Starting as a pirate, he rose to become the strongest Shinigami in Soul Society.

Chapter 261: Dragon's Fierce Battle Against Borsalino and Satan!

"Borusalino, it's been a long time." Dragon stood beside several pacifists, showing no pressure from the impending war, and greeted Borusalino with ease.

"Where is Dr. Vegapunk?" Borsalino didn't answer, but instead frowned slightly and asked.

Dragon clearly had no intention of answering the question, and looked at Borsalino, saying, "Speaking of which, when I left the Navy, you had just been promoted to Vice Admiral. It was one thing then, but now you've been in the Navy's upper echelons for so many years, don't you feel any guilt?"

Borsalino was slightly taken aback by these words, but after a moment, he said, "I'm just an employee, I don't have that many feelings."

"I've always thought that compared to Kuzan and Sakazuki, you're the most adept at self-deception, and now it seems that's true." Dragon sighed softly. "At least those two are trying to change something, but you've chosen to run away from the very beginning. But running away doesn't solve anything, does it?"

"I'm just going with the flow. There are some problems that I can't solve, but someone else can, so please don't always make things difficult for me, okay?" Borsalino said with a slightly troubled expression.

He has maintained this attitude towards everything until now.

I'm just a working person, why do you always make things difficult for me?

He practiced the path of remaining neutral and ambiguous.

"You really are something." Dragon was about to say something.

Then the situation changed.

A strange pentagram suddenly appeared on the ground beside Borsalino.

In the center of this pentagram array, a strange and inexplicable energy rapidly gathered, transforming into billowing black smoke.

A moment later, Jaigolusia Satan, one of the Five Elders, appeared from the pentagram.

"A teleportation array?" A hint of surprise flashed in Dragon's eyes, but when he clearly saw Satan Saint's appearance, he said with a hint of understanding, "I see, a mythical beast?"

At this time, Satan Saint had undergone a complete transformation from his former self.

Horns, like those of a demon, grew and curved from the sides of his head. His curly hair and beard were completely intertwined, covering his upper body. His face was also somewhat distorted, like a ghost, but one could still vaguely make out his former appearance.

His body had swelled to at least seven or eight times its original size, making Borusalino look like a skinny stick next to him.

Beneath its massive body, it resembled a spider, with six legs beneath its rounded abdomen, along with its hands, giving it the appearance of an eight-legged spider.

This image immediately reminded Dorrag of a legendary monster called "Ox-Demon," but he couldn't be entirely sure at the moment whether Satan Saint's power was this monster.

Satan Saint's gaze also locked onto Dragon. After a moment, he raised his hand to cover his forehead, seemingly activating his ability, and said in a deep voice, "I have witnessed Dragon in Eghard. If I am not surprised, this incident was planned by the Revolutionary Army. Vegapunk is suspected of cooperating with the Revolutionary Army."

Long-distance communication!

Saint Satan possesses the bizarre ability to communicate directly with the remaining four Elders of Mary Geoise, thousands of miles away, without the need for any equipment!

Meanwhile, in the Holy Land, Mary Geoise.

Between the powers of Pongel Castle.

The other four of the Five Elders received a communication from Saint Satan.

"So that's how it is, the Revolutionary Army?" Vochuli Saint murmured softly.

"We must never let the Revolutionary Army obtain the truth of history; we must wipe them all out here!" Nasujiro said in a somber tone.

Maz Saint stroked his beard and asked, "Do you need our support?"

Besides this ultra-long-distance communication, Satan Saint can also use that teleportation-like ability to directly summon the other four Elders to Egerhard to come and help!

"If necessary, I will activate the teleportation," Saint Satan replied.

Although he wasn't quite sure what was going on, Dragon had already realized that Saint Satan was communicating with someone. He frowned, thinking to himself, "The entire island's communication signals are blocked, so it can't be due to his abilities, can it?"

Just as Dorag was pondering these thoughts, Satan Saint seemed to have ended the call, coldly saying, "Things have come to this, no more words are needed. Today, I will bury you here!"

The moment the words left his mouth, a fierce glint flashed in Satan Saint's eyes.

Dorag had seen many times when eyes turned fierce, but after Satan Saint's eyes changed, he clearly sensed a dangerous signal.

Without any hesitation, he raised his arm and wrapped it around his face with a powerful gesture.

The next second, as if attacked by some invisible and intangible force, my arm exploded with a bang, releasing a cloud of flames and smoke.

At the same moment, Borsalino seemed to have anticipated this situation and should have some understanding of Satan's abilities. He immediately transformed into golden light and flashed to Dragon's side.

While the figure of "Light Speed ​​Kick" was still hovering in the air, Borsalino swept out with a kick.

Golden light elemental traces were dragged along the base of its feet.

As the saying goes, speed is power, and Borsalino's kick clearly operates according to this principle. Although this attack is called the "Light Speed ​​Kick," its actual speed is obviously far from reaching the true speed of light.

Even so, its power was already quite terrifying.

However, Dragon was also a top-tier fighter with extensive experience in battle, and he was quite familiar with Borsalino. He had no intention of confronting him head-on. He casually used his Haki-wrapped arm to block his ear, and was then kicked by Borsalino.

The impact had barely begun when Dragon slipped, using Borsalino's momentum to send him flying.

In this somewhat awkward manner, he directly dissipated most of the force from Borsalino's kick.

As soon as he landed, Dragon roared, "Dragon Breath!"

At this moment, Borsalino was no longer in his sight, but he seemed to have anticipated this situation. He transformed one hand into a grappling hook and slammed it rapidly on the ground for a moment.

In the next instant, Borsalino's golden light flashed and appeared in front of Dragon.

However, before Borsalino could launch an attack, his usually nonchalant face suddenly turned serious, and his elemental form, which had not yet solidified, dissipated at an extremely fast speed.

Before Borsalino could fully disperse, a powerful burst of energy erupted from the ground, instantly shattering the ground within a radius of nearly a hundred meters. Then, as if a super bomb had been buried underground, the debris, carrying the energy and Dragon's Haki, shot out in all directions.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

The massive cloud of smoke seemed to completely obscure everyone's vision in an instant.

At the same moment, Zoro tilted his head slightly and looked at Satan, who was already shrouded in smoke and dust not far away, his hand unconsciously resting on the sword at his waist.

But the next second, he gave a self-deprecating laugh and didn't make any further moves.

And just as Zoro seemed to realize something, in the dust and smoke, Dragon's figure appeared suddenly in front of Satan Saint as if by teleportation.

The speed was so fast that even Satan Saint seemed to have failed to notice it.

This is normal, though. Perhaps he possesses top-tier mythical beast abilities, various bizarre ways of using his abilities, and even all three types of domineering power.

However, he was, after all, one of the Five Elders, who had long resided above Mary Geoise, looking down upon all living beings. In his daily life, he used power more than strength.

Therefore, he lacks experience in fighting or battling, and the last time he fought was decades ago. In any case, his ability to adapt to combat is clearly insufficient.

Unable to avoid Dragon's attack, she looked down at him somewhat dazedly.

At this moment, one of Dorrag's hands was already hooked onto Satan Saint's leg like a claw.

"Let me see if your brute force can withstand my dragon's claws!" Dragon sneered.

The moment the words left his mouth, a cracking sound was heard, flesh and blood splattered, and bones broke.

With a single claw strike, Dorrag snapped Satan Saint's leg.

It seemed that only then did Satan Saint realize what was happening, and a strange power suddenly erupted from his body, causing Dorag's agile figure to freeze and slow down.

This inexplicable sense of oppression shattered Dragon's original plan to create distance and find another opportunity after his successful attack.

Immediately after, Borsalino's figure leaped out from the smoke, drawing a golden longsword—the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi!

Without a word, Borsalino raised his hand and slashed at Dragon's neck.

At this moment, due to the inexplicable suppression of Satan Saint's power, Dragon was unable to dodge immediately. However, he was quite decisive. He wrapped his body in Haki and forced himself to raise his hand to block at his side. Then, Borsalino pierced through Dragon's Haki armor with a single slash and slashed hard at Dragon's arm.

The Kusanagi sword slashed a bloody gash on Dorrag's arm. At that moment, Dorrag broke through Satan's suppression, stomped his foot, and retreated rapidly, instantly creating a distance of dozens of meters.

"You've really gotten a lot stronger than you were back then," Dragon said, his brow furrowing as he looked at Borsalino, who was protecting Satan's body.

"I am, after all, a Marine Admiral, am I?" Borsalino said calmly.

After a slight pause, he looked at Saint Satan and asked, "Are you alright?"

"It's nothing, just a little bug bite." Satan Saint had a broken leg, but he didn't seem to mind at all.

As he finished speaking, a surge of life force erupted from his body. This life force was completely unreasonable, and at an extremely fast speed, it reconnected and repaired the leg bone that Dorrag had broken. In the blink of an eye, he was completely restored to his original state, without any damage.

Seeing Dorag's somewhat surprised expression, Satan sneered, "What's wrong? Weren't you just arrogantly trying to see if you could crush my power?"
