One Piece: Kaido's adopted son, opening the Eight Gates

Everything has returned to normal.

But no one's heart could find peace again.

Lynn's figure slowly drifted down from the sky and returned to the open space on Ghost Island.

He clapped his hands, a somewhat bored expression on his face, and said casually.

"Let's go back and continue the banquet."

That nonchalant tone and nonchalant attitude made everyone present feel a sharp pang in their hearts.

After making such a big fuss, it turned out to be as easy as taking a walk after dinner?

Is there any limit to this guy's power?!

Hawkeye, Crocodile, and Doflamingo exchanged glances, each seeing a hint of approval in the other's eyes.

Without hesitation, they followed Lynn toward the banquet hall.

"Hahaha! This trip was worthwhile! It was truly worthwhile!"

Shiki the Golden Lion let out a deafening laugh; the shock he felt today was greater than all he had ever experienced in his entire life.

The Red Earl also put away his red umbrella, and a strong, playful light shone in his deep eyes.

Today's trip was worthwhile.

however.

Just as everyone was about to turn and leave.

A hoarse yet incredibly firm voice rang out from behind.

"and many more!"

Everyone paused, instinctively turning around to look.

Douglas Barrett, the monster of the old era who had just conceded defeat, was staring intently at Lynn's back.

He took a deep breath, and then, amidst the astonished and incredulous gazes of everyone, he spoke, word by word, in an almost pleading tone.

"Lynn, let me join the Godslayer Guild too!"

boom! ! ! !

This statement had an even greater impact than the appearance of that golden Buddha statue!

Everyone present was completely stunned.

what's the situation? !

Douglas Barrett?

That aloof monster who, because he didn't trust anyone, wanted to surpass Roger all by himself?

That man who would rather die than submit, and who carried on the "lone wolf" spirit to the very end?

He... he's going to join someone else's faction?!

This is even more outrageous than the sun rising in the west!

Everyone couldn't help but show surprise.

Lynn turned around, raised an eyebrow, and looked at Barrett with interest.

"Oh?"

"Don't you like someone?"

"What? Have you figured it out?"

Barrett's face flashed with struggle and humiliation, but in the end, they were replaced by a stronger emotion called "desire".

He raised his head, his eyes, now burning with renewed passion, fixed intently on Lynn.

"I have only one condition!"

His voice was resolute and unwavering.

"Guide me!"

"Make me stronger!"

A proud and arrogant strongman who only believed in his own strength, after witnessing incomprehensible, godlike power, all that remained for him was the purest desire and pursuit of even greater power!

For this goal, he can abandon his so-called dignity and arrogance!

Lynn looked at the undisguised longing in Barrett's eyes, and the playfulness on his face gradually turned into approval.

"can."

He nodded.

"I promise you."

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations, host, on successfully recruiting "General-level" combatant—Douglas Barrett!]

[Recruiting Personnel Progress: 2/3!]

A system notification sounded in Lynn's mind.

This is the second one.

Surprisingly, Barrett, this tough nut to crack, became the second person to voluntarily surrender.

Just one more thing and we'll be done with the mission.

Lynn's gaze unconsciously swept towards the Golden Lion and the Red Earl not far away.

These two old monsters are definitely at the general level in terms of combat strength...

however.

Just as he was about to speak and test the waters with the two men.

call--! ! !

A scorching, destructive aura suddenly descended from above everyone's heads!

Everyone, including Lynn, suddenly looked up!

I saw.

Above the azure sky, a huge black dot, burning with raging flames, is rapidly expanding at an astonishing speed!

That was... a huge meteorite!

"I rely on!"

"WTF?!"

"Was it done by the Golden Lion?!"

Quinn screamed in fright and instinctively looked at the Golden Lion.

"It's not me!"

Golden Lion was also completely bewildered. He swore that he hadn't made this thing!

The meteorite, powerful enough to level half of Oni Island, was about to fall.

Lynn pursed her lips, a look of impatience on her face.

He was too lazy to even transform anymore.

Just a thought.

hum-

Behind him, in the void of space, a gigantic, pure golden Buddha hand, obscuring the sky, appeared out of thin air!

then.

He gently slapped the meteorite that had fallen from the sky.

Like swatting a fly.

boom! ! ! !

The meteorite, burning with fierce flames and exuding a menacing aura, shattered instantly upon contact with the golden Buddha's hand, not even lasting a second!

It turned into countless pebbles and sparks, disappearing without a trace.

"..."

Everyone was numb.

Such devastating natural disasters are nothing but child's play for this young master...

at this time.

A deep, approving voice came from the shore not far away.

"Truly... an incredible power."

Everyone followed the sound.

There stood a tall, blind man in a purple kimono, his eyes closed, leaning on a cane and a knife.

A gentle smile graced his face.

Lynn's eyes narrowed slightly.

He recognized the person at a glance.

Fujitora, the future Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, lived his life!

What is he doing here?

Everyone else noticed it too.

To be able to summon such a massive meteorite with a flick of the wrist, causing a cataclysmic apocalyptic scene... that's definitely a formidable character!

but.

Those present were not too surprised by this.

After all, with a monster like the protagonist who is even more exaggerated, outrageous, and incomprehensible... the mere summoning of meteorites is simply not enough to cause them any psychological fluctuation.

"you……"

Lynn was just about to ask the other party the purpose of their visit.

Fujitora then bowed slightly in Lynn's direction and spoke in an extremely sincere tone.

"This old man, my whole life."

"I've long heard of the Demon Child's great name, and seeing him today, I can confirm that it lives up to his reputation."

"I wonder if I will have the honor of joining..."

"Godslayer Guild?"

Chapter 125 The 5x Kaioken is here! The Five Elders are about to vomit blood from anger!

That deep, sincere voice echoed slowly in the silent open space.

Everyone present was stunned.

The people of Onigashima looked at this guy who suddenly appeared and could summon a giant meteorite with a single move, their eyes filled with strangeness.

Are experts so worthless these days?

Why are they popping up one after another?

Kaido's enormous dragon head also came closer, its lantern-sized dragon eyes scrutinizing the tall, blind man, and it spoke in a deep, muffled voice.

"Ugh... Someone who can't even see the road clearly wants to get on my son's boat?"

"Old man, your courage is much better than your eyesight."

Despite the scrutiny of these top-tier pirates, Fujitora's face remained unchanged.
