Multiverse Skill System

Page 26

After Yi Shuihan finished demonstrating his skills, Joanna walked up to him and gave him a smile that could charm anyone.

"Oh my, little brother is so amazing, I can't stand it, I admire you so much!" Joanna acted like a little girl, acting cute, which instantly ignited a fire in Yi Shuihan's heart, almost making him lose control.

"If your heart is clear as ice, you won't be alarmed even if the sky falls. Stay calm, stay calm..." Yi Shuihan barely managed to control himself. "If Robin hadn't been there, I would have dealt with you."

Joanna's ambiguous words drew a hostile look from Robin, who, if she hadn't known the situation was inappropriate, would probably have fought Joanna.

"Shameless! Aren't you ashamed?" he muttered under his breath.

"You've passed, but I won't be giving you this 3-star ID card."

Yi Shuihan was taken aback. Had he said something wrong?

"Wait a moment, I'll give you a surprise soon." Joanna said, then disappeared from Yi Shuihan's sight.

3 minutes later,

Yi Shuihan smiled as he held the black card in his hand. It showed three solid red hearts and one blank red heart, which represented a 6-star member.

Joanna is quite capable; she gave me 6 stars right away. With her authority, she only has one chance to do that, so it seems she thinks highly of me!

Even Rayleigh was somewhat surprised by Joanna's actions. However, considering Yi Shuihan's strength, he could only admire Joanna's good judgment of character. Given Yi Shuihan's personality, he was definitely not the kind of person who would forget kindness. In the future, when Yi Shuihan becomes successful, what Joanna gained will definitely be worthwhile.

In fact, Yi Shuihan now admires Joanna quite a bit, and he would definitely not ignore anything that might happen to her.

After Joanna explained some of the rules of the Temple of All Realms, she offered to treat everyone to a meal. Just as Yi Shuihan was considering whether to accept, an uninvited guest appeared before them.

The newcomer had wild, lion-like hair, a cold expression, and an aura of dominance over the world in his eyes. However, his feet were empty, consisting of two swords.

"It's you! Golden Lion!" Rayleigh's expression turned serious when he saw this person. He hadn't expected Golden Lion to come here.

"Rayleigh, it's been a long time." The Golden Lion's tone was calm, but a hint of apprehension flashed in his eyes. There were not many people in the world who could make him wary, but Rayleigh was definitely one of them. Especially now that he had lost his legs and his strength had been greatly reduced, he had no confidence in facing Rayleigh.

"Hmm?" Yi Shuihan noticed that the golden lion's gaze was a bit off, revealing obvious hostility. "You came for me?"

Sensing the tense atmosphere, Joanna stepped in front of Yi Shuihan, "What brings you here, Lord Golden Lion?"

Joanna's actions warmed Yi Shuihan's heart, and he felt even more favorably toward Joanna.

Chapter 69, Is the Golden Lion a Scoundrel?

Golden Lion did not answer Joanna's question, but instead turned his gaze directly to Yi Shuihan.

"navy?"

"That's right!"

"What are you here for?"

"Join the Temple of All Realms!"

The conversation between Jin Shizi and Yi Shuihan was very brief, but anyone who knew them would be shocked to see it. A young man who could answer questions in front of Jin Shizi without changing his expression or showing any fear was practically extinct, unless he didn't know Jin Shizi's true identity, which Yi Shuihan clearly did.

For the first time, Jin Shizi's gaze towards Yi Shuihan held a different meaning. He had initially looked down on Yi Shuihan, the youngest lieutenant general in history, but now he had changed his mind; the other party might actually have some ability.

But so what? The navy is going to die.

Thinking about everyone's sacrifices in order to escape from the prison, Shiki became somewhat agitated.

The Sengoku period would have been heartbroken to lose a true genius!

"Rayleigh, you're not going to help him, are you?" Golden Lion asked, a little nervous. If Rayleigh insisted on protecting this kid, then he might really not be able to deal with him.

Rayleigh shook his head slightly. "He doesn't need my protection."

Golden Lion was certain in his heart, but he didn't notice that Rayleigh said "no need" for protection, not that there was no need for protection.

"Then you should just die!"

Golden Lion made his move without warning. Losing his legs did not slow him down; on the contrary, the reduced weight allowed him to control his body more easily using the Float-Float Fruit, making him even faster than in his prime.

The speed that broke the sound barrier triggered an explosion that was deafening. Robin's ears rang, and she was completely stunned.

"Do you want to regain your legs?" The Golden Lion's fist hovered one centimeter away from Yi Shuihan, his breathing somewhat disordered.

"You think I'd believe you? Even if I were to recover using some method, I could never fully recover to my previous state. Otherwise, do you think I wouldn't be able to recover with my strength?" Golden Lion said with a look of disbelief.

"Then why did you stop?" Yi Shuihan asked calmly, and Jin Shizi's face darkened. "You still have expectations in your heart!"

As if his secret had been revealed, the Golden Lion fell silent. Indeed, when he first escaped from the Great Prison, he had always wanted to find a way to recover. After trying countless methods, he found that getting a pair of legs was not a problem, but it was impossible to regain his original strength. He was not as strong as he was now, so he gradually gave up on his legs. However, no one knew the unwillingness he hid in his heart.

"Surgery Results"

"What? You know its whereabouts? Tell me quickly, tell me, and I'll let you go." Shiki already knew the name of the Op-Op Fruit. After consulting countless materials, he managed to glean information from ancient documents that the Op-Op Fruit could completely restore his legs without any aftereffects.

However, the owner of the Op-Op Fruit has not appeared for a long time. Even Shiki thought he would never meet him in his lifetime and gave up the idea of ​​searching for him. Unexpectedly, he heard this name in the air above Yi Shuihan.

Compared to regaining his strength, whether or not to kill Yi Shuihan was irrelevant. Besides, once he learned the news, he could kill him again later. Jin Shizi did not believe that Yi Shuihan would be his opponent in the short term.

"You seem to have misunderstood something. I do know the whereabouts of the Op-Op Fruit, but I don't intend to tell you." Yes, I do know, but only about the owner of the Op-Op Fruit more than a decade from now. As for the current location, I honestly can't pinpoint it.

"You're playing me!" The Golden Lion's previously excited expression instantly turned gloomy, and his body released a domineering aura. A feeling familiar to Yi Shuihan instantly spread throughout his body.

What is this feeling? Conqueror's Haki! Today is truly a good day. Not only have I encountered two users of Conqueror's Haki in one day, but I've also been targeted by both of them with their Haki.

"hehe"

What? The Golden Lion was stunned. What he saw was completely different. Yi Shuihan, who should have been enduring endless pain and begging for mercy, was actually unharmed. Moreover, what was with the other party's eyes? He was mocking me!

Golden Lion was well aware of his own domineering aura. Even an admiral would be overwhelmed and forced to the ground if he was unprepared at such close range. Yet this brat in front of him was completely unharmed. Was he really just a vice admiral?

Thinking of Yi Shuihan's title as the youngest lieutenant general, Jin Shizi suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Or maybe it's my imagination." However, the reactions of the others, especially Robin who sat down on the ground and was covered in sweat, convinced Shiki that he was in reality.

Seeing Robin's pained expression, Yi Shuihan's eyes turned cold. He had originally planned to resolve the matter peacefully, but now he changed his mind.

"boom"

Golden Lion clutched his abdomen, a trickle of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, and his Conqueror's Haki abruptly stopped.

"How is this possible?" Golden Lion looked at Yi Shuihan, who was still in a boxing stance, his eyes filled with disbelief. That speed and the force that he felt was irresistible were just like encountering that guy Garp.

Admiral level! There's no mistake, this kid actually has the strength of an admiral. Shiki felt his worldview collapse, as if he had wasted most of his life.

Joanna stared blankly at the figure in front of her, her mouth slightly agape, then overjoyed. Although she believed that Yi Shuihan had a high chance of becoming a general, which was why she had made the investment, the other party had actually reached a level she could not even imagine. As long as the other party remembered her kindness, she would have an extra layer of protection in the future and would reap great rewards.

I knew it. Rayleigh was the only one who wasn't surprised. When he saw Yi Shuihan, he knew that Yi Shuihan's current strength had definitely reached the level of a general. After all, Yi Shuihan was able to fight him a few years ago.

"Huff... Huff..." As the pressure of Conqueror's Haki disappeared, Robin began to pant, feeling completely relaxed.

"Robin"

"kindness"

"Watch your brother beat this little punk to a pulp and get revenge for you."

Jin Shizi is a nobody, and only Yi Shuihan has the guts to say that.

"Arrogant! Let me teach you a lesson." Even Roger wouldn't dare address me like that; I absolutely cannot let him off easily.

Chapter 70, Who is the Strongest?

"Cleaving Waves"

A sword aura powerful enough to tear the sea apart erupted fiercely, seemingly about to cleave Yi Shuihan in two.

"Watch out!" Robin shouted anxiously.

"He's the one who should be careful."

Despite the sudden attack, Yi Shuihan seemed to have anticipated it. He calmly took a small step with his right foot, bent his waist, and dodged the attack at an extremely strange angle. At the same time, he opened his hand and struck the golden lion's chin with a palm.

The golden lion pulled its head back, its contempt still lingering in its eyes, as if it were a trivial trick.

"Ugh!" Jin Shizi stared at Yi Shuihan with a stiff expression. The pain from his lower body made him want to scream.

"It's actually a monkey stealing peaches? Such a thuggish and vulgar fighting style..."

"Isn't this kind of thuggish fighting style what works? Or is this all you can do?"

Jin Shizi was speechless after Yi Shuihan's words. He knew in his heart that he had been careless, but he didn't say it out loud.

That golden lion actually suffered another loss. He really is the man I've set my sights on. Joanna's lips curved into a beautiful smile, completely forgetting the tension she felt when the golden lion unleashed his sword energy.

That said, he really knows how to play games, actually using such a method. Thinking of Yi Shuihan's actions, Joanna blushed.

"Brother?" Robin also felt an urge to cover her face.

Seeing the Golden Lion's expression, Rayleigh felt a sense of empathy; no man would want to endure that kind of pain!

"Lion Valley"

The golden lion's feet, made of swords, swung continuously, each time releasing a chilling sword aura.

The sword energy blocked Yi Shuihan's escape route, and Yi Shuihan couldn't dodge either. Leaving aside Rayleigh behind him, Robin certainly couldn't withstand the sword energy.

"Are you the only one who can do this?" Yi Shuihan's hand turned into afterimages, constantly shooting out sword energy like laser beams. The sword energy seemed to track the Golden Lion's sword energy, and then they canceled each other out.

"Such keen perception and perfect control." Yi Shuihan's ability to strike after the opponent has already demonstrated that his skills surpass those of Jin Shizi.

The Golden Lion would not give up so easily. While maintaining the release of sword energy, he raised his hand and pointed in the direction of Yi Shuihan.

The Float-Float Fruit allows Shiki to manipulate objects and make them immune to gravity, which was a key factor in his ability to become a great pirate on par with Roger and Whitebeard.

By causing Yi Shuihan to lose gravity and unexpectedly expose a weakness, this is what Jin Shizi did, and it has indeed succeeded.

Yi Shuihan's body slowly levitated, and then several sword energies pierced through his laser screen, about to strike him.

A victorious smile had already appeared in the eyes of the Golden Lion. Surely there wouldn't be any more unexpected events now?

“What will happen?” Rayleigh had a different opinion, because he could clearly see Yi Shuihan’s calm eyes, which were not at all those of someone in a disadvantageous situation.

"How could this be?" The Golden Lion's sword energy did indeed strike Yi Shuihan, but the result was not what he expected. The sword energy had no effect whatsoever; if anything, it only tore Yi Shuihan's clothes.

Since we can't stop it, we shouldn't try to stop it. This level of sword energy is not something that can't be resisted.

"Armament Haki? Or just physical strength?" A look of shock flashed in Rayleigh's eyes. That was a sword aura powerful enough to split the ocean, and he had just taken it so easily, and it seemed so effortless.

Robin breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, her eyes filled with joy; it was good that everything was alright.

"Your clothes are torn! Should I praise you? Well done." Yi Shuihan's indifferent voice rang out, but it sounded so grating to Jin Shizi's ears.

"Damn brat." For the first time, a look of fear appeared in the Golden Lion's eyes. From the moment he arrived until now, the power that Yi Shuihan had displayed had made him feel like he was no longer in control.

Of course, Jin Shizi still did not believe that Yi Shuihan's strength was above his own, because his combat power was limited due to the location of the battle, and he could not use many of his moves.

Furthermore, this is, after all, a branch of the Temple of All Realms. The Golden Lion still cares about the Temple of All Realms. The strength displayed by the Temple of All Realms forces him to take it seriously. If this place is really destroyed, the Temple of All Realms will send a few guards. Although he is not afraid, it will still give him a headache.

Damn it, should we just let him go like this? Should we fight somewhere else? Just as the Golden Lion was pondering this.

Yi Shuihan chuckled as if she could read the Golden Lion's mind. "What? Is our Golden Lion going to run away? Or has your confidence vanished like your legs? Don't you want to know the whereabouts of the Operation Fruit?"

The last sentence brought Shiki to his senses. Thinking of the Op-Op Fruit that could fully restore his strength, he regained his fighting spirit.

If a direct confrontation didn't work, Shiki's gaze subtly swept over Robin not far away, and an idea was about to take shape.

"If you harm her, you can forget about the 'Operation Fruit'?"

How did he figure that out? Jin Shizi was startled and looked at Yi Shuihan with surprise and doubt.

"What do you want?" The Golden Lion's face was extremely ugly. Being forced to this extent by someone he originally regarded as a junior made him feel very angry, and at the same time, he became more and more eager to restore his strength.

"Want to know about the Op-Op Fruit? Sure! Just give me 10 Devil Fruits and I'll tell you right away." Yi Shuihan spoke casually, but his words surprised everyone present.

"Ten Devil Fruits! Are you kidding me?" Shiki's first reaction was that Yi Shuihan had no intention of telling him about the Op-Op Fruit and was just making a condition on purpose.

Could it be true? Seeing Yi Shuihan's serious look, Jin Shizi became doubtful again.

While finding 10 Devil Fruits would be troublesome, it would be possible with enough time and effort if it were Shiki the Golden Lion. However, whether it's worth exchanging 10 Devil Fruits for a piece of information whose veracity is uncertain is a question. Shiki the Golden Lion would prefer to force Yi Shuihan to talk, but that's clearly impossible now.

"Before you answer my question, let me show you the reality! You'll see for yourself who the stronger party really is."

The words echoed in the air, but Yi Shuihan transformed into countless figures, surrounding the golden lion.

Chapter 71, Defeating the Golden Lion! Thinking of Saving the Beauty

Wow, so fast! I can't even tell which one is the real thing.

Golden Lion was on high alert, unleashing his Observation Haki to its fullest potential.

However, it was useless. He couldn't know Yi Shuihan's attack points at all, or rather, he felt that his whole body was a potential attack point.

Since that's the case, let's focus all our efforts on defense.

An invisible aura emanated from the golden lion, and his body turned black at an astonishing speed. In the blink of an eye, black covered his entire body, making him look like a black statue, giving people a feeling of indestructibility.

Yi Shuihan's countless figures began their formal attack, each attacking a different part of the body with palms, fists, or feet.
