Chapter 041: Monster of Monsters

In Wang Bo's view, the conflict between gods had nothing to do with him.

He was only responsible for the fusion of the two worlds and ignored everything else.

Not long ago, he had helped Athena against Poseidon merely to prevent their battle from affecting the fusion of the two worlds.

Now that the battle between the two gods had ended, Wang Bo naturally returned to his restaurant to continue observing the fusion process and promptly address any issues that arose.

So he had no intention of wandering around the One Piece world with Athena.

In the blink of an eye, a week had passed since the battle between Athena and Poseidon.

During this week, Wang Bo found no problems.

It seemed that the battle between the two gods a week ago had not affected the fusion of the two worlds, which relieved Wang Bo.

He resumed his former life, teaching Snow White magic while passing the days leisurely.

Snow White was a quick learner; she soon mastered spells like the Levitation Charm, Summoning Charm, and Repair Charm, and had started learning attack magic.

For example, Fireball, Ice Arrow, and Wind Blade.

These were quite basic spells, but their power was not to be underestimated.

Take Fireball for instance—it was a standard spell known far and wide, and one of the most commonly used spells by mages in fantasy novels.

Moreover, many mages had developed various variations of this Fireball spell.

Things like Fireball, Great Fireball, Blue Fireball, Five Fireballs, Explosive Fireball, Nine Stars in a Row, and so on.

But the temperature of a Fireball was extremely high; a single Fireball could burn a person to charcoal.

If more magical power was input, the temperature of the Fireball increased, and once it reached a certain threshold, not even iron could resist—it would melt into molten iron.

Even vaporizing it on the spot was not a big problem.

Determined to return and take revenge on her stepmother, Snow White studied diligently and soon mastered the Fireball spell. With a casual toss, a ten-meter-tall tree was reduced to ashes in just a few seconds.

Wang Bo couldn't help but marvel—women seeking revenge were truly terrifying.

Meanwhile, as Snow White studied magic assiduously, the changes on the sea grew more pronounced day by day.

Not to mention other things, the area of the sea expanded every day.

But in Wang Bo's view, it wasn't actually the sea area expanding, but the Earth's surface expanding.

The fusion of the two worlds was causing the Earth to develop rapidly.

That was why the sea area was increasing.

This also meant the sea was becoming more dangerous.

At the same time, Wang Bo suddenly noticed that a large island had appeared near Port Royal—an island from the One Piece world.

The fusion of the two worlds had reached a point where they were becoming indistinguishable.

Living in Port Royal, Wang Bo felt that overnight, a large archipelago had appeared nearby.

But in reality, for those living on the large archipelago, they had merely woken up to find a continent beside them.

It was truly incredible.

Wang Bo looked up and saw that the newly appeared large archipelago consisted of islands formed by giant trees, with roots always exposed above the water, so to others, the ground appeared to be roots.

This island was all too familiar, famous in the One Piece world.

Sabaody Archipelago!

This archipelago was also known as the "Island of Failure" and the "Island of Second Chances."

Located near Marine Headquarters, it was formed by the world's largest mangrove tree—the Yarukiman Mangrove—whose roots, always exposed above water, created the Sabaody Archipelago.

The greatest feature of Sabaody Archipelago was the special natural resin secreted by the roots of the Yarukiman Mangrove through respiration; the resin expanded with air to form bubbles that floated into the sky.

Since the bubbles were only suited to the climate of the Yarukiman Mangrove, once they left the climate zone of Sabaody Archipelago, the resin components could not fully exert their power and would burst.

The entire archipelago consisted of 79 trees, each bearing towns and facilities. People called the group of 79 islands the "Sabaody Archipelago."

Because Sabaody Archipelago was not far from Port Royal, the residents of Port Royal soon discovered its existence.

This caused unease among the residents of Port Royal.

On the other hand, the people of Sabaody Archipelago also discovered Port Royal.

By noon, Wang Bo saw a group of pirates speeding toward Port Royal.

Their purpose was simple: to probe the situation of this suddenly appeared Port Royal. And Wang Bo believed that these people were merely pawns.

The real mastermind was still on Sabaody Archipelago.

"Caroline," Wang Bo said softly, and his head maid appeared before him. "Kill all the pirates invading here. Go."

Caroline nodded. "As you command, my master."

The next second, Caroline vanished.

Then, huge explosions sounded from the sea not far away. One pirate ship after another exploded, and none of the pirates aboard survived—all perished.

Even their souls did not escape; Caroline devoured them all.

Meanwhile, at the port of Sabaody Archipelago, an old man with glasses watched the explosions on the sea and couldn't help but whistle.

"Scary, scary. I never expected that place to appear near Sabaody Archipelago. What is happening to this world?" he muttered to himself.

"From your tone, it seems you know that place, Rayleigh."

A young woman with short hair, wearing a shirt with a spider pattern, stood beside Rayleigh and asked while taking a puff of her cigarette.

Rayleigh nodded. "Ah, that is the dwelling place of a monster."

The young woman was startled, her face showing disbelief, but she quickly calmed down and probed, "A monster that even a monster like you would call a monster—what kind of monster is that?"

Rayleigh said, "Probably a monster more terrifying than Roger."

Rayleigh touched his arm, involuntarily recalling the man in that restaurant who had defeated him with a flick of his finger—a monster whose power surpassed his imagination.

The young woman exhaled a smoke ring, calming the violent tremor in her heart, and couldn't help but sigh, "What will this world become?"

Rayleigh smiled bitterly. "I want to know that answer too."

"So it's Port Royal. It seems the fusion of the two worlds is progressing smoothly." Just then, a voice came from beside the two, drawing their attention.
