Chapter 295 Redfield Trial, a Meeting of Powers

At this time, near the coast of Dressrosa, there was a roar of domineering aura, and the cold air froze the sea water. The large amount of cold air made the people of Dressrosa shiver uncontrollably.

The guards who were previously in charge of surveillance also stood at the port, looking at the battle in the distance.

"Is that the Navy?"

"It's the new navy. According to the Revolutionary Army, it's a navy that will truly protect the people."

"So the Government Affairs Office asked us to leave them alone because they have such power?"

"We are too weak..."

At this time, Likudord and several political officials also came to the dock.

Cyrus, the captain of the guard, stepped forward and stood behind several guards.

"According to the Navy's intelligence, the other party is a felon who escaped from Impel Down. In the past, he was able to roam the sea alone, and his innate observation Haki could even see through people's hearts."

Cyrus' words stunned several people.

Then he continued, "As soon as the other party broke the law, the liberated area teamed up with the intelligence agency to confirm his whereabouts."

"The reason why I didn't tell you is because the other party will see through your thoughts. In this case, even if the other party is executed, it will cause casualties to the people of Dressrosa."

After the words were spoken, several people understood.

Judging from the momentum of the battle on the sea just now, that guy is definitely not someone that Dressrosa can deal with on his own.

And if the navy launches a siege in the town, Dressrosa will probably be reduced to ruins in such a war.

……

At the same time, above the offshore ice.

The wings behind Jhin fluttered and the flames behind him were still burning.

But he could clearly feel that something was wrong with his body. It was an imperceptible accumulation of weakness caused by fierce fighting. As time went by, he finally realized that something was wrong.

Below the ice, Redfield inserted the paintbrush transformed by Padong into the lining, and looked at Jin with his umbrella stick on the ground.

"Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a tribe that lived on the Red Earth Continent. In the past, just the information about this tribe could be exchanged for 100 million berries from the World Government."

"Can the Lunaria people appear openly in this era?"

A figure slowly approached, wearing a cloak of justice, with a head full of white hair but exuding unparalleled majesty.

Cap laughed and said, "The vortex of the new era has begun to turn. Old things like you should lie in the coffin. In this liberated area, the rights of every race are the same. There is no distinction between high and low lives. This is the foundation of justice."

On the other side, Kuzan also occupied a position.

The three of them surrounded Redfield in the center.

Kuzan spread his hands, and cold air gathered in his hands: "You killed a scholar of the Revolutionary Army and killed five guards in Dressrosa. Redfield, you have violated the laws of the Liberated Zone, and no one can save you!"

After he finished speaking, Redfield laughed in a low voice.

His eyes also turned to Garp at this moment with a complicated expression.

"Yeah... the old days."

"Even a guy like Roger turned himself in and was executed. Shiki the Golden Lion cut off his legs to escape from prison. Whitebeard Newgate actually gave up the title of pirate..."

"We old guys are the remnants of the old times, but the dreams of the remnants should not be cut off just like that!"

"They gave up, but I...the Lone Red Redfield has not given up yet!"

"Now I have found a way to solve the trust problem. Now I... can definitely become the king! The king of this world!"

The moment he finished speaking, Cap was startled by the sight of Redfield looking up again.

"Younger?"

"Is it really the ability of the fruit?"

“It’s getting tricky…”

The three of them looked solemn, but the changes continued.

With Redfield as the center, extreme darkness enveloped the entire battlefield, and there was no light source.

"Shh!"

The sharp blade swept past, and Jhin swung his sword to block it.

But the next moment, the opponent disappeared again.

Immediately afterwards, Kuzan was shattered by a knife, and the entity was caught under the shattered ice.

A tiny wound appeared, but blood seemed to flow out uncontrollably and disappeared into the darkness.

"Click..."

The cold air condensed and Kuzan froze the wound directly.

"Hehe... Old man, in this world, only domineering power can override everything!"

Garp threw a punch, shattering the red slash, and then his whole body burst into a strong domineering color.

"Ability is only auxiliary, even if it is a power like Whitebeard that can destroy the world!"

For a moment, thunder exploded around Garp, and after he jumped up, he was as dazzling as light.

When the voice reached Jhin, he also understood.

A long time ago, Kaido said the same thing: Only domineering is above everything.

Even Kaido, who once possessed the ability of the mythical beast Blue Dragon Fruit, agreed with this statement.

At this point he had to admit that a veteran was a veteran, and his ability to adapt to changing circumstances on the battlefield and his decades of combat experience were beyond his reach.

"boom!"

The same red thunder exploded in the darkness, the flames behind the Lunalia tribe burned more fiercely, and the domineering color filled the entire space for a moment.

Fist bones. Conflict!

Guard the Fire Dragon Emperor!
The two top fighters with the demeanor of a king, erupted with their domineering aura and shook the surrounding darkness.

"boom!"

A crisp sound was heard, followed by a sudden shattering.

Even if one is a person with special abilities, their abilities will be restrained by the domineering aura.

But after the darkness was broken, what Garp and others saw was the scene of the Battle of Marineford half a year ago.

The same ice layer, Marinford turned into ruins, and... the Five Elders and the Knights of God.

With this lineup before, Cap would have already called for support.

But now... the gap between the counterfeit and the original is too big.

However, just as Garp was about to punch them one by one, enjoying the pleasure of beating up the Five Elders and the Knights of God again...

"I had forgotten about you."

Kevin slowly walked towards the illusion of the war at the top.

The huge Feng Xi rushed forward, but was knocked to the ground by Kevin's punch.

Izuma Tenma's flame beams shot out from the sky, but they failed to hit the target at all.

Instead, after the thunder exploded, a leaf fell from the air.

"Your cognition, your physique, and your domineering aura cannot truly replicate the power of the Five Elders and the Knights of God."

"The ability of the Mythical Beast Species, the Dog-Dog Fruit, and the raccoon form is good for use as an aid, but the domineering power awakened by will cannot be transformed by leaves."

Kevin said as he walked towards the other side.

At this moment, the domineering aura condensed into thunder like the power of heaven, and intertwined to go towards the counterfeit drawn by the other party.

"boom!"

The ice beneath his feet cracked, unable to withstand the substantial pressure of the domineering aura, and broke into pieces inch by inch.

"Boom bang bang..."

What followed was a series of smoke explosions, and the entire imagined war at the top collapsed in just a moment.

On the ice, Kevin looked at Redfield in front of him and said, "It's been almost thirty years... I don't remember a lot of things very clearly, so I missed your abilities."

Redfield's eyes were solemn, and he held the umbrella stick tightly in his hand, ready to attack at any time.

However, Kevin didn't take it seriously: "Don't be too nervous... because there's a high probability that you won't live to see this time tomorrow."

Redfield was furious: "Just because of those ordinary people?"

Kevin shook his head slightly. "Kara is from O'Hara. He was one of the earliest revolutionary soldiers. He dedicated his entire life to the revolution. Before he left this time, he still wanted to enlighten more people and awaken their will."

"He said goodbye to his wife and children in Wano Country, and planned to reunite with his family after settling down... but you killed him."

"I don't know the Dressrosa guards, but they protected this country, and they were killed because of what you took for granted."

"According to your logic, you can do whatever you want because you are powerful. Because of your power, you can decide their life and death."

"Now that I am stronger than you, can I decide your fate at will?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kevin had already come behind him.

Under the Observation Killing, his future and his heart were locked. Even Redfield's innate Observation Haki could only sense it for a moment.

"boom!"

The umbrella stick collided with the long sword.

The impact caused the ice to crack again, but Redfield could see that the other party was still relaxed, but he felt the huge power coming from the long sword.

The next moment, a flash of black flame appeared.

His heart seemed to stop for a moment, and the feeling of disparity between soul and body made him lose consciousness in that moment.

"Click."

He was locked up with seastone handcuffs and a long knife was pressed under his neck.

Kevin said, "Now, you are even more pathetic."

The moment the seastone lock was on, the power of the mythical beast vampire form faded, and Redfield returned to his previous old appearance.

"Giggle..."

Amidst the shrill laughter, Redfield raised his head slightly and looked at Kevin: "To be as powerful as you are, your heart must be terribly dirty, right?"

"Man in cloak...what is your desire? To overthrow the world government and become the new god? Or to be the initiator of a new era and enjoy the worship of the world?" Kevin did not avoid his gaze: "No, I just want this world to look like the light I see. Because the darkness makes it impossible for me to adapt."

"There will be no more gods in this world. Any existence that claims to be a god will be drowned by the anger of the people. My goal is to enlighten people's minds, let them learn to think, and awaken their own will."

At this time, the paintbrush lining Redfield fell off, and a little civet cat landed on the ground, trembling and standing in front of it, facing Kevin and others.

"Don't hurt the boss!"

Kuzan, who had just come over, was a little confused: "So it's two abilities? Were those fakes just now made by this little thing?"

Jin frowned. "The raccoon form... can actually replicate so many different abilities. It's incredible."

Garp came over and patted Kuzan: "Not that strong. The person created by the paintbrush is ultimately based on the person himself, just like the fake Mr. Yixiao can't drop meteorites, and there is also the power of the big wild boar of the Five Elders..."

"It's just because I peeked into the memory of the war on the top. That kind of recoil force and domineering power cannot be replicated."

"And if it weren't for Redfield's special observation Haki, the effect of this brush would be greatly reduced."

At this time, Kevin reached out and grabbed Padong.

During the process, pieces of deformed leaves were thrown out, and the things that turned out were all kinds of strange, but they were all turned into smoke by a slap.

Without the basic skills to apply, you are just like a rootless duckweed.

Holding Padong, Kevin held down Redfield who was trying to stand up, and looked at Cap and others.

"We still need to communicate with Dressrosa to avoid misunderstandings from the Guards. Also, before the public trial, I have some use for this guy."

Garp replied: "Understood, the Navy will handle the follow-up communication."

……

One day later, at the Revolutionary Army Headquarters.

At this time, Redfield had been deprived of his fruit ability, and the same was true for the little raccoon cat Padon.

After the public trial, this result was not surprising.

Even that raccoon cat has no immunity under the law just because of its cute appearance.

The ability of the fruit in the form of a raccoon can play a big role in the hands of a strong person, and there are only a handful of people in the Revolutionary Army who have the ability to defeat their opponents with the domineering Haki.

In this situation, if one's values ​​follow one's senses, the seeds of hatred that have already been sown will grow and may become a big problem in the future.

Moreover, the initial version of the law has just been established. Not to mention a little raccoon cat, even Chopper, who is still in the Drum Kingdom, will not escape sanctions.

Sky Island Headquarters Conference Room.

Kevin, who had been waiting for a long time, finally saw Vegapunk coming in, holding two devil fruits in his hands.

"Sir, the results are out."

Kevin looked at Vegapunk, waiting for his follow-up.

"The legend of vampires is also recorded in O'Hara's documents. It is precisely because of this legend-like story that the ability of this fruit was formed."

"And according to the characteristics of vampires and the research on bloodline factors, vampires can indeed stay young and not age."

"But... this immortality comes at a price."

Kevin exhaled, "Bloodsucking?"

Vegapunk nodded: "Only by sucking blood can we maintain the characteristics of eternal youth, and this characteristic is also mature."

"Sucking blood to gain the lifespan of an opponent is a kind of ability in itself. But blood acquisition does not cause the opponent to age permanently. Naturally, immortality will not be permanent either."

"This is also the reason why Redfield was still an old man in Dressrosa after obtaining this fruit. The blood of the five guards was stored by it for use in battle."

Kevin nodded and said, "I see. It was just an accident, don't take it too seriously. If this fruit could make people immortal, it wouldn't have been obtained by Redfield not long ago."

At this point, Kevin looked at the other devil fruit.

"BiGMOM in the Wan Guo Sea has disappeared, and the thirty-five islands in the Wan Guo Sea are also being taken over by us. One of them has a superhuman ability that needs attention..."

"BiGMOM's 35th daughter, currently only seven years old, was kept by Katakuri and his men because she had never participated in any operations. She is a user of the Parahuman Memory Fruit, able to read memories."

Vegapunk: "In this case... the Pacifist or this raccoon fruit ability can be replicated."

"So, sir, you want to use this ability to assist the navy in managing public security issues?"

Kevin shook his head slightly: "Dreams, freedom, and privacy are sometimes interconnected. If a person does not have the slightest privacy, then there is no dream or freedom, which goes against the will of the people."

"And a person's memory is not necessarily just his or her own privacy. There are too many things involved, and we cannot make policy changes arbitrarily."

Kevin stood up and said, "If we don't do it right from the beginning, it will lay hidden dangers for the future."

"The ability of the Memory Fruit needs to be restrained. It can be used in wartime, but it must never be used for public security management."

Upon hearing this, Vegapunk seemed to be thinking about something.

He originally thought that if he could peek into all memories, then law and order management would become extremely simple.

Even if we are concerned about people's selfish desires, pacifists can still do it to ensure fairness and justice.

But the so-called privacy was something he had not expected.

Kevin then continued: "For public security management involving incidents involving devil fruit abilities, you can apply to use memory display. But this needs to be strictly controlled. I will discuss this with Dragon later."

"Also, how is the preparation of the defense circle going? The energy of the Mother Fire is huge, but if there are not enough of them, it will not be able to protect all the islands."

Vegapunk: "We have operational tests and data reports, and the production of the Mother Fire is also continuing. It will be easy once we overcome the difficulties of the project."

The two continued their discussion on the application of technology, including the rock salt crystallization project for making island clouds, which Kevin paid particular attention to.

……

At the same time, the world recruitment is still going on, but the three new generals have already been decided.

Devil Barrett, Green Bull, Kevin.

The selection of the three generals was sent to the world through the World Economic News the next day.

But soon, someone among the pirates recognized Barrett's identity.

For a moment, everyone was filled with disbelief at his identity as the admiral of the navy, and even wondered whether the World Government was really empty.

A former crew member of the Pirate King's ship, and a notorious pirate in the past, has now transformed himself into a new admiral of the navy after escaping from the sixth underground floor of Impel Down Castle.

After this news was published in the newspaper, people found it even more outrageous.

And among the powers in Marijoa, the five met again to discuss the growing problem of the revolutionary army.

"Kaido went to the Wan Guo Sea alone, and then the cloaked man appeared."

"The result is that BiGMOM is missing, and the so-called liberated area of ​​the Revolutionary Army has basically encompassed the entire New World."

"During the Nine Snake Island incident, it was clear that the Revolutionary Army had already networked that kind of protective shield. Using ancient weapons to destroy a country and set up a network is no longer feasible."

"So unless a decisive battle breaks out now, we can't effectively deter the revolutionary army?"

"Perhaps we can learn from the previous generation's...bait plan."

"It's impossible..."

Saint Vochuli raised his head slightly: "In fact, what was important that time was not the lives of 359 people. For the Revolutionary Army, the most important thing was the ideas they built in the hearts of those bugs."

"Since the Battle of Marineford, the ideas spread by the Revolutionary Army have convinced the bugs. Implementing the Bait Plan again will no longer be able to eradicate this idea."

At this point, Saint Vochuli looked at Saint Satan and asked, "In the North Sea, has the CP sent back any information?"

Satan Saint replied: "The people with the ability of the Operation Fruit have been active in the countries they have occupied. The doctors who survived in Frevans have been using their medical skills to deceive people."

Maz Saint: "Based on the O'Hara scholars, the Revolutionary Army knows a lot about what happened eight hundred years ago. That Trafalgar Law must have the mark of the cloaked man on him."

Peter Saint: "That means he can provide support at any time...so we must be sure before we can take action."

Vochuli-sei: "Have CP agents monitor continuously, and equip the action team with syringes for the Sleep-Sleep Fruit."

……

Among the powers that be, no one suggested taking direct action.

Because all the Five Elder Stars of the previous generation were killed, it means that the Cloaked Man has the power to kill all five of them completely.

The previous generation was replaced, and they don’t want to be replaced again in a short time like it happened eight hundred years ago.

……

North Sea, Kingdom of Jersey.

At this moment, Luo was fully armed and in a delivery room.

He stretched out his hand and activated his ability, and a halo enveloped the operating table.

The delicate manipulation made sweat break out on his forehead, and a minute later, a child was directly transferred out.

After leaving the operating room, the crying of the newborn made Luo smile, and it seemed that all his previous fatigue was swept away.

After dealing with a round of thanks, Luo already had three or four fruit baskets in his hands, which were filled with fruit as a thank you gift.

On the boat at the port, Luo, who had just returned, heard little Rami's call and smiled even more.

"Brother, brother!"

Little Rami waved from the deck.

Luo walked up with a fruit basket and ruffled his sister's hair: "Did you study hard today?"

Little Lamy nodded: "Yeah, the teacher said I'm very smart. But... I found that many of my friends in the class have a hard time learning."

Adrian on the side laughed and said, "The foundation is different now. The teachers can only teach from scratch now, and many children don't even know the characters yet."

After saying that, he looked at Luo's fruit basket and said, "Your name is now known all over the world... But this fruit basket is good, and I think it's thoughtful."

He picked up an apple and took a bite, and an envelope appeared in the fruit basket.

"Luo, you seem to be in trouble."

When Luo heard this, his heart tightened.

This is... a mistake.

"I'll give it back."

Having said that, Luo turned around, got off the boat, and headed straight for the hospital they had just been to.

At this time, several people in the dark were discussing whether to take action or not.
