Chapter 22 26 years ago, Valley of the Gods
Peng——
When the last guard fell in a pool of blood, Losolo truly panicked.
As the figure drew ever closer, like a demon, he retreated in terror.
He retreated step by step, then suddenly stumbled and almost fell over by the chains.
He turned his head with resentment, but then, as if he had found a lifeline, he suddenly bent down and grabbed the chain on the ground.
At the other end of the chain was a woman with a beautiful face, but whose eyes had been gouged out and were deeply sunken.
Losolo pulled her in front of him, not daring to point his pistol at Allen, but at the slave's forehead.
"Don't come any closer! If you come any closer, I'll kill her!!"
Allen paused in his steps.
……
Losolo, his face contorted in a maniacal laugh, pointed at the first slave on deck who had shielded him from the bullet and roared, "You didn't kill that slave earlier, huh? Heh, brat, don't think I didn't see through you!!"
"You can't bring yourself to do it!"
"This is how you lowly people are! Showing pity for your own kind, yet disrespecting the great Celestial Dragons, it seems..."
"As if this is some kind of 'strongman's demeanor'!!"
"That's ridiculous!!"
"How dare you! To so confuse the noble with the lowly!!"
"We are descendants of the Creator!"
"It's God!!!!"
……
The female slave's frail body trembled. She couldn't see, but she knew that it was dangerous. There was a terrifying figure who dared to assassinate Saint Losolo.
Her trembling body quickly calmed down.
He spoke in a hoarse voice, "This... gentleman..."
"May you... have great success in your military campaigns..."
Click!
She used all her strength to bite her tongue to pieces!
"You bastard!! You bastard!!! What are you doing!!!"
"You are my slave!! Who allowed you to die?! I will kill your entire family!!!"
She didn't want Allen to choose, so she made the choice herself.
Glug glug...
Blood gushed out and rushed back into her throat.
People who die from biting their tongues do not die from pain or bleeding, but from suffocation caused by a large amount of blood blocking the trachea.
It was more painful, longer, and required more determination than I had imagined.
call out--
A crystalline ice blade pierced through her brow.
A sudden, painless death.
……
Allen slowly lowered his hand, speaking expressionlessly.
"No one can reap without sowing."
"If you want something, you must be prepared to pay an equal price."
"A victory without sacrifice? Do you think I'm that kind of naive person?"
tread--
tread--
The footsteps sounded again, each step crushing Losolo's heart.
"Lossolo, you wouldn't understand."
"For some people, death is a relief."
"And for you... death is the punishment."
The blade hung high, its terrifying shadow pressing down on Losolo so much that he couldn't even breathe.
……
"No...don't..."
Losolo's glass dome was already broken, and his disheveled hair clung to his face, which was covered in cold sweat.
He curled up like a wild dog and kept backing away, stretching out his hands as if that would stop the gleaming butcher's knife.
"Don't kill me!!!"
"I am a Celestial Dragon!! I can give you wealth, power, anything you want!!"
Tears and snot streamed down his contorted face. Faced with the stark reality of death, his former arrogance vanished, leaving only naked fear.
"I am the heavens—"
A flash of light, and the air seemed to be cleaved open.
Before the blood could even splatter, Losolo's head had already rolled off, his eyes still filled with extreme terror.
Losolo is dead.
The final thought wasn't regret, but rather...
He really did it.
How dare he…
……
The Celestial Dragons, revered as gods by the world, have blood that is red, just like the Celestial Dragons.
Allen lifted his head and reached down to remove a white crystal chip stained with blood from the back of his neck.
This is... the proof of one's Celestial Dragon status.
Apply pressure with two fingers and crush it.
The panel started to pulsate...
So, destroying this is what completes the mission?

"Hunter of the Celestial Dragons - Shepard Losolo"
"Hunting Difficulty Rating - Hard"
"Task complete. Now, we will randomly select from the following options. Based on the task difficulty, three items can be selected this time."
The selected options can be drawn repeatedly, and there is no order of priority.
1. Collection of Fire Release Ninjutsu
2. Shaped puppets
3. Collection of Ninja World Genjutsu
4. Uchiha...
……
……
The extraction is completed in an instant.
Allen truly experienced what it means to have knowledge forcibly crammed into one's brain.
Even with his mental strength, the sheer volume of information caused him to stumble.
Soon, joy flashed in his eyes.
This……
That's incredibly lucky!

South China Sea, unknown waters.
In half a day, the place went from calm and peaceful to hellish, the sky was darkened by the explosion, and the waves surged with a roar.
The giant bear's imposing figure flashed through the smoke of battle, each slap of its paw generating a shockwave powerful enough to tear apart a warship.
The chrysanthemum-face mask on the man in the white suit was broken, revealing a plain, unremarkable middle-aged face.
Faced with the bear's offensive, he could not even fight back, and he had to do everything he could to protect himself.
Using Moonwalk to traverse the waves at high speed, half-dodging and half-retreating, he tried to escape the bear's attack range and return to Lord Losolo's side.
This idea is ridiculous in the face of a bear with the ability to teleport.
Peng! ! !
Chrysanthemum Face was hit head-on by a shockwave, and his entire body turned into a white light and disappeared between the sea and the sky.
He did it on purpose.
Suppressing the surging blood in his chest, he took out a black Den Den Mushi from his pocket.
We can't wait any longer...
Even if it means death, we must spread the word!
……
"Are there still Den Den Mushi?"
A deep voice sounded in his ear, and cold sweat poured down Chrysanthemum's face just as his hand touched the dial button...
Bang!
The bear paw-shaped shockwave blasted out instantly, knocking the black Den Den Mushi into the deep sea!
"asshole!!"
With their last hope shattered, Chrysanthemum Face angrily slammed a finger gun into Big Bear's chest, leaving a dent in his chest as he couldn't react in time.
This is also the first time he has hit the bear so far.
Big Bear was fine, but he coughed up a mouthful of turbid blood because of the injuries he had suppressed earlier.
It's a bit like a staged accident.
……
The gap in strength is too large.
The CP agent who prevented Allen from even considering resistance, and Lotharo's chief bodyguard, could only hold out for half a day against Kuma.
After a brief exchange, he fell from mid-air and struggled to his feet amidst the spray.
He is not a Devil Fruit user, so contact with seawater does not weaken him, and he can still use high-speed stomping techniques to stand on the sea.
Looking up at the giant bear flashing and approaching in mid-air, he spoke for the first time since the start of the battle.
"Bartholomew the Bear!!"
"Have you forgotten me?! Twenty-six years ago, wasn't it you who saved me in God Valley?!"
"Now you want to kill me?!"
In mid-air, the bear, which had been gathering its strength, suddenly stopped.
Twenty-six years ago...
Valley of the Gods...
That painful memory struck Big Bear once again.
