One Piece: My Spirit

Chapter 278 Chapter 278

At this moment, Charles could feel that the aura of the golden lion was changing, as if what Charles said just now made the sleeping and old lion wake up.

"Uh, it looks a bit troublesome, but it's interesting in this way!"

If the Golden Lion's strength at this time is still the same as in the original plot, defeated by Luffy, who was not very aggressive at the time, then Charles can't help but be a little disappointed.

Although in the end the Golden Lion was defeated by Luffy's third block and the lightning attack of a special celestial phenomenon, it can be said that the time is on the protagonist's side, but Charles at most thinks that it is the Golden Lion's underestimation of the enemy.

At this time, the age of the Golden Lion is estimated to be about the same as that of Rayleigh, Garp and others, but Charles believes that the strength of this "legendary pirate" will not really be that unbearable.

"Looks like the sleeping lion has been awakened by provocation"

Fujitora could also feel the amazing aura emanating from the golden lion, and at the same time vaguely looked forward to how Charles would respond next.

The figure of the golden lion suddenly flew towards Charles in a flash, the cherry blossoms and dead wood on both legs overlapped and intersected each other, the golden lion joined the sword with its body, piercing straight through the air like a golden flash!

Lion Flying Thorn!

Charles didn't intend to dodge at all, his silver eyes became deeper and deeper, and he once again swung an incomparable blue saber light!

boom!

The two retreated dozens of steps each, and then the Golden Lion and Charles rushed towards each other again, fighting for dozens of rounds in the blink of an eye.

The two swords struck together, and the sound of the sword pierced through the air. The momentum of the Golden Lion and Shire also continued to rise during the fight. The transition between offense and defense was only in an instant, and both sides knew that if they hesitated a little, they would fall into a disadvantage.

"Chance!"

The golden lion caught Shire's hesitation, and immediately activated the fruit ability again, and countless soil around him rolled towards Shire again to bury him!

Suddenly the golden lion felt a great terror between life and death, which is the experience accumulated in countless life and death struggles.

At the same time, like snowflakes falling around, a knife tip that shone with faint blue appeared silently less than three inches away from the golden lion's throat!

Snow falls!

It's just that Golden Lion's intuition of life-and-death struggle for many years made his body subconsciously lean back at the last moment, just in time to avoid Shire's 'Xueluo'!

And Fujitora in the distance is also frowning. In his "knowledge color" perception just now, he completely lost the breath of Shire for a short time, as if he disappeared suddenly.

At this time, the back of the golden lion who came back to his senses was completely wet with cold sweat. At the moment just now, he really almost thought he was dead!

"What's the matter with this guy? How could you not perceive the 'knowledge color' at that moment just now?!" The golden lion gritted his teeth and stared at Charles opposite.

Then the two fought each other again, and the golden lion no longer used the fruit ability easily, because he had already suffered twice from it just now!

Although he didn't use the fruit ability, Golden Lion himself is also a master of swordsmanship. What Shire and Golden Lion are competing at this time is their respective hard strength and background in swordsmanship!

But today's Golden Lion fights with two legs instead of holding a sword in both hands. Facing Charles, a pure master of swordsmanship, the Golden Lion quickly showed weakness and flaws in holding a sword with two legs.

At this time, the situation has gradually turned to Shire's side. Although the Golden Lion is powerful, it can't withstand the effects of aging body and incomplete legs. In the duel of masters, this defect will often be infinitely magnified.

Perhaps Golden Lion himself understood this point, so after leaving the city, Golden Lion changed his fighting style, focusing more on using fruit abilities to suppress and defeat the enemy.

If the golden lion is a complete body, perhaps the result today is hard to say.

Charles understands this truth, and naturally the golden lion is also clear, but he probably didn't expect that this kid who came out of nowhere is so ridiculously strong.

At the same time, the fierce battle with Shire just now caused the Golden Lion's physical strength to continue to decline. The Golden Lion tore off the tattered clothes on his upper body, and floated to the sky again while panting.

"Why do you Donghai people like to hinder me so much?!" The golden lion roared with a ferocious face: "Only by killing all of you Donghai people can I relieve my hatred for so many years!"

Speaking of the golden lion raising his hands to the sky, the floating islands above gradually began to fall down. It seems that in order to completely kill Shire, the golden lion has completely ignored their research results and subordinates on the island for so many years, and intends to completely destroy the current island!

Charles looked at the golden lion who seemed to be in a state of madness at this time, and couldn't help showing a disappointed expression on his face:

"Shiji, is this your so-called ambition to dominate the sea?! You who have been living under the shadow of Roger, no matter in the past, present or future, you will never be able to dominate the sea!"

At this time, there was an inexplicable and mysterious aura exuding from Charles, and his aura was constantly rising.

"The years are ruthless, the aging of the body is not terrible, what is terrible is the aging of the mind! The 'revenge plan' you keep talking about is just your obsession with Roger, the ambition of the great pirate named 'Golden Lion', which died 20 years ago! Let me help you understand all this today!"

Through the fight with the Golden Lion just now, Charles can truly feel the incomparably persistent thoughts of Roger in the other party, so he can empathize with the Golden Lion even more.

Time is merciless, the golden lion is indeed an old man, but Charles has also met Karp and Rayleigh, who are also old people. Charles does not feel the feeling of old age in Karp, Rayleigh and others. In the final analysis, it is because their spirits and hearts are still young.

But the Golden Lion is different, not only physically aging, but also mentally and spiritually aging, which makes Charles feel a little embarrassed.

The aging of the body and the aging of the mind are already like walking dead in the eyes of Charles.

"The former king of the old age, let me use this trick to send you the last journey!"

As soon as the words fell, Charles' silver eyes became deeper and deeper, neither sad nor joyful, all things have me, and all things have no self.

At this moment, Xia Er's whole body was incomparably concentrated.

At such a moment, whether it was the golden lion in the sky or Fujitora and Hancock beside him, they suddenly felt an inexplicable palpitation deep in their hearts.

The snow-white blade of 'Xue Xun' trembled slightly as if alive, and then Charles gently swung his sword at the golden lion in the sky. It was a plain and unremarkable sword, but it made everyone present feel a sense of death as if suffocated!

Sword God is without me!
