A Dragon's Reverse Scale

As the saying goes, even dragons have their own scales to hide from harm.

For everyone, there is an absolute bottom line that cannot be crossed.

Even a complete villain like Donquixote Doflamingo.

There must be corners in one's heart that cannot be touched.

For Lin Yan, his Achilles' heel is the important person beside him.

But what did this bastard say...?

He must die today!

Even God couldn't save him!

Lin Yan's eyes flashed with an intense killing intent, and her soaring aura exploded forth, causing everyone present to hold their breath.

Boa Hancock looked at Lin Yan with a mixture of pride and tenderness.

This is the person I've been longing for!

No matter when or where, if he suffers even the slightest injustice, Lin Yan will be the first to stand in front of him!

Just like more than a decade ago, I stormed Mary Geoise alone...

Seeing Lin Yan's murderous intent, Boa Hancock felt no fear whatsoever; instead, she felt her heart melt.

Ain and Momousagi also looked at Lin Yan with flickering eyes.

Her face was slightly flushed, and I didn't know what she was thinking.

However, when faced with the same model, Donquixote Doflamingo and Gild Tesoro were filled with fear.

We know you're the boss! Stop it!

Brother, spare their lives!

Calm down! Calm down!

For the first time, Donquixote Doflamingo broke down, shouting at Lin Yan in a panicked tone.

"Captain Lin! Let's stop here! Otherwise..."

"Don't worry, only one person will die today."

However, Lin Yan merely glanced at the two of them indifferently, her eyes showing no wavering, and grabbed the terrified Celestial Dragons.

Then he slammed his hand on the table!

Boom------!

How could Celestial Dragons's frail, useless body withstand such immense force?

It burst open immediately, like a balloon.

Red and white fluids were spilled all over the ground; the person was clearly dead beyond any doubt.

Bloody!

Miserable!

This is Lin Yan's way of retaliating against those who dare to cross her!

It doesn't matter if you're Celestial Dragons or some random Tom, Dick, or Harry.

They all have to die!

"..."

The room fell silent once more.

The three girls straightened up and walked to Lin Yan's side without hesitation, without even glancing at the Celestial Dragons at their feet.

A person can be born on their knees, but they must never die on their knees!

No matter what happens today, they will stand with Lin Yan.

"This... this is how you killed him...?"

Donquixote Doflamingo, his face pale, muttered to himself as he looked at the Celestial Dragons' shattered corpses scattered on the ground not far away, so badly that they couldn't be pieced back together. He felt a chill run from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head.

The Celestial Dragons dead!

This place is about to become a battlefield!

Honestly, Donquixote Doflamingo's only thought right now is to run!

Run as far as possible!

But in the end, where can I run to? I was there when the Celestial Dragons, and a little investigation would expose me. So now, my only way out is to survive.

He was standing next to Lin Yan!

Hopefully, this man can bring about another miracle!

It can only be said that Donquixote Doflamingo truly deserves to be called the king of the Underworld; his intellect and courage are far beyond those of ordinary people, and he made a decision immediately.

"Captain Lin... you're amazing!"

A very forced smile appeared on his face.

Perhaps for the first time in his life, Donquixote Doflamingo gave someone a thumbs-up with genuine admiration.

That's a hero!

Putting aside her future prospects, there's no doubt that Lin Yan accomplished what she wanted to do but never dared to do before, and that alone is enough to earn Donquixote Doflamingo's respect.

"Captain Lin, I apologize for any offense I may have caused earlier."

Gild Tesoro nodded solemnly as well.

Like Donquixote Doflamingo, he was also the emperor of the underworld.

Donquixote Doflamingo could think of.

He could naturally have thought of that too.

However, unlike Donquixote Doflamingo, who simply wanted to seize the only way out and was somewhat respectful, Gild Tesoro had a completely different idea.

He was truly impressed by the man before him!

The kind of admiration that comes from the heart!

Gild Tesoro, despite his glamorous and glamorous appearance as the Gild Tesoro, is a pitiful person who has suffered greatly at the hands of the Celestial Dragons.

That was the past I least wanted to face.

When I had nothing, I met the love of my life.

That girl brought him salvation.

However, it was ultimately taken away ruthlessly by the Celestial Dragons.

She herself was reduced to a slave and spent several miserable years in Mary Geoise.

He then learned of the girl's death.

From that day on, the man named Gilder Gild Tesoro lost everything.

They only managed to escape when Mary Geoise was attacked.

Then, step by step, he became the Gild Tesoro he is today, a figure above all others, living the life he once hated most.

Gild Tesoro was fully aware of all of this.

I just haven't been willing to face it.

There was hatred, fear, and above all, shame for myself.

Just like that girl from before.

On a stage called Despair, she repeatedly opened her throat, calling out the name of her beloved with heart-wrenching despair...

That kind of life is no different from being a walking corpse!

But today!

He, Gild Tesoro, saw the light!

A man who disregarded the Celestial Dragons and was like an ideal he had once dreamed of was standing right in front of him!

Even at any cost, Gild Tesoro is determined to pursue!

Even if, in just a few days, the Gran Tesoro becomes his burial ground!

"Captain Lin... I have a favor to ask, I'd like to... join your pirate crew!"

Gild Tesoro said excitedly to Lin Yan.

His voice even trembled slightly, a rare occurrence for him.

"You?"

Lin Yan looked at Gild Tesoro with some surprise.

Then, under the man's fervent gaze, she gently shook her head.

You are not worthy yet.

Lin Yan said this.

"..."

Gild Tesoro was speechless; he understood what Lin Yan meant.

He had been in the dark for too long.

The passion he once had has long been corrupted; the man now known as Gild Tesoro is nothing more than a walking corpse.

What do I need to do?

However, Gild Tesoro showed no sign of giving up and instead asked Lin Yan earnestly.

"..."

Lin Yan stroked her chin and pondered for a moment before slowly speaking to Gild Tesoro.

"The Celestial Dragons died here, and you know perfectly well what will happen next. Here's what we'll do... If you can prove to me that you still have a will within you, I'll grant your request."

"Good!"

Gild Tesoro nodded without hesitation.

He knew that his death was no loss, that he was destined for the deepest hell.

It's a very simple principle.

The wicked seek redemption.

The price... is very high.
