Xi Yan's Shock, the Black Shadow Hidden Within Saint Gilm's Consciousness!

An incredibly heavy force slammed into Saint Gilm, sending him flying into the air and crashing into a distant building!

"Whoosh~"

"Boom!!"

After smashing through several buildings, it slammed heavily onto the ground.

"Boom!!"

"Um?"

The slave who noticed this scene instinctively exclaimed, "What's going on this time?!"

Has someone else been blasted into the air again?

"It's a monster!" shouted a slave nearby. "A golden monster!"

Upon hearing this, the others immediately showed expressions of fear and instinctively backed away.

"Cough cough... it really hurts."

Saint Gilm, clutching his head, got up from the ground, then turned and glared fiercely at the slaves, saying, "Bastards, who are you calling a monster?"

"I am Kirin!"

They actually mistook him for a monster... What a bunch of ignorant bumpkins!

"Kirin?"

The slaves exchanged glances upon hearing this, then looked at Saint Gilm and asked, "So, you've come to save us?"

"Save you?" Saint Gilm paused for a moment, then sneered, "I'm Celestial Dragons, how could I possibly save you?"

He's already being kind by not killing these guys outright; you expect him to actually save people?

Stop joking, okay?!

"..."

The slaves fell silent for a moment upon hearing this, then hatred flared in their eyes.

"He's Celestial Dragons, kill him!"

"Kill him!"

"Profound!!"

These slaves, who harbored a deep-seated hatred for the Celestial Dragons, immediately abandoned their escape attempt and instead took up their weapons to charge at Saint Gilm.

Saint Gilm:???

Are these guys crazy?

After a moment of silence, Saint Gilm revealed a ferocious expression and said, "Since you want to die, then I'll grant your wish!"

If he can't kill the Blood-Eyed Ninja, can't he kill these guys?

After letting out a cold laugh, Saint Gilm swiftly charged forward.

"Die!"

"Um?"

Having distanced himself from Kizaru and Gunko, Xi Yan glanced slightly in the direction of Saint Gilm and said, "That guy could be...?"

"It's just killing a few slaves on the side, what's the problem?" Gunko said indifferently.

As high and mighty Celestial Dragons, isn't it normal for them to kill some slaves when they're unhappy?

Therefore, Gunko didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Borsalino, standing nearby, frowned upon hearing this, clearly displeased with Gunko's words.

But he didn't say anything; after all... he was Marine Admiral!!

Being in that position, no matter how unhappy he was with the Celestial Dragons, he couldn't say much, or he would be punished.

Thinking of this, Borsalino sighed silently.

Xi Yan sneered, "Heh, that's what you say again."

This time, Gunko didn't reply. Instead, he glanced at Borsalino and said, "Don't stand there, kill him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gunko used his Devil Fruit ability to create a gigantic spinning arrow, then wrapped Haki around the top of the arrow.

After doing this, Gunko launched an attack on Xi Yan.

Borsalino charged toward Xi Yan at that moment, raising his long, Haki leg and kicking out!

"Well done!" Xi Yan shouted.

As he spoke, Xi Yan manipulated Susanoo to Kido Time Piercing Spear his hand at Borsalino, intending to first disable the guy's Elementalization.

Borsalino, realizing Xi Yan's intentions, kicked the tip of Kido Time Piercing Spear hard.

"Clang!"

"Boom!!"

A terrifying explosion erupted between the two men, shattering the massive boulder below!

Gunko seized the opportunity and hurled the spinning arrow at Susanoo's body.

Faced with such an attack, Xi Yan immediately manipulated Susanoo raise its other hand and strike at the spinning arrow.

"Clang!"

"Boom!!"

Ultimately, under the combined force of the two, Xi Yan was sent flying into the air, hurtling to the side.

"Boom!!"

"Boom!!"

"Boom!!"

After smashing through numerous buildings, it slammed heavily onto the ground.

"Boom!!"

"Cough cough."

After coughing, Xi Yan stood up and said, "As expected, dealing with multiple powerful individuals at the same time is not an easy task."

Fortunately, that woman wasn't at the Admiral level, otherwise the fight would have been much more difficult for him.

After shaking his head, Xi Yan turned his gaze to the side, thinking to himself, 'This position...'

Are you planning to kick him out of Mary Geoise?

To prevent myself from causing damage?

"The idea is not bad, but kicking me out won't be an easy task," Xi Yan sneered.

Just then, the Saint Gilm ran out from the distant street, clearly chasing after the slaves.

Seeing this, Xi Yan sneered, "As expected of Celestial Dragons."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xi Yan sensed that something was wrong.

"Um?"

Staring at the rapidly healing arm of the Saint Gilm, a look of shock appeared in Xi Yan's eyes.

Then, Xi Yan murmured, "Could this guy also have that kind of Super Regeneration ability?"

Did this guy Awakening his Devil Fruit ability, or does he possess the same kind of Super Regeneration that grants him immortality, like that woman?

After pondering for a moment, Xi Yan muttered, "Never mind, let's try the Seastone Handcuffs first."

This thing can counter Devil Fruit User, so there's a chance it can break their abilities!

Thinking of this, Xi Yan put his hand into his Ninja Tool Bag and took out the scroll containing the Seastone Handcuffs.

"I just casually picked up a few pairs of handcuffs, and I didn't expect they'd actually come in handy," Xi Yan muttered.

As he spoke, Xi Yan took out a pair of handcuffs from the scroll.

After finishing this task, Xi Yan put the scroll away and returned it to his Ninja Tool Bag.

"Phew~"

After letting out a long sigh, Xi Yan looked at the distant Saint Gilm and said, "Prepare for a beating, Little Kirin!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xi Yan vanished from his spot.

"You dare to bomb me with cannons?!" Saint Gilm sneered as he looked at the slave he had stabbed to death with his fork. "You truly deserve to die!"

Then, Saint Gilm turned his gaze to the battlefield and said, "Alright, it's time to go back..."

Before he could finish speaking, his Observation Haki detected a familiar presence beside him, causing his pupils to shrink to their maximum size.

' Blood-Eyed Ninja!!'

Damn it, this guy actually came looking for me first?

Without a second thought, Saint Gilm immediately wrapped Armament Haki around his trident, then turned and thrust it at Xi Yan behind him without hesitation.

"Die!"

"Puff!"

With a single blow, he pierced right through Xi Yan!

Seeing how easily he had broken through Xi Yan, Saint Gilm was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting it to go so smoothly.

'Wait... this guy might be planning to use that move!'

Recalling the scene where the Blood-Eyed Ninja suddenly reappeared after being killed by Kizaru, Saint Gilm became extremely vigilant.

Just then, Xi Yan, who had been pierced by him, rushed up with Saint Gilm's fork on his head and grabbed Saint Gilm's arm.

Saint Gilm:???

No, this script is wrong! Doesn't this person feel pain?

"Got you~" Xi Yan grinned.

Upon hearing this, Saint Gilm was startled. Could this guy perhaps possess some special ability?

Wait... this guy has the aura of Sea Stone!

"You..."

"You only just realized it now?"

"Too late!" Xi Yan shouted.

As he spoke, Xi Yan took his right hand out from behind his back and then slammed the Seastone Handcuffs on his hand toward the Saint Gilm!

'Asshole!'

Although he possesses an immortal body bestowed upon him by Im-sama, his Self-healing ability will be weakened if he is touched by the Seastone Handcuffs!

At the same time... he will also become weak due to the Sea Stone, ultimately becoming a lamb to the slaughter!

Thinking of this, Saint Gilm decided to sever his own arm to distance himself from Xi Yan.

Just then, the ground behind Saint Gilm suddenly trembled, and then a clay spear emerged, heading straight for Saint Gilm's back!

"Earth Release: Earth Flow Spear!" Xi Yan's clone shouted.

The next moment...

"Puff!"

"Click~"

The sharp homemade gun easily pierced the abdomen of Saint Gilm, stringing him together like a skewer of candied hawthorns.

Because of this force, Saint Gilm lost the opportunity to sever his own arm and create distance, and was ultimately handcuffed to his arm with Seastone Handcuffs.

Saint Gilm:...

Feeling the excruciating pain in his abdomen and the coolness on his arm, Saint Gilm was on the verge of tears.

What kind of nonsense is this?

The next moment, Saint Gilm's body changed, gradually transforming from its final Kirin form back into its original human form.

Ignoring the changes in Saint Gilm, Xi Yan distanced himself from his opponent, pulled out the golden fork from his abdomen, and grinned, "Finally got you."

Upon hearing this Saint Gilm fell silent, then staggered and pulled himself out of the mortar.

After doing this, Saint Gilm's body went limp and he sat down on the ground.

"He still has the strength to move...?"

Glancing out of the corner of his eye at the rapidly approaching yellow light in the distance, Xi Yan said, "Its vitality is truly tenacious."

As he spoke, Xi Yan glanced at Saint Gilm's still slowly healing wounds and thought to himself, 'Even being held by Sea Stone, his wounds are still slowly healing...'

It seems this guy's Super Regeneration isn't due to Zoan Devil Fruit ability...

Xi Yan was puzzled. How exactly did the other party manage to do that?

Could it be... that the World Government has mastered some kind of long-distance medical treatment method?

If that's the case, then the World Government is indeed a bit outrageous.

Using this tactic, no one can defeat them in a protracted war!

"It's useless, Blood-Eyed Ninja." Saint Gilm looked up at Xi Yan and said, "You can't kill me."

Even if he loses his Devil Fruit powers, it doesn't matter. As long as the power bestowed upon him by Im-sama hasn't disappeared, he won't die!

Upon hearing this, Xi Yan paused for a moment, then created numerous Shadow Clone to attack the nearby Kizaru and intercept Gunko behind him, preventing them from interfering with him.

After doing this, Xi Yan activated Susanoo.

"Buzz~"

A gigantic Susanoo appeared on Xi Yan's body, along with a large, pale golden spear in its hand.

Then, Xi Yan raised his spear and stabbed it hard into Saint Gilm's body.

"Puff!"

The massive, pale gold spear pierced through Saint Gilm's body with ease, pinning him to the ground.

"So he really won't die so easily."

Looking at the Saint Gilm who was still staring at him with mocking eyes, Xi Yan frowned and said, "It seems that killing guys like you will require some effort."

"It's useless, Blood-Eyed Ninja, you can't kill me!" Saint Gilm laughed, "Just wait, you'll soon..."

"How noisy!"

Without giving Saint Gilm a chance to continue speaking, Xi Yan decisively activated ' Yomitsu Toki ' in conjunction with his left eye's Dojutsu!

"Buzz~"

The next moment, a strange force acted on Saint Gilm's wound, forcibly freezing the wound in time!

Saint Gilm:!!!

Sensing the changes in his wounds, Saint Gilm's eyes widened in shock as he exclaimed, "Is this the technique that can suppress healing abilities?"

Having personally experienced this move, Saint Gilm immediately felt the terror of its power.

The opponent actually... actually suppressed Im-sama's power!

How did this guy even do that?

Looking at the expression on Saint Gilm's face, Xi Yan mocked, "So you can make that kind of expression too."

"You despicable lowlife..."

"Alright, I'm too lazy to waste my breath on you," Xi Yan said. "Just tell me everything you know!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xi Yan used Mangekyō Sharingan- level Illusion on Saint Gilm, intending to forcibly extract some information from him.

Just then, Xi Yan sensed another spiritual force from Saint Gilm, and at the same time 'saw' a strange black shadow!

Xi Yan:!!!

Upon sensing this terrifying spiritual power, a look of shock immediately appeared in Xi Yan's eyes.

Then, Xi Yan immediately distanced himself from Saint Gilm.

"What happened?"

Xi Yan, staring intently at Saint Gilm, frowned and asked, "Why does this guy have another kind of spiritual power in his mind?"

It's as if... there's another person's consciousness existing deep within this guy's consciousness.

'Does it mean that Devil Fruit exist on their own?' Xi Yan guessed.

He had previously concluded from the Sealing Scroll that Devil Fruit possess consciousness, so the situation just now was possible.

However, considering the Devil Fruit User he had previously controlled, Xi Yan overturned this conclusion.

After all... other Devil Fruit User don't possess a second mental force!

Just then, Xi Yan recalled the strange shadow he had seen in Saint Gilm's consciousness.

That dark figure with strange eyes...

"Could this guy just be someone's puppet?" Xi Yan murmured, staring intently at Saint Gilm. "Just like Nagato's techniques..."

Looking at the silent, staring Saint Gilm, Xi Yan fell into deep thought.

Looking at the puzzled Xi Yan, a mocking expression gradually appeared on Saint Gilm's face.

Want to use hypnosis to turn him into a servant?

Don't joke around!!

As long as this lord is present, no one can hypnotize the God's Knights!

After all... Im-sama is invincible!

Thinking of this, Saint Gilm grinned.

Ha ha ha ha!!!
