Dragon complicatedly carefully put away the document, his mind was in a mess.
He never thought that the reincarnations of the Sun God and the Sea God had already appeared.
Even, the fruit of the Sea God had already settled, already eaten by Rosse.
At this time, Dragon attributed the powerful strength displayed by Rosse all to the prophecy.
But it was precisely because of this, he felt incomparably despairing.
Shanks might be the reincarnation of the Sun God Nika, but Shanks has not eaten the fruit yet, this shows that he has not officially combined, can only be counted as half a reincarnation.
But on the other side, the deity of the World Government had already taken the lead, and had already completely grown up.
Even he, dare not say that he could steadily win against the current Golden Lion.
But on that battlefield, Rosse was suppressing Golden Lion in the sky, this already speaks volumes.
Sea God suppressing Sky God in the sky, no matter how one looks at it, the gap is clear.
Such level of a Child of Prophecy, fundamentally is not something mortals like them can compare to, growing too fast, and once formed, the strength is too strong.
For a moment, in Dragon's heart, actually arose a trace of powerlessness.
He had not doubted that this information might be fake, all smoke bombs thrown out by Rosse.
But the fact is, Rosse is not a prophet, impossible to predict he would come looking for literature, so how could he have prepared this information in advance?
Besides, if Rosse is not the reincarnation of the Sea God, then how to explain his strength?
At Rosse's age, even Whitebeard and Roger, it was simply impossible to have such strength.
Only the legendary Child of Fate and Child of Prophecy could possess monster-like strength at this age.
"Hu...", Dragon took a deep breath, trying hard to calm his emotions, 'The urgent task is to let more people know this information, only when more people know this matter, Nika's reincarnation will have more space to grow.'
'Must let the sea know, the deity is only Rosse alone, not the World Government. If we can also sow discord between the two, then it will be even more perfect.' [T/N: See, that's exactly what Rosse wants.]
Dragon immediately thought of a plan.
Spreading this matter, not only can pull the World Government down from the altar, but can also play a role of sowing discord.
After all, among the Celestial Dragons there are 19 families in total, only one of them is a god, the other 18 families are all false gods, this no matter what would cause turmoil.
Not to mention, the information he obtained was from the residence of the Jaygarcia family, after exposing this matter, who knows how much more others will think.
'As long as the World Government is thrown into chaos, we still have a chance,' Dragon had already made a decision in his heart.
Whether in the past or now, he had always been a firm supporter of the prophecy.
Now that he knew more information, he even more felt that he must act according to the prophecy.
He even felt that all the efforts he had made, were within the calculations of the prophecy.
If it were someone else, they would definitely be extremely confused about their life, thinking that a life where everything is arranged, has no meaning at all.
But Dragon did not think so.
Being able to contribute to the prophecy, made him full of motivation.
Dragon's gaze swept over the other documents in the room, completely immersed in harvesting information.
Taking advantage of the battle still going on over there, he still had some time for now.

[Battlefield in the Sky]
Clang!
The Sea God Trident and two famous swords crossed in the air, a wave of golden and blue ripples spread out in all directions.
"Golden Lion, your swords are duller than before," In midair, Rosse swung the Sea God Trident in his hand, twirled a flourish with the trident, and pointed the trident head toward the direction of the Golden Lion.
Fighting with the Golden Lion was still quite satisfying.
It's just a pity, after fighting at full strength for only about 20 minutes, the Golden Lion was already showing signs of insufficient stamina.
The physical defects still had too great an impact on Golden Lion's stamina.
"Tch, don't talk big, brat, talk again after you've injured me!", Golden Lion stood in the air, two famous swords aimed at Rosse, eyes filled with deep unwillingness.
He indeed had reason to be unwilling.
Rosse was a very good opponent.
If it were during his prime, he could definitely fight Rosse for ten days and nights, letting Rosse know that even if they are old, they are not people that the younger generation can overthrow.
But dragging this broken body, really made him feel powerless.
The ship's rudder on his head was pressing on his nerves, making it impossible for him to unleash Conqueror's Coating.
And in order to deal with Rosse's Conqueror's Coating attacks, he had to consume more Armament Haki and stamina, which was undoubtedly another burden on his already broken body.
'Damn it, after this fight, I must find a way to heal,' Golden Lion cursed secretly in his heart, his gaze remained firmly locked on Rosse.
If it were in the past, after Roger died, he had no more desires.
But now it's different.
He truly saw the hope of overthrowing the World Government.
If one Five Elders can be killed, then two, three, even all can be killed.
If he could restore his peak strength, he alone could fight three Five Elders for a short time without falling behind.
Plus Rayleigh and others assisting, this battle could be much easier.
'What a pity...'
Golden Lion took a deep breath, knowing that continuing to fight held no more meaning.
He was the Lion King, but not a reckless Lion King, rather a cunning Lion King.
It was time to retreat.
"Brat, take this from me!", Golden Lion suddenly let out a loud roar, a huge sound rang out in the sky.
The originally floating sky island in the clouds, after his fruit ability was lifted, was falling downward at free fall speed.
Seeing this scene, all battles stopped.
A ten-kilometer-wide island, such size already posed a threat to them.
"Oi oi, this is a bit too exaggerated," Saint Sommers jumped away to an open space, looking in shock at the island falling from the sky.
An island this size crashing down, self-preservation was not a problem, but the entire Holy Land would be done for.
"Yo, finally time to stop, huh," Rayleigh and others seeing this scene, instead breathed a sigh of relief.
The sky island falling was the previously agreed upon retreat signal.
They could seek Golden Lion's help to retreat, or rely on their own skills to leave.
But the retreat signal being initiated, also meant this battle was at its end.
Moreover, their current position happened to be outside the falling island's range, they could leave directly from the sky.
The place right under that island's fall, was the Five Elders's office, and the residences of the various Celestial Dragon families, and where those ordinary Celestial Dragons were currently located.
"SHIRAHAHAHA, brat, quickly go save your Holy Land, we're leaving first," Golden Lion let out a wild laugh, after letting go of control over the sky island, his whole body relaxed a lot.
"RISE!"
He suddenly raised both hands upward, under the manipulation of the Float-Float Fruit ability, the pirates within several kilometers around him, all floated into the sky under his fruit power, gathering toward his direction.
Now, it was time for them to leave.
