One Piece: Mandala Swordsman

Chapter 438 Our battle is not only about who is superior, but also about life and death.

A battle that gets your blood pumping.

The Golden Lion hasn't looked forward to a battle like this in a long time.

Once he received confirmation, the Golden Lion was already waiting for someone to come to his door.

As expected, the guest arrived.

Accompanying her was a powerful sword.

The floating islands were also shaken by the powerful force.

Amidst the endless clamor, they too began to sway precariously.

However, with the appearance of the Golden Lion, everything returned to normal.

Even fragments of the already shattered island reappeared in the air.

"Do you have to make such a big show of it as soon as you arrive?" The Golden Lion looked at the newcomer with a fierce fighting spirit.

In the eyes of the Golden Lion, the uninvited guest before him was dressed in a black robe and wore an iron mask.

So, does the guy who inherited D also inherit the same taste?

"Do you know where the clown is? I just need to find him. If you can, please step aside. I don't want to waste too much energy."

female?

The Golden Lion was briefly surprised by the other person's voice.

Is this perfect successor actually a woman?

And the voice was younger than he had expected.

However, the Golden Lion obviously didn't pay attention to this matter for long.

No matter who it is, all he needs to know is that the other person has something he desires.

"Before you go after that red-nosed clown, you'd better have a go at me first, or you can forget about getting past me."

As they spoke, the golden lion floated into the sky.

As she moved, the floating objects in the sky began to spin continuously.

“Golden Lion, I’ve heard of your name, but there’s no benefit in fighting me. My purpose in setting up this place isn’t for you either. You just need to step aside. You have no reason to help him, do you?” Roman tried to keep his voice calm.

As she expected, the Golden Lion clearly had no intention of buying it.

"Hey, what do you take me for? Do I need to report my reasons to you for doing things? Don't be ridiculous." Golden Lion's face was gloomy.

"It seems he must have told you something. Oh, I see. So, I'm your target?"

"Looks like you're not so stupid after all." The Golden Lion had already started laughing wildly.

Influenced by emotions, even the floating stones became active.

"Just like what the Joker would do. Are you sure you're not being used by him?"

Use a ghost.

Aren't you the one taking advantage of me?

Bucky watched all of this from the shadows, while the two little figures in his hands also observed the battle.

"Huh? Is that so? Wasn't all of this your plan, and Lord Roman was just the executor?"

"Hey, are you guys really that stupid or just pretending? You believe everything people say..."

However, just as Bucky was about to explode, Barbara and Bal covered his mouth in time.

"It would be terrible if we were found out."

Bucky also regained his senses at this time.

Now is definitely not the time to make trouble.

Although he hates Roman now, Bucky has to admit that he wants Roman to win.

Otherwise, he could not withstand the wrath of the Golden Lion.

……

You mean exploit?

"His only goal is for you to kill me. Whether you can successfully inherit the throne is none of his concern, and all of this depends on you being able to defeat me. Are you sure you want this?"

"You really are annoying." As if he had touched a nerve with Shiki, Shiki's face darkened again.

He knew without her saying that the tin man wanted to use him.

But so what?

He, the Golden Lion, is never afraid of these things.

But the guy in front of her felt he couldn't beat her.

What a joke.

The fact that the Golden Lion hasn't appeared for a long time doesn't mean he's dead.

"If you keep spouting such nonsense, I'll cut off your head right now."

"What a volatile temper! It seems we have no chance of talking."

Roman looked at the golden lion, who was now completely enraged, and knew what was going on.

It seems that the Golden Lion is determined to obtain the so-called Will of D.

He had considered failure, and knew he had been instigated.

But he didn't care about any of that.

He was already prepared to take a big gamble.

The aura emanating from him seemed to be telling Roman that he had awakened.

Is it a lion awakening?

One of the pinnacle combat forces of the old era.

Even though it has declined, it must be acknowledged that it was a miracle of its time.

Even the setting sun still retains its warmth.

Moreover, the Golden Lion is not yet in its twilight years.

But that's alright.

Everything she did was simply to ensure that the golden lion wouldn't escape.

The higher his fighting spirit and the more determined he was to win, the more certain he was to end things here, all for the sake of the so-called D.

To avoid his lies being exposed, to get what he wanted, and to avoid future trouble, Roman needed to settle things with the Golden Lion here.

This is the best option for both sides.

Here, not only are superior and inferior determined, but life and death are also decided.

Under the bright and dazzling sunlight, the battle between the two was about to begin.
