Chapter 196: He Does Not Care

No wonder.

From beginning to end, the Game Merchant never showed any desire to negotiate, because even an entity as massive as the World Government lacked the qualifications to sit at the table and negotiate with the Game Merchant.

Why choose the weakest East Blue?

The Five Elders initially guessed that the other party was afraid of the Grand Line's dense concentration of Navy forces and Admirals.

Now it seems that the other party simply chose a sea area at random, without any plan at all, as natural as choosing between lamb chops and seafood soup for dinner.

Why set the initial lottery item as 【Celestial Dragon Bloodline】?

The Five Elders thought the Game Merchant was feeling insecure, harboring some unspeakable secret, and thus used the 【Celestial Dragon Bloodline】 to test the World Government.

Now it seems,

it was truly just the Pirate Buggy having incredibly good luck, drawing a prize that made them feel as if they were facing a formidable enemy and caused them to be on high alert.

But to the Game Merchant, it was completely meaningless.

The other party possesses the ability to easily rewrite the Pirate World; all things must change according to the Game Merchant's will.

He has this ability.

All of the Five Elders' previous speculations and judgments can be overturned.

Because this was them thinking from the perspective of humans.

But the abilities displayed by the Game Merchant have already transcended the scope of humanity.

From Devil Fruits to Navy Body Arts, then to Haki, and finally the World Government's ultimate trump card, the Ancient Weapon, all were created by the other party as if it were a joke.

The Five Elders cannot comprehend this; isn't this something only a God in a fairy tale could do?

All along, their various speculations and measures were built on the premise of treating the Game Merchant as a hypothetical enemy or an object that could be won over.

But they never once thought, what if the Game Merchant's strength was so great that it was comparable to a God?

No,

comparable to a God—couldn't one actually just call that a God?

Inside the palace, feelings of panic and horror spread rapidly through the hearts of the Five Elders.

Especially after Lord Imu, whom they regarded as their backbone, suddenly took the initiative to cut off contact with them, the high-and-mighty Five Elders felt a sense of helplessness.

Just finished making threats to a God, what now?

Urgent!

"Compensation?"

Fang Yi's smile remained unchanged as he looked at that Golden Den Den Mushi, quietly waiting for what would follow.

If we are talking about compensation, then I am not sleepy or tired at all, and I am full of energy.

"Mr. Fang Yi, please wait a moment; we need to follow the instructions of Lord Imu."

Saturn's cautious voice came from the Den Den Mushi.

"No problem, I need to draw the prize for the winner first now."

Fang Yi did not mind their stalling, his gaze falling on a figure with great interest.

A spotted hat, a burly and sturdy physique.

The moment this figure appeared, it attracted everyone's attention; this very recognizable attire belonged to the Seven Warlords of the Sea under the World Government, the Tyrant Bartholomew Kuma.

Rumor has it that during his pirate days, he destroyed kingdoms with extremely cruel methods, hence the title of Tyrant.

But in fact,

what is before them is not the real person at all, but a Pacifista built according to the Tyrant's original body.

The reason Fang Yi noticed the Pacifista was because he sensed that the control of the Authority Chip inside this mechanical creation was changing, activating a hidden supreme command.

A control authority that transcends the Five Elders.

It just needs a little more time.

Fang Yi withdrew his gaze, looked back at the Leader of the Revolutionary Army, and asked, "Want an item to overthrow the World Government?"

"That's right."

Dragon's voice became heavy unconsciously.

There is no helping it.

No matter who witnessed the Game Merchant create the entire combat power of the World Government and also summon the power of an Ancient Weapon, they would become reserved.

"Damn it, if I had known, I would have held nothing back!"

After seeing the strength revealed by the Game Merchant and the panicked posture of the Five Elders,

Doflamingo gritted his teeth in regret, his fingers shaking the String-String Fruit as he plunged them fiercely into the sand.

Although he sold the treasury of Dressrosa,

the Devil Fruit Factory and Sugar's Toy Town were still preserved intact.

He held a fluke mentality, thinking that even if he were besieged by the Navy, he could move these buildings away completely after returning to the New World to avoid causing huge losses.

If he could have sold all of those, he could have bought a stronger Puppet army.

Then, who would win and who would lose would not be certain!

"How is it possible? Can the Game Merchant even control Ancient Weapons?"

Crocodile stood where he was,

watching the Rubber Fruit user escape, indifferent, lost in some strange emotion.

He did not pay attention to the Den Den Mushi broadcast at all times, so he had no concrete concept of the Game Merchant's abilities.

However,

even if he had watched the broadcast, a schemer like the Sand Crocodile would not have fully believed the content of the broadcast.

But now, the ocean that had just nearly boiled, the sunken world, and the massive weapon vaguely emerging from the seabed were all displayed completely before Crocodile's eyes.

A light screen panel appeared.

【Contract Task (2/5)】

Task content: Hand over 20 million Beli.

Task reward: G-1 Corona (Blueprint)

Hint: After completing the Contract Task, you can become a Reincarnation Game Player.

Kelu directly deducted the assets of the Baroque Works to complete the Contract Task content.

The compromise and concession of the World Government,

was like a storm sweeping across the world, branding the seed of the 【Samsara Game】 into everyone's heart.

The invincible impression of the World Government was finally torn open, causing countless people to stir.

Of course, the greatest shock was still the Game Merchant and the Samsara Game.

Those Pirates wandering in the Grand Line and the New World began to turn their ships around, heading toward the weakest East Blue.

"To be honest, there are many items that can overthrow the World Government."

Fang Yi spread his hands, looked at the conflicted-looking Long, and said: "The Dragon Blood contained within your body, if you continue to undergo Reinforcement, overthrowing the World Government will be easy."

【Do you wish to play the 【Heavenly Realm Tyrannical Dragon King】 video clip, priced at 5,000 Reward Points?】

Long was slightly stunned and asked in confusion: "Tyrannical Dragon King?"

"A dragon king from a high-level world; there are countless dragon clans across the heavens and myriad worlds, and although they are all called dragon clans, there are very large differences."

"The Tyrannical Dragon King once dominated an era; you might be able to find a goal from His video."

"Of course, there is a fee."

Fang Yi wore a smile,

leaving the choice to this Revolutionary Army Leader who possessed great ambition.

These videos are not inferior goods; they are all Time River Water that he salvaged from the river of time.

Just like the Jiangdian realization video of Hawkeye,

it allows all life that sees the video to personally experience a certain period of time, only they cannot change it.

"Mr. Fang Yi, I am willing to purchase it."

Long said decisively.

The surrounding crowd only felt that the Revolutionary Army Leader's head was not working well,

as a normal person would definitely try their best to save Reward Points to purchase various rewards to become stronger; who would spend 5,000 Reward Points to buy a video for no reason?

"Congratulations, you possess the viewing rights to this time video."
