Chapter 275: Send Away with One Knife

Everyone looked over and saw Lex gradually condensing from the void, and they immediately gasped! ~

Leon Lex!

King of the New World!!

Why is he here?

Without waiting for Lex to speak, Gallien, who had captured Starkston alive, came up impatiently, carrying Starkston in his arms, with a respectful look and reserved movements:

"Lord Lex, I am Galien, one of the vice presidents of the Hunter Association. I was ordered by Lord Lex's special envoy to capture this old dog and present him to you!"

After saying that, Galien carried Starkston, who was bound by seastone, and came to Lex.

Lex raised his eyebrows slightly, and then asked calmly:

"Oh? Which envoy?"

Gallien replied immediately:

"It's Lord Tenyaksha!"

Lex immediately understood that it was Doflamingo.

In the past few years, under the cultivation of Stussy and Roy, Doflamingo has taken over the underground world step by step and participated in many plans. Although he is young, the title of Ten Yasha has resounded throughout the underground world, and is in no way inferior to another genius of this era-CP0 Enel.

After a little thought, Lex roughly guessed the cause of the incident.

Perhaps with the expansion of the business chain plan, the forces under Lex have gradually infiltrated the paradise, and the Hunter Association headed by Starkston is undoubtedly a powerful force.

In terms of intelligence, manpower, and strong people, they are all very good. Instead of taking the trouble to create a few more forces, it is better to directly incorporate the Hunter Association.

That's why Roy or Gutt sent Doflamingo to attack and kill Starkston and recruit the Hunter Association.

Lex didn't comment.

The next moment, Lex glanced at the entire audience, looking at the pale-faced Starkston and the nervous and excited Galien people, and spoke indifferently:

"In that case, I won't stay any longer. You can contact Dover on your own."

"As you command! Lord Lex."

Galien looked respectful and was extremely excited.

As long as they get Lex's approval, they can join the world's top power and reach the pinnacle of life! ~

Lex smiled, but looked at Starkston again:

"Senior, you have been in Qinghai for a hundred years but have fallen to this point. How do you feel?"

Starkston finally raised his head and looked at Lex:

"The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. It has always been like this."

As for his betrayal, the octogenarian Starkston was more indifferent than anyone else. He thought it was nothing more than the motive of interests and conspiracy. He had lived in Qinghai for a hundred years and had seen enough of it.

The only regret is that at the end of his life, he fell into the hands of a villain like Galien, which was really not worthy of his magnificent life.

Lex had his 'Observation and Mind Reading' on the whole time, and he knew exactly what Galien, the others, and Starkston were thinking.

Now that Lex is standing on the top of Qinghai, he naturally has some understanding and appreciation for heroes like Starkston. Starkston has had a brilliant life, and it should not end like this, dying from the betrayal of his subordinates.

So Lex turned to look at Galien, who looked reserved.

"Galion, right?"

Gallien nodded quickly.

Lex nodded slightly and continued:

"Galion, you've done a great job. You're very ambitious and capable. You're a rare talent."

"I am unworthy of this! I rely entirely on the majesty of Lord Lex."

Galien's face was filled with fear, but he was actually very excited inside. He actually received Lex's praise!

This is an honor that many people in the world dream of but cannot get! ~

Just based on Lex's words, Galien felt that it was no longer a dream for him to enter a new world, show his talents, marry a beautiful and rich woman, and reach the peak of his life!

Lex was speechless. He just said something casually, but Galien had so much on his mind. However, he still maintained a gentle and kind smile on his face and continued:

"Uh-haha, Galien, although you did a good job, there is still another thing I would like to ask of you and your brothers."

As he spoke, Lex glanced at the people behind Galien who were equally excited.

"Master Lex, please give me your orders. I will do whatever it takes!"

"It's not that troublesome. I'll just borrow your lives for a while."

As soon as he finished speaking, before the people in Galien could react, azure starlight instantly spread from Lex's body!

In an instant——

Everyone in the venue was replaced by Lex's space.

Galien looked at Lex in confusion, and even the brothers from the Hunter Association behind him looked at Lex in confusion.

Just as Galien was about to ask Lex, he suddenly found that he couldn't open his mouth, couldn't speak, and his body was completely restrained!

Lex looked at Starkston, whose expression remained unchanged, and said slowly:

"Senior Starkston, I consider myself one of the strongest men of this era. You are also a strong man. I cannot bear to see you end like this. As the centenary president of the Hunter Association, shouldn't you leave the most profound farewell to this sea?"

Starkston's old body suddenly shook, he raised his drooping eyelids and looked deeply at Lex:

"Lex, ...thank you."

Lex smiled casually, and the next moment, the space fruit was activated, and everyone in the different space except Starkston and Lex died, including Galien!

Lex carried their bodies and Starkston, who was facing death calmly, and quickly rushed to Marinford! ~

After a while——

Lex was already standing above Marinford!

Starkston stood beside Lex, looking around at the clouds in the sky, and looking down, he saw the towering Navy Headquarters!

"Is this the cemetery you chose for me?"

Starkston sighed with emotion for his whole life, and without waiting for Lex to answer, he continued:

"Lex, I am over a hundred years old and have been in charge of the Qinghai Hunter Association for more than eighty years. Rocks, Sky, Roger and others are just juniors. A few years ago, you went out to sea and killed my only disciple, Apophis. Since then, I knew that this sea has welcomed an unprecedented king. I saw in you a spirit far beyond Rocks! Now it seems that you have far surpassed the achievements of all the heroes in the past! You are a natural king, standing above all heroes! I was definitely not wrong about you. The so-called 800-year world government will never be your opponent! The Hunter Association that I have painstakingly managed all my life is worth merging under your command!"

Starkston spoke with great vigor, not at all like a dying man.

Lex smiled lightly without caring:

"What are your last wishes, Senior?"

“Hahahahaha! My last wish - please put an end to this life full of merits and demerits!”

"it is good."

Immediately—

Rex's domineering aura burst out instantly!

The scarlet black thunder exploded in the sky above the super-large island - Marinford, covering an area of ​​nearly a thousand miles!

歘——

Lex pulled out the two supreme swords that had not been unsheathed at his waist for a long time.

Wan Qing Yukong!

Budu Yuhun!

He brought the free and easy Starxton, stepped down from the air, and slowly landed on the huge square of Marinford!

As soon as Rex released his domineering color, several important figures of the Marine Headquarters came out together. Cyborg Sora, Sengoku, Zephyr, Garp, Tsuru, Gion and others happened to be there.

"Today, I, Leon Lex, will send off the centennial president of the Qinghai Hunter Association, Senior Starkston, for the last time!"

"K. Possessed God. Mirror Flower and Water Moon!!"

The deep blue cross slash that was condensed to the extreme, mixed with the double-sword sword energy that was not inferior to the Golden Lion, and wrapped in the armed color of the divine domain and the king-level domineering color, poured out, dragging the dark blue starlight, and slashed towards Starkston who was laughing freely!

Cyborg Sora, Sengoku, Garp and the others stared in disbelief at this slash that was beyond their imagination. It went straight through Starkston, and immediately, he turned into ashes without leaving any trace!

The power of the cross slash did not diminish in the slightest as it continued to fly towards the Grand Line outside Marinford Square. Wherever it passed, everything disappeared!

The air, dust, and seawater all disappeared, the sky and the earth lost their color, and only this indisputable——

A god-level slash!

For a moment——

The sea outside the huge square of Marinford was split apart, the sea water flowed back, the seabed was exposed, the air currents surged, and the sea and sky lost their color!

The entire grand route is disconnected!

Cyborg Sora's pupils shrank sharply as he stared blankly at this scene that was beyond his understanding, unable to calm the shock in his heart.

No one spoke first. Instead, Gion, who looked indifferent, slowly walked to Lex's side, took Lex's arm, held it against his chest, and asked softly:

"Honey, why do you look a little unhappy?"

After years of tacit understanding in life, Gion always understands Lex better than anyone else. Just by a feeling, Gion knows that Lex is feeling a little melancholy at this moment.

Lex shook his head slightly:

"I just feel that human power is limited. Even for someone like Starkston who has been in Qinghai for a hundred years, there will be a moment when the curtain falls. It's not that I'm unhappy."

"Oh."

Gion said "oh" but complained in his heart, "Fool, you found pure gold, time is just a number, but Gion definitely cannot tell anyone about the pure gold in front of the high-ranking navy officers."

Lex turned around, looked at Cyborg Sora and the others, and smiled slightly:

"Marshal Kong, and everyone else, I am sorry to bother you today. I just wanted to choose a good place for Senior Starston to end his life, so I came to Marinford. I didn't mean to bother you."

Kong, Sengoku and the others were complaining in their hearts, Lex is being polite, you've killed people, you've been pretending, and now you're pretending to say a few polite words, what are you pretending for!

Moreover, even if you didn't mean to disturb us, but you came to cause trouble for Marinford on purpose, what can we do?

We can't defeat you, and your position in the government is higher than ours. What can we do?

Even though he was complaining in his heart, Sora was still able to distinguish the importance of things. He knew that Rex was not someone the navy could afford to offend, so he was very polite:

"Haha, Prime Minister Lex, please forgive me for making fun of you. However, next time something like this happens, please notify me in advance."

Lex nodded and glanced at the navy members.

Immediately—

"Then I won't bother you any more. Goodbye."

Sora tried to persuade him to stay politely. After all, Lex was the Prime Minister and considered a high-ranking official.

"Why don't you take a break at headquarters, Prime Minister Lex?"

"Thank you, Marshal Kong, but you are all busy with military affairs, so I won't bother you anymore."

The words fell——

A blue light flashed around Lex and he disappeared from the spot. Also disappearing was Gion, who had been holding Lex's arm throughout the whole process.

No one was surprised. Whenever Gion was not in Marinford or on a mission, he was always with Lex. Everyone understood this, since he was a family man after all.

In a different space——

Lex left with Gion.

"Where are we going, honey?"

"Let's go back to the West Sea. By the way, you don't have any important military affairs in Marinford, right?"

"You dragged me here by force. No matter what mission there is, it's not as important as you. Besides, there's no important mission in the first place."

"That's good."

"By the way, what fruit is that in your hand?"

"This, Starkston's Aurora Fruit, is worth recycling. It might be useful in making human weapons in the future."

When Lex killed Starston, he also recovered the powerful natural fruit - Aurora Fruit!

An existence that is no less powerful than the Sparkle-Spark Fruit!
