128 Chapter 126 : Usopp, Saviour?

["Fire Fist!!!"]

[In that instant, flames erupted from Sabo's hand!]

[Gathering into a colossal pillar of fire, charging straight ahead!]

[Not only were Doflamingo family elites and Diamante scorched directly, the immense power...]

[It tore through the entire underground, exposing the concealed trading ground beneath Dressrosa!]

[Observing this, Sabo chuckled...]

[His visit to Dressrosa wasn't solely to seize the Flame-Flame Fruit this time.]

[There was another purpose—to obliterate Doflamingo's illicit operations with the Revolutionary Army's resolve...]

"Fire... Fist!"

In the Water 7, Luffy sat on a pillar, staring in astonishment at the scene.

In this moment, he was once again halted...

"It's Ace's Fire Fist."

Finally recovering from the shock of Sabo being alive, he also entertained the ominous thought of Ace potentially facing death.

Despite Luffy's usual goofy demeanor, he wasn't foolish.

He knew well that a Devil Fruit wouldn't reappear unless its host perished.

As time passed and people changed, it became more challenging to witness... Ace was truly gone!

Both Sabo and Ace held immense significance in Luffy's heart!

While Sabo's survival brought joy, the prospect of Ace's demise invoked a solemn determination.

"I won't allow it!"

Wiping away his tears, Luffy's expression became more resolute than ever.

"No matter who causes Ace's death in the future, that's just the future!"

"Now that I know, I won't let it happen."

"I'll strive to become stronger!"

"Ace won't die!"

In this moment, Luffy made a steadfast decision to prevent this looming tragedy at any cost.

He refused to witness his brother's demise before his eyes...

[Meanwhile...]

[The colossal Hajrudin and a band of warriors, now reverted from toys to humans, reached the underground passage.]

[Here, they discovered the unconscious Usopp!]

[Numerous villains lay defeated on the ground...]

[Long before, the voice of the Den Den Mushi had spread through nearly half the kingdom!]

[Thus, Hajrudin and the others were already informed before returning to their human forms...]

[It was Usopp's victory over Sugar that enabled them to shed their toy forms and regain their humanity!]

"He's a hero!!!"

[None understood better than them the strength of Sugar and the Doflamingo family elites!]

[Even though Usopp vanquished Sugar, other elites remained!]

[Fearing for the safety of their benefactor, Hajrudin and the others wasted no time!]

[Upon recovery, they hurried to the scene...]

[True to their expectations, Usopp lay unconscious...]

[As a giant, Hajrudin walked over, lifting Usopp's arm with both hands, and raised him above his head!]

[Addressing the others behind him, he spoke with utmost seriousness!]

"He saved us, the one who restored us as human!"

"He is our hero!"

As soon as these words were uttered, the crowd erupted in cheers!

I could see their intense emotions as they repeatedly shouted Usopp's name.

Even though, at this moment, Usopp's face was covered in blood...

In their eyes, he was nothing short of a hero!

Coincidentally, at that very moment, Sabo consumed the Flame-Flame Fruit, causing a fiery fist to open up the underground passage!

And at this moment...

Sunlight from the sky penetrated through the ground, illuminating Usopp, who was being lifted up!

The vibrant sunlight cast a rainbow of colors on his body, creating the illusion that he was an angel!

It was as if he had been sent by heaven to rescue everyone!

Everyone stood in awe...

Including Hajrudin, who was holding him!

In the eyes of the onlookers, this resembled the posture of a legendary savior!

Usopp was not just a hero; he was a savior!

The cascade of sunlight felt nothing short of providence!

"This is a great man!"

Many people looked extremely excited, some were crying, others were in shock...

They were all shouting at Usopp!

"Savior, you are the Savior!"

However, at Usopp's moment of triumph, things were almost at their end.

He had been severely beaten by the Doflamingo family executives.

Later, he was force-fed the ball meant for the Sugar, and all the chili peppers turned out to be secretly crafted pills!

He had long been tortured into a delirium...

Covered in extreme pain, being lifted into the sky by Hajrudin was beyond uncomfortable!

Usopp rolled his eyes, subconsciously trying to say something...

He wanted Hajrudin to put him down because being lifted hurt so much!

But at this moment, he couldn't utter a word; he could only mouth them silently...

When everyone below witnessed this scene, they were also stunned!

Although they couldn't hear the sound, they tried to interpret it themselves...

Finally, a clever individual stood up and shouted loudly!

"The Savior is saying, 'I will lead you to the right path!'"

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly understood!

Did he really say that!?

Suddenly, everyone cried again, their excitement reaching its peak!

He truly was the savior!

Even in his beaten and comatose state, he still thought of leading his group!

This was a hero who could move people to tears!

Suddenly, in the underground passage, many giants and strong individuals, including Hajrudin...

All of them bowed to Usopp, his face covered in blood, eyes rolled back!

The moment this image appeared, viewers who knew the truth behind everything and were watching the live broadcast had perplexed expressions.

This was truly... an indescribable event!

At this moment, whether it was the revolutionary army, the pirate crew, or the navy headquarters...

Everyone was left speechless.

Even Luffy, Zoro, Nami, and others watching the broadcast in the Water 7 had the same reaction.

The individual who spoke first and 'guessed' what Usopp intended to say—what a little genius, simply invincible...

As everyone bowed down, Usopp was about to burp for real...

Because amidst Hajrudin's kneeling, his body was still shaking, causing the lifted Usopp to be tossed and flung about...

This pain... it was doubled in an instant!

Usopp, in his delirium, couldn't speak.

Otherwise, he would probably have scolded everyone on the spot, suspecting that these people were attempting to murder him!

His entire body was in excruciating pain, and he just wanted to lie quietly on the ground and rest...

Why were they lifting him up one by one and throwing him around...

And bowing down to him!

What did it all mean?

When numerous onlookers witnessed this, laughter and tears mingled...

At this moment, their sentiments towards Usopp were torn between amusement and sympathy.

You claim he's in pain, but he clearly exerted no effort—it was just a matter of frightening Sugar.

The rescue was purely coincidental, yet everyone deemed him a grand hero, gaining numerous admirers for no apparent reason.

Don't be disheartened...

He's quite pitiable at the moment, enduring such misery while being tossed around by this group of people.

It's truly tough...

[Just as everyone bowed to Usopp, lamenting his indomitable spirit!]]

[Sabo and Koala also leaped through the ring-pierced gap...]

[They paid no mind to the group from Hajrudin and dashed directly toward the underground factory through the subterranean passage. ]]

[Soon...]

[Sabo reunited with Haku, a comrade from the Revolutionary Army and a participant in the competition. ]

[Accompanied by Camp Becca, Robin, and Bartolomeo!]]

[At this juncture, Sabo disclosed the true purpose of their mission—to obliterate Doflamingo's underground factory, their primary objective here! ]

[Over the years, Doflamingo utilized the power of the Seven Warlords to conceal his illicit operations in Dressrosa. ]]

[Simultaneously, he dispatched weapons worldwide, inciting numerous conflicts and inflicting harm upon civilians globally! ]

[Hence, as members of the Revolutionary Army, Sabo and others naturally couldn't stand idly by! ]

[Now, they stand here...]

[Dismantling all of Doflamingo's illicit enterprises and putting an end to the perpetuation of war!]]

[In Dressrosa, an increasing number of people yearned to overthrow Doflamingo! ]

[It's as if everything is converging for the better...]

[This infuriated Doflamingo within the palace, prompting him to abandon all pretenses! ]

[He grabbed the Den Den Mushi, allowing his voice to resonate throughout every corner of Dressrosa...]

["Now that you all know the truth, aware of my deeds over the years! "]

"Naturally, I won't let you off the hook, but I won't eliminate everyone directly. "]

"We... Let's play a game! "]

["Do you see the birdcage outside? It will gradually constrict under my control!"] "]

"I'll make you witness everything around you being sliced to pieces."

"Thus, for the remaining days, live in fear of impending death! "]

[However, if you wish to halt the birdcage, there's no way..."]

["The first option: kill me!"] "]

["The second option:... Kill the Straw Hats! "]
