Taking the Initiative! The God's Knights Attack! (Continued)

"Oh--"

Loki nodded, seemingly understanding.

Although I didn't quite understand, the gist was that as long as the machine is working properly, you can't see what's happening here from the outside, right?

"That's good enough."

Naito, who was possessing World as always, smiled and said, "This island is located in the heart of my territory, and my base of operations is in this area."

"If we use a projection device to cover it up, then there's virtually no chance of being exposed."

"Um."

Loki nodded in satisfaction.

Then, he lowered his head, looking down at Naito with some disdain, "But, your ability is really disgusting."

Hiding their heads and tails, acting furtively.

For Loki, a warrior who prefers fair and square combat, this was indeed somewhat unpleasant.

"Disgusting? This is the first time I've heard that kind of evaluation."

Naito smiled with great interest.

"Snort,"

Loki snorted. "So, what's next?"

I will take the initiative.

Naito said, "Next, I'll be going to Mary Geoise."

It's not a good idea to start a decisive battle with the World Government right now.

Therefore, the World Government must first apply the brakes.

"Oh?"

Loki's eyes lit up immediately. "Doo-ga-ha-ha-ha! Interesting! I'll go with you!"

"I've been wanting to blast all those scum Celestial Dragons into the sky with a single breath attack for ages!"

You can't go.

Naito, however, said, "Imu's true form is in Mary Geoise. I was able to get there because I was inhabiting another body, so it doesn't matter."

But you can't.

"Hey, you think you can underestimate me?!"

Loki said irritably, "Even if I can't beat that guy Imu, do you think I can't escape?"

Naito's lips twitched slightly as he looked up at him. "Loki, do you lack a proper understanding of your own speed?"

"If you're really bored, then intercept the people sent by the World Government when the time is right."

"Anyway, their final destination will definitely be Elbaf."

Loki, who was initially somewhat annoyed, instantly turned serious.

That's right, Elbaf is not completely out of danger yet!

The World Government and Imu will continue to watch that country.

"Hmph, let's do it that way then."

Loki snorted and didn't object further.

Ultimately, this guy is a good kid at heart and would never stand by and watch his country get into trouble.

"Then you'd better do a good job! Let those scumbags experience what fear and despair really mean!"

Naito grinned, revealing his two rows of white front teeth. "Of course!"

Therefore, Naito did not linger and controlled World's body to soar into the sky.

However, he did not rush directly towards Mary Geoise.

After all, Loki said he wanted to let the Celestial Dragons of Mary Geoise experience what fear and despair truly meant.

Therefore, I still need someone's help.

Naito flew directly to a point in the sky above this sea area.

"Heh heh heh heh, what brings you here, kid?"

In this spacious palace at the center of the island, Naito saw the Golden Lion.

Although almost a year has passed, this guy looks even younger than he did last year.

There was no other way; after Naito had Law reattach his legs last year and removed the ship's wheel from his head, the Golden Lion's mental state became very healthy.

When you have a youthful mindset, your body naturally becomes younger as well.

For nearly a year, Golden Lion spent most of his time in this sea area, remotely controlling his territory in the front part of the New World.

The World Government and the Navy did not take any action in that area.

After all, they were also afraid that the Golden Lion would go berserk again.

Therefore, even though the Golden Lion conducted several more recruitment drives during this period, the Navy ultimately pretended not to see them.

"I'm preparing to go to Mary Geoise to see the King of the World."

Naito smiled and said, "So, want to come with me?"

"Oh?"

The Golden Lion's eyes lit up instantly, and he floated up from his massive throne. "Hahahaha! Of course, I have to go and lend a hand!"

And so, very quickly, Naito and the Golden Lion soared into the sky.

The invisible projection condensed into a flying shuttle, enveloping the two of them. Then, with the acceleration of the More-More Fruit, they soared through the sky in an instant.

"So,"

The Golden Lion sat cross-legged in the flying shuttle, watching Naito with great interest. "What exactly are you trying to do? Or rather, what have you done?"

"Well, in other words, we rescued a group of giants from over 800 years ago and learned some historical truths about the Void Century. The World Government got anxious and decided to go to war with us."

Naito said casually, "I don't think it's the right time for a full-scale war yet, so I'm going to Mary Geoise to have a chat with the King of the World."

"Um?"

The Golden Lion, who was smoking a cigar, froze. The cigar fell from his mouth into his crotch, burning a hole in his pants, and then slid inside.

Wow!

Golden Lion frantically pulled out a cigar, while staring at Naito incredulously, "Is this some kind of hallucination caused by my dementia, or did you really say a lot of incomprehensible things?"

Naito shrugged.

"So,"

The Golden Lion, too lazy to even care about the hole in his pants, stared intently at Naito, "What exactly happened?"

So Naito told the Golden Lion about his alliance with Loki and the subsequent liberation of the Great Hammer Pirates.

He emphasized that the giants of the Great Hammer Pirates came from eight hundred years ago, and then told Golden Lion a story from eight hundred years ago, before omitting the fact that Pluton was created by the Great Hammer Pirates.

"Is that so?"

The Golden Lion's eyes burned with intensity, its gaze blazing. "Hahahaha! Was that era eight hundred years ago really that amazing!"

Right?

Naito raised the corners of his mouth in a smile.

However, this era is no less remarkable.

Because I live in this era.

"So, Night King, has Loki really become that strong now?"

The Golden Lion certainly knows Loki; he was with Golden Lion when he first went to Elbaf Rocks find Harald.

This old man witnessed firsthand how Rocks beat up the children.

It was precisely because of this acquaintance that the Golden Lion found it difficult to understand the Loki that the Night King was referring to.

"Um,"

Naito nodded slightly. "I never saw how strong Rocks was at his peak, but the current Loki is definitely no less powerful than him, and may even be stronger."

"..."

Golden Lion lit another cigar but didn't say anything.

After a moment of silence, he asked again, "So, how do you plan to talk to that King of the World?"

"First,"

Naito's lips curled into a smile. "Of course, you'll need to prepare a gift for me first."

The Golden Lion instantly understood, and his smile immediately turned mocking. "Heh heh heh! Is one island suitable?"

"Nothing could be more suitable."

Naito smiled, but his eyes were filled with a chilling glint. "I hope Imu will like it."

"Hahahaha!"

The Golden Lion laughed loudly, "Interesting, the King of the World? I missed out on God Valley, but this time, I'll give him a good sparring match!"

"No, Shiki,"

Naito shook his head. "You just need to deliver the gift to me. Imu is too dangerous. Let me go and check him out."

"Anyway, it doesn't matter to me if this body is smashed to pieces."

Today, World's role has become increasingly weak; the only use of the More-More Fruit for Naito is to enhance his mobility.

"Um?"

The Golden Lion was taken aback, then its eyes gradually widened.

Immediately.

"Hahaha! So you're finally willing to reveal your abilities! World was just your puppet after all!"

Golden Lion had already guessed that.

Naito just smiled. "But, Shiki, after you deliver my gift, don't just sit around. Go pick up a few more people for me."

"Um?"

The Golden Lion's tone turned somewhat displeased, "What do you take me for? Your porter?"

"Don't rush,"

Naito said meaningfully, "It's about going to a place you know very well and picking up some people you know very well."

"What?"
