One Piece : Rise of Thunder King

The Celestial Dragons have lived pampered lives for so long that they can't tolerate even the slightest discomfort or disrespect.

This time, Arthur had come here for a short visit.

Although he refers to the Celestial Dragons as "old friends," it's clear they're anything but friendly.

Arthur has had issues with the Celestial Dragons before. It's safe to say his encounters with them have left a lasting impression—not just on him, but also on them.

While most Marines and people around the world treat the Celestial Dragons with fear and reverence, Arthur sees them as nothing more than vile and indecent beings, unworthy of his respect.

The Celestial Dragons themselves know they aren't fit to stand on the same level as Arthur. In the past, when they tried to act superior in his presence, Arthur put them in their place. That lesson is something they'll never forget.

After Arthur, the so-called "plague god," caused chaos on the Sabaody Archipelago, the Celestial Dragons immediately fortified their defenses to prevent him from returning. But Arthur lost interest in tormenting them further; he found it boring and decided his time was better spent enjoying himself elsewhere.

Back when he attacked the Sabaody Archipelago, the one leading the Celestial Dragons' defenses was Imu. Now, Arthur wondered whether Imu would still recognize him.

When Arthur came to the Sabaody Archipelago for a visit, it was Imu who greeted him.

At first, Imu was arrogant and overbearing, acting as if she was untouchable. But the moment she witnessed Arthur's true strength, her attitude changed completely.

Now, as Arthur planned to visit Imu again, he couldn't help but wonder how things would play out this time. His curiosity led him straight to Sabaody Archipelago, traveling there on a thundercloud.

As he approached the island on his thundercloud, the guards stationed there noticed something unusual. In the distance, they saw a cloud floating toward them—and on top of it, a man was sitting calmly.

"Does that figure look familiar to you?" one guard asked his companion. Hearing this, the other guard rubbed his eyes and focused on the cloud. Sure enough, there was someone sitting on it.

The figure on the cloud appeared tall and imposing. At first, one of the guards thought he was imagining things. But when he got a clearer look at the man sitting on the cloud, his expression quickly turned to panic.

"Quick! Inform the army! Everyone needs to come here immediately for support—he's back!" the panicked guard shouted.

His outburst startled the guard next to him, who looked confused and unsure of what was happening.

"Wait, who is this guy? Why are you so nervous? It's just one person floating in—what's the big deal?"

The second guard clearly didn't understand the seriousness of the situation.
