Capítulo 166: Chapter 165
In the video, a more infuriating incident occurred. The giant children saved by the Straw Hat Pirates began showing abnormal symptoms shortly after escaping from the laboratory.
They became aggressive and gradually lost their sanity.
Seeing them like this, people knew there was a problem with the drug. Just saving them wasn't enough; they needed to find an antidote.
So, Luffy and his crew prepared to go after Caesar.
Unexpectedly, Law took the initiative to approach them, proposing an alliance. He had a plan to take down one of the Four Emperors, but to do so, they needed to kidnap Caesar.
Since Luffy and his crew were planning to confront Caesar anyway, they formed an alliance.
Both sides split up, with Luffy and his crew going to kidnap Caesar directly, while Law and Chopper investigated a way to cure the giant children.
This scene was emotionally complex. No one had expected that the pirates, who had always been seen as ruthless, would perform such a good deed.
But considering Luffy was the grandson of Garp and Law wasn't originally a pirate, and he had a kind nature and wanted to be a dactor but was forced into extreme circumstances by this world... people couldn't help but sigh. This world wasn't just black and white.
There were good people among the pirates, and there were bad people in the Marines and the World Goverment.
If it weren't for the QnA live broadcast, they wouldn't have seen Luffy and his crew saving a country, saving the New World, and dealing with these children's affairs. They wouldn't have known about the World Government's crimes in destroying Flevance for money.
Sometimes, things weren't as simple as they imagined. If they didn't witness them with their own eyes, they wouldn't know what was good or bad, what was true or false.
They still knew too little about this world...
...
However, at this moment, the Law-Luffy Alliance was coincidentally heading toward a disastrous situation.
Luffy and Smoker were ambushed and defeated by Caesar's Gas-Gas Fruit power. Caesar then used the out-of-control children to attack Sanji and his group. Sanji couldn't fight back against the children, so they were all taken down.
Seeing this scene, people's anger towards Caesar, the scum, grew even more.
On the other side, Law, who went to the lab to investigate the antidote, encountered his one of his worst enemy, Vergo.
Previously, to gain Caesar's trust, Law handed his own heart over to him, and now his heart was in Vergo's hands. Law was captured on the spot.
Now, Luffy, Law, and Smoker were all captured.
At this moment, Caesar didn't rush to kill them; instead, he contacted the big shots of the New World's underground world, wanting to showcase a live broadcast to them.
And the content of the broadcast was his masterpiece, the Shinokuni. He wanted to use the Marines and pirates on the island as experimental subjects for this performance.
Caesar excitedly introduced his masterpiece to everyone.
Seeing Caesar's crazed expression and the terrifying poison weapons in his mouth, people couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. This guy was a lunatic, completely devoid of any moral bottom line. If they let him go on, he would cause even greater harm to the world.
And they finally witnessed the horror of Caesar's Shinokuni. In the video, a massive salamander monster ate the candy and immediately exploded, releasing toxic gas and dust that spread across the island like an avalanche.
In the blink of an eye, the areas on the island covered by the toxic gas turned completely white, and both the Marine and pirate forces that were enveloped by the poison gas and toxic dust turned into white statues, leaving behind an eerie silence.
People watched in horror. If Caesar spread this terrifying weapon, it could easily wipe out a country and leave no one alive if it fell into the wrong hands.
The NEO Marine all had solemn expressions. Such a weapon couldn't be left in the hands of lawless individuals; otherwise, trouble would follow. They had to capture this Caesar!
At the same time, Luffy, Law, and their crew were locked in a cage, suspended outside, and were to be used as sacrificial subjects for Caesar's performance. With the debut of the Shinokuni, it could kill two Supernovas and a Marine Vice-Admiral in one fell swoop. This was undoubtedly a grand achievement and was bound to create a sensation.
Just as the poisonous gas approached, Law quietly opened the chains and released the Straw Hat crew and Smoker, and they began to counterattack.
The battle started, and the Law-Luffy Alliance, along with Smoker and the Marine forces, temporarily formed an alliance to deal with Caesar first before anything else.
They ran towards the hidden laboratory where Caesar was.
However, on the way, they encountered enemies who came to stop them. Law and Smoker faced the Marine traitor Vergo, while Zoro and the others confronted one of Doflamingo Family's executives, Monet.
As for Luffy, he broke through various obstacles and found Caesar.
"Everyone was deceived into coming here. What the heck is this island?" Luffy asked.
Hearing Luffy's question, Caesar proudly told him about what he was doing there and even revealed that he was cooperating with Doflamingo to produce artificial Devil Fruits.
"... I heard that one of the Four Emperors is forming an army with hundreds of people who possess Zoan Devil Fruit abilities through the SMILE fruits. It's terrifying." Luffy looked at Caesar with disdain and said, "Do you understand what a big deal this is? If we hinder Doflamingo's business, we'll be targeted by many powerful figures. Once those big shots start to act, the world will change drastically. That's what Law wants. You idiots don't understand any of this."
Listening to Luffy's words, Caesar's backer, Doflamingo, saw Caesar's current appearance and covered his face!
Did this damned Caesar think he had lived long enough? How could he casually say such things?
And dragging him into it too?
Doflamingo really wanted to slap Caesar's face with a single blow and disassociate himself from this idiot teammate.
Although Doflamingo had extensive connections, he couldn't withstand Caesar's reckless behavior. If he angered everyone and the Five Elders came to punish him, he might not even be able to stay in Dressrosa anymore. This meant that everything he had worked for would be in vain.
Doflamingo thought about his own defeat at Luffy's hands. Right now, he felt like he was walking on thin ice. And here comes Caesar, who's adding more enemies to him.
Doflamingo's face was terribly dark. If it weren't for Caesar's involvement with SMILE fruits, he would've wanted to kill this idiotic teammate on the spot.
Meanwhile, people saw Caesar's arrogant behavior, thinking he had a powerful backer, and they couldn't help but wish they could punch him in the face.
However, just as they were thinking that, Luffy took action and punched Caesar directly in the face.
People all around the world couldn't help but cheer at this punch. This scum had been acting recklessly because he had Doflamingo, Kaido, and Big Mom as his backers. It was about time to beat him up and take down him and his backers to rid the world of these nuisances.
At this moment, regardless of whether they were civilians, Marines, or nobles, they were all on Luffy's side. Caesar's behavior had made him a public enemy, and everyone wished they could get rid of him as soon as possible.
Even Doflamingo felt somewhat pleased to see Caesar get punched.
Caesar looked at Luffy in disbelief. "Didn't you hear what I said? Donquixote Doflamingo has my back! He's connected to powerful people in the world! If you apologize now, I might forgive you. Just think about how many monsters you'll provoke by attacking me!"
But his answer came in the form of another heavy punch.
Seeing Caesar get sent flying, people felt a sense of satisfaction. This scum deserved to be beaten to death multiple times.
However, they weren't satisfied yet because the Caesar in the video was only hurt. In reality, he was probably still alive and well, possibly still researching Shinokuni and human gigantification. He needed to be stopped, and he had to pay the price for these mad experiments!
And then there were his backers: Doflamingo, Kaido, Big Mom... they should all be taken down!
Meanwhile, at another location, Zoro and Tashigi had already defeated Monet, an executive of the Doflamingo Family.
On the other side, Vergo and Smoker continued their fight with Law.
After a fierce battle, Smoker fell to the ground, leaving only Vergo and Law to continue fighting.
People who knew the history between these two fighters were extremely excited. In the past, Law's involvement with Vergo, the Marine traitor, led to the death of Rosinante, and he regretted it for the rest of his life.
Now, the two finally had a chance to confront each other. Could Law get his revenge in the end?!
Everyone watched the video with curiosity.
In front of the video, Sengoku was also very excited. This was probably the first time he ever cheered for a pirate. This traitor, who had caused the death of his son, was someone he wanted to make pay, even in the video.
Trafalgar D. Water Law! If you really want to avenge Rosinante, then defeat him!... Sengoku kept a close eye on the video, watching Law's every move.
