Food Still Warm Captures Shiki

A massive, golden slash came hurtling towards them, its sharp aura causing a stinging sensation on Sirius's skin, let alone on the others in the hall.

Urouge instantly felt as if he would be completely torn apart by this slash. If he were facing this attack himself, his ability would not even have a chance to activate, and he would be instantly split in two.

That's terrifying!

This is the legend of the sea, the power of the Golden Lion!

Sirius raised his hand, Two-Color Haki swirled around him simultaneously, unleashing a torrent of black Inazuma.

He put his hand in front of him to shield himself.

Boom!

The slash collided with the Haki barrier, and a gale arose, blowing everything in the hall except for the area behind Sirius away.

The Golden Lion's pupils contracted.

He knew, of course, what the black Inazuma wrapped around Sirius's hand meant; it was a move he himself had used before.

However, this is not surprising. This kid is Pirate Emperor who stands shoulder to shoulder with Whitebeard. It would be strange if he didn't know how to use such a move.

Then, at the same time, the golden slash abruptly changed its trajectory, shooting straight up into the sky, cutting a huge hole in the ornate ceiling before disappearing into the depths of the heavens.

"Go fight outside, Golden Lion Senior!"

Sirius stood up. "Don't ruin this wonderful banquet."

"Come back soon!"

Yamato tilted his head back. "Otherwise, the food will get cold."

"Rest assured,"

Sirius laughed, leaping into the air. "Very soon."

He flew out of the cracked ceiling.

"Geppo? Kid!"

The Golden Lion followed closely behind with a cold smile, also flying out from there.

However, he wouldn't need techniques like Geppo anymore, since he can already fly.

"It's so frustrating,"

Watching the two disappear into the huge hole, Maria shook her head. "I thought it was just an ordinary banquet."

"Because that guy is just so annoying."

Yamato wrinkled her nose slightly. "How could that kind of guy be worthy of being called the Golden Lion who could rival Whitebeard, the Pirate King?"

"But he really is the Golden Lion," Jack scoffed.

"Eating with a guy like that is really disgusting," Yamato grumbled. "Let Sirius teach him a lesson."

Jack didn't say anything more.

In fact, he also felt that this Golden Lion was completely different from the Golden Lion he had imagined.

Before meeting him, Jack imagined the Golden Lion to be a powerful and domineering figure with an imposing presence.

But this Golden Lion seems to have never escaped the shadow of his defeat to Roger, to the point that he has gone mad.

Destroying the East Blue is not a problem; after all, pirates always act recklessly.

But the problem is, was he doing this to get revenge on the dead Roger, just to vent his anger?

That would be truly awful.

Sirius flew to a fairly high place in one go.

"You brat!"

The Golden Lion was even faster than Sirius, and he quickly caught up, his robes and hair fluttering in the wind. "Ready to die?!"

Sirius smiled and said, "First, please allow me to apologize, Senior Golden Lion. No matter what, it is very impolite to insult the host at a banquet."

"Apologize? Heh heh heh! There aren't many polite pirates left on the high seas!"

The Golden Lion was amused, and laughed heartily. "No problem, use your life as an apology!"

Sirius didn't care; his smile remained unchanged.

Senior Golden Lion had no grudge against him and even treated him and his friends to a meal, yet he and Yamato still insulted him and even planned to beat him up.

Sirius felt really bad if he didn't apologize first.

"That's enough of the nonsense!"

Golden Lion's eyes suddenly darkened. "Naive brat! I'll show you what a real pirate looks like!"

"Lion's Might - Thousand-Cut Valley!"

Golden Lion was a renowned swordsman of the previous era, whose two Famous Swords, Withered Cherry Blossom, had severed the heads of countless enemies.

Even after losing both legs and using swords as prosthetics, his swordsmanship remained as sharp as ever.

In an instant, a barrage of slashes swept towards Sirius like a storm.

Each strike is powerful enough to easily tear apart the sea and cleave mountains!

But faced with such an attack, Sirius simply calmly drew the nameless greatsword from his back.

He swung his sword.

Almost silently, then a massive slash shattered it.

The powerful slash, capable of cleaving mountains and splitting seas, was utterly powerless against Sirius's greatsword and was instantly severed.

Sirius merely swung his sword a few times, and all his strikes that could reach him were torn apart.

"You're looking down on me, Senior Golden Lion."

Sirius laughed and said, "You don't even bother using Haki in front of me? Is this what a true pirate looks like?"

Then Sirius saw the Golden Lion's face suddenly darken.

He sighed softly.

So, is it really true that Haki is no longer usable?

Then there's no need for this battle to continue.

"Haki isn't everything, kid!!"

The Golden Lion sneered.

He gestured with his right hand, "Let me give you a proper bath!"

"Lion's Might - Earth Strike!"

Below, the seawater surrounding the giant island was stirred, transforming into a long dragon that rushed towards Sirius.

What an amazing ability, the Float-Float Fruit!

Sirius sincerely exclaimed, "Golden Lion was right, Haki isn't everything."

Everyone says the Tremor-Tremor Fruit has the power to destroy the world, but Sirius thinks that title should belong to the Float-Float Fruit.

Imagine suspending an island tens of thousands of meters in the air and then crashing it down—who could withstand that?

Whether you Whitebeard or Blackbeard, you should smash it flat, right?

Unfortunately, this ability is really not very useful in battles between top-tier experts.

Faced with the roaring water dragon, Sirius simply raised his hand and swung his sword.

"Sovereignty!"

The jet-black giant's spear pierced the sky, piercing the water dragon and shattering it into countless droplets.

After the water flowed, came the mud, and then several mud lions appeared out of nowhere.

But of course, it was meaningless; Sirius simply swung his sword, and the wave of Sword Wave blasted those things to smithereens.

The principle Float-Float Fruit is to allow objects to defy gravity and be manipulated.

This does not mean that when the Golden Lion senior manipulated these objects, he was able to unleash any amazing power.

Essentially, it's just about overwhelming people with superior quality.

"Is that all? Senior Golden Lion?" Sirius asked with a smile.

"..."

The Golden Lion gritted its teeth.

Then came a barrage of slashes that swept in from all directions.

They've run out of ideas.

"Then let's end this battle, Senior Golden Lion."

Sirius laughed, casually parrying the slashes, while black fur grew on his body, indicating that he had entered werewolf form.

Then, in the next instant, his figure vanished from the spot, and at the same time, the air above exploded.

With Geppo and Shave, even in the air, Sirius's speed instantly reached its limit.

"You want to race me, kid?!"

The senior colleague sneered and immediately stepped back to create some distance.

He knew perfectly well what would happen if he, who couldn't even use his Haki at this moment, were to engage in close combat with Haki master of the Mythical Zoan.

The Golden Lion was so fast that even Sirius couldn't catch up.

But it's okay.

Sirius opened his mouth.

Then inhale.

The air collapsed directly, forming a column of air that was much faster than the two objects' flight speeds and was swallowed up by Sirius.

The Golden Lion was also caught up in this airflow, and its speed suddenly decreased.

According to relativity, if the other person's speed decreases, then one's own speed increases.

Sirius inhaled as he moved forward.

In the blink of an eye, he had already approached the senior.

"Don't look down on me, kid!!"

The Golden Lion roared, and the sword mounted on its right foot swept across.

Sirius merely swung his sword casually.

Golden Lion's Famous Sword broke.

Then, under the resentful gaze of his senior Sirius raised his left fist.

The food on the plate is still warm..

Sirius said with a smile.

He clenched his fist.
