Shocking news once again spread across the sea.
People, shaken by one shocking piece of news after another, were too astonished to speak.
"We're going to flatten Germa!!!!"
The Five Elders' fury reached its peak.
The faces of these five old men turned red.
For how many years had it been? Not even Roger reaching Laugh Tale had made them this angry, this...
terrified.
What did thirty-three affiliated nations withdrawing from the World Government mean?
The World Government directly lost jurisdiction over North Blue, and North Blue was also the closest of the Four Seas to the New World.
Once that so-called North Blue First Empire was established and allied with the New World, a truly formidable force capable of contending with the World Government would rise!
But what terrified the Five Elders even more was the report CP agents had just given them: over 170 affiliated nations and countless other countries across the sea had suffered severe currency depreciation incidents during this period.
The value of Berry had plummeted more than tenfold, and the major merchant associations on the sea had frantically colluded to raise prices.
The massive influx of cash flow had caused Berry's credibility to hit rock bottom.
Undoubtedly, only Tesoro could have done such a thing.
Now, it wasn't just North Blue planning a rebellion; it was probably the entire affiliated government nations that were severely dissatisfied with them!
At this point, appeasement was useless.
Only by completely crushing Germa and forcing all North Blue nations to submit at their feet could they restore order.
But precisely at the most critical moment, the Marines also suffered heavy losses, and Mary Geoise experienced its largest attack ever.
The government's reputation was already ruined!
The Five Elders' hands were trembling.
For eight hundred years, since the World Government was established, it had never encountered such a massive crisis.
The World Government usually ignored the kings of those affiliated nations, even allowing Celestial Dragons to bully nobles and kings of affiliated nations.
That was because individual nations could not affect the World Government's hegemony.
But now, 170 affiliated nations collectively expressed dissatisfaction with the World Government, and North Blue had even completely withdrawn, setting an example.
If this continued, and all 170 nations withdrew, their World Government would completely become a government in name only.
"Go to the Empty Throne, seek an audience with Imu-sama."
The Five Elders' 'Gandhi' gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.
"Only that esteemed person can clean up this mess!"
