Chapter 338

'Consider yourself lucky!'

Dark light flickered in Shiki's eyes.

——

"Phew..."

"Finally survived."

An elite officer of the Rocks Pirates sat on the ground, letting out a long sigh of relief.

Locke had a vague impression of him; Babarbu, a fruit user, roughly at the quasi-Admiral level, counted as a decent elite mob.

Even for him.

Previously, within God Valley, the continuous chaotic battles and the sudden shifts in the situation had been truly terrifying. Moreover, being deep in the enemy's base, he hadn't dared to relax for a moment. Now, they had finally managed to escape.

"Survived?"

"Not so fast!"

"Those guys won't be willing to let us leave just like that."

Snake's sinister voice drifted into his ear.

Babarbu, having been snapped at, was just about to flare up in anger when he saw Locke standing next to Snake, and like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, he instantly deflated.

Are you kidding?

The guy who even blinded Captain Rocks—how could he, a man who had been scared out of his wits, dare to make a move?

"Heh—"

Locke chuckled, not paying the slightest attention to this minor interlude.

"Prepare for battle..."

"This isn't the Red Line anymore."

There was the previous time.

On the Red Line, they had used the Float-Float Fruit to escape easily; the World Government could not possibly be unprepared. Various cannons, long since readied, bombarded them directly.

Behind them!

There were the furious sea, land, and air forces.

Shoot them down!

As long as they shot them down before they completely ascended, they wouldn't be able to run!

"Die for me!!"

Terrifying thunder surged into the sky, striking toward the floating island that had just begun to ascend.

"Thunder Surge! Billions of Thunder Shocks!"

The deep purple lightning was almost condensing into liquid, like terrifying thunder plasma in a thunderstorm.

"Rumble-Rumble Fruit?"

Although the techniques were different, the essence of the power was identical.

Only then did Locke discover that among the World Government's Admiral-level powerhouses, there was actually one who possessed the Rumble-Rumble Fruit.

That's just ridiculous!

The terrifying thunder obliterated everything, even causing the floating island to sway precariously.

No wonder the Golden Lion, with his arrogant personality, would agree to join forces with Bai Hu Zi.

Chaotic battle!

A total chaotic battle!

Amidst the surging lightning, a powerful magnetic field interfered with the floating ascent.

The method of floating away was delayed.

It was directly delayed by him, turning into an intense duel for the empty space.

Every trick in the book was used.

In a situation involving life and death, the Rocks Pirates side fought with everything they had. No one dared to hold back or slack off at such a time; that wasn't called preserving strength, it was purely an idiot looking for death.

"Giant Soldier: Divine Cut Eighteen!"

"Elbaf Spear: Weikoku!!"

"Lion's Majesty: Palace Earth Scroll!"

"Rigid Fist: Rising Dragon!"

"Cloud-Breaking Slaughter!"

"..."

"Murakumogiri: Tooth Piercing the Heavens!"

One terrifying offensive after another bloomed in their hands; when their lives were threatened, they all brought out their absolute best.

A full-scale Admiral-level chaotic battle erupted.

Locke finally saw the terrifying destructive power of this group.

Following Bai Hu Zi's furious strike.

Absolute power descended here.

The teetering God Valley was shattered by the tearing force of the chaotic battle. It wasn't just the edges slowly sinking; under the intense combat, it had only just erupted before completely disintegrating, collapsing into countless fragments.

Taking advantage of the collapsing sky and earth.

While the World Government was too busy to care, Locke directly had Esdeath detonate a cold current.

Utilizing the moment of obstruction from the ice crystal explosion.

The floating island instantly shot into the sky. ===== CHAPTER 340 =====
