Chapter 171 Uncle and Nephew (2)
Barrett walked out of the secret room, feeling confused.
His broad palms were slightly covered with cold sweat, which revealed the turmoil in his heart at the moment.
When the oncoming child soldiers saw Barrett walking out of the secret room, they all ran over quickly.
Seeing this group of familiar and lovely faces, Barrett finally calmed down and was no longer immersed in what Gut had just said.
Then he turned to the little follower beside him and said:
"Xiao Si, the general hasn't called in the past few days?"
The boy named 'Xiao Si' shook his head:
"No, we just need to report to him regularly every few days as usual."
Barrett frowned, his doubts growing again, Gut's words still ringing in his ears.
General, did you really betray them?
Barrett didn't think much about it and asked the other boy:
"Xiaowu, is our 'cargo' still there?"
"Yes, Brother Barrett."
Barrett nodded, thought for a moment, and decided to temporarily give up the fight for life and death in the Sky Arena.
Instead, he went to a store introduced by Gutt to dispose of these "goods".
"Xiaowu, take the goods and follow me. Keep a low profile."
"Yes!"
-
And Barrett left the secret room.
Gut is communicating with It.
"Brother Gutt, did you really tell Barrett the truth? It feels a bit disadvantageous to tell Barrett directly that their general betrayed their information."
Gutt did not comment:
"Young Master's meaning."
"Oh, ... Speaking of which, this Barrett is really ridiculously strong. A 13-year-old boy, without any guidance from a strong person, without any fruit ability, he can reach such a level relying solely on his physical talent. The last person like this was Kaido."
Gutt commented:
"It's not just physical talent, it's Haki, it's Armament Haki, it's ghost energy."
It exclaimed:
"Ghost energy? The kind of power that Brother Rhine has?"
Gut nodded lightly:
"Well, I believe in the young master's judgment."
It became even more curious:
"Brother Gutt, can you tell me a little bit about what the young master means? I'm a little curious."
Gut leaned back in his chair, glanced at Yite slightly, and then said lightly:
"'Douglas Barrett, my future right-hand man, Leon Lex.'"
!!!
It was extremely shocked. Such an evaluation was just short of saying that Barrett had unlimited talent.
Gut sighed slightly:
"Hey, do more for the young master, listen more, learn more, talk less, ask less. It, I heard that you lost to Peterlis, so I will punish you to win the top ten in the ranking competition. If you fail to complete it, the pirate group's external suppression missions for the next five years will be handed over to you."
Itt had a look of astonishment on his face, but since it was Agulas Gut who spoke personally, it was useless for Itt to say anything:
"...Oh, I see, Brother Gutt."
"Also, tell your brother Zuofist that he too must be in the top ten of the ranking competition. Don't embarrass the admiral."
"Hey~! As you command!"
Hearing that his twin brother was treated the same way as himself, Itt was happy again.
Gut shook his head and laughed. The two twin brothers who loved to play tricks on their brother, and who also loved to serve as the fleet captains of the Flying Pirates, were truly a pair of funny people, second only to Peteris.
Of course, he is definitely inferior to Monlala Pepe, who is even more heavyweight.
After It left, Gut sat alone in the dim secret room for a long time in silence.
suddenly--
He heard the shouts coming from the Sky Arena, and heard Roy's voice being transmitted across the island and throughout the Expo via the radio Den Den Mushi.
"Golden Lion vs. Rex!! The battle is about to begin!!~"
Gut's brows were furrowed and his eyes were lonely. The dim secret room lacked light, so people could not see Gut's specific expression. They could only see his figure that looked a little old for a moment.
In fact, he is not old. He is only in his forties this year, one year younger than Golden Lion. However, after learning the news of Lex's duel with the Admiral, he seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.
He is no longer the high-spirited 'Flying Knight' - Agulas Gutt, but just an old pirate who is gradually abandoned by the times.
Gutt knew——
The battle between the Golden Lion Admiral and the Young Master can only lead to one outcome -
Defeat is certain!
Even if the admiral can win, he will definitely be defeated!
Because, there is only one purpose for this duel——
Establish Lex's position above all else!
Agulhas Gutt was sitting in the secret room and heard the loud sound of fighting coming from outside.
The slashes collided in the sky, causing endless waves of air. During the domineering confrontation, electric dragons danced and the sea and sky shook.
Gut listened to these sounds quietly, but his thoughts were slowly pulled back to ten years ago.
……
-
……
"Admiral, the young master is gone."
Gut came to Shiqi's room and reported Lex's itinerary.
Shi Ji nodded:
"That Rocks guy hasn't come back yet, right?"
"Not yet. He seems to be preparing to hunt down Admiral Golden Eagle."
Shiqi was stunned for a moment, then laughed happily:
"Hahahaha! What a crazy man!"
Gutt deeply agreed that Rocks' madness was absolutely rare in the world.
After a moment of silence, Shiqi suddenly asked:
"Gutt, do you think we will be able to rule the sea like Rocks in the future, or even surpass him?"
Gut's eyes were firm, and his gaze did not change at all because of Shiqi's "bold words":
"That's inevitable!"
Shiqi laughed at himself:
"Oh, let's hope so. Let's wait for Rocks first. In this era, no one can be his opponent."
Although he was extremely unruly, when it came to Rocks, Shiki truly admired him. His strength forced a man like Golden Lion to suppress his ambitions.
Dark Overlord Rocks D. Gibek!!
Time flies, the years are like a shuttle.
Haiyuan calendar year 1484.
In the West Sea, the battle in the Valley of Gods has come to an end.
"Admiral, the loot has been collected."
Gut was covered in wounds and his clothes were tattered. He was very exhausted from the successive battles and the tedious post-war work.
However, his eyes were shining and full of boundless expectation as he looked at the golden lion.
He was expecting the Golden Lion's orders.
Now that Rocks is dead, who will take the stage in this ocean?
Gut was extremely excited. No one wanted the Golden Lion to reach the top more than him!
The golden lion laughed loudly towards the sky:
"Hahahaha! Give the order! Return to the New World and immediately inform Qinghai that a large flying fleet has been established! Recruit pirates from all sides! Fight for dominance in the New World!"
"Gut, it's time! Rule this sea!!"
The Golden Lion was full of vigor and ambition, and his ambition, which had been suppressed by Rocks for many years, finally broke out with the death of Rocks, the continuous improvement of his strength, and the continuous chaos in the sea!
Gutt looked excited and responded loudly:
"Yes!~"
In the 1486th year of the Sea Circle Calendar, with the joining of Rhine, Lily, Pepe and others, the strength of the Flying Pirates expanded to an unimaginable level.
Gut is busy every day dealing with the operation of a huge flying fleet, but he enjoys it.
If the Golden Lion is the only king in the blue sky, then Agulas Gut is the first knight under the king, the Flying Knight!
Watching the fleet expand day by day and the territory expand visibly, the reputation of the Golden Lion gradually replaced Rocks, the man who was swept into the dust of time.
One night in the year 1489 of the Haiyuan calendar.
The Golden Lion who had been out returned to the base camp. At night, he and Gut drank wine.
"Gute, Lex is out to sea."
Agulhas Gut heard:
"That's a good thing, Admiral. The young master is about to start realizing his ambitions."
But Gut didn't know why the golden lion looked so depressed.
"There can only be one king of this blue sea, Gut..."
Agulas Gut's arm holding the wine glass stiffened, and he looked at the golden lion with complicated feelings.
His eyes trembled slightly, and Gut spoke with difficulty:
"Admiral... Young Master's ascent to the top does not affect Admiral Feitian's reputation."
The Golden Lion shook his head slowly:
"You'll know later."
-
……
……
Time returns to the present.
The battle between the uncle and nephew in the arena has reached an extremely stalemate.
Logically speaking, a battle of this level would take several days and nights to determine the winner.
However, the duration of a single match in the King's Tournament is controlled within one day, so both sides of the battle often try their best, with murderous intent in every move, to resolve the battle as quickly as possible.
"Lion's Might - Wanren Mountain!!"
The golden lion was flying high in the sky, but at this height, the audience in the underground arena could not see it clearly.
He was wearing a golden kimono, holding a Sakura Ten in his hand, with a withered sword and boundless sword intent. His golden hair was like a dragon and snake, swaying freely in the wind.
Lex had no expression on his face, and his eyes were even a little cold:
"K. Rashomon!"
In an instant, the huge slash, the heavy golden slash mixed with boundless sword intent, directly sank into the void and disappeared!
The big guys watching the fight below were all surprised. Lex was serious about this.
The ability of the fruit has been brought to its fullest extent. Instead of confronting the Golden Lion head-on, it chooses to utilize the superiority of the space fruit - roaming!
