Chapter 581

Silence, a deathly silence.

Everyones eyes were fixed on the palm of k.u.mas hand. The white light emitted by the hand was filled with a terrifying power.

The tense atmosphere in the air was like an invisible mountain pressing down on everyones hearts. The seemingly quiet surroundings gave off an aura that made people feel as if they were about to stop breathing.

Now, everyone was like fish on a chopping board, waiting for k.u.ma to judge everyone. Life and death were all decided by k.u.ma.

If you can survive the next explosion, I will let you go. He held the air ma.s.s in his hand that had gathered terrifying energy.

Hearing this, everyones nervous faces immediately revealed excited smiles. Although the air ma.s.s in k.u.mas hand had terrifying power, they were still very confident that they could survive from below.

But before everyone could be happy for a long time, what k.u.ma said next stunned everyone, But you have to give me the head of the straw hat boy. As long as you give me his head, the government wont pick a fight.

Hearing this, Usopp and the others, who were previously happy, suddenly changed their expressions and slowly sank.

k.u.ma wanted them to make a choice. On one hand, it was Luffys life, and on the other hand, it was their life. Should he abandon Luffy to save everyone, or should they die together?

What? What is this Seven Warlords of the Sea doing? Nami, who was hiding in the dark, had a surprised expression. k.u.ma chose to make people feel very unea.s.sy.

Suddenly, there was a light flashed in Namis brain, combined with the information from the previous conversation between Lin Tian and k.u.ma, and now what happened.

Nami suddenly understood the general idea, she looked at Lin Tian and asked, Lin Tian, you said that k.u.ma of the Seven Warlords of Sea is a cadre hidden in the Revolutionary Army, so k.u.ma is still a member of the Revolutionary Army.

And Luffy is the son of the Revolutionary Armys leader Dragon. So, k.u.ma received the order from Dragon and specially set up a test for us.

Seeing Nami so quickly speculate the reason for the development of the matter, Lin Tian showed a trace of surprise on his face, nodded and admitted Nami speculated, Yes, this is indeed Dragon tested you.

Hearing Lin Tian admit, Nami all understood in her heart as why Lin Tian was with k.u.ma from the beginning, and why Lin Tian was still hide when k.u.ma appeared.

It turned out that he had already knew that this was a test for Luffys partner, which was also their test.

Thinking of this, Nami suddenly asked, If we choose to accept, what will happen?

Nami asked, but Lin Tian was stunned. He looked deeply at Nami waiting for his answer. Lin Tian said, If you choose to accept, it means you choose to leave. A guy who gives up their companions, whether it k.u.ma or I will not let him stay on the s.h.i.+p. Maybe you will not die, but you must leave.

Speaking of this, Lin Tian paused, and then the corner of his mouth showed a confident smile, But I have confidence in you. I believe you will make the most suitable choice in your heart.

Hearing Lin Tians confident words, Nami could not help but smile. Nami believed that everyone would also make the real choice in their hearts.

Do you want us to give up our partners?

Usopp lowered his head and whispered in his mouth, but could clearly feel the disdain and sarcasm in Usopps tone. Did he think that death was the reason for us to give up our partners?

Without any hesitation, everyone spoke out the only answer in their hearts.

We reject!

k.u.ma said calmly, Thats really a pity!

He held the compressed air ma.s.s with both hands and slowly stretched out his hands. He opened his palms. The air ma.s.s looked ordinary, but everyone could clearly feel the terrifying energy contained in it. The air ma.s.s slowly flew in front of everyone.

Ursus Shock!

After losing the compression of the elastic force of k.u.mas hands, the air ma.s.s that was the size of a palm began to return to its original appearance, but the energy that scattered during the process instantly formed a terrible shock wave.

The invisible impact swept out like a hurricane. The earth began to tremble, and the castle that had already collapsed began to collapse. Huge pieces of gravel or trees that were held together in the forest were powerless to resist the impact.

The several tons of debris were lifted up, let alone the crowd. They only felt an irresistible force bombarding their bodies, as if they had entered heaven.

Then, without even feeling the pain, they were already seriously injured and unconscious, mixed in with the flying stones. The lucky ones could still lie on the stones, and the unlucky ones were directly pressed down by the several tons of stones.

The terrible shock wave spread throughout the entire island in the blink of an eye, directly arriving at the sea. The originally calm sea immediately set off waves that were more than ten meters high.

The surrounding walls on the floating sea surface were also broken by the impact. As the sea flow drifted away, the entire island seemed to have entered the end at this moment.

What the h.e.l.l, what is this guy doing, dont you understand what I said?

Nami and Lin Tian were also in the center of the explosion, the shock wave could not avoid hitting Lin Tian. The s.p.a.ce cover that was casually arranged under the rush, only lasted for a few seconds and broke.

After setting up three layers of s.p.a.ce cover, Lin Tian breathed a sigh of relief, turned around to look at the apocalyptic scene on the island. He could not help but open his mouth to curse.

Lin Tian knew from the beginning that this k.u.ma would not do things like he said, for this, Lin Tian also specifically reminded, but why this guy wasnt holding back now.

On the side, Nami did not make a sound. That was because she was already stunned by the apocalyptic scene in front of her. This was the first time Nami had seen such a terrifying attack.

The shock wave raged for more than a minute before it stopped. The entire island really turned into ruins this time. Many flying objects fell a few hundred meters away from the island.

Under the sea breeze, the smoke that filled the castle slowly dissipated, finally revealing the scene inside. Other than k.u.ma, no one in the hundreds of people on the island stood.

All of them were unconscious on the ground. Some were pressed by the stones, and some were lucky to not face the fate of being crushed by the stones. It could be said that if k.u.ma really wanted to kill everyone, it could be done easily now.

But k.u.ma did not have this idea, his eyes swept around the surroundings, until Luffys figure stopped, stepped towards Luffy, and casually slammed the boulder on his body and disappeared into the horizon.

Hidden in the dark, Lin Tian saw k.u.ma grabbed Luffy, not only was he not nervous, but he was relieved, k.u.ma had already reached the answer to the test.

Ittoryu Iai: s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ Sonson!

But at this moment, a figure flew out, s.h.i.+ning light flashed, k.u.ma grabbed Luffys right arm and was cut off by Zoro.

Seeing Zoro suddenly appear, Lin Tian was stunned, then he opened his mouth and scolded, Zoro, what are you doing out here?

Hearing Lin Tian curse, Zoro who showed a smile at Nami, looked up at Lin Tian puzzled and asked, Lin Tian, I stopped k.u.ma, isnt it right?

Lin Tian calmed down the anger in his heart and explained with a wry smile, Originally everything can be finished, but Zoro suddenly broke out, which means that the test has not ended, and k.u.ma will probably throw out other problems.

Lin Tian was helpless. As a powerful being that can make pirates terrifying, k.u.ma will not be merciful when doing things, but Lin Tian seems to forget that he was more ferocious than k.u.ma.

Hearing this, Namis face changed, and looked at Zoro in the field with a worried look.

Although he managed to dodge k.u.mas direct attack, Zoro was still sent flying by the shock wave. His hands clenched into fists as he sat up.

Standing up was a bit too much. His mouth was panting heavily, and his body was constantly trembling. Zoro understood that his body had already begun to stop listening to him.

After regaining some strength, Zoro raised his head to look at k.u.ma and asked, Do I have to take Luffys head first?

This is the biggest concession. k.u.mas eyes flashed, cold and ruthless replied.

Just now, k.u.ma heard Lin Tians voice secretly coming, Pay attention to yourself, dont go too far! However, k.u.ma did not pay attention to Lin Tian reminder.

After thinking for a few seconds, Zoro made a decision. His hands were on the ground begging, I understand, but I want to use my head as a subst.i.tute. I hope you can spare their lives.

Even though I dont have much reputation right now, I should be enough to become the worlds number one swordsman.

k.u.ma turned pale when he heard Zoros determined words. He asked, Since you have such ambition, are you still going to die for him?

Zoro looked straight into k.u.mas eyes and replied, In addition to this, what other way is there to save a partner? If even the captain cant protect him, what is there to talk about ambition?

Luffy is going to become the Pirate King!

Hey, Zoro, why are you going to die! If you die, how can you talk about ambition, idiot!

At that moment, Sanji swayed and staggered over. To be able to survive the attack just now, Sanji had already reached his limit, but even so, he did not hesitate to step forward.

He walked in front of k.u.ma and said, Hey, big guy, rather than taking Zoros life, you might as well take mine. Although I dont have much fame right now, the most troublesome existence in the future in Straw Hat Group will definitely be me, Black Leg, Sanji.

It was just a few words, and Sanji seemed to have used up all his strength. His trembling body, if not for the fact that he gritted his teeth and forced himself to hold on, would fall at any time.

Dont kill him. Take my life. Hey, tell them to find another chef. Also, Luffy, tell him that I cant help him become the Pirate King.

Pa!

A palm pressed tightly on Sanjis shoulder. In his shocked eyes, Zoro picked up his sword and hit his stomach.

How could Sanji, who was already at his limit, withstand this heavy blow? He turned around and grabbed Sanjis arm at the last moment.

b.a.s.t.a.r.d.

Take my life. Consider it as me begging you. Also, dont leave my corpse here and let them see my death. If possible, bring my corpse back to the East Blue, the place where I go out to sea.

Finally, he looked at Sanji. Apart from the three blades in his hands, Zoro threw all of them to the ground and opened his hands. Facing the impending death, Zoro was calm.

Whether it was Sanji or Zoro, the moment they stood out, they already had the awareness of death.
