Pirates: Nine Tails bombards Mary Joya at the beginning

Sora said at the Navy Headquarters, "Anyway, you should try your best. If it doesn't work, wait until the Black Order arrives and let them negotiate."

"Well, we'll try." Crane nodded.

Then the phone communication ended, and He looked out the window. The streets where there were originally some people had now become extremely deserted.

The king notified all the citizens of the arrival of Aatrox through communication devices all over Alabasta, and organized a large number of troops to evacuate the civilians in the south. Some of them left Alabasta directly by boat, and some were The army and navy headed north with them.

The whole country is in chaos now, and the loneliness here is very abnormal.

The people didn't know if they could defeat Aatrox, not even themselves in fact.

Although it is said that we are completely prepared, does it really mean that we are completely prepared in this world?

What's more, even with all the preparations, Aatrox's power is still so disappointing.

Many of them have never faced Aatrox directly, because there are not many people who have faced Aatrox and survived. This makes many people have no intuitive impression of Aatrox's power. They just know that he is very powerful. powerful.

It is precisely because of this indirect impression that they will be divided into two factions. One faction believes that Aatrox is not that powerful at all, and the other faction believes that Aatrox is much stronger than the legend.

But now these people obviously want Aatrox to become stronger.

Even if Garp himself had faced the demon lord personally, it would be difficult to tell just how powerful he was.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, the people who faced Aatrox back then were him, Sengoku, Kill the Ring, and many people from the Roger Pirates. Such combat power is unprecedented, but I'm afraid it won't be as powerful as those gathered this time. How much lower are these people.

The only variables are Roger and Machima. Roger at that time was far less powerful than he is now, and Machima has always been very mysterious. She shocked everyone with her first attack at Jalzburg Junior High School. Who knows what will happen this time? What kind of power is shown.

"Let me go and communicate with Lord Byakuya Kuchiki." Kobra volunteered and said

In fact, Kobra didn't know that Aatrox was deliberately lured here by their plan. He just thought that Aatrox was going to Alabasta, and the navy just got the news in advance to stop him.

So he felt that he still had to make a contribution for Alabasta.

"I'll go in with you." Long said on the bed

"What are you trying to do?" Garp frowned and said, "Just stay here and it will be fine."

"No, I want to go." Long said stubbornly

In fact, he couldn't tell why he had to go. He probably just wanted to see clearly and write down the Kuchiki Byakuya who had severely injured him.

Or maybe you saw something in the pyramid before and want to see it more clearly?

He always felt that this incident was not that simple.

"As long as you don't enter the scope of the inverted pyramid, it doesn't count as a breach of contract." Kobra said, "But your injuries..."

"No problem." Long said softly, "As long as you can move, it's fine. I didn't go there for revenge."

"Okay..." Kobra nodded and said nothing more.

Garp looked at Long's stubborn look and didn't say anything. He didn't dissuade him. People in his family were like this anyway, and he was used to it.

What else can he do now with only one arm left?

All that's left is...

Are you capable of fighting Aatrox?

"I'll go to Santo River and wait for the Black Order and Ah Xing to arrive." He said to Garp

"Now I'm alone again." Garp said nonchalantly, "You go ahead, I'll just eat my donuts here and wait for your news."

Long stood up with some difficulty, and there was a sharp pain from the tearing wound, but he held it back with force.

Cobra looked at him a little worried, but the dragon said that there was nothing wrong, and in the end Cobra had no choice but to take him there.

After leaving the hotel where the boss had already left, the two came to the pyramid again. This huge pyramid was actually very strange because the door had disappeared.

When Long left, he couldn't see clearly because he was seriously injured, but when he came this time, he found that the door he entered before did not exist.

However, after Kobra walked over, a strange force was generated in front of the pyramid, like ripples on the water, and a door reappeared.

Can only Neferutari people open the pyramid door?

No wonder they felt comfortable building a town around the pyramid because no one else could enter.

Long thought to himself, and then followed Kobra into the pyramid again.

The pyramid is still the same as before, with darkness going up and light going down, but this time the dragon no longer wants to go down, because going down is within the scope of the 'Inverted Pyramid', and entering it will lead to the road to death. .

This time, he mainly wanted to observe the world under parallel vision. In fact, the center was empty because there was a spiral staircase leading downwards, but there was something like a bridge from the entrance to the other end of the door, and there were other things around it. Many pillars.

"what is this?"

He suddenly pointed at something and asked Kobra

Kobra followed his gaze and found that he was talking about the murals on the pyramid.

It is a mural that runs completely parallel to the two walls, surrounding the pyramid.

"This pyramid has three levels. The lower inverted pyramid leads to the underworld, the upper pyramid leads to heaven, and the center layer represents the human world."

"This is a symbolic thing. It does not mean that it really exists. At least there is definitely no heaven above." Kobra said with a smile.

However, Long stared at these murals and felt waves in his heart.

These murals, if viewed together, depict a world he had never imagined before.

In the beginning, it was a slave-like primitive world, and people did not have any freedom to contribute to the slave masters.

Then came the emergence of rough political power, people gradually put on the cloak of civilization, and slaves were disbanded, but they appeared in the world in a different form.

Although it was very dark, Long could not see clearly, but he could vaguely see that if these murals were connected together, they would be the advancement of civilization, and the oppressed subjects would change from slaves to farmers, then to workers, etc... …

And until the end, Long looked over and found that there was nothing.

He could vaguely see that it was a very close civilized society, but there was nothing there.

"What are you looking at?"

Suddenly, Byakuya Kuchiki appeared...
