It's not just Leo who gets so shocked. Everyone who knows the Red Line's original shape is shocked when they see its current shape. Only the ignorant ones who never saw the original Red Line or even knew what was on top of that massive wall are not having much reaction.

Just like Leo, the other Straw Hat Pirates who have arrived on Sabaody are also shocked. They have gotten much stronger in these 2 years, but even they don't know how strong one must be to cut the Red Line like this and even carve it. It makes them realize that they haven't reached the top levels yet.

But it also makes them glad that they didn't rush to New World and strengthened themselves first. Who knows what would have happened if they entered the New World 2 years ago? They might have been buried on an island somewhere or even sunk in New World's cold water by now.

Leo finally stops gazing at the Red Line and goes to Shakky's bar after a while. He is the 8th member to arrive, right after Sanji who has just arrived an hour earlier. Only Luffy is left now, but it seems they'll need to wait a bit because all 8 of them come here earlier than planned.

They all were very curious about the Red Line's current state that they hastened their travels. But they know Luffy won't care about it like them, or to be precise, he might not even know about this at all. That's why he won't rush his way here to check whether the Red Line really has been chopped or not.

"What? You mean the Red Hair Pirates were stationed here after the war, Shakky?"

"That's right. They were very upset because they needed to stay here for a few weeks. That's why Shanks got into a fight with Buggy right after he returned to New World. He was forced to stay here because of your father, after all."

"My dad forced him to stay here?"

"Yeah, to stop the pirates in Paradise from entering New World for a while. The fall of Celestial Dragons was causing too many problems all over the world and it would be even bigger in New World."

Shakky explained what really happened in the world after the war to Leo. She also explains what happened in the war last year in general. Even she doesn't know the details as only the Clown Pirates know the full details of the war.

"The War of Gods, that's the name people gave for that war. It signed the fall of the Celestial Dragons that referred themselves as Gods and it signed the rise of a new God. People think that the one who can defeat Gods is the real God, after all."

"God? The one who defeated the Gods? Are you talking about my dad?"

"Yes, some crazy people think he is the real God now. Well, they can't be blamed because in their minds, only a God has the power to cut the Red Line. The Marines also did something that made things worse. Now your father actually has some believers that worship him."

Shakky takes a stack of paper from the drawer and puts it on the bar. Leo opens it and his eyes widen as he sees the content. It is a stack of Clown Pirates' bounty posters and his dad's bounty poster is on the top.

'Clown God' Buggy: 7,5  Billion

7,5 billion Belly for his head. It's the highest-ever bounty in history, much higher than even the Pirate King. His previous bounty was already higher than Roger's at 6 billion, but now it has risen to 7,5 billion because of what he has done.

It's not just Buggy. Everyone in the Clown Pirates has their bounties raised. It's not just the executives or the infamous members that have bounties now. Now every one of them has a price on their heads because each one of them is very dangerous.

Even the weakest member is priced at 50 million. It can't represent her power though because she can easily fold any pirates that are worth 50 million. Even those with 100 million on their heads are still not her match. That's just how strong the Clown Pirates are.
