"Do you know who you are talking to, kid?" Jaygarcia Saturn said with some frustration.
"I already told you, don''t be so mad, it''s just a conversation, I mean maybe some interesting things can happen here, but let''s just talk a bit." Luffy spoke calmly.
The elders exchanged nces upon hearing this, unsure what the pirate meant by those words.
"What do you mean by interesting things can happen...?" Marcus Mars asked.
"You''ll know if our conversation gets to that point." Luffy said in a mysterious tone.
"Anyway, let''s have a chat..." Luffymented. "I bet you were discussing how you''ll be destroying us after what happened at Enies Lobby, right?" Luffy said.
"You''re not wrong." Topman Warcury admitted, "You''ve be a worse threat than we thought... besides, you killed 2 Celestial Dragons." When he spoke those words, the room turned somber.
"..." Luffy''s den den mushi was silent for a while, until, to the listeners'' surprise, he began tough. "Hahahahahaha!" Heughed for a few seconds before stopping and looking at everyone with a smug smile. "Yes, that''s true." Luffy had no reason to hide it. "I encountered a pig approaching me in the West Blue and a weird guy approached me in the middle of the sky, saying he wanted to kill me. I don''t regret either." Luffy said.
"That kid..." Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro said with frustration, despite knowing it was Luffy who killed the Celestial Dragons.
"You''ve admitted your unforgivable crime, I admit you have courage for that." Shepherd Ju Peter spoke with an eyebrow raised.
"Even more so in front of us, I don''t remember anyone talking to us this way." Jaygarcia Saturn murmured thoughtfully.
"Rocks once called us decades ago and he was as arrogant as this kid, it''s no wonder we authorized the Navy to work with Gol D. Roger at the time to deal with the threat without needing to resort to the Holy Knights or acting ourselves." Topman Warcury recalled.
"So you''re above the Holy Knights... I wonder then how strong you are..." Luffymented on the den den mushi curiously.
"Marcus Mars take it from me, kid, if we have to act, you''ll be killed so fast you won''t be able to react, we are far above the forces beneath us." Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro said with arrogance and wisdom at the same time.
"Maybe I''ll have the pleasure of meeting you one day then..." Luffy let that thought run through his mind out loud, after all, he wanted to face the 5 elders, who are above the level of admiral.
"This kid is really arrogant." Shepherd Ju Peterined seeing that Luffy didn''t seem to take them seriously.
"Anyway, this arrogance won''tst long..." Said Jaygarcia Saturn with a serious tone.
"That''s true, you''ve already caused us great trouble, Monkey D. Luffy, it''s time for you to feel the threat of the World Government, killing Celestial Dragons, capturing Domingo, and destroying Enies Lobby, if we can''t hit you now, we''ll go for your origins as well as those of your crewmates." Topman Warcury said, it was no secret they would attack another side to seek hostages if it meant ending this threat.
"Well, that''s pretty predictableing from you..." Luffy said then in a very calm tone, surprising the elders with it.
"You talk as if you could escape the wrath of the World Government..." Noticed Shepherd Ju Peter
"I say that because I know I can make you think twice before trying to act against my people." Luffy spoke calmly.
"Do you believe you can stand up to the World Government?" Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro raised an eyebrow to what he heard.
"I have my own strengths that you can''t ignore." Luffy said.
"We are the World Government, we have the Navy beneath us, along with all the organizations, you''re already familiar with the force called Holy Knights, you faced only one of the 20, you have no idea of our true power, do not underestimate us boy with empty threats." Jaygarcia Saturn spoke angrily losing patience with the boy''s arrogance.
Luffy was unfazed, the 5 most powerful people in the world were angry at him and he still maintained his smile.
"You might find this strange, but I have information that none of you have..." Luffymented.
"What do you mean...?" Marcus Mars asked curiously.
"You don''t have Shiki''s vivre card, do you? Which is strange given the importance you ce on him." Luffy spoke, knowing how the government cared about the Fuwa Fuwa no Mi.
"His vivre card..." Topman Warcury frowned, it''s true that the government has always been concerned about the Fuwa Fuwa no Mi, but since Shiki was in Impel Down, which was until then imprable and Shiki managed to be the first prisoner to escape from it, they had not worried about this before that event, which made them quite concerned, but Shiki had disappeared and they even considered that he might have died.
"Is he dead?!" Shepherd Ju Peter asked.
"Yes... but that''s not the most important thing..." Luffy spoke, leaving the atmosphere among the 5 elders a bit tense imagining what could be worse than Shiki being dead.
"I''m in possession of the Fuwa Fuwa no Mi." Luffy admitted, he intended to hide the fruit until the war, but due to the destruction of Enies Lobby, the government might make decisions against his people on the inds and he didn''t want that, so he had to get this conversation with these old men.
"You have the fruit? What do you want for it?" Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro immediately asked, after all, this was a fruit the government always wanted to get their hands on. But he understood something else from Luffy''s words.
"You''re mistaken..." Luffy corrected them. "When I said I''m in possession of the Fuwa Fuwa no Mi, it means someone on this ship ate it." Luffymented, leaving the 5 elders frowning even more.
"What are you nning...?" Jaygarcia Saturnmented.
"I knew you would try to retaliate against some ind of one of my crew members, so I decided to take some precautions, Shiki was a fool for never using his power against you, he could decimate any ind in this world, he could even attack the World Government from a great distance." Luffy spoke.
"You think you can demand that from us, an order! One order and we''llunch a Buster Call against your ind for you killing a Tenryuubito just like that." Marcus Mars was enraged as all of Mary Geoise trembled with that, while numerous Celestial Dragons were surprised here wondering what was going on. Marcus Mars thought it absurd that such an inferior being thought he could threaten them.
"Stop Marcus Mars. You''ll wake him up like that." Shepherd Ju Peter requested so that Im would not awaken because of them.
"Well, if ites to this, I''ll have to show I''m not joking." Luffy spoke and looked towards a frightened Bepo.
"Send what I asked for." Luffy demanded and despite still trembling from what he was about to do, Bepo ced his hand pointed towards the sky, feeling the''s orbit and starting to moverge rocks there.
The 5 elders heard what Luffy said, but did not know who the other person was, however, the atmosphere became even tenser, because they felt that something big was going to happen.
"Here''s my proof, you can look out the window and see the little gift I''m sending you..." Luffy spoke and this made the 5 elders quickly go to the ce to look towards the sky.
"Him!" eximed Shepherd Ju Peter, surprised.
"He really did that?!" Jaygarcia Saturn could hardly believe it, his voice mixing shock.
"This pirate has gone mad," Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro murmured, frustration clear in his voice.
"Who would have thought that after 700 years, something like this would happen?" Marcus Mars questioned, reflecting on the gravity of the situation.
"We should have destroyed him since the West Blue, now he''s uncontroble with these powers, he''s worse than his father..." Topman Warcurymented, as to how the situation hade to this.
Each of the elders expressed their displeasure with Luffy as they remained looking at the starry sky, but they already saw things no one else could, and one star in the sky in particr was their target in their eyes. However, it wasn''t really a star, because it began to growrger with every moment, getting bigger and bigger, until it started to illuminate the sky.
A particr Tenryuubito was walking through the streets of Mary Geoise, riding on a ve from the Baneer race, who was a huge man chained up who seemed to have no life left in him as he had a vacant look and just obeyed his master while crawling with his master as he demanded to go.
The Tenryuubito on top of the Baneer frowned. "What was that tremor? Such a nuisance, it spoiled my mood," he spoke arrogantly.
And he added, determined to take out his frustration on something as he looked at his ve. "I''m going to take it out on you." He dered and then took his whip and began to beat the man.
"Move faster, you useless thing! The only thing that will improve my mood now is dining with my favorite ves," he said as he whipped the man more. The passersby didn''t even seem to care; not even the ve himself, who after all, death would be more merciful than that situation.
"Move faster!" He eximed shaking the whip and at one moment he looked up at the sky and saw a very bright star. "What is that?" he said as he stopped attacking the ve, while snot ran from his nose, in his astronaut helmet.
"Hm? It''s getting bigger," he spoke, foolishly, and many others in the city looked up at the sky and noticed too. But now, it no longer seemed like a shooting star, as more time passed and it increased in size, until something that everyone realized and became rmed and shocked, entering into a certain despair.
"That?!" A Tenryuubito shouted.
"Ahhhh!!!" The Tenryuubito who was in front of the ve got scared and jumped off the Baneer and ran on his own.
This began to happen throughout the entire city, after all, it proved to be a meteor, a meteor at a distance that began to illuminate the whole ce, while the five elders looked at it, shocked and angry at the same time. After all, that pirate really had something like this in his hands, and even more courage tounch something like this at the holy city to prove his words.
Not that they were worried, but this power was really a threat. While at a distance, from the luminous Mary Geoise, thousands of kilometers in the sky, a meteor passed at this moment while the huge rock burned releasing smoke and fire in its tail as it rushed to the ground with the help of gravity and with an extra force from Bepo controlling it, while its target was the most powerful city in the world.
