People are pirates, and a sheep comes to open the gate of heaven

Chapter 166 Overlord Color

boom!
Almost as soon as Aoun finished speaking, Rayleigh took another step forward, and his powerful and domineering overlord color almost condensed into substance at this moment.

Aoun and Yamato, who were already under tremendous pressure, felt their knees weaken and almost fell to their knees.

Just when Yamato was so weak that she couldn't keep standing even with Takeru on her back, a hand suddenly supported her.

Feeling the familiar touch from that hand, she raised her head in surprise and found that it was Aoun who had extended a helping hand to her.

Even though his whole body was trembling, even though his teeth were chattering, Aoun still persisted. Not only did he not kneel down, but he tried to support his spine.

You can't kneel down. Once you kneel down, you can't stand up again!

There seemed to be a voice in his heart that was constantly shouting. Affected by this voice, Aoun still struggled to hold on despite being sweaty.

After supporting Yamato and ensuring that she did not lose consciousness, Aoun smiled at her, then turned to look at Rayleigh and said:
"Come again, let me see how much better your domineering beauty can be?"

Rayleigh looked at Ornn silently, then suddenly dropped the bottle on the ground, then reached out and pulled out the long sword from his waist.

The sword was covered with black and red lightning visible to the naked eye, and it stopped at Ornn's neck with lightning speed.

Even though it hadn't even touched his skin, Ornn could already feel the sharpness stinging him. It seemed that just pushing it forward even an inch would be enough to separate his body.

In his two lifetimes, this was the first time that Aoun was pointed at by someone with a knife, but strangely, there was no fear in his heart, but only full of anger.

If it was him in his previous life, if someone pointed a knife at him so suddenly, he would definitely scream, and he might even kneel down and beg for mercy.

But now, he didn't feel scared, instead, many faces appeared in his mind.

Becky, who risked his life to die with him; Barty, who was defeated by himself and Yamato together, had long been corrupted; Crocodile, who still screamed that he would come back with revenge sooner or later after his defeat; insisted that he would come back no matter what. Enelu, who is a god; Moriah, who is used as a negative example by himself, always warning that he cannot become like him; Ace, who is knocked down by himself again and again, but always stubbornly gets up again...

Faces that were either persistent or depressed appeared in Aoun's mind, causing Aoun to have many strange thoughts in his trance.

For a moment, he thought, "Oh, it turns out that I am no longer the nine-to-five social worker", and for a while, he thought, "How can I fall here so easily after defeating so many people?"...

Various thoughts emerged in Aoun's mind, and finally intertwined into a figure hidden in the shadows, with only a pair of red concentric eyes showing.

Im!

Thinking of this existence that he had regarded as an imaginary enemy since the beginning of time travel, Aoun suddenly felt that his body, which had been exhausted to support him without kneeling down, was once again filled with strength.

If you choose to surrender here, what else can you say about defeating Im and becoming the freest person?

boom!
Aoun's eyes, which were originally red due to anger, suddenly burst into unprecedented light.

The momentum that had been hidden in the body finally broke out at this moment, and it burst out without giving in in the face of the heartbreaking oppression.

The sharpness in his neck seemed to disappear at this moment, and strong confidence burst out from Ornn's heart.

snort~
Red lava emerged from Ornn's palm. He raised his hand wrapped in lava and reached out to grab the long sword that was parked at his neck.

The contact between the magma and the long sword made an even harsher hissing sound, and Ornn's palm was scratched to the point of bleeding.

But he didn't even frown. He just grabbed the long sword and completely melted the blade into a pool of molten iron:
"If I die like this in the hands of a coward like you, then I would be too ridiculous, wouldn't I?"

Finally, the faint smile on Rayleigh's face disappeared.

Glancing at his sword with its blade cut off, he finally threw the sword aside:
"I haven't seen a young man like you in many years..."

Aoun did not answer his words, only looked at him with contempt.

Before he awakened his Overlord Color, he felt that the opponent's double-standard behavior was extremely cowardly. Now that he had awakened his Overlord Color, he was naturally less likely to be afraid of Rayleigh.

After using his overlord color to resist the terrifying oppression and being able to freely control his body, he felt more and more that Rayleigh had nothing to fear.

Although he is no match for Rayleigh now, he still has a lot of trump cards. He can use the fragile effect and the mark of Heart Steel to severely damage him. He can use Lion King to fight a war of attrition with him. The contract easily teleported to other areas with his crew... In short, there was nothing Rayleigh could do about him!

"Don't look at me like that, you don't know anything at all."

Perhaps because he felt that Aoun had passed his test, or perhaps because he knew that he could no longer scare the young man, Lei Li put away his overbearing attitude, only bypassed Aoun and said to Aunt Xia in the bar:

"Bring me a bottle of wine, I'm so thirsty."

Aunt Xia rolled her eyes at him, took out a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet behind her and threw it over.

During this process, her eyes unconsciously fell on Aoun, and she couldn't help but sigh:

"This little guy is more charming than you were when you were young. I'm a little impressed by him."

Leili ignored these words and just drank a large sip of wine casually. Then he licked his lips unruly, looked at Aoun and Yamato who were still confused and said:
"Boy, tell me carefully how you met Ace and Hiyori."

"What's there to say? You don't care about their life or death anyway."

Aoun scolded Rayleigh unceremoniously, and then subconsciously asked Yamato softly:
"how do you feel?"

"It's okay!" Yamato was even happier than Orn at this time:
"Aoun, you have actually awakened your overlord color. I knew you must have this aptitude, but I didn't expect that you would awaken so quickly!"

"You can't tell, it's still a seed of infatuation."

Lei Li, who had been reluctant to show his face before, now felt a sense of presence. He looked at this scene in amazement, then turned to Aunt Xia and joked:
"You see, you have no chance even if you are 30 years younger. That girl is much more beautiful than you were when you were young."

Click!

The bar made of solid wood dented a large piece when Aunt Xia's hand gently supported it, which made Lei Li laugh.

Aoun glanced at the old man who behaved shamelessly and seemed even more crooked than in the original work. After a moment of hesitation, he finally spoke: "Have you really never thought about going to see them? You obviously have this ability... …Is it really because that illusory time has not come yet?”

"Hoar?" Hearing Aoun mention that "the time has not come yet", Rayleigh finally became interested. He took another sip of wine and asked curiously:
"You seem to know something already?"

"Crox mentioned it a little bit." Ornn said this and rolled his eyes at Rayleigh again:
"Just like you, they are all mysterious Riddlers."

"The Riddler?" Rayleigh grinned, seeming to think that this statement really fits the mentality of these old guys.

"This is not a pretense, but once we publicize what Rafdrew saw, the consequences will be much more serious than O'Hara's!"

Rayleigh glanced at Robin, who was still unconscious, and threatened him deliberately.

In this regard, Aoun did not even raise his eyelids. He may have a deeper understanding of the world government than Rayleigh, so he could not be intimidated by Rayleigh.

Seeing that Aoun was not intimidated by him, Rayleigh felt a little embarrassed, so he spoke again:

"Ahem, let's get back to the topic. I really didn't want to go see Ace or Hiyori. This is the agreement that all of us in the Roger Pirates made together."

"Why?" Aoun still couldn't suppress his curiosity.

"To ensure that all plans will not go wrong."

Rayleigh took another swig of wine:
“This is a realization that all of us must bear, because no one can afford the consequences if that plan goes wrong.

To tell you the truth, I really thought that the captain's son, the one the captain hadn't revealed to any of us, would be the one responsible for that plan.

But that wasn't the case, that...didn't choose him. "

"What on earth is that?" Yamato couldn't help but ask, and then subconsciously took out Oden's voyage diary:
"Oden has always been vague about what he said in the diary, and even a few pages were deliberately torn out. What is the meaning of the prophecy that Mrs. Shi left behind, 'for twenty years on a moonlit night, nine shadows will fall from the sky'?"

"Oh, little girl, where did you get this diary?"

Reilly did not answer the question. Instead, he gently touched the diary, which was already yellowing and even somewhat damaged in many places.

"Her name is Yamato, and she is Kaido's daughter."

Aoun's voice suddenly sounded from the side, causing Rayleigh to let out another exclamation.

He looked at Yamato up and down in admiration. After looking at Yamato until he felt uncomfortable, he gave a thumbs up to Aoun:

"You are very talented. You were able to abduct that guy's daughter."

Aoun didn't want to explain more on this matter, so he knocked on the table in dissatisfaction and said:
"Answer our questions!"

"Can't answer." Rayleigh spread his hands and looked helpless:

"We made a vow at the beginning not to tell anyone what we saw there. If you really want to know all that, then go find out for yourself. Maybe you in the future will also He will become just like me."

Listening to Rayleigh's words, Aoun couldn't help but sneer again:
"So it's pretty much what I think. You can help any guy who has nothing to do with the so-called prophecy, and you can risk your life to help the executor of the so-called 'plan' that will appear in the future. .

But you will only not lend a helping hand to Ace or Hiyori. Just because they are related to the so-called prophecy, so you have to watch them suffer all kinds of suffering, and then paralyze yourself with high-sounding reasons, such as this. Everything is a necessary sacrifice to advance the plan, right? "

As soon as Aoun said these words, the cheerful smile on Rayleigh's face finally disappeared.

Looking at his heavy expression, Aoun couldn't help but sneered again:
"Sure enough, what I said is absolutely correct, you are just a coward."

Rayleigh looked at Aoun, and after a long time he said in a deep voice:
"When we were young, we never expected anyone to help us. As our juniors, I believe they have the strength and courage to overcome the difficulties they face."

"Stop fucking changing your ideas there!"

Aoun suddenly cursed:
"Let me ask you, why did you cut through the waves and work so hard to reach Lafdru? Is it just to become the so-called Pirate King?"

Rayleigh couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this. They had worked so hard to reach Rafdru, and of course it was not for the false name of Pirate King.

"You arrived at Ravdru, after seeing all the secrets, you were burdened with pain and lived in anonymity until now, isn't it just to promote the plan and bring about great changes in the world that can affect all of us?

Although I don’t know what that great change is, I do know that the ultimate goal of achieving that great change must be to make everyone in this world live a better life than they do now, right? "

Having said this, Aoun slapped his hands:
"But now, you can't even protect your captain's son or your friend's daughter... What do you think you are holding on to?"

As soon as Aoun said these words, Rayleigh was completely stunned.

For the first time, he had doubts about everything they had done in the past few years.

"No, what you said is wrong. The reason why I did this is to ensure that there are no mistakes in this plan. We have to make meaningful sacrifices for the happiness of more people."

"But in my opinion, if you can't even protect the person you want to protect the most, such persistence is meaningless at all.

Besides, why do you think that their life and death will have a huge and irreversible impact on that bullshit plan.

Is it possible that even if you help Ace and Hiyori, it won't have any impact on the plan?
Is it possible that some guys who have nothing to do with you and should be damned have their fate changed by your random gang, but instead lead to the complete collapse of your long-awaited plan? "

Raleigh had never felt so confused.

At this moment, it seemed that there were two voices constantly arguing in his mind. One was saying that all your persistence in the past was meaningful, and the other was saying that what Aoun said actually made sense. Compared with the plan, all people and things are so small, so why do you think that any of your actions will completely collapse that great plan?

Looking at Rayleigh who was completely in chaos, Aoun finally showed a satisfied smile.

He didn't know if his words could change Rayleigh, but he was sure that after he finished speaking his inner thoughts, his thoughts would definitely be clear.
