One Piece: Ascending the Divine Path

Chapter 83 Feld's Little Trouble! Major General Knight

A certain layer of the dream world!

"Hahaha! What a pathetic hero!"

The demon god, whose upper body emerged from the bottomless abyss, roared with laughter that shook the entire world. His horns were so sharp they could almost pierce the sky, and his wings, when spread, could cover the earth.

"You think you can defeat me?"

Knight looked up at the guy and gripped the holy sword in his hand tightly.

He was dressed in a magnificent golden armor, with a rose pinned to his chest.

"Hahahaha! You pathetic hero! Do you think that pitiful toy in your hand can sever the resentment and darkness that have accumulated within me for millennia?"

The demon god's voice made the sky tremble. He stretched out a giant claw, black flames gathering between his five fingers. "Look at this sky! It will soon burn! Look at this earth! It will soon crumble! And I will stand atop your corpse and devour your so-called hope!"

As he spoke, he suddenly spread his wings, and the whole world went dark.

Countless black chains emerged from the depths of the void, coiled with destructive lightning, and swept towards Knight like a thousand venomous snakes. The ground cracked, lava spewed forth, and the sky split open into an abyss-like rift, from which countless burning meteorites rained down.

The whole world was wailing, as if everything was coming to an end.

But at this moment, a ray of hope bursts forth.

The holy sword in Knight's hand shone with unprecedented brilliance, instantly dispelling the darkness brought by the demon god.

Knight leaped into the air, his golden armor gleaming in the sunlight.

He raised the sword above his head with both hands, and the holy sword emitted a pure white light, its blade slicing straight into the black torrent. The white light collided with the black light, the space trembled, and the resulting shockwave dispersed all the surrounding clouds. The torrent was split in two, dissipating into countless fragments of light.

In the next instant, Knight's figure appeared before the demon god, and the holy sword pierced through his chest without any resistance, the tip of the sword protruding from his back.

The demon's eyes widened, the savage grin on his lips froze, and he only managed to let out a hoarse whimper before his massive body tilted backward and plunged back into the abyss, kicking up dust like a collapsing mountain.

"How is that possible—"

The demon roared in disbelief, "I am the embodiment of the world's malice, destined to devour the world's darkness—"

"That's enough, the lines are so cringeworthy they're making my hair stand on end."

Knight casually swung his sword, slicing the demon god's head off.

The demon's enormous head tumbled in the air, and suddenly, he let out a shrill, eerie laugh, "Goo goo ga ga! Hero, in truth, I am your father."

The world freezes.

Immediately, everything began to dissipate.

Darth Vader, who are you?

Knight, expressionless, conjured a light screen by swiping his finger across the air. He then moved his finger across the screen.

"The Strongest Hero? That's so cliché, your taste needs improvement."

Well, besides reminiscing about his past life by reading novels and watching movies, Knight also selects some well-received works, expands them into small worlds, and then embarks on an unknown adventure.

This feature has already been implemented on the terminal.

However, it requires a very high level of access, which is something that all the creators in Dream City are still far from achieving.

The reason it wasn't opened up immediately was because Knight felt that the public's threshold shouldn't be raised too high all at once.

The Dream City is already so captivating that everyone lingers there.

"Lord Knight."

In the void, behind Knight, Luna's figure appeared out of thin air.

"Is the banquet over?"

Knight turned around.

"Yes,"

Luna nodded slightly. "Yamato is very happy. The Devil Fruits she brought have been given to Miss. Bakkin: two Ancient Zoan and three Ordinary Zoan."

Knight nodded slightly. "Shall we get an Ancient Zoan Devil Fruit weapon as a temporary solution?"

"There's no need."

Luna shook her head. "Ordinary animals won't be of much help. It's better to have another Zoan-type ability user."

"Um."

Knight didn't say anything.

That's true. Apart from Mythical Zoan types, what use are ordinary Zoan-type weapons?

Spandam's Elephant Sword was pure gimmick, and Mr. 4's Hook Baseball Launcher wasn't even a gimmick.

Unless it has a special mechanism like Solt's Serpent Sword, there's really no need for it.

Of course, Anthony didn't think so, so he now has a Devil Fruit weapon as he wished.

"Lord Knight,"

Luna said, "Yamato can't wait to go on an adventure. He wants to find Whitebeard and the remnants of Roger's pirate crew."

"Let her go."

Knight didn't care. "Let her go to the Kingdom of Giants and find Jabba first."

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, both Jabba and Whitebeard will likely like Yamato.

Even though she is Kaido's daughter.

Unfortunately, blood ties are never the most important factor in this world.

Just like Roger's successor wasn't Ace, but Shanks, and then Luffy.

Yamato can indeed be considered, to some extent, the successor of Kozuki Oden.

Let her make use of all these connections.

"clear."

Luna nodded slightly. "Directly arranging for one of our pirate crew members might expose her relationship with us. I've asked Gaston to arrange for a few experienced female crew members to go to sea with her."

"Um?"

Knight looked at her with some surprise. "A woman?"

Has the all-female team phenomenon spread all over the world?

"Lord Knight, aren't you quite fond of her?"

Luna said calmly, "So I think she should keep a certain distance from other men."

"Sooner or later, there will be men on her boat."

Knight chuckled and said, "I always wanted her to travel the world, search for treasures, and recruit more fighters."

"Yes."

Luna nodded slightly.

Lord Knight did not refuse.

In other words, let's arrange for a few women.

"Oh, right, Lord Knight, there's one more thing."

Luna seemed to remember something and said, "Just now, Feld said he was in a little trouble."

"Huh? What's going on?"

Knight raised an eyebrow slightly.

Feld is his moneybag, and he can't afford to have any problems until his power reaches a certain level.

He said a group of people were stealing his business.

Luna said, "That group of people opened a bank that offers loans at much lower interest rates than his. They are well-off, growing rapidly, and quite powerful. Feld can't do anything about them."

"Oh? Interesting."

Knight asked with great interest, "Who are those people?"

"According to Feldto, the group first made their name at an auction held by Doflamingo, where they stole Devil Fruits from the auction and then gradually started their business in the underworld."

Luna's words gave Knight a strong sense of déjà vu.

Could it be that "the leader's name is Gild Tesoro, a Paramecia-type Gold-Gold Fruit user"?

"So it really was him?"

Knight's lips curled into a smile. "Then you should go there yourself, Luna. That man is very valuable."

The world's richest man in the movie, a ruthless character who is said to be able to shake the Celestial Dragons with his Bailey.

His strength is also extraordinary. Although he was beaten up by Luffy in the movie, that was Luffy, the king of the movies. If Im entered the movie, he would also get beaten up. In fact, according to the setting, Tesoro is at the level of an admiral.

Of course, that's just the setting; you'll have to see it for yourself to know the actual situation, but it certainly won't be weak.

"Yes."

Luna nodded without any hesitation.

So, the next day.

At the port of the Kingdom of Dunas, two ships were ready to set sail.

"?"

Yamato stood on the railing of one of the ships, looking at Luna on the deck of the other ship. She was quite surprised. "Luna, are you going to sea too?"

"There's a mission that requires my personal involvement."

Luna answered calmly, turning to look at Yamato, "Are you ready, Yamato? From now on, it's your own adventure."

"Of course!"

Yamato clenched his fist excitedly, "I've been preparing since I was eight years old!"

Luna didn't say anything.

You'd better be really prepared.

But it doesn't matter.

Anyway, we've already prepared a group of experienced female sailors for her, and with Yamato's strength, reaching Elbaf shouldn't be a problem.

The distance wasn't far to begin with.

"Let's go then."

Luna said.

"Um!"

Yamato nodded solemnly and forcefully, "I'm off!"

As if that wasn't enough, she took another deep breath and loudly proclaimed to someone, "Yamato's adventure begins!!"

"Hahahaha! Elbaf, here I come! What is the land of giants like?"

Joyful laughter echoed throughout the harbor.

New World Front Section.

Naval guerrillas.

"Stand up straight."

Zefa glared at his disciple, who was standing rudely, and said, "What do you think we're doing right now?"

"There are no outsiders here, why make it so serious?"

Even as he said this, Knight straightened up, his eyes becoming much sharper.

"Hmm, that's more like it."

Seeing his beloved disciple instantly perk up, Zephyr nodded in satisfaction.

"Now I will read out the orders from headquarters."

Zephyr also became serious. "Commodore Knight, a member of the Navy Guerrilla Force, has made outstanding contributions during the war between Kaido and Wang Zhi, protecting the member states of the government and upholding the justice of the Navy. After discussion and decision by the Navy Headquarters, Knight is promoted to the rank of Rear Admiral."

"Yes."

Knight gave a military salute.

His promotion order finally came through.

Although only two months have passed since the last promotion, it was a special case, and the achievements and reputation were entirely worthy of it.

Zephyr personally helped Knight put on his major general's epaulets, then smiled and patted Knight on the shoulder, "Keep it up, Major General Knight."

"Professor Zephyr,"

Knight's body slumped again instantly, and his voice trailed off, "Your rank has been promoted, shouldn't my position be promoted too?"

"He's a major general now; he can't still command a single ship like when he was a brigadier general, can he?"

"Tsk."

Brigadier General Dol, who was watching the commotion from the ship's side, rolled his eyes.

You've already forgotten your roots after just being promoted, haven't you?

What are you so smug about?

A major general is a general, but a brigadier general is not a general?

Zephyr smirked. "Don't worry, I've already applied to headquarters for another ship."

"As expected of Teacher Zephyr."

Knight said sincerely.

The naval guerrilla force originally had only five ships, but in just two months, they have gained two more.

This is the largest warship in the navy; even the Buster Call only had ten.

"But before that,"

Zephyr glanced at Knight again and said, "You might be in for a tough time."

"Um?"

Knight raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

"Didn't Gion say that the World Conference is about to be held? Because the journey is long and full of risks, our navy will send many high-ranking officers to escort the member royal families attending the conference."

Zefa said, "Your reputation has been soaring lately, so headquarters has decided to strike while the iron is hot and let you show your face in front of the member states again."

"Tsk."

Want to be a bodyguard?

That's pretty boring.
