The Revolutionary Army, led by Monkey D. Dragon, aims to overthrow the World Government's unjust rule and the Celestial Dragons' oppressive dominance.
Their operations are clandestine, known only to a select few; however, their leader, "Revolutionary" Monkey D. Dragon, is infamous, considered by the government to be the "world's most dangerous criminal."
The Revolutionary Army possesses a formidable intelligence network, capable of gathering information from across the globe, suggesting the possibility of internal informants within the Marines.
Whenever Ryuya's forces reached the Revolutionaries' location, Dragon had already vanished with his army. Ryuya had his suspicions.
In Marineford, Ryuya stood atop the highest point, observing the Marines training below. Many noticed him, curious about his intentions.
They looked up as Ryuya spread his arms, activating his Devil Fruit to its fullest extent.
Ryuya's Bijo Bijo no Mi manifested countless illusory creations that soared through the air, spreading across the sea—the pinnacle of his Devil Fruit abilities.
Those who witnessed this were stunned.
"That's incredible!"
"The Fleet Admiral's power is overwhelming!"
"With the Fleet Admiral's leadership, peace will return to the sea!"
The Marines expressed their faith in Ryuya.
The Gorosei and Celestial Dragons, initially viewing Ryuya as a threat, were surprised by his proactive approach.
It seemed he was genuinely suppressing the sea's power for the Marines' benefit.
But was that truly the case?
Ryuya soon discovered Dragon's presence on an island near Mary Geoise—the safest place being the most dangerous.
Hiding near Marineford demonstrated Dragon's audacity.
Ryuya smirked, vanishing and appearing on a prepared warship.
He personally led the fleet towards Dragon, knowing that even with Dragon's speed and informants, they couldn't match the speed of a Fleet Admiral-class warship.
"Full speed ahead!" ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel•fire.net
With his elite forces, Ryuya sped towards the island.
Dragon received the news, but it was too late to escape.
Their only option was to fight.
The Revolutionaries prepared for battle with astonishing speed.
A lookout spotted Ryuya's fleet.
"Leader, we've spotted a Fleet Admiral-class warship. It's likely Admiral Ryuya himself."
The Revolutionaries were shocked.
"Why would Admiral Ryuya lead the charge personally?"
"This guy plays by his own rules!"
"Damn it, Leader, let's fight to the death!"
Dragon was silent. His back injury hadn't healed.
Ryuya alone could crush them.
The pressure was immense.
Suddenly, a dark figure appeared beside Dragon—Zero, the Dawn Birds' leader.
This added to Dragon's despair.
He was trapped.
Zero spoke, "Dragon, I offer you a choice. Join the Dawn Birds, and I'll save you. Refuse, and I'll join forces with the new Fleet Admiral against you."
The Revolutionaries were troubled.
"Leader, what should we do?"
Many suspected defeat, but they still sought Dragon's guidance.
Dragon felt a profound sense of dejection. He'd founded the Revolutionary Army to overthrow the World Government and the Celestial Dragons, but things had taken an unexpected turn.
Dragon looked at Zero. "Zero, can I trust you?"
"Rest assured, my goal is world peace."
Dragon declared, "Leader, Dragon is at your command!"
The Revolutionaries were shocked. They hadn't expected Dragon to accept Zero's offer.
On the flagship, Ryuya knew he'd succeeded; this was merely a performance for his witnesses.
Ryuya, using Geppo, ascended into the sky, using a amplified Den Den Mushi.
"You're surrounded. Surrender, or die!"
Ryuya's aura exploded outwards, the sky darkening with storm clouds and flashing lightning, mimicking a roaring thunder dragon.
Dragon and his forces looked at Zero, unsure if this was Ryuya's power or Zero's.
Dragon said, "Leader, Fleet Admiral Ryuya's power is immense. I've heard of your battles, which ended in stalemates. This time…"
Zero offered reassurance, then unleashed a spiritual pressure akin to Conqueror's Haki, overwhelming the Revolutionaries.
Many knelt before Ryuya.
They'd experienced Conqueror's Haki before—even Shanks'—but this was far stronger.
Ryuya, unfazed by their awe, activated his talisman's power, raising Zero to his level.
They exchanged glances.
Ryuya extended a finger, unleashing a devastating sword storm.
They'd never felt such raw power.
Zero, however, calmly clenched his fists, shattering the space around him.
Dragon's eyes widened; this power was familiar. Many recognized it.
"Impossible! That's Whitebeard's power!"
"Why does the Dawn Birds' leader have Whitebeard's power?"
"Unbelievable!"
They were shocked.
Zero had previously displayed abilities similar to Shiki's; now, Whitebeard's.
Even if Ryuya's power appeared next, it wouldn't be surprising.
This was all part of Ryuya's plan.
They stared at each other.
Zero punched forward, shattering space with a visible crack, destabilizing the area.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Zero's punch shattered the sword storm, but the resulting quake was neutralized…
