Pirates: Going out to sea? Cultivate to the Mahayana stage first

Kuma, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea who was supposed to respond to the call of the World Government and participate in this battle, was now wearing a black windbreaker and unexpectedly stood beside Ryu.

All he could hear was the cold and hollow voice of Big Bear, like a ghost, echoing in Garp's ears: "Vice Admiral Garp, it's been a long time..."

Hearing this, Karp turned around suddenly, with a flash of shock in his eyes that was difficult to conceal: "Big Bear? Why are you here?"

"Vice Admiral Garp, I should have been here." Big Bear's calm words were like a thunder, exploding in Garp's ears.

In an instant, Garp's eyes widened, and his heart was filled with shock. He could never have imagined that Kuma, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea who seemed taciturn and loyal to the World Government, was actually an undercover agent of the Revolutionary Army lurking within the enemy!

At this moment, an unparalleled powerful momentum came roaring in like a violent hurricane.

Long's figure approached quickly like a ghost, his black robe fluttering in the wind, like a battle flag flying in the air. His sharp eyes locked tightly on Garp, the sights of the father and son met, time seemed to stand still at this moment, and the air around them seemed to become extremely solemn because of the tense confrontation between them.

"Father, stop it."

Long's voice was deep and firm, like an echo from the Netherworld, shaking everyone's heart. "This world has become rotten, and it urgently needs a thorough reform to break the shackles of darkness."

Garp clenched his fists, and the muscles in his arms trembled slightly with anger and confusion.

He stared at his son, with an indescribable complex emotion flashing in his eyes: "Long, are you going to betray the Navy too?!"

Hearing this, Long couldn't help but sneer, his laughter was full of ridicule and disdain: "Betrayal? Father, your so-called loyalty is nothing more than blind loyalty to those corrupt ruling classes. Everything I did was to save this oppressed and enslaved world. I just chose a truly righteous path."

Before Long could finish his words, his body suddenly moved and instantly turned into a terrifying hurricane, rushing towards Garp with overwhelming force.

Seeing this, Garp let out an angry roar and gathered all his strength on his right fist. The inky black armament domineering instantly wrapped around it, and he faced Long's attack with unparalleled power.

There was a loud "bang" and the whole space began to shake violently.

The domineering aura and the power of the hurricane collided with each other, and the huge energy storm generated exploded like an atomic bomb explosion.

This destructive force raged wildly in the surroundings, tearing the nearby floating islands into pieces, turning them into dust and dissipating them into the void.

Just as the majestic and huge dragon was fighting fiercely with Garp, a black shadow suddenly appeared on the battlefield. It was as fast as a ghost and flashed in front of the golden lion in an instant.

Looking closely, it turned out to be An Nuo. He was holding a long sword made of bright starlight in both hands, the sword was shining with dazzling light, and the sharp tip of the sword was pointing straight at the strong chest of the golden lion.

"Golden Lion, your mission has come to an end."

An Nuo said in a cold voice with an expressionless face. His voice seemed to come from the Netherworld, making people shudder.

At this moment, a strange purple light suddenly flashed in the golden lion's only remaining eye.

It turned out that the mysterious thread of dreams had already quietly invaded and completely corroded his consciousness.

After a long period of continuous excavation and exploration of his own spiritual power, the Dream-Dream Fruit possessed by Anno has now successfully evolved to the realm of awakening the Devil Fruit.

And the poor golden lion unfortunately became the first test target of this powerful force.

This old guy who was once so arrogant was actually controlled mentally by Annuo without even realizing it.

Even the successful formation of the Pirate Alliance and the full support of the Golden Lion were a conspiracy carefully planned by Annuo.

Then, Annuo skillfully manipulated the Golden Lion that had lost its consciousness, and led the entire huge floating fleet to attack Mary Geoise aggressively.

At this moment, the Golden Lion, who had been moving freely, suddenly paused, and his movements became extremely stiff and slow. Due to his loss of control, the islands floating in the air seemed to have lost their support, and began to shake violently, and gradually collapsed.

"Hahahahaha...Annuo, do you really think you have the ability to control me?!"

Despite being in such a difficult situation, the Golden Lion still laughed wildly.

With his deafening laughter, he held the two famous swords named "Yakura Ten" and "Deadwood" tightly in his hands, and slashed at An Nuo like crazy. For a moment, the swords flashed and the shadows of the swords were intertwined, and the sharp sword energy whistled through the sky, setting off gusts of wind and huge waves.

An Nuo had an icy smile on her lips, and that smile seemed to freeze the air around her. The starlight sword in her hand suddenly shone brightly, as dazzling as the brightest star in the night sky suddenly exploding. With a deafening roar, a powerful force gushed out from the sword, slamming into the golden lion's sword energy with overwhelming force.

In an instant, the Golden Lion's originally powerful sword energy was like fragile glass, shattered in an instant, and turned into fluorescent spots that dissipated in the air.

An Nuo's dream threads were like extremely flexible and deadly poisonous snakes, silently rushing towards the Golden Lion's brain. These threads easily penetrated the Golden Lion's defense and pierced deeply into his mind.

With the invasion of dream threads, pieces of memories that had been tampered with and hidden for many years surged out like a flood, madly attacking the Golden Lion's mind.

The truth of the thrilling Battle of God Valley forty years ago gradually surfaced, and the unknown secrets behind the death of the once powerful pirate captain Rocks were also revealed. What was even more shocking was that even the mysterious "blank century" illusion he saw when he fought against the Pirate King Roger in the life-and-death duel that year also clearly appeared in his mind.

This series of sudden memory shocks made the Golden Lion in great pain. He hugged his head tightly with both hands and let out a shrill roar: "Impossible! Yimu is...Ahhhh!!"

Under this huge mental stimulation, the Golden Lion completely lost control of his own strength. The many islands that were originally suspended in the air began to shake violently, and then huge rocks broke and fell, and the entire floating island group fell into chaos and collapse.

However, even though the Golden Lion was out of control at this time, he was still the great pirate of the old era who had roamed the ocean for decades, and his strength should not be underestimated.

Between those huge and exploding water columns, two figures rushed towards each other fearlessly!

Chapter 242 You are just a puppet

"Get out of here, you ignorant little brat!"

The golden lion's eyes widened, his hair stood on end with rage, and he let out an earth-shattering roar. He kicked up with a force as powerful as thunder at the two swords that were attacking him.

There was a crisp "clang" sound, and the two sword blades were kicked away by him.

A sharp blade called Sakura Ten is tied to the other leg of the golden lion.

He swung his leg and slashed it horizontally towards An Nuo's waist and abdomen. The sharp sword wind whistled past, bringing with it a sharp sound of breaking through the air, as if it was going to tear everything in front of it into pieces.

Faced with such a fierce attack, Annuo did not show any sign of panic.

She dodged the attack of the Golden Lion in a flash, just like a ghost. Not only that, she flicked her wrist slightly, cleverly removing the residual force brought by the impact of the Golden Lion's sword.

An Nuo exudes unparalleled domineering aura, and his powerful physical skills have reached an unprecedented new level because of the blessing of spiritual power.

At this moment, he was holding tightly in his hand a sword forged by himself. This sword embodied the essence of the most advanced craftsmanship at the time. Its quality was so high and its power was so great that even the legendary supreme sword might be slightly inferior to it.

As the battle unfolded, Annuo and his opponent swung their swords at the same time. The speed of both sides' swords was as fast as lightning, so fast that it was hard to keep up and dazzling!

In an instant, sparks flew where the swords intersected, accompanied by deafening, ear-painful sounds of metal clashing, which echoed throughout the sky.

In just a few minutes, the two had fought fiercely for hundreds of rounds. However, at this moment, something strange suddenly happened in the sky.

At some point, several huge floating pirate ships slowly emerged from behind the thick clouds. The decks of these pirate ships were densely packed with many vicious pirates.

When these pirates saw Annuo and another strong man fighting fiercely below, they were stunned at first, and then a look of surprise and doubt appeared on their faces.

One of the pirates widened his eyes and shouted in disbelief: "What on earth is going on? Lord Shiki was not held back by the navy hero Garp, but was instead entangled by such an unknown young man."

Another pirate looked around in confusion, muttering to himself, "Where is Garp? And who are those guys? Could it be that... they are the Revolutionary Army?!"

Then, another pirate pointed at An Nuo and exclaimed: "Who on earth is that kid? He can actually match Master Shiki's swordsmanship, it's hard to tell who is better!"

On top of Marijoa, Hina, who had been staring intently at the two people fighting fiercely, and was always ready to step forward to help without hesitation if Anno fell into a disadvantage, was suddenly attracted by the unusual movement in the sky. She suddenly looked up into the depths of the thick clouds, and saw several huge and mighty pirate ships suddenly appear in her field of vision.

In an instant, Hina's brows furrowed tightly, and her beautiful eyes revealed an extremely solemn look.

Looking back at the once ambitious Golden Lion who was extremely keen on building a huge force and always regarded himself as the overlord of the ocean, even after such a long time, his character has not changed at all.

This guy never seems to like fighting on his own, and this time he actually brought such an astonishing number of subordinates at once.

Originally, Hina thought that the fleets that appeared before were the entire force of the Golden Lion's operation, but now it seems that it is obviously just the tip of the iceberg.

The golden lion in mid-air looked down at An Nuo who was trying his best to resist his fierce attack. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and a hint of contempt quickly flashed across his eyes.

He said in a tone full of disdain and arrogance: "Humph, you ignorant boy, although the abilities you have demonstrated are indeed somewhat strange, they are nothing more than that after all."

As the words fell, the Golden Lion suddenly gathered all his strength between his legs without reservation. At the same time, he skillfully guided the flow of air around him, as if he could control the entire world.

Then, a terrifying force as surging as a mountain torrent surged wildly around him, and finally poured down along the extremely sharp sword in his hand like a flood! "Golden Lion Slash: Ten Thousand Ultimate Cuts!"

As an angry roar came from the golden lion's mouth, a dazzling sword light with the power to destroy the world slashed towards An Nuo below.

The long sword in the hand of the Golden Lion glowed with a terrifying light. This was a sword that he swung with all his strength! Its lethality was extremely terrifying, and compared with the previous attacks that were not painful at all, it was a world of difference.

An Nuo felt as if the space around him was twisting and squeezing towards him. The invisible pressure was as heavy as a mountain pressing down on an egg.

He did not panic, but took a deep breath, and the spiritual power in his body gushed out like a surging torrent.

In the blink of an eye, the air within a radius of several hundred meters centered on him seemed to be suddenly sucked away by an invisible giant hand, forming a huge vacuum zone.

At the same time, the emptied air carried a deadly and terrifying aura, like a roaring beast, pouncing towards the sword energy slashed by the golden lion.

"Boom"

There was a loud bang, like thunder, deafening! The two terrifying sword blades collided fiercely, immediately causing a huge explosion that shook the world.

The cyclone surged wildly, the storm gathered rapidly, and the powerful impact force plunged everything around it into chaos.

The originally peaceful earth began to tremble violently, as if it was about to be torn into a bottomless abyss; the clouds in the sky were also stirred into pieces, as if doomsday had come.

The aftermath of this fierce collision spread rapidly in all directions like surging waves. Wherever it went, it was invincible. Even the members of the Flying Pirates who were watching the battle from a distance were affected. They all turned pale and involuntarily took a breath of cold air.

Under such a violent energy impact, An Nuo stayed steadily in the air without any shaking.

On the other hand, the Golden Lion's body was like a meteor hit by a cannonball, falling straight to the ground, and finally smashing heavily into the ground, raising a cloud of dust that covered the sky.

Looking at this thrilling scene from afar, the people of the Feikong Pirates were filled with shock and disbelief. Before this, although they were somewhat wary of An Nuo's strength, they were not afraid.

But that sword strike just now was clearly the strongest strike that Captain Golden Lion used with all his strength! I didn't expect that guy to be able to take the blow, and it didn't seem like he was hurt too much...

In this vast world full of mystery and danger, when on earth did such a terrifying monster appear?

Just as everyone was astonished, a pirate cadre suddenly widened his eyes with a look of horror on his face, as if a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, making him instantly remember some important information.

He cried out in surprise, "Wait... I remember now! This guy is Anno! He's the ruthless guy who killed Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea!"

This shout was like a thunderclap, and the other pirates came back to their senses as if awakened from a dream, with expressions of disbelief on their faces. You know, An Nuo was not well-known before this, and he was neither a member of the pirate camp nor a member of the navy.

It was such a seemingly unknown person who was able to successfully kill Crocodile, the most famous of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and even Doflamingo's capable generals died at his hands.

Such an amazing record is truly astonishing.

Even though Anno has such brilliant achievements, he may just be a slightly stronger opponent to the Golden Lion Shiki, who has been traveling around the world for many years and has unfathomable strength.

But the question is, why did this person suddenly appear here, bringing such a huge variable to their originally perfect plan?

"Damn it!"

Finally, one of the pirates couldn't hold back his anger and fear, and started cursing, "How did our plan turn out like this? First, that old bastard Garp was guarding here, and now a powerful enemy like Anno shows up out of nowhere. What's worse is that there are even the Revolutionary Army involved! What the hell is going on!"

At this moment, although the seriously injured Golden Lion Shiki was a little conscious, he could still vaguely hear the panicked discussions from his subordinates.

He endured the pain and tried hard to open his heavy eyelids, wanting to see the chaotic situation before him.

The golden lion suddenly turned its head like a mad lion, its eyes as big as copper bells burning with rage, staring fiercely at the group of subordinates behind it.

His face became extremely ferocious due to anger, and he roared: "You guys! What are you still doing there?"

The golden lion looks like a ferocious beast ready to devour its prey, which makes people shudder.

He waved his strong and powerful arms and continued to roar: "What should we do now? Do you still need me to teach you personally?"
