Chapter 291

"How could I doubt your strength! You are definitely the strongest!"

"Then do as I say!" Locke was incomparably domineering, allowing no refusal; even his calm tone carried an undeniable, arrogant Haki.

"I, I understand." Even Lei Ounai was hit squarely by the impact on her spirit.

Afterward.

She barely managed to regain her senses.

'Pfft~'

She secretly stuck out her pink little tongue.

'You~ are the lord, after all!'

The words were hidden in her heart and not spoken, but from the cunning look in her eyes, it was easy to see that this yellow little cat with a very deep sense of self-will clearly wouldn't listen so easily.

Before they could continue saying anything else.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

An endless stream of dark shadows began to spring and jump from within the mirrors, launching a fierce ambush against Locke and his group in the center, as if they didn't care about their lives.

The ambush had been discovered.

Having already aroused vigilance and knowing that continuing to hide was useless.

They simply turned from dark to light, starting a desperate frontal assault, charging at them like moths to a flame.

"Careful!"

"Those guys are a bit strange!"

Najenda frowned, her voice full of an 'older sister' aura.

The Three Imperial Gods guarded her before she commanded them.

Whoosh!

A beam of white light shot out, hitting a dark shadow; incandescent flames soared into the air, but before they could burn, the dark shadow vanished, dissipating into nothingness, as if an illusion had shattered.

Without an object to attach to, the Amaterasu flames naturally couldn't burn and were forced to annihilate.

The one who had just attacked.

Was clearly Najenda's Teigu, 'Gao Tianyuan: Three Imperial Gods'!

Symbolizing the power of the three great gods.

The Amaterasu flames, which should have burned until the end after contacting an object, until the essence was annihilated, had actually been dodged by the method of shattering the illusion; it was truly a strange power.

"Those dark shadows..."

"They all seem to be just illusions?"

Najenda frowned, her suspicious voice echoing in the room.

"Not just that!"

"If they were illusions, Lei Ounai wouldn't have been injured at all!"

Esdeath's cold voice came.

It hit the core of the matter instantly.

Clang!

Frost emerged in her hand, transforming into an icy blade, which she slashed forward at high speed, crossing the room like an afterimage; the mirrors could only catch a glimpse of a stretched light.

The cold blade slashed.

The dark shadow instantly turned into two halves; under the erosion of the cold air, faint frost could be seen on the cut surface, strands of cold air radiating outward, freezing their tendency to shatter.

"Sure enough, not an illusion!"

Esdeath's affirmative voice fell, still as chilling as ice shards.

However!

Before Esdeath could examine it carefully.

Swish!

The remaining cold air dissipated, and the dark shadow figure instantly vanished, like a bubble bursting, leaving not even a trace.

"They got away."

Esdeath frowned.

Her outstretched hand grabbed at empty air, a hint of coldness in her eyes.

"It's fine!"

"Hiding their heads and showing their tails, they'll show themselves sooner or later!"

Locke waved his hand.

He wasn't scared at all by these ghostly dark shadows; on the contrary, he was calm and composed as usual.

"Those glasses and mirrors must be some kind of special items. Destroying them would just cause more trouble; there's no need to waste energy on such things."

Just now!

The aftermath of his full-force Dragon Fist had hit the mirror, but there was no reaction at all, not even a tiny scratch.

From that moment on.

Locke understood that these things that looked like mirrors were definitely not as simple as they appeared on the surface.

If they were just mirrors.

Under the aftermath of his power, they would have long since shattered, becoming glass mirror shards.

And the fact that these things could withstand the impact and remain unscathed represented the word 'sturdy'.

At least!

They could withstand the limit of a quasi-Admiral, or even Emperor-level power impact.

Although it wasn't to say.

Locke certainly had no way to break them.

It was just unnecessary!

Locke didn't have a Teigu known for destruction in his hands right now. Even if Esdeath or Najenda could break them with brute force at any cost, the energy consumed would be too much.

·· ·······Seeking flowers 0 ······

And... it was completely unnecessary...

Rather than wasting time in such a meaningless place, it was better to hurry up and explore further down.

Locke could see this much clearly.

These ghostly dark shadows seemed incredibly strange, but their actual strength was nothing more than that; they just looked strange. Even Lei Ounai, with some precautions, could easily solve a whole bunch of them.

Not to mention Najenda and Esdeath, whose strength was infinitely close to Emperor-level.

Seemingly strange.

Actually useless.

As long as they were a little careful, it was almost impossible for them to cause any harm to themselves.

This was a fact that anyone with eyes could easily see; there was simply nothing to question or doubt.

After figuring this out.

The so-called mirror space instantly became insignificant.

So what if it was strange?

As long as he sped up and walked out of this space, and entered deeper, wouldn't everything be easily solved?

Locke really didn't believe that this weird mirror space could extend indefinitely. This was the world of the Pirate King; at most, it was some composite material using high-tech means. It was impossible for mysterious fantasy means like a maze to appear, so what did he have to fear!

As long as this was a key location, he would definitely find something unusual inside.

If it really were an endless mirror, he could just turn back and leave, who was afraid of whom!

Just these weakling-like dark shadows in the mirror.

Locke really wasn't afraid at all.

"Let's go!"

"Inside!"

"I want to see what kind of messy things are hidden inside..."

"To be guarded by such strange things, the secret treasure inside shouldn't be too bad, right!"

Locke looked up with anticipation.

Gazing at the deep front of the mirror hall, his eyes carried a fierce light of determination.
