Chapter 163 A Legend Falls, Cherry Blossoms Wither.
-
The golden lion is very tall.
Even without a lower leg, it stands taller than Bilian.
He lowered his head; the wound that pierced his skull had stopped bleeding, and the intense pain of nearly twenty years was subsiding.
……
"I've never been here before."
The bloodshot in his eyes faded, and the golden lion calmly gazed at the icy plain.
"This country is too weak. I lost interest in it a long time ago and never thought I would come back one day."
"Pirates have no homeland, and that's why I despise Roger and Whitebeard."
"Is my hometown something special? Even though I'm going to die here, I don't think it's anything special."
"It's just so-so..."
……
"Nothing special is what makes a hometown, right?"
……
Turning his gaze away, the golden lion grinned: "So... kid, where's your hometown?"
Allen gently shook his head: "I don't know, and it doesn't matter."
"Any last words? Time is running out."
……
The golden lion bowed its head.
His chest was a huge hole, the edge of which was covered by an icy blue color that eroded his presence, turning his flesh and blood into specks of ice.
He reached out and stroked his chin, paused for a few seconds, and then suddenly burst out laughing.
"Hehehehehe!!"
"Like a rooster skewered and roasted, but it's burnt to a crisp! Hahahaha!!!"
"Hahaha……"
The laughter gradually subsided.
His gaze lingered on his "old companion" that had been with him for decades.
"Sakura Ju and Kiku are two good guys..."
……
"Uchiha Allen, make good use of them, perhaps..."
The golden lion looks up at the sky.
How long has it been since the man who ruled the sea from the sky looked up at the sky like this?
Just take it as a joke.
"They might be the keys to unlocking some great treasure; that's the rumor that led me to try and steal them."
"The creations from the second destruction of the world. If you wish to seek the truth of history, go to the Kingdom of Giants."
"It was because of them that I met Rocks."
"What a wonderful trip..."
……
"I had too many last words to write down."
Allen turned around, and the pure white in his hair faded, returning to its black color.
Behind him, the Magatama Ice Wheel, which replaced the Awakened Flame, collapsed.
……
The golden lion also vanished along with it.
He's all he has left, his mouth still chattering on and on.
"Hey! Kid! You absolutely have to suppress the Great Pirate Era that Roger started! I've made that promise!"
"Hahahaha!! What kind of expression will Roger have?! I guess I'll end up in the same place as him when I die!!"
"He's not a good person either!!"
"You're walking too fast, you jerk! I have so many questions for you!!"
"Why is your awakening so different? What do you want to do next? What are your dreams?"
"Why did you have such a calm look in your eyes when I thought you were dead?"
"What exactly is sustaining you?!"
"Feed...tell me..."
"Why can't I be like you, for—"
……
……
-
South China Sea, unknown waters.
Huge islands fell from the sky, crashing violently into the sea and sinking in the towering waves.
The ocean currents will remember that these islands once touched the clouds, carrying a legend of both arrogance and loneliness.
The golden lion dies.

"You've been gone too long, Major General Allen."
"Yes, the execution day is in three days. It can't be okay if the main character isn't there."
On the White Wolf, there was a tall, beautiful woman and a man in a gray suit who was barely able to play a supporting role.
Her long, black hair was styled into a neat and elegant updo, revealing her snow-white neck.
A few stray hairs brushed against her cheeks, softening her sharp facial features and adding a touch of unapproachable, aloof beauty.
With her hand resting on the hilt of the famous sword "Konpira," her beautiful eyes gleamed with curiosity as she looked at the two swords carried by Allen.
The most beautiful woman in the Navy, and a candidate for Admiral, Momousagi-Gion.
And tea porridge plus.
……
Allen spotted the two from a distance, his expression unsurprised: "Three days..."
When he arrived in the Flower Kingdom, there were still two months until the appointed execution day.
Have I stayed this long...?
"Why are you here?"
……
With a cigarette dangling from his lips, hands in his pockets, and hunched over, he looked like this...
He's qualified to compete with Kizaru for the title of the Navy's number one perverted old man.
"Gion already explained the reason from the beginning, didn't she?"
"Your report to Marshal Sengoku was about returning to the Flower Country for a week, saying something about... the breathing rhythm of the local old tea trees being helpful for meditation?"
"Let's come up with a slightly better excuse, like saying we're looking for a lover... cough cough."
Jia Ji coughed lightly and grinned, saying, "The Marshal was worried about you, so he specially sent us to check on you."
"After all, it would be quite unusual for you to go out and not cause any trouble."
……
"If these are the exact words of the Warring States Marshal, I will sue him for defaming his subordinates."
……
Jiaji was taken aback: "Uh...why are you taking this so seriously? I was just joking..."
Allen's stiff face relaxed, and he smiled and patted Kake on the shoulder: "It's alright now that you've said that. Brother Kake, you misunderstood me. I don't like causing trouble at all."
……
Kaji had seen many marines who bullied their subordinates and fawned on their superiors, but this was the first time he had seen one who specifically targeted the Fleet Admiral...
no……
Why are you putting your arm around my shoulder so naturally? It's our first time meeting!
wrong……
The pupils constricted sharply.
The problem is, why was I completely unaware that he was so close and even touched me?
……
Aokiji was promoted to general, filling the position of one of the three generals.
The lieutenant generals who originally had code names have been reclassified as general candidates. There are currently three general candidates at headquarters: Momousagi, Chaton, and Kuroba.
When a vacancy arises in the position of general, they are qualified to fill it.
……
Kong had never fought such a rich battle before. In his era, even the three generals couldn't be replenished, and when something happened, he had to call Garp, who was on vacation.
Zephyr stepped down early, and Sengoku and Garp shouldered almost all the burdens during those years.
……
Even though he is far inferior to the current three generals, Kake is confident in his own abilities.
This time, Fleet Admiral Sengoku originally wanted someone else to urge Allen, but he took the initiative to come and see this young naval rear admiral who had already obtained a code name.
Surprisingly, Gion thought the same way.
……
Before Jia Ji could even react.
"That's... Sakura Juu and Kihara!!!"
Gion's eyes widened, and she exclaimed in surprise.
She had felt that the two swords looked familiar, and now that she could see them clearly, she immediately recognized them.
How could I not recognize you...
She was there during the battle when Golden Shiki ravaged the Marine Headquarters!
……
Gaji stared intently at Allen's back.
Two identical swords with a cross-shaped hilt, silver-white sides, and a black stripe down the center...
He unconsciously placed his hand on his right chest.
It was this sword, stained with the blood of countless marines, that pierced his chest!
"Golden Lion..."
He himself didn't realize that his voice trembled slightly when he mentioned that name.
……
Allen turned his head and casually said:
"Oh...it was a gift from a dead person, not bad, right?"
