Chapter 197 The User of Strange Fruit Ability

"I have been here for too long, old man. I usually sleep all day. Today you came here and woke me up. I wanted to tease you to relieve my boredom, but I didn't expect you to be so stubborn and boring!" The old voice said speechlessly.

"Were you telling the truth before?" Vic was still a little unsure whether what the old man said before was just to tease him.

"Of course it's the truth. I have indeed been here for nearly two hundred years, and I have indeed seen Roger. However, I have spent most of my time in hibernation and have been trapped here, so I don't know much about the outside world."

The old man saw that Vic was also a recognized person, so he didn't lie to fool him. People in this world rarely tell lies. They even directly tell the enemy what abilities they use. They are very straightforward!

"You have lived for two hundred years? Are you human?" Vic was very curious about this man who claimed to have lived for two hundred years. Can a human live so long under natural conditions?

"Of course I'm a human. Come up to the platform and see what I look like."

The old voice only said that he was a human being, and if you had any questions, you could come up and see. This made Vic very suspicious, wondering if the voice would suddenly attack him when he got close, or if the voice would take over another person's body.

But curiosity still drove Vic to keep going upwards. He was getting closer and closer to the platform, and gradually he could see clearly that there was a clay sculpture of a short old man on the platform.

It looked very much like the images of the land gods that Vic had seen in his previous life, sitting cross-legged on a high platform, not very tall, about the same size as a five-year-old child, with wrinkles all over his face. If a fly crawled on that face, five and a half of its six legs would be sprained. There were cracks all around the mouth of the clay statue, as if some mud had fallen off.

Vic felt that the thing that had just spoken to him could not possibly be this thing. It was more likely to be the giant mechanical soldier. At least the giant mechanical soldier did give him some reaction just now. This clay sculpture looked like a work of art.

Vic continued to approach the platform. At this time, his line of sight had already surpassed the platform and he could see the entire scene on the platform. The clay sculpture had its hands on its cross-legged knees, palms facing up.

There were two fist-sized holes on the platform in front of the clay sculpture. Water was gushing out of the two holes, forming an arc-shaped cylinder connected to the palm of the clay sculpture. The water seemed to disappear in the center of the palm. This scene made Vic feel very strange.

Vic turned his head and looked around. He saw the scene fully revealed behind the platform. There was a giant mechanical soldier sitting on the ground with his back against the rock wall. Not counting his legs, he was probably twenty meters tall. Next to the rock where the giant mechanical soldier was sitting, there was a square stone of a different color embedded in the mountain wall. Only one side of the rock with strange square characters was exposed, right in the gap between the body and arms of the giant mechanical soldier.

"This giant mechanical soldier is quite intact, and there are no scars on the surface. I wonder if it can still move?" Vic thought secretly in his heart as he looked at the giant soldier.

"Don't look around. I'm right in front of you. Can't you see it?"

At this time, the old voice sounded in Vic's ears, because Vic was now less than two meters away from the platform. Vic turned around and saw that the clay sculpture was still the same. If there was any change, it was that a piece of mud had fallen off the side of the mouth.

......

On the hot spring street, Rebecca and Kang Bo have already started fighting. Both of them are swordsmen, so the fight is relatively direct, with swords flying back and forth.

Barnett and Deskray also faced each other. Neither of them had fought before, and neither of them knew the other's strength, but Barnett knew that Deskray's speed was definitely not as fast as his.

"shave"

Barnett also started with the Six-Style Shave, and sure enough, this move worked quickly. Deskray fell into a pit twice, and was kicked away by Barnett at close range, spurting out another mouthful of blood.

"These two were so fast that I couldn't react in time. I had to use my devil fruit ability, otherwise I wouldn't even be able to escape."

Deskray is not a fool. After suffering losses twice from shaving, he already knows that this trick is his nemesis.

"Big Round Table"

After Deskri stood up, he conjured up a large round table out of thin air and threw it at Barnett, while he took two steps back to prevent Barnett's extreme speed.

"Hmm? A devil fruit ability?"

Seeing his opponent conjure up a large table out of thin air, Barnett guessed that it must be the ability of a devil fruit, but he had never heard of such an ability and didn't know how to deal with it.

But the table had already flown close to him, so he could only punch it, trying to smash it to pieces.

Instead of seeing the expected scene of the table exploding, he found himself in an unfamiliar place. The ground under his feet was flat and the sky was still the same, but he could no longer hear any sound. Looking into the distance, he could still see the familiar burning streets, but the buildings on those streets looked enormous and the flames covered the sky.

"What's going on? Am I hit? What kind of ability is this?" Barnett was a little surprised. The change was too big. He became alert and turned around on the spot to prevent sudden appearance of enemies.

At this moment, he saw a huge figure approaching in the distant sky. He could only see the upper body, and the lower body seemed to be buried in the ground. It was Deskri, who had just thrown the table. The bloodstains on his face were very clear, and he had a smug smile on his face.

"Hahaha, you've been tricked! You're now in my round table world. The rules of this world will be made by me. Isn't it hopeless?"

A huge buzzing sound reached Barnett's ears, and he realized that he was actually sealed on a round table.

"The tabletop also has boundaries, right? As long as you reach the edge of the table, you can get out."

Barnett calmed himself down and ran away in a direction away from Deskri. Deskri just looked at him mockingly without stopping him.

Rebecca, who was fighting at this time, forced Kangbo back with a sword and disappeared on the spot. She appeared beside the round table and slashed at it with a sword, trying to split the table in half and rescue Barnett.

She was fighting with Kangbo just now, and her observation Haki sensed that Barnett kicked the wretched little man away, and she was a little happy.

But after the man threw a round table towards Barnett, the closer the round table got to Barnett, the smaller Barnett's body became. Then the table stood still, and Barnett appeared on the table like a little puppet, which looked quite weird.

Before Rebecca's sword could hit the round table, she was bounced away by an invisible force, and her whole body was blown away by that force. It seemed as if there was a layer of barrier around the entire round table, and attacks could not get close at all.

"Hahaha, it's useless. As long as you enter my desktop world, no external force can destroy the round table. Give up the idea!" Descri felt very happy to see the woman who had kicked him just now being humiliated, and he laughed standing at the other end of the table.
