"Don't talk like you're going to die! Stupid boy!!!"
Accompanied by the fierce roar on the sky island, the violent energy field was filled with red and black ripples, pitch-black domination, dancing lightning, bursting flames, chaotic white steam, and criss-crossing swords.
Qi, and blood melting in the heat... Two figures, one clenching a fist wrapped in crimson flames, the other cutting out a blade that splits mountains and seas, like two meteors and meteorites colliding horizontally, several meters apart from each other.
, the fists and swords burst out with brilliant ultimate light, and then drowned everything.
Below, at the foot of Sky Island Cloud Mountain, chaotic light and shadow swayed on the faces of Zoro, Beckman, Lackey, Sanji, Nami, and Brooke, who were drinking and watching the battle.
Rumble…
The sky screamed and was already torn apart. After the collision and explosion, it was difficult to even detect the sight and color of the sky. Two figures flew out, one to the left and the other to the right.
Luffy's arm was hot and red, his shirt had been burned, and his face was covered with scars, but he grinned and fell from the side of the island with a puff of hot air.
Shanks also looked uncomfortable. His clothes were in tatters and he had many injuries, but he had a smile on his face. He seemed very pleased with Luffy's growth, but when he was about to fall from the other side of the island
, he looked at each other with his friends on Cloud Island, but when those guys were drinking and blinking at him, Shanks also blinked, you just fucking watched me fall?!
"It's so unloyal.................."
With a whoosh, Shanks fell from the island like Luffy. The sound gradually faded away and even echoed.
Beckman and the others glanced at the wine gourd on the cloudy ground nearby, which was still shaking slightly because it was put down in a hurry. They couldn't help but look at each other and shrugged.
Soon, the sound of "pop-pop" approaching was heard from the direction where Shanks fell. Soon, Zoro was seen jumping up and carrying the injured Shanks up with moon steps.
Zoro stepped on the ground of Shimagumo and glanced at the side. The sword Shanks was carrying was the famous sword Griffin, but now the blade had a slightly twisted arc.
"Oh? Did you see that too?" Shanks touched Griffin's slightly curved blade with a distressed look on his face and sighed, "Luffy is too cruel."
Sauron smiled and said, "Who can blame this?"
Shanks yelled: "It's Lin Qi's fault! Can't you teach me more slowly?" As he said that, he gave the middle finger to the brothers in his pirate group, "What a bunch of bastards! They actually let outsiders save your captain.
?”
"Haha." Beckman blew out a smoke ring, "You haven't reached the point where you can't move at all, have you? Why are you pretending to be pitiful in front of your brothers..."
"Haha, you trust me as the captain so much!" Shanks laughed, patted Zoro on the shoulder, and gave his second-in-command the middle finger again, who also smiled back.
Fatty Lucky Lu gnawed on a big chicken leg, took a sip of wine, and said with a smile: "However, the swordsman did not go to save Luffy, but went to save our captain, which is very surprising!"
"Didn't he say that they didn't fight to the point where they couldn't move at all?" Zoro rubbed his shoulders and exhaled, walked over and picked up his wine bottle and took a sip, "Luffy can walk on his own."
He glanced at the side where Luffy fell. Shanks was holding his suit trouser pocket and spinning the golden Frisbee back in a circle, giving him a look that said he didn't have to worry.
Shanks laughed loudly and patted Zoro's back wildly, "You also trust your captain! Luffy's taste in choosing partners is indeed as good as mine!" With that, he gave Beckman both hands.
, Lackey and the others raised their middle fingers, and the rest of the red-haired pirate group neatly responded to the red-haired one. It was really a happy pirate group.
"Besides, it looks like..." Beckman looked to the other side with a smile, "There is already someone on Luffy's side to help."
Whoosh!
A big rock flew up from under the clouds on the empty island over there, and sitting on it were Lynch, Robin, Chopper, and Luffy, who was giggling and waving to everyone.
"Sister Robin! Lynch! Chopper!" Nami waved her hand and turned into lightning. She fell on the flying rocks as if teleporting. She lowered her head and saw the pile of research materials, "What is this? Bloodline factor..."
Luffy stood up and shouted: "Lin Qi took care of that golden lion or something! He is very powerful, right?"
"Does it need to be mentioned that he is very powerful?" The red-haired man couldn't help but feel ashamed.
"The Golden Lion is dead too..." Beckman took a puff from his pipe and blew out smoke rings.
"I see." Shanks looked at the floating stone that carried Lynch and others up. Lin Qi and the others stepped off the stone one after another. Shanks raised his voice and asked: "Hey! Lin Qi,
Didn’t you say you’re not interested in Devil Fruits?”
"Huh?" Lin Qi asked doubtfully, "Can't I use it if I'm not interested?"
Shanks smiled and said: "Cunning boy."
Lin Qi looked magnanimous, "The Piao Piao Fruit is very useful, let me borrow it for fun. Besides, even if I don't need it, after you beat me to death, this ability will be convenient for you to carry down..."
Shanks led the team members to give Lynch a middle finger.
"How rude." Robin shook his head.
Chopper pointed to the side, and Lynch also gave Shanks and the others a middle finger. Not only that, the green and black iron rod also floated in front of Lynch's middle finger and stood upright, as if it had turned into an enlarged and enhanced version.
Middle finger...
Robin stretched out his hand and twisted the mechanism of the "Ding Hai Shen Needle". With a click, the green and black iron rod quickly enlarged and turned into a green and black iron pillar more than ten meters high.
While Shanks and others marveled at the towering green and black iron pillars, they said "Hey!" to Robin dissatisfied.
Even Chopper was shocked. Is this the so-called double standard? Robin.
Shanks smiled and said: "Lin Qi, you just said it wrong. You didn't say 'wait for you...'. Luffy and I have already finished fighting."
"Is the fight over?" Lin Qi looked at Shanks doubtfully, and the knife was a little crooked; then he looked at Luffy, one of his arms was slightly injured...Lin Qi shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like it. I
I don’t think it’s possible!”
"Do you really think Luffy and I are going to fight to the death?!" Shanks screamed with fangs.
Luffy also widened his eyes, "How cruel! Shanks and I are friends! We are not enemies!"
Lin Qi said modestly: "I don't want you to know whether you are alive or dead. It's okay to beat him half to death. After all, Chopper can be rescued, right?"
"Are you so modest?!" Beckman, Lucky Lu, Zoro, Brooke, and Sanji said angrily.
"You can't beat them to death!" Chopper said angrily, crossing his arms, nodding and sighing, "But yes, even if they are half dead, I can save them... Hehehe, there is no need to praise me so much,
I know I am very powerful, hehehe..."
"Humph, you have become very arrogant in recent years, kid." Shanks walked over and bumped the sides of Lin Qi's head with his fist, "Back then, I was riding a small boat in the West Sea and it was floating well. I don't know.
Who was the one shouting with all his strength, 'Help! The Navy is arresting someone!!!'? Hmm?"
"Is that a 'small boat'? How about a piece of broken wood? You have a problem with your memory." Lynch said disgustedly, pointed at Shanks, and said seriously, "I advise you to show some respect to me.
What is in front of you is the ripple messenger, the eight-armed demon, the guardian of the historical lights, the protector of the Pirate King, and Big Mom's terminator! I have killed several admirals and marshals before..."
"The pirate queen's man." Robin added next to him. Nami held her shoulders and laughed, and Shanks' face turned sour.
"Okay, that's right." Shanks shrugged, looked at each other, laughed, and put their arms around each other. Lynch said, "Now that the fight is over, let's go down and have a drink."
"Let's go!" Shanks laughed, "Let's go to Elbaf!"
"Oh, oh, oh, oh!" The red-haired group began to roar and scream, and Luffy also raised his fists, laughed and shouted, "Let's have a banquet together!!!!"
Zoro, Nami and the others said with smiles, "Let's go."
Brooke followed the flying rocks brought back by Lynch and the others, and everyone crowded around. The afro-headed skeleton said thoughtfully: "Mr. Lynch, Miss Robin, Mr. Chopper, why do you feel that someone is missing?"
?”
"It's Usopp and his father..." Sanji said with shame, "They're not still on that floating island on the Golden Lion, are they? Wait, is that island still 'floating'?"
Robin analyzed: "They have been put on the sea by Lynch. Maybe because the landing was not stable, they accidentally fell into the sea... Usopp is an esper, and he may have been bitten into pieces by the Neptune class.
...Judging from the size of Elbaf's giants, I'm afraid the only people living in this sea area are giant sea beasts..."
"Is it necessary to say it so horribly?!" Sanji, Nami and the others broke out in a cold sweat.
Luffy and Shanks smiled and said, "Oh, don't worry about them! They are very powerful. They will be fine. We can attend the banquet together later! Hahahahaha..."
Lin Qi smiled slightly, raised his hand and swept away, and the flying rocks carrying everyone floated and left the empty island.
"You forgot this." He casually made a move, and a straw hat flew from the direction of the empty island, chased it down through the clouds, and floated in front of Luffy and Shanks.
"Ah! I almost forgot about it!" Luffy and Shanks covered their heads in unison and said in fear.
Nami, Lucky, Lu and others each punched Luffy and Shanks in the back of the head, and said angrily: "Can I forget this?"
Shanks held the bag on the back of his head, smiled slightly, grabbed the straw hat floating in front of him, and pressed it on his head, "It's back to its original owner. Hiss..."
"Hehe." Luffy wiped his nose proudly.
"Although you communicated well," Robin reminded them at this time, "Luffy, Nami, you should not have forgotten, the duel between Luffy and Shanks is not the point, the key is the intelligence of that thing."
"What are you talking about, Robin!" Luffy shouted angrily, "Dueling is very sacred! Why isn't it important?"
"Yes, that information!" Nami suddenly woke up, held down Luffy's head, stared at Shanks and the others, and asked a little nervously, "The last piece of road sign history text, Shanks, as...Yonko level
The pirate group should at least have its whereabouts, right?"
"Little girl, you just wanted to say something like 'you are the last Yonko', right? It must be right?!" Lucky Lu and other members of the red-haired group raised their hands to complain.
Nami waved her hand, don't care about such details!
"Without that thing, we wouldn't be able to reach Rafdru." Nami said seriously, "I wouldn't be able to become a complete world, Luffy, and I wouldn't be able to become the Pirate King!"
Chopper complained: "Nami wants to say that without Raphdru, you can't draw a complete world map?"
Nami waved her hands and said, "It's all the same!"
Luffy said seriously: "It won't work if we can't reach the final island!"
Lynch crossed his arms and asked, "So, Shanks, what's your answer?"
Robin, Nami, Brook...even Luffy, all eyes were focused on Shanks.
"The last 'red stone'..." Shanks sighed with stubble, looking up at the sky on the falling flying stones, and recalled with a smile, "Yes, I got that thing from Whitebeard."
"Whitebeard gave you such an important thing?" Nami was shocked.
Shanks said dissatisfied: "What do you call this? I am a pirate, of course I was robbed!"
Beckman complained silently: "We didn't know at the time that it was where Whitebeard kept the red stones. This guy was drunk and wandering around, and he met Hawkeye who was in a bad mood. The two of them started fighting without even saying a few words.
I accidentally hit the rock while hitting..." He hit Shanks on the head with the butt of his gun.
Nami said speechlessly: "This is not robbery, but stealing, right?"
Shanks was dissatisfied: "Did I say I snatched it from Whitebeard? I snatched it from Mihawk, didn't I?"
Sauron analyzed: "But that guy doesn't seem to care about this kind of stone..."
Shanks smiled and said: "I want to be famous. Whitebeard didn't want the red stone incident to cause a fuss, so he didn't say anything. He probably wanted to add fuel to the flames and make me famous."
Lucky Lu and the others lamented: "Since then, there have always been inexplicable guys who come to us and then get beaten up..."
Robin said calmly: "So, where is the red stone?"
Lin Qi looked at the receding sky and said, "Time waits for no one, Shanks. We already have information about three red stones, and all we need is the last one in your hand."
Shanks pressed his straw hat, smiled handsomely and said, "I lost that red stone."
There was silence on the rapidly falling stone for a few seconds, and then an astonishing electric light appeared, and Nami's roar echoed through the sky, "What did you say?!"
In the light of tingling electricity, Shanks explained: "Little girl! Don't be impulsive! I mean, it's so numb! I mean, I put that thing somewhere else! Wait! Don't be shocked.
Got it!!"
"You are so out of breath that you want to piss people off! How about this, you and Luffy are shocked together, and whoever can't hold on loses?"
