Rayleigh did not want anyone here to insult His Majesty Ezekiel out of ignorance.
At this moment, Fujitora, standing to the side, gripped the hilt of his sword. Ever since he set foot on the island, he remained vigilant, sensing that someone on the island was constantly watching them.
Ezekiel approached the mirror, reached into it, and quickly pulled out a large box. He slowly opened the box and placed it in front of McKinley.
The box was filled with Belli.
There are four million Belli here.
McKinley ordered his men to come over and take the money, then handed the "guests" four passes. Now, since the money had been given, they were no longer criminals. McKinley secretly sighed with relief and smiled:
Welcome to Sky Island.
But in the next moment, his face froze when he saw the "guests" turn and head straight towards where the holy land was.
Wait, wait! There exists land here that no one is allowed to step on without God's permission!
Conis even broke into a sweat and tried to stop them:
This island... the land that no one is allowed to tread on, it's the island of gods. You can see it up ahead. If you go there, you'll perish!
Oh? "—" Ezekiel asked indifferently, still marching confidently towards that patch of land. "Rayleigh, four hundred years ago, this land was located in the Grand Line and was part of the island of Jaya," Ezekiel told Rayleigh, trying to explain that this land could not belong to some god of Sky Island."I've heard about that before," Rayleigh nodded.
Somewhere in the Upper Yard, a man with a bare torso, drums on his back, and wearing a white headband was watching the events on the island with interest. In fact, he was most intrigued by how these people appeared so suddenly.
"Not heeding advice? Do you want to feel the wrath of god?! Fools! You will learn what divine greatness is!"
Time passed, and the distance grew smaller and smaller, and Will was nearly at the meeting point of the dirt and white clouds.
He stared at the ground.
"Many years ago, this was the land of the Grand Line."
"What a foolish guy, if he wishes to challenge the greatness of god!" McKinley, the Captain of the Berets, said with regret.
Conis tried to stop Ezekiel , but Pagaya grabbed her hand.
"My father, they will die!" she said.
Die? Pagaya remembered similar people who had been so powerful more than 20 years ago.
In front of everyone, Ezekiel finally stepped onto the land.
At that moment, a terrifying bolt of lightning fell from the sky and struck directly at Ezekiel , who had violated the taboo.
"Divine punishment!"
At the same time, Fujitora had already drawn his sword, crouched, and thrust it straight into the ground:
"Gravity Sword!"
An invisible, massive gravitational force acted on the lightning and directed it into the earth nearby, where it created a huge hole.
Ezekiel remained completely unharmed, standing with both feet on the ground. He looked up at the sky. Due to the strong wind caused by the explosion, his dark clothes and hair blew upward, but the smile at the corners of his mouth grew stronger. Then he slowly turned his head and asked Rayleigh:
"In that case, Alabasta has a reason to resist."
Rayleigh replied:
"Of course, the word is yours."
Rayleigh slowly drew his sword from his belt.
Fujitora smiled, drew his sword, and then stood behind Ezekiel .
Nami watched the scene unfold before her. Suppose that truly is a god, but how dare he attack Ezekiel without knowing who he is?! Ezekiel , Fujitora, plus Rayleigh - that's a force worthy of the Four Emperors!
Moreover, the "guests" have more in reserve. At this time, countless soldiers awaited orders in the Mirror World, ready to attack Sky Island at any moment.
This god has given Alabasta a perfect reason.
Enel was terrified; he felt that three extraordinarily strong figures had suddenly stepped onto the sacred land and, moreover, remained alive after his attack!
"Hey? God?" a voice rang in his ears.
An unprecedented feeling of panic and confusion rose in his heart. Could these people see him?! And they dared to speak with him! Are they able to use his Mantra?! Isn't that a divine power?!
Boom! Boom! Boom!—loud footsteps were heard.
At this time, soldiers in dark uniforms emerged quickly from the mirror that Conis had previously set up, led by a man with purple hair and an icy right hand. Accompanying him was a girl with a sword on her back and an elderly man smoking a cigar.
The word "Justice" was written in white on their clothing.
The number of people kept growing, and now the platoon of berets was trembling and shuddering. What kind of mirror is this?! Everyone looked at Conis in astonishment, who was bewildered; she truly had no idea!
Finally, a whole crowd gathered on the beach. It seemed there were at least a thousand people. But they weren't just any people. This was a real army. As it turns out, that man truly was the King!
The soldiers quickly lined up and followed the man with purple hair toward Ezekiel . As they approached, they simultaneously placed their right hands on their chests, and the man with purple hair shouted:
"Your Majesty! The Royal Fleet of Alabasta awaits your orders!"
Ezekiel smiled, raised his hands high, and the soldiers joyfully cheered, welcoming him:
"Alabasta! Alabasta! Alabasta!"
Enel was actually a bit panicked. He called for his four priests, but they were still far away. What should he do? How could they block divine retribution? It was impossible!
Another terrifying lightning strike roared, stronger than the first. This time, the target wasn't Will but the newly arrived soldiers.
Zephyr smirked, his left hand covered in Armament Haki, and his fist struck directly at the lightning in the sky.
Boom!
The lightning was torn apart and dispersed into the air.
His attack was blocked again!
Enel, using Mantra, caught a glimpse of Zephyr's somewhat intimidating look.
Who are these people, these monsters?!
Now Enel was truly panicked, not because someone blocked his attack, but because they did it so easily, and they have Mantra like him!
The Berets were trembling and speechless.
Conis beamed, regardless of who these guys were and where they came from, they actually managed to block divine retribution! Maybe these outsiders could put an end to Enel's terror!
Crack!
At this moment, the ground beneath Ezekiel soared into the sky, taking Fujitora and the others with him. Only the soldiers and Zephyr remained in place, as they had another task.
"They're flying!" Conis covered her mouth with her hand.
Fujitora carried them towards Enel.
"Although we are victims of the attack, we do not take him seriously yet," thought Nami. "He's just an idiot..."
