The Pirates' Legend Begins on Roger's Ship

Arthur, who had been sentenced to death, no longer cared about anything. He spoke out the truth and everything he knew at this moment.

Soon, Arthur was escorted out of the Enies Hall. The hall's door and reporters were all controlled by soldiers.

No one knew what would happen inside next.

...

Judicial Island, Central Square.

In order to give the world justice and to appease the world's civilians.

Soldiers lined up in two rows, blocking the streets, and civilians came in large numbers to watch the upcoming execution.

In full view of the public, Arthur was shackled on his neck, hands, and even feet.

From the Enies Hall, he was escorted to the streets of the Judicial Island. He was escorted to the execution platform like a prisoner, with heavy steps.

Never thought that just wanting to resign and leave the navy would end up like this.

He couldn't say anything, and his body was completely isolated by a layer of silent fruit's silent isolation membrane.

He was escorted to the travel platform and forced to kneel on it to look at the millions of people below throwing all kinds of things and debris at him.

He didn't understand what he had done wrong to be so hated by the world.

It seemed that those who hated and insulted him below the execution platform didn't know the truth.

They were just following the public opinion and were just puppets controlled by public opinion. They only remembered that he committed the "crime of genocide" and completely forgot the news about you who was praised as a genius boy a few months ago.

"For the sake of justice, absolute justice and the honor of the navy, even if the officers of the navy headquarters committed a crime, we will give the world an explanation!"

Zhan Guo stepped onto the execution platform, stood in front of Arthur, holding the microphone of Den Den Mushi, and said to the people below.

"Please rest assured, civilians of the world, we will never favor anyone because of selfishness."

"..."

Various responsibilities and imposed charges were fabricated by Zhan Guo to the people of Judicial Island.

The people listened to his speech and became more and more angry.

"Bullshit! I will never favor anyone, damn you, Zhan Guo! I always thought you were a gentleman, but I never thought you were a gentleman, a hypocrite!" Arthur cursed.

But no matter how he shouted, his voice could not be heard.

Only the sound of struggling to pull the chain made the two executioners with knives alert to him.

"Such a scum should be cut into pieces, has he ever thought about other people's families?!"

"Why did he become like this at such a young age... Let him die early, he will be a disaster when he grows up."

"So pitiful... The souls of those slaughtered civilians must be crying..."

No one noticed the innocent expression and resistance on Arthur's face, and they were all immersed in Zhan Guo's conversation.

"What am I here for..." Arthur looked at the dense crowd below, listening to their words that they all hoped they would die soon.

The speech lasted more than 20 minutes, and Arthur was insulted for 20 minutes.

He struggled at first, trying to defend himself, but now he looked completely relieved.

At this moment, he remembered what Kaido said to him in Punk Hazard a few days after he went to sea.

Kaido said: This world does not need weaklings...

At that time, he just responded with a nonchalant sentence, but now he knows how correct this sentence is.

All the right to speak is in the hands of the strong.

No matter how much you say and explain, it is better to act with strength.

An unprecedented extreme thought grew in his heart...

"I'm done, the public's atmosphere is in place, execute it." After speaking, Zhan Guo put down the microphone and retreated to the execution platform.

The executioners raised their knives and stood on both sides of Arthur.

No one noticed that Arthur's eyes were empty, as if he had lost all the beautiful fantasies about this world.

"Execution!"

At the moment when the two knives fell, Arthur looked at Cooper crouching on a chimney in a nearby square.

With just a cold and disappointed look, Cooper spread his wings over one meter long, crushed the chimney with his claws, and flew quickly to the execution platform.

He blew his wings at the two executioners in the air, and the strong wind generated knocked the executioners off the platform on the spot.

"Eagle?!" Zhan Guo covered his face and resisted the sudden wind that was like a shock: "Wait, you are...!"

He immediately recognized that the eagle with claw marks on its face was Arthur's pet.

I didn't expect that Arthur's pet would appear at this critical moment.

"What's going on? The execution was disrupted by an eagle?!"

The people looked at the situation above the execution platform, completely unaware that the murderous aura that threatened their lives was spreading throughout the square.

"Cooper!" Cooper roared, and quickly handed the ice dragon on his back to Arthur.

"Don't think about disturbing the execution!" Seeing Cooper putThe blade was placed on the wooden board in front of Arthur, and Zhan Guo appeared in front of Cooper as fast as thunder and punched him.

Bang, Cooper, who was hit, used the iron block to resist, but found that he could not resist Zhan Guo's power at all, and blood spurted out of his mouth.

Its body fell into the square below like a bullet in an instant, smashing a big hole.

Smoke and dust rose, and the people quickly dispersed when they saw it.

In the smoke, Cooper stood up quickly and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his wings.

This time, the severe pain and tearing sensation all over his body did not make him pretentious. He followed the warship and lived alone on the sea for more than a month, and came here with the determination to die.

How could he be afraid of death?

Arthur, who was completely emotional, broke free from the shackles on his right wrist and immediately reached for the knife in front of him.

"Arthur, do you still want to resist me at this point? This is the fate you chose yourself!"

Zhan Guo had no intention of giving Arthur any chance. The moment he punched him, his fist was suddenly deflected by a slashing wave from below the square.

The penetrating fist hit the wooden board of the execution platform, causing the entire execution platform to collapse.

"You old eagle!" Zhan Guo's punch missed, and he looked angrily at Cooper, who looked smug below.

"Cooper." (If he died, I would have no soul.) Cooper grinned at Zhan Guo, posing in the posture of Lan Jiao, and blood slid from the corner of his mouth to the ground.

Like a real eagle, standing firm.

In just a few seconds, Zhan Guo's pupils suddenly contracted, looking at Arthur who had taken back the blade in front of him and had already split the iron chain on his body.

He couldn't believe it, feeling the murderous intent on Arthur's body.

The momentum was completely different from before, like a beast that had untied the shackles.

Arthur used his domineering aura to break the sound restraint of the Silence Fruit, and swiftly chopped Zhan Guo off the platform that was about to collapse.

The execution platform collapsed, and Arthur put away his knife in mid-air and fell to the ground.

A large area of ​​cracks appeared on the ground of the entire square in an instant, and then it split like a spider web, and the square kept shaking.

"Lie down, Cooper." Arthur said to Cooper on the side.

After hearing this, Cooper quickly lay on the ground, covering the eagle's head with his wings, knowing what Arthur was going to do with the sword-drawing action.

Suddenly, Arthur's momentum soared to an unprecedented level. He used all his strength and slashed with his sword. A dazzling blade light instantly flashed through the middle of all the buildings in the town of Judicial Island.

With a loud bang, the whole town was instantly split in half.

Buildings collapsed, and smoke and dust filled the air. People were panicked and fled everywhere. The entire Judicial Island was like the end of the world, and many buildings rose into the air.

It was suspended in mid-air, and everyone was so frightened that their eyes bulged out, staring at the earth-shaking movement in the air and around them.

"We don't want self-restraint or anything like that."
