Konan's words silenced the entire battlefield; even Sengoku was momentarily speechless.
"But that's not a reason for you to arbitrarily take the lives of others!"
Zephyr finally spoke, his voice filled with anger as he glared at Konan. However, this was clearly an attempt to change the subject.
Konan saw through his intentions but didn't mind.
"This is revolution, and revolution inevitably involves sacrifice."
She simply said this, then suddenly smiled.
"What are you smiling about?" Zephyr asked, his expression serious. He knew he had to treat the woman before him with utmost caution.
Because not only was this woman's strength terrifying, but her words were equally alarming.
"I'm laughing at this absurd world." Konan replied, then with a flap of her wings, she soared into the air, hovering above.
She looked towards the distance, in the direction of where the World Government was located.
With a hint of disappointment, Konan looked down and said, "The World Government you serve so diligently has no intention of supporting you at all.
"In their hearts, perhaps your loyalty is completely worthless.
"We overestimated the Marines' position in their hearts. What a pity." Konan finished with a sigh.
"Do you want to run NOW? You won't escape here today!" Garp shouted, launching himself from the ice, his iron fists coated in black Armament Haki.
These fists were something even Pirate King Roger couldn't withstand.
Dance of the Shikigami!
However, his fists passed right through Konan's body, which transformed into sheets of paper. Konan's bloodline limit was special; she could create paper out of thin air. After cultivating the Eight Gates Sage Ascension Method, she could even completely transform her own body.
Just like the elementalization of Logia Devil Fruit users.
Moreover, Konan's paper form wasn't afraid of Haki or Seastone, making her practically immune to all physical attacks.
Her only weakness was perhaps fire-based abilities.
And among the fire-based abilities, the two most famous Devil Fruits were the Magma-Magma Fruit and the Flame-Flame Fruit.
Akainu could be said to be Konan's greatest counter, but unfortunately, he was already dead.
As for the Flame-Flame Fruit, that was something Roger left for his son, still kept in that box, who knew when it would even see the light of day again.
"What a hot-tempered person, attacking impatiently before I even finish speaking." Konan reformed, addressing Garp.
After Garp landed, he didn't attack again. He stared gloomily at Konan, pondering how to capture her.
"The incident in the capital, was that a conspiracy of your Ninja Pirate Crew as well?" Sengoku asked.
Although it should have been a question, coming from his mouth, it sounded like a statement.
And as soon as he said this, the members of the three major pirate crews all looked at Konan.
Especially Whitebeard. His conversation with Tsuru was still vivid in his mind. The strangeness of the Ninja Pirate Crew filled him with suspicion.
Seeing this, Konan smiled.
"As expected of Sengoku, the Fleet Admiral known as the Resourceful General. Just one sentence made the three major pirate crews suspect us."
After speaking, Konan glanced around below, and the corners of her mouth curled up even further.
"The incident in the capital was indeed the work of our Ninja Pirate Crew.
"We originally only wanted to bait a few small fish, but we didn't expect Akainu to go there. This forced us to change our plans.
"We intended to use the lives of Akainu and several others to create a war between the Marines and the pirates. Unfortunately, you were more tolerant than we imagined, and in the end, you didn't fight.
"Fortunately, we had a backup plan. We sent those bodies to the World Government's laboratory. This time, you finally showed some backbone and came to this place.
"However, you almost didn't fight again." Konan said, looking helpless.
And these words made the faces of the people below change.
This woman actually admitted it directly!
"So, Vista died at your hands?" Whitebeard spoke, his grip tightening on his bisento. He was suppressing his urge to attack, but his gaze had become dangerous.
"Whether he did or not, I don't know. After all, I didn't personally participate in that incident. You'll have to ask Ranzuki about that." Konan said indifferently, without any concern that revealing this secret would cause huge trouble.
"Do you know why I'm telling you all this without reservation? After all, admitting this will make the Ninja Pirate Crew and the three major pirate crews become mortal enemies, and it will be difficult to eliminate this hatred in the future."
"Why?" Indeed, many people were puzzled, not understanding why this woman would admit to such a thing.
After all, even though they were already speculating, there was no evidence to prove that the Ninja Pirate Crew was behind everything.
Then they heard Konan speak, her tone gradually becoming serious.
"Because, even if I don't tell you, after today, the Ninja Pirate Crew and you will have irreconcilable hatred." After saying that, the smile on Konan's lips disappeared.
"I said earlier that the goal of the Ninja Pirate Crew is to pursue peace and freedom. This is a revolution, and the process of revolution inevitably involves sacrifice.
"I'm sorry, but you will be the ones to be sacrificed.
"Although it's a bit of a pity that the people from the World Government didn't come, it doesn't matter.
"After dealing with you, this world will be completely divided.
"I bet you must be wondering why I can speak with such grandiosity.
"Because, as the instigator of this war, as one of the masterminds behind this conspiracy, how could I not have a final trump card?
"So, please enjoy...the final...explosion."
As Konan spoke, her words made people increasingly uneasy. When she uttered the last sentence, everyone's hearts tightened.
Some still wanted to ask questions, but it was too late. The moment Konan finished her last sentence, she soared into the sky.
At the same time, everything beneath everyone's feet changed.
"This is...paper?!" Someone exclaimed in disbelief as the ice beneath their feet suddenly cracked, the sea split open, and everyone began to fall.
Of course, not everyone. For example, Kizaru could fly into the sky using the power of light, and Aokiji could use the power of ice to stabilize himself.
There were also other strong individuals, Devil Fruit users, who used various means to prevent themselves from falling.
But in this world, there were still more people without special abilities. Numerous Marines and pirates screamed as they plunged into the abyssal rift that had formed.
Then…
Paper Person of God!
Boom!!!!!!
The explosion resounded.
How powerful was the explosion formed by hundreds of billions of exploding tags?
Even if they didn't explode at the same time, even if each exploding tag's explosion wasn't that strong.
But the simultaneous explosion of such a massive number of exploding tags was enough to kill 90% of the people present.
Perhaps even more than 90%. Those who could survive such an explosion were very few.
Konan didn't care anyway. She hadn't intended to kill everyone present. Killing 90% of the people present was already enough.
