"Click~"
at the same time,
The ice in front of the Knights of God was like an avalanche, with layers of ice squeezing together and piling up to a height of several hundred meters in the blink of an eye.
It was like a furious giant ice and snow beast, opening its bloody mouth to devour everyone!
Not only that, the distance between the Knights of God and the Straw Hats was instantly shortened to less than one kilometer apart.
"Coming in, Joeyboy?!!"
Looking at this scene, Farrell swallowed, feeling indescribable fear in his heart. This was due to his status.
You must know that the original source of their imitation was Du Bois eight hundred years ago, and even the unrivaled Du Bois surrendered to the former Sun God.
Is it really okay to deal with this kind of monster?
"A show of force?" Nori frowned. He hated this way of greeting, it was not polite at all.
However, they had nineteen top-level combatants on their side, while on the other side, including Bista and Aokiji, there were only nine.
There is an unparalleled advantage in quantity!
"But that's all!"
"Pap~"
Suddenly, a series of straight giant elevators appeared on all sides of the giant ship, lifting the huge ship into the air in the blink of an eye.
At their level, they can easily resist various large-scale natural disasters and even fight against them.
Luffy's rubber seems to be extremely ferocious, but in fact it's just a different kind of tsunami!
Um?
At this moment, Nori suddenly discovered that there was one person missing on the ship.
Looking from a distance, I could see a middle-aged man in black Draco costume standing directly below the ship on a giant piece of broken ice, unabashedly releasing his boiling fighting spirit.
"Pitrus?"
"That guy doesn't want to fight alone!"
"Because you got that ability, you started to get carried away, completely throwing aside the battle plan."
Nori's tone was very unkind.
Similar to the World Government, the Knights of God is an internal alliance of the Celestial Dragons. The members are allies and there is no so-called hierarchy!
If it weren't for Hilliard's overwhelming strength that twisted them into a rope, even the identity of group leader would not have existed in the past 800 years.
Although the Knights of God are a collective, they are not a harmonious group. After all, all members are high-ranking Celestial Dragons, and it is impossible to expect them to live in peace.
For eight hundred years, all members have been hostile to each other in order to compete for the position of the next Five Old Stars.
And Pietrus is an example of this.
Perhaps it is because no one in the family has ever served as the fifth-old star, and Pietrus has a deep obsession with this.
Unfortunately, we met at the wrong time!
Pietrus' original strength cannot be underestimated, and coupled with his newly acquired abilities, he is enough to rank among the top five in the Knights of God.
What he got was the power of the Momo Fruit. The original owner was the 'World Destroyer' Bundy Walder!
"This brat Aokiji?" On the side, Fegalande Geiringer frowned deeply.
He expected the reaction of the Straw Hats, but what he didn't expect was that Aokiji, a former navy marshal, would also join in the mischief, even going so far as to fight with them.
No matter what the reason is, being bitten by your own vicious dog will always make you unhappy!
"Oh, our commander seems to be angry. Do you want to take action?" Upon seeing this, Farrell said with a face full of ridicule.
Fegalande Geiringer is the oldest among them. He is a member of the same generation as the current five old stars, and he is extremely powerful.
pity……
As both swordsmen, when he competed for the position of the Five Old Stars, he met Sonobe Keiichi, who was stronger than him.
In addition, the so-called commander is also in name only. He has been defeated by Hilliard, a rising star, several times, and his prestige has long been ruined.
"puff!"
There was a flash of silver light, and the next moment Fegaland Geiringer's sharp blade had already scratched Farrell's neck, and his blood-stained head rose into the sky.
"I hate people who have no sense of proportion!"
The long sword was returned to its sheath, Fegalande Geiringer looked indifferent.
thump!
The sky-high head hit the deck hard, and blood flowers all over the sky were still flying in the air, forming a red picture that was temporarily still.
"you……"
Farrell's eyes were full of doubts at this time, and he seemed to be still shocked that Fegaland dared to take action against him.
"Snapped!"
The next second, a boot blocked Farrell's sight, and everything in front of him was suddenly filled with boundless darkness.
Farrell,
Was trampled into a puddle of mud!
"Giggle, how disgusting!" Don Quixote Anastasia covered her nose gracefully, as if she didn't like this bloody and violent scene.
"Who's to say it's disgusting?"
On the other side, Farrell's head was seen growing back at an extremely fast speed, and in just a few moments, it had returned to the position of his ears.
not only that,
His body also underwent a huge transformation, like a dragon that was still in its growth stage. His huge bloody eyes were staring at Fegaland and Anastasia.
Animal system·Ancient species·Undead salamander form!
Known as the most tenacious creature in the world, it is a miraculous species that can still grow back even if its head is cut off.
Especially after the ability is awakened, as long as there is still a complete piece of flesh and blood, there will be no real death.
However, this kind of regeneration is not unlimited. It needs to absorb enough nutrients from the outside world. Once too much is consumed, the speed of later regeneration will become slower and slower.
At the same time, they also have a natural enemy common to all living things——
time!
"Oh, you want to attack me?"
Anastasia smiled approvingly and lightly snapped her fingers.
Things changed in an instant, and the ocean beneath my feet suddenly disappeared, turning into an endless desert.
The sky and the scorching sunshine scorched the earth, leaving no doubt about its authenticity.
At the same time, more than a thousand people on the ship all turned into the appearance of Don Quixote Anastasia!
"Come on, Farrell." More than a thousand Anastasia hooked their fingers and spoke provocatively.
Come?
What a fart! ! !
Farrell rolled his eyes angrily. In this case, the chance of finding the target was less than one thousandth.
The most important thing is that, except for the Knights of God, everyone on this giant ship is his.
snort!
At this moment, a cold snort came out, and the illusion created by Anastasia was instantly shattered.
"Henric!"
Anastasia gradually faded her smile.
Henrik, a fortune teller, can be said to be her natural enemy. Not only has his domineering power been developed to the extent that he can predict the future, but he can also divine the loopholes in her hypnosis skills immediately.
Coupled with the ability to lock fruits, the battles between the two are usually crushing.
And she was the one being crushed!
"Is there something going on?" Hilliard looked over suddenly.
He knows Henrik very well. He is not the kind of person who likes to meddle in other people's business. His relationship with Farrell is also very average, and he will not stand up for him just because of a little friction.
So……
Henrik nodded, his expression a little solemn, "Pitrus, you're going to be killed!"
What? ! ! !
Everyone's eyes widened with disbelief on their faces, even Hilliard.
Logically speaking, this battle was under their watch, and there was no chance of an accident happening. Even if Pietrus was defeated, they would have enough time to rescue him. How could that situation arise?
Is Joey Boy really that scary?
"What's the cause of death?" Lu Si'en asked.
His life-saving ability is not as good as Farrell's, and his hard power is not as good as Pietrus'. If the enemy has any special means, he must take precautions in advance.
"Beat!" Henrik said calmly.
That sea of rubber was not used for offense at all, but as a protective layer to prevent them from carrying out rescue operations in order to achieve the purpose of annihilating them one by one.
It seems that the opponent knows very well that when the combat power is not dominant, only by defeating them one by one can they turn defeat into victory!
"Assault?"
Lu Sien blinked, as if he hadn't reacted yet.
What a joke!
The majestic Joeyboy, the invincible overlord who has ruled for thousands of years, will take the lead in beating up a small Tianlong?
For this kind of thing, let alone the legendary Joyboy, even the Four Emperors of the New World would not be so shameless.
…
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
During the conversation, Pietrus fired continuously at the rubber tsunami. Each special bullet was amplified hundreds of times, bursting out with unparalleled destructive power and attacking the Straw Hats.
However, this ball of rubber was too huge. Even if the area in contact with the sea surface was hollowed out, it was still not completely penetrated.
Instead, because of this pulling force, the area expanded exponentially and rolled over overwhelmingly.
"Catch the thief first, capture the king first, that's a good strategy!" Pietrus crossed his arms over his chest and commented in a leisurely manner.
After getting the Momo Fruit, he thought he was very close to Hilliard. As long as he developed it a little more, he would be able to replace him in no time.
in addition,
The Momo Fruit not only changes the size and power of bullets, but also increases the speed of the esper a hundredfold.
He is confident and can handle any situation with ease!
"Did you succeed?" Looking at the rubber sea with only the last gap left, Luffy breathed a sigh of relief.
Facing so many powerful enemies, it is foreseeable that almost everyone in the Straw Hats will have to fight one against two, or even one against three. Unexpected incidents will inevitably occur, and it is best to deal with one of them first.
"Innocent!"
With a sneer, Pietrus was about to leave along the gap to give the other party a big surprise, but found that the exit was suddenly blocked by a huge palm.
This is?
Nico Robin's powers! ! !
Rumble——
In a stunned moment, a laser cannon shot out and pierced his chest.
"Super~success!" Franky blew the muzzle of the gun in his palm and made a victory sign.
"Ahem~ Cyborg Franky?"
"Hey, do you know someone? Although they are black, but they have the same exclusive clothes as the Tianlong people, so they must be from the government!"
"I'm actually... getting hurt by this kind of miscellaneous fish!"
Pietrus coughed violently, as if roaring, his red eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes, and his excessive anger made his gradually blurred vision clear again.
He is the great Saint Pietrus.
The king who is destined to surpass Hilliard, surpass Joyboy, and create a glorious new chapter for his family!
Because of his carelessness, he was injured by ants and was eventually ravaged to death. This ending was completely unacceptable.
However, seeing Zoro, Aoki and the others coming towards him, Pietrus' heart was filled with despair!
He has become a turtle in a urn.
Due to the extrusion of rubber, the entire internal space is only a few thousand square meters, and it is getting smaller and smaller, and the true power of Momo Fruit cannot be exerted at all.
At the same time, with such a large amount of rubber, even with his strength, he could not penetrate an escape window.
Now it seems that in the end, it is nothing more than being beaten to death, or suffocated to death by being squeezed by layers of rubber!
"Help--"
"Captain Hilliard!!!"
Waves of echoes echoed through the inside of the rubber space, and Pietrus wailed heart-breakingly regardless of the pain in his body.
This is the fear of death!
As Celestial Dragons, their fear of death is several times greater than that of ordinary people. No one enjoys the beauty of life more than them, and no one cherishes this 'perfect' world more than they do.
They are the makers of rules, and all living things, whether humans or animals, are under their rule——
Let it be at your disposal, take whatever you want.
"Kacha~Kacha~"
As if hearing Pietrus' desperate cry, a tearing sound sounded, and the dark space was broken open like a giant cocoon, allowing the bright sunlight to shine down.
Looking up,
It was Hilliard who was like a god descending to earth. He clasped both ends of the crack with his hands and slowly floated down from the air.
Those arms filled with golden light are wrapped in the power of rules, and they are as beautiful as a dream!
"A very good plan."
After his body landed on the ground, Hilliard spoke indifferently.
As the Straw Hats appeared in the rubber sea, the figures a kilometer away were shattered like bubbles.
Obviously, it was all a phantom created by Nami using the weather stick!
They did underestimate the Straw Hats. As Henrik said, if the situation was allowed to develop, Pietrus, who was set on fire, would probably be beaten to death.
"Huh~"
Pietrus breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn't know why the leader took action so early, it seemed that he was at least saved.
At that moment, he thought he was dead. After all, his cry for help was not transmitted due to the isolation of the rubber.
As for the emotion of being rescued,
That kind of thing does not exist at all in the world view of the Tianlong people. He will not be grateful to Hilliard for it, and Hilliard also does not need his gratitude.
Although they are different from ordinary Dracos, some of their psychology is the same!
If the person who saved him was not Hilliard, or did not have Hilliard's strength, Pietrus would have slapped him away.
After seeing his miserable appearance, I could only atone for my sins by dying!
Perhaps this is ungrateful in the eyes of ordinary people, but for them who consider themselves descendants of the Creator, allowing the other person to live in the same world as them is already the greatest favor.
"Now we're in trouble." Looking at Hilliard falling from the sky and Farrell and others walking slowly, Aoki's pupils tightened for a while, and then he made a defensive move.
He had heard too many legends about the Knights of God. After all, it was the reserve organization of the Five Old Stars, and it was impossible for him to be unaware of it.
He just didn't expect it to be so shocking, especially when the man in front of him made him feel the depression he had not seen for a long time.
"Pirates?" Hilliard looked at Aokiji, the meaning was self-evident.
This was his last act of mercy.
As for whether to accept it or not, it is not within his scope of consideration.
"That's right." Qingzhi glanced at Sauron and the others beside him and replied with certainty.
He already has a clear plan, so naturally he won't give up so easily, even if the other party is a Tianlong.
"Joyboy?" After receiving the reply, Hilliard said nothing and turned his attention to the real owner, Luffy.
Aokiji doesn't matter. Nori and Pietrus join forces. As long as they don't underestimate the enemy, they can at least hold him back. What's more, Fegalande Geiringer is still here, so they can't make any trouble.
Their target is Joey Boy!
The national treasure has been obtained. As long as we find the 'King of Heaven', we can use its huge gene pool to copy Joey Boy's body, and then transform and guide Joey Boy's will. Mastering Joey Boy is not a luxury.
He originally thought that the 'national treasure' was the hardest thing to get, after all, that thing was handed over to Su Mu Qianhe by Doflamingo, but he didn't expect that it went surprisingly smoothly.
Everything is ready, now all that's left is the will of Luffy and Blackbeard!
"Monkey D. Luffy." Luffy corrected him. He hated the name Joeyboy and didn't want to be anyone's substitute.
"Really, in that case, are you interested in following me to save the world?"
"Dragon people? Save the world?!!"
Luffy's eyes widened, no matter how crazy he was, he still couldn't connect saving the world with the Celestial Dragons.
"Don't look at me like that. I'm not crazy, nor am I one of those idiots you met in the Shampoo Islands."
Hilliard's tone instantly turned cold.
Their plan is to sacrifice the 'd' clan and Joyboy to suppress the new rules, and then use the national treasure to create a large number of races that are beneficial to improving the world, thereby saving the world.
at the same time,
He also had some guesses about Rafdrew's secret treasure and Joyboy's plan.
It is nothing more than abandoning the Four Seas and the first half of the Great Line, and isolating the new world today.
This is why Joyboy originally named that area of the sea the New World.
Once the plan fails, he leads Ark Noah and those close to him to escape.
Therefore, the big secret treasure must be something necessary to separate the new world, or a super energy source for Noah to sail!
In his opinion, this plan is not as good as Vegapunk and Sumu Qianhe's.
Overall, Vegapunk's plan is the most scientific.
Meteorites are continuously attracted by gravity, thereby expanding the size of the world. As the size increases, the previously fatal wounds will naturally become smaller.
Of course, this is only one aspect. With human reproduction capabilities, this plan will one day come to an end.
Therefore, there must be corresponding auxiliary plans, which are to reduce the size of 'harmful' races such as humans and sea kings, reduce the damage caused by organisms to the world, and achieve a balance.
But this plan also has a fatal flaw. It can easily attract larger-than-expected meteorites and bury the whole world with it!
As for Qianhe's plan, Hilliard believed that there was no need to implement it, and it seemed that Qianhe himself had given up.
Devouring the old world with the world inside the door may sound good, but that's for ordinary people.
According to Henrik's divination, the new world will absorb the lessons of the old world's demise, thereby producing some special antibodies.
in short,
It was a world where strong men could never be born.
Not only that, after these ability users die, the rules of Devil Fruit will be absorbed by the new world one by one, and eventually they will all disappear.
As time goes by, it will only take a few hundred years, and when only Su Mu Qianhe is left, it will be time for the world within the sect to turn its back on guests and completely resolve the hidden dangers!
The thought of using one person's power to fight all the rules, and using one person's power to fight the entire world, makes people despair.
Even if you win by luck, you have lost everything, and the gain outweighs the loss!
"Following you? Rather than this, I am more interested in being an enemy that must be destroyed."
"Hahahaha~"
On the side, Sauron's eyes rested on Fegaland Geiringer, and the corners of his mouth gradually rose, eventually turning into a maniacal smile.
The deadly edge that could not be concealed even if he tried his best to suppress it, coupled with the famous sword at his waist, made him feel on pins and needles and trembled all over.
A great swordsman not weaker than Hawkeye and Keiichi Sonobe!
No, it is slightly inferior to the Hawkeye who has completely transformed now. Based on the perception of color, it should be close to the Hawkeye two years ago.
no doubt,
This is his dream opponent!
"It seems that my companion has rejected it for me." Feeling Zoro's strong fighting spirit, Luffy grinned.
At some point, failure flattened their temperament, making them hesitant and hesitant.
But Qingzhi's words reminded him that he was free and should not doubt his own strength and choices, even if the road ahead was a dead end full of thorns.
At this moment,
He just wants to enjoy the battle!
After pinching his nostrils, Luffy took out today's newspaper and pointed at the content on it:
"It was not two years ago now. A mere Celestial Dragon dared to fight against the Four Emperors. His courage is commendable!"
…
