Chapter 700 Joyboy!? (2 in 1)

Chapter 700 Joyboy!? (Two in One)

Suddenly, a giant appeared in the small garden and knocked Yuichi Tsugumi away with just one palm. The terrifying domineering aura and oppressive feeling emanating from his body were something Yuichi Tsugumi had never seen before.

Under the enemy's attack, Ji Guoyuanyi's figure turned into a stream of light and slammed into the wall of the small garden. A loud roar was heard in the small garden, the dust on the ceiling fell down, and the sturdy underground palace also shook violently.

The giant's creepy laughter echoed in the small garden.

At the entrance of the corridor not far away, Im, wearing the Sky-High Crown, just glanced at the knocked-away Yoriichi Tsugikoku, and then turned around, and his figure disappeared into the corridor again.

There are more than a dozen corridors connected to the small garden, and the terrain is complicated. If you are not very familiar with the underground palace, there is no way to find the right way.

Although Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's observation Haki is strong enough, if Im is traveling in such a underground palace, it will not be an easy task even for Tsugakuni Yoshiichi to find him, not to mention that there is a "roadblock" with terrifying strength in the small garden at this time.

"Click——"

A clear sound was heard from the direction of the courtyard wall. Ji Guoyuan, whose body was stuck in the wall, was shaken and directly broke away from the wall and fell back to the ground.

The broken bricks and stones of the wall slid to the ground as Ji Guoyuan fell, making a rustling sound.

Yunyi slowly raised his head, feeling the slight pain coming from his body, and a solemn look appeared on his face.

The enemy in front of him is very strong. After all these years, this is the first time that Tsugumi Yoshiichi has seen such a powerful enemy.

The opponent not only possessed an extremely powerful aura, but his physical strength also surpassed that of Tsugakuin Yoshiichi. Judging from his appearance, Tsugakuin Yoshiichi was not a man with particularly strong muscles or a particularly large body, but the power contained in this body of Tsugakuin Yoshiichi was beyond the imagination of others.

Not to mention ordinary humans, even ordinary giants have less power than Jiguoyuan.

However, this huge giant in front of him was able to easily win the wrestling with Tsugikuni Yoriichi, which shows how powerful he is.

There are very few strong people in this world who can put Tsugakuin Yoshiichi at a disadvantage in a head-on battle. Since Tsugakuin Yoshiichi returned from the Holy Spirit Island, he has not encountered any such strong people.

This was the first time that Yoshiichi Tsugumi encountered such a powerful enemy.

"A powerful and unknown person."

"But the aura is a little strange."

Although it was dark, Jikuni Yuanyi could still see the face of the person who came clearly. He had a square face with sharp edges and thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was not handsome, but he was well-proportioned. The man had a simple smile on his face and looked harmless.

If you just look at the facial features, I'm afraid no one would think that such a person is threatening.

However, the terrifying aura emanating from the other party made even Yoshiichi Tsugakuni behave cautiously when facing him.

The aura emanating from the other person gave Jiguo Yuanyi a very strange feeling. Obviously, he felt a strong vitality in the other person's body, but the temperament revealed by the other person gave people a feeling of death.

These two completely different sides appeared on the same person, giving Yuichiro Tsugakuin a strong sense of disharmony.

Living or dead?

With the blessing of the transparent world, Tsugumi Yoshiichi could clearly see the man's blood flowing in his body, but the other's tiger eyes revealed a sense of death, and Yoshiichi could not feel any vitality from the other's eyes.

Perhaps it was not the man's body that died, but his spirit.

"Puppet"

"A person this strong is just a puppet of Im."

Tsugikuni Yoriichi looked at the enemy in front of him. After a while, Yoriichi murmured softly, as if he had seen through the nature of the man in front of him.

Just as Jiguo Yuanyi had expected, the giant blocking his way had actually lost his independent consciousness long ago. At this moment, he was just an empty shell, and this powerful body had become a puppet driven by Im.

However, what Tsugumi Yoshiichi didn't know was that if the identity of the person in front of him were to be revealed to the world, how big a storm it would cause in the world.

Joy Boy
This was the name the giant had during his lifetime.

Creator, savior, people have put too many labels on Joyboy. As the founder of a huge kingdom 800 years ago, Joyboy also carries too many legends.

Until now, no one knows how the huge kingdom of that time collapsed, and even few people in the world know that a huge kingdom once existed 800 years ago.

The name Joyboy is only circulated in the mythological stories passed down orally by some ancient survivors, or recorded in the ancient books of a remote kingdom.

The World Government tried every means to erase the name Joy Boy. Everyone thought that the World Government was afraid that Joy Boy would reappear in this world, but in fact, even the real Joy Boy himself has now become a puppet controlled by the World Government!
Joey Boy's solid body was covered with wounds. One could imagine how many fierce battles this man had experienced in his life.

And those brutal battles were transformed into battle memories engraved in Joyboy's body. Although his body was controlled by Im, it was his fighting instinct that truly drove this body.

What Tsugumi Yuichiro has to face now is not just a puppet.

He and Joyboy are having a conversation across time and space.

The only difference is that this time the conversation was conducted with weapons and fists.

Seeing that Ji Guoyuan reappeared in front of him unharmed, the smile on Joey Boy's somewhat dull face became even wider.

At this moment, there was a hint of brightness in his originally lifeless eyes, but this brightness was fleeting and disappeared from his eyes in a moment.

"!!!"

However, this subtle change did not escape the eyes of Yoshikazu Tsugakuni. He was absolutely certain that the puppet in front of him had developed so-called autonomous consciousness not long ago.

Although the time was very short, Yunyi was confident that he would not be wrong.

"This guy."

At this moment, Ji Guoyuan felt his heart sink, and he had some guesses about the identity of the man in front of him. The domineering aura was exactly the same as the aura released by the huge straw hat just now. Now that he thought about it, the huge straw hat was very suitable for the man in front of him, and there was no sense of disobedience at all.

The shape of that huge straw hat is exactly the same as the one Luffy owns, so it's hard to say if this is just a coincidence.

If Ji Guoyuan's guess is correct, the guy in front of him should be the legendary "Joey Boy" himself. Considering the information Ji Guoyuan has, it is natural to have such a guess.

As for why Joyboy appeared in the holy land.
After fighting with the corpses of those powerful men who once roamed the sea, Tsugaru Yoshiichirō was no longer surprised by such things.

What exactly the World Government has done during the 800 years that they have controlled the world, probably only they themselves know.

They were able to spend hundreds of years collecting strong people from all over the world to make combat puppets. It was not surprising that the mythical character Joyboy would become a collection of the World Government.

Yoshiichi Tsugikuni knew that there must be a close relationship between Joy Boy and the twenty kings who founded the World Government.

And Im was also one of the 20 kings, but in the past few hundred years, the other 20 kings have been buried by time. Only Im has survived to the present and has become the person who truly controls the world government and stands on the throne.

The fall of the great kingdom back then was probably closely related to these 20 kings.

It is even possible that these so-called kings are traitors to the great kingdom.

However, for Yoshiichi Tsugakuni, there is no meaning in pursuing history. He is exploring the buried history not because he loves history or admires Joy Boy. He understands that divided history only to find ways to deal with Im.

Those historical events will not bring anything to people today. The future path still needs to be traversed by people today. Ji Guoyuan has realized this a long time ago.

"This guy is probably still conscious."

"I don't know how Yimu nurtured this guy's body to keep him in this form until now."

"Im probably doesn't know that this guy is still conscious. If he knew, then the relationship between Im and Joey Boy would be very delicate."

"I'm confused. My guess is wrong. The guy in front of me is not Joey Boy."

At this time, Tsugakuni Yoshiichi had too many doubts in his mind, especially when a gleam of wisdom flashed in the eyes of the puppet in front of him, Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's doubts deepened again.

The World Government is not as simple as he imagined. Similarly, Joyboy is probably not as simple as he imagined.

"Hehe, but this kind of thing is no longer important to me."

“No matter whether you still have consciousness in your mind or not, you have already blocked my way. All I have to do is to clear a path for you!”

As soon as he thought of this, Jiguo Yuanyi's aura suddenly changed.

That kind of indomitable sharpness reappeared in Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's body, but facing the change in Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's momentum at this time, the giant not far away remained unmoved, and his facial expression and eyes did not change in the slightest.

"boom!!!"

The giant took a big step and rushed towards Ji Guoyuanyi, and fell directly in the direction where Ji Guoyuanyi was standing.

The terrifying domineering aura has been integrated into the giant's every move. Even a simple blow brings a huge sense of oppression to Yoshiichi Tsugikuni.

Yunyi knew that there was a huge gap between his own strength and that of his opponent, a gap that even the Conqueror's Haki could not make up for.

Yoshiichirō's domineering aura was only comparable to that of the giant in front of him, but the absolute power gap between the two directly led to Yoshiichirō Tsugikuni being unable to withstand a single blow from the opponent.

However, the difference in power does not mean that Yoshiichi Tsugakuni has no way to deal with the enemy in front of him.

In a battle, victory is never determined by whoever is stronger.

Tsugaru Yoshiichi has always been able to defeat the opponent with his strength, but Tsugaru Yoshiichi has never been the kind of person who only relies on strength to resolve a fight.

Or perhaps the power of the giant in front of him was not strong enough to subdue Yoshiichi Tsugumi's Jukai!
Yoriichi's observation Haki had already seen through all the actions of the giant. The moment the other party fell with his fists clasped together, Yoriichi Tsugikuni's figure had already quickly left the place.

"boom!!!"

The moment the two fists struck, the figure of Tsugakuni Yoshiichi appeared on the opponent's forearm, and then rushed straight up along the giant's arm. In just a blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Joyboy.

"!!!"

A hint of surprise flashed across his originally dull eyes, and the next moment, Ji Guoyuan swung the long knife in his hand directly towards Joey Boy's face.

However, unexpectedly, Joyboy's huge body moved very nimbly. When Tsugakuin Yoshiichi slashed with his sword, Joyboy bent his body backwards and nimbly dodged Tsugakuin Yoshiichi's attack.

Just as Tsugakuni Yoshiichi had a firm control over his opponent's every move, Joyboy also had complete control over Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's actions. Except that Yoshiichi's speed was slightly beyond his expectations, Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's subsequent actions were completely within Joyboy's predictions.

While bending down to avoid, Joyboy's fist swept directly towards Tsugakuin Yoshiichi in mid-air. At the same time as he dodged, Joyboy had already launched a counterattack against Tsugakuin Yoshiichi.

It can be seen that the combat experience accumulated in Joey Boy's body is extremely rich, and the transition between offense and defense is extremely smooth. His delicacy is not at all like those strong men who like to "throw flying bricks with great force".

He doesn't look like the top powerhouse trained under this world system at all.

Yoshiichi Tsugakuni in mid-air noticed Joyboy's attack. Although he had no support, as a pair of golden fire wings grew behind Yoshiichi Tsugakuni, his figure quickly disappeared in mid-air, making Joyboy's attack fail.

Ji Guoyuan spread his wings behind him and in an instant he had circled behind Joyboy, then aimed at Joyboy's lower back and directly slashed at him.

Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's slash came suddenly and covered a very large area. Joyboy's huge body became a weakness at this moment, making it impossible for him to dodge Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's attack.

The slash landed heavily on Joyboy's lower back. When the two men's domineering aura collided, Joyboy's body suddenly shook upwards, and then was directly hit by the slash and hit the ceiling, making a loud bang.

A strong smell of blood also spread in the small garden.
