Chapter 578 Doubts, the man who came back from the dead! (Two in one)

Flying directly to the Holy Land in broad daylight? !

Tsugikoku Yoshiichi is not that stupid.

Tsugikoku Yoshiichi, who is close to the Red Earth Continent, did not choose to fly directly to the Holy Land, but chose to open a cave on the wall of the Red Earth Continent first, intending to rest here for a short time and wait for dark before climbing to the Holy Land.

Although the transparent world can allow Tsugikoku Yoshiichi to hide his breath and prevent the enemy's observation Haki from detecting his existence, the human eye can still capture his figure.

It is too easy for a stranger like him to appear in the Holy Land for no reason to be discovered.

In order to explore the Holy Land, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi also needs to make some preparations in advance. After burning a cave with golden flames, Yoshiichi stepped into it, and then took out a black cloak from the package and put it on.

The black cloak directly covered Tsugikoku Yoshiichi's figure, and the big hood could also cover Tsugikoku Yoshiichi's head and hair.

After a little movement to adapt to his cloak, Yoshiichi's face also showed a faint smile.

The waiting time was extremely long.

It was not until the bright moon that Tsugaku Yuichi slowly opened his eyes and came out of the state of resting his eyes.

He reached out and took the cane beside him, and quickly came to the cave entrance. With a light jump, Yuichi's body almost touched the rock wall of the Red Earth Continent and flew straight up.

Your figure turned into a golden stream of light and soared into the sky. When it was less than a kilometer away from the top of the Red Earth Continent, the wings behind him suddenly disappeared without a trace.

After soaring upwards for dozens of meters under the action of inertia, Yuichi, who was about to fall, stepped lightly on the rock wall and leaped upward with the power.

With just a few times of borrowing power, Tsugaku Yuichi's figure had already appeared at the top of the Red Earth Continent.

The Red Earth Continent is very large, with dense vegetation on the land. The so-called holy land is just a residential area of ​​​​the Celestial Dragons opened up on the Red Earth Continent.

The place where Jiguo Yuanyi climbed up was only 10,000 meters away from the resort. It was a dense forest with lush ancient trees that blocked the moonlight.

He took out the permanent record pointer he carried with him, and after a simple identification of the direction, his body turned into a residual shadow and moved rapidly in the dense jungle.

The Celestial Dragons had no way to control the entire Red Earth Continent. The only place they could control was the Holy Land. There was no way to monitor the areas outside the Holy Land.

For the strong in this world, climbing to the top of the Red Earth Continent was not a difficult thing.

Therefore, since the establishment of the World Government, the defense force in the Holy Land has never been relaxed.

Why do the admirals of the navy need to guard the Navy Headquarters all year round?

In fact, there is also this reason, that is, to be able to support the Holy Land in time when the Celestial Dragons on the Holy Land are in danger.

"Swoosh!!"

A light sound came from the dense forest, and Jiguo Yuanyi's figure quickly jumped onto a tall tree, stood on the branch and looked towards the Holy Land in the distance.

He was in the northwest of the holy land of Marinjoa. Because his sight was blocked by the towering buildings, he could not see the entire holy land.

However, he could easily find the target he wanted to explore from his location.

Pangu City.

This magnificent building was so prominent even in the holy land. When Ji Guoyuan broke into the holy land, he once destroyed this building that symbolized the supreme power of the Celestial Dragons. However, after all these years, the Celestial Dragons had already completed the reconstruction.

Moreover, compared with the previous Pangu City, the current Pangu City is more magnificent and huge. Under the moonlight, the white walls of Pangu City actually reflected a crystal light.

This Pangu City is like a giant castle in the Middle Ages. Although the architectural style is somewhat different, the defense facilities are extremely similar.

Pangu City is surrounded by a circle of trenches, and there is a sentry tower on each of the four corners. According to Jiguo Yuichi's perception, there are nearly 20 guards on duty in each sentry tower. These people have a strong aura. If they were placed on the sea, they would probably be "big shots" with a bounty of over 10 million.

The trench of the city is seven or eight meters wide. There are only two suspension bridges in the north and south that can enter and exit Pangu City. There are also guards on both sides of the suspension bridges. The strict vigilance makes Jiguo Yuichi touch his chin.

It's a little different

I don't know if it's because Jiguo Yuichi once broke into the holy land and destroyed Pangu City. Now the vigilance against Pangu City in the holy land has become more strict.

However

If it's just this level, there is no way to defend against a strong man like Jiguo Yuichi.

"I didn't sense the breath of Saint Izambaron V. Nasujuro. If nothing unexpected happened, I killed this guy completely."

"Let's go to the holy land this time to see if we can catch another one of the Five Elders."

"Try to get in touch with Im again. If we can see through the essence of her ability, then the purpose of this trip can be considered to be fully achieved."

Tsugikoku Yuichi's purpose of going to the holy land this time is also very clear. The main purpose is to find out the details of the enemy.

Especially Im, he wants to find out what Im's ability is.

If you can kill these people without the help of pure gold, that would be the best; even if you fail, you still need to understand the opponent's abilities so that you can prepare for the future.

After sensing the locations of some of the more powerful auras in Pangu City, Jiguo Yuanyi's figure had already fallen from the tree, and then quickly flashed towards the holy land.

Ji Guoyuan, who was wearing a black cloak and was like a shadowy elf, stepped directly into the holy land as his figure flickered, and then quickly approached Pangu City.

The Tianlong town in the distance was full of lights and feasting, and there was no scene of darkness at all.

None of the guards noticed that Jiguo Yuanyi, the god of death, had already come to their holy land under the cover of night.

"call out!"

The nearly 10m wide trench was like flat ground in front of Jiguoyuanyi. In the blink of an eye, Jiguoyuanyi approached the courtyard wall of Pangu City silently. He tapped his finger lightly on the wall, and the thick white wall unexpectedly appeared. It melted rapidly, and soon a large hole was created for one person to walk through. Yuanyi also took advantage of the situation and entered the room.

In Pangu City, there were a lot of guards responsible for night watch patrols, but Ji Guoyuanyi was able to easily avoid groups of patrols with his excellent knowledge and domineering power. Moreover, he moved so fast that even the surveillance phone bugs all over Pangu City were unable to capture Jiguo Yuanyi.

There is nothing unusual at all from the surveillance screen.

Have a smooth journey!

Pangu City Underground Garden.

Im sitting quietly in the pavilion, tilting his head slightly to admire the night view outside the window.

The moon is shining brightly, and the bright moonlight shines on the warm garden, which is beautiful.

Suddenly, Yimu, who was sitting on the stone bench, suddenly turned sideways and wanted to leave the stone bench.

But her speed was still half a beat slower after all. While she was trying to dodge, a wooden staff quietly pierced Im's body. The blood-stained wooden staff pierced Im's chest. The severe pain caused Im to groan involuntarily.

"Actually avoided it?!"

A low and hoarse voice came from behind Im. The enemy's tone was cold, and Im couldn't feel any emotion from the other person's words.

"Who are you?!"

A stream of blood flowed out of Im's mouth after his chest was pierced. He turned his head hard, trying to see the face of the enemy behind him clearly. As soon as he finished speaking, Im felt that his chest was empty, and the wooden staff that had pierced his body had been taken away by someone. , a sharp slash flew towards his neck.

Faced with the enemy's attack, Im refused to dodge. He suddenly turned around and saw a tall figure holding a wooden staff and covered in a black robe. The other person's face was covered by a white Noh mask. , can’t see the other person’s face clearly at all.

The next second, a sharp slash flew past Im's neck, landed among the flowers in the garden and disappeared without a trace.

Just a face-to-face meeting, Im's body and head were separated. The beautiful head still retained the calm and indifferent expression before Im was beheaded. The head fell on the floor of the small pavilion with a soft sound.

At this time, the man in black robe who suddenly appeared in the underground garden of Pangu City was Jiguo Yuanyi who sneaked into the Holy Land.

"Gululu——"

Im's head rolled down to Jiguo Yuanyi's feet, but strangely, no blood spattered from the wounds of the decapitated Im.

"Plop!"

As Yi Mu's body fell to the ground, Jiguo Yuanyi could keenly feel that the other person's aura suddenly disappeared in his own domineering perception.

"Dead?!"

He gently raised his foot and stepped on Im's head. Ji Guoyuan lowered his head and looked into the eyes on the head.

Im's hawk-like eyes did not lose their luster after being decapitated. On the contrary, the moment their eyes met, Jiguo Enichi's heart sank, and the wooden staff in his hand quickly moved towards Im. The head was stabbed away.

Eyes are the windows to the soul.

As soon as Ji Guoyuan found out, Yi Mu's consciousness had not disappeared!

"Click!"

The skull was smashed and the wooden staff penetrated, but strangely, there was still no sight of blood spraying.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrr-"

Under Ji Guoyuan's slightly solemn gaze, Yi Mu's head suddenly liquefied, as if it had become water, melted away, seeped into the ground, and then disappeared without a trace.

This scene also appeared with Im's body. When her head melted, her body also disappeared. In just a few seconds, Im's figure was no longer in the pavilion.

Ji Guoyuan grabbed the wooden stick and knocked it lightly on the floor, making two soft "ta-da" sounds. Then his eyes fell on the bottom of the wooden stick in his hand, and the bright red section on the tip of the wooden stick. It did not disappear, and the faint smell of blood filled the air.

"Did the attack just now work?!"

"Since when did you escape?"

"After being pierced through the body?"

There were various confusions in Jiguo Enichi's mind, but he did not get confused by the strange sight in front of him, but calmly analyzed the situation at hand.

The reason why the attack to kill Im just now was aimed at the heart was mainly because he was afraid that the other party would react and dodge. The attack and killing process was just as Yuanyi predicted. At the moment when his heart was about to be pierced, Im noticed Jiguo Yuanyi's offensive and avoided the critical point in time.

If Tsukuni Enichi's goal was to choose the opponent's head, this attack would probably have failed.

So when did the other party replace the fake body or use some special ability?

I think it was at the moment when Ji Guoyuan pulled away the wooden staff and struck out!

Even in such a situation, he was able to escape from his own hands. Ji Guoyuan couldn't help but take a high look at Yim's ability.

"Wow——"

In this closed underground garden, a breeze suddenly blew, and outside the pavilion, the wind blew the grass low, making soft sounds.

I don't know if it was because of Enichi Jiguo's misunderstanding, but he actually saw the ground in the garden gently surging like ocean waves.

Frowning slightly, Yuan calmed down and looked towards the garden outside the pavilion. He found that the scene he saw before was not his imagination. The ground there was really rolling and surging gently like ocean waves.

"Um!?"

Suddenly, Ji Guoyuan felt a familiar aura suddenly arise under his feet. Yuanyi didn't have any time to think about it at all. He just flashed and quickly flew away from the pavilion, hovering not far away. In mid-air.

"boom!!!!"

And the moment Ji Guoyuan left, the original pavilion collapsed.

The ground of the garden was like a whirlpool on the sea. It actually swallowed up the entire pavilion. In just a blink of an eye, it disappeared without a trace. There was no trace of the pavilion completely.

And just after the pavilion disappeared, the status in the garden gradually returned to calm.

Jiguo Enichi, who could not see the reality, did not fall back to the ground after the earth returned to calm. Under his perception, the ground suddenly rose up on the grass path, and when the soil fell, Im wearing the crown reappeared. In Jiguo Enichi's sight.

A pair of eagle eyes glanced directly at Ji Guoyuan, their eyes full of coldness and murderous intent.

"I don't know what kind of devil fruit ability it is, maybe it's natural type, I can't tell"

"Or maybe Im's state is similar to mine, and his body has become the incarnation of the devil fruit."

"The slash just now has no effect on her, I'm afraid."

Jiguo Enichi and Yimu looked at each other from a distance. Although Jiguo Enichi used various methods to hide his identity, once the battle started, it became impossible for Yuanichi to continue to hide his identity. thing.

When Jiguo Enichi's pair of golden wings appeared in Im's sight, the strong murderous intent in the opponent's eyes turned into shock.

The appearance of the pair of wings was actually not unfamiliar to Im. She had seen it before on the Holy Land.

In these hundred years, there were not many episodes in Im's ordinary life, and there were very few enemies who could appear in front of her.

The one that remains most vivid in her memory is of course Jiguo Enichi who made a big fuss in the Holy Land back then.

Almost. The Holy Land was almost destroyed by Ji Guoyuan.

At this time, in Im's eyes, the pair of golden wings carried behind the black-robed man completely overlapped with the appearance of Ji Guoyuan when he used his ability.

"you"

"Did you get that Devil Fruit from Enichi Tsukuni?!!"
