Chapter 181
The Five Elders believed they had accounted for every factor.
This time, they will surely kill Five Emperor Luo Xing and eliminate a major threat to the World Government.
Lady Im will surely commend them!
Meanwhile, Sengoku, upon receiving the Five Elders' call, was filled with shock.
That man's audacity is too great—he dared to kill three Celestials outright!
Why does he dare act so recklessly? Doesn't he fear pursuit by the Marines and the Government?
Sengoku frowned deeply, sensing something was off.
Ever since he received word of Luo Xing from Drake, Sengoku had felt something was amiss.
Because Luo Xing had been far too conspicuous in Sabaody—no mask, no concealment—clearly unlike his usual modus operandi.
"Is that man planning something?"
Sengoku harbored deep unease.
Yet no matter how hard he racked his brain, he could not fathom what Luo Xing's plan might be.
After all, Kaido of the Beasts in Wano had remained silent.
The Beasts Pirates in Dressrosa and Punk Hazard had also remained silent.
With only Five Emperor Luo Xing alone, under the very eyes of the Government and Marines, what grand move could he possibly orchestrate?
Sengoku simply could not understand.
Helpless, he called Kaku and informed her that CP0 would join their operation.
Sengoku also ordered Huang Yuan to spare no effort in trapping Five Emperor Luo Xing in Sabaody—even if it meant doubling Huang Yuan's salary tenfold, it was acceptable!
Huang Yuan's eyes lit up at once.
Oh? Finally willing to raise this old man's salary?
Very well, very well—I am still a Marine, bound by justice. This time, I'll capture a few more pirates.
Thus,
Huang Yuan ordered the helmsman to increase the battleship's speed to maximum and rush toward Sabaody at full throttle.
Meanwhile,
CP0, departing from Mary Geoise, was also moving at top speed.
……
……
Inside the Sabaody Slave Auction House.
Even if Luo Xing did not know what was happening with Sengoku and the Five Elders,
he could guess that with three Celestials dead, those old bastards would go mad.
The Marines and World Government's formidable forces were surely already heading this way.
The time left for Luo Xing was, in truth, extremely limited.
Yet Luo Xing's face showed no sign of disturbance; he still wore that faint, mocking smile.
He walked toward the Straw Hat Pirates, Enma in hand.
Lei Li gasped: "Stop!"
Hum!
A powerful aura suddenly surged from Lei Li's body.
And spread outward in concentric waves, like ripples.
"Is this… Conqueror's Haki?!"
Kid, who had been trying to slip away, felt his body suddenly grow heavy.
Killua felt the same; he worriedly said:
"If the legendary King of the Sea Lei Li and Five Emperor Luo Xing clash, the Marines and World Government won't stand idly by—this place is no place to linger!"
At that moment,
the pressure crushing them suddenly multiplied several times over!
It became as immense as a mountain, making even walking difficult!
"Impossible…"
Kid's eyes filled with terror as he stared fixedly at the man holding Enma.
"Is this Five Emperor's Conqueror's Haki? It's stronger than King of the Sea Lei Li's pressure!"
Yes.
Luo Xing had also unleashed his Conqueror's Haki, countering Lei Li's.
Boom!
Two immensely powerful Conqueror's Haki clashed like two ferocious tigers.
Black-red currents flickered through the air.
The massive shockwave tore the entire auction house apart in an instant.
Everyone was exposed to the sunlight.
The people of the Sabaody Islands, upon seeing this scene, froze in stunned silence!
And when they saw the three Celestial corpses, they screamed in terror and turned to flee.
But it was too late—when the colliding Conqueror's Haki from Luo Xing and Lei Li struck their heads, they immediately fainted.
Only a few remained conscious.
Among them were Fei Gang's Capone Bege and the gluttonous Jioley Bonney.
The two had previously formed a brief alliance at the restaurant, planning to come and see Luo Xing, the Empress, and their group.
Yet they never expected that the scene they witnessed would be so shocking and outrageous!
Three World Nobles, the Celestial Dragons, had been killed!
The legendary Silvers Rayleigh appeared, engaging in a clash of Conqueror's Haki with that mysterious man!
"Damn it, the power gap is way too huge!"
Capone Bege's heart skipped a beat, and he quietly retreated backward.
He had only been interested in Luo Xing's identity, which was why he had come with Bonney to watch.
But after witnessing Luo Xing clash Conqueror's Haki with Silvers Rayleigh, he knew this man was not someone he could provoke.
413
Bege did not want to die for nothing!
Big Eater Bonney was not stupid either.
This was a battle between the world's top-tier powerhouses; even though she was a Supernova, she had no right to get involved at this moment.
On a certain rooftop not far behind the two of them.
Apoo, Urouge, Hawkins, and Drake, who had returned to keep watch, stood there.
Apoo swallowed hard:
"Just the pressure of the Conqueror's Haki is So Heavy. Is this the strength of a King of the New World?"
The Strange Monk Urouge forced a smile:
"After all, he is the man who made Enel, the God of Skypiea, submit; it is not surprising to have such strength."
Hawkins was still playing with his Tarot cards.
"Silvers Rayleigh's survival rate: seventy percent."
"The mysterious unknown man's survival rate: one hundred percent."
"Captain Kid's survival rate: twenty percent."
"Straw Hat Luffy's survival rate: one percent."
"Our survival rate: fifty percent."
After finishing his divination, Hawkins looked up at Apoo and the other two, saying:
"We only have a fifty percent survival rate; what we should do now is leave this place immediately!"
Hawkins' words made Apoo and Urouge's hearts pound with fear.
Apoo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said:
"Hawkins, you charlatan, you only know how to use this stuff to scare people!"
Urouge also said, "We are not even participating in their fight; why is our survival rate only fifty percent?"
