Several trees appeared on Is's body, which then formed several wooden clones.
These clones were dressed exactly like Is, and their appearance and expressions were extremely similar, making it impossible for ordinary people to distinguish them.
"How is this possible?" The Golden Lion was stunned by what he saw. How could there be so many Is?
Although Shiki had seen Devil Fruit users who could create clones on the high seas, he could easily see through their true forms with his strength.
After all, there are bound to be some differences and flaws between a clone and the real person, but he couldn't tell which of the clones that Is released was the real one.
Because the clones' auras were extremely similar.
Chapter 171
…………
Beihai, a certain sea area.
A world-famous pirate ship named the Al Jackson sails on the sea.
This pirate ship is Roger's ship.
After receiving news that Bondiwald was on an island in the North Sea, they quickly headed to the North Sea.
However, they encountered a storm along the way, which caused them to lose their way, so they have not yet arrived and are still on their way.
"Captain Roger, according to the intelligence we just received, not only have the navy gone to the North Sea, but Ish and his men have also gone." Jabba stood beside Roger, reporting the intelligence he had just received.
"Is it?"
Upon hearing this name, Roger frowned immediately. The person he least wanted to face on this vast ocean was none other than the Celestial Dragon Bernard Is.
"Should we continue forward, or return to Captain Roger?" Rayleigh asked seriously, his expression grave.
Bondiwald killed Tom, which angered them all, and they all wanted to avenge Tom, but now Is is also on that battlefield.
If they went, they might be detained by Is, so they had to carefully consider whether or not to go.
Roger frowned and remained silent for a long time before asking, "Rayleigh, do you think we should turn back?"
Rayleigh was stumped by this question.
Jabba, standing to the side, remained silent, unsure of what to say.
"Rayleigh, Jabba, you must understand that Tom is not only our friend, but also our benefactor," Roger said earnestly, patting the two men on the shoulders.
Whether it was buying the Adam Tree or asking Tom to design the ship, they didn't have enough money to pay. It was Tom who valued their determination, so he was willing to help them design the ship at a very low price and buy the Adam Tree materials for them.
Roger wasn't particularly interested in the Pluton battleship blueprints; his main reason for pursuing Bondiwald was...
It was entirely because Bondiwald killed his friend, or rather, their benefactor, Tom.
"Then let's go. Although Is is powerful, we are not weak either," Rayleigh said with a nonchalant smile, taking a sip of his wine.
"I have to kill Bondiwald myself, otherwise I can't face my dead friend Tom." Roger's face showed anger when he thought of Bondiwald.
“Captain Roger, keep going. Perfect timing. I’d like to see just how strong Is’s men really are,” Jabba laughed.
The Roger Pirates continued sailing towards the battlefield where Is was, and did not turn back in fear because Is was on the battlefield.
on the island.
Is still engaged in fierce battle with the Golden Lion.
Is's wood clones caused Shiki a lot of trouble, but Shiki's Devil Fruit ability was equally formidable.
Golden Lion finally destroyed all of Is's wooden clones, but Is was already in front of him and swung his sword at him.
"Shh!"
Is's sword struck the Golden Lion's shoulder, but at the same time, the Golden Lion's two famous swords also struck Is's waist and abdomen.
The two then retreated separately.
"Hahaha... Is, your swordsmanship is still far inferior to mine." The Golden Lion laughed maniacally.
Although Is's knife struck his shoulder, causing him considerable discomfort.
However, he also managed to strike Is with both of his blades, and in his view, this exchange of blows was a victory for him.
"You can still laugh after I slashed you?" Is stared at Shiki as if he were an idiot.
"I only took one hit from you, while you took two. If we keep exchanging blows, I'll win sooner or later," the Golden Lion grinned, responding calmly.
But his smile vanished the next moment, as the wound on Is's abdomen was healing at a visible speed.
And it was emitting wisps of white steam.
In the blink of an eye, Is's wound was completely healed.
"You? How is that possible?" The Golden Lion was stunned once again.
The wound healed way too fast! Keep in mind that his sword is a famous one, and it's covered in Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki.
The power of domineering aura and sword energy remained in his wound; no matter how exaggerated it was, it couldn't possibly have healed this quickly!
“Surprised, Shiki? That’s why I said I didn’t understand why you laughed after I slashed you.” Is smiled and shrugged, his face full of contempt.
"Damn it, no wonder Rocks was no match for you." Golden Lion now knew exactly how Rocks had lost.
Fighting a monster like that, victory would be a miracle. (Zhao Nuozhao)
At this moment, the Golden Lion had the idea of running away. He had thought that someone would come to help him in his battle with Is.
However, all the pirates on the island were tied down by Is's men, making it virtually impossible for them to help him.
"Don't dare to fight? Trying to escape, Shiki?" Is seemed to see right through Shiki's thoughts and sneered.
"I refuse to believe I can't hurt you, Is," the Golden Lion said with a ferocious expression.
He knew he couldn't defeat Is today, but he was unwilling to accept it. After all, he had some pride, and it was impossible for him not to be angry at being looked down upon like this.
He put the idea of running away aside for now; he needed to give himself some psychological comfort and address the trauma inflicted on Is.
Chapter 172
“Dang Dang Dang!!!”
The Golden Lion clashed repeatedly with Is, their blades exchanging sparks.
"Lion Power Scroll!"
"Boom!"
Several enormous lion heads appeared on the ground around Is.
"Snapped!"
Is slapped the ground, and the paper quickly separated from the ground, revealing a giant snake formed from the paper behind the huge lion's head.
The giant snake quickly coiled around the lion's head, destroying it.
"Has your Devil Fruit awakened as well, Is?" Shiki asked in a heavy, hoarse voice.
“I awakened even earlier than you, Shiki,” Is replied calmly, holding a long sword.
"Looks like I'll have to use my trump card," the Golden Lion muttered to himself.
With a flick of his finger, the golden lion instantly darkened the sky.
Looking up, you can see the sky above, filled with countless buildings densely packed together.
"Over the years, I've been storing the things destroyed by the Rocks Pirates in the sky, but I haven't had a chance to use them until today. I'll use them on you today, Is."
The golden lion's lips curled up, its fingers twitched, and the shattered buildings that blotted out the sky plummeted straight down.
…………
On the coast, on a naval warship.
"Acuno, look what's that?"
Yoriichi Tsugikuni was lying on the chair when he suddenly saw a dark mass of clouds above the island. He quickly patted Acnologia beside him and said something.
"what happened?"
Acnologia, who was fast asleep, opened her eyes and stared at Yoriichi Tsugikuni, asking a question.
"Look up," Yoriichi Tsugikuni said, pointing to the sky.
"Huh? What's that?" Acnologia glanced at it and asked in confusion.
“I’m asking you,” Yoriichi Tsugikuni said with a shrug.
“I don’t know either.” Acunorokia shook her head.
Only when the countless shattered buildings high in the sky were close enough to the island could they see what they were.
"Isn't this the power of a tornado?" Yoriichi Tsugikuni pondered, gazing at the buildings in the sky.
As their companion, he naturally understood that Tornado's ability was to freely manipulate anything.
"No, this shouldn't be Tornado's ability."
Acnologia stretched, took a sip of tea, and said casually.
"Whose ability is this?"
"Yoji, have you forgotten about Shiki of the Rocks Pirates?" Acnologia lazily reminded him from his chair.
Golden Lion's abilities had long been investigated and understood by the Navy.
When Acnologia is bored, he also pays attention to the strength and abilities of the Rocks Pirates members.
Therefore, he knew that this was not Tornado's power, but Shiki's power.
"I remember now, Shiki can freely manipulate non-living matter that he has touched, and he can store it in the high sky, right?" Yoriichi Tsugikuni suddenly said, as if he had just remembered something.
Acnologia rolled over and lay on her side in the chair to continue sleeping.
.........
On the island, Is calmly and composedly watched the building about to descend from the sky.
"Black Dragon Form!"
With a soft utterance, Is began to change, his body growing larger and covered in black scales.
In the blink of an eye, he transformed from a human into a colossal dragon.
