Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

Reina experimented for a long time outside the Tower of Trials, but still couldn't figure out how to use this energy. However, he was somewhat certain that this energy should be chakra!

Because after he concentrated this energy in his feet, he was able to walk swiftly on the outer wall of the Tower of Trials.

This is similar to walking on water using chakra; you just need to concentrate the chakra in your feet. However, he cannot release ninjutsu because ninjutsu requires not only chakra but also the coordination of chakra within the body and hand seals, which he does not know.

The feeling of having obtained the treasure but being unable to open it is extremely unpleasant. He now possesses the most important thing, but lacks the key to unlock it, a feeling that is driving him crazy!

Now that he has figured out the energy within his body, he no longer needs to worry. As for the issue of ninjutsu, he plans to deal with it later. Right now, he must first clear the tower and obtain points to prepare for the upcoming battle.

After entering the Tower of Trials, Reina made it to the twentieth floor in one go, gaining a total of 110,000 skill experience, 1 random summon beast fragment, 1 random mount fragment, and 11000 points.

He should have retreated at this point and waited until he recovered his strength before coming back in to continue climbing the tower, which would have greatly reduced his chances of getting injured.

However, he felt that although he had exhausted himself, he could still continue to push forward, so he did not stop.

When the gatekeeper of the twenty-fifth floor fell to the ground, Reina also had some blood on him; he had been injured in the battle.

The significant depletion of his physical strength, coupled with the increasing strength of his opponents, has made it increasingly difficult for Reina to cope.

"Phew~" Taking a deep breath, Reina chose to exit the Tower of Trials.

On the floating island, in Reina's room, the Golden Lion, who was drinking red wine and smoking a cigar, was startled by Reina's sudden appearance.

He came here because his subordinates reported that Akame Reina was missing, so he came to check.

Although he had promised Reina to find a powerful helper, the fact that the person had suddenly disappeared from his floating island still surprised him, which is why he came over to check. Unexpectedly, he saw Reina suddenly appear.

"What...what is this?" The golden lion's mouth gaped open, not even noticing that his cigar had fallen.

"Phew~ It's nothing, just a minor injury. Get me some food, and have a doctor come and treat me!" Reina waved his hand wearily and said.

Although completely bewildered, the Golden Lion still followed Reina's instructions, having his subordinates bring him food and a doctor come to treat him.

"By the way... who made you look so disheveled? Did you manage to get any help?" After lighting another cigar, Golden Lion asked Reina.

Reina shook his head and said, "No, I'll go again after I recover!"

"What kind of guy did you invite...?" Golden Lion was genuinely curious this time. He knew that Reina's strength was no weaker than his own now. Although he was no longer as powerful as he was at his peak, Golden Lion was still not to be underestimated.

But even with his formidable strength, Reina was covered in wounds and looked exhausted. The crucial point was that he still hadn't managed to get the other party to come, which truly puzzled him.

However, Reina completely ignored the curious golden lion and instead closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The continuous battles had greatly depleted his stamina, and he needed to rest as soon as possible. Before taking action, he had to obtain 100,000 points, otherwise his current points would not be enough to summon the Nine-Tails.

When Reina woke up, he was all alone in the room. Feeling a bit hungry, Reina didn't stand on ceremony and went straight to the kitchen to ask the chef to make him some food. He could use Life Return to convert food into stamina, which would allow his body to quickly return to its peak condition.

After a hearty meal, Reina finally arrived in the hall, where the Golden Lion had been waiting for him for quite some time.

“I’ll set off now. Once we’ve dealt with that guy, we can proceed according to plan!” Reina said, picking his teeth as he found a seat and sat down, before Golden Lion could even ask a question.

"Hehehehe... Alright, alright, since you won't let me ask any more questions, I won't! But how long will it take you to come back this time? I'd like to make preparations as soon as possible!" Shiki the Golden Lion said with a loud laugh.

"No rush, wait until I get back! You just need to assemble the troops!" Reina said, waving his hand, and then disappeared right in front of the Golden Lion.

Since the other party has already seen him suddenly appear, it's better to leave in front of him, which will give the other party some mystery.

Watching Reina disappear on the spot, the Golden Lion remained seated in the main seat without moving.

"Captain, has that guy really disappeared?" Indigo asked, quite surprised.

"Why don't you go and see for yourself?" the Golden Lion said, squinting.

He himself found it hard to believe.

But when Indigo walked over and confirmed that Reina was really gone, the expressions on both of their faces became very strange.

“Captain… if the enemy has such methods, what if they suddenly disappear during the battle…” Indigo’s eyes flickered, and he hesitated before speaking.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!" the golden lion said, squinting his eyes.

"So what do we do next?" Indigo asked cautiously.

"How is the troop assembly going?" Golden Lion asked in a deep voice.

“There are basically no problems anymore. The monster army has been assembled. It’s just that not many of the pirates under our command back then are willing to come back now. Many have already disappeared from the sea, so there aren’t many people in this regard!” Indigo shook his head and replied.

"No problem, as long as we have the monster army! You will command the battlefield at Marineford. Just keep the Marines firmly trapped in Marineford! Don't engage them head-on, spread out and focus on destruction! Otherwise, with Sengoku's abilities, you simply won't be able to hold off the Marines' powerful warriors!" Shiki said softly.

“Yes, Captain, I understand!” Indigo nodded in reply.

“Once you achieve your goal, you can leave the battlefield!” The Golden Lion glanced at the other party. He knew that Indigo had already seen through that Marineford was just bait, so he said this on purpose.

"Yes, Captain!" As expected, Indigo immediately replied with a beaming smile upon hearing the Golden Lion's instructions.

Chapter 526 The Plan Begins

After entering the Tower of Trials for the second time and choosing to continue fighting, Reina broke through to the thirtieth floor in one go.

Congratulations! You have received 20 skill experience points!

Congratulations! You have obtained: 2 random mount fragments!

Congratulations! You have obtained a random skill book!

Congratulations! You have earned 100000 points!

"The reward has been stored in the storage box and can be withdrawn at any time!"

After receiving the reward, Reina casually used the random skill book.

"You have acquired an E-rank skill: Three Bodies Technique!"

Reina, who was just about to leave the Tower of Trials, was stunned.

"Three Body Technique? Could it be the one I'm thinking of?" Reina quickly opened his backpack, learned the Three Body Technique skill, and soon a memory appeared in his mind, which was the ninjutsu Three Body Technique.

Although the Three Body Technique is the foundation of ninjutsu and the lowest-ranking E-level ninjutsu, it is known as a basic divine technique.

The Three Body Technique is not a single ninjutsu, but rather a collective term for three basic ninjutsu: the Transformation Technique, the Clone Technique, and the Substitution Technique.

Having gained the memory of using the three basic ninjutsu, Reina took a deep breath and then quickly formed hand seals: "Mi-Snake-Tiger" "Hah!"

"Oh!"

As Reina finished his hand seals, a puff of smoke appeared, and a person who looked exactly like him appeared beside him. However, the clone seemed somewhat dazed, and upon closer inspection, it could be seen that it was different from the original.

Even so, Reina was quite satisfied. As long as he could improve his hand seal speed, this move could play an unexpected role in the battle.

After practicing the Three Bodies Technique for a while, Reina left the Tower of Trials. Now was not the time to challenge the tower, but to fight the Navy.

"Welcome back, my friend!" Shiki the Golden Lion greeted Reina with a smile when he reappeared in the hall.

"Could you give me some food first?" Reina said with a smile.

He took a shower after he came back and then came to the living room, but he didn't eat anything, so he's a little hungry now.

"So, is everything done?" Shiki asked, a cigar dangling from his lips.

“Of course! We can set off anytime now!” Reina nodded and replied.

"No rush. Although I'm all better here, you should get yourself into top condition first! That way, our chances of winning will be much higher!" Shiki waved his hand, chuckling as he had someone bring food to Reina.

“Of course! But we can do this on the way! And to give us a better chance of winning, I specially learned a little skill! Transformation!” Reina immediately formed a hand seal and transformed himself into the form of a golden lion.

"You did that..." The Golden Lion asked in surprise, circling Reina once and clicking his tongue, "How did you do that?"

"Just a little trick, the Clone Technique!" Reina, now in the form of a golden lion, used the Clone Technique again, creating another golden lion before transforming back into his original form!

"You mean... you're planning to have him replace me?" Golden Lion immediately understood Reina's meaning and asked.

“Well, I can control him, but he can’t be attacked, or even suppressed by his aura, or he’ll disappear. So he’s just a little thing! But he can buy us some time!” Reina said with a light laugh.

"Hehehehe... I understand. Just let him stand on the floating island! Leave him to Indigo to protect him, and that will be foolproof!" Originally, he wanted to pat his dull self, but after hearing Reina's words, the Golden Lion had no choice but to withdraw his hand. Otherwise, who would be responsible if he accidentally killed him?

Soon the floating island began to move towards the Navy Headquarters, and as the floating island moved, the Navy also began to carry out its own operations.

"It seems the Navy is really afraid we won't fall for their trap! They've sent out two admirals!" Reina said with a light laugh as he looked at the intelligence report showing Aokiji and Akainu leaving Navy Headquarters one after another.

"It can only be said that we are short-handed. Otherwise, if Newgate and the others could hold off Aokiji and Akainu, the Marine Headquarters would definitely suffer a devastating blow that they could not tolerate! Hehehehe..." Shiki laughed loudly.

To be honest, Reina was also somewhat tempted. With the Whitebeard Pirates and Shiki joining forces, they could definitely give the Navy a hard time if they took this opportunity.

However, neither he nor Whitebeard aimed to become the navy. They had no ambition to become kings or conquerors; they simply wanted to freely adventure on the high seas.

If it weren't for the feud between Reina and Magellan, he wouldn't have gotten involved this time.

"Everything... is ready!" Golden Lion and Sengoku, though in different places, said the same thing.

Half an hour later, the floating island arrived above Marineford, the naval headquarters. Then, several smaller islands floating around the largest floating island fell directly from the sky and crashed down towards Marineford.

"They've arrived as expected!" Sengoku said, squinting as he looked at the island that had descended from the sky.

"Then let's begin!" With a command from Lieutenant General Tsuru, the artillery fire that had been prepared beforehand directly covered the small floating island that had fallen.

"Boom boom boom..."

"Looks like the Navy was well-prepared! But this isn't enough! Kids... it's time for you to make your appearance!" Indigo, who was slowly descending from the main island, said with a strange laugh.

"Roar~~~"

"Roar~~~"

On the main island, more than five thousand enormous monsters roared angrily.

These monsters are bigger and more ferocious than those that appeared in Loguetown back then! Their blood-red eyes and the isolated equipment tell the story that even Indigo and the Golden Lion cannot control them.

"Boom!" When the main island landed in the port of Marineford, the smaller floating islands that were used as cover were completely destroyed.

But the appearance of the roaring monster army next made Sengoku and Vice Admiral Tsuru's expressions change.

Although they were mentally prepared, they were still startled when the monster army actually appeared.

"Then we should go too!" Behind the floating island, Reina and Golden Lion climbed directly onto the hard shell's back, and then a bubble covered its back.

The chances of being discovered by going underwater are quite small, which is also Reina and the Golden Lion's plan. Marineford is handed over to Indigo and the fake Golden Lion, while they go to attack Impel Down.

"Golden Lion... Shiki! You madman!" Sengoku gritted his teeth as he looked at Marineford, which had instantly turned into a battlefield.

"The Golden Lion hasn't made a move yet. Take advantage of this moment and eliminate all the monsters!" Sengoku immediately issued the order.

However, the monsters did not gather together at all. Apart from the generals and elite navy personnel, the rest of the navy soldiers were no match for the monsters.

"Marshal, let me do it!" Kizaru, unable to bear watching any longer, stepped forward and said.

"Don't rush. When Kuzan and Sakazuki return, you two will kill the Golden Lion in one fell swoop!" Sengoku replied calmly.
