In the following days, Renn disappeared without a trace as if he had evaporated from the world.
After all, it was struck by lightning and sank into the sea. It might have been killed, or it might have been fed to the fish.
However, although he is no longer in the world, his legend is still circulating in the world.
Hawkeye is defeated, the throne of the world's strongest swordsman changes hands, and the demon king Renn continues the myth of invincibility... This is a big event that shocked the world, and the popularity is naturally amazing.
In the past few days, newspapers publishing relevant news have spread all over the sea like snowflakes. As a result, melon eaters all over the world have fresh big melons to eat.
…………
New world, Dressrosa.
Tourists were fleeing on Lovers' Avenue. Several buildings on the side of the street collapsed. Gravel, rubble and other debris were everywhere, as well as weapons such as swords, guns, swords and halberds scattered everywhere.
Dozens of killers from the Don Quixote family fell to the ground in a mess, their bodies stained with blood, and they let out a few wails from time to time.
One of the cadres of the family, Dellinger, who had part of the fishman bloodline, was also beaten to a bloody head and lay on the ground with a weak breath.
A leg wearing a black boot stepped on his hair and rubbed hard, making him moan.
"Hahaha...are these the so-called cadres of the Don Quixote family? They are really weak."
Eustace Kidd stepped on Dellinger's head with his foot, a cruel and arrogant smile appeared on his face, and mocked.
After the war, he followed the advice of the bloodthirsty swordsman and stayed dormant for half a year to learn domineering.
Now that I have almost mastered it, I start to do things. In addition to being a little impatient, there is also the fact that the advancement of domineering must be carried out in actual combat, and it is very inefficient to just practice hard.
"Kid, don't be too... arrogant, the young master will not let you go!"
Dellinger's face was covered with blood after being beaten, but he was still stunned and gritted his teeth.
Kidd sneered: "Tenyasha is indeed a person, but he is not qualified to compare with people like Ren, the Empress, and Kaido. Do you think I will be afraid of him?"
Perhaps because he had seen the swordsman Ren and Kizaru PK at close range, Kidd was not as reckless as before.
After initially mastering Haki, he did not directly challenge the Five Emperors. Instead, he first used the Don Quixote family to practice his skills.
"You... bastard! Young Master will definitely..." Delinger cursed.
Bang!
As soon as he finished speaking, Kidd raised his foot and kicked him hard. Delinger screamed in agony and flew out like a ball.
Without taking another look at Delinger, who looked like a dead dog, Kidd asked:
"Is there any news from the Lionheart Kingdom?"
"Hawkeye has been defeated and is in critical condition and is being rescued. Even Tosik Island has sunk."
Kira, the killing warrior, brought some newspapers over and handed them to him.
"A mythical blow, the swordsman Renn split open Tosik Island with a shocking sword!" 》
"Hawkeye suffered a tragic defeat, and the title of the world's strongest swordsman changed hands!" 》
Kidd took these newspapers, read them ten lines at a glance, grinned and said:
"He is truly worthy of being called the King of Demons. He has defeated another terrifying guy, Tenyasha, Peach Rabbit, Poison Man Magellan, Kizaru, Akainu, Hawkeye... Such a terrifying record has been repeated all over the sea. This one is undoubtedly the strongest."
"He is indeed a very scary man." Kira, who never spoke much, couldn't help but admire.
After this battle, the swordsman Renn almost gained an invincible reputation that no pirate could match.
Coupled with the powerful and terrifying overall strength of the Lion Heart Kingdom, he already seems to be somewhat superior to the other emperors.
After searching the sea, only the daughter of God with a mysterious background can compare with her.
"Kid, it's better not to provoke the Lionheart Pirates for the time being." Kira warned, a little worried.
He knew that Kidd had always regarded swordsman Lane as a role model or goal, and he was the one he most hoped to challenge and surpass.
Kidd smiled heartily and said:
"Don't worry, I'm not that stupid. I insist on biting the hardest bone first... After we have learned Tianyaksha's strength, we will go to Wanguo for a walk."
Even if you want to overthrow the Five Emperors, as long as you are in your right mind, you will not choose the Demon King first.
On the other side, Nine Snakes are fighting with the beasts. The battlefield of the battle between the two emperors is a bloody meat grinder. It is definitely not a wise move to get close at this time.
As a result, the only target left is the aunt, the red-haired one.
Picking out the soft persimmons and pinching them first, after thinking about it for a while, Kidd still felt that the aunt was better.
(Aunt: Are you polite?)
………
New World, Navy G1 branch.
On the top floor, the spacious and bright conference room was already filled with naval admirals.
What we want to discuss today is the battle between the two emperors. Of course, it is inevitable to discuss something about Lei.
"I made a lot of money, and my savings instantly increased by 30%."
Kizaru crossed his legs, held the newspaper in his hand, and whispered with a lewd smile.
He knew Ren wouldn't let him down.
He rarely gambles, but this opportunity is rare. He has fought against the bloodthirsty swordsman many times, and he is one of the people who knows his strength best. This transaction is almost guaranteed to make a profit.
Even though Rennes's odds were low, only 1.3 (a successful prediction of 100 Baileys would result in 130 Baileys), his assets were successfully increased by 30%.
Thinking of this, the smile on Kizaru's face was as bright as a chrysanthemum in bloom.
Realizing that he was a little carried away with his smile, Zhan Momomaru, who was standing behind him, quickly poked his back with his finger.
Unfortunately it's too late.
On the main seat, the Warring States Marshal stared at the old actor with cold eyes and said:
"Polusalino, are you happy to know that the swordsman Ren defeated Hawkeye?"
Kizaru: "..."
(˙灬˙)
No, not very exciting, just the joy of making hundreds of millions of dollars.
After reprimanding the old actor, Warring States put on a dark face, took out a fresh reward order, and said:
"Swordsman Renn, the latest bounty value given by the government is 5.428 billion beli. Does anyone have any objections?"
Everyone: "..."
There was silence.
The string of zeros and the picture of Renne laughing wildly on the reward order made all the naval admirals silent for a moment.
Now, just his name and his appearance on the wanted poster can put heavy pressure on the top brass of the Navy.
The world's greatest swordsman also lost.
Who else can stop that madman?
"Mr. Warring States, 5.4 billion Baileys is too low. In fact, it can be higher."
Kizaru broke the silence and beeped quietly, which earned him a blank look from the leader.
5.4 billion beli is already an unimaginable sky-high price. The other emperors are all below 5 billion beri. The strongest creature, Kaido, is only 4.6 billion beri. This value even exceeds Whitebeard’s 5.046 billion beri. profit.
It’s only a little lower than Roger “One Piece”’s 5.5648 billion Baileys.
Roger and Whitebeard are already dead. Renn is the only pirate with a bounty of more than 5 billion Baileys. 5.4 billion Baileys is also the highest bounty value on the sea at this time.
It can be said that no one in this era stands higher than Renne.
Among all those who go to sea, he is the undoubted ceiling. He is the goal that all pirates, including Kaido, Red Hair and Big Mom, need to look up to and chase.
He is the apex, the highest peak, the nightmare of all pirates and navy.
"We've finally reached this point."
Akainu took off his military cap, revealing short black hair. His square and cold face had a cold expression, and he stared intently at the picture of Tosik Island crumbling in the newspaper.
He looked in good condition and had obviously recovered from the frail state after the war.
"Ah la la, it's really a miracle. One sword sank an island with an area close to that of Malinvando... It's hard to imagine. Is this really something that a human swordsman can do?"
Aoki was reading the newspaper with the title "A Mythical Strike, Sword Master Ren's Shocking Sword Split Tosik Island", with wonder in his tone and sharp, fearful eyes.
In half a year, he went from a newcomer to the top of the Five Emperors of the New World, and even surpassed the other sea emperors in terms of strength and status.
No such person can be found in 800 years of history, not even Gol D. Roger has had such miracles and feats.
Especially this one, described by Morgans as a slash that only gods can perform, has aroused heated discussions among countless people these days.
Destroying the island with one sword sounds so dreamy and terrifying.
"Zhu Yuan, can a great swordsman do such a thing?"
The gray-haired Lieutenant General He had a serious face and looked at the tall, plump and mature beautiful woman beside him.
Taotu looked confused and said: "Sorry, I don't know, I can't figure out why."
This blow from the bloodthirsty swordsman subverted the views of countless people, including hers.
After all, she only received a quarter of the sword master's inheritance, and her knowledge was still limited. Moreover, the path of the starry sky sword master was proved to be wrong, and it did not involve the route of sword slashing the void.
(Note: Starry Sky Sword Saint does not practice the method of shattering voids and vacuums.)
The atmosphere in the conference room was silent and depressing.
Sengoku, Akainu, Aoki, Crane and Flying Squirrel all had uncertain expressions on their faces.
The area of Tosik Island is at least two-thirds of the size of Malinfando... Doesn't this mean that the swordsman Ren can now destroy places like Malinfando with one sword?
This is so fucked up.
"Could it be false news? The Lionheart Pirates used some means to destroy the foundation of the island in advance... to deliberately scare the world." Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel muttered in a low voice.
He is a swordsman and said that he refuses to believe that there are such arrogant people in this world. It must be false news.
There are many people who think this way, thinking that it is fake news, or that the Lions Club has done something in advance.
Warring States stretched out his hand and rubbed the center of his brow, but said nothing, neither denying nor supporting Flying Squirrel.
The news about the bloodthirsty swordsman wiping out the island with one strike has put a lot of pressure on the naval establishment and even the top brass of the World Government.
Because this is the power only recorded by the ancient weapon "Pluto" Pluto.
He also hoped in his heart that this was false news, but this optimistic idea was untenable.
Many people witnessed that battle, and with so many reporters, it was impossible for them all to collude. Besides, there were also several reporters from newspapers secretly controlled by the government...
Everyone saw that Hawkeye wanted to fight back, but was defeated without any resistance by Ren's sword.
It's even more nonsense to destroy the foundation in advance. The two of them fought for a long time, and they couldn't control this kind of thing at all.
"Well, the position of the strongest swordsman has changed hands. The swordsman Ren has made no other moves, so we won't discuss his affairs for the time being.
Regarding the war between Nine Snakes and Hundred Beasts, I am preparing..."
Warring States took the initiative to change the topic about the Demon King and brought up the war between the two emperors.
He didn't want to do this, but the navy had no way, let alone the ability to interfere in the affairs of the Lionheart Kingdom.
Many naval generals were relieved to hear that the marshal had skipped the topic.
It's a bit shameful, but the Demon King is really a devil now, and no one, including the three navy generals, has any way to deal with it.
In contrast, they are more willing to discuss the war between the two emperors.
Empress, Kaido is very powerful, but at least he still knows the basics. The strong men in the navy can handle it, unlike the bloodthirsty swordsman who doesn't know whether he is a human or a ghost...
At noon, after three hours, the meeting ended.
Kizaru came to the restaurant on the second floor, looked left and right, and said:
"Well, where's Kate? It seems like I haven't seen her in the past few days."
"asked for leave."
Hina sat at the next table with three dishes and one soup, and explained, "It seems that she went to attend some food festival somewhere."
"I see." Kizaru was stunned and didn't think much about it.
Participating in various food festivals and eating competitions are probably Bailong's few hobbies.
There have been a lot of things going on recently, but the Navy is basically waiting and watching. There are not many actions and tasks, so taking a few days off is nothing.
…………
New world, unknown waters.
The blue waves rolled, and a whirlwind blew across this uninhabited sea area with a radius of hundreds of miles. The storm condensed and quickly outlined Arturia's exquisite facial features and graceful figure.
"It's probably this area, where his life breath finally disappeared."
Her silver combat boots did not sink when she stepped on the sea, and her eyes of different colors flickered with divine light.
After feeling it, Artoria squatted down and touched the sea water lightly with her white palms. A layer of dreamlike light penetrated into it, and the light spread at a constant speed.
In just a few seconds, all the seawater within a radius of hundreds of miles and thousands of meters deep was glowing with silver, like a sacred ocean of light!
She stood on the ocean of light, her hair flying, her originally beautiful and holy face full of majesty, and her whole person exuding immeasurable divine power.
"All spirits in the water, please listen to my call and come up!"
Wow!
Soon after, the waves on the sea surface surged and splashed, and various fish and shrimps, turtles, octopuses and strange sea beasts, even huge sea kings, floated up in the rippling waves.
Countless marine creatures are crowded together, so densely packed that it makes people feel a little numb.
[King, guys, the King is calling us! The great Neptune is finally taking action! ]
[No, this feeling... doesn't seem to be our king! ]
[Well, it seems a little strange. Stop arguing. Go up and take a look first. ]
Among them, several sea kings that are hundreds of meters long, or even a thousand meters long, are raised like hills, casting large shadows on the sea.
They swim casually a few times and set off huge waves and splashes on the sea.
[Human, who are you? ]
A green python-like sea king stood up half its body, its light red eyes were bigger than a bungalow, and it stared at the tiny human with a curious and wary expression.
Although small, the aura released from her body was so powerful that it almost took her breath away.
It even thought she was impersonating the great Sea King, so it tolerated it and did not dare to take action directly.
Arturia didn't answer, she stretched out her hand and touched the void lightly.
Buzz!
The ocean of light shimmered with silver, and all the creatures on the sea were as motionless as if they had been immobilized, and their bodies were rendered by the silver.
The few Neptune species were no exception. Their bodies remained motionless and their eyes were filled with silver light.
Then Artoria stretched out her hand again and pulled, and countless dreamlike light points flew out of the bodies of these sea creatures and poured in front of her, converging and intertwining to form three-dimensional images.
Ren stood on the sea, covered in blood, with a hideous and painful expression. The phantoms of various weapons such as knives, spears, swords, and halberds were wildly interspersed, smashed, and tempered on his body.
Although the scene is bloody and violent, the effect is also remarkable.
The hundreds of acupuncture points in his body became more solid, each one shining brightly like a galaxy. The muscles, blood vessels, bones and even every cell in the body began to gradually become transparent, and finally turned into something like the glass of the Jade Buddha. look like.
The golden divine fire burned and licked his body, and his soul was gradually purified until it was as pure and flawless as the light blue ice soul.
Dangerous, but also profound transformation.
Almost the whole body and soul were tempered.
Then, several brilliant thunders fell. These were not ordinary thunders in nature. Each one contained the special power of the world's laws and possessed terrifying power of destruction.
After falling into the sea, he seemed to have lost consciousness and was breathless.
Like a piece of coke, it sank deeper and deeper, and was finally thrown into the endless darkness by a deep sea undercurrent...
Artoria looked at the memory images extracted from the minds of nearby sea creatures, and her expression became increasingly ugly.
The holy sword trembled, and a holy light appeared. It was the goddess Lungominiad.
"Strange, why is there thunder tribulation? It's like the world is instinctively rejecting him."
The Holy Spear Goddess has the same face as Artoria, but she looks more mature and cold.
She seemed unable to understand why the thunder fell in the end.
The previous transformation was indeed a bit cruel and bloody, but this can be reasonably explained, but the final thunder catastrophe was inexplicable...
"What he practices may be weird." Artoria said worriedly.
Judging from the results, Renn's situation is not good. Even if he is not dead, most of his life is taken away by the thunder, and he is also involved in the undercurrent of the seabed and cannot be traced...
In fact, he was indeed disconnected and did not respond to any messages from her for three or four days.
That's why she asked for leave and rushed over to check.
"It seems that he didn't notify you before he broke through." The goddess' shadow said calmly.
"I just know how to show off my strength."
Arturia's face looked very ugly, her chest was heaving, and she was obviously very angry, and her heart was in a mess.
She warned him many times to inform her before breaking through so that she could come over quietly and take care of him...but he still kept it secret from her in the end.
"I kind of understand his choice."
The goddess looked at Artoria, who was a little stunned, and said, "If you are around him, he will definitely be distracted. Without the most decisive courage and determination, this step will definitely fail."
Artoria: "..."
Promoting to the fifth level, this kind of breakthrough is a very personal matter.
It’s really hard to concentrate on a fight when there are outsiders around.
"Let's go, it's been a few days, and I've been sucked into the undercurrent of the sea and can't be traced," the goddess reminded.
But Arturia ignored her words. She continued to release the light of her soul to explore the sea surface, communicate with those marine creatures, and seemed to be preparing to track and investigate the nearby sea areas one by one.
"Don't waste your efforts, you are just looking for a needle in a haystack." The goddess shook her head and reminded.
Communication is not a panacea, it is very labor-intensive and may not be effective.
God knows where Ren was carried by the undercurrent. If he was buried in a mud ditch or under the mud on the seabed, no matter how hard he searched, it would be useless.
Arturia's white forehead began to sweat, and she kept using her authority to communicate and investigate.
The goddess wanted to persuade her again, but found that her eyes were red and tears were welling up in her eyes. She was stubborn and did not shed tears, so she remained silent.
Well, she might be having a breakdown.
In this way, they searched all afternoon, rummaging through the six to seven hundred miles radius of the sea, but still found nothing. The look in Artoria's eyes gradually dimmed and became empty.
The goddess felt distressed.
If she didn't find anyone, she felt something big would happen.
Bailong: [Hey, where are you? Answer quickly, please. ]
It’s the one hundred and twentieth time I’ve sent a message, but none of the previous ones have responded.
Ren: [Sorry, I'm still alive, don't worry... I don't know where I am, dark, sour, slimy, the Eye of Deception is temporarily unavailable... maybe in the belly of some sea monster or sea king. Come inside. ]
On the sea, Artoria's body trembled, and her eyes regained their clarity.
Bailong: [Is it safe? ]
Renn: [It's very safe. I don't have to breathe, eat or drink, and I won't be digested... This stupid fish seems to be a little noisy recently, maybe it's because of a stomachache.
I can understand how it feels. It must be uncomfortable to eat a big stone, no, a steel sculpture. ]
Artoria: "..."
(￢_￢;)
Bailong: [Hmph, I will teach you a lesson when I come back. ]
Renn: "..."
He didn't dare to reply.
He had just woken up and couldn't move, so he thought of opening the system's contact platform, and then he saw more than a hundred unread messages...
At that time, he even felt that he almost didn't have the courage to face her.
They didn't talk for long, and after reporting that they were safe several times, he fell asleep again because of his weakness.
Time passed quietly, and a few days passed.
In the New World, near the Rubble Island, several large fishing boats flying the flag of the Beasts Pirates returned with full loads.
Pirates also need to eat properly.
During the war years, the Beast Pirates would also send pirates out to sea to fish in order to save supplies.
"Hey, you guys, look, why is this sea beast's belly so big?"
"Did you eat some treasure?"
After the fishing net was pulled up, a group of pirates surrounded a simple and honest sea beast that looked a bit like a hippopotamus. They curiously reached out and poked its bulging belly.
The sea beast's expression was very painful, and it whined lowly, just like a pregnant woman who was about to give birth.
It still couldn't figure out why a piece of meat, with its aroma, was so difficult to digest?
