Dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had been a while since Kyujō left East Blue. Dragon's call today was to deliver a particular piece of intel-something Kyūjō had personally requested before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Revolutionary Army's intelligence network was second only to that of the World Government itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Kyūjo's request wasn't complicated. He simply asked Dragon to keep tabs on one specific underworld organization-the one led by Donquixote Doflamingo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see. Got it. Thanks, Dragon,\" Kyūjō said calmly, speaking into the receiver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A light chuckle came from the other end, followed by Dragon's voice: \"Hahaha... No, I should be the one thanking you. If it weren't for our last talk... I might've never realized just how immature and fragile our revolution really is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grand Line - Paradise, First Half.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Night. Sea Swallow Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside a lavish castle lit by warm lamps, the sounds of laughter, clinking mugs, and rowdy celebration filled the air. A group of pirates\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>was throwing a feast, acting like they had just struck gold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One drunk, low-ranking officer from a small-time crew stumbled over to the captain and slurred out a question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Boss Mins... what's the big deal with that fruit anyway? I mean, sure, they say it makes you a great doctor or somethin', but... five billion Berries? C'mon, even the rarest Logia Fruit doesn't go for that much!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their captain, a burly man with wild yellow feathers draped over his coat-Captain Mins-snorted with amusement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From beneath his jacket, he pulled out a strange Devil Fruit shaped like a heart, red and glossy like a twisted apple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes were hazy, his voice laced with greed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who cares why? If the Navy's willing to pay five billion Berries for it, that's all that matters!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With that much money, we could disappear to Sabaody and live like kings. No more pirate life, just luxury! Hahaha-\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could finish his sentence-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chandeliers above exploded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room was swallowed in darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not a single sound followed. Just pure, suffocating silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A searing pain smashed into the back of Captain Mins' skull. His vision spun violently. Nausea crashed over him like a tidal wave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next thing anyone saw, the captain's massive body hit the floor with a thud, eyes rolled back. He never even got a chance to react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pair of shadowy arms emerged from the darkness, swiftly snatching the heart-shaped Ope Ope no Mi from the unconscious captain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without so much as a word, the cloaked figure turned and\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>disappeared into the shadows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A second later, they tossed a small device into the center of the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The explosion that followed was soundless-but devastating. Captain Mins and over a dozen of his crewmates were obliterated before they even knew what hit them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flash of the explosion illuminated the silhouette of the thief:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A tall, slender man dressed like a clown, wrapped in a black feathered coat. In his hand, he held the Ope Ope Fruit close to his chest, eyes trembling with emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Law... you're going to be okay. I did it. I actually did it...!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Donquixote Rosinante, a secret operative embedded deep within the Donquixote Family. The adopted son of Fleet Admiral Sengoku. Wielder of the Nagi Nagi no Mi, a Devil Fruit that silences all sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man who had lived a lie for years-just to save one child.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in that moment of relief... he let his guard down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His foot slipped on a patch of snow at the edge of the cliff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All 435 centimeters of him went tumbling down the slope like a giant\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>spinning top.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slammed into the ground below with a heavy thud-and was\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>immediately surrounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over a dozen flintlock rifles were pointed directly at his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No questions. No warnings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They pulled their triggers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosinante, flat on his back, barely had time to react. He forced his\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>body into a crude Tekkai stance-one of the Marine's six basic combat styles-despite never truly mastering it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before the bullets could hit-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A razor-sharp flash of light cut through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bullets split clean in half mid-flight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without wasting a second, a figure appeared in a blur.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His sword danced once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the blink of an eye... every enemy soldier was down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyūjo's blade, Rairyüken, slid smoothly back into its sheath, the soft\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>hum of metal whispering like a sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was almost as if the sword itself was complaining:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're using a blade like me to deal with these weaklings? Don't do\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>this again, Kyūjō...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosinante's eyes widened in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That man... That wasn't just anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was Seiryu. The legendary Vice Admiral known as the World's\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Greatest Swordsman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even his father-Sengoku himself-had mentioned this name many times over the Den Den Mushi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He must be so proud to have a nephew like him...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike me... I'm just a failure-doing petty missions, barely-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before Rosinante could spiral further into self-loathing, Kyūjo\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>walked over and offered his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're Rosinante, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry. Uncle Sengoku's told me all about you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard about this whole mess from another source, and since I\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>wasn't far from Sea Swallow Island, I figured I'd check it out.\" \"Good thing I did. You would've been dead trying to tank that volley with a half-baked Tekkai.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I keep telling Uncle Sengoku to ditch Tekkai and replace it with\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Busoshoku Haki as the Marines' new standard, but-old men and their traditions, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was an unexpected playfulness in Kyūjō's voice, and Rosinante finally managed a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that smile quickly faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He remembered why he came here in the first place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Law.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was still dying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosinante's expression turned grave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of hesitation, he locked eyes with Kyujo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Can I trust you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyujo didn't hesitate. He smiled gently and nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was all Rosinante needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without another word, he took off-leading Kyujo toward a hidden\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>spot on the island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they ran, he began explaining everything...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Join my Patreon here: patreon.com\u002FFaaanzKun Enjoy 70+ chapters ahead of WebNovel\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>else\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Get 2 new chapters every day exclusively on Patreon\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Be the first to enjoy the new 3rd arc after One Piece before anyone\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let's keep this adventure alive, together chapter by chapter!\u003C\u002Fp>",1072,"2026-06-06T13:14:24.000Z",1,"novelbin.me","3c3271c2cad85354cbfaeb2101a1e6b388cb63f9e90acd68c6ad4b258c3bddae","from-thunder-breathing-to-the-multiverse-chapter-117","from-thunder-breathing-to-the-multiverse-chapter-115",389,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffrom-thunder-breathing-to-the-multiverse-cover.jpg"]
