Felix the Night Arbiter

King Azka's words were like lightning bolts from the ground, causing the rest of the royalty to stand up from their seats in panic and shock.

Although the employment of pirates by the royal family is not a big deal, if contacting pirates to conspire to kill other members of the royal family, even including the marine, this crazy action is enough to be defined as a rebellion.

Even if King Alabasta was crazy, he couldn't openly provoke such a giant as the World Government.

Not to mention the rest of the royal family and marine, even the nobles and Cobra who had followed King Alabasta looked at him with disbelief, hoping to hear a denial from him.

Who knows, but King Alabasta shook his head with a sigh, "If you know this, why do you need to expose me? I was already impressed by the words of Ensign Longinus, but now I am forced to kill you all."

"If you go to hell, you must remember to repent of your idiocy!"

Acknowledged by King Alabasta, the rest of the royals and nobles still couldn't believe it.

"What? King Alabasta, you did such a crazy act, aren't you afraid of the World Government's sanction?"

"Father, what are you talking? You're pulling Alabasta into the abyss!" Cobra is also trying to discourage it.

"Huh? What do you know?" After hearing Cobra's words, the King of Alabasta, who had been coldly looking at him, finally had a slight change in his appearance, "You always tell me that Alabasta has reached the edge of a cliff, but do you think I don't know about such things?"

"I know the situation of Alabasta better than anyone else!"

"Then...then Father why did you..."

"Alabasta is nothing more than an uncontrolled wagon with a constantly breaking down the cliff behind it, and there may be hope for us if we keep running, but if we stop expanding, we'll fall off the cliff and shatter to pieces!"

"The only way to save Alabasta is to plunder, and keep on plundering, even if I know that the kingdom's armies are no longer capable of fighting, the war has to be kept going by other means."

"As for the World Government's sanctions? Huh? As long as everyone here is dead, who's going to know we did it?"

"Vicious pirates destroy the royal family and marine, and the valiant and fearless King Alabasta steps forward to save the day, what a perfect script!"

"Crazy, you are crazy!" King Hisca only felt chills all over his body and couldn't stop calling out, "Someone, someone takes this madman out of my sight!"

However, the deadly silence outside the palace was frighteningly quiet.

"Where are the guards? Why would no guards be coming in?" King Hisca yelled out of his mind.

"There is no need to struggle, my people have taken over this palace, and all you have to do is enjoy the opera called Slaughter taking the stage."

"King Azka, since you have known of his plot for a long time, you should be prepared for everything, right?" King Cretan looked with hopeful eyes at King Azka as if he were an outsider.

"Of course, if I wasn't prepared, how could I be stupid enough to turn myself in?" King Azka calmly removed the Den Den Mushi from his cuffs and smiled with satisfaction, "The lies have all been recorded by me, and whatever happens next, the World Government shouldn't suspect anything from me!"

King Azka's words were perplexing but gave the impression that he wasn't a nice person either.

"King Azka, what...what are you talking about?" King Cretan asked in a trembling voice.

"What do you mean?" King Alabasta also had a hidden feeling that something was wrong.

"What do you mean? Haha, let the mighty Captain Felix tell you the answer himself!"

Amid King Azka's maniacal laughter, a man shrouded in darkness, whose face could not be seen but who smelled of blood, entered through the gate, followed by many more fierce-looking pirates, who looked at the palace crowd with eyes that measured their goods.

"Felix, you...you betrayed me?" King Alabasta asked unbelievably.

"King Alabasta, let's not talk so badly, we were only in a partnership, and since someone offered a higher price, it's not unreasonable for me to change partners during the middle!" Felix said with his hands spread wide in frustration.

"You, you..." the King of Alabasta covered his chest, his face pale as if he was having a seizure from anger.

"Father, Father, don't you scare me!" Cobra is a little confused by this series of changes.

"Hahaha! That's why this being human has to be generous, or else you'll be the one to suffer in the end!" King Azka was showing off with high spirits, "Now that's even better, King Alabasta's death from too much passion should better confirm all that Den Den Mushi recorded!"

Hearing this, King Alabasta snapped back, but still looked at Felix with a furious resentment, "You wanted something like that, didn't you? I can give you more..."

"It is too late, if you had granted my request earlier, King Alabasta, it would not have come to this." Felix led his pirate down each step as if he were the king who controlled the whole situation, "Now, what I am asking for is already more than that, it is all you have."

"With that kind of thing, I have a foundation to stand on even in the New World, and if I really can't, I can offer it to those who are great in exchange for a more permanent development. King Alabasta, it's such a waste to leave that kind of thing in your hands!"

"As it turns out, I should have heeded Cobra's advice sooner, greedy pirates like you can never be fed enough, and even if nothing happened today, you would have betrayed and turned on me sooner or later. King Azka, you wait, it won't be long before you end up in the same situation as me, I'll be waiting for you in hell!"

"I say, aren't you guys too dismissive of the navy, and the 80 million bounties on the pirates of the sea are powerful, but it's far from an existence that can't be dealt with!" Commodore Adkin said in a hostile tone.

"Those New World Marines indeed have the mighty power to capture over a hundred million pirates on their own, but the Marines in paradise like you can't be much nearer a match," Felix said disdainfully.

"Of course, I also know that the Commodore is not yet someone I can take lightly, so I've made every preparation to deal with you, thanks to a gift from King Alabasta."

"It's over, it's all over, my kingdom my power is all over!" Seeing the gazes of the crowd, King Alabasta said with a sad face, "It's the Kairoseki powder, the Commodore is an ability user, in my original plan was to use the Kairoseki powder to make the all ability user lose their ability to resist."
