The Counter-Execution War!

_________________

"Those damn pirates!"

Seeing the Roger Pirates' flag fluttering in the wind atop the Oro Jackson, Sakazuki cursed loudly.

...

..

"What brings you here, Roger?"

"Don't tell me it's a coincidence," standing atop his naval fleet, Sengoku narrowed his eyes as he spoke in this critical moment, with others present there as well.

"Wahahah! Is that you, Sengoku? It's been a long time since our last meeting…"

"I mean, the eras have changed between our last and current meeting, isn't that fascinating?" Placing his hands in his jacket pockets, Roger laughed as he said this.

Roger stood at the front of the ship with Rayleigh and the rest, all of them focusing their eyes on the warship carrying Akainu, ignoring Sengoku and his companions.

Their looks carried a deep grudge against this admiral… Each time the image of his hand piercing through Ace's back in the future appeared in their minds.

'We must prevent that future from happening at all costs!'

This was their shared thought, and the best way to do that was to eliminate this vile admiral here and now.

"Roger Pirates! Do you wish to wage war against us, the Marine Fleet?"

"Pirates no longer play a role in this world! You carry no weight! No prestige anymore! Our real enemies now are the hunters!"

Sengoku mocked, trying to shake the pirates' spirit with his loud voice.

"Heh~ But I'm not just any ordinary pirate, Sengoku, you know well who I am…"

Roger paused for a moment before adding, "I am the Pirate King, Gol D. Roger!"

Sengoku's forehead trembled after hearing that. He hesitated for a bit before he earnestly requested, "Roger! Can you back down now, it would be in both our interests, I see no benefit for you here."

"Wahahaha! Sengoku, you are still far too far from your future self in terms of wisdom, you still lack a lot!" Roger laughed, before grabbing his sword, Ace, and slowly drawing it from its sheath.

"Roger! Are you foolish? What do you want? Revenge for an event that appeared in the manga? Where's the logic in that?"

Sengoku transformed into a giant golden Buddha before yelling that.

As terrifying red sparks of Conqueror's Haki shivered around Roger's sword at that moment, Roger laughed before saying,

"Wahahaha! What do you think is illogical about this? One Piece manga has always been right. Tell me, how many Celestial Dragons called you wanting Akainu's head just because they are fans of my son Ace and were saddened by his death?"

"Even the pigs you've been breeding for generations were convinced of the necessity of my son's life in this world when they learned his story!"

"Why hasn't someone like Akainu been convinced of that then?"

Roger pointed his sword at Sengoku and said, "Sengoku! I'm not here for revenge for what happened in the manga, that was indeed a sad scene that caused deep sorrow to my wife and a big psychological shock to her, I am here to rid the world of a scourge!"

"This man's justice is tyrannical enough to necessitate his death… It doesn't matter what happened to him in the past to become this tyrannical, the important thing is that he became this way indeed and this mistake must be corrected."

"Admiral Akainu must die here and now; I will not allow him to go into the future!"

As soon as he said that, Roger leaped from the Oro Jackson and rushed towards Sengoku, who also leaped.

"Tsk! You got what you wanted!" Sengoku also jumped in the form of the golden Buddha.

Boom!

A resounding clash of two users of Conqueror Haki caused the clouds in the sky to split.

Seeing this, the rest of Roger's pirates leaped towards other Marine ships.

In the waters of the Jaya Sea, another comprehensive war began, later to be called the Counter-Execution War!

…

Days after the events of the pirate and marine war.

In the central prison.

"Hasn't it shown up yet?"

"Please! I want a Solo Leveling magazine! Just one from the new release would suffice for me!"

"Stop shouting you're annoying me!"

Boom!

A kick from behind caused Moria's face to collide with the bars of the cell, causing him intense pain.

"Damn you! Golden Lion, what's the matter with you? You always kick me so harshly." Moria shouted angrily as he rubbed his swollen nose.

"There's no other entertainment in this prison other than bullying you, Moria."

"Pfff, I've gotten really bored, I want a Solo Leveling magazine too, order two you fool."

"Then say it gently and not violently!"

"If I weren't bound by seastone handcuffs I would have long turned you into one of my special shadow soldiers"

"Huh? You want to turn me into your special shadow soldier?" said Shiki.

Before Moria could react, he was kicked again.

"Ugh! Stop that I was joking!"

"Heh~ I know you weren't joking~"

Seeing Moria who fell away, Shiki lost interest and returned to the bracelet in his hand to browse more about what happened in the outside world a few days ago.

"Oh… interesting… it seems Roger went berserk this time! Ah, I wish I were free! I would have enjoyed what's happening at sea these days."

Shiki lamented his luck for not participating in the latest war named the Counter-Execution War, which almost saw the famous marine admiral executed.

"He barely survived Roger's sword!"

In the picture on the forum, Akainu appeared drenched in blood, completely resigned to his fate, while Roger stood holding his sword ready to behead the admiral on his warship after a battle that destroyed dozens of warships and the sea boiled beside them.

The moment in the picture was the critical juncture between an ending and a new beginning.

After that, Shiki browsed other pictures showing five terrifying creatures that appeared out of nowhere and chased Roger's pirates away.

"These are the Five Elders… What terrible power the World Government possesses…"

"Is this that foolish leader of the Holy Knights? Upon closer inspection, he resembles Shanks a lot."

"Lucky for the admiral, it seems the World Government did not want him dead and sent all its power to prevent Roger from taking his head… but with those injuries left by Roger, can he really live?"

Suddenly at that moment, two magazines fell to the ground, thrown from outside the cell.

Seeing the magazines, Moria's eyes sparkled with excitement, and he quickly jumped to pick one up.

Boom!

Before he could grab his magazine, he was kicked again.

"Haven't you learned common manners yet? Elders first."

Shiki picked up one magazine on its cover featuring Sung Jin-Woo surrounded by shadow soldiers, while he threw the other magazine on Moria's unconscious face.

"Well then, since I'm imprisoned and can't entertain myself at sea, I'll gladly entertain myself with these interesting stories."

"I wish I had the chance to go to the worlds of these stories and make the inhabitants of these worlds see the greatness of the Golden Lion! Jihahahaha!"

Shiki opened the monthly Solo Leveling magazine, which contained a full arc with an exciting title.

Jeju Island Arc!
