I clicked "yes" but was denied entry to Infinite.

"Then die."

Lightning Hunter Shenno slightly raised his right hand and made a grasping motion. Instantly, lightning appeared out of thin air, and Lightning Hunter Shenno hurled it at the councilor, annihilating him in an instant. The latter didn't even have time to glare in terror or let out a last-minute scream.

The councilors were terrified, and those who had secretly contacted the families behind them felt despair. They knew that the councilor would not be patient with their explanations or tolerate them much.

The speaker of parliament is, after all, the speaker of parliament. According to the rules of parliament, if a member of parliament dies, it is a death in vain. The speaker of parliament has the absolute right to decide the life and death of lower-level personnel.

In theory, such a strict system would drive away many people, but the parliament is too large and has too deep a foundation. Even so, countless people still fight tooth and nail to join the parliament. Under the strict system, high welfare and high benefits are naturally accompanied by them.

Following the actions of Hunter Shenno, news of the failed attempt to repair the dungeon world also spread from other major factions.

"Those abnormal rules are like they have a life of their own?"

"It's no wonder the legislator was so furious that he took action when such an absurd viewpoint was put forward."

"Do you think... it might be that Li Wei who gave the rules a soul..." someone boldly put forward his theory.

When this speculation came out, many people fell silent. They subconsciously denied the possibility, but seeing Li Wei's performance in the dungeon world, they dared not be too sure.

This is simply too astonishing. Giving life and consciousness to the rules is something even super gods cannot do. No matter how great an existence is, at most it can create the consciousness of the Heavenly Dao. And this consciousness of the Heavenly Dao can only be said to manage the rules and maintain order, not to generate consciousness from the rules themselves.

Just as the undercurrents on Thousand Spirits Star are gradually rising to the surface, a storm is brewing in the world of One Piece as well.

As the date of the invitation from the Disaster Island drew near, more and more ships arrived at the island. However, those who arrived, seeing the Disaster Island suspended high in the sky and looking at the direction on their compasses, were both amazed by Li Wei's methods and helpless and at a loss. The latter was more common, because if they failed to land on the Disaster Island, they would probably be punished.

"Is this the Island of Calamity?"

How do we get up there?

"Damn it, are they deliberately making things difficult for us so they can take the opportunity to kill us?"

"Don't be silly. If the Cataclysm Island really wanted to wipe us out, they wouldn't need to make us come all this way. With the existence of the Aurora Calamity, they could destroy the entire world."

When the Aurora Calamity was mentioned, everyone showed expressions of fear.

This is a deadly weapon that could threaten the survival of the entire world.

They knew perfectly well that if the Island of Calamity truly intended to wipe them out in one fell swoop, there would be no need for such a fuss.

Just as they were figuring out how to get onto the island of disaster, a loud and authoritative voice came from below their ship.

"This is the territory of the Disaster Island. Please show your invitation, or you will be expelled. If you resist, be prepared to face the devastating attack from the Disaster Island."

"Invitation card?"

Reminded by the voice, all the ships took out the invitations sent by Li Wei's creations.

It's unclear how the owner of the voice confirmed this, but after a while, he spoke again: "There are thirty-one ships on site, thirty of which have invitations. Warning: leave the territory of Disaster Island immediately, or you will be treated as intruders."

Since these ships have been accumulated over a period of time, there are quite a few of them. Some of the earlier ships have been eating, drinking, and relieving themselves on the island for some time now.

Upon hearing this warning sound, none of the nearby ships took action, presumably because they thought the other party couldn't be sure and were trying to get away with it.

The others were also very curious. They had simply taken the invitations out of their bodies, but they hadn't seen any creatures approach them. How did the Cataclysmic Island manage to eliminate them? Did they have invitations? Were the invitations real or fake?

Just as they were thinking about these things, a giant wave formed a huge hand and slammed towards one of the large ships.

However, the giant wave was dissipated by the invisible attack, and sounds came from the ship that had been empty of people, and several people walked out at the same time.

The group looked around warily, on guard against any possible attacks. They hadn't expected that the Island of Calamity would actually have such a way to find them so quickly.

This ship came later. In fact, they originally came here to steal other people's invitations, but unfortunately, they ran into the invitation inspection before they could do so.

They were sent as scouts to investigate the situation, with no intention of causing trouble. They were just really unlucky; they hadn't encountered anyone with an invitation before, or perhaps they had encountered them but hadn't noticed.

Now that they have to face the disaster island head-on, they are considering retreating.

"We meant no offense. Let's leave now and pretend nothing happened, okay?"

One of the reincarnators suggested that he did not believe they could not even escape. As for the Aurora Calamity above their heads, it seemed to have a weakness: it was impossible to inspect it from all angles, whether it was underwater or above the clouds, and it could escape their notice.

PAS: Take a break, I'll start working on it again tomorrow. A plot point suddenly came to mind today.

Yes, your dog is probably going to delay finishing the book longer than the author!

I'll indulge myself a little by updating one more chapter later to prepare for tomorrow's grueling workday. All I need is for the driving instructor not to call me for driving lessons tomorrow...

Chapter 424 One Piece? Why not just make one?

With their intention to retreat already established, they naturally had no intention of fighting; they didn't want to resort to fighting if things could be resolved with words.

But their unwillingness to fight doesn't mean they're afraid.

Just as they finished speaking, a surge occurred on the sea, and all the nearby ships rocked erratically with the waves, seemingly in danger of capsizing at any moment.

Soon, a giant formed from seawater emerged, standing thirty meters tall, holding a trident also formed from seawater.

"I am Poseidon, the third special creation under the command of Lord Calamity, the Ocean Calamity."

"Intruder, you will pay the price for your recklessness."

The group merely sneered upon hearing this.

However, their laughter soon faded, and they had no idea what this self-proclaimed sea god Poseidon had done. By the time they realized what was happening, all the ships with invitations around them had moved far away.

At the same time, a super-giant water sphere rapidly formed on Poseidon's trident, which Poseidon then smashed down.

They would certainly look down on ordinary water spheres, but they could feel the incredibly condensed weight of this water sphere. Any substance, once it reaches a certain level, will undergo a terrifying qualitative change.

The moment they saw the water sphere form, they all sensed the energy within it—a feeling evoked by their long battles.

Instinctively, they immediately used survival measures and quickly moved to the depths of the sea.

They were chosen as vanguards because they all had excellent survival skills. In fact, they were assigned tasks by top forces, cooperated with each other, and chose different roles. Although they did not know in advance how this dungeon would proceed, it did not stop them from discussing various hypothetical solutions.

This time, it's all for the sake of winning and obtaining the legendary inheritance.

The moment they plunged into the depths of the ocean, they finally relaxed. From this position, even with the most comprehensive surveillance coverage from the Aurora Calamity, they would remain undetected.

Just as they were thinking this, suddenly, a pair of enormous eyes opened in front of their escape route. Each pupil was hundreds of meters in size. These eyes stared at them silently, causing them to tremble involuntarily.

"W-what is this?"

To be honest, they had dived into the deep sea for training purposes, but they had never encountered any of the dangerous creatures that the original work mentioned, which lived in the ocean, except for a few sea kings. However, even the largest sea kings they knew in the original work did not seem to have eyes that big.

They didn't pray that the other hadn't noticed them, because their gaze was clearly directed at them. They only hoped that no conflict would occur and that the unknown creature was simply observing them out of curiosity.

Unfortunately, reality did not turn out as he wished.

"Intruder."

Upon hearing that sound, their hearts skipped a beat.

This... is the voice of Poseidon.

"Bury him at the bottom of the ocean."

After they finished speaking, the pressure around these people suddenly increased, constantly compressing their bodies. Upon seeing this, one of them immediately used magic to transfer them to another place.

"I never expected this thing could sense such deep places."

"Named after the sea god Poseidon, it is estimated that the entire area of ​​the Disaster Island is within its territory."

"Fortunately, we moved in time and are now out of the area surrounding Disaster Island. We have finally escaped a disaster."

Just as they were thinking this, those eyes appeared again in front of them...

"Intruders shall be punished."

"How can it be?!"

They were all immediately shocked, and a terrible guess appeared in their minds at the same time.

This monster... could it be... the ruler of all the oceans in the One Piece world?!

The moment they had this thought, their consciousness was plunged into darkness. Poseidon gave them no chance to escape and killed them instantly.

Soon, their bodies were nailed by Poseidon to a monument made of seawater as punishment for the invaders. Besides them, there were already many other corpses on it, all of which were invaders executed by Poseidon.

As a hot topic of discussion, the island of natural disasters attracts attention to all its actions, and as a result, these news items are reported in the news and become widely known.

……

A tavern in a small town—

Luffy and his crew arrived here and ordered a few drinks.

At that moment, a man wearing a blue cape was drinking beer and laughing loudly.

"What One Piece? These days, there are actually people who believe in the existence of One Piece? It's ridiculous, laughable, hahaha..."

"These days, how many people go out to sea to find One Piece?"

Upon hearing this, the others around immediately burst into laughter and echoed his sentiments.

"Bellamy is absolutely right!"

Luffy, who was standing nearby, retorted unhappily, "One Piece definitely exists! I'm going to find One Piece and become the Pirate King!"

Bellamy glanced at Luffy disdainfully and sneered, "Did you hear that? This kid actually said he's going to become the Pirate King. He's so arrogant!"

"Kid, judging by your appearance, do you have a bounty on your head from the Navy?" Bellamy said, laughing again. "You brat, you think playing house makes you a pirate?"

"Of course I have a bounty on my head!"

Luffy replied angrily, but he didn't take any drastic action for the time being.

"Oh? How much? Is it ten million? Or a million?" Bellamy continued his taunts.

"Thirty million." Luffy pouted unhappily.

"Hmm? You little brat have thirty million?" Bellamy looked Luffy up and down as if he were examining something new and interesting.

"And how much bounty do you have?" Luffy retorted.

"Listen up, you brat, I'm Bellamy, the hunting dog with a bounty of fifty million."

Bellamy licked his lips, a smug look on his face: "A heavyweight newcomer worth fifty million!"

"Hahahaha... Boss Bellamy, stop scaring this kid. I think his friends are about to pee their pants, hahaha..."

Upon hearing these words, Zoro clicked his tongue and glared at Bellamy, while Nami also looked displeased.

"Kid, I advise you to go home and stop playing this childish game."

"Did you hear that? Stop daydreaming."

"One Piece exists!"

"An annoying brat."

Just as Bellamy was about to teach Luffy a lesson, a voice came from the doorway.

"I heard you wanted to teach my little brother a lesson?"

A young man with messy, unkempt hair slowly walked in from the doorway.

"who are you?"

"His older brother."

"Oh? You managed to raise such a foolish younger brother. It seems you, as the older brother, are also delusional about One Piece?"

The young man with the messy hair said calmly, "I don't know if One Piece exists, but that doesn't matter. Even if it doesn't, I can just make one for him."

Make one?

Everyone burst into laughter when they heard this, especially Bellamy, who almost choked from laughing.

PAS: Plans never go as expected. I was planning to work overtime, but something went wrong with my job application. If I don't get it sorted out, I'll be held responsible. And after we finished discussing that, the Wi-Fi crashed. I couldn't get it working no matter what I did, and I barely managed to connect to my phone's hotspot.

Anyone here good at network-related issues? Even 360's network emergency repair didn't fix it...

Chapter 425 Landing on Disaster Island

"You're really good at talking nonsense. Lying to this extent, creating One Piece? Only the Pirate King, Gol D. Roger, could say such a big thing!"

Bellamy bluntly stated that, in his opinion, even if Roger had proposed One Piece, it would probably just be a hoax.

“Brother D. Roger, although I’ve never met him, but…” the young man with the messy hair, Li Wei, replied, “I believe that the One Piece I make will be better than his.”

In other words, you believe One Piece really exists?

"Your imagination is far too limited by your abilities. In your eyes, One Piece is something so unattainable and out of reach?"
