The Age of Heroic Spirits in the Eyes of the Reincarnated.

Chapter 128 Let the Old Generation Shine One Last Time
After leaving behind a shadow clone, Li Xia continued his journey.

In the calm belt not too far from the Devil's Triangle, he spent some effort and finally found a group of floating islands floating in the clouds tens of thousands of meters in the sky.

This is the current base of "Golden Lion" Shiki.

Shiki the Golden Lion, with long golden hair that looks like a lion's mane; but because of the rudder on his head, he looks more like a rooster when he looks in the mirror. He is the captain of the Sky Pirates, the user of the top devil fruit, the Float-Float Fruit, and a legendary pirate who was once as famous as the Pirate King Roger and the current Whitebeard, who is known as the "strongest man in the world". He is also the first pirate in the history of Impel Down to escape.

After escaping from prison by cutting off his legs, he attached two famous swords, "Sakura Ten" and "Deadwood", to his legs as prosthetic limbs.

A truly ruthless person.

The dozen or so islands floating in the sky before him, each exceeding three kilometers in size, and some even exceeding ten or twenty kilometers in size, were the work of this great pirate.

It is no exaggeration to say that if this guy wants, he can use the power of his fruit to send various islands to an altitude of ten thousand meters or even higher, and then release the ability of the Float-Float Fruit to launch a large-scale [Heavenly Shock Star] on the ground!
And Shiki can also deform and compress the islands controlled by his fruit ability.

And this is undoubtedly extremely terrifying.

In addition, this king does not rely entirely on his own devil fruit, he also has quite impressive domineering skills and swordsmanship attainments.

This is not…

Li Xia, who came here specially to visit, discussed hundreds of moves with him without activating the Samsara Eye Chakra mode.

"Chop!"

The golden lion in front attacked again.

He kicked out a huge sword energy with the famous sword Ying Ju on his foot.

That is the flying slash that all the swordsmen in this world can perform.

But when it was used on the golden lion's feet, it actually allowed this person to split the sea in the calm belt below! It was as easy as cutting tofu with a knife to cut through the sea surface for dozens of kilometers! I don't know how many sea kings living underwater were unlucky.

The sea turned blood red in an instant.

"As expected of the legendary super pirate!"

Li Xia dodged the attack and felt a real pain in his teeth: How could this guy be defeated by Gear 3 Luffy who has not yet awakened his Haki? Even if he doesn't use the fruit ability and doesn't consider the Armament Haki and Observation Haki, this swordsmanship alone can make Gear 4 Luffy doubt his life, right?

The movie version... is so damn unreliable, the plot is too extreme.

It swooshed through the air and charged towards the opponent at several times the speed of sound. It seemed that the black knife Qiu Shui could cut off the opponent's arm.

With a crisp sound of "ding", two famous swords with armed Haki blocked Qiu Shui's blade. Obviously, although his attack was fast, it was still captured by his keen observation Haki.

This also shows that Shiki's Armament Haki and Observation Haki have been cultivated to a very high level by the opponent.

After Li Xia shook off the old lion, he immediately tore through space and came to the top of the opponent, and then tore a huge gap in space at this position. Immediately afterwards, the sea water splashed down from the sky.

He connected this space crack with the sea.

"Huh? Spatial ability? And it sent so much seawater?"

After smelling the scent of the sea, Shi Qi immediately understood Li Xia's intention.

However, even if it is the sea, he can easily control it with the power of the Float-Float Fruit!

"The Lion's Might, the Land of Desire!"

The sea water that came into contact with his body seemed to lose its weight.

Then they turned into groups of huge water lions and pounced on Li Xia.

Someone above me had his eyelids twitching wildly:
"Devil Fruit Awakening?"

"That's right. Otherwise, how do you think I could control these dozens of islands around me to float in this windless zone for more than 20 years?!"

"I see."

This way,
Golden Lion...so miserable.

It is really a disgrace to one's later years.

Fruit awakening + domineering + powerful swordsmanship, but he was defeated by Luffy in the movie.

So miserable.

Originally, he was planning to deprive Blackbeard of his devil fruit after finding him, and then use the power of the Float-Float Fruit to use the Tenkai Shock Star infinitely on the holy land of Marijoa.

It is guaranteed to make the Five Elder Stars and Yimshuang’s Three Corpse Gods jump up in rage and smoke come out of their seven orifices.

But if the fruit awakening is needed to reach the level of Golden Lion controlling more than a dozen islands to fly to an altitude of 10,000 meters, then naturally it is better not to eliminate this top combat power. It would be best if you can win him over as an assistant. Even if you can't win him over, it would be good to let him cause trouble for the Five Elders.

"If I had the strength of a quasi-Six Paths level now, I wouldn't have so many concerns."

Such a strong person cannot be controlled by the chakra spirit ball.

Moreover, he has already divided a lot of chakra among Lucci, Bruno, Moria, and the [Four Shadow Clones], so it would be better not to disperse the chakra any further.

"Tear..."

The spatial channel reappears.

Li Xia disappeared.

Countless sea lions were left empty-handed.

"Little devil, is all you can do about hiding?"

The Golden Lion said dissatisfiedly.

The sword strikes covered the void again.

"The Lion, Chikiri... "

The densely packed sharp sword energy that could cut through a mountain thousands of meters high or even an island several kilometers across was like a big net, covering Li Xia who had just appeared.

Never doubt the destructive power contained therein.

"Oh no, my movement was predicted."

"Shenra Tianzheng."

A powerful repulsive force rushed out, and the sword beams were dispersed one after another.

The Golden Lion and the group of islands behind him flew a long distance before they stabilized themselves again.

"You have this ability?" Shi Ji was a little surprised and doubtful: this young man is indeed quite capable.

At this time, he gradually came to recognize Li Xia's strength.

"Mr. Shiqi, is this your way of entertaining guests?"

Li Xia asked in a deep voice.

"I just felt that you were the mysterious man who almost completely destroyed Mary Geoise. I didn't expect that I would actually guess it right."

The golden lion Shiki grinned with laughter.

He has an outspoken and bold personality.

"You are hiding in this uninhabited doldrums, and yet you have such well-informed information?"

"Just some lovely men doing their job."

"So, Mr. Shiki... are you interested in joining forces with me? Together, we can wipe out the Celestial Dragons from this world! Then, you and I can share the world equally."

Li Xia is full of sincerity.

There is no doubt that the opponent possesses super-shadow-level destructive power.

Whether it's the top-level swordsmanship or the ability of the Float-Float Fruit, they are both powerful and impeccable.

And they have been fighting until now. Li Xia is in such good shape because of his special physique and strong vitality. But what is the reason for the Golden Lion? He has used dozens of S-level forbidden techniques in the ninjutsu system, and the power of each move is at least comparable to the wind escape spiral shuriken or the lightning escape kirin. But this old guy didn't even breathe.

Such physical strength is really amazing.

Should we say that he is worthy of being the most ruthless man of the older generation, on par with Roger and Whitebeard?
"When watching anime and comics, I always hear that Akainu and Aokiji fought for ten days and ten nights before a winner was decided, Ace and Jinbe fought for five days and five nights without a winner, Kaido and Big Mom fought for a day and a night and were evenly matched, etc...."

"I used to think those records were exaggerated. I never thought that the top masters in this world could really use their ultimate moves at will."

'In this case, it makes sense to fight for several days and nights.'

Fortunately, I learned the three colors of domineering from Rayleigh first.

Otherwise, the opponent might force him to use the Samsara Eye Chakra Mode!
"Join forces? And then divide the world equally?"

The old lion raised an eyebrow.

"good."

Li Xia nodded.

Across from him, Shiki, who was holding a cigar, exhaled a puff of smoke and shook his head: "Not interested."

Ever since the death of his arch-enemy Roger, he has lost interest in fighting for the world.

"Roger, you fool, if you were my right hand, we could have ruled the sea together. Why would a man like you want to die?"

Can't figure it out.

He still can't figure it out.

"Mr. Shiki, I'm afraid you don't know that Roger's biological son Ace was captured by the navy not long ago?"

"What did you say? Roger has a son?"

Shiqi's eyes immediately widened.

His face was full of shock, as if to say, "Don't lie to me."

"Yes, he is actually Whitebeard's adopted son, the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates, Ace the Fire Fist!"

When the old lion heard this, the cigar in his mouth suddenly lost its fragrance. His lips trembled, and the cigar, which was still burning with sparks, fell off spontaneously and fell straight into the sea below.

Roger, you have a son, so let him be my adopted son.

Why hide it?

I will definitely train him to be a talent, and even hand over the Hiku Pirates to him. He will also be the future "uncrowned king" who will inherit your Roger Pirates and my Hiku Pirates.

"What is that bastard Whitebeard doing? How come he can't even protect his own son?"

waste.

Shiki said angrily.

"Don't blame Whitebeard!

He is old!

In addition, Ace was actually secretly thrown into the East China Sea by Garp and raised. No one knew of his existence, but he was unwilling to be lonely and set foot on the sea and entered the sight of Sengoku. With the wisdom of the Navy Marshal Sengoku and the all-pervasive intelligence system of the Celestial Dragons, it is not difficult to find out some things from the details after Ace became famous.

Fortunately, Whitebeard's insight is sharper!

A few years ago, when the Navy noticed Ace the Fire Fist and was about to launch a capture operation, they found Ace first and adopted him as their adopted son, which was actually a kind of protection! They also trained Ace the Fire Fist as the successor of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Unfortunately, due to some reasons, Ace left the Whitebeard Pirates a few months ago and acted alone. He was captured by two admirals of the navy not long ago.

Emmm… just like when you were defeated by four hands with your two fists and finally captured by Sengoku and Garp. "

The last sentence was just to touch the sore spot of Golden Lion.

"How's it going, Shiki?
Let’s join forces.

Overthrow the order established by the Celestial Dragons and create a new one.

In addition, I can help you save Ace before he is publicly executed by the Navy! I think you must hope that Roger's only bloodline can be preserved, right? "

Li Xia smiled.

"To join forces with you?"

"Not just me, it would be best if Whitebeard could join in as well! By the way, I've already informed Rayleigh, he will find a way to gather the old friends of Roger's Pirates!"

Then, Li Xia's smile became even brighter:
"Where the leaves dance, the fire will live on; the fire will continue to illuminate the sea and land, and allow new leaves to sprout."

"More than 20 years ago, after Roger was diagnosed with an incurable disease, he resolutely went to die and even chose to be publicly executed by the Navy. Wasn't it for the sake of turning into a flame?"

You, the older generation, should give yourselves one last chance to shine for the young people of this era.
