Retaliation

It represents absolute deterrence; if an island were to be thrown at it, even the World Government would have to tremble in fear.

The Night King, on the other hand, is incredibly mobile; with him around, there's no need to worry about attacks from the World Government.

But.

"You want me to join your ranks?"

Golden Lion sneered, "What a joke! Who do you think I am!"

"Didn't you just say we're allies?"

Naito hadn't expected to directly pull this guy into the Dream World and turn him into Hub.

Even Rocks doesn't respect the Golden Lion, so it's practically impossible to subdue him.

"I'll use this favor here, Shiki. Until we dethrone that King of the World, we'll be the most unbreakable ally."

The Golden Lion was slightly taken aback.

Then, the lion, covered in blood, couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha! Night King! Since you've said so, do I have any reason to refuse?!"

He looked at Naito and said,

"My life is still quite valuable, so I won't betray you until you betray me!"

"Very good!"

Chapter 191 Revenge

High in the sky, two large hands clasped together tightly.

"Hehehehe! From now on, please guide me, Night King!"

The Golden Lion burst into loud laughter.

"Just don't hold me back."

Naito's lips curled slightly.

Of course, this doesn't mean that from then on, the Golden Lion can be trusted 100%.

But at least compared to their previous state of being fair-weather friends, their alliance is now much stronger.

The Golden Lion is unlikely to betray them unless there is a fundamental conflict of interest between them.

The older generation of great pirates almost all shared one trait: no matter how despicable, cunning, treacherous, or cruel they were, they always adhered to certain moral principles.

Charlotte Linlin was like this, Kaido was like this, and Whitebeard, Rocks, Roger, and others were even more so.

The same applies to the Golden Lion.

"So,"

The Golden Lion looked at Naito with great interest. "Good friend, are you inviting me to stay in your lair?"

Don't talk nonsense. Are you trying to pry into my secrets?

Naito replied without hesitation, "In that case, we can become enemies right now."

"Hahaha! You charlatan!"

Golden Lion wasn't surprised at all. "Forget it, don't worry, I'll stay far away from those countries under your control. Just give me some space."

"Well then, shouldn't we have a proper discussion now?"

Golden Lion wiped the blood from his face, his smile gradually turning maniacal. "How can we make the World Government understand the consequences of messing with me!"

"Whatever makes you happy."

Naito didn't care about this; the biggest goal had been achieved, and now that the Golden Lion wanted to run wild, let him be.

"Hahaha! You say the World Government possesses ultra-long-range detection capabilities? Could they be watching us right now?"

Golden Lion said mockingly, "Then let them watch as I destroy an Affiliated Nation of the World Government, how about that!"

"I said, it's up to you."

While sacrificing the population of an entire nation would be a great pity, it still represents millions of Dream Hub.

However, if this can make the World Government behave itself, it might not be a bad thing.

At least this way, when the World Government begins to expand its territory towards the Affiliated Nation within its borders, it will think twice.

"Hahaha! What are we waiting for!"

The Golden Lion laughed impatiently, "Night King! Take me there now!"

Naito glanced at him again. "I think you should treat your injuries first."

That Golden Lion got a really bad beating just now.

The most serious injury was the penetrating wound caused by Kizaru's laser; it was a real puncture through his chest.

"This kind of thing can happen anytime!"

Golden Lion, however, said nonchalantly, "If I don't vent this anger now, I might as well be dead!"

Wow, that's impressive, you're really angry?

However, it really doesn't matter. As everyone knows, this level of injury is only considered a minor injury in this world.

What else is there to say?

This guy isn't afraid of death himself, so what does Naito care?

He grabbed the Golden Lion by the shoulder and headed towards the nearest World Government Member States.

Just a few minutes ago, on the sea beneath that very sky that had just become a battlefield.

The sea was churning violently, with one huge wave after another spreading across its surface.

Because at that moment, huge fragments of the island were crashing heavily into the sea, creating towering waves.

On the giant waves, three naval warships bobbed and swayed with the current.

Fortunately, these warships were large enough that even such huge waves could not harm them.

On the bow of one of the giant ships, Gion gripped the ship's railing with one hand, gazing up at the sky, a hint of joy on the woman's beautiful face.

An island fell from the sky.

In other words, Golden Lion's Float-Float Fruit ability has been deactivated.

This means we won, right?

Golden Lion Shiki, who once posed a great threat to Mary Geoise, has indeed been successfully defeated, right?

But--

"Something's wrong! Vice Admiral Gion!"

Viola's anxious voice came from behind, "The Golden Lion has been rescued!"

"What?"

Gion turned around in disbelief.

Having sailed together for so many days, and with Gion being one of the most prominent high-ranking officers in the Marine Headquarters, Gion was naturally aware of Viola's abilities.

In fact, Viola had been watching the battle in the sky from the very beginning, and occasionally excitedly shared with Gion how badly the Golden Lion was being beaten.

How could the situation have changed so drastically in such a short time?

Viola's face was somewhat pale; in fact, the sudden change in the sky had left her completely stunned.

Then the shattered island fell from the sky, and the entire warship was tossed about by the giant waves. She didn't even have a chance to speak.

Only now did she have the opportunity to tell Vice Admiral Gion the devastating news.

"It's World! The World Destroyer, Bandi World!"

"World!"

Gion's pupils contracted.

How did that guy get here?

Was it just a coincidence?

However, in any case--

"Viola! Keep an eye on them! Track their movements before they go out of your sight!"

"Yes!"

Viola nodded emphatically.

Then, Gion looked up at the sky and saw figures falling from the sky.

Those who returned empty-handed landed.

Later, in a spacious room inside the warship.

Navy officers of the rank of Rear Admiral and above gathered here.

"What on earth is going on, Professor Zephyr?!"

Vice Admiral Vice Admiral Simon, the Marine Guerrilla Unit Vice Admiral, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Why would the World Destroyer be here! It can't just be a simple coincidence, can it? The odds of that are far too low!"

Gion said gravely, "I'm afraid someone really did leak the information."

"..."

Zephyr didn't speak, he just pursed his lips, his face dark and somewhat unpleasant.

"Hmm, not many people know about this operation."

Kizaru leaned back in a chair, his tone still somewhat leisurely even in this situation, "Even the soldiers on board don't know our destination."

"The most likely suspect is still Shichibukai."

Rear Admiral Gavin of the Marine Guerrilla Unit, a somewhat chubby man, speculated, "In the end, these guys aren't clean to begin with. Hanafuda, that guy, has even been entangled with the Beasts Pirates for a long time!"

"It's not impossible."

Zephyr nodded slightly, agreeing with the guess. "However, let's investigate the specifics first."

Is he really one of the Shichibukai?

It's hard to say.

Zephyr didn't want to think that way either, but the truth is, the government and the navy are very likely not clean.

This isn't impossible. Didn't Doflamingo, the former Shichibukai who was captured by the Navy recently, have a spy planted at G-5 base?

Is this the time to discuss this kind of thing?

Leaning calmly against the wall, Naito, who had remained silent until now, spoke calmly, "The Golden Lion's revenge shouldn't be far off."

"I had Viola keep an eye on the Golden Lion and World!"
