045: The Great War Has Begun. Since You Are Ready to Put People to Death, Then Be Prepared to Die Here!

'Operation Demon Slaughter'!

This is the codename the World Government has given to the plan to destroy Bai Ye.

As the name suggests, when Kong used the golden Den Den Mushi to issue orders to all levels of the World Government, the action that would start would be like a "Buster Call" in the hands of the Marines, which struck fear into the outside world.

All warships would carry out indiscriminate and destructive attacks on the area where the signal is sent simultaneously.

It didn't matter if the people above were innocent civilians, hostages kidnapped by pirates, or anything else.

Once the action started, the 'Buster Call' would be used to completely wipe out all things and people in the target area that threatened the rule of the World Government with absolute 'strong measures'

– until the target was completely dead or the area was razed to the ground!

And at this very moment, with 'Operation Demon Slaughter' officially underway, from Bai Ye's perspective, this was what could be seen above the distant sea: World Government warships lined up in a row, gradually beginning to appear.

At the same time, the front, left, and right revealed the full picture of this "devil-slaying operation" like a trio of pincer movements.

The World Government dispatched hundreds of warships!

One could imagine that the World Government was fully prepared to bury him here this time.

Anyone from any faction on the Grand Line who saw this scene would shudder.

Unknown to them, they must have thought that the World Government's determination meant the start of a collective war against the four Emperors' pirate groups, all at the same time!

However, no one would have imagined that this massive 'Operation Demon Slaughter' was prepared for just one person!

And at this moment, the atmosphere was like a suffocating quagmire.

"It's... It's over!"

"We're doomed...we're going to die here!"

Caught in the middle on a trembling pirate ship, those pirates saw the terrifying formation of the World Government and their scalps nearly exploded.

They harbored a wild hope that Bai Ye would back down and give them space to escape.

As the weakest who had strayed into the center of this battlefield—whether it was the man in front who shook the Grand Line alone or the terrifying troop lineup of the World Government behind him—none of them dared to provoke any side.

So, they could only pin their hopes on Bai Ye choosing to retreat when he saw the World Government's troops.

However, Bai Ye's next move shattered every hope of the pirates on the pirate ship.

Seeing that the World Government's arrangement was as terrifying, if not more so, than the Summit War, Bai Ye did not retreat.

Instead, he intended to face the terrifying lineup of the World Government alone!

"A sinner like me?"

Bai Ye stepped onto the boat without a trace of fear on his face.

Looking directly at the figure at the forefront of the warships dispatched by the World Government, the one exuding the most powerful aura, Bai Ye's eyes held nothing but disdain.

"Pirates can burn, kill, and loot unscrupulously. Marines can use their powers to collect bribes at will, even capturing civilians under their banners privately to turn them into slaves to trade in exchange for wealth."

Bai Ye spoke slowly about what he had observed on the Grand Line.

In the end, he said in a cold tone:

"What is the real definition of a sinner? What is the World Government that can turn a blind eye to all this?"

Bai Ye's voice wasn't loud, but under the power of Reiatsu, it could be heard even on the bottom islands of Sabaody.

"At the end of the day, whether it's the World Government hiding behind the Marines, or you appearing in front of me now, you are nothing more than trash, the epitome of hypocrisy!"

"Now—"

"You!!!"

Kong's face suddenly sank.

Suddenly.

"You bloody bastard...how dare you slander the World Government!"

Just as Bai Ye's voice fell.

On a warship not far from Kong Kong.

This was the first violent sound.

Then there was a swing of a long knife over ten meters!

The air was torn.

From the weapons and the movement, it was obvious that the person who had come was no ordinary individual at all.

It was a member of the renowned Titan family in this world!

I saw that the man of the Titan tribe had his eyes full of zeal for the World Government.

The muscles in both his arms were tense, and his blue veins were bulging.

The next second.

"The Gun of Al Buff...

...Weiguo!!!"

Hum!

Suddenly.

A beam of light capable of piercing through tore the sea apart.

It set off countless water splashes and hit Bai Ye directly!

"Dead...dead!"

The trembling pirate almost collapsed.

But suddenly, he discovered that the attack was from Bai Ye.

They were relieved.

However...

That seemingly powerful attack...

Following the Kong air force ship, the titans made an unbelievable sound.

I saw Bai Ye facing the attack.

He simply raised a hand.

Subsequently.

He actually caught that powerful slash in his hand!

Then.

Bai Ye exerted strength with his five fingers!

The Slash Wave was instantly smashed!!!

"Impossible..!"

As soon as the titan man spoke, he frantically wanted to see exactly how Bai Ye had done it.

But the next second.

Boom!!!

In the eyes of this titan man.

In the distance, Bai Ye's eyelids obviously didn't even twitch.

But the moment they made eye contact with Bai Ye.

Suddenly.

The entire daytime sky turned black...

No, that's not right.

It was he who felt within himself... "smaller"!!!

The figure of Bai Ye falling in his eyes from a distance was constantly rising... like a peak!

At the same time.

A sense of terror and oppression that one dare not look directly at, suffocating, was constantly emanating.

Obviously, at a distance, it was but a small bug that could only "look up" to him.

But he felt the terrifying pressure of falling into the deep sea!

And if those terrible pressures were combined...

Death!

The titan man took a few steps back abruptly, and upon becoming unsteady, he squatted directly on the ground.

"F, what happened?!"

The titan man looked at Bai Ye in the distance in disbelief.

However.

Those present ignored him.

Or.

No one had figured out exactly what method Bai Ye used.

But going through this.

The World Government staff who participated in the Demon Slaughter operation couldn't help feeling an extreme fear of Bai Ye!

And at this time.

Bai Ye naturally had no interest in paying attention to this kind of "waste" who couldn't even bear a trace of Reiatsu.

He raised his head, facing the battle of "Operation Demon Slaughter" initiated by the World Government.

Bai Ye continued the topic just now and said slowly:

"Now, since you are ready to put people to death, you should all be ready to die here."

The cold voice fell.

Boom!

He released all the Reiatsu hidden in his body!

In a split second.

Compared to the Reiatsu that the tall titan man felt just now...

That was more than ten times...no, it should be said a hundred times the pressure!

The incomparable "overwhelming" atmosphere instantly descended on the sea of Grand Line!

At the same time.

The almost materialistic Reiatsu no longer seemed to be blazing on Bai Ye this time.

Instead, with Bai Ye as the center, it was like an unprecedented special 'Conqueror's'.

The atmospheric pressure was abruptly altered by the terrifying Reiatsu!

And those who couldn't bear this Reiatsu.

They were all instantly pressed to the ground and could not move!
