Internal Destruction

At that moment, Ye Mu was utterly shaken as he gazed at the pitch-black lion phantom resembling a demon god that had appeared behind Shiki.

This power truly befitted a legendary great pirate as renowned as Roger and Whitebeard.

Compared with John, who was also a Great Swordsman, the pressure Shiki was giving off now far surpassed his.

This demonic power was truly astonishing.

Seeing the astonished look in Ye Mu's eyes, the corners of Shiki's mouth lifted slightly. His body slowly floated into the air as he gripped the twin swords in his hands and asked with boundless arrogance,

"How is it, brat? Do you want to experience my swordsmanship?"

"!"

Ye Mu was stunned for a moment, but then his entire body grew excited.

Under the pressure of such powerful, demonic force, he felt no fear whatsoever. Instead, every cell in his body became excited.

"In that case, I'll gladly accept. Come on, Golden Lion. Let me experience the power of a legend!"

"Gyahaha... You're starting to suit my taste, brat..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a crimson gleam appeared in Shiki's eyes. At the same time, the enormous pitch-black demon-lion phantom behind him wrapped around his raised twin swords before he swung them down through the air.

"Then, Lion Style: Secret Art: Lion God!!!"

In an instant, as Shiki swung his twin swords, a massive male lion roared as it surged up from the heavens and pounced toward Ye Mu.

"Ghost Bind: Nine-Dragon Flame Prison Garment: Nine Dragons Possession!"

Without the slightest hesitation, thick, dark Haki wrapped around Ye Mu's entire body, protecting him. At the same time, Ye Mu raised Lion Maru and Heaven before him.

In the very next instant, the surrounding space seemed to twist, and Shiki's Lion God swallowed Ye Mu whole.
