Chapter 421 The last time

Most of the people gathered here are pirates with extraordinary strength, and a group of legends worthy of being written into history books, including the famous and few remaining vice admirals of the navy.

Here, the navy can only be passive and vigilant, and dare not make any rash moves or make any small moves.

No one started a fight. They all gathered together to see who had done such an outrageous and impossible thing.

"Rayleigh, I beg you to find a solution quickly. I am so worried about Arthur's health!"

In the center of the ruins of G.12, Rayleigh listened to Hancock's plea and just looked at Arthur calmly. He quickly changed his serious expression and laughed heartily.

"As expected of you! You can actually do such a terrible thing, Arthur!"

That look made Rayleigh put aside some of his prejudices against Arthur, such as the fact that he killed Xia Qi, and at this moment he had only endless praise for him.

Because, the merging of the world is not a bad thing.

On such a continent, big countries will only grow bigger, and small countries will be crushed by the overwhelming military force of big countries, and thus be completely destroyed and ruled.

The world would probably become one country, and there would be fewer wars.

"You old pervert! Is this the time to laugh?!"

Bang! Jabba saw Rayleigh laughing regardless of the situation and punched him in the stomach to interrupt his laughter.

"Ahem...! What are you doing, third place!" Rayleigh held his stomach uncomfortably, and suddenly glared at Jabba angrily.

"What did you say? You said I was third? You have always been third and I am second! I am second only to Roger!"

When Jabba was told by Rayleigh that he was in third place, his competitive spirit instantly got the better of him and he started arguing with him in front of Arthur.

"I'm the deputy captain! So you should be ranked third, isn't that natural?! No! Even now you are third!" Rayleigh was dissatisfied and argued with Jabba face to face.

"Have you forgotten who was the one who fought against dozens of pirate ships alone when the captain was injured?" Jabba talked about the past and suddenly praised with a sly smile.

"Of course I took care of them all by myself and saved Roger, but you were swallowed up by the tsunami and disappeared, hahahaha!"

"Bastard!" Rayleigh was so angry when he heard this that he wanted to draw his sword and chop Jabba.

He didn't expect that decades later, he would use this incident to mock himself.

"You are still like this..." Arthur suddenly said at this time, "No matter what mistakes your companions make, you will only see the good side and praise them."

"Uh!" Jabba and Rayleigh heard Arthur's voice and looked at him in shock.

"Of course! Unless he is the one who made the mistake! Then I can use it as an excuse to severely humiliate him, hahahaha!"

"Don't imitate me!"

"Don't imitate me!"

The two of them seemed to ignore everyone around them and started arguing loudly in a state of oblivion.

It seemed as if that kind of humiliation was more satisfying than stabbing the other person.

Kaido, Big Mom, Dor, Crocodile, Doflamingo, as well as the famous navy and pirates who were watching around, also stopped arguing at this dramatic scene.

Arthur turned his wandering gaze away from Rayleigh and Jabba, raised his hands and observed his current physical condition.

Every cell and every bit of flesh and blood in my body felt an indescribable burning sensation.

Instead of recovering as quickly as before, it was gradually withering and dying.

"Well, this is fine!" Arthur muttered to himself, realizing the bad condition of his body. The cells were unable to heal themselves, but died one by one, with no sign of reversal.

It was an unintentional act out of desperation, and he never thought about the consequences, just like his journey through time which was full of suffering.

I originally wanted to merge the world into one continent, and then use my absolute strength to rule the entire world.

Now it seems impossible to achieve, and I can feel my life slipping away.

Arthur shifted his gaze from Yana to Hancock, who looked worried.

I found her kneeling with her hands clasped on her chest, praying for something.

"Honey…"

Then, Arthur looked around at everything. This world that he had changed by force did not seem to be a good one.

In other words, he was trapped in violence and hatred almost every day, with too much revenge and killing, and there were many things he could not let go of at all.

If he were to live a different way, he would be able to live happily in this world anyway.

"Rayleigh, Mr. Jabba, I have one last favor to ask of you."

Arthur reached out and grabbed the first generation Demon Cutter in his daughter's right hand, then slowly stood up.

"What's the last thing? It makes me sad!" Hancock felt a pain in her heart when she heard this.

Looking at Arthur's entire upper body skin, which looked like ash flowing in the cracks of the earth like magma, I felt an indescribable sadness in my heart.

"According to your recovery ability..." Rayleigh stopped arguing with Jabba and watched Arthur walk step by step towards the crowd in front. He seemed to understand something suddenly and was stunned on the spot.

"It's so bitter..." Arthur stopped as he passed Rayleigh.

"Let me end this in my own way, Mr. Rayleigh. My spiritual world is shattered and I have been living like a psychopath. Perhaps this moment is the real me..."

"Do you want to end it all?" Jabba suddenly asked, and then activated his Observation Haki to sense Arthur's condition. His expression was as stunned as Rayleigh's.

"Arthur! Your body...!"

"..." Redfield observed Arthur's inner thoughts with a shocked expression, and said to Barrett beside him,

"He's going to die, Barrett. His body is exhausted and can't hold on any longer!"

"What did you say, Red Earl!?" Barrett looked at him in shock, then yelled in anger.

"What a joke!!! You want to quit after you've made the world into this mess, you bastard!"

The powerful men around him stared at Arthur with serious expressions.

Upon hearing the news, everyone was shocked, everyone found it unbelievable, and fell into deep thought.

Who wouldn't be surprised that this man, who had single-handedly reached the pinnacle of the world and was able to rival the entire world, was going to die like a withered leaf?

The next moment, under the gaze of everyone, Arthur calmed his rapid breathing and his swaying body, and pointed the knife in his right hand at everyone.

"Are you guys going to come together, or one by one?!"

"You are really crazy, Arthur." Kaido, carrying the mace, smiled and said to Arthur first.

"Haha, but this is you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd remained silent. Mihawk, who had been looking down on his prey like an eagle in the sky, suddenly drew out his sword and stood up, saying seriously,

"You said you want to die? Then this is undoubtedly my last chance to challenge you. If I let this opportunity go, my sword will never be able to challenge you again."

Hawkeye was the first to step forward for his long-unfulfilled dream.

The world calls him "the greatest swordsman in the world", but little do they know how badly he was defeated by the man in front of them.

He has never been a person who takes advantage of others in distress. This is the last chance to prove himself. Even if Arthur is not in good condition at the moment, he must seize it.

"Arthur!" Hancock wanted to get up and run to Arthur, but was stopped by Rayleigh beside her. She struggled,

"Let me go, Rayleigh! I want to stay with him even if I die!"

"Just stay still, Hancock! Time is running out for Arthur's body."

Seeing Hawkeye approaching step by step, Arthur looked up at the sky.

"After you died, I was already beyond help... Maybe all of this was seen by Kozuki Toki, with the power of the Time Devil Fruit... If I could go back to the past... hehe... hehe..."

"I'm going to do it!" Hawkeye ignored everyone's eyes, grabbed the hilt of the knife with both hands and rushed towards Arthur.

"Deputy Captain." Arthur stopped sighing and glanced at Rayleigh behind him with his knife.

"Please help me make some space, please...you guys."

The eye contact between the men instantly made Rayleigh understand Arthur's feelings at the moment.

He looked around. Since everyone chose to watch and did not make any extra responses, it was time to give Arthur a huge space to fight.

"Jabba!" Rayleigh looked at Jabba standing aside.

"Oh!"

The two of them understood and released their domineering aura to the surroundings at the same time, exerting their full deterrent power and speaking at the same time,

"Since everyone is unwilling to express their opinions, then everyone agrees to challenge Arthur one by one. If anyone dares to make unnecessary moves, don't blame us for being rude."

The king's left and right arms used their domineering aura to their fullest, causing some of the weak-willed deputies under the command of the strong men to faint on the spot.

Only the ruins of G.12 were left as a buffer zone for the battle.

Boom! The collision between the first generation of Onikiri and Ye also sounded at this moment.

Due to the impact and explosion, everyone saw Hawkeye's body slightly unbalanced, and he looked at Arthur in front of him with an expression of disbelief.

"Even in this state... he still has this kind of energy left?" Hawkeye was shocked beyond words. Seeing that Arthur did not take the opportunity to finish him off, he quickly steadied himself and thought,

"If it was during my heyday, wouldn't that mean I had no victories at all?"

The huge psychological gap made Hawkeye very uncomfortable, but thinking that this was the last chance to challenge Arthur, he put everything aside.

Arthur, on the other hand, stood straight and steady, no longer roaring like a beast as he did in previous battles.

Instead, he was very quiet, strolling slowly while holding the knife and staring at Hawkeye like a true swordsman.
