Chapter 59: The Forest's Invasion — The Wano Incident
The golden screen pulsed, the neon green "Future" watermark swirling into a dark, toxic emerald. The serene, traditional music of Wano Country—shamisen and flutes—was suddenly drowned out by the sound of rapid, uncontrolled growth.
The scene opened on the flower capital of Wano. The war against Kaido was over, the sky was clear, and the people were celebrating. But on the horizon, a single figure was walking toward the capital. He wasn't sailing; he was flying through the air by spinning a giant flower on his back like a propeller.
It was Admiral Ryokugyu. He looked older now, his "Justice" coat fluttering in the wind. Below him, the scabbards—the remnants of Oden's legendary samurai—stood ready to defend their land.
The Terror of the Mori Mori no Mi
"This land is unaffiliated with the World Government," Aramaki's voice boomed from the screen, chilling the hearts of everyone in the Sabaody timeline. "That means you have no rights. You aren't 'people'—you're just obstacles. If I have to kill thousands of you to get to Straw Hat Luffy's head, I'll do it with a smile."
He landed, and the ground beneath his feet didn't just grow grass—it exploded into a literal forest of death.
The world watched in stunned silence as the Admiral fought the scabbards. He didn't use a sword. He simply stood there as his fingers elongated into sharp, wooden spears. Every time a samurai struck him, he simply regrew. He was an immortal, parasitic jungle. He pierced the thick skin of Queen and King—the fallen All-Stars—and drained them until they were nothing but withered husks.
> [Sengoku]: "He's attacking a country that just found peace?! Without orders?! Sakazuki... what have you turned the Navy into? This isn't a peacekeeping force; this is an extermination squad!"
> [Akainu]: "He is doing what must be done, Sengoku! Wano is a lawless zone. If the World Government does not claim it, the pirates will. Aramaki is simply clearing the weeds before they can grow again."
> [Kuzan (Aokiji)]: "Arara... he's quite the fanatic, isn't he? He's obsessed with Akainu's 'Absolute Justice.' It's a bit much, even for an Admiral. Taking down King and Queen like they were nothing... he's a monster."
> [Donquixote Doflamingo]: "Fuffuffuffu! LOOK AT THE SAMURAI! They fought a Dragon only to be eaten by a Tree! The World Government waited until the pirates were exhausted, then sent in the gardener to harvest the leftovers! Despicable... I love it!"
> [Kaido]: "WORORORO! Linlin, look at this brat! He thinks he can walk into my territory because I'm gone? If I were there, I'd turn his forest into charcoal!"
>
In the clearing, Nami gripped her staff, her knuckles white. She looked at Luffy, who was still stumbling around due to the directionless curse.
"Luffy... that guy is coming for you," Nami whispered. "He doesn't care about the people. He just wants your head to please Akainu. We aren't ready for this. We aren't ready for an Admiral who can eat an entire army alone."
"Don't worry Nami our Captain will be King of the Pirate and I guess we already beat two Yanko in future screen so a Admiral is not a big problem. We can hundle that much." Zoro said. Robin added," And don't forget system already announce Sanji and Zoro as the wing of Future Pirate King that's mean even system acknowledged Luffy as Pirate King. Do you think Pirate King and his crew can't even beat a Forest Admiral?"
> [Trafalgar Law]: "That guy using the 'World' as his fuel. As long as there is ground to stand on, he has infinite energy. We can't fight him in a war of attrition. We'd be drained dry before we could even touch his real body."
> [Eustass Kid]: "Let him come! I've seen how his roots work now. If he tries to drain me, I'll use my magnetism to rip the iron out of the very soil he's growing in! I'm not fertilizer for some Marine's garden!"
>
On the screen, Aramaki was about to unleash a massive, forest-wide strike against the exhausted Wano survivors when he suddenly froze. His eyes widened, and a bead of sweat rolled down his face.
A massive, overwhelming wave of Conqueror's Haki—black lightning that split the sky—hit him from miles away.
"The Red-Haired Pirates...?" Aramaki hissed, his wooden body trembling. "They're nearby?! Damn it... I'm not ready to take on a Yonko crew by myself."
The screen blurred, the green light being pushed back by a fierce, red aura.

Note:
I am not earning anything from this novel. I am still writing just because of two or three regular readers. But it's also hurt when after that much hard work webnovel reject the contract. Anyway today I am going to publish a new book.
Football: The Last Kings' Legacy, Reclaiming the Golden Era.
Synopsis:
"They say the era of magic is dead. They say football has become a game of machines, data, and endless running. But they've forgotten how a single feint could stop time."
In the narrow, muddy lanes of Keraniganj, 20-year-old Rimon—a "Lazy Genius" from the English Department of Bangladesh University—has buried his dreams. After a soul-crushing betrayal at Shia Mosjid and the weight of a broken national football system, he plays only for himself.
Everything changes when he meets Mahima—a love so deep and obsessive that it becomes his only reason to fight.
Suddenly, a voice awakens. Not a robot, but a snarky, poetic "Eternal Commentator" guarding The Last Kings' Legacy. It's a repository of the "Lost Arts"—the vision of Messi, the drive of Ronaldo, the flair of Neymar, and the ghost-like precision of Ozil.
But the System has a condition: Pure Art over Metrics.
From the traffic jams of Dhaka to the grass of the Bernabéu, Rimon must navigate a world of corrupt officials, toxic rivals, and a brotherhood with his childhood friend. Side-by-side with real-world legends Rimon isn't just playing for a trophy—he's lifting 170 million people on his back to prove that the Golden Era isn't over. It's just waiting for a new King.
