Upon hearing this, Oz turned to look, and exclaimed in astonishment, "Shimotsuki Ryoma!?"
......
Chapter 683 The Descent of the Gods, Oz's Fear!
Shimotsuki Ryoma never expected that Oz, who caused trouble in the outside world and was known as the Demon, would also be able to enter the Kingdom of Gods.
In his heart, Frostmoon Dragon Horse murmured to himself, 'Could it be that Oz, like myself, is also a child favored by the gods?'
The reason why Shimotsuki Ryoma thought this way was because, in his understanding, no matter who it was, only with the permission of the gods could they enter the kingdom of the gods.
Therefore, Shimotsuki Ryoma believed that Oz's ability to enter the Kingdom of God must have been with God's permission.
Based on this understanding, Shimotsuki Ryoma came to the idea that Oz was also a child favored by the gods.
As soon as this idea came to mind, Shimotsuki Ryoma seemed to suddenly understand why Oz possessed a huge physique and talents that were different from ordinary giants.
After his 'sudden realization', Shimotsuki Ryoma noticed Oz, who was seriously injured.
This piqued Shimotsuki Ryoma's curiosity.
Shimotsuki Ryoma had fought Oars before, so he was very clear about Oars' strength.
Shimotsuki Ryoma knew that only a strong person at least at the level of a Great Swordsman could possibly have seriously injured Oz like this.
That was seven years ago. Now, Oz is clearly much stronger, and his size is the best proof of that.
So, who could have seriously injured Oz like that?
Shimotsuki Ryoma has a straightforward personality, and he directly asked his question.
Oz didn't immediately answer Shimotsuki Ryoma's question. Instead, he began to look around at the dreamlike scenery and asked, "Shimotsuki Ryoma, where is this? Did you bring me here?"
Shimotsuki Ryoma wasn't particularly surprised by Oz's question.
When Shimotsuki Ryoma was five years old, he first accidentally entered the Kingdom of Gods, unaware that this was the Kingdom of Gods.
If Oz stumbled in by accident, it would be perfectly normal for him not to know that this was the kingdom of the gods.
Without beating around the bush, Frost Moon Dragon Horse replied directly, "This is the legendary Kingdom of the Gods. The fact that you were able to enter here means that the gods have permitted you to enter."
Oz was shocked to hear this. He never expected that what Chen Anxia said was true, and that he would enter the legendary Kingdom of Gods in this way.
Shocked, Oz seemed to realize something and couldn't help but ask, "You said God allowed me to enter here? Does that mean God is here too?"
Oz then noticed that Shimotsuki Ryoma was looking at him like he was an idiot.
At the same time, Oz realized how foolish he had said.
In legends, the kingdom of the gods is the abode of the gods; it would be strange if the gods were not there.
Thinking it over, Oz hesitated for a moment, then tried to speak again.
However, before Oz could speak, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
Oz was stunned when he saw the figure.
Oz recognized the figure as Chen Anxia, who had once sought him out and given him the opportunity to enter the Kingdom of Gods.
Of course, Oz did not know Chen Anxia's name, but he could recognize Chen Anxia's appearance.
After Chen Anxia appeared, Shuangyue Longma greeted him with a devout expression, saying, "God, you have arrived."
Oz, standing to the side, was stunned. Several large question marks appeared above his head as he was completely unable to react.
Chen Anxia smiled and nodded slightly at Shimotsuki Ryoma, then turned her ambiguous gaze to Oz.
Faced with Chen Anxia's gaze, Oz felt that everything about him was laid bare.
Oz finally realized what was happening, and a storm raged within him.
Oz never expected that Chen Anxia was actually the legendary god.
At the same time, Oz's face showed fear, because he had previously harbored disrespectful thoughts towards Chen Anxia and the gods.
I wonder if the gods will find out, or if they will punish me.
Although Oz's current strength can be said to be at the pinnacle of the ocean.
But when facing Chen Anxia, Oz couldn't muster any fighting spirit or will to fight.
This wasn't because Chen Anxia's legends described him as incredibly powerful, but because Oz felt as insignificant as a speck of dust in front of Chen Anxia.
The feeling was so real that Oz dared not look directly at Chen Anxia, and his body even trembled uncontrollably.
Just then, Chen Anxia spoke up, "I never expected that my clone would choose you..."
As he spoke, Chen Anxia reached out and gently tapped Oz.
After that, Chen Anxia simply disappeared.
Meanwhile, Chen Anxia's voice reached Oz's ears, saying, "This time, I won't punish you for your disrespect..."
Without a doubt, Chen Anxia's words sent a chill down Oz's spine.
Oz knew that Chen Anxia knew exactly what he was thinking and that he had once harbored disrespectful thoughts towards him.
At the same time, Oz was extremely relieved that Chen Anxia did not punish him.
After confirming that Chen Anxia had left, Oz felt a strong sense of exhaustion wash over him, and his body collapsed uncontrollably to the ground.
In the few seconds after Chen Anxia appeared, Oz's mind was in turmoil and he was under tremendous pressure.
This made Oz feel as if he had been engaged in a battle that lasted for days and nights in those few short seconds, leaving him completely exhausted, both physically and mentally.
After a period of heavy breathing, Oz suddenly discovered that his injuries had miraculously healed completely.
Although Oz didn't know exactly what had happened, he knew it must be a blessing from Chen Anxia, and he marveled at the power of God.
Shimotsuki Ryoma's voice rang out again, "Oz, you still haven't answered my question."
Following the sound, Oz paused for a moment and then slowly began to recount his experiences when he saw Shimotsuki Ryoma's curious expression.
Listening to Oz's story, Shimotsuki Ryoma felt no emotion, only curiosity.
As for the three people Oars mentioned who joined forces to severely injure him, and who were Logia-type Devil Fruit users of the World Government, Shimotsuki Ryoma knew this, and had even fought against them.
The reason for fighting them is that the World Government also covets Wano Country's gold.
The result of that battle was an easy victory for Shimotsuki Ryoma.
This is the strength of Shimotsuki Ryoma as the world's greatest swordsman.
At the same time, Shimotsuki Ryoma noticed the mysterious person Oz had mentioned who had the exact same appearance and physique as God. Recalling what Chen Anxia had just said, he couldn't help but mutter, "A clone of God?"
Like Shimotsuki Ryoma, Oz also noticed this and fell silent, lost in thought.
......
Chapter 684 Bounty Order: Overturning the History of the World!
After numerous searches yielded no results, the World Government had no choice but to abandon the investigation into Oz's mysterious disappearance.
Meanwhile, the World Government attributed Oars' disappearance to the power of the Devil Fruit.
In the eyes of the World Government, only the power of a Devil Fruit could accomplish such a thing.
As for the possibility of Oz entering the Kingdom of God, the World Government didn't even consider it.
Although complete records about the gods are preserved in Mary Geoise, the headquarters of the World Government.
However, since the gods have not appeared for hundreds of years, these records have long since become legends.
Even though some people still firmly believe in the existence of gods, most people regard these legends as fictional stories.
Naturally, as the protagonists of a fictional story, the gods and their abode—the Kingdom of Gods—are also fictional.
Given this understanding, how could the World Government possibly believe that Oz could enter the fictional kingdom of the gods?
However, although Oars disappeared, his influence in completely destroying the Marine Headquarters was too far-reaching, and the blow to the World Government and the Navy was also enormous.
Therefore, the World Government issued the highest bounty in history.
The bounty for this palm strike immediately caused a tremor throughout the entire ocean.
In every corner of the world, people stared at the newly issued bounty posters in their hands, dumbfounded and utterly horrified, as if frozen in place.
Some of them were trembling, subconsciously muttering to themselves, "Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousand, hundreds of thousands, millions, tens of millions, hundreds of millions, billions, hundreds...hundreds of billions!?"
"My God! Oars the Demon, his bounty is a whopping 100 billion!?"
Similar reactions have occurred all over the world.
Along with the bounty posters, news of Oars' complete annihilation of the Marine Headquarters also spread like wildfire across the seas.
In an instant, the name of Oars the Demon resounded throughout the entire sea, causing countless pirates, forces, and nations on the sea to tremble in fear, and he became the undisputed strongest pirate of this era.
Naturally, Oz the Demon also gained more and more supporters.
These supporters call Oars the 'King of Pirates' and the 'Emperor of the Sea'.
And from then on, the titles of 'King' and 'Emperor' began to circulate on the sea.
The world line has completely deviated.
Today, Oz's influence on the world far exceeds that of the original story.
Even more than a hundred years later, countless pirates still feel terrified, fearful, and yearning when they mention Oars the Demon.
Of course, Oz, who had already entered the realm of the gods, was unaware of all this.
Time passed gradually, one year, two years... ten years...
Because Oars the Demon never appeared, the hype surrounding him on the high seas gradually faded, but the legend of Oars the Demon continued to circulate.
Before we knew it, more than two hundred years had passed.
Over the course of these two hundred years, the powerful figures on the seas have changed one after another, and the kings of the various kingdoms on the seas have also changed one after another.
In Wano Country, the current Shogun accidentally discovered a sealed historical text that recorded the deeds of Shimotsuki Ryoma.
However, the text above the Poneglyphs is not the common script of Wano Country, but the script used by that once great kingdom.
More than two hundred years ago, Shimotsuki Ryoma's adoptive father used the script of the Great Kingdom to record the Poneglyphs in order to prevent them from being exposed prematurely due to an accident.
