Chapter 246: What if I join you?
Since you insist on opposing us…
Kizaru tilted his head.
Kuzan's shadow was reflected in the sunglasses.
"Then let's take our final bow here with Professor Zephyr."
The light surged.
The lieutenant generals around them moved.
Onigumo's Eight Swords.
Doberman's slash.
The flying squirrel's sword wind.
Stromberg's double-edged sword.
Dozens of attacks blocked all of Kuzan's escape routes.
Kuzan gripped his ice skates tightly.
In my perception, there are only death alarms.
Overwhelming.
There is no escape route.
Zefa coughed violently behind him, tried to stand up, but fell heavily back down.
"Fool…"
The old man cursed hoarsely, his voice trembling.
"Hurry up..."
Kuzan didn't turn around.
His body was taut like a fully drawn bow.
The first sword strike is about to land.
The laser from Kizaru's fingertip is about to be fired.
A voice rang out.
"What if I join you?"
...
The sound wasn't loud.
Greet like an old friend.
But the sound penetrated into everyone's ears.
It drowned out all the noise on the battlefield.
The Ghost Spider's blade solidified.
Doberman's footsteps were nailed down.
The light at Kizaru's fingertips flickered eerily.
The entire room fell silent.
Only the wind was howling.
All eyes were turned in the same direction.
sky.
"That is..."
Some people have dilated pupils.
The gray sky brightened.
The clouds parted.
A golden ray of light descended from the sky.
The pillar of light, like a golden pillar reaching to the sky, slowly descended.
There were no cataclysmic events inside.
It was as light as a feather.
In the golden light, a figure became clearer and clearer.
A young man.
His posture was as straight as a spear.
He was wearing an extremely ornate cloak.
The cloak was woven from pure light.
Golden light flowed across it as if it were alive.
The man had a faint smile on his face.
His gaze was calm.
He ignored the energy that was enough to destroy the island.
They ignored the murderous intent of the lieutenant generals.
They ignored the admiral's threat.
He stepped on the golden light.
Step by step.
They came down from the sky.
At last.
It landed silently beside Kuzan.
"despair."
The sound of the soles of the shoes hitting the ice was very soft.
But it struck everyone like a thunderbolt.
Chen Ye.
They finally made their move.
...
The moment he landed, a wave of energy swept across the entire arena.
It was Chen Ye's Conqueror's Haki.
Moreover, Chenye's Conqueror's Haki is a kind of pressure from a higher level of life.
The naval officers' faces turned deathly pale instantly.
My body is shaking uncontrollably.
That's the instinct when facing a powerful enemy.
It is a fear deep within the soul.
"How...is this possible..."
Clang.
A major general's knife fell to the ground.
His legs went weak and he almost knelt down.
The pressure is too great.
It was so strong that he suffocated.
He was so strong that he didn't even have the courage to hold a knife.
Even seasoned lieutenant generals like Onigumo and Doberman were drenched in sweat and struggling to breathe.
They stared intently at the golden figure.
The murderous intent in his eyes turned into fear.
This man.
Just standing there.
It became the center of the world.
It seems that ownership of this land has changed hands.
A one-sided massacre.
Because he was alone.
It's reversed.
...
Kizaru Borsalino.
This admiral was known for his laziness.
This is a man who likes to joke with everyone.
now.
His perpetually lewd face.
the first time.
The smile disappeared.
His eyes, which were always squinting, were fully open.
The pupils behind the brown sunglasses shrank to a single point.
He stared intently at Chen Ye.
All that could be seen was bottomless darkness.
Above the darkness, there was a dazzling golden light.
Kizaru lowered his finger.
The photons at my fingertips dissipated silently.
He dared not be so arrogant anymore.
I dare not be frivolous in the slightest again.
His Observation Haki was frantically alarming.
A sign of death.
If that shot had been fired...
It might not be Kuzan who died.
It was him.
Kizaru pushed up his sunglasses, his movements a little stiff.
His Adam's apple bobbed.
The active light elements around his body slowed down.
Even the light was afraid of this man.
...
"call…"
Kuzan exhaled a long breath of white air.
He turned his head and glanced at Chen Ye beside him.
A familiar figure.
A man who always wears a mysterious smile.
Kuzan's taut shoulders slumped.
The ice blade in his hand turned into a puddle of water vapor.
No need for a fight to the death.
As long as this man is here.
No one on this sea can kill him.
Kuzan's lips curled into an almost imperceptible smile.
"You've come..."
Kuzan said in a low voice.
"This is really timely."
Chen Ye didn't turn around, but gave him a look.
There was a smile in his eyes.
The main character always appears last.
...
This scene.
It didn't just happen on the spot.
Instead, it was transmitted via video Den Den Mushi (snail phone).
This scene is being broadcast live to the world.
The signal is intermittent.
The image is somewhat blurry.
But the man wearing a golden cloak.
The man standing next to the former admiral.
The man who silenced the elite of the navy.
He was still recognized by countless people.
New Naval Headquarters.
Fleet Admiral Akainu watched the big screen and crushed the senbei in his hand.
His face was ashen, and the veins on his forehead were throbbing.
"Chen Ye..."
"That bastard disappeared for two years, how did he suddenly appear here!"
"And which side are they on: Zeff or Kuzan!"
Akainu gritted his teeth.
This is the last man he wants to see.
Because of this man's strength!
It is enough to trample on the authority of world governments.
The Holy Land, Mary Geoise.
Between power.
The five elders looked at the screen, their faces so dark they could drip water.
"This guy"
"He's been gone for two years?"
"We all thought he was dead, but he suddenly appeared here today."
"What does he want to do?"
The world's power center is in turmoil.
Chenye made his public debut this time.
They made their stance clear.
He once again stood on the opposite side of the navy.
...
Back to the battlefield.
Chen Ye ignored the horrified looks around him.
He didn't look at the trembling lieutenant generals.
Ants are not worthy of his attention.
His gaze passed over the crowd, and over the flashing blades.
It landed on Kizaru.
He looked at his old friend with great interest.
Looking at Kizaru's unusually serious expression.
Chen Ye smiled.
His smile was very gentle.
It was brilliant.
Like the older brother next door.
But in Kizaru's eyes, that smile was more terrifying than a demon.
Chen Ye took a step forward.
Just one step.
The naval vice admirals surrounding them were pushed aside by an invisible wave of air.
They all retreated in unison.
The encirclement has cracked open on its own.
Chen Ye ignored them.
He just looked at Kizaru.
He spoke with a smile.
The voice was clear and resonant, carrying far and wide.
"Kizaru".
"have not seen you for a long time."
Chen Ye paused.
His eyes gleamed with an inexplicable light.
"This is the last lesson of the day..."
Are you sure you want to continue?
This sentence is a question.
But it was like a death warrant.
Like an ultimatum.
Continue, and you will die.
If you don't want to die, get out.
Kizaru's mouth twitched.
He knew the man's strength better than anyone!
He looked at Chen Ye.
He then glanced at Kuzan and Zephyr behind Chen Ye.
The last shred of hope in my heart had been completely shattered.
I won't be able to finish today's task.
Even worse, it might not be handled well.
I might die here.
The air condensed.
Everyone was waiting for Kizaru's answer.
We await the decision of this top naval commander.
war?
Or should we withdraw?
This is a matter of life and death.
