Chapter 26

However, seeing Kizaru appear before them, everyone couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope: "Did the Admiral take care of that Uchiha Madara?"

Kizaru saw what they were thinking and gave a miserable smile, only looking in a certain direction.

Sentomaru and the others immediately looked in that direction, and their pupils shrank violently.

"How is this possible?!"

What did they see?

They saw Uchiha Madara walking toward them!

Even more terrifying, Uchiha Madara didn't look injured at all!

In other words, the battle between Kizaru and Uchiha Madara was not what they had imagined; the true result was that Kizaru had been completely defeated!

This kind of thing completely overturned their worldview. Some of the Marines who were already severely injured fainted on the spot because they couldn't handle the shock!

Just then, something even more unacceptable to Sentomaru and the others happened.

"Whoosh!"

With a soft sound, a golden figure flew out from the smoke-filled sea and landed on the island beneath their feet.

This golden figure was naturally Lin Xuan’s golden Susanoo!

Looking at Lin Xuan hidden inside the Susanoo, he was also unscathed, and the three Celestial Dragons were also in his hands, having escaped the disaster.

Uchiha Madara was clearly surprised when he saw Lin Xuan’s golden Susanoo.

He whispered to himself: "A golden Susanoo? Truly unheard of!"

Of course, only he could hear this.

Meanwhile—

"Thump!"

When Sentomaru saw Lin Xuan appear, he finally couldn't take the blow, and his injuries took effect, causing him to collapse to the ground and fall unconscious.

Lin Xuan glanced at him and shook his head repeatedly, saying: "So-called Marines, nothing more than this!"

Uchiha Madara nodded in agreement and said: "Indeed, it is very disappointing!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Kizaru and the few Marines who hadn't fainted were furious, clenching their fists.

PS: The fourth update of the day is here. Please give flowers, ten-point reviews, and all kinds of support!

At this moment, Kizaru and the others felt they had been greatly insulted!

Lin Xuan and Uchiha Madara were looking down on their Marines!

"Don't look down on us!"

A severely injured Marine Commander shouted angrily: "We Marines still have many strong fighters, and many powerful weapons and forces!"

"That's right, you look down on our Marines so much, you will definitely receive the harshest sanctions!" Other Marines also spoke up to defend the Marines' dignity.

This wasn't just them being stubborn; they truly believed it.

If Lin Xuan and Uchiha Madara hadn't attacked so suddenly, and if they hadn't had zero intelligence on them, how could they have been defeated so miserably?

Kizaru didn't say a word.

Because he felt that saying such things at this time would only bring more humiliation, so he remained silent.

Seeing the Marines defending their justice, shouting until their faces were red, Lin Xuan just laughed and said: "Very good. Since you are so unconvinced, I will give you another chance to prove yourselves!"

Hearing this, the Marines stopped shouting and stared tightly at Lin Xuan.

Kizaru finally spoke.

He asked in a deep voice: "What do you mean by this?"

Lin Xuan dispersed his Susanoo and looked at Kizaru, saying: "I'll give you one month. Within this month, you Marines can gather the strongest forces you can, and we will have another big battle! The location will be this Sabaody Archipelago. At that time, I will also bring the strong fighters from my side to fight you to the death!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of Kizaru and the others changed.

Kizaru asked again in a deep voice: "Are you trying to make an enemy of the entire World Government?!"

When he said this, there was a hint of disbelief in his tone.

Because he truly couldn't believe that anyone in this world would dare to challenge the Marines head-on and even give them time to prepare for a decisive battle. This was something even the Four Emperors wouldn't dare to do!

Lin Xuan laughed and said: "You can understand it that way! Anyway, if we lose, we'll leave it to you to deal with us. If I win, then I'm sorry, besides admitting that your Marines are just average in strength, I will take over this Sabaody Archipelago!"

Take over the Sabaody Archipelago?

Hearing this, Kizaru and the other Marines were shocked, followed by anger.

Are you kidding? The Sabaody Archipelago is an extremely critical island. If it were really forcibly occupied, where would the Marines' face, and the face of the entire World Government, go?

Lin Xuan ignored their anger and said directly: "Alright, enough said. Just report the news! Then, go save people. In the explosion just now, maybe one or two little kittens survived. Save them, and maybe you'll have a better chance in the decisive battle a month from now!"

As he said this, he tugged on the dog leashes tied around the necks of the three members of the Rosward family and said: "As for these three, I'll take them away. Don't worry, I'll keep their dog lives for now. I hope you have the ability to rescue them in a month, otherwise, I will put them on trial in front of the whole world!"

Public trial of the Celestial Dragons!

This was another explosive piece of news!

When Kizaru and the others heard this, they almost blacked out.

Lin Xuan didn't wait for them to digest the news and waved his hand at Uchiha Madara: "Alright, Madara, it's time for us to go!"

Uchiha Madara naturally had no objections. The battle was over, and there was no point in staying here, so he followed him toward the sea.

Arriving at the seaside, Lin Xuan said to Uchiha Madara: "Use Wood Release and get us a boat!"

Uchiha Madara’s mouth twitched slightly, and he snorted: "You really know everything, even that I can use Wood Release!"

Lin Xuan grinned: "I told you, I know far more than you think! Since you worked so hard this time, I'll tell you some secrets about your world later. You'll definitely be interested!"

"Secrets?" I have to say, Uchiha Madara was really curious.

He didn't say much more, and as Lin Xuan hoped, he directly used Wood Release to create a massive wooden ship on the spot, then boarded it with Lin Xuan and entered the sea with the current!

"Hey, wait!"

At this point, Kizaru finally woke up and shouted subconsciously.

Unfortunately, Lin Xuan and Uchiha Madara ignored him, and their ship was quickly carried away from the Sabaody Archipelago by the wind and waves.

Watching Lin Xuan and the others go, Kizaru’s expression was extremely solemn; where was his usual slacker attitude?

The other Marines also woke up one after another.

A Marine Colonel asked cautiously: "Admiral Borsalino, should we pursue?"

"No need!"

Kizaru waved his hand, sighed, and said: "What's the point of catching up? To be humiliated again? Better to report the news back to Headquarters immediately and start searching for survivors!"

"Yes!"

The other Marine officers could only obey helplessly and then split up to act.

Kizaru looked at the chaotic scene around him and then at the ship that was about to disappear from the sea, silently muttering to himself: The world is going to be in turmoil from now on!
