Chapter 207: God of the Sea
A corner forgotten by history, a mysterious place that has existed for a long time, among the flowers——
A bright blue starlight flashed by, and Lex slowly stepped out from the void.
The first time Lex came here was a trespass, but this time he was invited by Im, so he went straight to a place not far from Im and found a stone block to sit on.
"I'm here. Any instructions? Ancestor."
"...Mmm, I want to see you."
"What can I see? But my dear, I have not seen your true face yet. I wonder if -"
"No."
Yim refused bluntly. It seemed that he had always been hiding his true appearance and was unwilling to expose it to the sun.
Lex smiled slightly:
"So, what do you want me to do?"
"...Mum wants to ask you, what do you think of...Nika...?"
"Hmm haha!~ Nika, although I'm not interested, but from what I know, it seems that you are very popular among people and are a liberation fighter who can bring freedom and smiles."
Lex's answer was flawless, without revealing his own opinion.
This caused Yimu, who was wearing a black robe, to frown slightly:
"Mum wants to hear your opinion."
"Hmm, haha~ As for me, Nika is not as good as you, the ancestor, in my eyes. No matter what the process is, there is only one result; no matter whether there is destiny guiding you, there is only one history. Since history has chosen you, then the blank process in between, no matter what, no matter what happened, is already a done deal. No matter what the future holds, the history that has already existed cannot be changed."
"You know, I am just like you. I am not interested in the life and death of those people in the sea. Ruling the world is too troublesome. You should have found out what I want to do. Yes, I just want to watch the show. I wonder if I can have this honor?"
Im silent.
half an hour-
"...I like you very much. Although you are very ambitious, it doesn't matter. It just so happens that...I am not interested in worldly power either. And you can exercise God's authority on my behalf. It doesn't matter what happens."
“…Grandfather, are you so indifferent to the affairs of the world? You must be very familiar with what I want to do, so why do you still——”
"Because Mu likes you, and perhaps, also because the sea is too boring, ... leave."
After Im finished speaking, his figure slowly disappeared deep among the flowers, and even Lex's observation Haki could not sense it!
Lex did not get up immediately, but continued to sit alone on the stone pier, looking around at the scenery among the flowers.
It is lush and green all year round, with flowers blooming in every corner. The fragrance of flowers intoxicates time and isolates the vicissitudes of life from this place.
“…It’s become unpredictable.”

After leaving Huajian, Lex went straight to find the Five Elders.
"Five of you, the ancestor decided to let me exercise the authority of God on his behalf. I believe you all already know this."
Lex sat down suddenly. In the room with power, five old men of different appearances had different thoughts, but all of them gave Lex strange and admiring looks.
I don’t know how this guy did it?
He actually used sweet words to confuse Lord Yim.
"Don't be so proud, you should do what you should do and don't have any thoughts that you shouldn't have."
Mars spoke first, looking unhappy, and lectured Lex.
Jupiter followed closely and immediately refuted old Mars.
"Saint Maz, Lex is now the [Deputy God of the Sea]. Since Lord Yimu has decided on this matter, you should do what you should do and listen to Lex's words instead of blindly indulging in your suppressed anger during the war."
Jupiter, who was extremely wise, spoke righteously and awe-inspiringly, which immediately stunned both Mars and Lex.
Lex didn't expect that someone would speak for him before he even started the debate.
"Well, Saint Peter is right. But since Saint Maz is unhappy, it's good for him to speak out. I don't think there's anything wrong with that."
"Lex, you are too polite. Saint Maz has such a bad temper."
Jupiter smiled kindly, then glared at Mars:
"You've lived for so long, but how come you're not as magnanimous as Lex? Is that your limit?"
“You——!~”
Mars was immediately speechless.
Jupiter smiled proudly:
"Hey, Lex, don't worry about it. Just keep running the Expo. By the way, why don't you announce your government's identity as the executive prime minister at the Expo? This way, you can strengthen the government's prestige and allow you to rule Qinghai with justification."
"Well, I'm prepared."
Jupiter smiled unexpectedly;
"Haha, you are worthy of me. That's good, that's good."
Seeing this, Mercury continued:
"Lex, I only have one request. Don't turn the government into your personal power, especially Marinford. Don't do those little tricks. We can discuss anything."
"Ok, I know."
"That's good."
Venus opens her mouth:
"Lex, when will Gion move into the Holy Land? I have already prepared a mansion for her."
"Well, after the Expo is over."
"That's good."
Saturn opens:
"Lex, you can't interfere in Vegapunk's affairs. Lord Yim specifically asked him to be taken care of."
"Ok, I know."
"That's good."
With a smile on his face, Lex dealt with the five old men one by one, and then summoned the patriarchs of the 19 Celestial Dragon families in the Holy Land to hold a secret meeting with Lex as the center.

Meanwhile, Sky Arena.
The battle for the first place in the ranking tournament has begun!
People all want to see which strong person will receive this honor.
"Next stop, Kaido vs. Hirakawa Toratsugu!! ~ The winner advances to the ranking tournament finals!"
Rhine held the microphone and announced loudly.
"As expected, it has to be Kaido and Hirakawa Toratsugu!~"
"That's inevitable. Both of them are mythical beasts with extraordinary combat power."
"I bet on Hiroshi Kawahara to win. I bet 50 million Baileys."
"What?! Isn't it forbidden to bet on the ranking match? Only the life and death match next door can be bet on."
"Eh~ Those big shots don't allow it, but there are people running dealers in the black market."
"Oh? Who?"
"I heard it was a guy named Donald Simi."
In the audience, everyone was talking about it and looking forward to the battle between Kaido and Hirakawa Toratsugu.
The winner will defend the No. 1 spot in the ranking tournament!
I heard the prize is a mythical beast species! ~
It’s funny to say, whether it’s Kaido or Hirakawa Torajiro who defends the title, they don’t need the mythical beast species because they themselves are mythical beast species.
Unlike the battles between kings such as Garp VS Roger, Rex VS Golden Lion, Silver Axe VS Keynes, the ranking competitions are actually more suitable for the majority of ordinary strong people.
Whether it is Kaido at this time (weak admiral strength) or Hirakawa Toratsugu (admiral-level strength), they are all at a visible level. Although they are not weak, they are still within people's cognition.
Unlike the occasional King of Glory competition, it is not for show.
The aftermath of those battles and the domineering aura alone would make it difficult for ordinary people to resist, let alone watch the battle.
I remember the time when Lex fought against Golden Lion. Both of them were high-altitude combat players. They fought above the clouds the whole time. There were earth-shattering and sky-shattering, sea tremors, strong winds, and loud noises. However, people could not see the two of them. When the fight was over, they only saw Roy announcing that Lex had won.
Everyone watched the whole thing in vain.
On the contrary, these ranking matches, or the life-and-death games next door, are what the majority of ordinary people like to watch the most, and they are also what they can understand.
What follows is the battle for the first place in the ranking competition.
Kaido, who participated in the competition at an unknown time, also came to this position. Needless to say, Hirakawa Toratsugu was determined to win the first place.
In the arena——
"Ullallallalla~ Torashi, I heard that you are a ronin from Wano Country?"
"I was indeed a native of Wano Country, but now I only have one identity, that is, a member of the Hiku Pirates, nothing more."
Kaido looked surprised:
"Well, why would a man as strong as you submit to Shiki?"
"Haha!~ Kaido, no need to say more, you are not qualified to comment on the admiral right now, let's fight~!"
"Ullallalla!~ The Third Generation: Inducing Naraku!!!~"
At this time, Teacher Kai has not yet mastered the domineering color entanglement, so the huge mace is only wrapped with a thick layer of armament color. However, even so, the momentum is amazing enough!
Pingchuan Torashi looked calm and fearless.
"Hoho~Jiu Nue·Dark Pass——!~"
As soon as he finished speaking, boundless black air filled the entire place, and a terrifying dark light flashed on the tip of Hirakawa Torajima's sword. The fruit ability of the mythical beast species, the Nue form, was activated! !
At the same time, on the tip of the sword, the power unique to the great swordsman was revealed, Wielder Kaido!
The domineering electric arc and the armed black armor are attached to the blade at the same time!
Hirakawa Toratsugu, the world's number one wandering swordsman!
Kaido, the beast, is the little Karami of the contemporary pirate world~
Kaido looked solemn and took the blow head-on!
next moment--
boom! ! ~
Kaido's huge body flew out backwards! ~
