At the same time, I traveled through time and space, I dominated the heavens and the worlds

A cool breeze came from nowhere and blew away the gloomy and depressing air between heaven and earth.

As a result, the thick clouds around gradually dissipated.

The sky and the earth suddenly became vast, and the setting sun slanted through the sparse white clouds and spread across the world.

The sky, which had originally seemed to have no end, finally showed signs of clearing up and the sun appearing. There was only a stone ladder leading directly to the only thick cloud layer.

Lin Bei stood at the edge of the ladder and looked down. He saw a vague figure running towards the ladder in the vast reed field below.

Lin Bei recognized it as Jiang Ziya at a glance. He curled his lips silently, stepped onto the last step of the ladder, and slowly closed his eyes.
-
In the new world, newcomer Lin Bei felt his consciousness was falling.

Suddenly, a sense of familiarity came over me.

Lin Bei frowned slightly, feeling as if he had been to this world before.

But, it seems something is different.

Just as Lin Bei regained consciousness, he heard noisy footsteps, accompanied by countless shouts and cries of fighting.

Then, a sneer came from in front of him. The voice was very familiar, he had definitely heard it somewhere.

"Since you dare to challenge me, it means you are ready to fight."

As the sound of swords being unsheathed came, shouts of "Kill him" were heard all around.

Lin Bei suddenly opened his eyes and found himself standing in a crowd, surrounded by people waving and shouting excitedly. In the middle of the crowd, a samurai with green algae hair held a samurai sword in his mouth, one in each hand.

Three sword style, green algae head, Zoro?

Lin Bei was slightly surprised. Another One Piece world? No, he had already met a pirate named Lin Bei in the mysterious space. How could there be two identical worlds?
Looking at the surrounding environment again, I feel that this place is becoming more and more familiar.

There were lush trees all around, but the air was filled with thick moisture. Lin Bei looked carefully and was surprised to find that the ground was not soil, but tree roots.

Looking at Zoro in the open space again, his outfit was completely different from what he remembered, and Lin Bei finally reacted.

He is now on the world's largest mangrove, the "Archiman Mangrove". The mangrove is so huge that it forms the Shambaudet Islands. The roots of the mangrove can secrete a natural resin, and air can be injected into the resin to form bubbles.

To put it simply, the Chambord Islands are a city made up of tree roots and bubbles.

This is two years after the top war in the One Piece world?

But the other him in the One Piece world has already changed the trajectory of the world line. The Celestial Dragons were wiped out, and Whitebeard and Ace were rescued. Why does it seem that the timeline has not changed now?
After the Battle of Marineford, Luffy and his crew encountered the Celestial Dragons incident in the Sabaody Islands and were blown to all parts of the world by Tyrant Bear. Luffy and his companions each trained in stealth for two years. Two years later, they reunited in the Sabaody Islands and boarded the Sunny again.

Just as Lin Bei was reviewing the original plot, a strange memory suddenly emerged in his mind.

Then his expression became a little complicated. He had traveled to another world that he had traveled to before.

The original world was changed due to the intervention of another him, and the navy and the Celestial Dragons were defeated and became the laughing stock of the world.

After that, that self disappeared, and then he came and accepted Luffy's invitation to board the Sunny.

As they sailed, a new crisis arose.

Indeed, Lin Bei killed a group of Tianlong people, but there were always new Tianlong people appearing.

Now that Akainu is gone, there will be new radical representatives who will take the position of admiral of the navy.

Whitebeard and Ace were ultimately unable to escape their fate and died in a desperate battle with the navy, but rumors spread among the navy that Whitebeard and Ace were killed by a black shadow that suddenly appeared.

That black shadow looked very much like Blackbeard who had died in the Battle of Marineford.

Afterwards, Luffy and his crew entered the Sabaody Islands, where they briefly fought with other Nova Pirates and encountered new Celestial Dragons.

After they beat up the Celestial Dragons who oppressed civilians, they were chased by the navy. The world line was taken back and they were slapped away by Tyrant Bear. Luffy told his friends through the newspaper that they would meet in front of the Sunny in the Sabaody Archipelago in two years.

As his memories came back, Lin Bei held his forehead and sighed.

What's all this about?

There is no way to kill all the Celestial Dragons, right? After killing one batch after another, he dug out from his memory that this new generation of Celestial Dragons seemed to be the descendants of the group of people he killed before, who were left behind in other places. It took the World Government a long time to find them.

It feels like if they don't get it back, they will have no king to kneel down to.

With enormous power in the hands of these descendants, it would be easy for anyone to become arrogant. In just a few months, incidents of Celestial Dragons oppressing civilians broke out in various places.

The world government whitewashed the situation and suppressed the heat of the incident, and the world once again fell into dire straits.

Lin Bei narrowed his eyes, and couldn't help thinking to himself, well, since he is here again, it means that the world needs him.

He needs to do another major reshuffle.

He is also needed to investigate who killed Whitebeard and Ace.

Is it the dead Blackbeard, or the new heir to the Dark-Dark Fruit?

Lin Bei touched his chin, sneered, and thought to himself: "It seems that this world is going to be fun. It's a good time to collect some new devil fruits."

Just as Lin Bei was recalling the past, Zoro had already been fighting with other pirates in the open space among the crowd. With Zoro's strength, it was more than enough to deal with these pirates.

But as the saying goes, it's easy to dodge a spear but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark. In the crowd, a pirate's accomplice took out a pistol and pointed it at Zoro.

Just as the pirate was feeling smug and was about to shoot, a black shadow suddenly flashed before his eyes.

The pirate was stunned for a moment, then he looked up with an angry expression and glared at him, cursing in a low voice.

"Don't get in the way here, get out of here right now, you want to die, don't you?!"

Lin Bei looked at the pirate in front of him with a faint smile, slowly stretched out his hand, and his fingers gently fell on the pistol in his hand.

The next second, black liquid crawled out along Lin Bei's fingers and quickly rushed towards the pistol, swallowing up the pistol at a speed that was difficult to capture with the naked eye.

When the pirate realized that the pistol in his hand was gone, he looked down at his empty right hand in a daze, then looked up at Lin Bei in disbelief.

Lin Bei shrugged, then spoke with a faint smile.

"If you want to launch a sneak attack, it depends on whether you have the ability to do so."

The pirate suddenly came to his senses. He screamed and staggered back two steps. He pointed at Lin Bei and shouted: "Fruit ability user, you are a devil fruit ability user! You, you have the Dark Dark Fruit, are you the one who killed Whitebeard?"

This groundless accusation immediately attracted the attention of all the pirates around. Their eyes fell on Lin Bei and their expressions became unfriendly.

You know, Whitebeard's influence covers the entire ocean, and everyone even thinks that Whitebeard is the most likely person to find the one piece. But Whitebeard died.

The person who killed him was only known to be the user of the Dark-Dark Fruit.

This rumor was engraved in the hearts of all pirates. They were all guessing and searching for the whereabouts of the person who had the ability to kill Whitebeard.

Now someone actually says it's right here?
The pirates all stared at Lin Bei, and some even subconsciously reached for their weapons at their waists.

Lin Bei glanced around calmly. These pirates looked ferocious and difficult to deal with, but in Lin Bei's eyes, they were just small minions who were not worthy of being in the spotlight.

He didn't even have to use his hands. If anyone dared to attack him, they would be killed by the rebound of the fire shield.

Just as Lin Bei was being watched with eager eyes, a pair of unhurried footsteps came towards him.

"Hey, I'm lucky to meet you. Come on, I'll take you to find the Sunny."

The one walking towards Lin Bei was naturally Zoro.

Zoro solved the problem easily and turned around to see Lin Bei surrounded by people. After not seeing him for two years, Zoro was somewhat excited. After sheathing his sword, he immediately came over to say hello.

Lin Bei turned his head to look at Sauron, waved his hands with a smile: "You lead the way? After two years, you are still so confident. I have followed you all the way. Do you know that the further you walk, the farther you are from the Sunny?"

Zoro's face froze and he looked away in embarrassment: "Really? Maybe we just took the wrong path for a moment. Then you lead the way. Let's go. Don't waste time here. Luffy and the others may have already boarded the ship."

Lin Bei nodded slightly, and was about to leave, but the pirates around him refused to let him go.

The pirates pulled out their weapons, pointed them at Lin Bei, and spoke with evil grins.

"Hey, hey, hey, how could we let you go? You are Lin Bei, right? The bounty is 70 million. You are the user of the Dark-Dark Fruit. I didn't expect that you were the one who killed Whitebeard. Do you know how much the Whitebeard Pirates offered for you? It's 2 billion. Do you think we will let you go?"

Lin Bei paused and glanced at the pirates around him.

There were more than sixty pirates around who were eyeing him covetously. Lin Bei knew without thinking that these pirates thought that they could capture him through the human wave tactic because they had more people.

Not to mention that he was framed, these pirates who were as ordinary as ants, did they really think that they could defeat him with human wave tactics?

This is ridiculous.

Lin Bei curled his lips slightly and laughed softly.

This smile seemed to anger the pirates. So what if they were fruit ability users? They were numerous and all experienced pirates. Their chances of winning were not low!

The pirates gritted their teeth, and then the leader waved his arms and shouted angrily: "Catch him!"

The next second, all the pirates rushed towards Lin Bei.

Seeing this, Zoro stood there with his arms folded. He tilted his head calmly: "You need help?"

Lin Bei shook his head, then raised his hand, and black liquid surged out from under his feet, along the tree roots, and instantly rushed in all directions.

The black liquid appeared so quickly that the pirates didn't even notice it before their feet were all wrapped in it.

By the time they reacted, the black liquid had already climbed up to their knees and was still climbing up, as if it was going to swallow them up.

The pirates immediately screamed and were forced to stay where they were, struggling continuously.

Lin Bei put his hands behind his back and looked at the scene in front of him calmly, watching the pirates go from being shocked and angry at first to slowly showing despair.

The black liquid continued to climb and soon reached the pirates' waists and chests. Some pirates sensed the danger and used knives to cut the black liquid off their bodies.

But when the blade fell on the black liquid, it was like cutting into water and sinking into it. All the force was absorbed by the black liquid and it didn't cause any effect at all.

Soon, the black liquid climbed up to the heads of all the pirates. The pirates who had just attacked Lin Bei all turned into black sculptures and stood still.

In the world of pirates, fighting and killing is very normal. There were many pirates watching around. When they saw this scene, they knew that these sixty pirates would not survive, and they couldn't help but secretly feel lucky that they didn't join in the action.

When the black liquid returned to the ground and arrived at Lin Bei's feet, all sixty pirates around him disappeared completely.

For a moment, the area within a radius of hundreds of meters, centered on Lin Bei, fell into dead silence.

Everyone looked at this scene in disbelief, as if they couldn't believe that so many people disappeared in an instant.

Lin Bei glanced at the pirates around him calmly and said, "Let me put this aside. I am Lin Bei from the Straw Hat Pirates. I am indeed a user of special abilities, but not a user of the Dark-Dark Fruit. Next time someone frames Whitebeard's death on me, this will be the fate of a framer."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone around felt a chill on their backs and nodded hurriedly, not daring to provoke Lin Bei anymore.

Lin Bei turned his head to look at Sauron and smiled faintly: "Let's go?"

Zoro looked at Lin Bei with an inquiring expression. He nodded, followed Lin Bei's steps, and after leaving the open space, he spoke thoughtfully.

"I didn't expect that you've changed so much in two years. You've become so powerful, and even become a devil fruit user?"

Lin Bei took Zoro in the opposite direction. The direction Zoro wanted to go just now was completely different from Tree No. 17 where the Sunny was located.

He smiled faintly and explained: "It can't be considered a Devil Fruit user. Anyway, just think of it as a superpower. I can't explain it clearly at the moment."

Zoro is not the kind of person who is entangled. Besides, Lin Bei is a partner he recognizes and is allowed to board the ship, so he will not doubt his partner but trust him wholeheartedly.

Zoro stroked the hilt of the sword, nodded slightly, and did not ask any further questions.

The two were in tree number 41. They hurried back and finally reached tree number 17.

During this period, Lin Bei also spent a lot of time and energy, mainly to keep an eye on Zoro. This guy's lack of direction was so terrible that he would get lost if he wasn't watched carefully.

In order to keep an eye on Zoro, Lin Bei also used the power of the Shadow King to hide a bit of his black liquid in Zoro's shadow to locate his position.

If it weren't for this trick, Zoro would probably be lost forever.

After arriving at No. 17, Lin Bei led Sauron to continue moving forward. When they reached a dense and tall forest, Lin Bei looked up into the distance.

There was a ship anchored at the edge of the island, that was the Sunny.

Lin Bei breathed a sigh of relief. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and thought that they had finally arrived. He never wanted to act alone with Zoro again. Just keeping an eye on him took up all his energy.

Lin Bei was just about to turn around and tell Zoro to stay on the boat and not move, when suddenly there was a tremor from the tree roots under his feet.

Lin Bei and Sauron staggered together and frowned subconsciously.

Lin Bei looked up and around, and suddenly found that something seemed to be running towards them in the woods not far away. (End of this chapter)
