"boom--"
The silent paper doll approached stealthily, its feet wreathed in golden aura, and kicked the golden lion in the lower back.
"Ugh...cough cough..."
The Golden Lion let out another miserable roar and flew towards Roger and his group.
"Golden Lion, sink to the bottom of the sea! Let your wild and unrealistic dreams accompany you as you go!"
Swish-
Two figures leaped up; it was Roger and Rayleigh attacking simultaneously.
Roger's blade flashed with black light, and the surrounding space trembled slightly.
This slash struck at the same time as Rayleigh's attack. Whether the injured Golden Lion dodged or took the blow head-on, he would not fare well.
"I... I would never..."
shave!
"Die, you hammer!"
Norton and his clone suddenly appeared on either side of the Golden Lion and simultaneously threw punches at him.
With Roger and Rayleigh attacking from the front and Norton and his clones attacking from the left and right, Shiki was utterly desperate.
It was only then that he suddenly realized that his Float Fruit, apart from allowing him to float, seemed to be utterly useless in crucial moments!
boom!boom!
puff puff...
Just as the Golden Lion was losing focus in despair, Norton and his clone simultaneously punched him in the temple, but they didn't actually knock him down.
The overwhelming force pierced through him, directly impacting his head and shattering his brain; even his eyeballs were blown out.
Roger and Rayleigh's slashes also struck him simultaneously, ripping him open. (5)
Golden Lion vs. Roger Pirates and Norton, Golden Lion—Dead!
"Whew—that was awesome!"
As he watched the golden lion's corpse fall into the sea, Norton let out a triumphant shout.
In this burst of attacks, he could be said to have incorporated all the results of his training over the past year into the battle.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have exceeded the completion target for the Mad Golden Lion dungeon, defeated Shiki, and obtained a special mission reward: a "Rank B Island Expansion Card".]
Grade B Island Expansion Card: After use, it can expand the island owned by the host by 30%.
"Holy crap! High effort really does bring high reward! I knew it! Defeating the Golden Lion would definitely give you good loot! But system, once you've cleared this dungeon, can you not do it again?"
[Ding! Not really! Once this dungeon is cleared by the host, it will be permanently saved. The host can come back to practice whenever they want, but there will be no more rewards.]
"Ah! That makes perfect sense!"
Norton nodded in relief: "I knew it. You wouldn't leave me a bug so I could farm rewards here."
[Ding! The host will return in fifteen seconds.]
After hearing the system notification, Norton looked at the golden lion's hand again.
This guy is already a corpse floating on the sea, so how come Sakura Ju and Mu Ku are still holding him?
"System, can I take the items from the dungeon world out of here? I killed a big boss and got two pieces of equipment from him, that's reasonable, right?"
[Ding! No! Don't try to find a loophole! No items other than the moves the host can record are allowed to be taken out.]
"Heh heh...Trying to find a loophole, failed again..."
He stuck out his tongue, and when the time was up, Norton disappeared from the instance.
At the same time, Roger and his crew also vanished, frozen in time.
……
Back in the back mountain, Norton immediately found a place to sit down and began to summarize his experience from this battle.
In this battle, without Roger and the others joining forces, I clearly felt that there was still a gap between me and the Golden Lion in a one-on-one fight.
However, the difference isn't that big; if it really came down to a life-or-death struggle with the Golden Lion, he might not necessarily lose.
Moreover, the key issue is that the Golden Lion's strength has declined, and he still has a ship's rudder stuck on his head, so it's really hard to say who will win if they actually fight.
"When I have time in the future, I'll go to the dungeon to fight the Golden Lion. It's a good option! If I go again, I'll have to talk to Roger first and ask him to let me try a one-on-one fight first. If that doesn't work, we'll fight together."
Chapter 79 Joely Bonney
With a plan in mind, Norton thought of the expansion card again.
"System, if I use the expansion card now, will the people on the island notice?" Norton asked in his mind, looking at the card that said "expansion".
[Ding! Yes, a minor earthquake will occur during the expansion, but it won't be serious and will only last for thirty seconds.]
"Then there's not much of a problem."
With a sigh of relief, Norton called out towards the back of the mountain: "Colt, Raul, have your men immediately issue a notice saying that there will be a minor earthquake later, and that everyone should not panic."
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
The two who were practicing responded and immediately sent someone away.
Before long, the loudspeakers in the inner city began broadcasting.
When the people heard that it was His Majesty who had personally sent someone to inform them, they were initially worried, but now they were relieved.
After hearing the announcement from within the city, Norton affixed the card to the island management ring.
Swah——
With a flash of light, the card transformed into a beam of light and disappeared into the ring.
Rumble...
The island began to tremble the next second, just as expected.
Norton hurriedly looked up and around, trying to see if there had been any major changes.
"There have been quite a few changes!"
First, Norton noticed that the distance between the palace and the back hill had suddenly increased.
Secondly, the extensions on the east and west sides have also lengthened, but these expansions only occurred in uninhabited areas.
If you don't observe this change carefully, it can really fool people during an earthquake.
The island has expanded by 30%, which means that the Kingdom of Oycot, which originally covered 38,000 square kilometers, has expanded to nearly 50,000 square kilometers, increasing its total area by almost half!
"This gives us so much more room for growth!" Norton smiled smugly as he looked at the data on the island management ring.
flapping, flapping...
A gust of wind blew, and Norton looked up to see a newsbird circling overhead.
Over the past year, the newsbird has become quite familiar with Norton, and it can find him whenever he's around.
"Any big news? Here you go!" Norton took out a gold coin and flicked it up. The newspaper bird caught it and put it in its pocket, then took out a newspaper and tossed it down.
"Thanks!" He caught the newspaper, waved, and the newsbird flew away.
Upon opening the newspaper, the front page headline was about the establishment of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
Currently, four people have been agreed upon and confirmed: Hawkeye Mihawk, Doflamingo, Crocodile, and Bartholomew Kuma. Three more are still pending.
If nothing unexpected happens, the other three should be Boa Hancock, Gecko Moria, and Jinbe.
Looking at the newspaper, Norton grumbled, "After half a year of fuss, we've finally got four companies. If you hadn't gotten them, I would have thought that with a flap of my wings, the whole world would have changed."
"elder brother!"
Eileen's voice suddenly rang out from the direction of the palace.
"coming!"
Norton put away the newspaper, got up, and flew over using Moonwalk.
"Sister, what's wrong?" Norton landed beside Eileen and looked at her in surprise.
Eileen smiled sweetly and said, "This is a new friend I met in the South China Sea. I brought her here to play for a couple of days! She's a princess too!"
The girl standing next to Eileen was about 1.7 meters tall, about the same height as Eileen.
She had long pink hair, was very pretty, and wore a pale yellow dress. She seemed a little reserved in front of Norton.
"Greetings, Your Majesty. My name is Jewelry Bonney, and I am the princess of the Kingdom of Sobel." Jewelry Bonney lifted the hem of her skirt and bowed slightly, her eyes sparkling.
“Hello, Joelle Bonney, huh? You’re Bonney?” Norton, realizing what was going on, stared at Bonney with wide eyes.
Bonnie is about the same age as Norton, or maybe a year or two older.
By this time, she had grown into a beautiful young woman with a fantastic figure.
Furthermore, at this time, she had not yet turned to the dark side and become a pirate; she was still a princess, and her temperament was completely different from the fierce girl Norton had in mind.
Seeing her brother staring at the other woman with wide eyes, Eileen couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle.
"Brother, is it pretty?" Suddenly someone appeared beside me.
“It looks good.” Norton nodded very naturally.
Joelle Bonney's pretty face instantly turned red.
Bonnie's heart started pounding as she thought about what Erin had mentioned before.
According to Eileen, her brother is tall and handsome, and most importantly, young and promising.
At only sixteen years old, he single-handedly turned the tide, saved the Kingdom of Oycot from collapse, and brought wealth and happiness to the entire kingdom.
He and she, the princess, are absolutely a perfect match!
Of course, this was a private conversation between the two sisters after they met.
Now that Bonnie remembered it, she felt a little shy, but also a little expectant.
"Excuse me..." Norton suddenly realized that his behavior was a bit off, and his face turned red as he apologized, "When did you arrive? Have you been to the amusement park?"
