As Rocks summoned, all the Executive Officers also returned to Beehive Island.
"Gyahahahaha, Nox, do you know why Rocks called us here this time?"
Upon arriving at Beehive Island, Golden Lion laughed and asked.
Now, with the continuous development of his Float-Float Fruit, his strength was growing stronger and stronger, so strong that he no longer called Rocks "Captain", but directly by his name.
"I'm not Rocks, how would I know what he wants to do."
Nox said speechlessly, Golden Lion's question was inexplicable.
"Whitebeard, do you know?"
Then, Golden Lion looked at Whitebeard, who was walking over, and asked.
"Shiki, did you take the wrong medicine today?"
Whitebeard rolled his eyes at Golden Lion.
Originally, Whitebeard had not planned to come, because in the past two years, he had found many child.
Having recognized many child, Whitebeard had found what he initially wanted.
But these child were still too weak to survive in this cruel Sea, and needed his protection to grow up healthy.
So upon hearing Rocks' summons, he subconsciously wanted to refuse.
"This is the last time I help Rocks. After this, I will leave the Rocks Pirates!"
This was Whitebeard's inner thought at this moment.
"Whitebeard, I can feel that you probably don't want to stay in the Rocks Pirates anymore."
Golden Lion smiled.
"So what?"
Whitebeard did not deny it either.
"Gyahahahaha, do you remember what we said back then?"
"When we feel the time is right, we will leave the Rocks Pirates together."
"You, me, plus Nox, and maybe even that woman Charlotte Linlin."
Like Whitebeard, Golden Lion also couldn't stand working under Rocks anymore; he wanted to be a Captain himself!
"Mama Mama, Shiki, I seem to have heard you call me."
At this moment, Charlotte Linlin also arrived, coincidentally.
"Gyahahahaha, Charlotte Linlin, you've come at the right time."
Immediately after, Golden Lion repeated what he had just said.
"Golden Lion, your words are very appealing. With the four of us working together, even Rocks is not to be feared!"
Nox smiled.
Over the years, the strength of the four of them had greatly improved. Their strong power brought them absolute confidence.
"Gyahahahaha, how about it? Should we take advantage of this Executive Officer meeting to formally propose the idea of leaving the Rocks Pirates to Rocks?"
Golden Lion also laughed confidently upon hearing Nox's words.
"Mama Mama, I think it's possible."
Charlotte Linlin also agreed with this matter. She had many child and needed a stable territory to develop.
She really wanted to snatch the territory she had set her sights on from Rocks.
"No problem!"
Whitebeard also agreed.
"Gyahahahaha, then it's settled."
Golden Lion said cheerfully.
Subsequently, the four of them walked onto Beehive Island together and entered the meeting room.
At this moment, all the Executive Officers were present except for the four of them.
When the four of them entered, the other six Executive Officers all stared at Nox and the other three.
These six Executive Officers were all people with strong sensory abilities, and they clearly sensed something from the four of them.
Just then, Rocks walked out from the back of the meeting room.
"Gyahahahaha, Captain Rocks, this is the last time I call you Captain."
"From today onwards, the four of us formally wish to leave the Rocks Pirates. Please approve!"
Golden Lion, for once, acted like a gentleman and said this sentence, thinking he was being very polite.
"What!!!"
Hearing Golden Lion's words, John and the other six Executive Officers stared at Nox and the other three in disbelief.
They never expected that the four of them would unanimously want to leave the Rocks Pirates.
If the four of them left, the overall strength of the Rocks Pirates would instantly be reduced by one-third!!
"Wahahahaha, Shiki, have you really thought it through?"
Hearing Golden Lion's words, even though Rocks had anticipated this situation a long time ago, when this scene truly arrived, the anger in his heart was still difficult to suppress!
As he spoke, Rocks' Haoshoku Haki was fully released, surging towards Nox and the other three.
"Captain Rocks, of course we've thought it through. Thank you for your care over the past three years."
Nox's Haoshoku Haki also erupted.
Then, the Haoshoku Haki of Golden Lion and the other two also surged towards Rocks together.
The combined Haoshoku Haki of the four of them was actually evenly matched with Rocks' Haoshoku Haki alone!
One must know that in the past, Rocks' Haoshoku Haki could suppress the Haoshoku Haki of all the Executive Officers.
But now, he couldn't even suppress the Haoshoku Haki of Nox and the other three.
It wasn't that Rocks had become weaker; in fact, Rocks' Haoshoku Haki was even stronger than before.
But the growth rate of Nox and the other three was too fast, much faster than Rocks, to the point that the four of them combined were completely not inferior to Rocks.
"Wahahahaha, let's put this matter aside for now, because I have more important things to say later."
"Furthermore, the content I am about to discuss is also closely related to your interests."
"If you want to leave the Rocks Pirates, let's talk about it after this operation!"
Seeing that his Haoshoku Haki couldn't suppress Nox and the other three, Rocks suppressed the anger in his heart.
He hadn't expected the growth rate of Nox and the other three to be so fast, but thinking that the upcoming matter required Nox and the others to act, he didn't dwell on it at this critical juncture.
"Since that's the case, then let's listen to the content of this meeting."
Since Rocks had given them such an opening, Nox and the others naturally wouldn't be tactless.
Furthermore, if they could leave the Rocks Pirates peacefully, they really didn't want to have a conflict with Rocks.
"It's over?"
John and the other six Executive Officers looked at all this in disbelief.
One must know that in the past, Rocks was an absolute ruler who said what he meant, and no one who had a conflict with him could come out unscathed.
But now, they saw Rocks compromise.
"If they can do it, can we do it too?"
Rocks' compromise planted a seed in the hearts of the other Executive Officers to leave the Rocks Pirates.
After all, they also didn't want to be suppressed by Rocks forever, always being subordinates to others.
They also hoped to become Captains themselves!
"Hmph, after this operation, when I get that item, you'll see!"
Although Rocks suppressed the anger in his heart.
But for those who betrayed him, if he didn't kill them, how could he vent the anger in his heart, and how could he maintain his prestige as Rocks?
According to the information he had received, this Celestial Dragons' grand ceremony not only included the Devil Fruit he had lost, but also other Devil Fruits brought out by the Celestial Dragons themselves.
In addition to the Devil Fruits, there were also other treasures, famous swords, and the like.
Most importantly, he heard there was a formula for extending life, a formula that could extend lifespan!
This had a fatal attraction for Rocks.
What lay before him now was the threat of lifespan. If he obtained that life-extending formula, he would return to his peak, and it was even possible to go further.
At that time, he would naturally have absolute confidence to suppress all those who were defiant!
"According to reliable information, the Celestial Dragons held a kingdom massacre competition in West Blue."
"There are about 100,000 people in the kingdom, who are the targets of the Celestial Dragons' massacre."
"Of course, what we are concerned about is not the Celestial Dragons' competition, but the rewards of the competition."
"The Celestial Dragons have put out many treasures and Devil Fruits as rewards this time."
"Currently, the value of the treasures is estimated to be at least 200 billion Berries, and the Devil Fruit that has been confirmed is the Fish-Fish Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Azure Dragon Form."
"There are as many as five other Devil Fruits comparable to the Azure Dragon Fruit!"
"There are at least a hundred other Devil Fruits."
"Our target this time is the numerous treasures and Devil Fruits within God Valley."
Rocks, who had calmed down, began to state the purpose of this meeting.
"Mythical Zoan Azure Dragon Fruit?"
"200 billion Berries worth of treasures?"
"Hundreds of Devil Fruits?"
Hearing Rocks' words, the eyes of almost all the Executive Officers present turned red. So many treasures simply refreshed their understanding of treasures!
Since when could the number of Devil Fruits be measured in "hundreds"?
How could so many Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits, which are rarer than Logia types, appear all at once?
One should know that even within their Rocks Pirates, only John alone possessed a Mythical Zoan, and this Devil Fruit was given to John by Rocks.
"Captain, give the order, let's go together and snatch all those treasures back!"
John, hearing there were so many treasures, couldn't help but stand up.
"Wahahahaha, Shiki, this time, just like last time, use your ability to take us through the Calm Belt and directly enter God Valley in West Blue to plunder the Celestial Dragons' treasures!"
Seeing the greedy eyes of the numerous Executive Officers, Rocks also laughed heartily.
"Gyahahahaha, no problem, leave it to me!"
Hearing this, Golden Lion naturally wouldn't refuse this kind of profitable task.
That was West Blue, and it was where the Celestial Dragons were located. Without the entire Rocks Pirates going together, it would be impossible to snatch anything from the Celestial Dragons.
This was something everyone knew, and this was also why Golden Lion didn't refuse.
If there was profit to be made, no one would give up, especially not a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit.
Even Whitebeard would not refuse to snatch a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit.
"Wahahahaha, then immediately gather the crew and prepare to set off!"
Rocks said.
Holy Land Mary Geoise:
"The Rocks Pirates have gathered all their Executive Officers once again, and a large fleet has set out from Beehive Island."
