Chapter 382 Has a Purpose
That's right, it liquefied!
It's just like lava, can you imagine?
They simply couldn't believe it, because it was just too unbelievable!
At that moment, both the Moon Hunter Katrin Demi and the heavy drinker Basque Jot were speechless, unable to find a suitable word to describe their feelings.
When the small island crashed down, it was with tremendous force, seemingly intent on destroying everything. However, unexpectedly, it not only failed to cause any damage to its target, but was also pierced through like paper!
In the center of the island, a huge hole suddenly appeared, as if it had been torn open by an invisible giant hand.
And because of this sudden hole, they were lucky enough to escape unscathed. The scene was so astonishing that they were all momentarily stunned, staring blankly at the huge hole, their hearts filled with shock and confusion.
"What kind of ability is this?" The Golden Lion's voice suddenly rang in everyone's ears. He had returned to everyone's front and was staring intently at Don Achino, his eyes filled with a look of inquiry.
At that moment, Don Achino's eyes were fixed on Shiki, as if drawn by a magnet, trying to see through his imposing exterior to his inner thoughts. Despite Don Achino's immense confidence in his own strength and abilities, at this moment, he faced Shiki, the Golden Lion, his enemy!
Golden Lion, this name is legendary in the world of pirates.
He was a legendary pirate, on par with Pirate King Roger and Whitebeard, and in some respects, even surpassed them. At one time, Golden Lion Shiki even held sway over these two legendary figures.
That was 27 years ago, when the Golden Lion was ambitious and plotted to rule the world. To achieve this goal, he attempted to join forces with Gol D. Roger.
However, Roger refused him without hesitation, which enraged Shiki. Thus, a thrilling battle broke out between the two pirate crews, a battle later known as the "Battle of Edd War".
At that time, the Golden Lion Pirates were at their peak. Not only was Golden Lion himself at his strongest, but the entire pirate crew was also exceptionally powerful.
Even the Pirate King Roger's crew seemed somewhat powerless when facing such a powerful opponent, and were chased to the point of having nowhere to run or escape by the Golden Lion Pirates.
They had even reached a point of desperation and utter desperation. If it weren't for his extremely bad luck in encountering a sudden storm, the Flying Pirates' fleet would probably have been mostly sunk to the bottom of the sea long ago.
To make matters worse, an unexpected accident occurred during the storm—the ship's rudder landed squarely on the head of the golden lion!
Because forcibly removing the rudder could have killed him, it remains firmly embedded in his head to this day.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the ship's rudder on the golden lion's head again, and his lips twitched involuntarily.
If it were anyone else, they would probably have died countless times by now.
However, this guy not only survived, but also possessed astonishing strength, and his behavior was even more unpredictable.
Looking back on what happened 24 years ago, he still finds it hard to believe. At the time, he simply couldn't believe that Gol D. Roger, whom he considered a formidable rival, would be arrested by the Navy.
Without hesitation, he rushed alone into Marineford, the headquarters of the Marines, to personally verify the authenticity of the news.
In this fierce battle, he went on a killing spree, slaughtering a large number of naval soldiers. Finally, he learned from Sengoku and Garp at headquarters that Gol D. Roger would be publicly executed in his birthplace, Loguetown.
Shiki, who had always considered the East Blue the weakest point, was furious, believing it to be a final insult to Gol D. Roger before his death. To prevent Shiki from causing trouble when Gol D. Roger was about to be executed, Vice Admiral Monkey D. Garp and Admiral Sengoku from the Marine Headquarters took to the field. The three fought until nearly half of Marineford was destroyed before a victor emerged. After his defeat, Shiki was imprisoned in Impel Down, the world's largest prison, Level 6, the Infinite Hell.
You think that's the end? Of course not! Impel Down, for anyone, means the end of their life. Once imprisoned here, it's like being plunged into an abyss with no chance of ever seeing the light of day again. It's a place where you can only enter and never leave, one of the most secure prisons in the world, known as the "Iron Wall."
However, in this seemingly inescapable place, an exception occurred. 22 years ago, a man, in order to escape Impel Down, resolutely cut off his own feet, which were bound by seastone shackles! From then on, his feet were replaced by prosthetics called "Sakura Ju" and "Kori".
This man was Golden Lion, a legendary pirate. His action not only demonstrated his extreme desire for freedom but also revealed his cruelty and ruthlessness towards himself. After all, those were his own legs; how many people could be so heartless as to sever them all?
Golden Lion's actions made him the first prisoner in Impel Down's history to successfully escape. His courage and determination were astonishing, and he inspired awe in all who heard him.
Such a person is simply a mythical being! His power is astonishing, seemingly surpassing the limits of humanity. Faced with such a terrifying opponent, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
He began to reflect on just how vast the gap was between himself and this legendary pirate. Was it a disparity in strength? Or a lack of experience and wisdom? Or perhaps some other factor? This question lingered in his mind, leaving him feeling somewhat lost.
However, he understood that only in a real battle could he find the answer. Only through a direct confrontation with this legendary pirate could he truly understand his own strengths and weaknesses.
Not only was Don Achino staring intently at the Golden Lion, but Aini was too. He wasn't afraid of the Golden Lion, but rather worried that it might escape. After all, someone of the Golden Lion's caliber, if determined to escape, would be no easy feat even for a powerful figure like Aini.
Furthermore, Enni has a strong interest in something in Shiki's hand. In the original story, Shiki discovered many animals on an island that had become ferocious due to consuming plants containing "IQ" components.
