One Piece: Ascending the Divine Path

"Mom's attack!"

The massive blade came crashing down.

As always, Knight had no intention of engaging Charlotte Linlin in close combat, and in an instant, he had already created distance again.

He raised Yama and slashed downwards, "Heavenly Sword."

They just use these two moves over and over, mainly relying on repeating a single combat technique.

But what was that saying again?

Having a wheelchair but not using it? Then you deserve to never rank up.

"asshole!!"

Charlotte Linlin had never felt so frustrated in her life.

Since the start of the war, neither side has inflicted any damage on the other.

That bastard Waldo couldn't hurt her at all, but she couldn't even touch Waldo either.

The main strategy is for each side to do their own thing.

But Waldo had already achieved his goal; he had rescued his men and even severely injured Cracker.

Doesn't that make me look like the biggest idiot?

Charlotte Linlin cleaved the incoming giant sword to pieces with a single strike, then slapped Zeus's head, sending bolts of lightning hurtling towards Knight once more.

Knight repeated his previous moves, creating a spherical shield for defense, enhanced with dual-color Haki, so Zeus's lightning couldn't break through the defense at all.

There's no way around it; the projected material is essentially a manifestation of a dream, and it doesn't conduct electricity.

Instead, Knight beckoned with his finger, and an invisible, enormous arm materialized behind Charlotte Linlin's head, slamming heavily into her back as she swung her sword.

Seriously, he relies too much on his physical body, and his Observation Haki isn't very strong either, making him quite slow. No wonder Franky rode his motorcycle right up to his face and Jinbe punched him away.

"Wow!"

Charlotte Linlin was punched off Zeus's back and sent flying.

"Mother!"

Prometheus, the sun, eager to protect his mother, quickly flew over and caught her, not forgetting to yell at her, "Zeus! You fool, protect your mother!"

"sorry……"

Zeus, who was timid by nature, apologized softly in a low voice.

Knight raised an eyebrow. "Homies bullying too? This is a One Piece set, you know."

"Watch me atone for my sins!"

Zeus suddenly flew high into the sky, and in the next instant he had expanded into a huge dark cloud.

"oh!"

Knight looked up, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

While its ability to imbue various natural substances with life may not be strong enough for direct combat, its functionality is certainly top-notch.

Charlotte Linlin can even give life to the sea, making her a nemesis of ability users.

"Take this, you bastard!"

Zeus roared and used all his power in one breath. In the next instant, lightning bolts rained down on Knight once again.

"Idiot! What's the point of such a move!"

Prometheus couldn't help but curse.

If the Homie lightning that Mom made didn't work, what can ordinary lightning do?

Sure enough, these lightning bolts couldn't even touch Knight.

Instead, Knight swung his sword and cleaved Zeus in two.

"That won't work on me!"

Zeus roared, "I am the embodiment of the thundercloud!"

Knight wasn't too disappointed; ordinary attacks were indeed useless against this guy—only attacks that could touch his soul—

Ok?

Knight paused for a moment.

soul?

He narrowed his eyes slightly.

If I remember correctly, Zeus in the original story also slept, right?

Since that's the case—

Knight shot up and headed straight for Zeus.

"Wow!"

Zeus was startled when he saw Knight charging towards him.

But it quickly realized that the guy's attacks were ineffective against it!

"I'm not afraid of you!"

Timid Yun shouted triumphantly.

As a result, Knight cleaved it into cloud fragments with a few backhand sword strikes.

It was at this moment that Knight activated his dream-entering ability.

Zeus, who had been laughing arrogantly, suddenly fell silent and lost consciousness.

Its enormous body visibly shrank, shrinking back to the size of a small white cloud, only a few tens of centimeters in diameter.

Knight reached out and grabbed the cloud.

A strange smile appeared on Knight's lips. "Zeus, I've subdued him."

This guy is actually quite useful.

Bakingom is having trouble with energy.

"What?"

Prometheus exclaimed in disbelief, "Zeus has been captured?"

How is that possible!

Ordinary attacks should have no effect on either of them!

It was afraid of water, but Zeus didn't seem to have any obvious weaknesses!

"Waldo—"

Charlotte Linlin was equally incredulous. "What on earth did you do?"

Why did Zeus lose consciousness?

"It seems,"

Knight looked down at Charlotte Linlin, his smile widening. "So your abilities are nothing special, Charlotte Linlin."

The Homies were completely restrained by themselves.

Hmm, if I have the chance in the future, I must keep Charlotte Linlin captive and have her produce all sorts of Homies.

After all, although the Homies have some connection with Charlotte Linlin, it's not much; otherwise, Zeus wouldn't have been kidnapped by Nami in the original story.

"Waldo!!!"

Charlotte Linlin roared in fury, "Awesome Kingdom!"

Charlotte Linlin was clearly furious when her Homie, created with her own soul, was taken away. She swung her greatsword wildly, unleashing wave after wave of massive sword attacks.

But with such a frenzied attack, there's no way he could possibly touch Knight.

While calmly dodging, Knight slightly raised his hand, and an invisible giant fist, like a heavy hammer, slammed hard onto Charlotte Linlin's head.

The woman fell from the sky again, and even Prometheus couldn't hold her up, crashing heavily to the ground with her.

Knight stood in the sky, holding Yama in one hand and Zeus in the other. His eyes suddenly went vacant for a moment.

"You've got it? But it's not complete? Oh well, that's fine then."

Knight muttered something to himself.

"It's time to say goodbye."

"You're not going anywhere!!"

Still unharmed, Charlotte Linlin soared into the sky atop Prometheus's back, yelling, "Waldo! I'm going to kill you!"

"You can't do anything, Charlotte Linlin."

Knight simply said calmly, "Listen up, if you mess with us again, I'll personally go to Whole Cake Island. You'd better pray that your kids are as resilient as you and as good at hiding as Katakuri."

"Go to hell!"

The broadsword slashed through the sky, but missed its target entirely.

Knight had already vanished into the sky as a black streak.

"asshole!!"

Charlotte Linlin, like a dying beast, had lost all reason and, driven by rage, propelled Prometheus to give chase.

But her speed was just too slow.

……

Stusi followed behind the group, watching them walk through the streets and alleys, and finally enter the shop that was already deserted.

Soon, the group had brought out some huge pieces of equipment.

The woman cursed and swore, "You damn fool! You've been talking about it for a week, and you're still not quite there!"

Stussy understood instantly.

Because it was uncertain when Lingling would arrive, preparations were made in advance, and only a portion of the equipment was transported.

If Lingling hadn't arrived in time, then these remaining pieces of equipment would have been the buttons to entice the woman to keep leaving.

Feld is a master at manipulating people.

"Fine, let's leave it at that."

Stussy heard the woman say, "I will immediately inform Lord Night King to prepare for retreat."

Then, Stussy saw the woman's body suddenly go limp and fall to the ground, and a pirate quickly caught her.

Lord Night King? Does that refer to Waldo?

And wasn't he supposed to be notified? How did he collapse?

Stussy didn't quite understand.

Did Lingling inflict the injury on this woman without her noticing? And now the injury has recurred?

Having made this guess, Stussy knew that, in any case, the opportunity was now!

Weebull was seriously injured and is still lying on the ground.

The other pirates are insignificant; they're just small fry.

The only one who might still be able to resist is the woman herself. After all, she was once a member of the Rocks Pirates, but now she herself has fallen into a deep sleep!

Waldo hasn't received the news yet; he's still locked in a fierce battle with Lingling!

There has never been a better time!

The next instant, she stomped her feet on the ground at high speed, and her body shot out like a phantom.

shave!

The pirates, who were organizing their equipment, had no idea what was happening when a dark figure appeared among them.

Finger gun!

Without hesitation, Stussy thrust his slender fingers, wrapped in dark Armament Hide, directly into the heart of the still unconscious Baginom.

"Mom!"

Weebull, lying on a stretcher made of a door panel, cried out in alarm.

But it was too late; he couldn't stop it!

This is how it should be.

But damn, love can create miracles!

Weevil instinctively pushed with his right hand, and an invisible wave surged forth.

He was already seriously injured, so the power of this shockwave could only be described as weak.

But that's enough!

Caught off guard, Stussy was blown off balance by the sudden gust of wind.

But she was, after all, a member of CP0, and her strength was by no means weak; she quickly regained her footing.

Completely ignoring Weevil, the second finger gun was already fired.

But she froze.

The slender fingers stopped a few centimeters from Bakingom's heart.

I can't move!

Something has caught me!

"What are you doing?"

An indifferent voice came from above.

Stussy looked up in disbelief, only to find Waldo floating above him.

How could it be so fast!

The loud noise from his fight with Lingling is still ringing out from a second ago!

"grown ups!"

All the pirates immediately bowed their heads respectfully.

"Hmm!"

Bagingom suddenly opened his eyes and was startled to see the person in front of him wearing a black robe and a mask. "Who is this guy?!"

"Yes, I'm curious too. Who exactly are you?"

Knight gave a wry smile. "Let's see how things go."

An invisible hand seized everyone, and along with the experimental equipment, it did so as well.

Then, in the next moment, everyone shot into the sky like shooting stars going against the current, and disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

This is the scene that Charlotte Linlin, who arrived late, witnessed.

"Waldo!!"

She could only vent all her anger in this roar.

In the sky.

After getting away from the island, Knight finally turned his attention to the mysterious assassin.

It shouldn't be someone from the World Government. If the government had discovered Bakingum's location, the Navy should have known by now. It doesn't involve any government secrets.

But this guy is using a finger gun.

Many people on the high seas can use moves like Shave and Moonwalk, but moves like Finger Pistol are basically unused by anyone except the Navy and CP.

"Let me see who you are."

With a hint of curiosity, Knight beckoned with his finger.

Then the black robe and mask were removed at the same time.

The stunningly beautiful woman with blonde hair and blue eyes revealed her true appearance to everyone.

"What?!"

Upon learning from the pirates that he had almost been killed, Baginam couldn't help but exclaim in shock the moment he saw Stussy clearly, "How could it be you?!"

After the initial shock came fury: "You want to kill me? You actually want to kill me!!"

Barkingom couldn't understand why this woman, who was born because of him, would want to kill him!

"Yes, Stussy!"

A pirate recognized her and exclaimed excitedly, "The Queen of the Pleasure District! So beautiful!"

"But why would she want to kill Miss Bakkin?"

Stussy did not react.

What other reaction could there be?

They're doomed.

"I see,"

Knight now fully understood the whole story. "So, Miss. Bakkin, the person you contacted is her, right?"

How did you know?

Bagingom was quite taken aback.

She never revealed this.

"Stusi,"

Knight watched this younger version of Baginam with great interest, and could only sigh that time waits for no one.

"Is it because you're afraid Miss Bakkin will reveal that you're her clone?"

"What?" X2

Both Baggin Gorme and Stussy looked at Knight in disbelief.

How did he know?

Or perhaps,

Knight's smile grew even more mocking. "Are you afraid the government will find out that you, as a CP0 member, are an undercover agent planted in the government by Vegapunk?"

"What?"

Baginam looked at Knight in disbelief, then at Stusey with even greater disbelief.

She's actually CP0?

That made her understand why this woman wanted to kill her.

"How is that possible..."

Stussy was a million times more surprised than Baginam, but she was so surprised that she froze, staring blankly at Knight.

How could that be? How could he know?

Only I and the PhD should know this!

"You don't want this news to get back to the government, do you?"

I've already said it, what else is there to do if not play in a wheelchair?
