Chapter 491 The 4th Emperor's Daughter is Worth Killing
Chapter 491 The Daughter of the Four Emperors Is Worth Killing
Seeing Vegapunk wavering, Yamato took advantage of the situation and said, "Brother Lu, I hope you can uncover the truth of ancient history, overthrow the brutal world government, and use your research in the right way to benefit people all over the world."
These words were certainly not thought out by Yamato, but were agreed upon by Lu Li on the way back after setting out to sea.
Considering that Egghead Island will have a certain level of defense, Lu Li will go to fight, and the task of recruiting Vegapunk will fall on Yamato.
Therefore, Lu Li prepared several sets of speeches for Yamato in advance and asked Yamato to use them according to the situation. Anyway, Lu Li had a God's perspective and knew what Vegapunk's concerns and dreams were.
In this situation, it would be extremely easy to persuade Vegapunk.
Sure enough, after hearing what Yamato said, Vegapunk breathed a sigh of relief and was very moved. "I didn't expect Mr. Lu to think this way. His mind... makes me ashamed."
Lu Li had stayed on Egghead Island for a while. Big Bear and Bonnie were there too. In his memory, Lu Li always acted indifferent, so Vegapunk couldn't guess what he was thinking.
He always thought that Lu Li would hate him, but he didn't expect that the other party had the world in his heart and didn't care about the hardships he had experienced.
As expected, I was judging others by my own standards. The scale of the natural disaster was far greater than mine!
"Then I'll go with you."
Vegapunk said that he actually had no choice now. From Rob Lucci's words, he had already confirmed that the World Government wanted to kill him, and the only ones who could protect him were those at the level of the Four Emperors.
From a personal perspective, he really wanted to join the Revolutionary Army, but unfortunately, Dragon did not come to save him, so he had no choice but to go with the pirates.
Fortunately, he heard that the Beasts Pirates were different from ordinary pirates. They had some elements of the Revolutionary Army and were very kind to the people under their rule. They were considered the Four Emperors with the best reputation in recent years.
Vegapunk then looked at Stussy and Zhan Taomaru, "You should come with me. The World Government will not spare your lives after the rebellion."
Although they could also choose to kill Rob Lucci to silence him, there is no wall that is impenetrable. Once the truth comes out, Zhan Taomaru and Stussy will surely die. Now they have no choice.
Stusi and Zhan Taomaru looked at each other, and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes. In the end, they could only nod.
"Don't rush up yet."
Hawkeye spoke at this time, his eyes looking at the display screen in the safe house, paying attention to Lu Li's battle.
"Why? Wouldn't it be good to go up and help now?"
Yamato spoke with her not particularly bright brain.
Hawkeye glanced at Yamato and the others, "You will become a burden. I may not be able to protect all of you."
On the screen, Lu Li was in a fierce battle with the Five Elder Stars. Due to his strong mobility and combat skills, he was able to fight one against five without being at a disadvantage.
It seemed that the Five Elders had tried their best to deal with Lu Li, and Lu Li was able to control the situation, but this was because Lu Li was alone now.
If they go up and expose their target, the Five Elders will definitely attack them first in order to prevent Vegapunk from falling into the hands of the enemy.
By then, Lu Li alone will not be able to stop him, and the same will be true with the addition of Hawkeye. Someone like Vegapunk who has no fighting power will definitely be killed instantly.
On the contrary, Lu Li, who has no scruples, can use guerrilla warfare to break the enemy's defense and has room for maneuver.
Rumbling--
Because of the battle between the six powerful men, Egghead Island trembled, the buildings below continued to collapse, and the display screen in the safe house went black.
"It's not safe here. I'll take you to the edge first to see if there's a chance to leave Egghead Island."
Hawkeye frowned and said that now that he had joined the group, he would not be so irresponsible. This was his first time to go on a mission within the team and he did not want to mess it up, as that would be embarrassing.
"Wait, I still have some research materials that I haven't copied yet. I need to go to the underground backup control room."
Vegapunk said that the underground facility had been shaken before, and for safety reasons he did not rashly cross the long distance to the backup main control room, but he had checked through the monitors in the safe house before, and it had not been damaged.
"Is it important?"
Hawkeye asked. What he wanted to do was to lead Vegapunk and the others underground to the edge of the island, then cut through the foundation with his black knife and kill them all directly with a few others.
The underground was unstable and if there was a landslide, it was hard to say whether he could leave Vegapunk unscathed.
"It's very important. It contains the research data of the Mother Fire. Without it, it would take a lot of time for me to do it from scratch relying on my memory."
Vegapunk's forehead was covered with sweat. "The bad news is that a copy of the Mother Fire has been taken away by Dr. Gofia. She will definitely copy all the research data in the main control room. If we don't have it, we will be a step behind."
"What is the Mother Fire?"
Yamato asked curiously.
"You can understand it as eternal energy. My original intention was to eliminate war by solving the energy problem, but I also know what the World Government will do with the Mother Fire..."
Vegapunk said worriedly, "If the Mother Fire is used in ancient weapons, I will become the biggest sinner in history."
"So we have to use ancient weapons to fight ancient weapons?"
Stussy was smart and asked from the side. She had been undercover in CP0 for many years, so naturally she knew more about the government's cards. She had long suspected that the World Government had ancient weapons, and she became more convinced after hearing what Vegapunk said.
Vegapunk nodded. "Although it is not my intention, if we want to fight the government, we also need ancient weapons. Without the Mother Fire, if a war breaks out later, you will be slaughtered one-sidedly."
Yamato's expression turned serious when he heard that, "Is it difficult to copy things? I'll do it. You guys go to a safe place with Uncle Mihawk first."
Mihawk didn't find it strange to hear Yamato calling him uncle, after all, he was already in his forties.
"It's not that difficult. I'll give you a miniature communicator. You put it on and I'll instruct you on what to do. When you get to the main control room, plug this device in and it will automatically download."
Vegapunk said as he pulled out a hard drive-like device and handed it to Yamato, along with a communicator.
He didn't refuse because the solution Yamato proposed was more reasonable, and now was not the time to argue about such things.
"Then be careful and don't accidentally enter the battlefield above."
Hawkeye gave a reminder, but he was not too worried. After all, except the Five Elders, no one on this island could be a match for Yamato.
He acted without delay. After Vegapunk gave Yamato the things, he led a few people directly to the outskirts. Whenever he encountered a place blocked by a landslide, he would use his black knife to clear the way.
On Yamato's side, he first studied and confirmed the signal of the communicator, then put the hard drive into his chest pocket and prepared to set off towards the main control room.
But she had just taken two steps when she felt a gust of wind. Her powerful observation Haki allowed her to gracefully dodge the attack coming from behind.
With the sparks from the broken circuit in the passage, Yamato saw the attacker clearly, who turned out to be Rob Lucci who had awakened under the power of the Stussy Fruit.
If Lu Li saw Lucci's condition here, he would definitely be a little surprised, because behind Lucci's leopard form, there was actually a cloud of flames that seemed to appear and disappear. It was obviously close to the awakening state. This was not the combat power he should have at this point in time in the original book.
When Lucci woke up, he found that Vegapunk had already escaped. He followed his breath and chased him, but he only saw Yamato, so he simply tried to kill him. "CP0, it seems that the sister just now didn't kill you because she was thinking of her colleagues. It would be a pity if you didn't continue to sleep on the ground."
Yamato was not nervous at all when facing Lucci. He even walked forward, wanting to get to the main control room as soon as possible to complete the task.
"Did Vegapunk escape?"
When Rob Lucci sensed that there was only Yamato nearby, he realized that the enemy had split into two groups and that he had been chasing in the wrong direction. It would be unrealistic to catch up with Vegapunk.
The failure of the mission made him, an elite, a little frustrated, but fortunately he still had a chance to save face.
He braced himself and locked his eyes with Yamato, "The daughter of the Four Emperors is also worth killing."
Yamato's face was full of question marks, and he tilted his head, "Huh? Are you out of your mind?"
Lucci assumed a leopard-like charging stance and sprinted at high speed, killing Yamato.
Seeing that the other party was not making sense, Yamato swung out her mace, "Thunder Bagua!"
boom--
The mace hit Lucci's face, deforming his entire body, and smashed countless underground buildings before it stopped.
Yamato retracted his mace, "How can you be so weak? Where do you get the courage?"
With that, she continued on her way, rushing towards the main control room.
…………
On the surface, the purple mist of the devil spread across the battlefield, leaving long streamers in its wake.
Under Lu Li's high mobility, the Five Elders found it difficult to organize coordinated attacks, and finally Saturn revealed a flaw again.
Lu Li swung the large Demon Prisoner in his hand and cut Saturn in half with one blow, sending black blood flying all over the sky.
"Satan Saint!"
The other five elder stars exclaimed, but they had no time to pay more attention, because Lu Li's attack did not stop. After cutting off Saturn, the second sword swept towards Venus.
Ding--
Amid the crisp crosstalk, Venus's black knife collided with the prisoner demon, emitting dazzling sparks.
This great swordsman who had accumulated experience for hundreds of years regained his form in the battle, but he helplessly discovered that his swordsmanship could not overwhelm Lu Li, the true number one in the world.
"They say he's the strongest swordsman in history..."
Lu Li forced Venus back with a single blow of his sword. The sharpness of the sword extended directly towards Venus' face. The aura of death made Venus dodge in a panic.
Lu Li used the space behind him to block the attacks of Mars and Jupiter. With his left hand, he forced back Mercury's pig's advance, then stepped forward and chopped off one of Venus' arms that had lost its balance.
He swung his sword in the center of the Five Elders' encirclement, "They are just ordinary people who were not born in my era."
His attack continued, and his words made Venus very angry. He had lived for hundreds of years and he had even fought against Ryuma, the former swordsman of Wano Country. How could he tolerate such humiliation?
Therefore, even though one of his arms was broken, he did not retreat and faced Lu Li's attack with one hand holding the knife.
A moment of excitement, coupled with the long-term sense of comfort that she would not die, made Venus take a step towards death.
"Nasu Shouro-sei, don't..."
Mercury reminded Venus loudly, hoping that she would choose to retreat, but the speed of language was too slow, and things had already happened while he was speaking.
Lu Li's sword moves wildly, stirring up the situation on the battlefield, engulfing all the energies of wind, fire, poison, etc., and slashing out dark-colored sword lights. Unparalleled sword intent bursts out, and life and death are decided in an instant!
Jin Xing's black knife couldn't resist this force. Holding the knife with one hand didn't have enough strength, and it was shattered after just a moment of stalemate. Then, Lu Li's Prison Demon slashed across and cut off his head.
Lu Li passed by Jin Xing and grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. "My opinion is that he is not as good as Mihawk."
Jin Xing's head rolled to the ground, and it seemed that she still had a trace of consciousness left. When she heard Lu Li's words, she became even more furious.
After all, Hawkeye, the so-called world's greatest swordsman, was just a child's play in the eyes of him, one of the Five Elder Stars who had lived for a long time. As a result, Lu Li chopped off his head and still said that he was not as good as Hawkeye. How could he tolerate this?
Just when Jin Xing wanted to be reborn and fight Lu Li again, he suddenly found that his consciousness was gradually fading.
Mercury, Jupiter, and Mars also realized that something was wrong at this time. That is, why did Saturn, which was the first one to be cut in half by Lu Li, become completely motionless?
When they looked back, they found that Saturn had become completely cold!
It was clear that Lord Im's power was still there, but not only were they unable to heal his injuries, even his immortality had disappeared.
Saturn's body fell to the ground. The activity of his flesh could still be felt, but he was indeed dead. This feeling was more like... extinction on the soul level.
For a moment, the Five Elder Stars felt a chill rushing to their heads, their whole bodies were cold and sweaty.
Is it a war?
Is it withdrawal?
Without infinite recovery and immortality, wouldn't they be the ones with no room for error in this duel with Lu Li?
Lu Li can make many mistakes, but they can only make one mistake?
This is not right, this used to be their privilege!
Just as the Five Elders were trembling as they watched the devil-like figure wrapped in purple mist walking towards them, another huge magic circle appeared on Egghead Island.
This time the teleportation array was not on the ground, but in the air. There were not just one person in the giant teleportation array, but more than thirty figures appeared.
These people were all wearing wizard robes of different styles. The one leading them was wearing a pure white robe, which looked particularly holy. He was Rafar, the leader of the Rune Adventure Group.
The Admiral of the Navy personally went to the battlefield, leading dozens of powerful personal soldiers.
The arrival of this reinforcement gave the Five Elder Stars some relief.
"Hey, Tianzai, you're still in high spirits."
Standing high in the sky, Rafar looked down at Lu Li and greeted him, "But how long can you jump?"
After summoning the elites in the group, Rafar activated a large-scale teleportation array and arrived directly at the battlefield. It was not that he was dawdling, but that the Five Elders died too quickly.
At the moment, their combat power was suffering, but he still had a calm smile on his face, because he had already prepared a killing move for Lu Li.
It can directly consume all of Lu Li’s soul energy!
No matter how strong a lone wolf is, without his soul source, he is just a paper tiger that is about to fall into coma.
The situation is still under his control!
