Chapter 158 Dilt, the Uncrowned King of the Sea!
Chapter 158 Dilt, the Uncrowned King of the Sea!
Before the darkness before dawn had completely faded, news birds, like petrels that had caught the scent of a storm, eagerly flapped their wings, carrying newspapers that were enough to overturn the world's understanding, and flew to every corner of the world.
As the first rays of sunlight fell upon the bars of Windmill Village, the coral jungles of Fishman Island, the sunflower fields of Dressrosa, and the cake castle of Whole Cake Island, even in the secluded Flower Capital of Wano Country, almost everyone who picked up a newspaper fell into a deathly silence, followed by an incredulous gasp and uproar!
Shocking Secret! Two of the Five Elders Have Fallen! Is There Still a "King of the Void Throne" Above the World Government?!
The Alabasta Holy Grail War spirals out of control! Heroic Spirits appear, the Age of Gods descends!
The existence of the King of the World revealed! Are the Five Elders merely spokespeople?!
The bolded and highlighted headline is shocking!
Morgans went all out this time, using every exaggerated word he could think of and vague but highly suggestive terms like "rumored," "possibly," and "suspected" to expose everything that had happened in the capital!
The whole world was shocked!
"Are you kidding me? Two of the Five Elders are dead?"
"Im, the King of the World? The Void Throne? What—what on earth is going on?!"
"The Heroic Spirits were able to kill two of the Five Elders; they're truly monstrous. And there were 14 of them! Has the war become this intense?"
Ordinary people felt bewildered and fearful; their understanding of world government was completely overturned.
The kings and nobles of various countries felt a chill to the bone. They vaguely knew some of the inside story, but they never thought the truth was so shocking, and they were even more terrified of the collapse of the order it represented.
The most intense reaction undoubtedly came from Baldigo, the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army on White Earth Island.
"King of the World—" Dragon looked at the newspaper, his eyes sharp as an eagle's, and slammed his fist on the table.
"So that's how it is! The root of all this isn't just the corruption of the Celestial Dragons, but the being sitting on the Empty Throne! Using the World Nobles as a shield, they've imposed oppression for eight hundred years!"
This news had a huge impact on the revolutionary army's strategy.
Their goal is no longer just to overthrow the Celestial Dragons' rule, but to confront the King hidden behind the World Government!
The task became significantly more difficult, but it also allowed more oppressed people to see the real enemy.
In contrast to the solemnity of the Revolutionary Army, countless pirates on the high seas, after a brief moment of shock, fell into a frenzied celebration!
"Whoosh! Two of the Five Elders are dead?! The World Government itself is in chaos!"
"Great opportunity! The Navy's admirals, fleet commanders, and elite troops must all be tied up in Alabasta!"
"Hahaha! And the Emperors of the Sea and the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Tom's territory is all mine now!"
"Brothers! Set sail! This is our time!"
Ambitious individuals, thugs, and scoundrels have astutely seized this once-in-a-lifetime power vacuum!
Without the support of top-tier combatants, the four seas instantly became a paradise for pirates to run rampant.
Like sharks that have smelled blood, they swarmed out and launched a frenzied attack on the poorly defended islands and shipping lanes!
The first and foremost obstacle is Fishman Island, the only way to the new world!
Countless coated pirate ships swarmed into the waters surrounding Fishman Island like locusts.
No longer content with simply passing through, they began to frantically attack mermaids and fish-men, plundering their treasures and capturing beautiful mermaids.
The Dragon Palace Kingdom's army was fighting on all sides, and King Neptune and his three princes fought hard, but the enemy was too numerous and too strong!
"Protect our compatriots! Fight to the death, never retreat!"
Jinbe roared, thankful that he hadn't responded to the World Government's warning, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to protect his homeland.
He knocked a pirate captain away with one palm strike, but immediately more pirate ships broke through the defenses and rushed towards the panicked mermaids with sinister smiles.
They screamed as they were dragged onto the stench-filled pirate ship, where soldiers and civilians alike cursed.
Similar tragedies have occurred on countless islands.
The slave auctions in the Sabaody Archipelago were expanded in a blatant manner.
Although Dressrosa has some defenses left by Doflamingo, without Doflamingo's combat power, their officers are in a precarious situation in dealing with the great pirates of the New World.
Even in Big Mom's Whole Cake Island and the outskirts of Kaido's Wano Country, more pirate crews have appeared to take advantage of the chaos!
These sea emperors were powerless to deal with it, as they had to mobilize almost their entire pirate crews, leaving only a few miscellaneous soldiers in their own territories!
The naval headquarters was in a state of chaos, and the officers left behind were exhausted and unable to protect all areas.
In the New World, an island that was once relatively happy, fear and chaos spread like a plague among the common people.
"Why isn't the navy here yet?!"
"Those damned pirates! Kill them all! Leave no one alive!"
"We need overwhelming power! We need absolute order to protect us!"
Extreme fear breeds extreme desire. On countless islands ravaged by chaos, a yearning for absolute order and iron-fisted suppression begins to quietly grow and spread in the hearts of the surviving people.
It was as if the world's sea level, amidst this pervasive negativity, had become even more oppressive, subtly rising—
A giant pirate warship was approaching in the distance, and more vicious creatures were eager to attack.
However, just as the chaos was about to spiral out of control and the pirates' arrogance reached its peak.
Suddenly, a gigantic, terrifying slash, wreathed in jet-black armor color, swept across the deep sea from a great distance, like a gaping maw splitting open the ocean!
boom!!!!
The pirate ship, along with several of its vassal ships, was instantly and silently split in two, then exploded and sank!
A deep, slightly impatient voice echoed in the deep sea.
"That guy Pendelt made me do this kind of chores of cleaning up the small fry as soon as he got back—well, whatever, it's good to stretch my muscles."
In the shadows, a colossal figure, as large as a demon god, slowly sheathed its sword.
When the crowd took one look, they were immediately horrified!
That person was none other than Douglas Bullet, a former member of the Roger Pirates known as the "Demon Descendant"!
With Dilt's intervention, he did not completely lose his way after Roger's death. Instead, he was recruited by Dilt and became one of the strongest fleet captains in the Dilt Pirates!
That's far from all.
The outer perimeter of Fishman Island.
A massive pirate ship was bombarding the Dragon Palace Kingdom's protective shield with cannon fire, and the captain laughed as he directed his men to prepare for a full-scale attack.
Jinbe was surrounded by a large number of pirates. His passport was about to be destroyed by the cannon fire, but he was powerless and could only shout!
"You bastards! Stop it right now!"
However, in One Piece, this sound becomes a source of joy for the characters.
Just as the captain ordered the cannons to continue firing, they suddenly felt that the already dark ocean behind them seemed even deeper, as if the ship was shrouded in a huge shadow.
The captain turned his head slightly, as if frozen in place. A sea king, as huge as a mountain, stared at him. And on the sea king's head stood a blue-scaled fishman holding a coral trident.
"Anyone who trespasses upon Captain Dilt's sanctuary shall die."
The fishman spoke coldly, and with a swing of his trident, a massive ocean current tore the pirate ship to pieces as if it were an obedient pet.
Jinbe saw that incredibly familiar figure with his own eyes! He had heard this guy's story since he was a child.
That guy is Nereus, the fleet commander of the Dilt Pirates, and a legendary warrior from Fishman Island!
Sabaody Archipelago, a lawless zone. A group of supernova pirates are besieging a bar, attempting to steal its treasure.
The bar owner and his family of three were trembling with fear, the parents desperately protecting their daughter.
Unexpectedly, the pirates weren't satisfied with just the treasure: "Give us that girl, and we'll leave! We should be able to sell her for a good price!"
Amidst the pirates' taunts and cheers.
Suddenly, countless pink cherry blossom petals appeared out of thin air, sweeping past like sharp blades!
Before the pirates even understood what was happening, their weapons shattered into pieces, their bodies were covered in countless tiny cuts, and they collapsed to the ground screaming in agony.
A figure dressed in flamboyant clothes and wearing a mask gracefully sheathed his sword and chuckled softly.
"Oh dear~ the air around Lord Dilt has been polluted by these scumbags. We need to clean it up properly."
The bar owner stood up, trembling. "Thank you, sir—may I ask your name?"
The woman chuckled softly: "It seems that after so many years of inactivity, the world has forgotten about us."
She snapped her fingers, and her cloak slid down.
"Sakura Dance, Matilda." She turned and left without looking back as soon as she finished speaking.
The boss was left standing there dumbfounded. Sakura Mai is the fleet captain of the Dilt Pirates.
The name Matilda sounds like—she was a genius female swordswoman who had been missing in the South China Sea for many years.
Port of Dressrosa.
The pirate fleet attempting a forced landing was suddenly met with a precise and devastating attack from the coastal defense batteries!
Every shell seemed to have eyes, landing precisely in the pirate ship's engine room or ammunition depot!
On the port watchtower, a tall, thin sniper with squinting eyes blew on the smoke nozzle of his sniper cannon.
"Wind speed, humidity, distance—perfect. Next."
Diamanti looked up and was also shocked. It was the fleet captain of the Dilt Pirates, Hawk Karl, the sniper king who was famous throughout the seas.
Some frozen island in the New World.
A group of vicious pirates were harassing the villagers when suddenly black snow began to fall from the sky.
A muscular, mixed-race man with arms like a giant strode through the snow, each step shaking the earth.
He didn't say anything, but simply clashed his fists together, and the resulting shockwave knocked all the pirates unconscious.
The captain of the Dilt Pirates, Shaking Mountain Schmid, possesses unparalleled superhuman strength.
And Illusory Serafina, the fleet captain who can bewitch people with music.
The mysterious healer, Heberlein, is a strategist fleet captain skilled in using poison and bizarre medical techniques.
Sakutetsu Shiro, from the mysterious Wano Country, is a powerful fleet captain with the ability to manipulate temperature.
Under the sway of the Dilt Pirates, these fleet captains, renowned throughout the world yet long dormant, are like sharp blades drawn from their sheaths.
At the same time, they responded to the call of their sole captain and launched a series of attacks around the world!
Wherever they went, the rampaging pirates melted away as quickly as ice and snow under the scorching sun!
The island's inhabitants, who had been plunged into despair, stared in disbelief at this sudden reversal.
Looking at the Heavenly Kingdom flag, which had not dominated the ocean for a long time but still represented supreme authority at sea, they cheered with relief and exclaimed in disbelief!
"It's the Dilt Pirates!"
"Oh my god! It's Barrett the Ghost! He's still alive!"
"Nereus, the Sea God! He's come to save our Fish-Man Island!"
"That uncrowned king has returned! Compared to the illusory world king, I'd rather acknowledge this guy as the true king of the sea!"
People finally remembered that above the Emperors of the Sea, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the Navy, and the World Government.
In this vast ocean, there exists an even more mysterious and powerful uncrowned king!
His calmness was not a sign of powerlessness, but simply a lack of concern.
When he truly begins to show his teeth, the whole world will remember who is the one who can truly establish order on this vast ocean!
Dilt didn't even need to show his face in person; his subordinates alone, with overwhelming force, began to suppress the pirate riot that was sweeping the world, bringing the out-of-control situation back under control!
The chaos in the world continues, but a force that maintains a unique order has already intervened forcefully.
