Chapter 673: Rocks, Who Fears Not Death

To the side, Kaido, Xia Luote Linlin, and the Golden Lion—these three great pirates of immense influence—all simultaneously fixed their gazes upon Lin Xuan.

Instantly, the atmosphere in the arena grew grave.

At this moment, Lin Xuan suddenly tapped his forehead, shook his head with a smile, and said, "Look at my memory; I almost forgot about you all. It's easy to forget unimportant things when one gets older!"

"Kwahahaha, President Lin, you really know how to joke. You're only in your twenties; if you call yourself old, how are we old fogies supposed to live?" Whitebeard couldn't help but burst into laughter.

The others couldn't help but laugh as well.

Rocks, however, furrowed his brows and asked again in a deep voice, "President Lin, I am asking how you intend to dispose of us. Could you perhaps enlighten us?"

Lin Xuan couldn't help but smile, looking at him playfully as he said, "As the defeated, how do you think it would be appropriate for me to dispose of you?"

"Heh, do you intend to be like that bunch of trash in the World Government and subdue us for your own use?" Rocks sneered.

"Mamama, I don't want to be under anyone's jurisdiction, and I certainly don't want to die. I only want to eat delicious food; I want to go back to Whole Cake Island right now to keep eating delicious desserts!" Big Mom, Xia Luote Linlin, also spoke up.

"I'm used to being free; I don't want to be under any constraints!" said Golden Lion Shiki.

Finally, Kaido spoke as well, saying, "Or are you planning to just kill us? Of course, if you can kill me, I might even thank you!"

Whether it was Rocks or the trio of Kaido, despite being on the defeated side and now effectively prisoners, their attitudes remained extremely tough.

Hearing their words, Lin Xuan couldn't help but sneer.

His gaze swept over them and finally landed on Kaido, asking in a low voice, "You want to die?"

Kaido's pupils shrank violently. He felt a sense of lethal danger, his heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate, and he felt a chill run down his back.

Being stared at by Lin Xuan gave him the sudden feeling that if he said the wrong thing, he might truly die in the next second!

The reason he committed suicide was actually because he knew he couldn't die.

Yet, at this moment, he felt the scent of death.

"I, this... I was just joking!"

Kaido managed to force these words out, his expression becoming uglier than if he were crying.

Big Mom and the Golden Lion still wanted to remain tough, but after being glanced at by Lin Xuan, they couldn't help but feel a sense of trepidation.

Originally, they had intended to force Lin Xuan to release them; if he didn't agree, they would just fight him. Perhaps there was hope of escaping this place—perhaps.

But now, a single look from Lin Xuan had made them feel hollow inside, to the point where they didn't even dare to meet his eyes.

Compared to them, Rocks appeared much calmer. He looked Lin Xuan in the eye with composure and said, "Actually, I really want to cross blades with you. How about this: I will take one move from you. If I do not die, then you release us, along with everyone you have captured, and let us leave. How about that?"

As soon as Rocks' words came out, the expressions of many on the scene changed.

"Holy crap, has Rocks gone mad? He actually wants to fight President Lin?"

"What is this situation? Does he not know how terrifying President Lin is?"

"What is Rocks planning, daring to say such a thing?"

The others began to whisper, truly shocked by Rocks' words.

Rocks, however, remained calm, appearing extremely confident.

... 0 Seeking flowers.........

Lin Xuan looked at him with interest, then sneered, saying, "It seems you are very confident that you can take one move from me. Who gave you the courage to say such a thing?"

"What does President Lin think?" Rocks asked with a smile.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and whispered a reminder to Lin Xuan, "President, beware of a trap. I suspect this guy is cooking up something nasty!"

Lin Xuan waved his hand, completely unbothered, and looked at Rocks with a smile: "Heh, do you think that by mastering the core of the Pluton battleship, you can block my attack?"

..... 0

Hearing his words, Rocks' pupils shrank violently, and his heart immediately grew uneasy.

At this moment, Lin Xuan continued, "Since that is the case, I accept your condition!"

As his voice fell, energy spheres rapidly condensed in his hands, instantly erupting with brilliant light while simultaneously emitting an extremely dangerous aura.

"If you can take this move, what harm is there in me letting you go?" Lin Xuan sneered.

As he spoke, the energy sphere in his hand grew larger, soon reaching over ten meters in height, before rapidly condensing again, finally turning into a highly dense small sphere rotating in his hand.

At this moment, Rocks did not feel much energy fluctuation from the sphere in Lin Xuan's hand, nor did he feel any sense of danger, yet his heart grew uneasy.

"Wait a moment, I..."

Just as Rocks wanted to say something, the energy sphere in Lin Xuan's hand had already blasted toward him.

Flying Thunder God Jutsu, activate!

In the blink of an eye, both the energy sphere and Rocks' figure vanished.

"Boom!"

The next second, a deafening sound came from the void above, and many nearby saw a blinding light flash across the high sky. ===== CHAPTER 675 =====
