"Rayleigh!!! You can only eat one Devil Fruit. Maybe that guy named Madara wasn't using a Devil Fruit ability."

As he spoke, Roger's face suddenly lit up with excitement: "Hearing you say that, if I had the chance, I would really like to have a showdown with him. After all, you and Jabba have already fought him. Maybe we can even invite him onto the ship."

Rayleigh wasn't surprised by Roger's outlandish idea; after all, he knew Roger better than anyone.

"One word: difficult!" Rayleigh smiled faintly.

"Ha ha ha ha····"

Holy Land Marie Gioia.

This newspaper was very beneficial to the Celestial Dragons, so the Five Elders ordered that World Government personnel distribute today's newspaper to all the Celestial Dragons.

Because of the newspaper, quite a few Celestial Dragons came to my door today, but they were all chased away by Is.

Iske had no interest in joking around with them or wasting time on useless pleasantries.

The picture of Is in the newspaper showed him with a pair of wings on his back and holding a spear, so the Celestial Dragons gave him the nickname "Guardian God".

Of course, Is had no idea about the title of Guardian Deity, because none of the Celestial Dragons who came had exchanged more than five words with him before he chased them away.

backyard.

As usual, Is was training his physique, because he knew he couldn't rely too much on the power of the Devil Fruit.

Only with a strong physique and a Devil Fruit can the greatest effect be achieved.

Is was training alone, Madara Uchiha was helping Tatsumaki practice Haki, and as for Acnologia, he was lying on a rocking chair, staring blankly at the sky.

The next moment, he thought of something, quickly stood up, and said to Is, "Is, you're training your body, why don't I train with you? You all have things to do, I'm too bored by myself."

Is hesitated for a moment, but Acnologia's suggestion was indeed a good one, since he just wanted to see the advanced physical skills he had acquired.

"Since you have nothing to do, then come on over."

Upon hearing that there was something to do, Acnologia quickly ran to Is's side.

"However... let's make this clear first, we'll fight hand-to-hand combat. As for anything else, let's forget about it, because this place can't withstand any more strain," Is instructed.

Indeed. If it were a normal battle, good heavens, this area would probably be reduced to ruins in no time.

"Can I use Armament Haki?" Acnologia asked.

Is thought about it for a moment and nodded. After all, he had just given Acnologia the opportunity to demonstrate his Armament Haki.

"Okay, are you ready?"

Acnologia smiled slightly, and as he spoke, he took off his suit jacket, which was a bit of a hindrance to him.

Is leaped back a short distance, then nodded: "Let's begin!"

"Then I'm here."

As soon as Acnologia finished speaking, his figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

As his figure reappeared, he had already arrived at Is's side and kicked out directly.

The moment it was swung, it was instantly covered with Armament Haki.

Is instantly covered his hands with Armament Haki and stretched out his hands to defend himself.

"boom!"

A foot and two hands collided, instantly creating a gust of air around them.

The ground beneath Is's feet collapsed instantly, and cracks spread rapidly around the area.

Because of this attack, Madara Uchiha, who was training Tatsumaki, also stopped, and both of them turned their gazes toward Is.

"What are Is and Acnologia thinking, training in this place... This is home, you know." Madara Uchiha stared at the two of them and muttered a complaint.

Tornado glanced at Is, then at the castle beside them, and said, "This... they haven't even lived in this castle for a few days yet, are they already thinking of moving again??? Madara, why don't you go up and try to persuade them?"

"Persuade us? Forget it. We'll just watch. Anyway, the castle's collapsed, and we don't need to figure out a solution. He'll handle it himself. So, let's continue training," Madara Uchiha reminded him.

····

After acquiring advanced physical skills, Is could only sense subtle changes before, but now he could clearly feel that it was like he was a completely different person.

Whether it's strength or anything else, everything has been greatly improved.

"Bang bang bang."

Although it's supposed to be a contest of physical skills, the damage it causes to the surrounding area is still quite significant, given the immense airflow generated by the impact.

In just a short while, the backyard was already full of potholes.

"boom!"

Fists covered in Armament Haki collided here.

The two remained locked in a stalemate, a contest of Armament Haki.

Although Is is slightly inferior in physical combat, his Armament Haki is superior to Acnologia's.

Chapter 53

“Sizzle…”

Black lightning flashed continuously around Is and Acnologia, and the air currents grew stronger as a result.

The two remained locked in a stalemate for nearly a minute, when Acnologia suddenly took several steps back.

“Not bad, Is!” Acnologia said with a slight smile.

Acnologia, as expected of the man who wiped out all dragons in the original world, was able to unleash his full potential in this battle, even though he couldn't unleash his peak strength.

However, Is could also clearly sense that he was very, very strong.

Is did not respond to Acnologia's words, but continued his attack.

"Boom..."

"Boom..."

····

"Ban... why did you stop?"

While Tatsumaki was training her Observation Haki, she took off her eyepatch after Madara stopped, looking at Uchiha Madara beside her with a puzzled expression.

"Is...Is's growth rate is astonishing." Madara Uchiha said calmly, an incredulous look on his face.

"Growth rate?"

Tornado paused, then looked at Is, who was fighting.

"Really? Why didn't I feel anything? Wasn't he like this before?"

Madara Uchiha glanced at Tatsumaki and retorted, "Nonsense, if that were the case, would I still be saying it? But it's normal that you don't have that feeling, because you haven't sparred with him."

"You know, when I first sparred with him, he was just a beginner to me, but now... it hasn't been long, yet he has improved so much."

To be honest, such a rapid pace of progress truly shocked Madara Uchiha.

"Interesting! Very interesting."

Seeing Madara Uchiha's strange smile, Tatsumaki was speechless: "It's not you, what are you so happy about?"

"You have no idea about what men do. Keep training."

Holy Land Marie Joa, Pangu City.

"Tap Tat Tat..."

A continuous sound of footsteps echoed in the corridor.

"Click click click..."

As the gate opened, a magnificent and grand hall appeared before the nameless old man's eyes.

At the very top of the solemn hall stood the Void Throne, its front adorned with numerous swords and daggers.

Seated atop the Empty Throne is none other than Im, the leader of the Celestial Dragons, the mastermind behind the World Government, and the master of the Empty Throne.

She was resting with her eyes closed when she heard the door being pushed open. She slowly opened her sharp, eagle-like eyes.

Five elderly men stood in a row, kneeling on one knee.

"The Five Elders have come to pay homage, Lord Im!"

The loud sound resounded throughout the entire hall.

Im slowly rose and walked down the steps with deliberate steps.

What brings you here?

Although Im's voice was not loud, the five elders heard it clearly.

"Besides reporting on the recent situation, we also want to report on our internal affairs," the bald old man said.

"You mean... Bernard Is?" Im asked.

The Five Elders weren't surprised when Im mentioned the name, after all, Bernard Is had only recently appeared in the newspapers.

"It seems that Lord Im already knows."

“You shouldn’t involve the Celestial Dragons and cause them trouble,” Im said coldly.

"I apologize, Lord Im. We were indeed hasty in this matter. We simply wanted to let those pirates know that our World Government isn't just about the Navy's capabilities; we Celestial Dragons are just as formidable," the old man with the sword explained.

“Yes, our starting point is also for the Celestial Dragons,” the bald old man added.

A cold glint flashed in Im's eyes: "Say what you have to say."

"Yes, Lord Im, what was reported in the newspapers is not false, but true. There is a special person among the Celestial Dragons."

"Whether it was the Roger Pirates with a bounty of over 20 billion that we encountered before, or the Rocks Pirates executives who attacked the Holy Land Mary Geoise this time, Bernard Is has created miracles."

"Therefore, we believe that as long as we focus on nurturing him, he can take up the banner of the Celestial Dragons, join our power structure, and serve Lord Im," the long-haired, white-haired old man said slowly and deliberately.

"Isn't what you're doing a bit too abrupt?" Im asked rhetorically.

"Lord Im, although he hasn't yet shown much promise, he is still one of our Celestial Dragons. While there are many more talented individuals outside of us, those who are not of our kind are bound to have different hearts!"
