Chapter 161 The Golden Lion, Coming to His Death
ice.
As far as the eye could see, there was only an endless expanse of deathly white.
Thick, leaden-gray clouds hung low, almost blending into the distant, undulating glaciers and tundra.
The Land of Flowers - Frozen Continent.
In order to develop Ice Release, young Allen ventured into this remote ice field and nearly died.
If he hadn't awakened his Sharingan at the last moment and seen the Devil Fruit buried deep in the snow, he would definitely have died here.
……
With his current physical strength, the biting cold wind felt cool and pleasant to him.
That feeling came back...
Whenever Allen comes here, a strange sadness wells up in his mind.
The image of the white wolf lying on the glacier, gradually blending into the surrounding whiteness, came to mind.
……
Allen, who possesses cultivation systems from two different worlds, knows this.
Domineering aura, swordsmanship, and physical skills are common to most extraordinary worlds. Domineering aura is ultimately a combination of willpower and physical strength.
Only Devil Fruits possess a unique power that is exclusive to this world.
A superhuman series with boundless imagination, a test of imagination and wisdom.
The Natural type, which can be called the master of the rules, is the ticket to 'invincibility'.
The most basic and direct animal series touches upon the source of power, pursuing the ultimate meaning of life.
……
These correspond to the three most fundamental forces: imagination, nature, and oneself.
There is no absolute strongest, only the most suitable, the most thoroughly developed, and the most compatible with the user.
Even though Luffy's Gum-Gum Fruit awakened, which was heavily criticized, there were many people who ate the Gum-Gum Fruit before him who failed to awaken it.
Luffy was able to awaken because his actions aligned with the liberating will within his Devil Fruit.
Recounting his experiences, he liberated many countries along the way and freed his companions from the shackles of their hearts.
Ok……
They even liberated Impel Down along the way.
Perhaps... what most people dislike is not Luffy's awakening of his Devil Fruit, but rather the use of a "predestined Devil Fruit" to erase all the hardships Luffy has endured along the way.
To deny Luffy's dream is as if he were a tool set up to liberate the world.
……
……
Devil Fruits possess consciousness; at least the Zoan type has been proven to have the consciousness to seek out a host.
and so……
Allen walked through the snow, lost in thought.
Perhaps it wasn't me who found Luo Xue Bai Lang, but rather Luo Xue Bai Lang who found me?
Awakening requires a resonance between the consumer and the consciousness of the fruit.
What does the Snow White Wolf want?
Ancient species...
Long ago, there was no classification of Ancient Zoan and Mythical Zoan types; any Devil Fruit that was biological was considered a Zoan type.
The reason why ancient species appear is because this species has become extinct.
……
What does a non-existent race want?
And why did this fruit choose me?
Allen walked slowly through the snow, not knowing how long he had been walking.
……
Gradually, the ends of his hair were dyed an icy blue.
The icy blue faded, becoming almost pure white.
The white color gradually spreads.
As her long, pure white hair broke free of its clasp and fluttered in the cold wind, Allen suddenly turned around.
……
A golden figure suspended in mid-air was reflected in the icy blue beast eyes.
Golden Lion!!
-
-
"You've come here to die?"
Allen's voice was very soft, as if he were asking Shiki if he had eaten.
Clang——
The golden lion landed, and the two famous swords that served as its feet touched the snow.
"Hehehehehe!!"
The laughter shook the wind and snow.
"I only found out later..."
"Uchiha Allen, let's get to know each other again!"
"Born in the Land of Western Flowers, the Yakuza—Shiki!!"
……
Before he became famous across the sea as the Golden Lion, this was Shiki's name.
With a cold, emotionless gaze, Allen looked at the Golden Lion with complete calm.
After a long pause, he asked again.
"So... have you thought it through?"
……
The golden lion grinned: "You're sending people to look for me, but I'm also looking for you..."
"Since Roger, no one has earned my such respect!"
"I desperately want to know... that power you awakened when you fell into the sea!"
Clang—
The cleaving strike, capable of splitting mountains and seas, grazed Allen and slashed into the glacier behind him.
The massive iceberg collapsed with a deafening roar!
"Feed..."
The golden lion's eyes were bloodshot, and a ferocious rage crept onto its face.
"You brat! Are you trying to say I don't even have the ability to make you take this seriously?!"
"Let me see those eyes!!"
"asshole!!!"
……
……
The Golden Lion was indeed there to die.
Such heroes would never make any excuses to cover up their defeats.
He believed that he had lost the battle, not because of natural phenomena, but because he had truly lost to Allen.
Defeated in a one-on-one duel...
In the Golden Lion's view, there are only two choices.
Death or submission.
Having reached the summit of the ocean, the golden lion can no longer submit to anyone.
So... death is the only option.
……
His strength was greatly reduced after his battle with Roger, and he cut off his legs in order to escape Impel Down.
The Golden Lion knew very well that he could no longer fulfill his ambitions.
He could only keep living by the thought of "taking revenge on the world".
Non-severe pain.
This is tantamount to forcing a former sprint champion to accept the reality that his legs are now crippled.
……
He was disappointed that he hadn't died at Allen's hands back then.
What a wonderful thing it is to witness the birth of a strong person of the new era with one's own life!
In the end, I survived by sheer luck...
Absolutely shameful!!
Thank goodness...that's great!
That kid isn't like Roger; he didn't die!
Let's continue the legacy of World War I!
……
The golden lion clenched his fists, gritting his teeth: "Answer me..."
"I am the Golden Lion!!"
"Don't look at me with that nonchalant gaze!! Don't stay silent, you bastard!!!"
……
"No... I'm sorry."
Allen slowly lifted his coat, revealing his upper body, which could be described as a work of art, with strands of red and white silk threads clinging to it.
"I'm not very bright; my silence is because I'm thinking about how to thank you."
……
"Those eyes are called the Mangekyou Sharingan. They awakened after my battle with you and are one of my strongest trump cards."
"But that power has limitations, and frequent use will come at a great cost."
"I originally intended to use it on you first, and I've waited for many years."
……
Allen got into a fighting stance.
It wasn't that hair grew out, but rather that his skin instantly transformed, covered with thick, beautiful, frosty white wolf hair.
"As a sign of respect, I will use another trump card, which will definitely not disappoint you."
"I also hope..."
"Can you help me awaken again?"
"At your cost!!"
……
roar----
Its body let out a low growl, and with a roar like an iceberg breaking apart, it rapidly expanded until it became a frost-white behemoth nearly a hundred meters tall!
The icy blue eyes on the wolf's head, like two frozen moons, have been gazing at the boundless glacier since time immemorial!
The wind and snow howled—
After thousands of years, this frozen land once again welcomed its only king.
Snowflake White Wolf!!
……
Looking at the enormous creature that filled their entire field of vision, a terrifying sense of oppression washed over them.
The golden lion laughed wildly, its golden hair standing on end like a real lion's mane.
Swoosh—
He pulled the ship's rudder, which was deeply embedded in his brain, and blood gushed out!
roar!!!!!
The wind and snow gathered into a lion's head larger than a giant wolf, its roar shaking the heavens!
……
Beasts clashed on the icy plains in the most primal and brutal battle!
