One Piece: Divine Bird Phoenix

Powerful auras burst out from the bodies of the seven people, colliding violently with each other, setting off a huge storm on the red earth continent, squeezing the corpses on the ground aside.

Just when the few people were about to fight, a fiery red meteor streaked across the sky, successfully attracting everyone's attention.

However, the expressions of the seven people were completely different.

Yixiao and the four smiled, while the three people of Zhan Guo were like bereaved parents.

The fire became more and more intense, and the bright light reflected the earth, and the fiery red sank directly into the ground.

In the endless sea of ​​fire, the girl walked out, and the flames around her body made the other party look like a flame king.

"Marshal!"

"An!"

Looking around the ground with dried blood, the girl quickly guessed the whole story. It must be that the World Government took advantage of her hunting of Pit Saint to take action.

"I know, this matter has nothing to do with them."

With An's excuse, the hearts of the three people of Zhan Guo finally fell.

Facing four powerful men with similar strengths at the same time, even Garp and Sengoku, who had chased Roger and Whitebeard everywhere, could not help but feel nervous. Fortunately, An appeared in time and completely resolved the misunderstanding.

"Hahaha, that, An, Grandpa, the weather is so good today!!"

After seeing his beloved granddaughter again after two years, Garp became obviously flustered and spoke without thinking.

Looking at the old man talking nonsense in front of him, An's cold face gradually softened because of Whitebeard's death, and she suddenly felt a little guilty.

It seemed that no matter what happened, she, Dragon, and Ace were thinking about the problem from their own perspective, but never considered the feelings of this old man with gray hair.

"Okay, if Grandpa has anything to say, let's go home and talk!"

The word "Grandpa" made the uneasy Garp stand up immediately, with a simple smile on his face, standing there with his hands on his waist, ignoring the expressions of people around him looking at him like an idiot, and laughed unscrupulously.

Hahaha——!

Listening to Garp's shrill laughter, Zhan Guo was very upset. He kicked him hard and said angrily: "We should go back to the Navy Headquarters!!"

Even though he was kicked like a dog, Garp still laughed and said loudly: "Go back, where to go back, what Navy Headquarters, go back by yourself if you want to go back."

"I haven't taken a vacation for two years. I want to go home!"

No longer looking at his own "big live treasure", An walked step by step to the head of Whitebeard that rolled to the ground. The gentle color on his face disappeared and became gloomy enough to drip water.

Ignoring the blood on the head, his white jade-like hands gently picked it up, and with steady steps, he walked towards a figure who, even if he died, still turned his back to the Windmill Kingdom and used his life to protect his children.

Even though the front of the body was covered with countless scars, there was no sign of injury on the back.

Slowly put the head back on the smooth neck cut by the sharp blade, a circle of ice-blue flames ignited, firmly bonding the two together.

"As a father, how can I appear in front of my child in such an embarrassing manner."

After dealing with the corpse of Whitebeard, An looked at Zhan Guo who was about to leave alone, and a flame stretched out from under his feet to stop the other party's action.

"Grandpa Zhan Guo, don't leave, it's time to make a choice."

Looking at the high wall of evil flames blocking him in front of him, Zhan Guo didn't understand An's meaning, and turned around and asked, "What choice?"

An stood there, his black cloak fluttering without wind, and a terrifying aura like the deep and the moon burst out violently.

Everything in sight was hit by the powerful overlord color. The hard red soil continent continued to crack, and hideous cracks appeared, spreading rapidly like the roots of trees. The five rivers connecting the top of the mountain seemed to be oppressed by a huge force, and there were signs of backflow in an instant.

"The choice between justice and evil!"

"It's time to make up your mind whether to overthrow the World Government or become a claw and tooth of the Celestial Dragons."

Under the slap of the overlord color like the waves of the sea, Zhan Guo looked at An with some fear, and his heart was stirred up with waves that could not be calmed.

This domineering color has surpassed Roger, the Pirate King, and even stronger than Rocks, who almost became the King of the World.

Releasing his domineering color, like a warship struggling to move forward in a tsunami, Sengoku faced the storm and looked ahead, saying in a deep voice: "It's still early, the navy still needs time!"

"No need, there is no time, I have decided to officially launch a war against the World Government in a month!!"

This decision was like a bolt from the blue, instantly hitting everyone's heart, making everyone present change their faces, and the strong changes in their hearts could not be expressed in words at all.

"You are too anxious, An!"

"The strength of the World Government is far beyond your imagination. Not to mention other forces hidden in the dark, the Five Elders who rule the world alone have a powerful force that ordinary people can hardly reach."

It was only the scene that he saw next that made Sengoku understand why the other party was so anxious.

Behind An, a strong wind swept, and Dorag quietly appeared. The corpse in his hand made Zhan Guo feel like he was struck by lightning. The shocks one after another made the former admiral of the navy feel that this world seemed a bit absurd.

Not only Zhan Guo, but Yixiao and others also exuded a chill, and then their blood boiled. They had waited for this day for so long that they forgot the time.

"Three years, five years, eight years, or even longer!!"

Even Garp, who was always carefree and fearless, frowned and showed a thoughtful expression that was inconsistent with him.

"I have no choice. I don't have such a good opportunity every time!" An responded to the other party's question indifferently.

Helpless, Zhan Guo's face first showed a bitterness.

"Sure enough, you Monkey D family never play by the rules."

After a moment, Zhan Guo seemed to have made up his mind, and a firm look appeared on his hesitant face.

"But my time is running out. I also want to practice my justice in my lifetime!!"

Seeing the other party give a reply, the domineering color around him quickly returned to his body like a dragon returning to the sea.

A black cloak with the word "Zhu" was handed to the other party, and the girl's beautiful voice appeared with it.

"Welcome to join, Grandpa Zhan Guo."

...

Thousands of meters above the ground, there was nothing here, and the leisurely white clouds flowed under the blue sky, just like a quiet painting.

Suddenly, three black majestic ships pierced through the clouds, emitting terrifying light in the sun, breaking the tranquility here.

In the meeting room of the warship, An told several people the secret he got from Rocks, which made everyone tremble again.

Then the group began to analyze the strength of both sides based on the existing information, the possible unexpected factors, and the preparations that needed to be made before the war.

Halfway through the discussion, Zhan Guo suddenly raised a question that everyone ignored.

"What might the roar of the beasts in the war between the Giant Kingdom and the Celestial Dragons be? According to the information from Rocks, the emergence of devil fruits also gave rise to many new races, so did the Celestial Dragons get help from other races at the beginning?"

Zhan Guo's conjecture seemed to open a new door for everyone. The Giant Kingdom could get help from other races, so why couldn't the Celestial Dragons?

Just as everyone was preparing to analyze the possibility, the signalman on the warship suddenly rushed in.

"Report to the Marshal, an urgent request for help has been received!!"

"Right in front of the warship's route, a small town belonging to the kingdom was attacked by the great pirate, Douglas Barrett!"

At this point, the soldier hesitated.

"Just say it!" An frowned.

Feeling the Marshal's dissatisfaction, the soldier hurriedly said: "Barrett has spread the news that the Marshal must go there in person, otherwise he will kill all the residents on the island."
