Chapter 409 Death of Sabo
But no matter how cruel a person is, there is still a glimmer of warmth in his heart, and that is the light of humanity.
For example, from the initial expectation of everything in this world, to the current Arthur who has seen through and experienced everything and is cruel enough to kill even his own bloodline, cruel enough to kill anyone without hesitation, there are still a few people and things that he cares about.
"Who will come to save you next? Garp, who was crushed by my other personality with a punch? Or Dragon, who was pierced through the head by my sword?"
When he was less than twenty meters away from the crowd, Arthur suddenly spoke to them with a knife in hand.
His tone was very calm, without the grief that was in his roar.
The ice dragon merged with his contract, and the ice dragon gave him its power and then disappeared.
No...it should be said that her name is not Ice Dragon.
In the memory she passed on to Arthur through the shared contract...
She had another name, known only to Arthur.
The cold air spread around Arthur, and the sea water melted by the flames froze again. The sea frozen by the ice magic became more transparent and shining.
"So you still have some sanity even in this state. What was that roar about back pain just now? Where's that red-skinned devil?"
Of all the Straw Hat Pirates, only Ace could stand steadily and confront Arthur.
The others were either seriously injured by the impact of the Domineering Haki or were already dying, hanging on with only one breath left.
Compared to the tragic situation of the World Government and the Great Alliance, they seem rather out of place.
"What does it have to do with you, Roger's son?" Arthur pointed the knife in his hand, which was almost as tall as him, at Ace.
"In a sense, I am your benefactor. I helped you kill the murderer and organization that killed your mother Lu Jiu, but somehow you became my enemy."
Hearing his mother, Ace took a fighting stance, his whole body ablaze with flames.
"You know my mother..."
Under Ace's gaze, a familiar figure soon appeared behind Arthur.
That person was Robin. She released the Flower-Flower Fruit on her back, which transformed into huge wings, and made the flowers bloom beautifully around Arthur.
"She carried you for twenty months, and finally died of exhaustion! Not only did she not let you cherish her great maternal love, she also promised you something... If a man succumbs to power, he is not worthy of being a man!"
Boom! As soon as he finished speaking, Arthur once again exerted his terrifying domineering pressure on all members of the Straw Hat Pirates.
Compared to before, it was only after he obtained all the power of the ice dragon that he realized how terrifying the power accumulated by the frost demon for thousands of years was.
At this moment, Arthur's domineering energy was almost inexhaustible, flowing endlessly in his body.
Puff puff…
The pressure of the domineering color came again, accurately avoiding Robin behind Arthur.
However, three explosions were heard from the wreckage of the flaming lion not far away.
Usopp, Chopper, and Nami were hit hard by Arthur's second use of Conqueror's Haki, and their bodies exploded into blood mist that dissipated in the air.
"No!" Luffy burst into tears when he sensed that his companion's breath had completely disappeared. Even the tears flowing from his eyes were blood red.
"Pleasant to the ear." Arthur glanced at Luffy who was in extreme pain, and the corner of the hideous devil's mouth grinned.
He turned around with the knife in his hand, and with his devil-armored hands, he handed Roger's knife to her.
"Go and cut off your childish dreams, Robin. People always say that I am cold-hearted and heartless, and you should be one of the people who can best prove the opposite of this view."
Robin's expression changed suddenly when he heard Arthur's words, and his hand trembled uncontrollably as he took the knife.
Although he has not experienced many storms with Kusanagi and his crew, there was only one incident in Alabasta.
But she had already regarded this group of active pirates, who were different from other pirates, as her friends.
Robin was somewhat reluctant to kill them with his own hands since they were now unable to resist Arthur's power.
"Arthur, I read a prophecy in Elbaf. It said that the person who loses everything will destroy the world, and the sun will unite with the world to seal the darkness!"
"Kozuki Toki..." Arthur listened to Robin's words and repeated her name in his heart.
Back then, more than twenty years ago, Kozuki Toki had told him at the stern of the Ol Jaxson that his future would be nothing but darkness and blood.
Arthur could probably guess that the person who would lose everything in Elbaf's prophecy was himself.
As for the sun, no one else but Luffy can unite the world.
But now, even Nika is just a mayfly ant.
Robin held the knife, his body trembling as he approached the Straw Hat Pirates.
"Arthur..."
"You weren't this scared when you failed me. Let me help you."
Arthur moved his mind, and several soul chains quickly extended from the void and wrapped around Robin's limbs, dragging her forward forcefully and speeding up her pace.
"This world is sick... I have to fix it. Everything has to start over again, including life! I don't mind waiting for thousands of years. I already have an immortal lifespan... Thousands of years will pass in the blink of an eye."
He inherited everything from the Frost Demon, not just power, because it was given to him by the Ice Dragon.
He didn't have the side effect of becoming a demon, feeding on emotions, human feelings, and killing to survive.
He can release the power of extreme ice without limit, and become immortal!
Half human, half demon!
You can switch between forms at will, just like a suit of armor that you can put on and take off at any time.
Robin walked past Ace, who had no strength to struggle anymore, and saw Ace lying on the ground with a dazed look in his eyes, barely breathing.
But... the chain pulled her past Ace and brought her right in front of Sabo, forcing her to raise the knife high.
"I'm sorry, Sabo, I shouldn't have involved you in my fate..."
Sabo, whose body was about to explode, couldn't utter a word. He closed his eyes and stared at Robin in front of him, whose limbs were tied with transparent chains.
He accepted his fate calmly, and even if he tried his best to resist, he could not defeat Arthur.
"Listen... Ace... Luffy! The days at Mount Korpo were the happiest days of my life!"
Phew…
Arthur controlled the chains and raised his knife, letting Robin stab Sabo's head with the knife. He would not show mercy to these people.
"Sabo...! Ah...!" Seeing this, Luffy shouted in grief and blood burst out of his mouth.
"Sabo, damn it..." Ace watched his brother die in front of his own eyes and was completely powerless to do anything. Blood flowed from his mouth and he was unable to move.
However, at this moment, Sanji suddenly awakened some physical strength and rushed towards Arthur with his domineering power.
"Oh! You damn thing! What do you think of life as!?"
His legs burned with deep blue high-temperature flames, and combined with his own speed, strength, and armed color domineering, he rushed towards Arthur and kicked.
The flames on his feet were no longer the Devil's Wind Kicks, but the Demon God's Wind Kicks.
