Chapter 174 Ace vs. Law! In the name of the emperor! Giant mercenary!
On the Golden Dragon.
Law looked at the little dragon man in front of him.
It really looks like Admiral Kaido when he uses his abilities.
Most of his body is covered with pink scales, his teeth and nails have become very sharp, and a not-too-long tail is swinging behind his butt.
A pair of horns on his head that look very young at first glance, and his face is like a mask, with most of the area covered with dragon scales, only the area around the mouth is the original appearance.
”You said, you want to challenge me?”
Luo said with interest.
“Hehe,”
Ace held a steel water pipe in his hand, which was his weapon. “Neither Zoro nor Kuina is my opponent. They said that you are the weakest among the cadres. Of course, I have to challenge the weakest one!”
Luo’s mouth twitched.
First of all, the weakest cadre on the ship is Violet, although the woman claimed to be a civilian staff to avoid this fact.
Secondly, you are looking for a beating, right? ”Don’t be too proud, Ace!”
On the side, Zoro was still very unconvinced, “I will catch up with you soon!”
”You should catch up with Kuina first.”
Ace smiled.
There was a gap in strength, and after he ate this fruit, the gap became even greater.
The two of them combined could only be easily defeated by him, and their swords could not even break his dragon scales! “Then come on.”
Luo smiled, “Let me see the power of your mythical beast species.”
”Oh! Do you want to fight?”
Violet, the weakest of the cadres, has come with three good girlfriends, smiling, “Luo, you are really looked down upon. This kid doesn’t seem to take you seriously at all.”
Luo’s forehead was throbbing.
Who is looked down upon?
Ace just treats you as if you don’t exist and challenges me directly, okay? ”Anyway, let’s get started!”
Beside Violet, Sanda Sonya urged.
You guys are very excited to watch the fun.
Luo really wants to chop all these guys together.
”Then I’ll come!”
Ace has already rushed over excitedly.
He can’t wait to test the power he just got.
Law should be a very good opponent.
”Heh.”
Law’s mouth curled up slightly in a playful arc.
Boy, do you think you can do whatever you want just because you have the same ability as Admiral Kaido?
You are still far from it.
The hard steel pipe was already swung towards Law.
But Law just chuckled.
Iron block.
Dang! !
A loud noise.
Instead, Ace, who was hitting people, was shaken away, and his hands holding the iron pipe were shaking.
”So hard!”
He exclaimed, “Is this the iron block?”
Is this the six styles that Jack mentioned? ”You can use a little more force.”
Law crossed his arms and laughed contemptuously.
“Really?”
Ace suddenly smiled slyly. He took a deep breath and his chest became swollen.
”Hot breath!”
The dragon’s breath turned into a raging flame, which expanded into a fireball several meters in size the moment it was spewed out, and smashed directly towards Luo in the air.
This kid is quite smart.
Luo chuckled.
Iron blocks can indeed effectively block physical attacks, but flames are not included.
After all, the degraded version of Armament Haki is not a serious Armament Haki! ”Shave!”
Luo disappeared from the spot in a flash, and the fireball that lost its target blasted towards the side of the ship.
He would not try to block every attack with an iron block.
When he knew it was difficult to block, he would choose to dodge without hesitation.
“Don’t spit fire on the deck.”
Ian, who was sitting on the ship’s helm, was flipping through a newspaper. With a wave of his hand, the surging domineering aura directly extinguished the flying fireball.
The newspaper contained what Morgans had said to him before.
It gave a detailed introduction to the story of the Golden Lion attacking the Kingdom of Goa and then Ian beheading it.
Of course, only Ian’s record was restored. The government did notCover up the fact that he killed the Golden Lion.
This time, they made a big fuss about why the Golden Dragon appeared in the Kingdom of Goa.
Ian was said to have gone to the Kingdom of Goa to plunder, but was accidentally attacked by the Golden Lion, so the pirates fought and killed the Golden Lion.
However, it doesn’t matter.
Ian never cared much about his reputation.
Why do pirates care about these things? ”Ian! Look!”
Hancock sat on his left, holding his latest wanted poster in his hand, “Three billion berries!”
Just as Morgans said, the bounty increased by one billion.
The bounty returned to the fourth place again.
”Four emperors!”
Yamato sat on his right, holding his arm and reading the newspaper with him, and said with a smile, “Everyone is saying this about you now.”
Four emperors.
The concept that was supposed to appear in a few years has now appeared in this sea ahead of time.
In the past, newspapers called Ian the fourth emperor.
But there was never a mention of the first, second, or third emperor.
That was tacitly placing Ian below the three real emperors, and he could be called an emperor candidate.
But now, it is the Four Emperors.
The four real pirate emperors, running side by side, reigning in the New World.
”It’s just to provoke the relationship between me and Teacher Kai.”
Ian said with a smile.
Although he now thinks that he does have that level of strength.
But the World Government chose to flatter him so much, obviously to cause infighting in the Beasts Pirates.
”Isn’t that bad?”
Hancock was a little worried.
”This is a good thing.”
Ian was laughing.
After all, this means that the government will not take direct military measures for the time being.
However, the World Government is indeed quite tolerant of the pirates on the sea.
Even if the Rocks Pirates, who were invincible in those days, had not attacked the Valley of the Gods in a self-destructive way, the government might not have taken action against them.
Perhaps they really didn’t take them seriously?
While he was reading the newspaper, the battle between Law and Ace was still going on.
It should be said that Ace was played badly by Law.
The physical attack of waving a water pipe was suppressed by Law’s iron block, and the fire-breathing Razor could not catch up with Law’s Razor at all.
”What a powerful move!”
Zoro’s eyes lit up.
Although he was a swordsman, he felt that he could use the Six Styles himself.
Especially the high-speed moving Razor! It perfectly made up for his lack of mobility.
“Is that all?”
Law said jokingly.
”Stop looking down on me!”
Ace roared, and his roar turned into thunder, splashing in all directions in an instant.
Even Shave would have difficulty avoiding it.
Enelu, who was practicing on his own, suddenly frowned.
You’re playing like this in front of me, the genuine Thunder Fruit user, right? ”Moon Step.”
Law stepped directly into the air and flew into the sky, avoiding the lightning.
But.
”Hey! I got hit!”
Ace smiled triumphantly.
He also rose into the air like Law.
No, what he stepped on was not air, but yellow clouds that appeared out of thin air! Is this guy really a genius?
Ian couldn’t help but marvel slightly. He had just mastered the ability and was already so proficient.
”You can’t move at high speed in the air, right?”
Ace took a deep breath, and his roar turned into flames again, “Hot Breath!”
The blazing flames almost came close to his face.
Luo’s expression finally became a little more serious.
Indeed, as Ace said, he couldn’t use shaving in the air now.
In terms of speed, he couldn’t avoid this attack at all.
But.
”ROOM.”
Luo held the long sword at his waist with his right hand, and turned his left hand downward, and an invisible air circle formed in his palm.
The next moment, a translucent spherical space bloomed in the air, directly enclosing Ace and the flames he spewed.
Then,
Luo swung the sword.
“Eh?”
Ace was a little confused. The flame was cut off? No, it wasn’t just the flame that was cut off! He himself was also cut in half!! Ace’s body wasThe body was split into two from the chest.
Law was still smiling and swinging his sword, and the invisible sword light cut Ace’s body into pieces in an instant.
”You are still far from it.”
If you don’t master the Armament Haki, you are not qualified to fight with me at all.
Only Armament Haki can resist the cutting power of the Operation Fruit.
Law turned his finger, “Chaos Space.”
Ace’s body that was cut into pieces instantly rotated in the ROOM space.
”Wow!”
The screams instantly spread on the deck.
Ian smiled and shook his head.
Of course, the Blue Dragon Fruit is very strong.
But the Operation Fruit is not a vegetarian. Unless you meet a master of Haki, the fancy ability of the Operation Fruit is destined to make it difficult for Law to be defeated. When the Golden Dragon was heading towards the Upside-Down Mountain, the battle in the Kingdom of Goa had of course spread all over the world through newspapers.
The Golden Lion’s attack on the East Sea was a major event that had shocked the whole world recently.
Everyone was afraid of when the flying lion would appear above their heads and drop an island.
So when the news that the Golden Lion was killed by Ian spread all over the world, the whole world was boiling.
Whitebeard Pirates.
”Is that guy Shiki dead too?”
Whitebeard’s expression was a little inexplicable.
Although he and the Golden Lion were not even friends, they could only be said to be acquaintances.
However, the old guys who had walked together from the last era disappeared one after another, and it was inevitable that there would be a trace of melancholy in his heart.
His sons were worried about something else.
“Does that guy already have the strength to kill the Golden Lion?”
Vista’s tone was full of reluctance and disbelief.
That kid is only fifteen years old! What was he doing when he was fifteen? He suddenly felt a sense of panic in his heart. What would that kid grow up to be in a few years? ”Four emperors?”
Some people were furious, “Kaido and Charlotte Linlin are fine, but how can that kid be qualified to be on par with his father!”
Some people were worried, “The so-called Four Emperors, the Beast Pirates only have two…”
The Whitebeard Pirates on the deck were worried and resentful.
But there were also some who were independent of this.
The girl who was practicing swords silently, the black fat man with a gloomy face.
And, Whitebeard who was drinking.
He just drank silently.
The kid who was already so dazzling back then has now become the sun in the sky, making it impossible for anyone to ignore him.
Cake Island.
”Did Shiki get killed by that kid!”
Charlotte Linling said solemnly, “The Four Emperors – that kid has come to this point so quickly?”
”We must speed up the reconciliation with the giants!”
Wano Country.
”Ugh, ugh!”
The gold medal master laughed out loud, “It seems that this time the kid can have a good fight when he comes back!”
”Kid, come back soon, let me see if you are qualified to stand shoulder to shoulder with me!”
Dressrosa.
Doflamingo rubbed his forehead, or, don’t think about it for the time being? Emperor, ugh.
Paradise, Sabaody Archipelago.
“Shiki…”
Rayleigh sat on the coast fishing and shook his head gently, “It’s not our era anymore.”
Somewhere in Paradise, on a huge ship heading towards the Magic Triangle.
”Little devil! Wait for me! Emperor? I don’t recognize you!!”
An island in the New World.
Crocodile smoked a cigar and closed the newspaper in his hand.
”Hmph.”
He hummed.
Pirate Emperor?
Just wait, Ian, the humiliation of Alabasta will be returned to you sooner or later!
You have to tell me the secret of Pluto! The door was pushed open.
”Boss, there is a new commission!”
The whole world was shocked by the final result of the battle of Goa Kingdom.
No one expected that the one who saved the East China Sea was actually a pirate, and one of the most terrible pirates.
What does the World Government do? They pay so much tax every year.
Such thoughts can’t help but surge.
But moreBut it is the fear of the Beasts Pirates.
”Two of the Four Emperors are in one pirate group, so who can stop them?”
People are terrified.
”Is the new Rocks Pirates going to appear?”
People who knew about the existence of the Rocks Pirates in the past are even more terrified.
So many kings of member countries have made up their minds to seriously discuss the existence of the Beasts Pirates at this year’s World Conference.
And Ian, who caused this trend, is on his way back to the New World.
He is more concerned about the news that Morgans just sent him.
”Lord Ian!”
Question, when will Morgans, the bastard, call him Lord Ian? Just the moment he heard his name, Ian felt unhappy.
“That kid named Luffy can’t be monitored for the time being. The hero Garp is going to take him back to the Navy Headquarters!”
”Tsk.”
Ian was shocked.
Bad news comes one after another.
Morgans explained to him that the entire Goa Kingdom was completely destroyed, and most of the areas in the territory were no longer suitable for human habitation. Who knows when it will sink completely due to the collapse of the underlying rock bed.
So, the survivors on the island were organized by the Navy to migrate to other islands.
And as the grandson of a Navy hero, Luffy was naturally taken away by Garp.
”You can’t blame me for this, right?”
Morgans was cautious.
Ian rubbed his eyebrows.
Luffy was taken to the Navy Headquarters and will most likely become a Navy member in the future. How could I have such a dream?
The question is, will Nika still find Luffy in the Navy?
The surveillance of Luffy could only be put on hold temporarily.
Ian didn’t give up completely. After all, the Navy Headquarters had a gathering area for military families, and Luffy should be active there. After all, he was too young to join the Navy directly.
Then the paparazzi under Morgans still had a loophole to exploit.
When the communication with Morgans ended, the Upside-Down Mountain appeared in front of him.
The towering red mountain made the eyes of Es, Zoro, Kuina and the other two who had never seen it so surprised that they almost popped out.
Kuina, who had a relatively cold personality, was better. She just clenched the Wado Ichimonji in her hand and stared at it.
And Zoro and Ace wanted to climb directly to the Red Earth Continent to get a glimpse of the clues.
Not to mention them, even the equally rustic Enelu couldn’t help but turn his head frequently to look.
“Hold on tight.”
After the reminder, it turned into a huge golden dragon, grabbed the big ship and soared into the sky.
”Hahahaha!!”
Ace laughed, “Take off!”
”Oh oh!”
Zoro’s eyes lit up.
However, their excitement did not last long.
When flying over the Red Earth Continent, the endless red below quickly made them feel aesthetic fatigue, and they continued to do what they had to do.
Until they completely crossed the Upside-Down Mountain and returned to the New World.
”This is the Grand Line!”
The three little brats who had never seen the world were excited again.
The sea current weather islands in the new world, everything was so amazing to them.
This amazingness reached its peak when they arrived at the Giant Kingdom.
“Ga ba ba ba! Ian! Welcome back! We all saw it in the newspaper!”
“Ha ha ha ha ha! It’s amazing, my good friend! Although I don’t know how powerful the guy called Golden Lion is, but the Pirate Emperor! This is an amazing title as soon as you hear it!”
The two good friends warmly welcomed Ian’s return.
In addition to them, other giants in the village also gathered around enthusiastically.
Ace and the other two were stunned.
”Wow, so big!!”
Zoro’s mouth was almost unable to close.
Jack’s body was already huge enough, but it was not enough in front of these giants.
They were now like being trapped in a primeval forest, and all around them were unattainable giants.
”This is the Giant Kingdom!”
Ace looked around excitedly.
He couldn’t wait to start a wonderful adventure in the Giant Kingdom right now.
“Could it be that Ian has a good relationship with the giants?”
Guina asked softly.
She noticed that the giants here seemed to be very
“Very good.”
Black Maria answered her with a chuckle, “Before going to the East Sea, we stayed in the Giant Kingdom for a few months.”
“During this period, we traveled around the entire Giant Kingdom and communicated with all the warrior villages. Everyone liked Ian very much.”
Guina nodded gently.
That’s really amazing.
“Ga pa pa pa!”
Broki laughed, “Ian, the things you asked us to do for you have been done! You came back specifically for this!”
Ian raised the corner of his mouth, “Of course, I still want to drink and chat with friends again.”
“Hehehehe! This kind of thing can be done later! But before that!”
He turned around and shouted, “Come here!”
So, a group of giants came out of the village.
Each of them carried swords and knives. Although they could not be said to be armed to the teeth, they did look tough.
And the point is, the number seems to be too much, the black mass is like a forest.
Ian almost thought that Alan had launched a rumbling in front of him.
”Three hundred people in total! All elite giant warriors!”
Brockie winked, as if to say, brother, am I good enough? That’s really good.
Ian’s mouth corners raised.
A giant army of three hundred people, it sounds exaggerated, except for Joy Boy, which human being can do it in history? You know, a giant warrior went to the navy, that’s the position of vice admiral.
Three hundred giant vice admirals, I just ask you if you are afraid.
Whether it is Charlotte Linlin or the World Government, wouldn’t they be jealous to death after hearing this? “But, Ian,”
Good friend Dongli reminded, “Although they all recognize you, the cost of hiring them is not low.”
”Who do you think I am, Dongli?”
Ian laughed wildly.
Who do you think is the richest man in the world at this stage, my friend?
Is it still a problem for Uncle Ian to solve a problem that can be solved with money?
Enough money! (End of this chapter)
