One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha

The deepest part of the underworld.

The Hero's Altar had already been pierced and was now in ruins by the Sword of Damocles.

A large number of corpses controlled by the black-bearded man lay in the ruins.

Some of the corpses are still slowly reassembling within the soul fire.

Loki, carrying royal weapons, stepped onto the altar.

The ancient patterns on the weapon's surface lit up, dispelling the black flames that were trying to engulf his body.

Loki could clearly sense that the connection between the altar and the Hero's Tomb had been destroyed by Victor.

However, the central soulfire core is still operating.

A corpse dressed in ancient priestly attire slowly rose from the ruins.

It was once a royal priest who guarded the altar of heroes.

Now, however, his body is filled with the soul fire of the black beard.

Black flames gushed out from his eye sockets and mouth and nose.

The priest of the dead spoke in a hoarse voice:

"Loki..."

"The sinner who killed the king..."

"Are you really going to destroy the final resting place of the heroes of Elbaf with your own hands?"

The bodies that had fallen nearby rose again.

He stood between Loki and the core of the altar.

Loki did not stop.

"Dead heroes should obediently go into their coffins."

He raised the royal weapon.

Black and red lightning bolts exploded on the surface of the weapon.

"I'm not going to be a dog for foreign pirates."

The Conqueror's Haki erupted suddenly.

The soul flames in the eyes of many ordinary corpses shook violently.

Loki charged head-on into the horde of the dead.

Loki's first shot landed.

Several ancient giant corpses, along with the altar pillars, were smashed to pieces.

The second strike is a sweeping attack.

The Soulfire node hidden in the root system on the left exploded on the spot.

Large amounts of black fire gushed out along the cracks.

However, it quickly went out after losing its node.

The right node is buried beneath several giant corpses.

Loki grabbed the corpse at the front and used it as a weapon to smash it against the altar.

boom!

The second node collapsed along with a large area of ​​ground.

The priests of the dead manipulated the roots of the World Tree, entangling Loki from all directions.

Loki did not dodge.

The royal weapon, imbued with Conqueror's Haki, forcibly tore apart all the root systems in one strike.

The final node is hidden inside the body of the priest of the dead.

The priest of the dead opened his arms.

A large amount of soul fire erupted from his body.

It attempted to reconnect the Heroes' Tomb before the altar completely collapsed.

Loki did not continue attacking the surface of the corpse.

Using his royal bloodline and connection to the altar, he pinpointed the location of the soul fire's core.

The royal weapon suddenly thrust forward.

puff!

The weapon pierced the chest of the priest of the dead.

It also pierced the core of the soul fire hidden within.

A chaotic roar erupted from the black flames.

Loki gripped his weapon tightly with both hands.

"Blackbeard!"

"Get out of Elbaf!"

The power of Conqueror's Haki and the royal weapon erupted simultaneously.

The Soulfire Core shattered completely from the inside.

Boom!

The hero's altar began to collapse.

The black patterns on the altar surface went out one after another.

Inside the Heroes' Tomb.

A resurrected ancient giant is raising his battle axe, ready to strike down another giant.

Before the axe blade could fall, the black fire in its eyes suddenly disappeared.

The massive body paused for a moment.

He then collapsed heavily to the ground.

The second one.

The third one.

More and more of the deceased are losing their mobility.

In just a few breaths, all the giant ancestors in the Heroes' Tomb fell down again.

This time, they did not recover.

The tomb-guarding giant looked at his ancestor, who had fallen silent, with tears in his eyes.

"it's over……"

"The heroes can finally rest in peace."

The middle and lower layers of the World Tree.

The numerous Netherworld behemoths, stimulated by the Soul Fire, suddenly stopped attacking.

The black flames in their eyes gradually died out.

After losing control of Blackbeard's power, some of the giant beasts regained their instincts and fled back into the depths of the World Tree.

Some of the severely injured behemoths simply collapsed.

The giants no longer have to contend with both the army of the dead and the beast tide at the same time.

The altar completely collapsed.

Loki is situated amidst constantly falling rubble.

The royal weapons sent tremors through all layers of the World Tree.

The deceased is now at peace.

But explosions, cries, and the roars of giant warriors continued to emanate from the middle levels.

A giant guard who followed Loki into the Underworld said:

"The World Government has taken control of the middle-level villages."

"They kidnapped many children."

"Returning via the royal ancient road will require at least—"

"Too slow."

Loki interrupted him immediately.

He planted the royal weapon into the ground.

The pent-up energy within the body is released without reservation.

Black scales spread rapidly along his arms and chest.

The sharp dragon horn pierced his forehead.

Huge black wings spread out behind it.

Loki's body swelled rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, a massive black dragon appeared in the ruins of the underworld.

The dragon's body was covered with hard, jet-black scales.

Its wings spread out, almost blocking out all the light above the underworld.

Black and red lightning bolts crackled between the dragon's horns.

The black aura emanating from the corner of his mouth landed on the stone, instantly corroding it.

Snake-Snake Fruit - Mythical Zoan type.

Nidhogg form.

In the mythology of Elbaf, Nidhogg dwells at the roots of the World Tree, feeding on its roots.

It symbolizes destruction, disaster, and the end of the world.

This is why the giants have always considered Loki's power to be an ominous sign.

But at this moment, Nidhogg did not attack the World Tree.

Loki spread his wings and charged straight down to the ground through the path blasted by the Sword of Damocles.

........

Middle layer of the World Tree.

Nami stands above Zeus, striking the government soldiers who are blocking the road with lightning.

Sanji continuously used aerial walking to travel at high speed between the transport ship and the village.

Each time he appears, he saves a giant child from the enemy.

Franky kept firing cannonballs, directly blocking the Titan capture weapon.

Brook froze the chains with the chilling air of the underworld.

Chopper, meanwhile, was tending to the injured giants and children behind the village.

There are also a large number of giant warriors who have not given up the fight and are fighting alongside the Straw Hat crew.

But Qilin Gom remained standing atop the transport ship.

He kept creating strange creatures and obstacles to delay the rescue.

The Holy Land's direct forces are preparing to send the last batch of children onto transport ships.

A transport ship began to take off.

The sound of a giant child crying came from inside the ship's cabin.

Sanji tried to get closer, but was blocked by the giant monster created by Kirin Gom.

Several attacks fell simultaneously from above.

The target is not only the Straw Hat Pirates, but also the Titan civilians still near the transport ship.

Just as the attack was about to land, the World Tree's branches suddenly trembled violently.

boom!

The ground cracked open from below.

A pair of enormous black dragon wings burst forth from the crack.

The dragon's wings spread out in full, protecting all the giant civilians beneath it.

The government's attack slammed into the dragon's wings.

The explosion kicked up a large cloud of smoke and dust.

When the smoke cleared, the black dragon still stood tall.

The protected giants raised their heads.

The fear on his face quickly spread.

"Nidhogg..."

"It's Loki!"

Loki glanced back at the giant behind him.

Some of them had insulted him while he was imprisoned.

Some people threw stones at him.

Some parents have told their children:

Never get close to the monster that killed the king.

Even now, the children are still instinctively afraid when they see Loki in his dragon form.

Loki offered no explanation.

He raised his dragon claw and smashed the special chains that bound the adult giant.

Then he yelled at Nami and the others:

"What are you all still standing there for?"

"Go save those brats!"

Nami paused for a moment.

They quickly raised the weather baton.

"Did you hear that?"

"Sanji, keep saving people!"

"Frankie and Brooke, leave all the transport ships behind!"

The giant warriors who were still resisting also began to move again.

Loki then turned around to face the massive dragon.

He stood alone in front of Qilin Gom.

Kirin Gorm looks down at Loki.

"The sinner who killed his father."

"He actually dares to return as a prince?"

Loki's eyes were cold.

"Using a group of children to threaten others."

"Is this all the God Knight is capable of?"

Kirin Gom's manipulation ability.

A large number of strange creatures appeared from all around the village.

Loki opened his dragon mouth.

Corrosive black dragon breath swept across the battlefield.

All the monsters, along with the government-captured weapons, were engulfed by dragon breath.

Then, Nidhogg flapped its wings suddenly.

The violent wind pressure capsized several transport ships.

Conqueror's Haki erupted from the dragon's body.

A large number of Holy Land troops lost consciousness on the spot.

Qilin Gom looked solemn.

Loki transformed from his full beast form into a humanoid form.

Black scales still covered his entire body, dragon wings spread out on his back, and the royal weapon fell back into his hands.

Qilin Gom launches a frontal attack.

Loki did not dodge.

The royal weapon, imbued with Conqueror's Haki, slammed down fiercely.

The first strike shattered Qilin Gom's defenses.

The second blow broke his arm.

The third blow struck him squarely in the chest.

Qilin Gom's body flew backward like a cannonball.

It crashed through several thick branches in succession.

Loki once again transforms into Nidhogg.

A massive dragon claw descended from above, slamming the Qilin Gom into the tree trunk of the World Tree.

Black dragon breath erupted at close range.

Boom!

Large swathes of the World Government's positions were engulfed in flames.

Loki precisely controlled the dragon's breath, ensuring it did not affect the evacuating children or giant civilians.

Nidhogg, which once symbolized destruction, has now become the wall protecting Elbaf.

They looked up at the center of the battlefield.

Loki's enormous dragon body blocked everyone's path.

One of the rescued giant children was the first to raise his arm.

"Prince Loki!"

The sound wasn't loud.

But this caused the nearby giants to fall silent at the same time.

A young giant who had once thrown a stone at Loki hesitated for a moment, then also raised his weapon.

"Prince Loki!"

More and more giants joined in the cheering.

"Prince Loki!"

"Prince Loki!"

Nami, Sanji, Franky, Brook, and the others also breathed a sigh of relief.

They didn't know the whole truth about Loki and Harald.

But at least for this moment, Loki has proven himself through his actions.

Amid cheers.

The ruins struck by the dragon's breath suddenly glowed with an eerie light.

A black contract mark appeared on Qilin Gom's chest.

The broken arm began to heal.

The collapsed chest rose again.

The shattered bones quickly reconnected.

Even the flesh and blood that had been corroded by the dragon's breath were restored to their original state.

A moment later, Qilin Gom rose again from the ruins.

There were almost no visible injuries on his body.

The giants' cheers gradually subsided.

Sanji frowned.

"This guy should have been dead by now."

Nami also noticed something was wrong.

"This is not a normal recovery caused by a Devil Fruit."

"It's that mark."

Qilin Gom moved his newly grown arms.

He looked at Loki with indifference.

"Mortals can never comprehend the power of gods."

"The Blessed Knight of God—"

"I won't die at your hands."

Loki stared at the black mark on the chest of the Kirin Gorm.

He could sense that the power that restored the other party did not belong to Qilin Gom himself.

Loki did not back down; he reverted to his human-beast form.

Royal weapons were slung over the shoulders, and black dragon wings slowly unfurled.

"A mortal can't kill a knight of death?"

Loki grinned, revealing his sharp teeth.

"It's best not to die."

"I can keep playing forever—"

"I'll beat you until you can't stand up again!"

Black and red, domineering lightning coiled around the royal weapon.

Loki charged at Grimm again.
