Chapter 306

"Let me tell you a secret, Mr. Vergo: I haven't eaten for three years!"

Vergo's eyes flickered.

Although Lord Luo Xing's main mission for him was to gather internal intelligence on the Celestial Dragons,

he naturally needed to know about other aspects of the Navy's intelligence as well.

Vergo asked calmly:

"If you haven't eaten for three years, how do you maintain your physical strength?"

Green Bull said confidently:

"As for physical strength, all I need to do is absorb the nutrients from my enemies' bodies!"

"Haha, Mr. Vergo, that's somewhat similar to your Zoan-type Devil Fruit, the Vampire, absorbing stamina!"

257. Green Bull, more extreme than Akainu, invents the Enlarge and Shrink Lamp!

Vergo's Bat Fruit: Mythical Zoan: Vampire Form.

Influenced by the Monster Cell, it evolved,

granting not only the basic blood-sucking ability but also the power to absorb human stamina.

That is, when scratched by Vergo, as blood flows out, stamina drains away simultaneously.

Previously,

during Vergo's clash with Fujitora,

Fujitora accidentally took a scratch from Vergo.

Though the wound was light, the loss of stamina was significant.

This left Fujitora greatly shocked.

As a Logia-type Forest Fruit user, Green Bull

did not consume the Monster Cell, yet still possesses the ability to absorb energy from human bodies and replenish himself.

This peculiar ability is unique in the World of Pirates.

Furthermore,

this ability is quite cruel.

Those drained of their internal nutrients will undoubtedly become dried husks.

Their deaths will be extremely gruesome.

Such a ruthless method of killing corresponds to Green Bull's extreme personality.

It was said earlier that

Green Bull idolizes Akainu Sakazuki and likewise upholds absolute justice.

But to some extent,

Green Bull is even more extreme than Akainu!

19

Green Bull's justice is the justice of maintaining the World Government's rule and protecting the Celestial Dragons!

In Green Bull's view,

the stability of The Present World depends on the government's rule and the existence of the Celestial Dragons.

The Celestial Dragons are gods; the World Government is the symbol of divine authority.

Whoever dares to harm the World Government is opposing the gods!

They must be ruthlessly eradicated!

Not only that,

Green Bull does not care at all about the common people of nations that have not joined the World Government.

He simply does not care.

In the original story,

after Straw Hat Luffy defeated Kaido and ascended to become one of the Four Emperors,

Green Bull arrived in Wano Country to capture Straw Hat Luffy.

He said to the samurai of Wano Country who blocked him:

"Your Wano Country is not a member of the World Government and receives no protection from the Navy."

"That means I am free to act against you."

"What a pity. As long as I can capture Straw Hat Luffy, it matters not if tens of thousands of people in Wano Country die."

Green Bull's extreme and cold-blooded nature is evident here.

It is exactly like Akainu shelling the civilian ship at Ohara back then!

No, he is even more ruthless and cold-blooded than Akainu!

Such an individual with an extreme personality,

possessing the powerful ability of the Forest Fruit, which contains infinite vitality and danger,

is certainly not good news

for forces opposing the Navy and the World Government.

Vergo's eyes narrowed slightly.

Deep within his pupils, threads of icy killing intent flashed, barely perceptible.

Green Bull was unaware of Vergo's killing intent,

still wearing a carefree, roguish demeanor, and chuckled:

"Mr. Vergo, if you have time, I'd like to spar with you too."

"Is your ability to absorb blood and stamina stronger, or does my absorption of nutrients take the lead?"

Green Bull laughed and said:

"I am very confident!"

"After all, the endless forests are all my helpers!"

On this vast sea, what is most abundant?

Ranking first is, of course, seawater.

And second must be plants.

All plants are Green Bull's partners, all controlled by Green Bull's ability.

The level of difficulty can be imagined.

Even Vergo, whose strength had surged repeatedly, felt extreme wariness in his heart.

However, Vergo's greatest advantage was that Green Bull did not yet know his true identity.

In a direct one-on-one duel,

Vergo might find it hard to kill Green Bull for a while,

but if it were a surprise attack—

Vergo had ample confidence that Green Bull would either die or suffer grave injuries!

Carefully hiding these thoughts, Vergo showed no sign of abnormality on his face and said calmly:

"There will be an opportunity for us to spar; do not be impatient, Green Bull."

"Hahaha, then I am looking forward to it!"

Green Bull rubbed his palms together and said excitedly.

The two ascended to the Holy Land Mary Geoise.

Soon,

God Knights came to welcome them.

The God Knights are the guards of the Celestial Dragons and also serve as the internal adjudication body for the Celestial Dragons.

If a Celestial Dragon commits a crime against another Celestial Dragon, they too must be punished.

Under the guidance of the God Knights,

Vergo and Green Bull entered the Pan Gu City directly.

Here, it was already extremely close to the Celestial Dragons' residence—the Divine Realm.

Vergo could vaguely feel that

inside this magnificent, golden city that gathered the world's most precious treasures,

something terrible was hidden!
