at the same time.
Mary Geoise, among the Flower Room.
Imu stared intently at the live stream screen.
The battle in the Dressrosa Kingdom made him realize that the world was changing too fast, and many things were beyond his expectations.
"Why would the power of the Human-Human Fruit, Model: Nika appear in Devil Fruit User...?"
"The Devil Fruit Awakening is somewhat similar to the Sing-Sing Fruit, while also possessing the instrumental physical characteristics of the Tone-Tone Fruit..."
" Noah the Liberator, magnetic field, gravity, slowing down, space, high heat, shadow, scales—which Devil's power is that?"
Imu fell into deep thought.
These things had never happened before. He had secretly ruled the world for eight hundred years, and he hadn't just been playing with Flower Room the time. He had actually browsed through the World Government's library and all kinds of scientific research materials.
Imu was very familiar with Vegapunk's various research projects.
But everything before my eyes was so unfamiliar.
This sense of unfamiliarity made Imu, who had always been aloof and self-important, feel fear, confusion, unease, and irritability.
"I don't like this out-of-control world, the Dressrosa Kingdom!" Imu picked up a brush and drew a blood-red cross on the map.
The location marked by the "X" is none other than the Dressrosa Kingdom.
Imu then arrived at the Hall of Power, sat on the Empty Throne, and slowly closed his eyes to concentrate.
On the Red Line northwest of Mary Geoise, a mountain slowly floated up and then moved towards the Dressrosa Kingdom.
At that very moment.
On the battlefield of the Dressrosa Kingdom.
A voice resounded in the hearts of the five saints: Saint Saturn, Saint Warcury, Saint Shepherd Ju Peter, Saint Mars, Saint Garling.
[Hold off as many enemies as possible; the National Treasure will arrive over the battlefield in half an hour!]
Saint Saturn's gaze sharpened, but he did not show any surprise. At the same time, he did not notify Kuzan, Sakazuki, Blood Wolf, Zilong, CP0 experts, or officers of the three armed forces.
The other three Five Elders, as well as Saint Garling, showed no abnormalities whatsoever.
For them, if they could use the sacrifices of Sakazuki and others to annihilate the Liberator Organization present, they were willing to sacrifice these pawns.
After all, the Liberator Organization currently have more than twenty experts in the Dressrosa Kingdom. Even if there are some hidden experts left, including Shiki and Nico Robin, the total number probably won't exceed twenty.
Saint Saturn's summoning ability has a very special application: by dispelling the ability, one can be forcibly Teleportation back to the anchor point of Mary Geoise.
Therefore, the Five Elders and the Holy Knights, who were summoned by Saint Saturn, instantly returned to Mary Geoise.
On the other hand, the Liberator Organization could suppress the Teleportation ability by finding a way to limit or kill the Hole-Hole Devil Fruit User.
Clearly, the Five Elders believed that Monet's sudden disappearance and reappearance, as well as the emergence of several Shichibukai from behind Noah, were due to Ray's Hole-Hole Fruit ability.
Even so, the Five Elders were not confident in defeating Ray.
At this moment, the Five Elders and the Holy Knights were under a fierce and relentless attack.
The seven newly joined members of the Holy Knights did not reverse the World Government's disadvantage.
They underestimated the strength of Doflamingo and his crew.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Doflamingo, Moria, Crocodile, and others have shown only average combat strength in the past. In reality, that's because they haven't undergone systematic training. Otherwise, their potential could have reached the level of Admiral.
At this moment on the battlefield, Moria and his men were at the level of Admiral.
Figarland Saint Garling's opponent is Tesoro.
Although this old man is quite strong, and even participated in the God Valley Incident against the Rocks Pirates, his strength certainly does not surpass that of Admiral.
Tesoro, Devil Fruit Awakening, combined with terrifying Three Types of Haki and immense life force, almost overwhelmed Figarland Saint Garling Strike.
" Crescent Moon!" Figarland Saint Garling unleashed a series of slashes.
" Sea of Gold!" Tesoro, controlling the assimilated Sea of Gold, cried out, " Beast Calamity!"
A ferocious beast formed from liquid gold surged out of the Sea of Gold, opening its blood-red maw around Figarland Saint Garling and viciously lunging to bite him.
Pfft! Pfft!
One after another, the golden beasts were slashed and shredded.
"Huff, huff..." Figarland Saint Garling was slightly out of breath, his SWORD still swinging and slashing.
However, the shattered golden beasts instantly returned to their original state.
"Hahaha, if this level of strength is maintained, I can fight for a month! You damned Celestial Dragons!" Tesoro waved his hand. " Golden Mist Kingdom!"
Tiny gold particles enveloped the area for several kilometers around.
This gold isn't temporary assimilation gold from the Devil Fruit Awakening; it's natural gold, which Tesoro carried with him using a memory card.
boom!
Figarland Saint Garling suddenly unleashed a burst of Conqueror's Haki, thinking to himself: I can't get caught in these golden particles, or it will be fatal.
"Old ghost, let's fight to the death! You'd better be prepared to kill me, otherwise if I win, I'll go to Mary Geoise and grind your entire family to dust!" Tesoro's words were full of malice and murderous intent.
Figarland Saint Garling could sense the hatred in Tesoro's words and knew that this was the other man's true intention.
"Arrogant lowly wretch, I'll grant your wish! Full Moon!"
A slash imbued with Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki swept out instantly.
hiss hiss hiss...
The beasts and Tesoro on the Sea of Gold were instantly cleaved in two.
However, Tesoro laughed wildly, "Hahaha... What a weak slash!"
Tesoro's severed body quickly reconnected and returned to its original state, as did the golden beasts.
Figarland Saint Garling frowned: Did they avoid it beforehand? Or did they hide their true form?
His Observation Haki narrowed to a radius of two kilometers, while simultaneously sensing the Sea of Gold beneath the ground. However, the surrounding environment was far too unfavorable for a simple, powerful swordsman like him.
"Come on! Come and kill me!" Tesoro brandished his golden trident, completely abandoning his defenses and charging forward with a suicidal attack.
This wasn't the real body; the thought immediately flashed through Figarland Saint Garling's mind, but he had no choice but to raise his sword to parry.
At the same time, he had to spare some attention to Tesoro's true form, which was hidden in the shadows, to avoid being ambushed.
With a swoosh, he severed another of Tesoro's arms, but from that arm, a large amount of gold surged out and reattached the arm.
Seeing that not a single drop of blood had flowed from the wound, Figarland Saint Garling became even more certain of his guess. In addition, the fact that this clone had not used Armament Haki or Conqueror's Haki made him even more vigilant about the Sea of Gold beneath it.
"Old Ghost, what are you looking at?"
In an instant, Tesoro's arm transformed into a cannon barrel.
" The Golden Sacred Fire!"
The laser suddenly shot out.
Figarland Saint Garling's sense of crisis grew stronger. After dodging the laser attack, he unleashed another slash, simultaneously unleashing Conqueror's Haki attack that dispersed the golden haze surging around him.
In a second, Tesoro's clone rushed over again.
*Thud! Figarland Saint Garling slashed out, piercing Tesoro's chest diagonally, splitting his body in two once again.
However, the next second...
A terrifying surge of Conqueror's Haki suddenly erupted.
"What...!" Figarland Saint Garling's eyes widened.
Tesoro's severed left hand instantly enveloped in Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki, gripping the opponent's neck.
"Get out of my way!" Figarland Saint Garling immediately unleashed a burst of Conqueror's Haki, while his entire body was covered in Armament Haki.
It was just too late.
Tesoro's severed body instantly clung to Saint Garling's body, and a large amount of liquid gold overflowed from his body.
"No..."
The great swordsman was caught in close combat, and his opponent was also Devil Fruit User with top-tier Three Types of Haki and Awakening form. Saint Garling lost his chance to fight back.
