Chapter 193: Killing Intent Bai Cangshu, Completely Insane (3k)

"Fire!"

Bang, bang, bang, bang...

Three warships turned their hulls simultaneously, their cannons roaring at full power. Every Navy soldier on deck was injured, and Chaton stood at the very front with bandages wrapped around him; the leisurely expression on his face was gone.

In the surrounding sea, there were many corpses of Navy soldiers and Youjie Demons.

Onigumo had bandages tied around his face, and one eye was also covered, though it was unclear if it was blinded or just injured. His long hair behind him still gripped blood-stained swords like arms. Just moments ago, he had almost single-handedly slaughtered all the infected, maddened Navy soldiers on the ship, including two field-grade officers.

The power of 【Life Return】 allowed Onigumo to be in better condition than Doberman, even though he had suffered the most severe injuries during the previous Thunder Greeting.

"Headquarters' reinforcements will arrive soon. These monsters... these scum, must be cleared out, leaving not a single one!"

Spandam, terrified out of his wits, was cowering in the cabin. Hearing the several Headquarters Vice Admirals still issuing the order to fire, he poked his head out and shouted,

"If the shelling destroys 【Golden Town】, the World Government will not let you off!"

Doberman stood behind Spandam with a cold expression. His lips moved, and his voice appeared behind Spandam.

"At a time like this, if one more CP agency official is lost in battle, we will simply add a line to our report."

"Be smarter, Spandam~ Officer."

The cold tone of the final word "Officer" made Spandam shudder. He no longer dared to contest command with these powerful Vice Admirals from Headquarters.

The Navy's greatest reliance for galloping across the seas and dominating the first half of the Grand Line was this sound firepower structure and vast personnel composition.

The vast majority of Pirate crews were crushed by rounds of shelling before they could even enter the boarding battles that were suitable for Pirate officers to display their skills.

Gion and the others were on guard against a possible attack by Enel, but the opponent did not appear, seemingly held back by the changes on Skuld Island.

This situation did not make Chaton relax.

The complexity of this sea area had already exceeded the scope of what he, an 【Admiral Candidate】, could handle. The power of that Logia Ability User who called himself a god, along with these endless, bizarre phenomena, made Chaton afraid to venture deeper.

Counting Vice Admiral Dalmatian who had just entered the island, two Navy Vice Admirals had already gone onto the island, and no news had been sent back. The island seemed like a trench that devoured everything, swallowing all life.

"Continue the shelling! Bombard that island with all our ammunition!"

Onigumo continued to roar, and Chaton did not stop him. He judged that under these circumstances, it was highly probable that no ordinary people were left alive on that island.

"Big guy... the big guy is still on that island!"

A timid voice sounded from behind. Chaton turned his head. The massive Orgins subconsciously tensed his muscles, but quickly relaxed again. He could feel that these Headquarters Vice Admirals were in a completely different dimension from him.

No matter how he guarded himself, it was useless.

Cindy felt some regret now. Clearly, the big guy had saved her on the sea, but because of the blood he was stained with, she had feared him. In the end, she hadn't even managed a proper goodbye before watching him leave.

The big guy was not a normal person, and perhaps not a good person either. Cindy could feel it. Unlike Uncle Orgins, a Pirate who only looked fierce, and unlike Uncle Rushido, a Navy soldier who was always shouting that everything was useless, the big guy was cold, cruel, and had no reverence for life.

Perhaps he had killed many people...

Cindy had always been aware of this, but when she was in a desperate situation, in the sewers of Skuld Island where there was no hope, and she was grabbed by that priest, she had pinned her hopes on this "great villain" to solve everything...

Just like many times, when she hated the cruelty of that god, rather than watching good people die one by one, she would pray for an even more vicious guy to exact an even crueler revenge on that god.

Fighting evil with evil, being more evil than evil...

Cindy was not as innocent as she appeared on the surface, and she felt guilty for this mentality.

Chaton merely glanced at this little one; these two would likely be the only survivors of this incident...

"Vice Admiral! A large number of unidentified ships have appeared in the rear!"

"Vice Admiral, Headquarters has sent a communication requesting us to cooperate with the World Government to seize 【Golden Town】!"

"Lord Gion, Headquarters communication: the Donquixote Family has appeared in the waters of Mock Town..."

"Lord Onigumo, there is news that the Golden Emperor, Gild Taizhuoluo, has appeared in the first half of the Grand Line and is heading toward this sea area."

On several warships, the communications officers suddenly became busy as a large amount of information was transmitted simultaneously.

Gion and the others had excellent hearing and caught all the messages.

She took a deep breath. Clearly, the attraction of 【Golden Town】 was far beyond imagination, and the true big shots of this world were starting to pay attention here.

"Request support from an Admiral. I think the intensity of the war here has completely exceeded the scope of what we can handle."

Chaton spoke thus, but the next moment, a Navy soldier rushed out of the cabin, excited:

"Vice Admiral Garp is sailing toward this sea area!"

——

【You have suffered the conversion of God's Hand Roland. Attention, ex051, your Bloodline is becoming an Apostle...】

【Apostle transformation failed】

【You have suffered the erosion of Biological Colonization Armor: King's Left Arm. Attention, ex051, you are about to enter a near-death state...】

【You are suffering the conversion of God's Hand Roland. Cell activity is abnormally increased...】

A large number of panel prompts kept refreshing before Bai Cangshu's eyes, as if the system had a bug, repeating in a cycle.

Bai Cangshu's body was unable to make ends meet under the massive extraction of flesh and life energy by the King's Left Arm, decaying rapidly. Consequently, his body, having lost its resistance, could not exempt itself from that erosion.

Thus, the cells in Bai Cangshu's body were activated in large numbers. At this moment, the surface of his body was completely wrapped in those tumors bearing various human faces, as if he had entered an embryo.

The conversion of the God Hand could never be completed because that massive amount of bodily activity and energy was rapidly drained by the King's Left Arm; the two malignant forces reached a balance to a certain extent.

Bai Cangshu's body became a vessel for the two forces.

Bai Cangshu felt the changes in his body every moment, his expression calm. At this moment, his 【Transparent World】 seemed to have advanced further, able to observe more changes in his body.

The proliferation of those internal organs, the loss of that bodily energy.

The trajectory of that blood flow, and the abnormal power of extraction coming from his left arm.

Crack!

Bai Cangshu's left hand suddenly trembled. That withered left arm, which had felt nothing at all, was now becoming close to a normal person's arm; except for the skin which remained withered, the muscles inside were filling up again.

Every time Bai Cangshu's blood flowed to his left arm, it would rapidly ignite like a flame.

Bai Cangshu could feel a powerful force like molten lava gathering in his arm. Just by clenching his left hand, he felt explosive energy.

"Yes, just like that..."

"Only by controlling this arm can we grasp the sword Guts left behind, and only then can we..."

"Fucking kill that son of a bitch, the God of the Abyss!"

Whispers appeared out of thin air in Bai Cangshu's mind; Bai Cangshu was startled and looked at the space panel, but there were no prompts.

White light enveloped Bai Cangshu; Bai Cangshu himself did not even notice that his right hand, which had been wreathed in scarlet light, was now completely shrouded in holy white light.

【Virtue Sequence · Third Tier · Hope Morning Star】

Luo Lan's water-like form seeped out from the human faces on the giant arm and began to wrap around Bai Cangshu's body, and his Spirit also began to invade Bai Cangshu's body bit by bit.

This was the process of his resurrection; he had always been waiting for a possibility, a possibility that would allow him to take revenge on the God of the Abyss.

The tragedy of Guts and himself should not have ended that way, and so, he had obtained a 【Hope】.

He looked at Bai Cangshu with benevolence, but the next second, his face began to twist; he could no longer suppress his malice and had to complete his incarnation here, otherwise, he would never be able to leave this world again, never be able to become a Reincarnator.

His own body had already been shattered, but as long as he obtained this body before him, whether it was the leader or those Black Kings, they would eventually accept him...

Luo Lan's thinking was chaotic, without Logic, and without cause and effect; he acted entirely on obsession at this moment, his thinking very erratic, yet he firmly believed his actions were correct.

Because he had indeed seen this possibility in the short time after becoming a 【God Hand】.

He chose to stand within this possibility; even if killed, even if trapped in this Derivative World, imprisoned, and subjected to Electric Shock, he firmly believed the future would head in this direction.

He would be resurrected in a brand-new posture, within this body with even better talent.

【The Star Child is destined to fall into darkness】

This was Causality; the Virtue-type Reincarnator · Hope Morning Star, ultimately falling into the path of the Scarlet Sin.

The world was meant to be this way.

His body gradually merged into Bai Cangshu's body, but Bai Cangshu's left arm suddenly clenched into a fist.

Pitch-black lightning and flames erupted together.

Bang!

The surrounding flesh and blood shattered piece by piece, and those faces representing various intense human desires broke one after another.

Half of Bai Cangshu's face became serene and peaceful, while the other half revealed a cruel smile.

"If you want my body, then you might as well be more thorough..."

【You have used Inheritance Crystal: Killing Intent Wave】

The purple-black Wave instantly submerged into Bai Cangshu's flesh.

Kill!

Slaughter!

Massacre!

Butchery!

Kill, kill, kill!

The frenzied killing intent instantly tore through Bai Cangshu's Spirit; even a Spirit strength that touched the Extreme Value could not resist that surging killing intent at all.

The muscles on Bai Cangshu's face became ferocious bit by bit, and even the peaceful half of his face could no longer maintain its calm.

"If you want my body, then let all the consciousnesses come and fight for it together!"

Within Bai Cangshu's body, a great disaster had already been hidden; countless vengeful spirits were lurking within, and at this moment, Bai Cangshu's main consciousness was suppressed by two external forces, and a large number of vengeful spirits sensed an opportunity; in an instant, pitch-black spiritual power fluctuations also began to Flash on Bai Cangshu's skin.

"Ha, haha..."

"Hahahaha!"

Amidst the frenzied laughter, the arm over a thousand meters tall began to shatter inch by inch, and blood and debris washed down like a waterfall, drowning everything in sight.
