Black Dragon Nidhogg / Father and Son Reunited, the Giant King Turns Dark

He raised a tentacle from his round body; the blood-red tentacle transformed into a giant hand and slapped Loki hard across the face.

Loki was stunned for a moment before he noticed the little thing on Dimon's shoulder.

To the giants, the Hongjue was like a fly; you wouldn't even notice him if you didn't look closely.

"And what are you? A slime?"

"Please call me Hongjue Zetsu, human!"

"Hahaha... You little thing, you're so cute! If you've got the guts, let me go, and I'll crush you like a worm!"

Dimon raised his hand to stop Hongjue, and chuckled softly:

"To put it bluntly, we are the Seven Deadly Sins. Given your current state, you probably haven't even heard of us. That's not important."

"The important thing is that I'm looking for you to complete a deal that benefits both of us."

The Seven Deadly Sins?

Loki thought for a long time, but he had never heard of the Seven Deadly Sins.

He toned down his frivolous demeanor and began to speak:

"A deal? You're here for me?"

"You could say that, to be precise, they came for your father's remains, which is related to this transaction."

Loki's tone turned cold when the word "father" was mentioned:

"What's there to say about a dead idiot? Do you want to dig up his body to vent your anger?"

Upon hearing this, Dimon couldn't help but chuckle.

The father-son relationship in the world of One Piece is always contradictory and complex.

Yasopp and Usopp.

Dragon and Luffy.

Roger and Ace.

Kaido and Yamato.

Countless examples like this exist.

"Relax, I have no grudge against Harald. The reason I came here to find his body is simply..."

"... Resurrect him!"

Upon hearing this, Loki's pupils contracted sharply.

Chapter 172 Black Dragon Nidhogg

Resurrection... Harald...

Loki was shocked by what Dimon said.

His feelings toward his biological father, Harald, were complex. On the one hand, he resented his biological mother for abandoning him when he was young, and this resentment turned into bitterness in Harald.

On the other hand, he knew that Harald had dedicated his life to the peace of the giants and genuinely respected his wise father.

When he was forced to kill his father, he felt pain, anger, and resentment towards this fate.

Hearing the words "resurrect Harald" from Dimon's mouth, Loki was momentarily stunned into silence.

Can someone who has been dead for nine years come back to life?

Tell me where Harald is buried?

"Wait... wait!"

Loki only snapped out of his daze when Dimon asked again, and he roared:

"Someone of unknown origin, talking nonsense about resurrection? Do you even want to desecrate corpses, you bastards!?"

You don't believe me?

"Who would believe such a thing!"

Loki, agitated, roared, "I'm not talking about resurrection. Among the countless Devil Fruits, it's possible that one possesses the ability to resurrect the dead. What I don't believe is you!"

Dimon understood his feelings perfectly.

It's like a stranger suddenly appearing and saying they can send him back to Earth; he wouldn't easily believe them.

"The person is already dead. Whether you believe it or not, what can you do in your current state?"

Loki was speechless.

He's tied to the tree now, and if this guy really goes to dig up his biological father's grave, there's nothing he can do to stop him.

As for the location of the tomb, you can find out by asking any giant in the Sun World.

Loki calmed down and frowned, saying:

How will you prove you're not a member of the World Government?

What does this have to do with the World Government?

"My idiot Pops was tricked by the World Government! His state before he died was clearly controlled by someone, how would I know? You resurrected him not to control him again?"

"I see..."

Dimon nodded slightly and chuckled, "As a son, it's understandable that you have these concerns. In that case, you can come with me and witness your father's rebirth firsthand."

"You... you're going to let me go?"

Loki was stunned for a moment, then felt a surge of joy in his heart.

He was fed up with being tied up here and unable to move. No matter what the mysterious person in front of him was up to, as long as he could get out of this predicament, he could do whatever he wanted afterward.

"What I possess is high-purity Seastone. To open it, I need the key, and the key... is in the Aurlust Castle in the Sun World."

When asked about the location of the key, Loki hesitated for a moment.

Nine years ago, he fought a bloody battle with his biological father Harald there. After the battle, the castle was abandoned and regarded by the giants as a graveyard for giants.

Therefore, not only was the key that locked him there, but Harald's body was also deep inside the castle.

"No need."

There's no need for Dimon to go all the way to get the key; it's just a mere Seastone chain, and there's more than one way to open it.

Call!

Dimon extended his right palm, releasing a ray of golden light that projected onto Loki, quickly drawing a pentagram magic circle on the ground.

"This is...!!"

Loki's expression changed drastically. He recognized the magic circle; although the colors were different, the graphics and text within it were almost identical.

"You still say you're not from the World Government! There's a black version of this magic circle inside the castle!"

Dimon ignored him.

Once the teleportation magic circle was completed, the Big Eye was summoned.

"Untie the Seastone chains binding him."

"Yes."

The enormous eyeballs rolled their pupils, locking onto Loki.

Loki was startled; what strange creature was it this time...?

Before he could think, Big Eyes had already activated his ability.

Awakening Skill: Pale World

A white border envelops Loki, creating a pure white silhouette.

Loki, who was in the midst of it, did not feel anything unusual. The Seastone on his body was like a painting on a canvas, the colors erased by the painter, and in the end, even its very existence was completely wiped away.

The moment the Seastone disappeared, Loki felt the suppressed power within him return.

He roared, his body crackling with electricity, his bones popping, and his body expanding wildly.

Black scales quickly covered its entire body, and dragon wings that blotted out the sky tore open from its back, causing the earth to tremble. With the flapping of its wings, a hurricane rose from the flat ground.

Loki, transformed into a black dragon, was enormous. Dimon looked up at the sky, his wingspan almost obscuring the entire sky, much larger than Kaido's blue dragon and Sigma's pink dragon form.

Let alone ordinary humans, even giants standing in front of the black dragon would probably look like ants.

"Zoan, Dragon- Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Model: Nidhogg... The treasure of Elbaf, also known as the 'Forbidden Fruit'."

One of the god-tier fruits.

Dimon smiled. If Vegapunk could replicate the Human-Human Fruit, Model: Nika, then it would be next.

Loki regained his long-lost freedom, and his roar shook the entire Underworld.

He looked down at the pure white angel, and seeing that Dimon had immediately recognized his abilities, he couldn't help but say:

"Dagahahaha... I don't know your name, but thanks!"

"You're welcome, it's part of the deal."

Dimon shook his head. "As agreed, it's your turn to take me to your father's grave."

"I'm starting to believe you really did come to resurrect my father, and you're definitely not from the World Government."

Loki shook the dragon head, gesturing for Dimon to climb onto his back.

"The World Government will never set me free. They'll be the first people I cause trouble for once I'm out of here, and then Red-Haired Shanks!"

Dimon flapped his wings and landed on Loki's dragon head.

"You've caused such a commotion; if 'enemies' come looking for trouble later, you'll have to deal with it yourself."

"Hmph, I'm invincible, hold on tight!"

Loki scoffed dismissively, then suddenly flapped his wings and flew towards the Sun World.

Dimon declined to comment.

The black dragon's power is indeed devastating, but it's still a long way from being invincible.

Otherwise, how could this guy have been arrested by the Red Hair Pirates?

Of course, Red-Haired might only bring Loki back to help him, since if Loki keeps causing trouble, Imu will eventually step in and deal with him.

The black dragon broke through the Underworld and descended upon the Sun World in the blink of an eye, its enormous figure immediately attracting countless gazes.

"Doga hahaha... I'm back, Elbaf!"

At the same time.

The middle layer of the Treasure Tree Adam, the Sun World, the Giant Village.

A simple little house near Walrus School.

The man named Gaban suddenly raised his head, rushed out of the house, and looked at the dark shadow that blotted out the sky above him.

"Loki... was that his roar just now? Who released this troublesome person?!"

Chapter 173 Father and Son Reunion, The Darkened Giant King

Gaban stared at the black dragon that blotted out the sky, a look of confusion on his face.

He kept the key at the site of the old royal city, where he was responsible for guarding it. He was certain that the key had not been lost.

Without a key, how was the Seastone unlocked?

"Hey! Loki, what are you doing out here? Who let you go?"

Gaban walked into the street and roared at the black dragon in the sky.

The villagers of the surrounding giant village also noticed that the sky had turned gray, and when they saw the black dragon Loki, their expressions were filled with fear.

"Mr. Mountain, did you release Loki? What do you intend to do?"

No, the key has always been at Aurlust Castle.

Among a group of giants, Gaban, who was only human in size, was inconspicuous.
