Chapter 9: Chapter 9: The Celestial Dragons are under house arrest
As soon as the news of Sakazuki, Borsalino, and Kuzan's official promotion to Admirals was announced, the information of the three people immediately attracted everyone's attention. The titles of Akainu, Kizaru and Aokiji also spread at sea.
Under normal circumstances, if an ordinary person becomes an Admiral, he will not make too many waves or attract too much attention.
The problem is that after the events of Roger's execution and Shiki's arrest, the Navy is now in a 'hot spot' and every move it makes will be greatly amplified.
The most important thing is that all three of them are top-level logia-type devil fruit users. This is what surprises people. Furthermore, each of them measures around three meters. Anyone with a little brain can see that their qualifications are not trivial.
Especially the kings, of the countries under the World Government, can imagine that it is completely conceivable that, in the next few decades, the navy will have three admirals with some of the best lodge-type devil fruit abilities.
West Blue, Kingdom of Ilisia.
Two Battleship-class warships, much larger than ordinary navy warships, were escorting an extremely luxurious white ship that was slowly sailing towards the country's port. The white sails engraved with the World Government logo billowed in the sea breeze.
At this time, King Thalassa Lucas has ordered the evacuation of other ships throughout the port. They must receive the arrival of the nobles of the world with the cleanest and most orderly appearance.
At the same time, he himself led all the country's nobles to wait at the dock and watched in amazement as the ship docked.
Hundreds of the strongest and most capable soldiers looked forward and stood at their posts with solemn expressions, maintaining order within a radius of several hundred meters.
Not long after, as the luxury ship was docking, four long, wide wooden planks slid from the deck and were joined together.
Two people dressed in attendant uniforms immediately placed a soft, brightly colored red carpet on the wooden board, which connected to the red carpet at the feet of King Thalassa Lucas. Then a large number of warriors with spears and full-body plate armor divided into two teams and quickly disembarked, taking over the security work of the entire dock in an instant.
In this regard, neither King Thalassa Lucas nor any other aristocrats raised any objections, they only focused their attention on the most distinguished people in the group.
The Celestial Dragons!
I saw a yellow-haired man wearing a thick white protective suit adorned with medals and a transparent air bubble on his head, as well as a golden cape. He let the strong slave beneath him slowly carry him down the red carpet. He was followed by two members of the World Government dressed in black suits and leather boots.
"Hey, that person seems to be Captain Onnar, right?" An aristocrat's expression changed, and he whispered to the people around him.
"Yes, it's him, the 'Black Tiger' Onnar of the Tiger Claw Pirates!"
"He didn't break into the Grand Line after making a high-profile announcement two years ago. How could he become a slave?"
"I remember that his reward reached 43 million bellys." The aristocrats who recognized the identity of the slave whispered in surprise.
"Ahem!"
King Thalassa Lucas turned and looked at them with disgust, then straightened his clothes and walked over to greet them, bowing his head respectfully.
"I would like to welcome the supreme 'Descendant of the Creator', Saint Rosward, to the Kingdom of Ilisia, King Thalassa Lucas greets you!"
Saint Rosward sat cross-legged on Captain Onnar's back, looked at the surrounding environment and the aristocrats who came to greet him, and snorted: "He's just a king, when did low-level nobles have the right to stand in front of him?" the Celestial Dragons?"
"Ah, yes, yes, this is my mistake." Thalassa Lucas was stunned for a moment, but immediately reacted and quickly apologized, then turned around and shouted at the aristocrats. "What are you waiting for? Why don't you kneel and worship the great Saint Rosward?"
The aristocrats' faces froze. After all, they were also used to being arrogant in the country. At this moment, the old Duke, who was standing in front, knelt down without hesitation and rested his head on the soft red carpet.
As he took the lead, the others also responded, one after another, imitating the old duke and kneeling.
Seeing this scene, King Thalassa Lucas breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time gave a thumbs up to the old duke.
"Not bad."
Saint Rosward nodded very satisfied with the attitude of these nobles, and his favor for this kingdom has also increased a lot.
"Come on, I'm tired of sitting on this boat, let's eat something first."
"Yes, yes, I have ordered the best chefs in the country to be ready. Please come this way!"
King Thalassa Lucas turned to the side and extended his hand to signal Saint Rosward for him to go first. The latter was not polite and stepped on the back of Captain Onnar's head, and headed towards the palace on the island while dozens of nobles were kneeling on both sides.
[Poluporu, Poruporu]
But just when he reached the other end of the red carpet and was about to step on the clean and flat stone path, a call from a den den mushi was heard behind him, which made Saint Rosward subconsciously turn his head, because I knew that that den den mushi was from a direct line to the Holy Land Mary Geoise.
Sure enough, the World Government official to the right of him took out a small platinum-colored den den mushi from his jacket pocket, and when he took the receiver and plugged it in, the appearance of the microphone changed, and he began to speak. talk.
"The Five Elders ordered that all 'Celestial Dragons', who are outside the Holy Land, return immediately after receiving the notice."
"I repeat, The Five Elders ordered that all 'Celestial Dragons', who are outside the Holy Land, return immediately after receiving the notice."
Saint Rosward's face changed, and he became angry, he had arrived here less than two minutes ago, but when he was about to ask questions, the den den mushi had already closed his eyes.
For a time, the entire atmosphere became strange. Even King Thalassa Lucas was confused and didn't know what to say or what to do.
What is the situation?
"Saint Rosward, what do you think?" the Cipher Pol member holding the platinum den den mushi asked softly.
"Hiss-hoo-"
Saint Rosward hesitated for a moment with a pale face, then took a deep breath, jumped off the slave captain, and walked towards his luxurious ship.
"Came back!"
Although it is a Celestial Dragon, The Five Elders are also Celestial Dragons, but they are higher level Celestial Dragons. He has to obey such simple orders, but he still has to ask what he should ask after returning.
Suddenly, he stopped and said to the bewildered King Thalassa Lucas. "I gave you this slave. You are very good!"
"Uh, thank you, thank you, Saint Rosward!"
King Thalassa Lucas watched in amazement as Saint Rosward climbed back onto the ship. Five minutes later, even the Sacred Guard soldiers had evacuated. Ten minutes later, the luxury ship and the two warships of the Navy Headquarters set sail again.
One month after.
Sacred Land of Mary Geoise, Pangea Castle.
"Lord Imu, according to his oracle, all the Celestial Dragons have been ordered to return. In up to seven days, all the Celestial Dragons will gather at Mary Geoise." Imu nodded indifferently after hearing the report through the den den mushi.
"From now on, all Celestial Dragons are not allowed to leave the Gods' Domain without my permission; otherwise, their titles as world nobles will be directly revoked. They will no longer enjoy any privileges and will be imprisoned in the internal prison of Mary Geoise."
"Yes, we will carry out your orders."
