#341 - Chapter 341: The shock caused by the Mary Geoise incident

Meanwhile, at the Marine Headquarters, the senior officers were plunged into silence upon receiving this news.

The atmosphere in the office was as heavy as lead, as if even the air had become difficult to breathe.

Fleet Admiral Sengoku clenched the intelligence report in his hand, his brow deeply furrowed, his mind churning with countless thoughts.

This sudden change of events completely disrupted the already tense situation.

The G5 branch had just suffered attacks from two major pirate groups, and now Mariejois was attacked, which would have a huge impact on the credibility of the World Government.

"This… how is this possible?"

Sengoku slammed his fist heavily on the table, causing the entire table to tremble violently, and even the teacups on it made a series of clinking sounds.

This news clearly made even the Marine Marshal, who was accustomed to seeing great storms, feel unbelievable.

"Whether it's the Five Elders or the God's Knights, they have all been forced to this point?"

Tsuru analyzed calmly, but a monstrous wave was also set off in her heart.

Where did such terrifying power come from?

Who dares to challenge the authority of the entire World Government?

Her thoughts raced, but every detail of this news made her heart heavier and heavier.

This attack is not just a challenge to Mariejois, but a subversion of the entire world order.

If the World Government does not suppress disharmonious voices with strong measures during this period, the consequences will be unimaginable.

In this sea that has instantly fallen into unprecedented chaos and panic, everyone understands that a storm is coming.

And who is that mysterious person?

And why did he choose this moment to launch such a shocking attack on Mariejois?

These questions will become questions in everyone's mind next.

For the Navy, how to deal with this sudden upheaval will become the biggest test in the future, because the Navy is a knife in the hands of the World Government, and it will definitely let the Navy take action at that time.

More importantly, after this knife, the world may never return to peace.

......

Inside Pangaea Castle in Mariejois, chaos reigned.

The Celestial Dragons' faces were full of panic and fear, and the arrogance of their former high position had been completely shattered.

Pangaea Castle, the building that symbolized their supreme status, was split in half earlier, and the Celestial Dragons could no longer maintain their usual composure.

The air was filled with a strong smell of dust and broken buildings, mixed with the smell of blood, making it suffocating.

The ground was covered with shattered stones and collapsed building wreckage, and many Celestial Dragons were still pressed under the ruins, groaning weakly.

Those Celestial Dragons who were usually high above can only survive in the ruins at this moment, and their guards are running around, trying to rescue more people from the wreckage.

A guard ran around anxiously, trying to do more in this ruin to reduce the Celestial Dragons' dissatisfaction with him.

They are all guards, and they have not fulfilled their due responsibilities. Doing more now may reduce the punishment they receive during the trial.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and shuttled through the broken walls, his mind in chaos.

The scene in front of him was like the end of the world, and he never thought that such a disaster would befall these arrogant Celestial Dragons.

"Has the reordered Den Den Mushi not arrived yet?"

A voice suddenly came from behind him, cold and unquestionable.

It was a member of the God's Knights, with a cold face and eyes full of pressure.

His figure was like a cold sword, piercing through the surrounding chaos and making everyone feel an invisible oppression.

The guard shuddered violently and straightened his body almost instinctively.

"It's already on its way, it should be here soon."

His voice trembled slightly, as if he was afraid that not answering quickly enough would bring greater anger.

"Waste! All waste!!"

The member of the God's Knights was furious, with a hint of undisguised anxiety and anger flashing in his eyes.

They were supposed to be the last barrier for these Celestial Dragons, but now, Pangaea Castle was split in half, all communication equipment was destroyed by that terrifying Haki, and even the only Den Den Mushi that could contact the outside world died in an instant.

Now, their connection with the outside world is completely cut off, as if the entire Holy Land is isolated in this ruined wreckage.

"Relying solely on the guards of the Holy Land, nothing can be done."

He gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice, his heart full of powerlessness.

Everything in front of him made him realize how fragile the defense of the Holy Land was in front of that mysterious person.

Now they can only wait passively, waiting for the new Den Den Mushi to arrive, waiting for outside assistance to arrive.

But deep down, a chill was spreading.

That slash of Haki almost seemed to split the entire sky, a power they had never seen before.

Even they, these elites among the Celestial Dragons, felt a deep sense of powerlessness and fear at this moment.

Pangaea Castle, this holy land that originally symbolized power and majesty, has now become a symbol of fear and despair.

The Celestial Dragons' wailing, the guards' panic, the God's Knights' anger and helplessness, all of this intertwined into a tragic elegy on this ruin.

......

In stark contrast to the sorrow of Mariejois, people all over the world who received the news of the Celestial Dragons' attack almost fell into a sea of ecstasy.

For those who had been bullied by the Celestial Dragons or had their relatives taken away, this news was like a bolt from the blue, dispelling the haze in their hearts for many years.

A thin old man stood on the street, his whole body stiffened when he heard the news, and then a long-lost brilliance appeared in his eyes.

He said in a trembling voice: "I knew it, these beasts would be punished sooner or later!"

Tears began to slide silently down his wrinkled face, tears of grief and relief.

Beside him, a middle-aged man clenched his fists, trembling all over with excitement.

His voice was hoarse, but it was filled with endless joy and angry pleasure intertwined: "Great! Great!!!"

The anger and pain suppressed in his heart were finally released at this moment, as if the stone that had been piled up in his chest for many years had been torn open, and his breathing became much smoother.

All over the world.

A woman who had lost her family for resisting the Celestial Dragons suddenly knelt on the ground after hearing the news.

She cried out in pain, tears wetting her rough hands. Her crying was mixed with laughter: "I don't know how many of those beasts died, it would be good if they all died..."

Her voice was full of hope, as if this attack could avenge her tragically dead relatives.

A group of young people gathered on the street corner, their faces filled with ecstasy.

"I hope that mysterious person escapes successfully!"

"Thank him for everything he has done!!"

At this moment, the mysterious person was regarded as a savior by them, bringing them the justice they had dreamed of.

The whole world seemed to be caught in a wave of revelry.

Those who had suffered cruel oppression from the Celestial Dragons finally saw retribution fall on those high-ranking Celestial Dragons.

The streets and alleys were filled with cheers and tears, and the hatred and anger that had been accumulated in these people's hearts for a long time finally subsided briefly at this moment.

They no longer felt helpless, and a long-lost hope rose in their hearts, as if they saw a glimmer of light in the darkness, and that light was brought by the mysterious person.

For these people, this moment of ecstasy is not only a celebration of the destruction of the Celestial Dragons, but also a deep desire for justice and freedom in their hearts.

In this world, those who have been deprived of everything finally have a chance to fight back, and they will hold on to this hope and never let go easily.

A large number of organizations opposing the World Government have quietly emerged.
