The blade's edge collided with the energy pillar, unleashing a blinding light. All Bai Wu could see were dark red lightning swirling wildly in the void.
A massive blast of air swept outwards, instantly leveling the surrounding buildings.
No, it's direct annihilation!
On the giant robot and the "Tengshe" that had retreated to a safe distance, Jhin, Quinn, Stussy, and several captains who hadn't fainted were present.
Standing by the ship's railing, her hair whipped about in the wind, she stared in horror at the scene before her, a scene that resembled a living hell.
Even Stussy.
No matter how many times we meet again, we will be shocked by the earth-shattering power.
Ray, held in Stusi's arms, had an alarmingly bright eye.
Jin clenched his fists, his gaze resolute.
This level of combat is beyond his capabilities.
But next time, he definitely won't be a spectator!
Even the agents of the World Government were so shocked that they forgot to breathe for a moment.
"This...this is the pirate who stands at the top of the sea!"
The golden lion was covered in wounds and blood, even its golden hair was stained crimson.
At this moment, he was kneeling on one knee, leaning against "Sakura Ten", his breath weak and listless, and blood was oozing from the corner of his mouth from the cigar he was biting.
The golden lion's upper body clothing has been destroyed.
Just kidding, actually the lower half of the clothes are destroyed too, it's not like they're wearing super tight pants.
Do you think this is Dragon Ball? You can hit your pants and it won't hurt.
Lei Luo, standing above the clouds, shook his head speechlessly.
It's now confirmed that everyone in One Piece truly shares the same brain.
The tactic of provocation always works.
If even the Golden Lion is like this, then Roger, Garp, and even this silly dragon next to him are even more likely to be like this.
I reckon only Sengoku and Whitebeard could hold back.
Of course, the premise is that you don't stand with the group of people mentioned above, otherwise you will most likely get infected as well.
"Hahahaha...cough cough...hahahaha!"
The golden lion coughed up blood incessantly, yet the lion remained arrogant and continued to laugh, "I never imagined that I, the golden lion, would be defeated by two brats."
Feeling the countless broken bones and shattered internal organs within his body, Golden Lion struggled to his feet and shouted loudly towards Kaido and Rayleigh above the clouds:
"Hey, you two brats!"
Kaido slashed the "Eight Precepts" onto his shoulder, looked down at the golden lion below, and laughed: "Orororororo... So, you want to beg for mercy?"
Now that you've said that, Lei Luo has to add: "Even if you beg me, I won't let you go!"
As if humiliated, the Golden Lion, ignoring the pain all over his body, roared with a ferocious expression: "Bastards, how could I, the Golden Lion, beg for mercy from you two brats!"
Rylo knew that Shiki would never beg for mercy. Now, Shiki was ambitious, unruly, and determined to rule the world.
Later, he even dared to storm the Navy Headquarters alone for Roger's sake.
Not that stray dog with his head stuck in the ship's rudder, both legs broken, unable to use Haki, his fighting spirit completely gone, hiding in the sky for twenty years, and finally defeated by Luffy's Gear Third.
Kaido looked at Shiki with amusement and said jokingly, "Don't get excited."
"I'll provoke you..." The golden lion's blood surged, and he spat out another mouthful of blood.
"Orororororo..." Kaido let out a vengeful, wicked laugh.
Golden Lion tried his best to calm himself down and grinned maliciously, "Hey, you two brats, let's do it again!"
The golden lion raised an eyebrow and laughed arrogantly: "Hehehehe... I said, let's do that move again!"
He was already seriously injured, so running away was out of the question, and these two couldn't let him go either.
Since that's the case, then dying under their strongest move would be a perfect ending for myself.
Lei Luo probably guessed what the Golden Lion was thinking: this lion wanted to use his and Kaido's most powerful moves as his grandest funeral.
"I'll help you!"
Lerokaido exchanged a glance and tacitly countered "Sun Devourer" and "Eight Precepts" once again.
Golden Lion took a deep drag on his cigar, which burned out instantly.
With a satisfied exhale of thick smoke, the Golden Lion raised his twin swords and slashed down, laughing loudly.
"Hehehehe..."
The blade's edge collided with the energy pillar once more, but the Golden Lion was no longer at its peak.
Amidst this devastating power, the golden lion's figure gradually blurred. The light from his twin swords dimmed, and his entire being was gradually consumed by the energy.
Within the light, the golden lion's arrogant laughter could still be heard: "Hehehehe..."
When the light finally faded, the golden lion was nowhere to be seen. Only a devastated battlefield remained.
Kaido and Leylo landed slowly. King, Queen, and the others rushed over from a distance and were all shocked by the horrific scene.
Looking at all this, Lei Luo couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He took a deep breath and said, "A generation of heroes has come to an end."
Perhaps, this is the best ending for the Golden Lion.
To die in battle is the highest honor for a lion.
It's better than dragging around a crippled body, hiding from the sky, and barely surviving for decades.
Finally, due to old age and declining health, he was defeated by Luffy in Gear Third, and his reputation was ruined.
There's nothing to be sad about; I still need to heal Jhin.
The group turned and left.
As they walked, Lei Luo suddenly spoke up: "Jin, why don't you find a girl?"
Jin stammered, "Mr. Lei Luo, I'm still young."
Kaido grinned and said, "Oh ho ho ho ho... You're not young anymore."
Even the usually stoic Jin couldn't help but blurt out, "Why...why are you suddenly bringing this up?"
Quinn, with a cigar in his mouth, chuckled sarcastically, "The first mate is probably worried that if something happens to you, your entire Lunaria clan will be wiped out."
"No, Mr. Kaido and Mr. Raelo said back in Punk Hazard that they would protect me."
"Oh lo lo lo lo lo..."
"Hahahaha, you kid."
Chapter 63 New Bounty
On the warship, Sengoku, wearing a naval "justice" cloak, leaned on the railing and gazed into the distance with a profound look in his eyes.
"Bulu Bulu... Bulu Bulu..."
Sengoku reached into his hand and pulled out a Den Den Mushi: "Moshi moshi, this is Sengoku."
A deep, resonant voice came through the Den Den Mushi: "Sengoku, there's no need to go to Wano Country. Let's turn back."
Sengoku nodded knowingly: "Kaido and Raelok were defeated by Shiki so quickly?"
Over the years, every time the Golden Lion got into a fight, the Navy would send out warships.
Their goals are all the same: when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman profits—to retrieve the corpse of the golden lion.
The Float-Float Fruit combined with Shiki's personality makes him a ticking time bomb.
Therefore, even though each attempt ended in failure, troops were still dispatched each time.
"No, it was Shiki the Golden Lion, who was killed by Kaido and Rayleigh together." The Den Den Mushi's voice grew deeper.
Sengoku stared wide-eyed in disbelief, blurting out, "How is this possible?!"
Sora knew how shocked Sengoku was; when he first received the news, he even doubted it was true.
The rear admiral who defected from the Navy back then, and the experimental subjects of Punk Hazard, have now become great pirates capable of killing Shiki.
The Navy needs to reassess the threat posed by the Beasts Pirates to the world.
After a moment, Zhan Guo came to his senses and said respectfully, "I understand. I'll go back now."
After Sengoku returned to the navy, he convened an emergency meeting with all the senior naval officers.
The threat posed by the Beasts Pirates has risen to a new level, now standing on par with the Roger Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates.
Based on information about all the Beasts Pirates' officers sent back by CP agents from Wano Country, the Navy has set new bounties.
Captain of the Beasts Pirates, Emperor of Wano Country, Kaido of the Beasts, bounty: 3,311,110,000 Berries.
Leylo, vice-captain of the Beasts Pirates and King of Wano Country, has a bounty of 2.555 billion!
King, the Battle Commander-in-Chief of the Beasts Pirates and the Shogun of Wano Country, has a bounty of "888 million".
Queen, a member of the Beasts Pirates, head of research at Wano Country, and known as the Plague, has a bounty of 655 million.
Bakkin Gom Stussy, a member of the Beasts Pirates and the finance minister of Wano Country, has a bounty of 566,600,000.
Matitau, a member of the Beasts Pirates and head of the propaganda department of Wano Country, has a bounty of 423 million.
Engralaric, the first division commander of the Beasts Pirates, has a bounty of 365 million.
Raja, captain of the second division of the Beasts Pirates, has a bounty of 355 million.
Kuru, the third division commander of the Beasts Pirates, has a bounty of 291 million.
Ahar, the fourth division commander of the Beasts Pirates, has a bounty of 264 million.
Leia, a member of the Beasts Pirates and the fifth division commander, has a bounty of 222 million.
Captain of the Beasts Pirates, sixth division commander...
The new bounty, coupled with the death of the Golden Lion that dominated the front page of newspapers, quickly caused a huge uproar at sea.
The World Government and the Navy don't mind publicizing the deeds of pirates, especially when a pirate kills another powerful pirate group.
The navy will also promote them and win them great prestige.
Pirates are driven by fame and fortune, especially in the New World, where a higher bounty means greater prestige and, more importantly, more challenges.
You can't expect bounty hunters to capture those kinds of people; of course, you should let those self-important pirates fight each other to the death.
On the high seas, the ones who kill the most pirates are not necessarily the navy, but possibly the pirates themselves.
However, if it's something like a Marine Admiral being killed, a Celestial Dragon being killed, or a Marine base being invaded, they usually choose not to report it, downplaying the incident and letting it go.
In taverns across the land, pirates, merchants, and bounty hunters were all enthusiastically discussing the current strength of the Beasts Pirates.
"Thirty billion! Kaido is about to catch up with Roger and Whitebeard!" a pirate exclaimed.
"And then there's that Lei Luo, a former rear admiral in the navy, who's now a notorious pirate with a bounty of 2.5 billion. Life is truly unpredictable," another person chimed in.
"So, the three strongest pirate crews on the sea right now are the Roger Pirates, the Whitebeard Pirates, and the Beasts Pirates."
"Otherwise."
The Roger Pirates were having a banquet on an unnamed island.
For them, who can't live without a feast, landing on an island is also a reason to hold a banquet.
Looking at the captain laughing heartily, the crew drinking arm in arm, and Shanks and Bucky arguing heatedly, First Mate Rayleigh smiled and shook his head.
What a free and carefree group of people!
Rayleigh pulled out the bounty money he'd bought for the newspaper on Newsbird, adjusted his glasses, and began reading.
After reading the contents of the newspaper, the usually calm and collected first mate's eyes widened suddenly, and he exclaimed in surprise, "This is truly a major event!"
At that moment, Roger came up with a grin and put his arm around Rayleigh's neck: "What are you doing, Rayleigh? Why do you look like that? What did the newspaper report?"
Rayleigh's expression was grave as he truthfully stated, "Shiki the Golden Lion was defeated by the Beasts Pirates in Wano Country?!"
Roger shook his head, somewhat doubting whether he was drunk, and asked again uncertainly, "The golden lion you mentioned, is it that golden lion?"
