Chapter 152 An indescribable brilliance.
-
The Mangekyou Sharingan appears.
He gripped the gun tighter.
Allen spoke casually, but his hand behind his back was already preparing the Spirit Flame Fan.
Too close!
Even though Allen didn't activate his Kaleidoscope beforehand, his Observation Haki was never turned off, yet Rayleigh was able to get within a hundred meters of him before noticing him!
That short distance is enough for Rayleigh to launch a fierce attack!
Wang Zhi's stealth ability, which he was famous for, was completely incomparable to this, not to mention that the right arm of this Pirate King was known for his Haki and swordsmanship.
Blood begins to heat up, preparing for battle.
Should we fight...?
……
Rayleigh looked up at the group of people coming down the gangway, also deep in thought.
Given the importance of the person in front of us, if we were to exchange him for Shanks and the others, the Navy would definitely agree.
The issue is……
Can I catch him?
Capturing alive and killing are two different concepts. Rayleigh could see from the battle on Beehive Island that Allen had not fully reached Rayleigh's level, but he was not far off.
Even if I could defeat Allen with all my might, the chances of keeping him alive were slim, since I didn't have high-purity seastone handcuffs.
Rayleigh's plan was to gather enough strength to negotiate with the Navy and secretly release Shanks.
Rayleigh was fairly certain about this, because he knew about Shanks' special identity.
If we take action here, it will mean a complete break with the navy, leaving no possibility of negotiation.
This place is too close to Marine Headquarters; perhaps the Admirals of Headquarters will arrive before we defeat him...
Absolutely do not lay a hand on them!
……
Rayleigh set up the oars of the small boat, forcing a smile: "It's a wonder Major General Allen knows an old fellow like me, haha... I was just dropping by!"
"It's hard not to recognize you. I used to hang up a poster when I was a kid with a bounty on your head."
clatter……
Allen took a step forward, and as he stepped down, a chilling aura spread through his eyes, causing the temperature in the area to plummet.
……
What the hell? Is this kid planning to make a move?!
"Hey, hey... my bounty was suspended a long time ago, I'm just an ordinary coating shipwright now!"
Rayleigh naturally raised his hands and smiled, "A hero of the Navy wouldn't lay a hand on a law-abiding civilian like me, would he?"
……
Stepping onto the port bridge, Allen smiled at Rayleigh: "You were just thinking about the consequences of attacking me, weren't you? Talking about being law-abiding... You're quite humorous."
Rayleigh's expression changed slightly: "Is it the same ability as Redfield?!"
Redfield, commonly known as the Red Earl or "The Lone Red," was a legendary pirate in the old era who single-handedly rivaled Roger and others!
He once fought a ten-day and ten-night battle with Fleet Admiral Steelbone Sky, and possesses top-tier Observation Haki that allows him to read other people's minds!
……
Allen shook his head: "No, I was just kidding you. You're so easy to fool."
……
……
"Making fun of the elderly is not a good habit."
Rayleigh shook his head helplessly: "I did think about it just now, after all, you personally arrested Hancock, whom I wanted to protect."
"It's a pity I'm too old; I should probably give up on fighting."
……
Allen walked slowly toward Rayleigh and met his gaze calmly.
"three times."
"You emphasized that you were old, and twice you said that you were just an ordinary boatman."
"Unlike the old guys I've met before, they're really unwilling to admit they're getting old..."
……
Looking directly into those eyes filled with eerie power, Rayleigh couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
In the end... it still happened.
Forcing a smile, he said, "Seeing young people like you emerging in this new era, I can't deny that I'm getting old."
Allen chuckled and shook his head.
"Based on my shallow understanding of human nature, people generally tend to show what they lack most."
"Those pirates who don't admit they're products of the old era are mostly not very skilled. Subconsciously, they know they're out of touch with the times, so they keep denying it."
"What's truly terrifying is a pirate who realizes he's living in an old era."
"Whitebeard, Golden Lion... and you!"
……
……
"Have you seen Shiki...?"
Rayleigh's smile vanished, and he placed his hand on the hilt of his sword at his waist, instantly transforming his demeanor.
Rayleigh, on the small boat, was in a lower position, yet it seemed as if he was looking down at Allen.
Extremely cold, with an aura of the underworld permeating the air.
There are no wrong nicknames, only wrong names.
Legends of this man circulate on the high seas... Anyone who dares to challenge Rayleigh will receive a ticket straight to the underworld!
……
There was no fierce clash of Conqueror's Haki.
The intertwining of chilling pupil power and ghostly death energy caused the air to surge like a viscous black tide, emitting a mournful cry of unbearable pressure.
"Kid, do you want to fight me now?"
"Let me explain first..."
Rayleigh's gaze swept over Lucci and Dol, and the two immediately felt a chill run down their spines.
"I don't exactly have the manners of a grown man; I might actually hurt your partner."
……
Allen chuckled lightly: "Those who will drag me down don't deserve to stand with me."
"I was just wondering what you would do..."
"So... you're thinking of going to find your old buddies and getting them to help rescue Shanks?"
"If it's just Hancock, I guess the old man from Sengoku will give you face to appease you."
……
……
And you say you can't read minds?!
Clang——
Rayleigh drew his longsword half an inch from its sheath, a dark and oppressive arc of black and red electricity flashing within it.
"Slander that just comes out of nowhere..."
"Although they were once shipmates, he is now the captain of his own pirate crew. Whatever the outcome, he should bear it himself."
……
"Ha, explanations are just cover-ups. I knew you were too easy to fool."
……
……
Rayleigh: "..."
Is this never going to end?!
brush--
The longsword was drawn, and a surge of sword energy slashed diagonally, grazing Allen and cleaving a huge mangrove tree in half in the distance!
Rumbling--
……
A few strands of hair fell, but Allen remained unfazed.
"I originally wanted to fight you. Compared to Whitebeard and Golden Lion, you should be the closest to your prime."
"But how can I stop you from doing something so interesting?"
……
"interesting?"
"As a navy officer, you actually find this kind of thing interesting?"
Rayleigh didn't deny it; it would be too embarrassing to deny it after being seen through.
……
"Yeah, the former crew of the Pirate King uniting to rescue a Celestial Dragon arrested by the Navy... Isn't that interesting?"
!!!
Rayleigh's pupils contracted sharply.
How could he know?! Shanks told him?
Absolutely impossible!
Shanks despises his own bloodline so much, how could he casually mention it to anyone!
He'd been on Whitebeard's ship; could it have been Whitebeard who told him?!
……
tread--
Allen turned around, his military boots clattering on the bridge planks.
"I really can't read minds... It's just that your expressions are too easy to read. The old white-bearded man wouldn't tell me something like that."
……
"Act quickly and bring them together."
Allen stopped and turned back, his scarlet eyes etched into Rayleigh's gaze.
What madness! A gaze yearning for war!
The demon has finally been unleashed!
……
"A Shanks who has lost to me is worthless. I'm looking forward to it..."
"The last stand of the old era's tide!"
presumably……
It will bloom with indescribable splendor!
