One Piece: Surrounded at Marineford? Just kidding!

Chapter 153: Saving Shanks' Mother!

The moment the words left his mouth, the figure standing atop the mountain vanished.

The figure of the dragon carrying two babies, running wildly below, quickly disappeared into the end of the smoke.

call out.

call out.

call out.

The CP agents following closely behind moved with the speed of ghosts, their eyes fixed only on their mission targets—the escaped navy officer and the two infants with noble bloodlines.

A series of white figures swept past Shanks' mother, the gusts of wind they created ruffling her disheveled hair, but not a single person looked down at her.

There was no emotion in their eyes.

There was no pity, no hesitation; they had no regard for human beings.

It was as if the person lying in the pool of blood was not just a life.

It was just a pesky rock.

They quickly chased after the direction in which the dragon had disappeared.

The corner instantly returned to deathly silence.

Only one woman remained, lying in a pool of mud and blood.

Her life was slowly fading away.

The light in the pupils faded.

Consciousness plunged into complete darkness.

But a smile of utter satisfaction graced her lips.

That was the peace that emanated from the depths of a mother's soul after she had given her life to save her child.

This is enough.

She died without regret.

Just then.

The space around her was completely undisturbed.

Chen Ye's figure appeared beside her silently.

He lowered his head.

The woman's disheveled reflection was seen in the golden pupils.

The luxurious clothes had been torn to shreds.

Blood and mud mingled together, defiling her body.

But that satisfied smile couldn't be hidden.

His gaze finally settled.

It stopped on that pale, paper-white face, yet it wore a smile.

Chen Ye slowly squatted down, his voice very soft, as if he were talking to himself.

"You're a pitiful person too..."

Why did you have to fall in love with anyone?

She just happened to fall in love with that beast, Garin.

There was an indescribable complexity in his voice.

It is pity, it is helplessness, but more than anything, it is a detached indifference that looks down on everything.

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Ye raised his right hand.

Palms facing upwards.

A ball of light appeared in his palm.

The light was not dazzling, nor did it have the intense heat to burn everything.

It was an incredibly warm and gentle golden ball of energy.

It floats and rotates silently.

The emitted light purified the surrounding blood and carnage, even lessening the heavy smell of gunpowder in the air.

This energy sphere contains the purest and most potent life force.

The healing power of the sun god Apollo.

Chen Ye looked at the life essence in his palm, then at the lifeless woman on the ground, and a playful look reappeared on his face.

"Fine."

"Since I'm in a good mood today, I'll give you, this poor woman, and the future Yonko Shanks, a huge surprise."

After saying that, he flicked his finger.

The movement was as casual as flicking off a speck of dust.

The golden orb of light silently and gently sank into the woman's cold chest.

The next moment, a miracle occurred.

boom.

A huge golden cocoon of light suddenly expanded out of her body, enveloping her along with the blood and dirt beneath her.

On the surface of the cocoon of light flowed countless ancient runes, visible to the naked eye and composed of pure life energy. These runes moved slowly like living things, each flash carrying a sacred aura of creation.

Through the translucent golden cocoon, one can see a scene that defies common sense unfolding inside.

The knife wounds were clearly visible.

Bones that have been cruelly broken.

Even the shattered internal organs...

At this moment, it is healing and reshaping at an astonishing speed.

The broken bones made a soft cracking sound, automatically reconnecting and becoming even stronger.

The damaged flesh and tissue were rapidly repaired under the nourishment of the sun god's power, and in the blink of an eye, it was completely restored without leaving a single scar.

"Thump!"

A deep, muffled heartbeat, like the beating of a drum.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

My heartbeat is getting faster and faster, and I'm gradually returning to normal.

Her vital signs were forcibly pulled back from the abyss of death by a powerful force and stabilized in their healthiest state.

Everything happened in just a few breaths.

Although the injury has been slowly healing!

The person is still in a deep coma.

But without a doubt, she had been pulled back from the brink of death by Chenye's power.

Chen Ye stood up, looked at his masterpiece, and stroked his chin.

"They did manage to save her..."

He was talking to himself.

"But the problem is, where should we put it?"

We can't just leave a living person on the battlefield like that.

When those CP0 lunatics or those Navy hotheads attack, one shell will send her back.

Wouldn't all my efforts have been wasted?

Chen Ye raised an eyebrow and mentally called upon the system.

"System, I need to inquire about a business."

"Could you temporarily store this thing in the system space?"

【Ding! 】

The system's cold voice sounded precisely on time.

[Permissions verified...]

[Confirmation complete.]

[Answer to host: Yes. The system space can store all non-hostile life forms without any resistance.]

"Done."

Chen Ye snapped his fingers, and the troubles on his face vanished.

He casually waved his hand at the enormous golden cocoon of light.

Swish.

An unbelievable scene unfolded.

The enormous cocoon of light, radiating divine brilliance, along with the woman inside, vanished without a trace with a wave of the hand.

There was no spatial tear.

There are no energy fluctuations.

It just vanished into thin air.

Chen Ye's consciousness sank into the system space.

It was an endless, pure nothingness.

There is no up, down, left, or right; there is no passage of time.

The enormous golden cocoon of light floated silently in the center of this void, radiating a soft glow, becoming the only existence in this space.

Chen Ye's consciousness stood before the cocoon of light, looking at the sleeping woman inside, and left behind a promise that only he could hear.

"Let's stay here for now."

"After I've dealt with all the mess in God Valley, I'll take you to... a place you should go."

That place is where a mother can watch her child grow up.

After saying that, his consciousness exited the system space.

Chen Ye slowly straightened up and straightened his spotless collar.

After doing all this, he looked up again.

Those golden eyes pierced through layers of smoke and fire, gazing towards the center of the Valley of the Gods battlefield.

The sounds of fighting were deafening everywhere.

The entire Valley of Gods was filled with the sound of powerful collisions, shaking the heavens and the earth.

"Alright, that's the end of the little incident."

"Next, let's take a look at the main characters of today's grand show."

The smile on his face turned playful again.

"Rocks...Saint Korin...Roger...Garp..."

And Im in the background!

"Please don't let me, the only VIP viewer, get bored."

Before he finished speaking, his figure disappeared in a slight spatial distortion.
