I Became the Strongest Villain in One Piece

Chapter 339: SVOP: Chapter 339

”Roger, full name Gol D. Roger, the only man to conquer the entire Grand Line.”

Considered by the Marines as the ”world’s most dangerous force,” he knew the whereabouts of all the Ancient Weapons.

His strength surpassed the Four Emperors’ level. He could hear all things and was the pinnacle of the previous era.

”Captain Roger?”

Vladimir smiled. ”No, the Captain Roger you know never existed from the beginning.”

”Wh-what?”

Shanks stared blankly. Whether with his naked eyes, Haki, or senses, the person before him was indeed Roger.

His voice, his demeanor – there was no difference, exactly as in his memory.

”Aizen...” Suddenly, Shanks gritted his teeth. ”Illusion? No, it’s not an illusion! Captain Roger, who exactly are you?”

”Too unsightly, Shanks.”

Vladimir smiled. ”There’s another one. You don’t need to hide anymore. You’ve been watching for so long, aren’t you going to show yourself?”

His voice carried outwards, but there was no response.

Shanks’ gaze sharpened, and his Observation Haki immediately spread, instantly covering the entire sea area within his perception.

”Who?!” he asked sharply.

Just then, laughter echoed from the sky.

”Hahaha, I’ve been discovered?” The wind and clouds churned, gradually revealing a figure. ”How nostalgic. To see this face again.”

The newcomer looked at Vladimir, or rather, at Gol D. Roger.

”How did you find me?” the person continued. ”I was very well hidden.”

”It’s very simple.”

Vladimir stood with his hands behind his back, looking up. ”I knew of your existence from the beginning. The reason I didn’t expose you was just to wait for you to let down your guard. Now, your five senses are under my control. Monkey D. Dragon!”

*Chapter 267: Monkey D. Dragon*

”Monkey D. Dragon!”

The D. clan, son of Monkey D. Garp, but this person was not a Marine but the leader of the Revolutionary Army~.

The so-called Revolutionary Army was an armed force advocating for the overthrow of the World Government. Its leader was designated by the World Government as the ”World’s Most Dangerous Criminal.”

Of course, that was in the past. Now, that title belonged to Emperor Vladimir.

At this moment, Monkey D. Dragon floated in mid-air. He wore a dark green coat, and had a red square tattoo on his left cheek. Since his appearance, he had been staring at Vladimir.

”The infamous Phantom Vice-Captain actually knows me. I feel truly honored.”

Infamous? Before today, who knew who Phantom’s Vice-Captain was! The infamous one was ”Phantom”!

Shanks couldn’t help but mutter to himself.

Because of the third party’s presence, the situation suddenly became a stalemate.

Seeing that no one was speaking, Monkey D. Dragon spoke again. ”What kind of ability is this? You can transform into Roger’s appearance. Hmm... let me guess. Based on your earlier words, ’your five senses are under my control,’ it’s a power that deceives the five senses, isn’t it?”

”Hehehehe...”

Vladimir didn’t explain, but chuckled. ”An ambitious person like you, appearing here suddenly, your goal is Pluton’s design blueprints?”

Previously, Vladimir had no interaction with the Revolutionary Army. Now, Monkey D. Dragon was clearly here for him, his purpose self-evident.

”It’s part of the reason.” Dragon’s voice was deep and magnetic. ”Ancient weapons are indeed powerful deterrents, but even with the blueprints, it’s meaningless. My true goal is to find you.”

He paused, then continued. ”I have a dream. I want to overthrow the World Government, change the world’s rules, and establish a harmonious, free, equal, and dream-filled New World.”

Hearing this, Vladimir remained unfazed. ”You’re not fulfilling your dream, but running here to talk to me about this. What’s the point?”

”Aizen, we, the Revolutionary Army, need the power of you at Phantom.” Dragon’s eyes flickered with a strange light, a very strong belief. ”From the moment your Shadow Fiend first assassinated a Celestial Dragon, I have been paying attention to you. All of you are powerful and do as you please, the pirates among pirates. But unlike ordinary pirates, you are not purely evil. Your actions over the years have had a fundamental purpose.”

Devil Fruits!

Anyone who had studied Phantom knew that these ferocious individuals had a terrifying pursuit of Devil Fruits.

As long as they had Devil Fruits, there was nothing they wouldn’t dare to do.

They dared to kill Celestial Dragons, infiltrate Mary Geoise at will, provoke and threaten Four Emperors, and they were completely unrestrained towards the Marines.

”Therefore, we can cooperate.” Dragon finally said. ”You need Devil Fruits, and we need to overthrow the World Government. We both benefit from this alliance.”

Hearing these words, Vladimir was speechless for a long time. ”We do not accept cooperation.”

”Why?” Dragon asked calmly, not in the least bit rushed.

”Because of equality. Your Revolutionary Army does not possess the same status as us at Phantom.”

Vladimir shook his head. ”However, cooperation is not possible, but we can accept employment. The price is Devil Fruits. Depending on the difficulty of the task, the required reward will vary. If you want to kill Celestial Dragons, one Devil Fruit per head. Give me a hundred, and I can go to Mary Geoise and kill all the Celestial Dragons, how about that?”

”Hahahaha...”

Dragon burst into laughter. ”As expected of Phantom. I never doubted your capabilities. However, killing Celestial Dragons has no substantial meaning. World power is held by the Five Elders.”

”The Five Elders?”

Vladimir smiled and pointed a finger.

Instantly, a wisp of black smoke drifted out. In the next moment, it condensed into a completely black figure.

”Shadow Fiend?” Dragon raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself, ”As the intelligence suggested, not human, but not a Devil Fruit user either. Is it a special race?”

Shadow Fiend ignored him, tore through space, and pulled an old man from the Shadow World.

The old man was bound from head to toe, with only his head able to move.

The moment they saw this person, Dragon and Shanks’ expressions changed drastically.

”The Five Elders!?”

They couldn’t help but be shocked.

The Five Elders, who resided in Mary Geoise for years, sat at the pinnacle of world power, the five individuals at the apex.
