From the Wandenreich's escape to One Piece

But regardless of whether he was a great pirate on par with Roger and Whitebeard, his strength was at least greater than Beltz's at the moment.

What bad luck! It's been so long since I've been to the One Piece world, and this time I've run into Shiki the Golden Lion.

Should we go back now?

If he were to return to the world of Bleach now, he could simply disappear; with this ability, he would be virtually invincible.

This thing is much better than Shenwei.

But he didn't think about it for long before he came to a conclusion.

Let's first understand what level the Golden Lion represents, or what it means, before we talk about it.

Even if the Golden Lion is stronger than himself, if he shrinks back just because his opponent is stronger, then what kind of domineering spirit is that?

Moreover, the Golden Lion may not necessarily be there to deal with him.

Anyway, he has the trump card of traveling back in time, so even if a fight breaks out, he can still leave.

Soon, he saw a huge ship approaching.

It seems that the Golden Lion doesn't use islands as its ships yet, but instead flies a ship directly into the sky.

He stood on the bow of the ship with his arms crossed, smoking a cigar, and looking at Beltz with a strange grin.

Shiki the Golden Lion has long golden hair, and even his beard is golden.

"Hehehehe!!!"

Even from a distance, the golden lion's loud laughter could still be heard.

"Finally found you! Thief of God Valley!"

"I don't think so," Beltz said in a deep voice. "The things from God Valley were taken from me openly and honestly."

Although he took the treasure from the shadows, he did indeed run away.

However, the main force of God Valley was concentrated in another battlefield, but that doesn't mean Beltz was a thief.

"Say what you will," the golden lion said, extending his hand. "Hand over the treasure you've obtained, and I might spare your life!"

"hehe……"

Beltz, now transformed into a dragon, paid no heed to the golden lion's threat. He simply chuckled and said, "I've hidden the money in a place where no one will ever find it. As long as I don't tell anyone, you can kill me and I still won't be able to find it."

"Then I'll just kill you!"

The Golden Lion's eyes flashed with boundless killing intent. He had been crossing his arms, but now he suddenly drew the two swords from his waist.

Sakuragi, Kuji!

With a single swing, a blade pierced through the air, directly striking Beltz, who had transformed into a giant dragon!

puff!

Two blades of energy struck Beltz, leaving two bloody marks on his dragon body!

But Beltz was not greatly affected.

The two sword strikes from the Golden Lion were powerful, but they were not imbued with high-level Armament Haki or Conqueror's Haki. Without internal damage, it would be difficult to seriously injure him, who possesses dragon scales and the Bloodstained Armor.

It's just a minor injury.

"Um?"

The Golden Lion was somewhat surprised to see that Beltz was unaffected, but he quickly regained his smile.

"Heh heh heh heh, you've got some skill, no wonder you were able to take so much treasure from God Valley, even Kaido couldn't catch you!"

"In that case, join my Flying Pirates!"

The golden lion roared, "Join me, or die!"

What if I don't choose any of them?

Beltz opened his mouth and exhaled a breath of dragon's breath.

boom!

The scorching dragon breath blasted directly at the golden lion, but the golden lion sliced ​​the dragon breath apart with a single strike.

"So you chose the latter."

Golden Lion gripped his twin swords, adopting a fighting stance, seemingly ready to get serious.

Beltz could no longer fight the Golden Lion in his dragon form, which was essentially a form for easily defeating weaker opponents.

His enormous dragon body began to shrink, gradually transforming into human form, but he wasn't trying to enter human form; rather...

Human-beast form!

After such a long period of training, he has successfully mastered the human-beast form of the Azure Dragon Fruit!

In his human-beast form, he grew scales of a blue dragon, and even a dragon tail grew from his back. A fierce look appeared on his face.

His entire body seemed much larger than a human's.

The moment he entered his human-beast state, a black spirit blade appeared in his hand.

"You ignorant brat, do you think you're invincible just because you ate the Azure Dragon Fruit?"

Golden Lion didn't care when he saw Belz enter the human-beast form of the Azure Dragon Fruit, and said disdainfully:

"Let me teach you the most primal rules of combat in this world!"

He flew straight off the ship and swung his twin swords at Beltz as he flew!

"Shishiwei·Gosho Scroll!"

He swung his twin swords, instantly stirring up the massive air currents around him!

They were currently nearly 10,000 meters in the sky, and this strike swept over all the nearby clouds!

The thick clouds formed a giant lion's head, with its mouth open as if it were letting out a huge roar!

Facing the enormous lion's head, Beltz gripped the knife with both hands, and flames rose from the blade in the next instant!

The Azure Dragon possesses the ability to manipulate the elements, whether it be wind, fire, or thunder!

"Crescent Moon Anecho!"

He immediately cosplayed Ichigo Kakuzaki's moves, raising his black sword high and then slashing forward!

The flames and domineering aura on the blade formed a crescent-shaped slash wave, which directly blasted towards the roaring giant lion's head!

boom!

The flames collided with the clouds, and a powerful force erupted in the air. The massive clouds seemed to be burning at that moment, spreading across the sky and forming a huge fiery cloud.

At that moment, Beltz felt an immense force strike him, even more terrifying than the two blows the Golden Lion had delivered earlier.

Even after entering his human-beast form, he was still shaken by this terrifying power and retreated immediately.

The Golden Lion, however, remained unaffected and flew back as Beltz retreated.

"Hahaha, looks like your tough talk is better than your strength! How about it? It's not too late to regret it now!"

Golden Lion swung his sword again!

"I know the whereabouts of the ancient weapons!"

At that moment, Beltz said in a deep voice

? !

The golden lion's pupils dilated, and its movements slowed down.

Beltz clashed his black sword with his twin blades, and in an instant, a powerful black lightning bolt erupted!

The intense clash of powerful energy impacted all directions, but the Golden Lion did not exert any more force and instead directly withdrew his twin swords!

"What did you say?!"

The Golden Lion said in a deep voice, "Do you know where the ancient weapons are?!"

Golden Lion had also heard of the existence of ancient weapons.

Although he has not yet developed his power to its peak, he heard Rocks talk about the Ancient Weapons when he was in the Rocks Pirates!
