Chapter 336
Unless the other party could kill him instantly, but that was impossible.
He, Sasji, was no ordinary person either.
The morale of the Jianghu forces declined at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The encirclement that was about to break through the execution platform just now was also beaten back.
Watching the hope of rescuing Ace disappear, Wang Luffy, who was lying on the ground, finally couldn't hold it in anymore.
"I beg you Ivan, I beg you!"
He made the request humbly again, but received a strict refusal.
"I cannot risk your life, you have done enough!"
Ivan of course knew what he wanted.
His Sunflower Manual could forcibly stimulate the cells in his body, allowing him to return to his peak state.
This was a move used before. But the price of using it once was 10 years of life.
Not to mention whether Luffy could play a decisive role after becoming strong.
As the son of an old friend, he absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen.
If Ace can't be saved, then he can't be saved.
Anyway, he was not Long's son.
He wasn't familiar with Wang Roger; he only wanted Wang Luffy to live.
"I beg you, I beg you..."
Luffy was still pleading continuously, but his voice was becoming weaker and weaker.
Watching Whitebeard about to fall, the hope in his heart was truly about to be shattered.
In fact, he himself knew very well that standing up might not have any effect. But he just couldn't stand by and watch.
Even if he died on the road of charging, it was better than lying here.
Facing the consistent request of his old friend's son, Ivan also couldn't hold back.
To be honest, he really admired the other party's quality of being affectionate and righteous, but unfortunately, he also had his own stance.
He knew that if it were his old friend, he would definitely support his son doing this. But his stance was that he didn't want his old friend to have no descendants.
After many requests without result, Wang Luffy also gritted his teeth.
"Ivan, if I can't go save Ace here, it will be my lifelong regret."
"I cannot accept such a result, and I won't live alone either!"
"Just let me go, even if I die on the road of charging!"
Ivan suddenly felt his scalp tingle, because he knew this kid could really do such a thing; if he didn't let him go now, it wasn't impossible for this kid to commit suicide afterward.
Thinking for a while, he finally had no choice.
"Wang Long, oh Wang Long, what kind of ancestor is your family!"
Ivan complained helplessly, but his eyes were full of admiration. Worthy of being that man's son.
He didn't hesitate anymore, his fingernails instantly elongated and directly pierced into Luffy's body.
Luffy's eyes instantly turned white; the pain involved was self-evident.
But in just a brief moment, his spirit recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It can only be said that this Sunflower Manual is indeed powerful, to have such a secret method. But everyone didn't envy the price, after all, it was too high.
【Hey, I have a question, why not give Whitebeard a shot?】
【Exactly, let Whitebeard directly recover to his peak, I want to see what the effect is】
【Isn't that nonsense? Because the author won't allow it!】
【Using it once reduces 10 years, are you brain-dead? Give Whitebeard a shot, his lifespan might directly become negative!】
【Then can't you gamble? What if Whitebeard still has 11 years of life?】
【Can't gamble, can't gamble, if something goes wrong, he'll just die!】
【Are you sure this old man looks like he can live for 10 years? Why don't I believe it?】
【Why can't he live for ten years? I feel this old man still looks healthy! I don't think it's that bad!】
【Forget it! Did you see those details before? Whitebeard is covered in needles! It's obvious he's already terminally ill!】
Ivan's parenting for this brother was definitely done well.
Although he was still complaining, he was still the first to pave the way for Wang Luffy.
His combat power was definitely not low, but on this Forbidden City battlefield, he was a bit stretched.
And he had also come from the Imperial Grand Dungeon, the pressure he endured was not small, and now he was also at the end of his rope.
And just when Wang Luffy was still frantically breaking through, a familiar figure suddenly appeared.
"Luffy, finally saw you again!"
"I really am the same as before, always a coward!"
"But this time I will absolutely not escape!"
"If I don't experience battle, I will never be able to grow, and never be able to become a Commander!"
That figure muttered to himself, and upon closer inspection, it was Koby, who had disappeared for a long time.
When seeing this figure, the audience was immediately amused.
【Not to talk about him, his clothes don't even seem dirty.】
【Yo yo yo, isn't this the King of Deserters? So pathetic after not seeing you for a few days!】
【Isn't this buddy trying to force some sentimentality? Delete this character!】
【Just wanted to be a deserter, was chased back by Sasji, then stayed in the corner of the battlefield, and now looking at Wang Luffy, he's forcing his way out to show his face, right? You're really something!】
【When it comes time for the post-battle report, he can totally say he fought the evil thief Wang Luffy, anyway Wang Luffy won't kill him, what a good strategy!】
【I say, are you being too malicious to him? When you first went to the battlefield, you probably wet your pants too!】
【I'm just watching a work, having fun, and I have to go to the battlefield? Besides, can this deserter really be redeemed? Then I won't watch it!】
Koby's reputation could be said to be falling in a straight line.
The barrage unanimously emphasized not to redeem him. With this time, it would be better to give the screen time to Smoker. Both are old characters who appeared from the beginning, and everyone likes this old smoker more.
Anyway, their positioning overlapped a bit.
Everyone was a bit impatient, and just when everyone thought there would be another round of sentimentality.
Koby, who had just made a grand wish, directly went up and took Wang Luffy's punch with his face.
That's right, it was with his face, it looked like he was hard-crashing into it.
At this moment, Wang Luffy had no time to chat with him.
He knocked him over with one punch and then went straight for the execution platform.
【This plot isn't right, shouldn't there be a small explosion of power next?】
【Exactly, usually after shouting this line, shouldn't the protagonist's halo be on?】
【Laughing to death, knocked over with one punch, annoying!】
【Wang Luffy: Knocking over your hot-blooded dream with one punch!】
【Maybe in Luffy's eyes, Koby is just playing house now, he has no time to mess around with him!】
【Comparing the two, Luffy looks much more mature!】
【This is why Luffy's protagonist halo isn't annoying, because his experiences along the way are witnessed by everyone, all growth is fought for with his own life, unlike Koby, who has no experience, and now they are just forcing screen time on him】
Everyone hit the nail on the head; the biggest reason for being annoying, besides the character design, might be too little screen time. The character is not very full.
Everyone has always been very satisfied with the characters under Lin Yi's pen, but the character in front of them seems to have a slight flaw.
But this doesn't affect his popularity; instead, it makes him more relatable to the audience, because having flaws makes him more like a person.
Luffy was still charging, but Whitebeard on the side was already having a hard time.
Don't look at Sasji's rough appearance. This person is the best at using schemes.
From the previous defection, it can be seen that he is not a reckless man.
And now it is the same.
Looking at the seriously injured Whitebeard, he didn't arrogantly and rashly move forward.
Anyone who can become a Commander knows one thing: there is something called a "flash of brilliance before death."
When a person is dying, at that moment, they can exert combat power that exceeds their usual limits.
So the more it gets to this point, the less you can be impatient.
Sasji, who was just tough, now hid in the back instead.
