Then You’re Really Lucky
At this moment, the Lion Ape once again transformed into the 15-meter-tall beast form. Its golden hair stained with blood became extremely long and fluttered in the wind like golden-red flames.
Thud!
Its feet stepped on the ground, cracking the ground. At this time, it did not rush, but it breathed in and out.
The air beam formed by the breath went straight for the civilians.
“Zhanbo.”
At this moment, a golden slash was faster than the Air Beam. It caught up with the Air Beam and dispersed it before flying straight into the sky.
Chi!
Blood spurted out from the back of the Lion Ape.
After Kuro slashed it, he floated in front of it and spat out the cigar head, his eyes serious.
He did not understand, very much.
A Lion Ape, whether it is a dead vengeful spirit seeking revenge or not, this kind of willpower should not appear in it.
‘Hatred?’
The mayor of Funny Town only said that this guy loved musicals and was executed by Old K. In this world, such hatred alone cannot produce strong willpower.
There are many strong people in today’s world with strong willpower, but if you want to classify them, hatred can only be regarded as medium.
What is truly powerful is the will of dreams and ambition.
But in Kuro’s opinion, the Lion Ape should have died a long time ago. Its life force was so weak that it was like a candle in the wind, but its willpower supported it to continue moving.
That kind of willpower even shocked him.
The last one that shocked him was Golden Lion who pulled out the rudder.
He didn’t think much of Whitebeard’s death, because it was a certain death.
But now, this Lion Ape made Kuro experience the shock of facing the Golden Lion.
“For what? …”
Kuro looked at the Lion Ape that was unwilling to give up and sucked in the air again. His veins were exposed. “Why are you still standing!”
Shua!
In response, a huge claw attacked Kuro.
“It’s endless.”
Kuro cursed and swung his sword, cutting the arm of the Lion Ape, causing a bloody mist to burst out. At this time, it stretched out another claw and continued to swing.
Kuro was about to continue slashing when he suddenly saw the Lion Ape open its mouth and spit out a breath, passing by him and going straight to the rear.
“You bastard!”
His pupils shrank and he subconsciously wanted to slash backward. Just now, he was shocked by the willpower of the Lion Ape, causing his mind to be a little erratic and it seized the opportunity.
But soon, he was stunned, because this attack was not facing the civilians at the rear, but directly hit the high wall of the palace at the end of the street.
It’s not that I didn’t aim. This guy… seems to have changed his goal.
BOOM!!!
The wall collapsed under this blow, revealing a huge gap.
“So, so scary!”
Old K sat on the ground and stared blankly at the gap in front of him. The flying gravel cut his cheek and the pain made him react. He crawled back on his hands and feet.
“Protect me, protect me quickly! I haven’t held the ceremony to become king, I don’t want to die!”
Old K shouted loudly. At this time, the guards also reacted and appeared in front of him with shields and surrounded him. They moved back little by little and retreated from the other side of the city wall. They were quickly taken out of the palace and fled in panic towards the street.
Apart from the king, there were also those musicals in colorful clothes scattered from the entrance of the palace.
“Kaz! Let them gather together!” Kuro shouted.
With the relentless attitude of the Lion Ape, if they really spread out and can’t get rid of it immediately, there will definitely be casualties.
“I don’t care what your purpose is.”
Kuro gritted his teeth and said, “Now that I’m here and I can let you hurt someone, my name will not be Lucilu Kuro in the future!”
In addition to his philosophy of doing things, he is also stubborn now. So what if his will is strong? There are many people with strong will. If he took a detour because of this, the world would have been in chaos long ago.
“Protect the people!”
Kaz quickly came to the front of the Lion Ape with Marines and showed a blocking posture. “Everyone come to my rear, don’t run around!”
As if they had a backbone, those who came out of the palace all gathered behind the people.
“Let me go to the end, I am the king!” Old K shouted.
The surrounding people made way for Old K to reach the center, while the guards raised their shields and surrounded Old K. Outside were the civilians.
This scene made Kuro frown, but before he could continue speaking, the Lion Ape attacked again.
“Forget it, I’ll deal with you completely.”
Kuro raised Autumn Water horizontally and wiped the blade with two fingers. A ball of golden light enveloped the blade. He did not even look at the Lion Ape’s attack and just cut forward. The golden light was like the moon and brushed against the Lion Ape’s body.
This ball of light made the Lion Ape subconsciously close his eyes.
However, it did not feel the pain in its body. The light seemed to be really light and it did not hurt.
The Lion Ape opened his eyes and saw Kuro swinging his knife and said lightly, “It’s over.”
Chi chi chi!
The body of the Lion Ape stiffened, and its whole body was popping like beans. A large number of wounds appeared on its body, and blood oozed out of its body and soaked into its hair, completely dyeing it blood-red.
Bang!
This time, the Lion Ape could not take it anymore and fell head-on, hitting its head on the ground. Its 15-meter-tall body first transformed into a normal form of 10 meters, and finally began to shrink, turning into a lion with beautiful golden fur.
“He’s not human…”
Kuro said in surprise, “Animals?”
“Huff… Huff…”
The lion lay on the ground and breathed weakly, but it was not dead. Its eyes were looking straight at those people, and its scarlet eyes had faded and become cloudy.
Kuro spat and slid down, ready to kill this difficult lion with one strike.
“Eh? Aren’t you a lion?”
Suddenly, Old K pointed at it and shouted, “I remember you!”
These words made Kuro pause and look at Old K with a puzzled expression.
“Ah… Colonel Kuro, I know this lion.”
Old K said, “I met this lion a year ago. It blocked my way. At that time, I saw that its fur was good and wanted to raise it, but it ran away. Can you not kill it? I finally met it. I want to catch it and raise it in my palace.”
“Your Highness, this lion can become a monster!” An official persuaded.
“Yes, it can turn into a monster…”
Old K thought for a moment and said, “Then kill it and peel off its skin. Before the ceremony, sew a beautiful dress to add some luster to my coronation ceremony!”
“Then you’re really lucky…”
Kuro asked, “Why did you encounter it then?”
Hearing this, Old K showed a trace of pride on his face. “A year ago, I executed a traitor who didn’t listen to my orders. I said that kabuki is not allowed in the country, and those kabuki only need to perform for me in the palace. In the end, I heard that someone performed in private, but I couldn’t catch him, so I asked a town to invite him over, and then I executed him in that town.”
Hearing this, Kuro was silent for a while. He glanced at the motionless lion and said to Old K, “Then you are really lucky…”
