Chapter 444: Set Sail! (Finale)

"What do you mean?" Rhodes sounded, growing uneasy.

"I see...... "The voice on the other end of the phone changed, and it was Dorag who took the phone, "No wonder the five old stars have never abolished that kind of high-flying Draconian...... Even if each of them has general-level combat power...... There's no way to compete with the monster in Mary Joa's underground ......"b1

"Dorag, what's going on over there?!" Rhodes almost shouted.

Dorag gasped violently: "The monster that surpassed the twenty kings of the world government eight hundred years ago...... Eight hundred years ago, it was this demon who created the Devil Fruit Tree and turned the world upside down, and now he has awakened. ”

"How are you doing?!" asked Rhodes.

"Having suffered heavy losses, we have now retreated to the outside of Mary Joy, and a decisive battle will soon be in place. Dorag said, "What about you guys, have you reached Ralph Drew?"

"Here we are, we already know all the secrets that the World Government has hidden from eight hundred years ago!" Rhodes said tightly, "The soul of the monster you are facing is the origin of the Devil Fruit Tree!"

"Is that so...... No wonder our fruit abilities can't hurt him...... It's as ridiculous as hitting himself with his own hand......" Dorag laughed wryly.

"If you say...... What about burning the Devil Fruit Tree?" Rhodes said coldly, "Originally, Ralph Drew was a city of the D-Clan, and the Devil Fruit Tree was not here. We've just discovered a huge Devil Fruit Tree planted in the center of Ralph Drew, and it seems that the monster has deliberately hidden it here. Hidden in a place where no one has set foot for 800 years, for what?"

"You mean, the Devil Fruit Tree is the body of that Holy King, and the Devil Fruit Tree is its weak point, so it went to great lengths to hide it. Once the Devil Fruit Tree is destroyed, the Holy King will also perish?" Dorag guessed Rhodes' idea.

Rhodes frowned and said in a deep voice, "It's just my conjecture, we can give it a try." But you also need to be aware of the consequences of defeat, which is that all of us lose our ability to bear fruit and will never be able to fight against it again. ”

"I don't know where that guy came from or why he walked around the world with the Devil Fruit on his body, but I don't think he had any good intentions, and now he has to give it a go and kill it with this only way to see a glimmer of hope!" Dorag hesitated for a moment, but finally made up his mind.

"Leave it to us!" Rhodes hung up.

"To ...... Destroy the Devil Fruit Tree?" Tyton asked.

Rhodes looked at Tyton, whose face was full of reluctance: "It's time to destroy this root of all evil." ”

"I'm in favor. Kidd, who is known to rely on fruit abilities in battle, was the first to approve of Rhodes' idea, "Since the appearance of the Devil Fruit eight hundred years ago, the world has not been at peace. All of us can easily become strong by eating the Devil Fruit, can we control this power under the enslavement of the devil...... The reason why that monster walked the Devil Fruit was because he wanted us to gradually rely on his power, right? When one day we lose the inheritance of physical skills and become a 'strong man' who can only use the ability of the fruit, that monster will be invincible. ”

"Give it back its powers, and use our own power to kill this guy from nowhere!" Bucky said.

Hawkins groaned: "I don't use fruit ability to divination, I'm just intuitive. Rhodes, you should be doing the right thing. ”

"It thought we would worry that destroying the Devil Fruit Tree would be destroying ourselves. Shanks gripped his sword, "But actually, the Devil Fruit doesn't do anything to us at all! Once the Devil Fruit Tree is destroyed, then it has nothing to fear!"

"No more nonsense!" Crocok Dahl and Emperor Burn looked at each other, "Let's go burn the tree!"

"Good!"

Everyone agreed to burn the Devil Fruit Tree.

Arriving at the center of the lake by boat, Rhodes took a deep breath with a torch in hand, and behind him was his crew and his friends.

He knew what his move meant.

From now on, there will be no more fruit in the world, and the things on which the capable people depend will disappear. Rhodes didn't know what the world would become because of the disappearance of the Devil Fruit, but he thought that it would be a much better situation than the current one!

"Goodbye!"

Rhodes sets the Devil Fruit Tree on fire.

As soon as the flames of the torch touched the Devil Fruit Tree, it began to spread rapidly, and in an instant, the towering tree was already engulfed in flames.

While burning, the world is also being turned upside down!

Whether it's a pirate who eats a Devil Fruit and feels invincible, a navy with limited talent who wants to rely on the fruit's abilities to make himself stronger and protect the world, or people who eat the fruit with various other ideas.

At the same time, their hearts were empty, and they felt that they had lost something.

……

Dorag, who was far away in Mary Joa, was also feeling the dissipation of his fruit power, but he did not give up in the slightest. In his view, the most important thing is to overthrow the rotten world government and establish a completely new regime.

"Aang!"

In Mary Joy's land, I don't know what kind of monster is wailing.

"What's going on?!" Ace, Luffy, Marco and the others said in unison.

They asked for two meanings, one was about their own situation, and the other was about the monster.

"The world is about to change dramatically. That's just what Dorag said.

……

Rhodes watched the Devil Fruit Tree turn to a charred trunk in a very short period of time, and exhaled a cloudy breath.

"Blue Blue Blue Blue Blue. ”

Dorag's phone called.

Rhodes silently picked up the phone, and the conversation between him and Dorag was very brief, after which the phone was hung up.

Everyone looked at Rhodes' back, and even their breathing became heavy.

"War ......," Rhodes said slowly, "it's over." ”

"Oh, it's finally over!" said Teton, who had been reluctant to give up on his fruit a while ago, and now began to laugh heartlessly.

"Ah, we won the bet. Shanks looked at Reilly and Bucky, and the three of them looked at each other and smiled.

Emperor Crocodile Byrin and Crocodall also showed a rare smile.

Rhodes sat in the boat, his chin propped up in one hand, and didn't say anything.

……

The year 1523 of the sea calendar is 1523

The world government completely collapsed, the army suffered a devastating blow, and the navy was led by Marshal Akainu, Admirals Yellow Ape, Fuji Tiger, and Green Bull, and was attached to the revolutionary army.

Dorag immediately began to quell the rebellions in various places, and quickly swept away the remnants with a ruthless and fierce style.

At this point, the revolutionary army established a new regime.

This is the end of the era of pirates.

……

Upside down the mountain.

"Ahhh!!!!!!!h

"Yes......" Rhodes stepped out of the cabin, followed by Nana.

"I didn't expect ALL BLUE to be at the top of Upside Down Mountain, a place where the four seas meet!Anyway, we came here three years ago! I was so careless at the time!" Sanji couldn't express his mood at the moment, and he could only keep exclaiming.

Under Sanji's exclamation, early in the morning, everyone on the ship woke up.

Chloe, Tyton, App, Xavier, Lilia, X, and Arkin also flocked to the deck.

The Rhodes Pirates disbanded after leaving Ralph Drew, and the others, such as Kidd and Bartolomeo, also disbanded the Pirates and traveled around the world to fulfill their dreams.

As for Lilia, her eyes Rhodes had been thinking about it, and when she passed by Rab as she rushed up the Upside Down Mountain, Colox miraculously cured Lilia, which made Xavier, who had been cold as ice, happy for a long time.

They stood on the deck, and the sea breeze was blowing.

"Wow, that's beautiful!" Lilia was picked up by Xavier, who had been curious about everything ever since she could see.

"Yes. Unexpectedly, X didn't carry his sniper rifle on his back, but instead grabbed an ice cream in his hand, "Shh, ice cream." ”

"Thank you. Lilia smiled sweetly and took the ice cream and ate it.

Xavier's face flushed slightly.

"It's nice to live together in this kind of place in the future, right? X said.

“…… Hmmm......"

X, who has always been a dead face, doesn't know how to express his love to Xavier: "Then it's decided." ”

"Will you be able to live in such a beautiful place in the future?

X touched Lilia's head: "We are all children of the sea. ”

"Yes, we are all children of the sea. Rhodes put his arm around Nana, "I've decided, I'll be on the sea for the rest of my life." ”

"It's a good choice~ Playing music in the sea breeze, that's the life I yearn for the most. Apu said.

Tyton pouted, "You all look like you have dreams. ”

"What about your dreams?" asked Chloe, who looked like a gentleman holding his glass, with a slight smile.

"I'm ......" Tyton blushed suddenly, "Actually, I've always had a crush on a girl in Rogue Town......"

"Huh, how many years has this been, who is it?" Rhodes gossiped.

"That's it...... That's it...... The girl's name is Dusty......" Tateton stammered, "I heard that she has returned to the East China Sea, and I want to go back to her." ”

"Okay, get her on the boat. Rhodes smiled, "Anyway, Colonel Adolf, oh no, it's time to call the major general, that guy is in charge of the entire East China Sea, and he won't refuse to ask for someone under him, right?

Sanji turned his head and said, "Are we going to the East China Sea?" I want to take that old man from Zhuofu and find ALL BLUE, which is also his dream!"

"YES, BUT UNTIL THEN, YOU'RE GOING TO COOK A MEAL AT ALL BLUE. Rhodes said.

"Ahh Sanji took Akin with him to go fishing.

"Then without further ado. Rhodes stretched, "Tyton!"

"Understood!" Tyton hurriedly ran to take the helm.

"Chloe, X, Apu!"

"Leave it to us!"

Chloe, Apu, and X go to fiddle with the canvas together.

"So...... Set sail!"
