He had naturally seen what had happened recently.
After staring at Uchiha Xin for a few moments, Shiki quickly recognized the face.
"A brat with a billion Beli."
" The Bloody One, Uchiha Xin!"
"Hahahaha!"
The laughter echoed across the nearby islands.
The guards on the island all looked up.
Pirates from several islands also began to gather.
"It's Shiki!"
Someone broke in?
"Who is this person that would get the captain to personally intervene?"
After the pirates with binoculars clearly saw Uchiha Xin, they immediately took out the bounty poster and checked it.
"Truly the Bloody One!"
"A rookie with a bounty of one billion Beli on his very first try!"
"I heard he killed two Shichibukai and even a Marine Admiral!"
The news quickly spread to the nearby islands.
More and more people gathered at the edge, looking up at the sky.
Upon hearing the words "The Bloody One, "Uchiha Xin's discontent resurfaced.
I just learned this title from Shyarly, and now the Golden Lion is calling me that to my face.
The navy just randomly picked a terrible name, but it spread pretty quickly.
Uchiha Xin looked at Shiki's legs.
"You became like this after Impel Down?"
"Both legs were cut off, and half a ship's rudder was still stuck on its head."
"The name 'Golden Lion' is becoming increasingly ridiculous."
Shiki's laughter stopped.
The nearby pirates all fell silent.
No one dared to mention his legs in front of Shiki.
No one dared to mock him with the ship's rudder above their heads.
That was a wound from the Battle of Aitwall.
This is also the failure that Shiki least wants to be mentioned.
A pirate swallowed hard.
"Has that newcomer gone mad?"
"How dare he mock Shiki to his face!"
The other person took half a step back.
"The last time someone mentioned Impel Down, the captain threw the corpse right off the ship."
"This guy's dead meat."
Shiki glanced down at Oto and Kogarashi, who were being used as substitutes for legs.
A murderous intent emanated from him.
Several surrounding islands trembled slightly.
"Hahahaha!"
"It's been many years since anyone dared to speak to me like that."
"Kid, you've got guts."
Shiki did not act immediately.
Uchiha Xin's ability to appear out of thin air and levitate high in the sky clearly indicates that his methods are not simple.
A bounty of one billion Beli is enough to prove his strength.
It's more valuable to subdue such a person than to kill them.
Shiki opened his arms.
"Back in the day, I fought Roger and Whitebeard for the sea."
"I once broke into the Marine Headquarters all by myself."
"Now, this entire sky is under my control."
"You were able to kill several Shichibukai, that's quite impressive."
"Submit to Laozi."
Join the Flying Pirates.
"I can forgive and forget your earlier offense."
The pirates on the nearby islands were taken aback.
"Captain Shiki wants to recruit him?"
"That kid's incredibly lucky!"
"Dare to offend the captain to his face? Not only will you not die, you'll also be qualified to join the Flying Pirates!"
A pirate who had followed Shiki for many years sneered:
"A billion-dollar bounty certainly warrants the captain's attention."
"However, once he's joined the Flying Pirates, he can only obey the captain's orders."
"How could a mere brat who's just set sail possibly compare to the legendary Golden Lion?"
Shiki also believed that Uchiha Xin would not refuse.
In his view, so-called supernovas are simply people who have never seen the real ocean.
Kill the Shichibukai.
Defeat the reserve Admiral.
These achievements are indeed quite remarkable for a young pirate.
But he is Golden Lion Shiki.
A legendary pirate who rivaled Pirate King Roger.
Being personally recruited by him is already an immense favor.
"Little brat."
I'm only giving you one chance.
"Submit, or die."
Uchiha Xin looked at Shiki.
The navy mistook him for a pirate.
Shiki kept calling him a "little devil."
These people don't seem to have figured out their place.
He is a true god who transcends the world.
He is not the wanted criminal the Navy is talking about.
It's even less likely that he'd become a subordinate of a crippled pirate.
Uchiha Xin's gaze turned completely cold.
" Shiki."
You could have lived a little longer.
"Unfortunately, you insisted on courting death."
The smile on Shiki's face vanished.
"Little brat."
"The fact that I'm willing to recruit you is a sign of my respect for you."
"Since you want to die, I'll grant your wish!"
He raised his right leg.
The Famous Sword Kogarashi, sliced through the air.
A golden sword aura, hundreds of meters long, was instantly unleashed.
Immediately afterwards, Shiki swung his legs repeatedly.
Oto and Kogarashi fell alternately.
" Slicing Wave!"
Several sword energies tore through the clouds, slashing towards Uchiha Xin from different directions.
Before the sword energy even arrived, the surrounding air had already been sliced open.
The pirates on the island below quickly retreated.
"The captain's getting serious!"
"That kind of strike is enough to split an island in two!"
"That brat doesn't even have anywhere to hide!"
Several golden sword energies sealed off the Uchiha Xin.
Uchiha Xin stood still, simply waving his hand casually.
Bang!
The sword energy at the forefront shattered instantly.
The following sword energies also collapsed simultaneously, all turning into scattered air currents.
The shattered sword energy transformed into turbulent currents, sweeping past Uchiha Xin.
Shiki did not make another move.
He hovered high in the sky, his Observation Haki firmly locking onto Uchiha Xin.
Those few Slicing Wave were just a test.
However Uchiha Xin didn't move at all from beginning to end; with just a casual wave of his hand, he shattered all the sword energy.
This level of skill cannot be measured by the standards of an ordinary newcomer.
Shiki abandoned his dismissive attitude.
"Kid, no wonder the Navy offered you a billion-dollar bounty."
"It seems you really did kill those Shichibukai yourself."
Uchiha Xin did not respond.
He thrust his palm forward.
" Divine Vacuum Attack."
An invisible fist force instantly traversed the distance between the two.
Shiki's Observation Haki gave him an early warning.
He did not dodge.
Dark Armament Haki swiftly covered his arms, which he crossed in front of him.
boom!
An invisible fist strike landed head-on.
The clouds behind Shiki exploded on the spot.
Large swaths of air were blasted into white shockwaves that swept outwards to both sides.
Shiki's body slid backward for hundreds of meters.
The Armament Haki covering his arm vibrated continuously, but it was not penetrated.
Oto and Kogarashi through the air, forcibly stabilizing his body.
Shiki lowered his arms.
The Armament Haki remains intact.
"The Invisible Impact?"
"That's fast enough."
"Unfortunately, it's still a little short."
Seeing the Haki emanating from Shiki's arm, Uchiha Xin didn't rush to continue his attack.
Although the Divine Vacuum Attack just now wasn't executed at full power, it was still enough to break through the defenses of most powerful individuals head-on.
Shiki actually managed to take it.
And there were no injuries.
The opponent's Observation Haki detected the attack in advance, and their Armament Haki was applied before it hit.
Both their reaction speed and the strength of their Haki far surpass those of ordinary pirates.
This is the Golden Lion, who is on par with Roger and Whitebeard.
He's not that old guy who would be defeated by Luffy's only recently set sail.
