A scorching light instantly pierced through the darkness, like the first light of dawn tearing apart the night sky.
Sabo was engulfed in blazing flames as his body transformed into a massive three-legged Golden Crow.
His burning feathers radiated terrifying heat, glowing like a miniature sun. Every flap of his wings stirred violent heatwaves that distorted the air around him.
The sudden transformation stunned everyone present.
"How dare you! Who are you?! Do you intend to use force in Mary Geoise?! Guards, capture this bird monster immediately!"
The Celestial Dragon seated in the center atop the largest Kuma roared furiously.
The surrounding guards and bodyguards did not dare hesitate after receiving the order. They immediately charged toward Sabo with weapons raised.
Crow, who stood closest to Sabo, realized the situation had already spiraled out of control. Without hesitation, his body dispersed into countless ink-black crows and vanished from sight.
Sabo was already furious. Seeing these guards willingly serving monsters like the Celestial Dragons only made the killing intent in his heart intensify.
The massive Golden Crow gently flapped its wings.
In an instant, a scorching gale swept across the area.
As the burning wind passed through the charging guards, their clothes ignited immediately. Their skin rapidly turned crimson red as their bodies began melting from the unbearable heat.
One after another, they collapsed onto the ground like melted wax.
Their flesh dissolved into pools of blood before completely drying up, leaving behind only dark red stains across the floor.
Rags, who had already hidden himself among the scattered ink crows, stared at the scene in shock.
This was the true terror of a Mythical Zoan.
The Bird-Bird Fruit, Model: Three-legged Golden Crow.
Sabo barely moved, yet dozens of guards were erased instantly.
The three Celestial Dragons were completely dumbfounded.
The middle-aged Celestial Dragon froze for a moment before his expression twisted with rage.
"You bastard! Even when beating a dog, you should look at its owner first! We are World Nobles! Kneel down and offer your head immediately, and I might allow you to die with your corpse intact!"
Meanwhile, the two younger Celestial Dragons beside him had never witnessed such horror before.
They collapsed onto Bartholomew Kuma's back in fear, thick snot hanging from their noses while yellow liquid slowly spread beneath them.
They had completely pissed themselves.
Seeing this pathetic sight, Sabo's sharp bird eyes narrowed coldly.
With a swing of his massive wing, the three Celestial Dragons were blasted off Kuma's back.
"World Nobles? Celestial Dragons? You're nothing but parasites."
The middle-aged Celestial Dragon looked at him in disbelief.
"What did you say?! You ant! How dare you insult us?! We are descendants of the creators of this world! Without us, trash like you wouldn't even exist!"
Sabo laughed coldly.
"Creators? Who gave you that title?"
Then his expression turned mocking.
"Actually, forget it. You people are just pigs trapped inside a cage called the World Government. Of course you know nothing about the real world."
The Celestial Dragon's face turned red with rage.
This was the first time in his life someone had dared speak to him like this.
"Damn you! Don't be ungrateful!"
He hurriedly pulled out a white Den Den Mushi from his clothes.
However, before he could use it, a black crow suddenly shot forward and snatched it away.
The Celestial Dragon's pupils shrank.
When he raised his head, he met Sabo's scarlet eyes.
The killing intent radiating from Sabo felt almost tangible.
The Celestial Dragon's entire body trembled uncontrollably.
"You... you can't mess around... don't mess around..."
Sabo gritted his teeth, suppressing the urge to kill him immediately.
He remembered what Rolan had told him before.
Every Celestial Dragon's Vivre Card was stored somewhere inside Pangea Castle. The moment one of them died, the World Government would instantly learn their location.
If he killed these pigs now, the entire Mary Geoise would explode into chaos.
The Gorosei.
Holy Knights.
Even Imu.
Once those monsters moved, escaping would become nearly impossible.
Sabo slowly restrained the murderous aura around him.
The moment the pressure weakened, the middle-aged Celestial Dragon suddenly burst into arrogant laughter again.
"Hahaha! That's right, you filthy ant! Kneel and beg for forgiveness! Don't you want to save this beast?!"
He pointed arrogantly at Bartholomew Kuma.
"Kneel down and lick our shoes clean! Maybe I'll leave him with a complete corpse! Hahaha!"
Sabo's expression turned colder.
He raised one foot and stomped heavily onto the ground.
The earth instantly softened like melted chocolate.
A massive hand suddenly emerged from underground, grabbed Kuma's body, and dragged him beneath the earth.
A second later, the ground returned to normal as if nothing had happened.
The Celestial Dragon stared in horror.
"Wh... what?! You actually have accomplices?!"
Seeing Kuma safely rescued, Sabo slowly turned toward the three Celestial Dragons.
The torture Kuma suffered under these monsters had already pushed Sabo's anger to the limit.
A terrifying aura exploded from his body.
Crack!
Crack!
Crack!
The glass head coverings worn by the three Celestial Dragons shattered instantly.
The two younger Celestial Dragons trembled violently, their minds completely blank from fear.
Even the middle-aged man's face turned pale.
Since birth, they had lived as gods among men.
Countless guards protected them.
Anything they wanted could be obtained with a single command.
They had never experienced danger.
Never experienced fear.
But now, under Sabo's overwhelming Conqueror's Haki, the Celestial Dragon finally understood what death felt like.
Yellow liquid slowly spread beneath him once more.
He had pissed himself again.
His Den Den Mushi was gone.
His body could not even move beneath the crushing pressure.
And this area of Mary Geoise was relatively isolated.
If Sabo killed them here, their corpses might not be discovered for days.
"M-master... you can take that beast if you want... I'll give him to you... please spare us..."
At this point, he no longer cared about dignity.
He only wanted to survive.
The moment Sabo heard Kuma being called a beast again, the rage in his heart exploded.
Bang!
One wing strike smashed directly into the Celestial Dragon's face.
His body shot backward like a cannonball.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
He crashed through dozens of buildings before finally stopping.
The next two wing strikes followed immediately.
Bang!
Bang!
The two younger Celestial Dragons were also sent flying through multiple walls before crashing beside the middle-aged man.
By the time Sabo appeared before them again, the three Celestial Dragons no longer looked human.
Their bones were shattered beyond recognition.
Their bodies sprawled across the ground like piles of rotten meat.
"You... don't mess around... if you kill me... an Admiral will come..."
Sabo ignored his pathetic threats and slowly raised his wing again.
At that moment, Rags suddenly appeared beside him and grabbed his arm.
"Enough, Sabo. Don't lose control now. Killing them here won't benefit us."
Sabo remained silent for several seconds before finally lowering his wing.
He understood.
If they killed three Celestial Dragons inside Mary Geoise, none of them would leave alive.
The ground beneath them suddenly rippled.
A hand emerged from underground, instantly grabbing Sabo and Rags before pulling them beneath the earth.
The area returned to silence.
Meanwhile, inside the grand hall of Pangea Castle.
"Ant!"
