One Piece: Start as a mythical beast, practice to become stronger

On the night of Elbaf, a huge bonfire was lit in the palace square, and the flames illuminated the red faces of every giant warrior.

Their expressions were solemn, and their brows showed anger over the internal conflicts among the tribe, as well as worry about the future war situation.

Loki sat on the stone chair, as if he was carrying the weight of the entire mountain.

He glanced around the square and saw not passionate soldiers, but faces filled with anger and suspicion.

He knew that the rift in Elbaf was far from healed.

"My tribesmen."

Loki slowly stood up, his voice rolling across the square like thunder.

“I know you still have a lot of complaints against me.

But now, with external enemies at our doorstep, we cannot repeat the same mistakes.”

"Same old mistake?" An older giant snorted.

"Last time, it was because of our mistaken trust that the enemy succeeded! And now..."

He didn't finish his words, but the questioning tone made the atmosphere in the square suddenly tense.

"Enough!" Jin An's voice suddenly sounded, cold and steady, like a blade cutting through the chaotic air.

He stepped out of the shadows of the fire and looked directly at the older giant.

"You can argue if you want, but do it after your enemies are dead."

Jin An's tone was calm, but it made everyone feel an invisible oppression.

He glanced at the giant warriors on the field, and his tone of voice rose slightly.

“The World Government will not wait for you to split up before taking action. They will strike at the rift. If you can’t even see this, then this is the end of Elbaf.”

The square fell quiet. The giants talked in low voices, but mostly there was silence.

Jin'an's aura pressed down like a mountain, forcing them to face reality.

Loki took a deep breath and took over the conversation:

“I admit my mistakes, but now we have no way out.

Elbaf needs every warrior to unite, otherwise, both I and you will be destroyed together."

The older giant frowned and thought for a moment, then finally sighed:

"You are right, Loki. We cannot waste time on internal conflicts at this time. Let's put aside our grudges for now and deal with the external enemies first."

The other giants also nodded. Although they were still dissatisfied, they chose to remain silent.

......

Jin An stood by the campfire, his hands behind his back and his eyes deep.

He knew that these giants were not completely obedient, but were forced to compromise due to external pressure.

But this is enough. What he wants is never the loyalty of the giants, but their fighting power.

"One more ally."

Jin An said in a low voice, there was no joy in his words, only calm judgment.

His gaze passed over the tall giants and landed on Whitebeard, "I hope these allies will not let me down."

Whitebeard sat aside, holding a large barrel of wine, grinning:

"Gulalalala, don't worry. Although the giants are stubborn, they are definitely fierce in battle. Their fighting power is more reliable than most pirates."

The bonfire burned brighter, the flames flickering in the night breeze.

The giants began to discuss the next battle strategy, and their voices gradually changed from low to high.

Their morale is recovering step by step.

Tian Yueshi walked to Jin An and said softly:

"You're right, they put aside their differences for now. But what about later?"

A faint smile appeared on Jin An's lips:

"Later? Let's see how they perform first. If they can survive to the end, perhaps they will understand that true allies are never gained through trust, but proven through victory."

The bonfire crackled, sparks flew, and illuminated everyone's face.

The night wind blew, bringing with it the solemn atmosphere of the distant battlefield.

The New Navy, the Whitebeard Pirates, and the Giants, the three forces temporarily gather together to face the coming bloody storm together.

......

Inside the Elbaf Palace, the atmosphere was solemn and tense.

Jinan, Whitebeard, Loki and others sat around a huge round stone table. The map spread out on the table was covered with marks and annotations, symbolizing their gradual control over the battle situation.

However, the discussion was suddenly interrupted - a communications soldier from the new navy hurried over and handed over a newspaper with a nervous look.

"Big news."

Tian Yueshi said softly, taking the newspaper and handing it to Jin An.

Jinan opened the newspaper and saw a huge headline:

"The Five Elders have been replaced! The top brass of the World Government has been completely reorganized!"

His brows furrowed slightly and his eyes quickly scanned the text.

The newspaper recorded in detail the complete replacement of the Five Elder Stars and also mentioned that leaders of various countries were invited to attend the ceremony. A familiar name jumped into his eyes - Morgans.

"It turns out he was invited too."

Jin An chuckled and handed the newspaper to Whitebeard.

"It seems that the World Government does not intend to let this news remain buried. They even want to give this action a glamorous cover."

Whitebeard took the newspaper, glanced at it, and then smiled with interest:

"Gulala, a change? Interesting, it looks like Im has decided to abandon the original Five Elders."

Loki also came over, frowning:

"This is not just a change of personnel. The World Government invited member countries to watch the ceremony, clearly for the purpose of deterrence. They want the whole world to know that this time, the World Government is stronger than before."

"..."

The wind from Elbaf blew past, and the square outside the palace became empty and silent, as if even the sound of the wind had become exceptionally cold and solemn.

At this time, the giant warriors were gathered together, talking in low voices in twos and threes, but from time to time they would look up in the direction of the palace.

They knew that the group of people inside were deciding the future outcome of the war, and they would be the spearhead and shield in this battle.

"..."

At the same time, on Morgans's airship, the head of the big news agency was looking at the invitation in his hand with a frown.

His fingers tapped the table rhythmically, his eyes complicated.

"Watching the ceremony? Humph, it's really a big deal."

There was a hint of sarcasm in Morganse's tone, but his eyes could not hide his desire for information.

He turned to look at the assistant behind him, "Have you confirmed the authenticity of the invitation?"

The assistant nodded: "Confirmed, it was sent from the World Government."

Morgans pondered for a moment, and finally sighed:

“It seems that I have to go on this trip.

If I don’t go, I won’t be able to get first-hand information, but if I go…”

He looked out the window with deep eyes.

“It’s a big risk.”

The altitude of the airship began to descend, and he ordered his men to temporarily adjust the route and turn to the viewing location designated by the World Government.

At the invitation of the World Government, the heads of state of each member country arrived in Marijoa one after another.

The atmosphere in the square in front of Pangu City was solemn and dignified. The new Five Elders, wearing gold-studded uniforms, stood on a high platform, overlooking the many participants in the square.

Yim did not show up, but her will was everywhere.

The entire venue seemed to be shrouded in an invisible sense of oppression; even the air seemed extremely heavy.

Morgans stood in the crowd, looked up at the new Five Elders on the stage, a complicated look flashed in his eyes.

"I wonder how these new faces compare to the original five..."

He was thinking in his mind, while observing the reactions of the leaders of the surrounding countries with his peripheral vision.

As everyone watched the new Five Elders, Yimu's intentions were unfolding step by step - she used this change to make it known to the world:

Even if the old Five Elders are eliminated, the World Government will remain unshakable, and her power will further rise to its peak.

At this time, Jin An, who had returned to Elbaf, put the newspaper back on the table, his tone calm but full of coldness:

"Since Yimu is going to put on a big show, we should also add something to her script."

Whitebeard took a sip of wine and laughed heartily:

"Gulalalalalal, then let's do as she wishes and give the world more surprises!"

Loki nodded, his expression unusually firm:

"The giants will cooperate fully. Now is the time to prove our worth."

Tian Yueshi approached Jin An and asked softly:

"What should we do next?"

Jin An stood up, walked to the map, pointed in the direction of Mary Geoise, and spoke in a steady and cold voice:

"Attack Marijoa."

Everyone's eyes were instantly focused on him, and the air was filled with a solemn atmosphere.

This war has begun to shift from undercurrents to an open and decisive situation.
