His golden hair danced in the wind, and blood splattered everywhere.
This time, Golden Lion fell until he almost fell into the sea. Only then did he forcefully stabilize his body.
He was not the same person as he was when he met Luffy a decade later, but his opponent was not the inexperienced protagonist who had cheated everywhere.
Kaido's fist and Lo Chen's sword were both existences that could cause fatal injuries to him.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
The Golden Lion coughed loudly. Kaido's punch had severely injured the Golden Lion, and the battle with Lo Chen had drained him of his stamina.
"I didn't expect that I would end up in such a state!"
The Golden Lion was furious, but also depressed.
Facing these two people, he felt like he was the setting sun in the west, and they were the sun in the sky. One was falling, the other was rising. They could not be compared at all.
He suddenly remembered White Beard's mockery before he left, and realized that the old man already knew his fate.
For a moment, all kinds of thoughts flooded his mind, leaving him in a daze.
"Hey, old man, do you still want to subdue me?"
Kaido stood in the water, looking up at the sky and laughing coldly.
"Kaido!"
The light in the Golden Lion's eyes gathered. He knew that in his current state, he could no longer subdue the two people in front of him with his strength. He sighed in his heart and thought of retreating.
"We'll meet again someday!"
He did not want to say more, and he did not want to face these two people again.
"Shiki!"
Suddenly, a light voice sounded in his ears.
The Golden Lion looked up and saw Lo Chen.
Lo Chen did not move, still standing far away in the sky. He did not open his mouth, but used a special ability to let the voice ring in his ears.
"It's impossible for you to fight for supremacy!"
"With your strength, I think this battle will make you very clear about your position in the world. Even I did not use my full strength."
"But."
"I, Lo Chen, have indeed sought your guidance in the past. Shiki, you can be considered half a teacher to me. It was not my intention to meet you on the battlefield."
"So, I want to ask you a question."
At this point, Lo Chen could clearly see the anger in the Golden Lion's eyes, but this ambitious and ruthless character did not flare up.
His missing legs and declining physical strength made him understand that in front of these two people, he would only be making a fool of himself.
He lowered his chin slightly and decided to listen to what Lo Chen had to say.
"If I can restore your body, extend your lifespan, and restore your strength …"
"Are you willing to help me reach the highest peak in this world?"
These two short sentences made the Golden Lion's eyes widen. Its heart was filled with shock and horror.
"Don't be in a hurry to answer. Shiki, you can think about it carefully. Once you've made up your mind, come find me."
"I believe that with your strength, it should be easy for you to find out where I am."
These words were compressed into lines by Lo Chen's inner energy and transmitted into the Golden Lion's ears.
These short sentences made the Golden Lion's heart tremble violently. At this moment, he could not even maintain his composure. He felt his hands trembling.
This was too shocking and shocking for him.
If his legs could recover and stop aging, his strength would naturally return to its peak. It was even possible for him to improve further.
It was easy to go from simple to extravagant, but it was much more difficult to go from extravagant to simple.
In the past, he was rich and had many followers when he raised his arm. But now, he could be described as being in a sorry state twice.
Was he willing? Of course not!
To the Golden Lion, this was a huge temptation!
"Lo Chen, I can put aside our hatred for now. Now, let me ask you!"
At this moment, Kaido suddenly yelled.
"Oh?"
Lo Chen raised his eyebrows and listened to what Kaido wanted to say.
"Although this old man is weak, he is a cunning old fox. After all, he was once a legendary figure!"
"Are you interested in getting rid of him with me?"
The meaning of this sentence was extremely clear. The Golden Lion's gaze sharpened again.
He naturally understood the meaning of Lo Chen's words. They were the same as him. They both wanted to borrow each other's strength to reach the peak. The only difference was the position of master and subordinate.
But this guy, Kaido, already had the intention to kill him.
This made him furious, but at the same time, he felt extremely sullen.
At this moment, Kaido's question made Lo Chen's position suddenly important.
Everyone's gaze was on him. They all knew that if Lo Chen nodded. With the strength of both of them, there was a high possibility that the Golden Lion would be left behind.
"Sorry, I'm not interested."
However, after waiting for a long time, Lo Chen turned around and returned to his ship.
Such an action undoubtedly caused many people to be stunned and surprised. Only the Golden Lion secretly let out a sigh of relief, understanding in his heart.
"Lo Chen."
The Golden Lion secretly muttered this name. He knew that he owed Kaido a huge favor.
If Lo Chen did not leave, he would definitely die today!
"Hmph! If you don't do it, I'll do it myself. "
"He's just a disabled old man. He has long lost the value of living in this world!"
Kaido said angrily.
With a loud roar, he shot out from the sea again and rushed towards the Golden Lion.
The latter took a deep breath and quickly responded.
Lo Chen, on the other hand, showed no interest in this battle. He ordered the USS Logan to leave quickly.
"Captain, why don't you take the opportunity to kill the Golden Lion today? That old man is very difficult to deal with!"
Trensu said in a low voice.
To them, the most frightening thing about the Golden Lion was not his strength, but his decades of experience and methods.
The word "ruthless" was not something that could be earned by strength alone. He also had methods that made people tremble in fear.
"He will come for me again."
Faced with the crowd's questions, Lo Chen only smiled mysteriously.
He was very sure of this answer. The only one left, and the severely injured Kaido at that, would not be able to do anything to the Golden Lion.
The two severely injured fellows would at most be like dogs biting each other. They would not be able to do anything to each other.
As for the Golden Lion, he was very ambitious but had no strength. He originally had no hope and could only choose to destroy the East Sea to announce his strength to the world. This was a pale and powerless whitewash, but it was destroyed by Luffy.
However, at this moment, he gave him hope.
As long as this hope existed, the Golden Lion would not be able to sleep. Every day, he would think about it and become his inner demon.
This great pirate who once roamed the four seas would definitely come for him. Lo Chen was very sure!
"Meet up with the Young Lord and the others, and then return to Angel Island!"
"We should also come up with a detailed plan."
Lo Chen turned his head and said to the crowd with a smile on his face.
"Fame, strength, all of it."
"Now, it's time for us to rise!"
The expansion of the pirate group and the strengthening of their forces all needed a detailed plan.
And now, it's time to make this plan.
