The Heaven's Embrace sliced through the turbulent waves of the Sabaody Archipelago, its sleek hull glinting beneath the shimmering sun. The place buzzed with life—a chaotic hive of pirates, bounty hunters, merchants, and those desperate enough to drown their sorrows beneath the veneer of civilization. But beneath its vibrant surface lurked darkness—slavery, oppression, and corruption by the World Nobles.
Vegito's POV
I narrowed my eyes, sensing the heavy air of tension and injustice.
System Notification:Mission: Liberate the slaves of Sabaody, disrupt World Government oppression.Warning: High risk of encounter with Celestial Dragons and Marine Admirals.
A sly grin crossed my face. "Time to crash their party."
I hovered a few feet above the deck, wings unfolding briefly as we prepared to descend. The Heaven's Embrace radiated an aura that made even the most hardened pirates pause.
The Slave Auction — Chains Broken
The first stop was the infamous slave auction houses, where helpless men, women, and children were sold like cattle to the highest bidders. My stomach clenched at the sight of suffering, the cries of the enslaved echoing in my ears.
"Not on my watch," I growled.
In an instant, I unleashed a shockwave of energy that shattered the auction block and sent the oppressors flying. The slaves looked up in awe as their chains dissolved and freedom dawned.
Bell-mère stepped forward, tears in her eyes. "You've done a miracle, Vegito."
Nojiko wrapped her arms around Nami, whispering, "We can finally breathe."
The Celestial Dragon Confrontation — Heaven's Wrath
News of our raid spread like wildfire, drawing the ire of the Celestial Dragons. Two of these arrogant tyrants descended, expecting an easy victory.
But they underestimated me.
With a casual flick of my wrist, the first was sent flying into the air, his extravagant robes torn and dignity shredded.
The second fell before my glare, reduced to trembling and begging.
"Looks like your 'godly' status isn't so divine after all," I taunted, earning a roar of laughter from the crew.
Saint Shalria — From Captive to Slave
Among the captured was a certain Celestial Dragon named Saint Shalria. Instead of delivering him to the Marines, I had other plans.
"Your days of tyranny are over," I said, smirking. "From now on, you serve me."
His pale lips quivered as he was led away, shackled—not as a master, but a prisoner.
The Destruction of Mary Geoise — A Warning Carved in Fire
Rising above the chaos, I took to the skies and unleashed the full might of the Heaven's Embrace. Energy surged from runes etched along the ship's hull, blasting apart half of Mary Geoise, the seat of the World Government's power.
News birds captured the devastation, carrying the footage worldwide.
Crew Reactions — Awe and Excitement
"Vegito, you're insane!" Nami exclaimed, eyes sparkling with excitement.
Bell-mère chuckled, "That's the kind of justice we need."
Perona floated nearby, ghostly grin wide, "I love a little chaos."
Brook added, "Yohohoho! What a magnificent uproar!"
Bounty Updates and World Shock

The Heaven's Embrace was now infamous, the World Government shaken to its core.
Closing Scene — A Family United
As the sun set over Sabaody, the crew gathered on deck, laughter mingling with songs of freedom and hope.
I pulled Nami close, whispering, "We've only just begun."
Her eyes shone with trust and love. The path ahead was dark and uncertain, but together, we would carve out a new dawn.
