New world, Rubble Island.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, it was already half past two in the morning. In the living room of the villa, Yamato was sitting at the dining table, his big bright yellow eyes staring intently at the picture revealed on the crystal ball.
The natural disaster-level scene on the island, which was half a volcano erupting and half ice and snow sweeping the world, made her face look surprised.
"Is this the power of an admiral?"
The girl was a little shocked.
The two top natural powerhouses took action with all their strength, and the damage caused was truly eye-catching. Even the island's landforms and even the celestial phenomena were changed.
Compared to this kind of monster, I seem to be less interested...
Half an hour later, Ren had finished taking a shower and came out of the bathroom humming a song.
Looking at the girl still sitting at the table, he couldn't help but remind her:
"It's time to go to bed. Don't keep staring. This duel will probably not be decided for ten or eight days."
"What?"
Hearing this, Yamato looked a little surprised.
After coming out of Ghost Island, she had seen a lot of the world and felt shocked, saying:
"Can this kind of scene last for ten or eight days?"
As she spoke, she couldn't help but glance at the half-red sky reflected by the magma on the crystal ball, and the other side where the wind and snow were falling.
Although she had seen a power from Bai Long that was even greater than those of these two, she never thought that such a huge and terrifying force of natural disaster could be described in terms of ten days or eight days.
She felt that it would be abnormal for a confrontation with such intensity to last for three to five days.
"Of course I can. Admirals are all monsters, with abundant physical strength and tenacious vitality. Of course, they can't compare to this sword master." Renn grinned.
"Yeah?"
Yamato curled his lips and said, "If you attack like this, how long can you fight for at most?"
Ren looked at the picture on the crystal ball, scratched his head and said: "If we just maintain the level of destruction of Aoki Akainu, I can probably fight for three or four months.
Alas, there is no way, as a man, he is so persistent. "
Yamato:"……"
(?_?),real?
Three or four months... Not to mention fighting for so long, she would be a corpse if she didn't eat or drink for three or four months.
"You can brag."
Yamato puffed up his face and said, "Every day after dinner, I clamor to go to bed. I go to bed so early, but I end up getting up later than a pig the next day. Humph, if it doesn't work, don't make a fuss about it—"
She stopped mid-sentence.
Ren clenched his fist, shook it in front of her, and said:
"How should I talk to eldest brother? Do you recognize his fist as big as a sandbag?"
Yamato:"……"
(||?Д?)
This bastard is so angry.
It's a pity that she can't beat him...
Yamato puffed up his cheeks, pointed at the crystal ball and said, "Can you defeat them?"
"You still need to ask? This sword master can spin the two of them with one hand even without using a sword." Ren said calmly.
"..."
Seeing how confident he was, Yamato sneered on his face, but felt a little guilty in his heart.
He can't really be that powerful, right?
No, no, this is impossible. This world does not allow such awesome people to exist. It is difficult for a smelly dad to defeat a naval admiral. Wu Ming is at most a little better than her dad.
"Goden, I think it's almost time for us to leave Rubble Island."
Ren sat down at the dining table, put away his cynicism, looked at Yamato's beautiful face, and said seriously.
Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, Yamato was silent for a moment.
Leaving here, she did have this thought in her mind.
The longer she stayed here with the Beasts, the more she felt that she was out of place here, and she had nothing in common with people like Jhin, Quinn, and Fozzie Fu.
What makes her find it ridiculous is that in terms of relationship, she and Wu Ming, an outsider who suddenly appeared, are far better than the people from the beasts.
After all, we all share the same bed but have different dreams, and parting ways is almost inevitable.
"But, my previous agreement with my father was to defeat the Nine Snakes Pirates before leaving."
Yamato said with a hesitant expression.
Walking like this felt like she was breaking her promise, and she didn't know where to go.
Ren rolled his eyes and said: "Defeat Nine Snakes? What if the Hundred Beasts lose?"
"..."
"Furthermore, your ideal is to expel the beasts and help found the country of Wano, which is in deep suffering... If the beasts really defeat the Nine Snakes, wouldn't you be acting as a minion of the beasts and helping the evildoers?"
Yamato:"……"
o(╥﹏╥)o
This is the source of the contradiction.
If the beasts were victorious with her help, then her act of calling herself "Royal Palace" would be a huge joke.
"Then what if Nine Snakes wins? After occupying Wano Country, will they act recklessly here?" Yamato asked a little worriedly.
On the sea, the reputation of the Empress is not very good, and she is barely better than the three villains with bad reputations: Kaido, Big Mom and the Bloodthirsty Swordsman.
There is no comparison with heroes like Roger, red hair, and white beard.
(Because Ren is a big threat and has destroyed the Navy Headquarters, he has been hacked by the World Government in the past six months, so he is notorious.)
Ren said disdainfully: "Not to mention whether the empress will occupy Wano after defeating the beasts. Even if she does, will the situation be worse than now?"
In fact, Anna has no interest in Wano Country at all. She called here just to end things with Kaido, her old enemy.
The daughter island has been established a long time ago, and it’s not like there is no territory. Nine snakes also rule the entire sky island. What is the purpose of a chaotic country in the new world?
Hailoushi and the craftsmen had already grabbed a batch.
The empress is leaving soon, and the legacy left behind is enough. Any more may not be a good thing.
It is the Lion Heart Kingdom. According to his arrangements and some back-ups, the focus of future development will also shift to places such as the North Sea and Sky Island, instead of sticking to the small and chaotic sea area of the New World.
Ren spent some effort and succeeded in fooling Yamato into lameness... Well, he succeeded in convincing Yamato.
The main reason is that the current situation in Wano is a mess. It is a smog that has been tortured by all kinds of beasts. The people live in dire straits and are even demoted as slaves. Chemical plants that emit all kinds of pollution and poisonous gases are being built everywhere.
It can't get any worse.
If Kaido is replaced by the Empress, even if the Empress is bad, the situation will not be worse.
"Leave now?"
Seeing Ren start packing his luggage, Yamato scratched his head, a little confused.
This was so efficient. As soon as we had negotiated with her, we were ready to leave.
In her surprised eyes, Ren slapped his hand and the crystal ball on the table disappeared out of thin air. He shrugged and said:
"Otherwise, do you want to stay here for the New Year? Or do you want to escape during the day and have people come over to see you off?"
Yamato:"……"
All right.
The girl glanced out the window. It was about three o'clock in the morning, the night was deep, and everything was silent, which was the perfect time to leave quietly.
However, there was some hesitation in her eyes and she said, "Before I leave, I want to meet with Daddy and tell him that I am leaving."
"..."
Ren rolled his eyes and complained, "Aren't you afraid that he will break your legs, or put you in sea tower stone shackles and throw you into a ghost island?"
What is this girl thinking? It's okay to be upright. They want to run away overnight, not go on a trip.
"Isn't it true that you, the invincible sword master, are here?"
Yamato teased first, then crossed his arms and said confidently, "As long as we join forces, I can't stop you!"
"No, no need to join forces, I am enough alone."
Yamato:"……"
(???), can’t this guy be more humble?
The two decided to go to Onigashima to meet Kaido tomorrow and then leave in a big way.
Of course, before that…
"Before that, I want to know your identity."
Yamato rarely put away his careless attitude, walked up to Ren, and stared at him with burning eyes, as if he wanted to see through him.
"What kind of identity can the nameless swordsman have?" Lei said perfunctorily.
The vest cannot be taken off, otherwise his status as the leader of the six sons will be lost.
Hey, he seems to be leaving soon...
That's okay.
"Tell me, who are you?" Yamato put his hands on his hips and stared at him with his big bright yellow eyes. "If you don't tell me, I will never talk to you again."
The girl is upright and quite naive, but that doesn't mean she is stupid.
The reason why Yamato is not completely as bad as Kozuki Oden is that everyone can find that although she admires Oden very much, her own behavior and way of doing things are not like Oden...
When she originally appeared on Ghost Island, many of her judgments and actions were decisive and correct.
When working and doing things, they don't lose their temper. Such people are not pig teammates, so naturally they won't completely stretch their hips.
Seeing the girl's insistence, Ren smiled faintly, reached out and simply took off the "nightmare mask" on his face, revealing a delicate and handsome face.
Black hair and blue eyes, this look, and this familiar yet unfamiliar feeling...
Yamato seemed to remember something, and the next moment, his eyes suddenly widened.
"You, you...you are...that...that..."
She pointed her finger at him, with a look of disbelief on her face, and stammered.
It can make a very nervous female man become speechless. You can imagine the shock in her heart.
This face was not unfamiliar to her. His photo appeared in almost every newspaper some time ago. Those newspapers used a lot of space to publish the content of the peak showdown between the two top swordsmen.
Ren put away his nightmare mask, reached out and wiped the thick, flowing black hair on his head, smiled slightly at her and said:
"Introduce yourself, I am the swordsman Ren."
Yamato:"……"
(?灁?)
She didn't want to talk, she was really frightened and needed to slow down.
…………
The next day, the morning light first appeared, and the sky was bright. The figures of birds swayed briskly in the breeze, and their crisp cries were like the sound of an alarm clock, waking up the sleeping island.
Carrying a backpack and holding a mace, Yamato walked through the deserted camp to Quinn's military tent. Along the way, she turned back frequently and looked at a black-haired young man behind her with curious and strange eyes.
The young man looked calm, walked leisurely, and looked left and right.
Not sure what he was thinking of, Yamato curled his lips and muttered:
"Hey, why don't you keep pretending today, you stand out like this."
"It doesn't matter, this sword master has never been afraid of anyone, even if he is in the enemy's base camp." Ren said casually.
In the past few days, he has only recovered 70% of his state, but that is not important. At 70% state, he can easily defeat the entire navy headquarters, if his sister does not stop him.
Even the Navy Headquarters is a cloud, let alone the Rubble Island and the Ghost Island.
Yamato:"……"
I'm not worried about your safety, I'm worried about people here being scared.
God knows how surprised she was last night. She once wondered if she had hallucinated or was still in a dream.
The "King of Demons" is by my side, and the clown is actually myself...
Fortunately, it was still very early and there were very few pedestrians on the road. The two of them did not disturb anyone and arrived at the military tent of "Epidemic" Quinn smoothly.
These newcomers or cannon fodder on Rubble Island are managed by Quinn.
In the military tent, Fatty Quinn yawned, and there was a stack of official documents on the table in front of him.
He was flipping through the documents, holding a large steaming bowl of red bean soup in his left hand, and was eating breakfast while processing the battle report.
Fatty was stunned when he saw Yamato barging in. When he saw the big backpack on her back, he frowned and had a bad feeling.
"Da... Yudian, what are you doing?"
"I'm leaving. Take me to Onigashima to meet my father." Yamato said concisely.
"..."
Quinn's expression changed, and she instantly stood up with the bowl in hand. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly saw the black-haired young man behind her.
Snap!
He looked horrified, and with a shake of his arm, the bowl of red bean soup broke to the ground, with countless soup juices and porcelain pieces flying.
His pants were splashed wet, but Quinn didn't care at all. He pointed at Ren and said with trembling lips:
"You...you...are..."
"Brother Quinn, you don't recognize me?"
Ren took a few steps forward with a smile, pointed at his face and said, "I am Wu Ming, six sons of Wu Ming. We promised that we will be brothers for life, but you won't recognize me if you take off the mask?"
Quinn: "..."
(Д｀?)σ, Nani?
"Brother, I made a special trip to say goodbye to you this time."
Ignoring the other party's expression of seeing a ghost, Ren took a few steps forward with a smile and approached the table.
"You...you, don't come over!"
Quinn was horrified and took a few steps back. She subconsciously reached out and grabbed a big knife on the table. With trembling arms, she raised the knife and stood it upright in front of her body. Cold sweat was dripping on her forehead unconsciously.
Unfortunately, a knife couldn't give him a sense of security, let alone clear his mind.
The fat on Fatty Quinn's face trembled, his eyes were full of fear, confusion and confusion, and his tongue trembled as he said:
"Stop, don't come here! Wu Ming... no, swordsman Ren, what are you doing here... no, you... why are you here?"
Because he was too nervous and excited, his words were somewhat incoherent.
It's not that he was unlucky, it was too sudden and made people unprepared.
Originally, I had just woken up this morning and was still a little sleepy. Now all the sleepiness is gone and I feel very energetic...
Seeing that the other party was frightened, Ren was a little embarrassed and comforted him with a kind smile:
"Don't worry, Fatty, I won't kill you."
Quinn: "..."
(?灁?)
When he said this, he became even more frightened. He wanted to silence him... ahem.
Quinn held up the big knife and hid beside Yamato. He looked at the devil nervously and horrified from half a distance of her head. His back was wet with cold sweat and his chest was pounding.
It's not that he is timid.
If someone else faced this situation, it wouldn't be much better.
This is the swordsman Wren, with a notorious reputation and overwhelming power. His face alone can stop a child from crying at night. He is described by the World Government as the "King of Demons", "a terrifying devil with a thirst for blood and meat", " "Monster among monsters", "the most evil pirate", "the most evil maniac in history", "the most vicious pirate in history".
Some newspapers controlled by the world government and navy would slander him almost every day, including holidays.
Even his boss, Kaido, doesn't receive this kind of treatment.
Quinn never thought that one day he would be exposed to the bloodthirsty swordsman in such an unsuspecting way, which made him a little confused.
Seeing that he was so frightened, Yamato's eyes were a little weird. This was the first time she felt the weight of the title of Demon King.
Even if a pirate like Quinn suddenly meets Ren, it's like a mouse meeting a cat.
Seeing the fat man's reaction, Ren touched his face and wondered if he had become more scary, or if the government's efforts to throw dirty water on him had become stronger recently.
"I said, Fatty, calm down. What do you look like? You are a plague, and this is a rubble island." Ren complained.
Meeting under such circumstances is a bit unexpected, but after the shock, it's time to calm down.
When Quinn heard this, her heartbeat barely calmed down, and she suppressed any thoughts of pretending to be dead. She exhaled a breath and said:
"Swordsman Ren, what on earth is going on?"
There was still deep fear and caution in his eyes.
Although he is an old pirate who has experienced strong winds and waves, this time is definitely the most dangerous moment for him, if the other party has malicious intentions.
Join forces with the unfilial daughter, don't kill him too easily.
Ren put his hands behind his back and said calmly:
"There's nothing to explain. Just lead the way. Take Yamato and I to Onigashima to meet Kaido, or let him come by himself."
"Please...please come with me." Quinn glanced at him and swallowed.
It’s okay not to go.
He still has some bad ideas in his heart. Even though there are many people on Rubble Island, except for the boss, no one is qualified to fight this monster.
After going to Ghost Island, I feel a little bit safer in the base camp of all beasts.
Quinn suppressed her panic, got out of the tent, and led the way.
As he walked, he instinctively turned back frequently, fearing that the bloodthirsty swordsman would suddenly strike him... his mind was running at high speed, thinking about the current situation.
Why is Ren in the belly of the sea beast?
Why did he pretend to be Wu Ming? What's the conspiracy? What do you want to do?
A bunch of speculations and conspiracy theories arose in Fatty's mind, but they were overturned one by one.
If there is really a conspiracy, there is no need for Renn to suddenly reveal his identity in front of him. After all, he has successfully sneaked in...
Quinn lost a lot of brain cells, but he was confused and couldn't figure anything out.
The three of them were walking in the military camp area. It was getting brighter now, and many pirates were already out and about.
The three of them walked together, conspicuously, and someone soon noticed something unusual, mainly because Quinn's expression and body movements were unusual, and Renne's face was also very recognizable.
"You...look, isn't that guy the bloodthirsty swordsman?"
"Brother, don't be ridiculous. How could a big man like swordsman Ren appear in a place like this... Damn, he is such a bloodthirsty swordsman!" A pirate's eyes almost popped out and he rubbed his eyelids. , and observed repeatedly to confirm that he had read it correctly.
Everyone: "..."
|_?｀)
It’s so strange. Is this the sun coming out in the west?
"What's going on?! Why is he here?"
"You ask me, who am I asking, fuck!"
Someone came up and asked: "Brother Quinn, Ray...why is Lord Rayne here? Have the Beasts and the Lionheart Pirates formed an alliance?"
"Shut the hell up!"
Quinn couldn't understand the key point and was upset by the noise. He yelled at the people who came up to him, "Get out, get the hell out of here! What are you doing? Are you allowed to ask about Lord Ren's affairs?" ?!”
Everyone: "..."
(˙灬˙)
If you don't say it, don't say it. Why are you so angry and looking so ugly? It's like your parents are dead...
Everyone slandered, but they, the newcomers, were of low status and did not dare to entangle. They all moved out of the way and looked at the famous bloodthirsty swordsman with curiosity and confusion.
Most people have heard of the swordsman Renn and have seen his pictures in newspapers, but this is the first time they have seen him in person.
If it weren't for Quinn's cold expression, as if someone owed him millions, some people would have wanted to go up and see if they could hug him.
After the three arrived at the dock area, they boarded a pirate ship and headed to Ghost Island.
Renn stood on the deck with his hands behind his back, looking at the rippling blue sea.
"Sir, I'm a little anxious." Quinn rubbed her hands.
"Go ahead."
"Wait a moment, I'll be right back."
The fat man smiled politely, pulled away and entered the cabin.
"Well, he..."
Yamato glanced at his back and frowned slightly.
"It doesn't matter, he can do whatever he wants." Renn waved his hand and said nonchalantly.
The fat man just wanted to inform the people on the ghost island so that they could be prepared.
No matter what battle array the Beast Pirates put up to welcome him on Onigashima, he didn't care.
Yamato didn't say much when he saw this, not to mention Quinn, she had not yet adapted to his change of identity.
Rubble Island is very close to Ghost Island. After sailing for half an hour, the boat successfully arrived at its destination.
Ghost Island seems to be a winter island, with snow feathers flying, the island is covered in silver, and only the landscape is dotted with some bonsai-like trees.
The three of them were silent all the way, walking through the thick snow, and arrived in front of a huge building.
This is Kaido's residence, a huge mansion with a skull decoration on top that resembles a devil's horns and covers a large area.
At this time, there were already people standing outside the mansion, numbering about a thousand.
They wear armor, belts, fur and feather cloaks, armor, swords, gloves, trousers and boots, and almost every member has a decorative headdress of animal horns or possesses real animal horns.
Against the background of the nearby white snow, the figures of more than a thousand people gathered together looked dark. A strong evil spirit and murderous intent rushed towards their faces. It was obvious that they were all elites.
The Beast Pirates' lineup to welcome the bloodthirsty swordsman is particularly luxurious.
Foz Fu, Black Maria, Sasaki, Runti, Peggy Wan and other powerful pillars were all present, and most of the elites such as numberers, givers, laughers and waiters came.
Standing at the front was "Fire Disaster" Jing in black clothes with flames shooting out from behind. Next to him was "Drought" Jack who was wrapped in bandages and wearing a steel helmet and ivory decoration.
Almost all the beasts gathered together, and such a large formation made Yamato take a breath of air.
She looked at the lazy-looking man beside her and said, "I didn't expect that your reputation is so great. You can make the Beast Pirates assume such a posture by yourself."
"Small scene." Ren yawned lazily, not caring.
In Marineland, he split open the surrounding wall with one sword and faced off against three navy generals and 70,000 to 80,000 navy soldiers alone.
Yamato:"……"
Well, with his identity and experience, this may not really matter.
After Quinn arrived here, his tense mind relaxed a little. He breathed a sigh of relief, walked over to Jhin and Jack, and turned around to look at Lei with a wary expression.
With confidence in his heart, the fat man asked:
"Swordsman Ren, what do you mean? What do you want to do?"
"It's nothing. I'm bored, so I came here to play."
Ren was wearing a black windbreaker, with his hands in his pockets, and came in front of thousands of elite members of the Beast Pirates. He said, "Don't be nervous. It's not like everyone knows me. I'm still the mainstay of the Beast Pirates."
Jhin, Quinn, Jack: "..."
Foz Fu, Black Maria, Sasaki, Runti, Peggy Wan: "..."
(ー_ー)!!, too many flaws.
These words made the atmosphere at the scene a bit confusing and silent, a bit awkward and weird.
The bloodthirsty swordsman became a member of the beasts and the leader of the six flying cells. If word spread, the public opinion at sea would be lively.
"Swordsman Renn, stop pretending to me!"
At this time, the invincible King of Boating stood up.
Little friend Jack glared at Mr. Lei, grabbed the saber with his bandaged hand, pointed the tip of the knife at him and said, "Tell me, what is your conspiracy to sneak in under disguise?!"
Everyone: "..."
As expected of Mr. Drought, he can still be so stubborn when facing the Demon King.
Even Quinn admires little Jack. He is full of courage. As the eldest brother, he decided to beat and scold him less in the future...
Facing everyone's wary, fearful and doubtful gazes, Ren shrugged and said disdainfully:
"Conspiracy? You think too highly of yourself. Do you still need a conspiracy to deal with you bunch of bastards?"
"you……"
Jack stared at him with an annoyed look on his face and wanted to make a move, but Jin held him back in silence.
Everyone: "..."
Very arrogant.
But after all, he is recognized as the leader of the Five Emperors. He holds the title of "The Strongest Man in the World" and the "Strongest Swordsman in the World", and his reputation is even higher than that of the captain.
"Where's Kaido? Why don't you come out and see him?"
In the wind and snow, Ren was alone against thousands of troops. He regarded these people as nothing and said lightly, "Is it possible that they are already dead?"
"you……"
Jack was furious, broke away from Jhin's restraints, pulled out the two Schottl steel knives from his waist, and killed Ren, filled with evil aura.
"Do it!"
Jhin suddenly shouted coldly and drew out his saber. The blade was wrapped in a flame tornado. He galloped through the snow and killed the enemy from the side.
Quinn's movements were almost synchronized, he raised his mechanical arm, and he and Jhin rushed to the bloodthirsty swordsman left and right. Together with Drought Jack charging head-on, they formed a multi-angle outflank.
Jhin's words were also a signal, and the pirates raised their guns and pointed them at the enemy.
Whizzing!
Foz Fu, Black Maria, Sasaki, Runti and Peggy Wan, the pillars, suppressed their thoughts and rushed towards the "Head of the Six Sons" from all directions with weapons or their bodies transformed into half-animals!
Either don't move or go together.
The Beast Pirates had no intention of single-handedly fighting this time. Instead, they started a group fight without any martial ethics. This also shows how wary they are of the man in front of them.
After all, he is the strongest man in the world. He has defeated such powerful and terrifying figures as Amayasha, "Poison Man" Magellan, Momo Usagi, Kizaru, Akainu, and Hawkeye. No one thinks they can face him alone.
Yamato clenched the mace with both hands, ready to fight as if facing a powerful enemy.
"Step back." Ren reached out his hand and told her to step back.
Yamato hesitated and took a few steps back.
Faced with the siege of the Three Disasters and Six Sons and hundreds of thousands of elite Beast Pirates, Ren's face was calm and he stepped forward!
boom! !
The invisible domineering energy, centered on the soles of his feet, spread outwards in an instant. The ground cracked in large areas, and all the snowflakes floating in the air were wiped out!
Swept away by this domineering impact, the long knife in Jhin's hand and the flames on the back of his head were extinguished. The shells fired by Quinn's mechanical arm all shattered and rebounded. Jack's face deformed as if he had hit an iron mountain... It was as if time had been suspended. Everyone take action!
boom! !
The next moment, as the domineering impact spread, the Three Disasters and Five Sons, as well as the thousands of elite members of the Beast Pirates, all groaned or screamed, and their bodies flew out like cannonballs!
Bang bang bang!
Thousands of human-shaped cannonballs were fired outwards, smashing nearby vegetation, bonsais, and rockery sculptures to pieces. Countless ice and snow splashed on the ground, creating large craters!
The ground shook, as if hundreds of landmines had been detonated at once, and everything nearby was shattered. Even Kaido's residence was hit by humanoid cannonballs that made many depressions and holes.
The scene suddenly cleared up. Except for Ren and Yamato, no one was standing at the scene.
Yamato's pupils contracted: "..."
Overlord color?
No, it's the armed color, the energetic impact caused by the exposed armed color.
It's just that this weapon color is too strong...
In the broken snow, Ren stood alone, his black windbreaker rustling in the cold wind, and his eyes calmly looked ahead.
Da da da……
At the door of the mansion, heavy footsteps sounded, and a tall, burly, devil-like figure with devilish horns on his head appeared. He carried a mace on his shoulders, and his eyes shone with a menacing light in the shadows.
"Swordsman Ren..."
The only two people left, bearing the title of the strongest, finally met.
