"Gion!"
I didn't expect that I would arouse Gion's hostility just by looking at him. Gunko's temper suddenly rose and he said tit for tat, "Don't think I'm afraid of you, if it weren't for Akira Marshal, you have been wrapped up like a mummy by me. By the way, there is also the nymphomaniac Empress Hancock who left Holy Land with you last night to go to Sabaody Archipelago!"
"Gunko?"
Before Gion could react, Akira's voice suddenly came out, "Have you turned a deaf ear to my warning? How dare you speak to Gion in such a tone?!"
Hearing this, Gunko's beautiful eyes widened, and then he looked at Akira aggrievedly, "I--"
Akira did not punish Gunko, but simply said, "Bring the box over!"
Gunko did not dare to neglect and quickly lifted the box and placed it in front of Akira.
Akira didn't hesitate at all and immediately put his hand on the box.
The next second, the majestic Conqueror's Haki burst out quietly, instantly detonating the air in the room. Along with a buzzing explosion, low-frequency air vibrations rippled out, so scared that Gunko, who had just put the box down, almost sat down.
Not only Gunko, but also the face of Imu next to him suddenly changed color under the scarf, and his dark red eyes were instantly shrouded in horror.
Immediately afterwards, Imu lost his usual aloof and aloof demeanor and said in a hurry, "Akira, stop--"
Buzz buzz--
Amidst the constant low-frequency vibrations, the Conqueror's Haki that suddenly appeared surprisingly did not spread out. Instead, it was forcibly suppressed by Akira and covered the surface of the box. After a while, energy ripples visible to the naked eye rippled on the surface of the box, wrapping the entire box.
"Done!"
Injecting Conqueror's Haki into the red cloth on the surface of the box, Akira threw it in front of Imu, "From now on, this box will be left to you for safekeeping."
"Eh?"
Finding that Imu was unresponsive, Akira looked up at Imu blankly, and saw his pair of dark red eyes flashing slightly, with a hint of fear in his eyes, as if he was frightened.
After being stunned for a short time, Akira was relieved.
Obviously, Imu is very afraid of the Conqueror's Haki he just released.
This is not difficult to understand for Akira, because in the original work, Imu had a reaction that was shocked by Conqueror's Haki stored in the giant robot by Joy Boy. The most important thing is that the Conqueror's Haki released by the giant robot is far away from the Imu in Holy Land.
This is enough to show that Imu is very afraid of the ultimate Conqueror's Haki, either because of his own ability, or because the ultimate Conqueror's Haki has left an indelible psychological shadow on Imu.
Akira saw through it but didn't say anything, and said with a smile, "Why do you have such a big reaction? Do you think I want to punish Gunko? Don't make trouble, I am not that petty!"
Hearing this, Imu quickly recovered his mind and glanced at Akira calmly.
"What's in this box?"
Knowing that Akira said this to cover up his abnormal reaction just now, Imu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then moved his eyes to look at the box covered by Conqueror's Haki, "It must be a very valuable thing that you can use Conqueror's Haki to protect it. So, why don't you keep it yourself?"
Akira waved his hand, "The things in the box are not valuable, they are just some collected Devil Fruit."
"The most valuable thing is the box itself!"
"Of course, if you are curious, you can open it yourself to find out, provided you can open it!"
After saying that, Akira picked up the soup and drank it all in one gulp, and immediately moved all the untouched snacks in front of Gion, "Eat slowly. I'm going to see how many gold, silver and jewelry are hidden in Imu's little vault."
Just as Gion was about to speak, Akira had already picked up the golden key, grabbed Gunko's sleeve that was about to fall to the ground, and pulled Gunko out, who was still in a daze.
Seeing that Gunko was almost dragged out by Akira, Gion almost couldn't help laughing.
But immediately, Gion felt something was wrong.
Because as Akira and Gunko left, she and Imu were the only ones left in the room.
Although she has known about the existence of Imu for a long time, she has never been so close to Imu.
Coupled with the aura of a king who has been in a high position for a long time, Imu exuded from his every move and gesture, which made her feel a little nervous for no reason.
When Akira was around just now, she didn't feel much.
But when she faced Imu alone, she suddenly realized that this person was a king who was so high up that even Five Elders worshiped him.
That kind of innate kingly temperament makes her afraid to look at him even if she is Awakening or Conqueror's Haki.
Imu did not care about the existence of Gion, but after Akira left, he looked at the box containing Devil Fruit as curiously as Gunko.
Suddenly, just as Gion picked up the chopsticks and prepared to eat breakfast to divert her attention, Imu's voice suddenly came from behind her, "This box contains Devil Fruit, but it is not Devil Fruit entity, but Devil Fruit energy."
"Also, it contains not just some, but a lot of Devil Fruit's energy."
"It's interesting, this box can actually collect so many Devil Fruit energy!"
"Wait--"
Suddenly, Imu's eyes widened in shock, then he lifted the box in front of him without paying attention to the Conqueror's Haki covering the surface of the box, and said in a voiceless voice, "The number of Devil Fruit energy inside is still increasing!"
Thinking that there is another Gion, Imu beside him, he quickly calmed down.
Even so, Imu is still a little unbelievable, "This box is indeed more valuable than the Devil Fruit inside. I kind of understand what Akira Marshal is going to do next? It's not just the pirates he wants to eliminate, but also Devil Fruit user!"
After a slight pause, Imu suddenly turned around, and an invisible pressure came over Gion, "Can you tell me how this box collects Devil Fruit energy? Gion!"
"!!!!"
Unexpectedly, Imu could determine what was inside without opening the red cloth of the wrapping box. Gion's pupils shrank slightly.
But she returned to normal immediately, then turned around to face Imu's extremely aggressive gaze, saying neither humble nor arrogantly, "I'm sorry Lord Im, I can't tell you without Akira Marshal's permission!"
"Quite loyal."
Imu narrowed his eyes and said solemnly, "Don't forget, I am the master of Void Throne!"
Gion subconsciously held the handle of the knife at his waist and said tit for tat, "Void Throne has no master! The reason why Void Throne is called Void Throne is because the twenty kings who founded World Government wanted to prevent someone from becoming a dictator!"
"Of course, Lord Im can sit on Void Throne at any time, because no one will compete with you, and no one will know!"
Without waiting for Imu to react, Gion suddenly turned his head and looked out the window at the garden where birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, and then said, "Although this is my first time here, whether it is called Flower Chamber, or the various flowers and plants in the garden, and the decoration of some rooms, it is not difficult to tell that the person living here should be a woman!"
Hearing this, a cold light suddenly flashed across Imu's pupils, and he glanced sharply at Gion.
At the same time, the Den Den Mushi placed on the bedside suddenly rang, "Gion, have you finished your breakfast? After you have finished, call dozens of soldiers over, Imu, brother You are so righteous, you actually handed me a gold bricks full of gold bricks, I can't spend them all, I can't spend them all! Hurry, call someone to move them all to the headquarters. I want to face the whole World Military Draft and expand the navy to 1.5 million!"
???
Hearing the voice coming from Den Den Mushi, both Imu and Gion were filled with questions.
Especially Gion, when she heard Akira say the words "Imu, that brother is loyal", her whole body went numb!
Which man would name the place where he lives Flower Chamber?
Although there is no complete evidence, relying on a woman's intuition, Gion can be sure that Imu is a sister and not a brother.
