Chapter 294 The Kingdom of Food
"White Ghost! I am not your slave!"
Having said that, in the face of Adrian's orders and instructions, the Golden Lion obviously had no possibility of refusing.
Holding the psionic lightsaber in both hands, the golden lion in the soul state burst out at a terrifying high speed comparable to the Piaopiao Fruit bonus. The long sword in his hand slashed towards Shanks from top to bottom, streaking across the air. Dark blue fluorescence.
Facing the sudden attack, Shanks's pupils bloomed with red light, and his domineering aura instantly turned on. His figure was like a flexible and twisted fish, he swam lightly and narrowly avoided the slash. hit.
Subsequently.
The [Deadwood] he had just obtained in Shanks' hand turned into a white line shining with a cold light, stabbing into the golden lion's chest at a tricky angle.
"Jie hahahaha!"
The experienced Golden Lion obviously anticipated Shanks' counterattack. He laughed heartily, but showed no tendency to dodge, allowing the dead wood in Shanks' hand to pass through his chest without any hindrance.
Shanks had no doubt that he was there, and with a little faster speed in his hand, the dead wood was picked up by the roaring wind and penetrated directly through the body of the golden lion.
However.
In Shanks' shocked eyes, the blade of the famous deadwood sword clearly penetrated the golden lion's body, but it seemed to penetrate a piece of empty air, failing to cause any harm to the opponent!
"What!"
Shanks exclaimed.
The golden lion used both hands to grasp the two psionic lightsabers that were similar to those of Ying Ju and Ku Mu. He slashed down with his backhand and struck hard at Shanks who was buried in front of him!
At this critical moment.
Shanks quickly withdrew the dead wood, and at the same time slightly bent his legs. A majestic force exploded under his feet. He quickly retreated, his forearms and wrists swinging together. The dead wood's sword drew an arc in mid-air and stood horizontally. In front of you.
Dangdang——
There were two crisp collision sounds, and the two psionic lightsabers in the hands of the golden lion struck Shanks' dead wood hard.
"How can I, who have transformed into a ghost, be afraid of this mere metal sword?"
The golden lion glanced at the dead wood in Shanks' hand with dismay. It was an old friend who had accompanied him in battles for many years, but now he was attacking his former master.
Adrian, who was watching the battle, couldn't help but curl his lips.
Even in the soul state, the perception and speed ability that the Golden Lion can explode are definitely far beyond Shanks's extreme reaction.
What's more, the Golden Lion's own swordsmanship level is undoubtedly the level of the world's top swordsman, and it can even crush Shanks at this stage.
However, at this time, it was under the deliberate control of this golden retriever loser.
The battle between him and Shanks actually showed a strange "evenly matched" state!
In the original book, during the war, when Sengoku fought Luffy, there was probably only so much sea released...
Did everyone really have this ability to love houses and birds in the old days?
Or is it that after seeing the supreme straw hat, the golden lion's strength will automatically be reduced by a percentage?
"Shiki, if Shanks is still unharmed."
Adrian suddenly spoke and took the initiative to interfere in the still "evenly divided" swordsmanship competition in the field.
"Then the person who will be injured is probably you."
Because you love Roger, do you love Shanks?
So how can my golden leek thrive?
"I'm not your slave! White Ghost!!"
The golden lion's face darkened, and he instantly recalled the pain of losing his memory.
Then he roared angrily, and the nether energy lightsaber he held in both hands fired out one after another faster and faster whirling sword light.
Shanks walked steadily, retreating step by step, but he could very clearly feel the force transmitted from the dead wood sword to his hand, which became stronger each time.
But even though I feel this increasingly powerful force.
Shanks still has no solution.
Facing the Golden Lion, which surpassed him in strength and speed, it was good to be able to maintain a defensive state!
Shanks used the famous deadwood sword in his hand to protect his surroundings.
Dang——
There was another collision sound like gold and iron.
The golden lion's last spinning slash made Shanks' arms tremble, and his body couldn't help but lean back slightly.
"Damn little devil!"
The golden lion roared angrily, slashed diagonally towards Shanks with his left-hand psionic lightsaber to reveal his flawed abdomen, and at the same time raised his right-hand lightsaber upwards.
Shanks was caught off guard and could only forcefully change his sword stance. He barely used the 'dead wood' to hold the lightsaber cut from the right side of his body. He tried his best to dodge, but was still hit by the headwind from the left side. Injured torso.
Chi——
The extremely sharp psionic lightsaber easily cut through Shanks' clothes and left a shallow scar on his left rib. The blood that poured out instantly dyed his clothes mottled red.
"..."
Adrian opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Although the Golden Lion did hold back this time, it still left Shanks with an injury, which was very consistent with the requirements he mentioned before.
An attack that can't be faulted.
What a painstaking effort!
"Jie hahahaha! Straw hat boy, swordsmanship is not just for resisting!"
Once the attack was successful, the Golden Lion did not take advantage of the victory to pursue him, but stood on the spot and lectured Shanks.
"I know!"
Shanks endured the strong stinging pain on his left rib and gritted his teeth.
"Besides, my name is Shanks! Not Straw Hat!"
"It's all the same! Straw Hat!"
The golden lion waved his hand carelessly, and then started doing his homework.
"Are you from Donghai?"
"I am from Xihai!"
While Shanks was dealing with Golden Lion's questions, he was trying his best to search for the ability to deal with the soul body.
Armed and domineering...
I don’t know if it will work!
The dark and rich armed domineering energy appeared on Shanks' forearm, and instantly clung to the blade of the 'Deadwood', turning the sword into a 'black sword' instantly!
Holding the 'Black Sword' in hand, Shanks swung his sword forward again.
The golden lion seemed to have noticed Adrian's concern, snorting coldly, and stepped forward as well.
The two-handed lightsaber swung into an airtight curtain of light, blocking Shanks' attacks one by one.
"No speed!"
"Strength is not enough!"
"Compared with Roger, you are still far behind! Little Straw Hat!"
……
Just when the Golden Lion and Shanks started a yin and yang fencing battle.
The Abyss is also slowly sailing towards the next target island.
"Food Kingdom" Xinoxia!
The Kingdom of Xinoxia, located in Guadalajara, the Autumn Island of the Grand Line, is a kingdom famous for its food and its national flower is the cactus.
As early as when Adrian decided on this last entertainment and food route, the last three islands reserved were——
The Kingdom of Movies - The Kingdom of Bollywood!
Food Kingdom—Sinoxia Kingdom!
Flower Kingdom - Spring Queen City!
The last Queen City of Spring, due to indescribable reasons, will not be mentioned for the time being.
The Kingdom of Xenoxia has been known as a gourmet destination in the paradise stage of the Grand Line since hundreds of years ago.
The reason for being able to receive such an honor is not because the Kingdom of Xinoxia has produced any world-renowned super chefs, but because of the strange and special delicacies of this food kingdom.
The most famous one is the "taco" named after the royal family!
The base of this delicacy is a pancake fried with corn. Customers can add charcoal-grilled chicken strips or beef sauce according to their own preferences, and then add tomatoes, shredded lettuce, cheese and other ingredients. It is full of color and flavor. .
besides.
The reputation of the Kingdom of Xinoxia as the "Insect-eating Kingdom" has also attracted many foodies with curious personalities to visit.
"Tequila" is also one of the most important specialties of the Kingdom of Xinoxia, and is even known as the soul of the Kingdom of Xinoxia.
This kind of wine, which tastes slightly spicy and has a slightly sweet taste, is also a very popular best-seller in this sea.
Among those anecdotes about tequila.
With her charming eyes, proud figure, sweet voice and other characteristics, the "Tequila Girl" is undoubtedly the most popular subject of discussion among the public.
It's a pity that even the citizens of the Kingdom of Xinoxia have never witnessed the beauty of the Tequila girl.
Three days later.
The Abyss, which departed from the Kingdom of Baliwood, successfully arrived at Guadalajada Island, where the Kingdom of Shinosha is located.
"Adrian sama!" Love looked at the outline of Guadalajada Island in the distance, her eyes full of expectation, "Is this the legendary food kingdom?"
“Maybe it’s not just a food kingdom.”
Adrian also looked at the island famous for its food.
The island, especially its national flower and famous delicacy "taco", gave Adrian a very strong sense of déjà vu.
There is no doubt about it.
The Kingdom of Shenosha, like the previous "Kingdom of Baliwood", is also a strange island based on a country in the previous life.
And it can be seen from the "Taco" that the burrito is not gone...
As we all know, in addition to Mexican food, there is another very famous specialty in that area.
Poison...
Love looked over curiously, "Does the Food Kingdom have any other titles?"
"No, no, I don't know."
Adrian cleanly threw out three consecutive hits.
Reality reflects the story, but it may just be a wild guess.
Shanks, who had been practicing swordsmanship (beating) for three days at the hands of the golden lion, now had several more bandages on his body.
Hearing Love's words, he couldn't help but said: "Actually, I think Totland of All Nations and the Boing Islands are more in line with the reputation of a food kingdom than the so-called Shenoxia Kingdom!"
"I know Totland of All Nations! It's where that fat pink-haired granny lives! Adrian Sama has been there before!"
Love raised her arms as if to show off.
Shanks' mouth twitched slightly, it turned out that Adrian had fought with that scary old witch Charlotte Lingling...
It is indeed a monster!
Love asked: "But where are the Boeing Islands?"
"It is a unique archipelago that blooms like a flower. The forests on the island are full of all kinds of food with alluring aromas."
Shanks said as he recalled.
"Hot dog bushes, bread stones, candy cane weeds, ramen waterfalls... Similar to Totland of All Nations, the Boeing Islands is also an island full of delicious food. Everything on the island, even if it looks inedible, is actually edible. , and it tastes pretty good!”
at this time.
Adrian also recalled what the "Boeing Islands" mentioned by Shanks were.
That was the place where Usopp trained alone during the two years of training of the Straw Hat Pirates.
That dreamy island filled with all kinds of tempting food is actually several carnivorous plants named Stormak Baron (Stomach Baron) floating in the sea.
Since plant foods with strong aromas can be found everywhere on the island, creatures such as Neptune are often attracted to feed the Baron of the Stomach.
In short, this seemingly perfect food island is actually almost equivalent to an oversized pitcher plant. Through the food scattered on the island, it attracts and captures those "little fat pigs" whose mouths are full of oil. "prey.
"The Baron of the Stomach seems a bit interesting...I wonder if there is a soul..."
While Love and Shanks were discussing which island had more delicious food, Totland of All Nations or the Boeing Islands.
The Abyss also slowly docked at the port of Guadalajada Island.
Doctor Moi originally wanted to take the initiative to take on the responsibility of guarding the Abyss like last time.
However, Adrian waved his hand to stop him.
"Rumi, bring Love, the Abyss and Dr. Moi into the castle."
Adrian said softly.
"Shanks, grab your 'deadwood' and get ready for battle."
"There may be a unique competition waiting for us in this food kingdom."
Second update.
