transformed into a human-beast form more suited for battle, laughing loudly.

"Hurrah, the battle has only just begun. Show us what other tricks you have up your sleeve, Five Elders."

"Don't be careless, the captain has repeatedly warned us!"

Big Bear reminded him with a stern face.

"Whoo~"

As the wind blew away the smoke, the Five Elders, now in their monstrous forms, not only had their injuries fully healed, but their size had also expanded again, becoming several times larger than before! Their aura had also become even more dangerous.

"Hmph! You think you can defeat us with this level of skill? You're dreaming!"

The sandworm opened its huge mouth, and the sound it made was like the shrill wail of a ghost from hell, sending chills down one's spine.

"How dare these lowly scoundrels repeatedly disrespect the dignity of the Celestial Dragons! They deserve to die!"

The Fengxi, now as tall as a small mountain, roared angrily.

"In that case, let the people of the world see clearly what the consequences will be for challenging the World Government!"

Nasujiro's tone was icy, and white, frigid air emanated from his mouth as he spoke.

"Hehe, very good! Let's continue the battle! I'm far from satisfied!"

Loki covered his face and burst into laughter.

"Hmph! The giants are still as warlike as ever!"

Piet Saint sneered.

"It seems your father, Harald, didn't teach you properly!"

Loki's face was grim, and veins bulged on his forehead.

"Haven't you learned your lesson from history yet? You know, Harald once willingly broke off the two horns on his head that represented the warlike bloodline of the ancient giants, begging us to give him a chance to atone for the giants' sins! He was even willing to become a slave..."

"Shut up! Five Elders! You have no right to laugh at that man!"

Loki roared angrily.

"As a king, what's wrong with him wanting to seek peace for Elbaf?"

"Oh? So you agree with Harald's ideas?"

Satan Saint narrowed his eyes and stroked his beard with great interest.

"If that's the case, why rebel against the World Government?"

The five elders exchanged glances, and Pittor Saint continued.

"Loki, the Giant Prince, considering you were temporarily misled by these villains, we can now consider giving you and Elbaf a chance..."

"Hahaha, hahaha!"

Loki tilted his head back and laughed maniacally.

"Stop joking! Five Elders! I'm just saying that it's not wrong for the King of Elbaf to want to bring peace to Elbaf, but my father Harald was wrong to believe that you disgusting old bastards would keep your word!"

"Ungrateful wretch! The giants will never have a chance to atone for their sins!"

Seeing that Loki was not as easily fooled as Harald, the Five Elders sighed with regret.

"Atonation? Why should the giants atone to the world? It is you who should be the ones repenting to the world the most!"

Loki swung his giant hammer at the five-headed monster!

"I will take responsibility for sending you to hell! Five Elders!"

"Boom!"

The fierce battle continued.

...

alabaster

The square was crowded.

"Wow...that's amazing! Is this the fighting force that stands at the very top of the ocean?!"

The viewers in front of the screen stared wide-eyed and listened intently, afraid of missing any exciting moments or important information.

"Damn it, I can't even keep up with everything! This is countless times more intense than the Marineford War between the Whitebeard Pirates and the Marine Headquarters two years ago!"

"Go for it! Take them down!"

The drunkard, who had drunk some fake alcohol, shouted excitedly, but it was unclear which side he actually supported.

Princess Vivi's pupils trembled, and she unconsciously gripped her father's arm tighter and tighter.

"Don't be afraid, Vivi. As long as everyone in Alabasta is united, we will definitely overcome any difficulties!"

Cobra patted his daughter's hand and gently comforted her.

"Yes, yes! I know, thank you, Father."

Weiwei forced a somewhat unnatural smile, which barely calmed her down.

"Bang bang bang!"

Cobra secretly placed his hand on his chest, feeling the rapid, drum-like pounding of his heart. He had just spoken those words to himself.

"Zizzizi..."

Just then, the screen suddenly turned into a screen full of flashing black and white pixels, accompanied by a hissing sound of electricity as it flickered on and off.

"Hey! What's going on? Why is the video gone?"

"Damn it! Just when things were getting really exciting!"

"Is the video den Den Mushi broken? Does anyone know how to fix it? Please help me fix it quickly! Thank you!"

The scene erupted in uproar. Those who had their TV show abruptly interrupted felt as if ants were crawling all over their bodies.

"Do we have a spare video denial mushi, Bell?"

Weiwei asked anxiously.

"Ugh…"

Cobra sighed.

"It seems that the World Government has stopped it. Of course, with such dangerous content, how could the Five Elders allow Morgans to continue broadcasting it?"

"Damn it! How could this happen?"

Vivi clutched her skirt in disappointment.

"Um... don't worry, Vivi. This is just Father's guess. It's also possible that the Den Den Mushi is malfunctioning. So, please go and check it first, Bell."

To comfort her daughter, Cobra still held onto a sliver of hope.

"Yes, Your Majesty Cobra."

Just as Bell was about to step forward, the video Den Den Mushi suddenly returned to normal.

"Great! We can see the visuals again!"

"Wait a minute! This isn't the battle from before? Where am I now?"

"Damn it! Why did it suddenly switch to a different scene?"

"Ahhh! We want to see an exciting battle!"

The scene erupted into noise again.

"This...this is!!"

In the crowd, Cobra couldn't help but tremble. He stared in shock at the solemn and majestic hall and the throne sitting on the third tier of the platform in the very center! And on the walls on either side of the throne, there were two huge crosses symbolizing the World Government, solemn and majestic.

"Father...Father? Are you alright?"

Sensing her father's unusual behavior, Weiwei asked him with concern.

"Your Majesty Cobra!"

Bell and Jaka rushed forward to help him up, one on each side.

"I'm fine!"

Cobra gently pushed the two men's arms away, his eyes fixed on the scene, searching for more details that could corroborate his inner suspicions.

"Father, do you recognize this place in the picture?"

"Hmm! I didn't expect... to actually appear in a live stream..."

Kobra's gaze was grave, his forehead covered in cold sweat. He took a deep breath and slowly spoke.

"There's no mistake! That's the legendary—the Void Throne!!"
