Chapter 509: Flowers and Im

Chapter 509: Flowers and Im
Everything that happened at the scene made everyone confused. Even Lu Li was stunned and didn't have time to chop down the prisoner in his hand.

What kind of story is this?
The blonde beauty's body wrapped in a white robe was exquisitely slender. She had already performed common sense etiquette when bending down. However, when she saw that Lu Li did not react, beads of sweat appeared on her fair forehead.

She is Monelle, the deputy leader of the Rune Adventure Group, and she took over the management of the adventure group after Rafar's death.

This drama was not a temporary decision. In fact, when Rafar died, at the moment before his death, Rafar left a message in the group channel.

Because of time constraints, Rafar only sent out one word.

drop.

Because they entered One Piece through special props, and had done some delayed tasks, they still had quite a bit of time staying in the world, considering that Lu Li's attack rhythm would be very fast.

As an explorer, Rafar was not optimistic about the power of Im at all, so for the safety of the remaining members, the best conclusion he came to was to let the remaining members surrender.

To be honest, as the leader of a large adventure group, Rafar is competent. Under his leadership, no one has died in the Rune Adventure Group for a long time, and the members respect him very much.

Asking them to give up their revenge for Rafar and surrender, many people were initially resistant.

But Monell understood Rafar's intentions. They had already been defeated. If they continued to fight Lu Li, even if their remaining troops helped Im defeat the Beasts Pirates, they would not be able to conquer the world.

Judging from Rafar's personal experience and the outcome of the battle on Egghead Island, it was unrealistic for them to defeat Lu Li.

It is hard to say whether Yim will be killed by Lu Li, but as the vanguard team, if they encounter Lu Li, they will only be slaughtered one-sidedly.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, Monell could only follow the order of the former commander and choose to surrender to Lu Li.

Originally, she sent messengers to the New World to find Lu Li, but Lu Li was running around everywhere, and they came back empty-handed every time, so the current situation had to develop into a situation where he turned against his own side at the last minute.

"Monelle! Are you going to betray your own family!?"

Garin Sheng shouted angrily. He never expected that someone in the Knights of God would betray him.

Monell and others have become honorary Tianlong people, and Monell has been invited to join a large family. What an honor! Shouldn't we be grateful and fight for the Holy Land until death?

"Evil Celestial Dragon, what are you talking about?"

Monell said innocently, "We are staunch liberal fighters."

As she said that, she looked at Lu Li with a smile, "Tian Zai, please come this way. I will take you to Yimna and quickly kill that old Deng!"

Lu Li was annoyed by the Rune Adventure Group's arrogance at first and then their flattery. Wasn't it just that he had gone a little too far in the battle on Egg Head Island?

Why have your eyes become so clear?
"I am not a demon. Since I am willing to give up evil and do good, the matter of one man and one Bailey is written off."

As Lu Li spoke, he took a step forward and drew his sword. With one sweep of the sword, he wiped out those genuine members of the Knights of God who were unable to move due to the spell restraints.

Garin Sheng wanted to stop him, but was stopped by Hawkeye and Fujitora who drew their swords together.

Things happened too quickly. By the time Jialinsheng realized the reality, he had no time to save his subordinates facing Lu Li's quick knife.

The people of the Beasts Pirates and the giants of Elbaf could not understand Lu Li's codewords. They just thought that Lu Li was quite magnanimous and humorous. No wonder he could trick the enemies into defecting and joining their camp.

But the people of the Rune Adventure Group were complaining in their hearts. What Lu Li was talking about was not "Bailey" at all. It was obvious that he wanted them to pay "protection fees". What he wanted was the inheritance crystal!
Monell felt humiliated, but there was nothing he could do. He saw Lu Li kill the elite among the elite with a single blow. Although those people from the Knights of God were imprisoned by them, each one of them, if taken out individually, had the strength of a vice-captain or above, close to that of a general, probably like the Green Bull before.

But such strong men were all killed by Lu Li with just one slash of his sword. What could they use to fight against Lu Li?
So Monell could only force a smile and said, "Lord Calamity, please come this way. Imna Laoden is about to launch an ancient weapon. We must deal with him quickly."

Monell's remarks sounded okay to Sengoku and Garp, after all, they didn't know who Im was, but Garin Sheng was quite annoyed when he heard it.

I don't know where these people got the courage from. Not to mention turning against our side, they even dared to verbally insult Lord Yim. They must be fed up with living.

"Mr. Kaido, it seems that the enemy still has some hidden strong men. I will go over and take a look. The battlefield here will be left to you. Everyone be careful."

Lu Li said that he had no intention of fighting with the navy and the Knights of God here. It would be best if he could find Im directly. After all, he didn't want to see the clash of ancient weapons.

Even if the sea level can be restored later, Im will not throw ancient weapons into the sea for fun. He will definitely attack the countries under the jurisdiction of their Beasts Pirates.

Wano Country has Pluto who can try to intercept and bombard it, but other countries cannot. Once Im goes crazy and attacks those countries, even if he cannot affect the war situation in the Holy Land, it will be enough to shake people's hearts. It's very disgusting.

On the other hand, Lu Li and his group had a higher moral bottom line, so even the option of using the Heavenly King to bombard the holy land was rejected, because there were still many poor slaves abducted by the Celestial Dragons.

Fujitora and Aokiji are very sensitive about this matter. After participating in the combat meeting, Sabo of the Revolutionary Army also expressed strong opposition and bluntly stated that if they use ancient weapons to attack indiscriminately without regard for civilians, the Revolutionary Army will not cooperate with the Beasts Pirates' attack.

In fact, Lu Li really wanted to say to Sabo that you are so naive. If it was Long who came to the meeting, he might have already voted to use ancient weapons to bombard the holy land.

But he doesn't hate naive people. After all, he would feel a little uncomfortable using ancient weapons to attack indiscriminately. Therefore, in addition to the strategic blockade of Aquaman, ancient weapons like Pluto and Uranus are best used as a deterrent against confrontation if they can avoid bombardment.

"Imu? What is that? I've never heard of it."

Kaido said in a muffled voice. He was not intentionally insulting anyone, but he really had never heard of it. He had always believed that the Five Elders were the highest authority in the World Government, and they had all been killed by Lu Li.

"Go ahead if you want to. These bastards can't stop us."

As the captain, Kaido agreed with Lu Li's combat direction, and at the same time, he hit Zhan Guo with a Thunderous Bagua. The attacks of the two powerful men collided, and the strong wind they created directly forced others to retreat.

Seeing this, Lu Li used Flash Step to leave the battlefield with Monell. As for the remaining explorers of the Rune Adventure Group, since they had already fallen out, they simply joined the Beasts Pirates to attack the navy and Galen Saint and his men.

"Tian Zai, we still have fifty-two people, but because of the huge initial investment, the group is far from as rich as you think. Considering the damage we suffered this time, it will be difficult for us to survive in the next world. It's too much for everyone to go together..."

Monell tried to phrase it on the way, hoping to get Lu Li to lower his demands. The inheritance crystal was not a piece of cake. This time, they only had a chance to get it during the war, but they were late and didn't get anything. "Ah? Then I'll go back and chop you all to death."

Lu Li said casually, "Don't look at me like this, I'm actually quite lucky, it's not a problem for me to get a dozen treasure chests."

Monell shuddered when she heard that, feeling the murderous aura from Lu Li that was not present in ordinary explorers. She thought to herself, what kind of person is this? Why does he want to kill everyone at every turn?

"No...no, can we discuss this? We really have no money left. If we can't make it to the next world, we will die. The loss is too great, and the members will not agree to it."

Monelle wanted to cry but had no tears. She had not suffered such injustice since she reached the second level. She and Rafar had always bullied others together. How could she ever humble herself and discuss things with Lone Wolf?

"The Dead Man's Chest is pretty good, too."

Lu Li just said this lightly while hurrying on his way.

Monell was sweating profusely in anxiety. "I... we really don't have that much money. I can give you thirty dollars at most. No more. Even if I give you more, there will still be a lot of deaths in our next world."

Seeing that the other party's panic didn't seem fake, Lu Li knew that this was the most he could squeeze out of him.

Rather, the Rune Adventure Group was overthinking. If they had left the holy land early and found a place to hide, Lu Li would not have spent so much effort to search for them and kill them after conquering the world.

After all, he is not a devil. We all belong to different spaces and have different positions. He is not a murderer who would dig deep into the ground to find and kill people after the victory or defeat.

Of course, if the opponent is still fighting him in the Holy Land, he will definitely be happy to kill all the Rune Adventure Team and see how many treasure chests he can get.

But the other party actually changed sides and shamelessly announced in front of everyone that he wanted to be a freedom fighter and join Kaido's camp. Lu Li really couldn't reach out and chop the smiling man.

"Okay, sign the contract."

Lu Li nodded. He was just trying to bluff Monell. It was true that he could get the chest of the dead, but the chests of ordinary members of the Rune Adventure Group were too poor. Compared to finding some inexplicable things, it would definitely be better to get the crystal of inheritance.

He quickly drafted a contract, which roughly meant that the Rune Adventure Group could not attack him or conduct activities that were subjectively detrimental to him in this world. This rule would also continue in the future world. As long as Lu Li did not actively attack the Rune Adventure Group, the contract would continue to be effective.

Simply put, not only can the Rune Adventure Group not be his enemy in One Piece, but they can also not take the initiative to be his enemy in the future unless there are rigid space mission requirements.

Even though Lu Li is a warrior, he has actually studied "Contract Studies" in the space, so there won't be many loopholes. If he signs the contract in this way, he won't be afraid that the Rune Adventure Group will retaliate against him in the future because of a grudge.

Of course, Lu Li was not afraid of revenge from the weak. He was of course happy to receive the inheritance crystal.

After signing the contract, Lu Li focused his attention on dealing with Yim. Monell was relieved and told the team members in the team channel that it had been done and the money for the life had been paid.

boom--

Just as they were about to reach the Garden Hall, the Red Earth Continent shook violently.

The celestial dragons in the holy land were shocked again. They saw an elephant as tall as the sky crashing towards the red earth continent. The impact caused the red earth continent to tremble three times.

"What the hell is this? How can there be such a big elephant?"

The celestial dragons looked at the giant elephant in horror, finding it hard to imagine that it was a living creature.

Saint Charlos, who was squeezed to the observation deck at the edge of the Red Earth Continent because of the chaos, became brightened after seeing the elephant, "I want this! I want this elephant as my pet!"

"This……"

The bodyguards around him were having a hard time holding onto Saint Charles and preventing him from falling, and when they heard this, they almost let go and threw the fat pig down.

I don't know if the giant elephant heard what he said, but it straightened its body, raised its head, swung its long trunk, and hit this side.

With a loud roar, the entire observation deck here was flattened, and Saint Charles was smashed into a meat patty.

When Lu Li looked back and saw this scene, he was also a little surprised, because he did not let the elephant master join the battle. After all, his relationship with the Mink Tribe was not good, and the Mink Tribe could not influence the elephant's thoughts.

At this moment, the Elephant Lord raised his head and let out an elephant roar, which was even louder than Loki's dragon roar before, and it made the people in the holy land feel numb.

Under the sea, Bai Xing felt dizzy because of the waves caused by the elephant master. She said to herself with curiosity in her eyes: "Such a big elephant, it turns out that it is also eager for this battle?"

Under the leadership of Monell, Lu Li has arrived at Yim's hiding place. He cut through the solid wall outside with a knife and broke into the flowers.

Monell did not and could not lie to him. Im was indeed here, and facing the general attack of the Beasts Pirates, He seemed surprisingly calm.

Yim turned around in the sea of ​​flowers and leisurely picked a yellow flower. Through the skylight in the dome and the sunlight seeping in from the wall that Lu Li had cut down, Lu Li and Monell both saw Yim's true face.

Surprisingly, Yim was actually a woman. She wore a long crown on her head that propped up her pockets. She did not use any special abilities to hide her true appearance, so Lu Li and Monell could see it clearly. From her appearance, she was somewhat similar to the familiar Weiwei.

"Intruder, why don't you bow before the king?"

Yimu picked up a flower in her hand and looked at it, not taking Lu Li and Monell seriously.

This was also the first time Monelle faced Im. She just took a look with the advanced reconnaissance props and began to retreat in horror.

Lu Li raised his hand and brushed his face, and the mask of the evil god appeared. At the same time, purple mist and evil spirit burst out from his body, directly activating Bankai and Shura Jue, and his hair stood on end like the god of thunder.

As Monell was retreating at a high speed, Lu Li rushed forward with unparalleled momentum and slashed at Im's neck with his knife.
