Chapter 112
The scene fell into a deathly silence.
Several seconds passed before anyone reacted.
"Another... another Celestial Dragon has been killed..."
The Marines stared dumbfounded at the scene, their speech stuttering.
Rorschach’s actions and words had clearly shattered their worldview. It took them a mont to process it, but the act of killing a Celestial Dragon still jolted them awake.
"Big news! Notify the president imdiately!"
"With a world-shaking scoop like this, I’ll definitely make it to headquarters as chief editor!!"
The World Economic News Service mbers hiding in the shadows showed expressions of ecstacy. Their caras kept snapping photos of the scene.
Even though Rorschach’s declaration had shaken them, it didn’t stop them from instinctively pressing the shutter. Every image and word was recorded using visual Den Den Mushi and caras.
He was already fantasizing about the wealth and status that would co pouring in once this news was published.
The previously silent Kizaru suddenly moved. His figure shot rapidly toward Shalria.
"Hmph, don’t even think about it." Nami snorted and turned into lightning to intercept him.
Bang.
This ti, Kizaru used his full power. As fellow Logia users who both possessed Haki, Kizaru was clearly stronger.
With Kizaru prepared, after the collision Nami staggered slightly, allowing him to break through her defense.
After bypassing Nami, Kizaru’s speed didn’t decrease. At the sa ti, he fired a laser at Karina.
Caught off guard, Karina didn’t have ti to instantly deploy a barrier covering everyone. She could only form a small protective barrier in front of herself.
Bang.
The laser struck the barrier and exploded.
The girls nearby quickly jumped aside. Thick smoke billowed in front of Karina, blocking her vision.
Five ters. Four ters. Three ters.
Whoosh.
Rorschach’s figure appeared in front of him.
At this point, Rorschach’s speed had reached Grade S-, fully stepping into the world’s pinnacle level.
Rayleigh and Shanks could block Kizaru’s teleportation, so there was no reason he couldn’t do the sa.
Kizaru’s figure instantly stopped. He then delivered a high kick — Light Speed Kick — straight toward Rorschach’s head.
If this hit, even if Rorschach wouldn’t be injured, the impact would send him flying several thousand ters, allowing Kizaru to successfully rescue the last remaining Celestial Dragon.
The corners of Rorschach’s mouth curled slightly.
He had already perceived the trajectory of Kizaru’s attack. Rorschach used so techniques from Wing Chun.
Borrowing the montum of the Light Speed Kick, he grabbed Kizaru’s leg and used the force to swing the Admiral’s entire body in a circle before throwing him into the air.
Kizaru felt a massive force on his ankle. His whole body appeared in mid-air. The entire process took less than 0.5 seconds.
He imdiately turned into light and reford his golden human form on the ground.
"I won’t let you take this woman so easily. I haven’t tasted a Celestial Dragon yet. I was planning to take her back and train her into a dancer."
Rorschach said with a light laugh.
"What an annoying guy. You actually used my speed to add your own power and neutralize my attack. Impressive technique."
Kizaru’s eternally lazy face now showed a trace of impatience.
"But Rorschach, young man, you really are bold. Not only did you kill two Celestial Dragons, you even plan to turn a female Celestial Dragon into your dancer. Even the most vicious criminals in the world aren’t as ruthless as you." Kizaru continued.
"Hehe. Precisely because no one has done it before, it’s interesting. Turning a lofty Celestial Dragon into soone else’s plaything — nothing could be more entertaining."
"That’s why I say you’re a criminal even more vicious than Dragon," Kizaru said seriously.
Bru Bru Bru.
Shortly after he finished speaking, the sound of a Den Den Mushi ringing ca from Kizaru’s body.
Kizaru’s expression changed slightly. He took out a small Den Den Mushi from his coat. This one looked slightly different from ordinary ones.
After Kizaru picked up the call, an old man’s voice ca through.
"Kizaru, do not concern yourself with Shalria’s life. Focus entirely on arresting ’Golden Lion II’ Rorschach. If he tries to escape with Shalria, prioritize killing her."
The owner of this voice was one of the Five Elders, who held the highest authority in the World Governnt.
At this mont, CP agents they had planted on site were using visual Den Den Mushi to broadcast the scene live.
The Five Elders sat atop Holy Land Mary Geoise, watching the live feed.
The mont Rorschach declared he would take Shalria back as a slave, their expressions changed drastically.
They knew that if Rorschach actually did this, the World Governnt’s deterrence would suffer a massive blow.
This was even more terrifying than Rorschach killing Celestial Dragons.
If Rorschach publicly broadcast Shalria being turned into a lowly dancer for the whole world to see, not only the World Governnt but the entire Celestial Dragon race would lose all face.
People would realize that the lofty Celestial Dragons were no different from them, and "evil" would spread across the world.
Dragon only incited the people to rebel against the World Governnt, but Rorschach’s actions struck at the very foundation of the Celestial Dragons’ deterrence.
"Wh... What...?"
Shalria’s mouth hung open as she muttered in disbelief.
She... had been abandoned? As a Celestial Dragon, she had been abandoned by the Five Elders.
"What kind of joke is this?! I am a World Noble, a Celestial Dragon! Five Elders, you can’t just abandon like this!!"
Shalria scread in despair.
"Shalria, you currently represent the face of the entire Celestial Dragon race. If you are captured by this vicious pirate, the dignity of the Celestial Dragons will be damaged.
I hereby declare that your status as a Celestial Dragon has been stripped. From now on, you are no longer a Celestial Dragon."
The Five Elder’s voice, devoid of any emotion, ca through the Den Den Mushi.
"How can this be..."
Shalria collapsed to the ground in a daze. Her eyes were lifeless, her tears almost dried up, and she kept muttering to herself.
She never imagined that she had only co out for fun to attend an auction, only to have her family destroyed and her own Celestial Dragon status revoked.
The continuous blows today had exhausted her spirit. One shock after another had overwheld her mind.
"Kizaru, execute the order imdiately from now on." After the Five Elder’s words, the Den Den Mushi call ended.
"Understood." Kizaru said calmly to the already disconnected snail.
A flash of light crossed his sunglasses, hiding his eyes. His entire deanor had completely changed.
