Chapter 259 Risking their lives and saving everyone

In order to ensure maximum fire coverage, all warships changed from sailing longitudinally to sailing horizontally around the island.

Lu Kai initially ordered the artillery to bombard the no-man's land.

At this time, no one cares about such details, and it doesn't matter even if you know them.

Strictly speaking, Lu Kai did not violate orders. Since it was an indiscriminate and comprehensive bombardment, the uninhabited area was naturally within the range of the bombardment.

This is the only thing Lu Kai can do at the moment.

The scholars who had already rushed into the Tree of Omniscience were risking their lives to put out the fire.

These books in the Tree of Omniscience are the wealth of the whole world and the lifeblood of scholars. They know that their abilities are limited, but at this moment they must try their best to preserve them even at the cost of their lives.

Even if it's just to protect one more book, one more page, or one more chapter, they are willing to risk their lives for it.

Just as all the scholars were desperately trying to put out the fire, an archway emitting a strange white light suddenly appeared in the middle of the Tree of Omniscience. It was extremely dark behind the door and nothing could be seen.

At the same time, the arch also exuded a special power, distorting the breath inside the Tree of Omniscience and isolating it from outside detection.

"Walk through this door and you will all survive!" After doing all this, the door seemed to have life and made a voice.

All the scholars couldn't help but stop what they were doing at this moment, but they didn't go in obediently, because they were unwilling to give up the books in the Tree of Omniscience.

"I will protect all the books. Believe me, books are important, and you are important too. Go!" The voice from the door sounded again.

At the same time, the door emitted a strange power, and then all the books in the Tree of Omniscience seemed to have grown wings, and flew one by one to the pool under the tree.

"Enter that door!" Dr. "Clover" Kloba, who had the highest prestige and was seriously injured, made a prompt decision and immediately gave an order to all scholars.

Yes, the book is important, and they are important too. Now that the book has been saved, they certainly shouldn’t have died like this.

After hearing what Dr. Kloba said, the scholars did not hesitate any longer and all rushed towards the strange door and disappeared in an instant.

One of the figures belonged to Nicole Robin's mother, Nicole Olivia.

Olivia did not rush into the dark space gate immediately like everyone else.

Instead, she saw that the books were protected and the scholars could escape safely, so she ran outside the Tree of All-Knowing because she wanted to find her daughter, Nico Robin.

However, the Gate of Dark Space did not give her this opportunity. Instead, a force of energy suddenly appeared, sweeping Nicole Olivia and forcing her to enter the Gate of Dark Space.

If Olivia were to run away now, both mother and daughter might die. If she escaped, both of them could survive.

After Olivia disappeared, the door to the dark space also disappeared, and the books no longer flew away one by one, but disappeared in large numbers from the bookshelves and then directly into the bottom of the lake.

Moreover, all the books that entered the lake were not soaked by the water. Instead, a layer of air film formed on the outside, completely protecting each book.

But there are so many books in the Tree of Omniscience that even if they were to be transferred in large quantities, it would take a very long time.

At this moment, the entire O'Hara has changed beyond all recognition. Lu Kai looked at the scene in front of him, clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

In the distance, Lu Kai also saw his good friend Sauron attacking the warship.

Sauron was the naval admiral who attacked Lucey due to misunderstanding when Lucey first went to the naval headquarters. It was after that misunderstanding that Lucey and Sauron, who was then a major general, became good friends.

Sauron has always had a good relationship with Kuzan. Although Aokiji once disliked Luke for a while, after spending a long time together, their relationship has improved.

Therefore, it is well known within the navy that Luke, Kuzan and Sauron have a good relationship, but at this moment Luke seems to be willing to sacrifice his own relatives for the sake of justice.

After seeing that Sauron had destroyed several warships, Kuzan went straight to the island and prepared to kill Sauron in person.

Lu Kai also saw Nico Robin at the same time, but he did not step forward.

First of all, Lu Kai couldn't do much under the watchful eyes of the public.

Secondly, all his current experiences are stored in the book of the Tree of Omniscience, and are still being transferred.

Just as Lukai's warships continued to bombard O'Hara, a huge explosion suddenly came from the distant coast. This was the sound of the refuge ship carrying ordinary people from O'Hara being sunk by Sakaski's warships.

Under the fierce bombardment, all the ordinary people on the ship were killed.

"Humph!" Lu Kai watched all this with cold eyes, thinking, "It's really justice."

At this moment, Lu Kai had already made up his mind that he would be the naval marshal in the future, and as for Sakaski, he should get as far away as possible.

After a long time, there was no trace of life in the entire O'Hara, and Lu Kai suddenly jumped down from the top of the mast.

Lu Kai looked like he had done some strenuous exercise; his clothes were soaked with sweat and his body was a little unstable. Su Luo, who came over, quickly supported him.

"Lieutenant General Lu Kai, are you okay?" Many members of the Iron Army were shocked to see Lu Kai suddenly behave like this, and asked hurriedly.

"Master, how are you?" Su Luo and others asked hurriedly.

"Hey!" Lu Kai shook his head helplessly, "I just feel sad, it's okay."

This explanation is reasonable. Not only Lu Kai, but also the righteous "Iron Army" who have always accepted Lu Kai's people-first principle, no one can accept such indiscriminate massacre.

The longest time that a member of the 'Iron Army' has followed Lu Kai is more than four years, and the shortest is half a year. Even those who have followed Lu Kai for only half a year have received the same ideological education in the reserve team as the 'Iron Army'.

These people were extremely loyal to Lu Kai, and they all believed in Lu Kai's justice of putting the people first. But seeing such a scene at this moment, they could only endure it, and their hearts felt like they were being cut by a knife.

Especially when they saw that even the refugee ship was ruthlessly sunk, and then saw that Lu Kai seemed to have been drained of all his strength and his face was full of pain, everyone's heart was extremely heavy.

"Lieutenant General Lu Kai, do you want to take a rest?" someone next to him asked with concern.

"Forget it, it's almost over, let's take a rest later!" Lu Kai waved his hand and stared ahead.

Lu Kai's look was naturally not due to mental unbearability, but due to physical exhaustion. As for the reason, it was naturally because he saved all the scholars and books of the Tree of Omniscience.

The door in the Tree of Omniscience just now was the door to dark space that Lu Kai cast.

As long as two space gates are set up in different places, instant teleportation over ultra-long distances can be achieved between the two gates.

The move that Luke used to transfer the book into the water is called "space displacement", and the move that forms a permanent protective air film on the book is called "space wrapping". This move was developed after Luke's devil fruit ability awakened.

Space wrapping: After the devil fruit ability is awakened, a permanent space film can be covered on the surface of an object to isolate the object from the outside world.
