One Piece: The World King Who Emerged from the White Town

Because there were other people waiting for him up there.

Numerous branches wrapped around the Golden Lion, who used the Float-Float Fruit to dodge and weave through the air.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, these branches would likely have little chance of controlling the golden lion.

But as expected, an unexpected event occurred immediately.

Accompanied by a strange melody, the Golden Lion felt his blood rushing to his head, his chest tightening, his breath becoming short, and his head throbbing with pain.

It was Scratchman Apoo who made his move after waiting for so long. He used the sound waves generated by the Sound-Sound Fruit to affect Shiki, causing Shiki's dodge in the air to suddenly slow down.

In that brief moment, Teach managed to control the vines and branches to successfully entangle it tightly.

Then, a muscular man appeared out of nowhere!

Using the Fusion Fruit, Urouge, transformed into a Gundam, slammed the unavoidable Golden Lion into the ground with a single punch.

Just as Urouge withdrew his fist, Drake, who had transformed into the Yamata no Orochi form, unleashed a torrent of venom into the deep pit with his eight heads!

Blazing fire, concentrated acid, wind blades...

After the Yamata no Orochi wreaked havoc, Reiju arrived.

The three poisonous dragons completely engulfed the golden lion, who was trying to escape.

Abel found a good spot and sat there, watching helplessly as the once invincible legendary pirate, Golden Lion, finally fell silent under the siege of Reiju and the others.

Only after the golden lion, barely clinging to life, was thrown in front of him like a dead dog, did he ask a question out of curiosity.

"You're Shiki the Golden Lion? You're far weaker than Whitebeard."

"Wouldn't it be better to hide and eke out a living? Why do you have to come here to die?"

Chapter 1012 Demon Blade

Golden Lion didn't want to pay attention to Abel, but what Abel said was so infuriating that it broke Golden Lion's defenses.

"I want...you...to...be buried with me."

Golden Lion uttered these words haltingly, then immediately released the effects of the Devil Fruit power.

The next moment, the entire floating island suddenly lost its buoyancy and began to fall.

"Is this what you rely on?"

"With just this one island, you dare to trespass into my headquarters? Should I say you're brave, or should I say you're stupid and ignorant?"

Abel calmly raised his head and glanced at it, then slowly stood up.

Point your right index finger at the floating island in the air.

The terrifying energy began to rapidly condense into a huge sphere of light.

Then a very thick flash of light blasted directly into the very center of the floating island.

boom! ! !

A power powerful enough to distort spacetime immediately erupted.

The floating island was instantly blasted to pieces.

Along with it, the Golden Lion's ambition and pride were also shattered.

Capone Becky used his back to shield himself from all the falling debris and other random things.

A crisis was resolved so easily.

The casualties for the entire Dragon Hunter Guild are... zero!

What a load of bullshit Golden Lion! It's not even worth a second glance!

Bondi Wald was once again glad that he had made the right choice.

Only by following Chairman Abel could he possibly avenge his brother.

Abel gently blew on his finger.

There's one thing about the skill 【Wang Xu's Flash】that he's always been very satisfied with.

That means you can launch it in any posture you want.

A man’s happiness is that simple.

Abel glanced at the golden lion; the light in its eyes had completely vanished, and it looked like a walking corpse.

"Throw him into the dungeon."

"Yes, President."

If it weren't for the crowd and the presence of many eyes, Abel would have already sent the other man to hell.

In reality, the golden lion, who was imprisoned in the dungeon, didn't even last two hours before he breathed his last.

Then Abel easily obtained a Floating Fruit.

……

A few days later, the newspapers published news about Abel and the Dragon Hunter Guild again.

It tells the story of Shiki the Golden Lion, who recklessly challenges Abel, one of the Four Emperors.

"Who is this 'Golden Lion' Shiki? Is he famous? How dare he challenge Chairman Abel?"

"Didn't the newspapers say that 'Golden Lion' Shiki was a legendary pirate who was once on par with Pirate King Roger and Whitebeard? He single-handedly caused a ruckus at Marineford and was the first person to escape from Impel Down."

"Sounds pretty impressive, but I doubt he's very bright. Of all the people to challenge, why did he have to go and throw his life away?"

"Who can argue with that? Abel, one of the Four Emperors, was brutally killed by the newly recruited 'Seven Deadly Sins' without even lifting a finger."

"The Dragon Hunter Guild is just too strong now. The Celestial Dragons won't be able to sleep soundly."

"Shh, keep your voice down, are you out of your mind?"

"Tch! What are you afraid of! Don't you even know if the Celestial Dragons dare to go out on the streets these days?"

"I wonder how many people are waiting to use the Celestial Dragons' heads to try and make a fortune."

"Just wait, the Dragon Hunter Guild will eventually conquer the Red Line and wipe out all those high and mighty Celestial Dragons!"

"Well said! Support the Dragon Hunter Guild! Slaughter the Celestial Dragons!"

The Dragon Hunter Guild may not be good people, but the Celestial Dragons are even worse.

If one of them must be destroyed, then the vast majority of ordinary people would support the elimination of the Celestial Dragons; this is the will of the people!

……

As the time for the World Government's World Conference draws ever closer, the atmosphere on the high seas grows increasingly tense.

Abel searched for the souls of humans who were trapped in gluttony, but to no avail.

On the contrary, the 699 [fallen human souls] were easily collected.

Just to be on the safe side, Abel wanted to complete the final upgrade and activate the final form of Baby-5 Weapon Girl before the final battle.

That leaves only one solution.

Abel used 5000 trade points to place a wish order and bought a [human soul trapped in gluttony].

Then baby-5 ate it.

The seventh form of the demonic weapon—the Demon Blade—has finally been activated!

……

Abel took Baby-5 to a deserted island and began their experiment.

"Baby-5, Demon Weapon Demon Blade Form".

Baby-5 effortlessly transformed into a beam of light and appeared in Abel's hand.

This demon sword is about the same size and length as an ordinary samurai longsword, and its blade is entirely purple.

"Soul Resonance!"

The next moment, the demon blade seemed to be wrapped in countless whirlwinds, but upon closer inspection, they were not whirlwinds at all, but countless illusory souls wailing in agony.

Behind Abel, an illusion of a warrior clad in armor appeared.
