Pfft!
Golden blood sprayed from his mouth—the divine blood he had gained after merging with the Galactic Will.
"Lin Ye!" Luffy rushed over immediately.
"Damn monster!" White flames blazed around Ace.
"Let's attack together!" Zoro drew all three swords.
The three of them attacked Abaddon at the same time.
But the Void Emperor was faster.
A black shadow flashed past, and Abaddon had already appeared before Lin Ye.
"It's over."
It raised its right hand, condensing Void Energy into a sharp blade.
This strike was enough to kill any living being.
At that critical moment, Ace rushed in front of Lin Ye.
"Don't even think about hurting my brother!"
Ace spread his arms and used his body to block Abaddon's fatal strike.
Pssh!
The Void blade pierced Ace's chest.
Blood splattered as the white flames rapidly weakened.
"Ace!" Luffy cried out in anguish.
"Ace!" Zoro's eyes widened.
At the sight of this, unprecedented rage flared in Lin Ye's eyes.
"Ace..."
Ace's chest had been pierced through, yet he remained standing.
He weakly turned back and smiled at Lin Ye.
"I'm fine... Protect... Lin Ye..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ace lost consciousness and fell from the sky.
His fate was unknown.
"Ace!" Luffy let out a heart-rending cry.
The rage in Lin Ye's eyes erupted like a volcano.
"You bastard!"
The Galactic Sword shone once more, brighter and fiercer than before.
His anger and grief awakened the power buried deep within him.
"I'll kill you!"
Lin Ye swung his sword at Abaddon.
This strike contained all his rage and determination.
Abaddon disdainfully extended one finger.
"Anger worthy of an ant."
Its finger collided with the blade, erupting in a blinding flash.
But the result filled everyone with despair.
Lin Ye was sent flying again, and the Galactic Sword's glow
