Pirates Devouring Fruit

Dawn chased again hoping to get closer and raised his eyebrows as he watched the golden lion keep distancing itself from him.

"The scope of your fruit's ability is quite broad." The Golden Lion panted and said, "I'm really curious about what kind of fruit it is."

"Well, I can't say what kind of fruit it is, but what is undeniable is that it has brought me an extraordinary transformation." Dawn stood in the air, confronting the golden lion as if he was chatting with a friend, and he didn't seem to have any sense of urgency at all.

The Golden Lion knew why.

At this moment, both of them were using their abilities in the air to control the lions created by their abilities to fight continuously, and the damaged parts would be repaired quickly, and it was indeed consuming the physical strength of both of them.

However, he was clearly no match for his opponent in the war of attrition, and his right arm was cut off and bleeding profusely, so he thought the opponent had eaten him.

Just like experienced hunters hunting wild beasts, they do not rush to pounce and kill the prey after inflicting sufficient wounds.

On the contrary, they will exercise their patience to the utmost, harassing the beasts while keeping their distance, constantly consuming the opponent so that it has no time to rest, and then wait for the opponent to bleed to death and become weak.

Only at that moment was the murderous intent revealed.

And now, this old lion who once dominated the sea felt like he was being hunted, with death filling his heart.

But the lion still held its head high, stood straight in the sky with sharp eyes, and looked fearless.

Those who travel on the sea have long since disregarded life and death. Those who are afraid of death die faster.

Golden Lion had thought about the fact that he would die one day. He had thought that he would die when his plan was completed and the plan to destroy the East China Sea was implemented, but he had never thought that one day someone would come and kill him.

"My revenge is not complete yet, how can it end like this!!" The golden lion roared, and the floating island not far away was directly controlled by the golden lion and smashed towards Dawn.

"As expected of a legend on the sea, he can still fight like this after being so badly injured." Dawn exclaimed, "But such an attack can't hit me!"

The air flow behind him continued to increase his speed. Dwayne landed in front of the golden lion in an instant with a "shaved" posture, ready to punch it head-on!

But suddenly, the surrounding wind seemed to have received an order and began to gather around Dawn. The huge wind pressure instantly solidified Dawn's body.

"Bang!!"

The Golden Lion's only remaining left fist smashed into Dawn's stomach with violent force, sending him flying.

Then, as the Golden Lion waved his left hand repeatedly, several sword energies wrapped in wind blades slashed towards Dawn.

"Resist the halo!"

The shield immediately blocked the attack, but was shattered by the next blow, forming a strong wind that blew Dawn away, avoiding the remaining blows.

"That's exactly what I want, Ouroboros. Let's end this quickly." Dawn wiped his lips and sneered.

Because this was the last opponent that Dawn was going to face before he could concentrate on training and waiting for the plot to begin, and his opponent, Golden Lion, was a great swordsman with rich combat experience, so Ouroboros did not intervene most of the time.

But that doesn't mean Ouroboros doesn't exist!

The Golden Lion is no longer useful for honing his skills. With only one hand left, he is now just an old lion trapped in despair and waiting to die.

Now his only use is the Floating Fruit.

The original intention of relying on consumption to gradually erode the opponent caused a strong counterattack from the opponent. It seemed that this old lion was going to bite Dawn hard before dying and not let him have an easy time.

Then, what follows is a real life-and-death battle!

"Hi~"

Ouroboros responded, and without Dawn saying anything, several wind blades slashed towards the golden lion, and even during the flight, the wind continued to bless it, making the wind blades stronger.

The air flow behind him whistled again, and Dwayne leaned forward again and punched the golden lion.

Seeing this, the golden lion snorted coldly, and the wind pressure gathered again, but it seemed to be repelled by an invisible force and could not get close to Dawn's body.

"It's not enough that you can control the air!" Dawn sneered, his muscles tensed up, he transferred the power to his right arm, and punched down violently.

The golden lion's expression changed, and he raised his fist with a slightly ferocious look and punched forward.

"boom!"

The huge force made the Golden Lion tremble all over, and the terrifying force made his arm wail, but Dawn's next attack was already coming!

As a last resort, the Golden Lion placed his wrapped arms horizontally to block!

Continuous fist shadows kept hitting him, and Dwayne seemed tireless. Every blow brought pure huge force, making the Golden Lion suffer terribly, as if he was going to beat him to death!

"Kaka!!"

Finally, under Dawn's continuous attacks, the golden lion, which had only one arm left and three limbs missing, was kicked away by Dawn.

Large mouthfuls of blood spurted out without a second thought. The Golden Lion gritted his teeth and had to stabilize his body while squeezing out all his strength to deal with Dwayne who pounced on him again.

The punch-to-flesh attack continued in the air. In the end, Dawn even gave up on defense and let the golden lion's attacks hit him, with his fists hitting the golden lion's body in an even more violent manner.

Pure, raw violence was playing out in the air.

Chapter 264 The legend is destroyed!

"It looks like you've been defeated, Golden Lion."

Dawn said this and threw another violent punch.

"puff!"

The Golden Lion spat out blood again. He didn't have time to reply to Dawn's words. At this moment, he didn't know how many punches he had received from Dawn under Dawn's continuous attack.

While Dawn becomes more adept at handling things, he also represents the difficulties and impending end of the Golden Lion.

It’s not that he doesn’t use his abilities, he just wants to create some distance.

But the ink-colored little snake on the opponent's shoulder suddenly burst out with amazing strength. No matter what ability he used to attack, the ink snake would use its ability to resist.

Did this guy actually have a hidden trick before?

Golden Lion felt a sense of humiliation in his heart, as if he had never experienced so much humiliation in his life, and this battle kept revealing it.

Whether it was forcing him to drop his sword, cutting off his arm, or hiding his strength to fight him, the young marine in front of him was constantly picking at his nerves and making him furious.

"I am a golden lion!" He roared, and invisible air waves gathered from the sky. Countless huge wind lions roared, like a lion king on parade, and pounced on Dawn.

"Are you fighting for your life?" A black blade appeared in Dawn's hand. "Ouroboros, go all out!"

After giving instructions, Dawn ignored the group of lions in the sky. The black blade flashed through the air like a flash of lightning and slashed directly at the head of the golden lion.

The golden lion roared and used its body's ability to a higher level, but the black sword's edge locked onto its heart.

Sensing the threat of death, the Golden Lion's expression became fierce, but he took the initiative to meet the blade, and his only remaining left hand tightly wrapped around Dwayne's body to prevent him from escaping.

"Little devil, taste the last of my wrath!"

As soon as the words fell, the whole world seemed to fall into a twisted world of ripples. Countless wind pressures pressed towards the two of them as the center point. Terrifying wind blades gathered in the air without cost. The wind lions even had to deal with more than Ouroboros.

"Awakening? No, the awakening that explosively squeezes life force!?" Dawn was shocked when he looked at the scene in front of him.

This situation was truly terrifying, with an attack from thousands of troops surrounding the two of them.

If it was just an awakening, the previous group of wind lions and the means of controlling the air would have shown it long ago, but the attack of the golden lion before him was too terrifying.

If the fight between the two was not enough to kill with one blow, then the power of the Golden Lion's move at this moment has far exceeded the power of the previous fight between the two, and it can be life-threatening if one is not careful.

Like a natural disaster!

Although Dawn was surprised, he did not stop moving his hands. After the black blade pierced into his heart, it twisted it directly, destroying the heart.

But at this moment, killing the golden lion would not be able to stop the overwhelming attack.

"Hahahaha, little devil, go to hell with me!" The Golden Lion coughed up mouthfuls of blood. After his heart was destroyed, the last bit of his strength had long since disappeared, and his whole body was fixed on the black blade.

"It's not that easy to kill me!" Dawn grinned, released the black blade and fixed the golden lion by his side.

"Ouroboros, create an empty shield on the periphery!"

Dawn gave instructions, and Ouroboros gave up resisting the attacks from all around. A spherical shield enveloped Dawn and the golden lion.

"Rashomon!"

Dawn put his hands together, and a square shield appeared directly inside the circular shield. The dark domineering aura directly dyed it dark, blocking the boundless offensive from his sight.

"Let go, Ouroboros, and then work with me to build a shield defense inside."

Following Dawn's instructions, the outer shield roared and blasted the black cube away a little, and then it was quickly stopped by the continuous attack.

But even that was enough.

At this moment, the Golden Lion was so weak that he couldn't control this catastrophic attack to lock onto Dwayne. He could only watch with tears in his eyes as Dwayne moved away from the center.

Even though it was only slightly shifted, it was away from the center and avoided the biggest attack.

As the black box creaked, Dawn began to use his Armament Haki at his full strength to maintain the outermost shield.

But even so, the armament color continued to break and reached the second layer of shield.

As time went by, Dawn's armament color had been consumed by more than half, but the offensive outside still showed no sign of stopping.

The second layer of shield maintained by Ouroboros and Dawn has begun to play a major role in defense.

"Oh!"

The outermost layer of shield was completely shattered by the wind pressure before the Armament Haki could wrap around it. Dawn remained calm and directly covered the second layer of shield with the Armament Haki.

At the same time, Ouroboros began to create an air shield inside again, constantly compressing and reinforcing it.

A golden-red halo wrapped around Dwayne's body. This "healing halo" could not only heal injuries, but also quickly restore physical strength.

After all, "power-stealing" is an ability that Dawn developed when he was weak, so he is naturally very skilled in controlling it.

When the healing aura was developed, this ability was incorporated into it.

As time went by, the harsh squeaking sound like sharp claws rubbing against steel continued, but the consumption of armament color was gradually exhausted.

In terms of domineering power, Dawn's power is already comparable to that of an ordinary person, but this power is far less than the desperate attack of Lao Mu's Golden Lion in the original novel, so it should not be underestimated.

It can only be said that the stronger a person's strength declines faster in the later stages of their career, and a slight decline in strength in the early stages is not worth mentioning at all.

The Golden Lion who was defeated by Luffy in later generations was a Golden Lion whose strength had seriously declined after seven years of silence. The only reason he was able to win was because of Luffy's protagonist aura.

When the surrounding armament color faded, the shield turned translucent again, and everything around him appeared in Dawn's eyes again.

It can be seen that the most violent attack of this attack has subsided and is now gradually calming down. Dawn, who has been maintaining the shield, can easily sense this.

"Looks like I won, Golden Lion." Dawn looked at the Golden Lion, who was almost half dead, and smiled, "Uroboros, I'll maintain the shield, go and eat the Float-Float Fruit."

The golden lion seemed to have regained some strength. After hearing Dwayne's words, he looked up at Dwayne, but only saw the little black snake opening its mouth wide and attacking him.

This was the last scene that the Golden Lion saw before his death.
