Chapter 203
The world was in a dead silence.
Only the terrifying sounds of buildings collapsing and the earth tearing apart echoed on the island, and the arrogant laughter of the pirates in the sky.
The screams and cries of civilians began to be heard from the auction house in the distance, and the flames began to spread in the city, and black smoke rose to the sky.
"This lunatic!!" Zhan Guo's eyes suddenly ooze bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth and said angrily.
The pirates present were stunned there with a wooden look, looking at the scene of grief in the distance of the island, and they couldn't believe their eyes.
"This... is not a power that humans can possess..."
"One knife almost tore half of the island apart."
"Too terrible..."
"This is the great pirate Shiki the Golden Lion, the man who stands at the top of the sea..."
At this moment, the pirates seemed to have lost their souls, standing there in panic and confusion.
Barrett was shocked at first, and then his eyes became more excited:
"Such a strong fighting power... Is this the opponent that Captain Roger recognizes? I must... I must fight him!!!"
His fists were clenched tightly.
Jin's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
"Hahaha, did you see that..."
Golden Lion seemed very satisfied with the power of his knife. He looked down at the pale faces below and laughed arrogantly:
"Only I, Golden Lion, am qualified to take this devil fruit. If you don't want to die, get out of here--"
Before he finished speaking, a tall figure suddenly jumped up from the wreckage of the box in mid-air.
Barrett's face changed drastically when he saw this, and he gritted his teeth:
"Darren! You bastard, he is my opponent!!"
The sudden change immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Darren!?"
Zhan Guo's pupils shrank.
He looked up at the Commodore who jumped up and shot towards Golden Lion, and an incredible thought came to his mind.
Could it be that... this stinky boy is really going to face death! ?
The pirates present also looked at the Commodore in disbelief.
What does he want to do! ?
Suicide? ?
With the terrifying strength that Golden Lion had just shown, who else could be his opponent besides Admiral Sengoku? ?
Everyone stared at this scene intently, holding their breath subconsciously.
"Come on, Golden Lion... Kill me, and the Momo Fruit will be yours!!"
Darren, who jumped into the sky, raised a wanton sneer at the corner of his mouth.
The wind blew his cheeks and hair, and the snow-white cloak fluttered behind him.
His eyes were fixed on the flying pirate in front of him, and a crazy and even hysterical light burst out of his eyes.
"Huh?"
Golden Lion raised his eyebrows.
This navy kid... is he looking for death! ?
He glanced at Darren who was rushing towards him.
The two looked at each other in the air.
A moment later,
A cruel smile suddenly appeared on Golden Lion's face.
"Hahahaha!! You have a good eye!!"
He saw some paranoid, crazy determination in the eyes of this navy kid.
The Golden Lion smelled a kind of...same breath!
"Interesting navy kid, don't blame me for being rude!"
The Golden Lion laughed grimly, and his momentum suddenly surged.
The famous sword in his hand was raised high, and his long golden hair danced wildly in the wind, and then...
Heavy slashing down!!
"Chopping waves!"
Swish!!
A huge gully was cut in the clouds in an instant, and the sea of clouds surged.
The devastating golden sword light, like a crescent moon cut down by a god from outer space, fell from top to bottom towards the navy commodore!!
Here it comes!!
In an instant, Darren felt an unprecedented pressure of death, which instantly occupied his mind.
Facing the golden sword light that seemed to be able to chop everything, Darren's pores all over his body were completely exploded at this moment.
Hualala...
He tried to stir up the power in his body, but the seastone shackles on his hands made a collision sound. The power of the seastone tightly imprisoned all the power.
Being in the sky, he could not use the power;
The weakening of the seastone greatly reduced his power;
The power of the devil fruit was like a pool of stagnant water, unable to be driven;
The complete crisis of death, like the dark clouds in the sky, completely enveloped Darren.
"Darren!!!" Zhan Guo roared with red eyes.
Everyone
His eyes widened.
However, Darren didn't care, and the smile on his face became more arrogant.
All the cells and muscles in his body were heating up, and every bone seemed to be torn apart and screaming loudly.
Under the influence of the crazy adrenaline, his pupils began to become blurred.
Darren shouted involuntarily, but no one could hear his roar.
Time seemed to be getting slower and slower at this moment.
The golden slash was getting closer and closer to his body.
The dazzling light almost drowned him.
Just when Darren was about to lose consciousness——
'Darren, you have to remember... the greatest feature of the observation Haki is to remain calm even in the face of the pressure of death. '
Zeffa's teachings suddenly rang in his mind.
Absolute... calmness!!
He suddenly opened his eyes wide!
"I... can't die!!"
In an instant——
It seemed that something was pierced deep in his body, and it exploded quickly.
The power that gushed out from that point quickly spread throughout the body.
At this moment, all the sounds around him faded away. Although he was on the verge of death, his brain was cold and clear.
Darren felt as if his soul and perception had been pulled out of his body, and he looked at the whole situation with a God-like vision.
His breathing became smoother, and countless lights and shadows, pictures, the nervous face of the Warring States, the horrified expressions of the navy, the grin of the Golden Lion, the anger of Barrett... all poured into his brain.
What kind of feeling was that?
Silence...
Yes, the silence that was only a hair's breadth away from fanaticism.
The supreme silence spread out in Darren's brain.
He... heard everything.
After practicing hard for more than half a year, the observation Haki that was only one step away from the final step... finally awakened! !
Then... the sword light fell!
Clang! !
The sound of some extremely hard object being chopped suddenly sounded.
In a split second,
The Commodore suddenly turned sideways without warning in the shocked and stunned eyes of everyone.
The sword light that was powerful enough to tear the island apart passed by his body and shot towards the land far away from the island, cutting off a small trading port and splashing the sea water.
The Commodore's figure fell heavily into the ground like a cannonball, creating a huge pit.
Smoke and dust rose everywhere.
A second later,
The Commodore walked out of the pit slowly, with the wide cloak behind him dancing gently.
The seastone shackles had been cut off and fell to the ground along his wrist, making a crisp sound.
Darren twisted his wrist calmly, then raised his head and looked at the pirate in the sky.
A strange red light flashed in the depths of his pupils.
The corners of his mouth curled up in an unscrupulous arc.
"Now, the fight officially begins."

I ask for everything, and I am grateful.
