After hearing Rhine's words, the corners of Golden Lion's eyes couldn't help but twitch violently. Especially Rhine's phrase "the weak are angry, but they draw their blades on the weaker" totally danced in the Golden Lion's minefield.

"Damn boy, you dare to say something like that to me!!!" But even so, Golden Lion was still not angry. Judging from the way he spit out the cigar from the corner of his mouth and put it aside, it was clear he was approaching the tipping point.

"What are you doing here? It shouldn't be just spitting bullsh*t, right?" Golden Lion asked with a sneer.

"Of the three great pirates, the one I admire the most is you, Mr. Golden Lion. I like your way of doing things," Rhine still smiled and said. "And I taking the liberty to visit you today is to give you the best ending for you, Senior."

Unlike the sanctimonious Roger and Whitebeard who collect sons everywhere, the Golden Lion represents the truly evil pirate. If you like treasure, grab it; if you like a woman, go get her; and if you meet an enemy, kill them. This is also Rhine's style.

"Best ending?" Golden Lion raised his eyebrows.

"That's right," Dark energy began to emerge from Rhine's upper body and started to eat away at the floor of the hall. The scalps of the many utility pirates present felt numb. "Death in battle. This is the best ending for a pirate, and the person who defeated you is the one who will be the new king of the sea. You shouldn't have any complaints, right? Senior!"

In Rhine's view, Golden Lion is a legendary great pirate. It's a joke to be defeated by Luffy, who doesn't even master Haki.

It is a misfortune he was defeated by Luffy and picked up by the Marines. The Marines lied that he was defeated by them, not Luffy. This can be regarded as retaining the last trace of his face.

Otherwise, it's really a shame. Later, Blackbeard made a big fuss in Impel Down and released a large number of prisoners. And Golden Lion didn't come out a second time.

There must be only one reason—shortly after being thrown back into Impel Down, he died in his cell. This ending, compared with Roger and Whitebeard, is really too bad.

The gravitational force of the Dark-Dark Fruit began to devour and crush the hall floor, wine tables, chairs, and other things. The terrified pirates fled to the second floor in fright.

"Liberation!" In the next moment, darkness erupted, and the crushed things rained down on the Golden Lion like a torrential downpour. Facing this scene, the corners of Golden Lion's mouth curled up slightly, and he raised his leg violently. A huge golden sword roared out, cutting the falling dark shock wave in two.

Boom! But even so, the shock wave that was split in half and fell to the ground still shook the entire airship.

"Jie ha ha ha! After all, isn't it you who came here to kill me?" Golden Lion stood up abruptly, his whole body bursting out with a fierce hostility that had not been seen for a long time. "Then come and try!"

"When the strong are angry, they draw their blades towards the stronger, and when the weak are angry, they draw their blades towards the weaker? If that's the case, this old man will see which one he belongs to!" Golden Lion jumped up, his feet turning into whips and swinging around. In the blink of an eye, dozens of huge golden crescent slashes were drawn.

"Lion's Thousand Slice Valley!"

Seeing this exaggerated sword energy that can cut a mountain with every shot, Rhine raised his eyebrows slightly. "How the heck did Luffy beat the Golden Lion when he can do this kind of thing right now? This level of plot armor is not inferior to when he later transformed into Nika and beat Kaido!"

"Don't try to hurt my brother!" The nimble and fat Weevil jumped up, and with all his strength, he slashed out a white sword aura. Boom! The two violent swords collided together, and the majestic and magnificent palaces around them collapsed as fragile as tofu.

"Wow ah ah!" "Help! Help!" "Boss Golden Lion! Don't fight here! We're still here!" Rhine couldn't even see the trash gathered by the Golden Lion and said flatly: "Perona, these trash can be your toys."

After speaking, Rhine rushed out directly. Stepping on Weevil's back, using it as a springboard, he cut through the shock wave and moved very close to the Golden Lion in the blink of an eye. "Dark Water!" Rhine's right hand overflowed with dark fluctuations. Golden Lion looked up at Rhine's black hand, and his body began to move towards that side uncontrollably, as if an invisible hand was pulling him.

"What is that ability!?" Golden Lion's face changed in shock. But it took less than half a second for him to react, and he waved his big hand fiercely. "Lion Majesty!" The throne behind him, surrounded by endless sundries, suddenly flew up and rushed towards Rhine overwhelmingly.

"Slave Arrow!" Hancock's left index finger tapped on her other hand and pulled out a huge heart. The right hand made a bow and arrow movement. She let it go and shot countless heart-shaped arrows in an instant, petrifying everything the Golden Lion leaves behind.

"Stinky boy, I didn't expect that ability to be obtained by you," A bit of disbelief also appeared on Golden Lion's face. "Oh? Does Mister Golden Lion know the former user of this ability?" Rhine asked with interest. "Hmph! That's an ability that a person I hate once had," Golden Lion said coldly.

Rumble——

When Golden Lion's voice fell, the whole palace collapsed. The night sky revealed the outside world, and the dozens of islands floating in midair around it were the "STRONG WORLD" cultivated by Golden Lion to destroy East Blue in the past 20 years.

"Hey~ I feel that things are not good. I'd better run away first." Noticing the increasingly dangerous atmosphere, Perona, who was using her ghost fruit ability to play with the stupid pirates, swallowed secretly. Immediately, she hurriedly used her floating ability to escape quickly.

"I thought the Seven Warlords of the Sea were just slaves of the government, but I didn't expect there are still capable guys in it," Golden Lion restrained his initial contempt, looked at Rhine, Weevil, and Hancock standing side by side in front of him, and raised his eyebrows with a smile.

"But three-on-one... boy, don't you think you're a little despicable?"

"Unfortunately, I still have a very important thing to do in a few days, so I hope it will be resolved quickly." Less than a week has passed since he handed Luffy to the Marines. If it is like Ace vs. Jinbei in the original Anime, or Aokiji vs. Akainu, fighting for five days and five nights at every turn, ten days and ten nights and so on. Who wants to do it?

Rhine said again with no guilt on his face: "And we're pirates. It doesn't matter if I am despicable or not. I'm not a hypocrite like Roger, and I don't care about morality. It's bullsh*t."

However, as soon as these words came out, the Golden Lion, who had managed to maintain his composure just now, suddenly became furious. He saw Golden Lion clench his right hand into a fist and raise it high into the sky, angrily saying: "Boy, you are not qualified to judge Roger!"

Terrifying energy diffused. The ruins and dust that were smashed and filled the area gathered in an instant and turned into several huge lion heads. "This guy, why is he so angry all of a sudden?"

Hancock wondered. "This guy is a fan of Gol D. Roger. I suspect he's gay," Rhine shrugged and smiled. Rhine thinks Golden Lion's attitude towards Roger is really gay. After learning that Roger was imprisoned in Impel Down, he went to Marineford alone. In the end, he also got himself captured.

It was later he heard that Roger was executed in East Blue. Shiki thinks that the majestic Pirate King should not have died in the weakest sea. So if you change the gender of Golden Lion, it will be a proper yandere attribute.

"Lion Majesty: Earth Coiling!" At this time, Golden Lion waved his hand. The huge wild lions formed by the condensed debris roared and bit at the three people. As expected, it is a Devil Fruit that can be compared with the strongest Paramecia, the Gura Gura no Mi. As long as it is a non-living thing touched by the Golden Lion's hand, no matter how far and big it is, it will be controlled by him.

"Hancock, you don't have the moves to deal with large-scale attacks. Stand back a little," Rhine reminded Hancock, then said with squinted eyes: "Weevil."

"Yes, Brother!" The two are on the left and the right. Weevil's weaponry was filled with Armament Haki, and the naginata turned completely black.

A tsunami of darkness roared from Rhine's body, bursting out into darkness that swallowed everything. The next moment, Weevil slashed out with a sword aura, cutting the roaring lion group into two. Immediately before the Golden Lion could control them, endless darkness swallowed them.

"I'll give it back to you, Mister Golden Lion." Rhine's arms jerked. The "corpse" of the lion group surrounded by darkness smashed towards their master like meteorites. "Damn you son of a b*tch!" Golden Lion cursed angrily. In desperation, he could only fly back quickly, while Rhine controlled the 'corpse' to pursue him. In the end, Golden Lion could only move one of the "STRONG WORLD" under his control to use it as a shield for temporary resistance.

"I didn't expect that I would need to waste a 'STRONG WORLD' to deal with you, kid, but there is no other way. You just die like this!" With a roar, the Golden Lion controlled the huge island and threw it towards Rhine and his group.

"Isn't this too exaggerated?!" The female pirates on the Kuja Pirates ship in the distance were dumbfounded. Even if they are far enough apart, they were still frightened by Golden Lion's fighting style. Throwing an island like a baseball, this is too shocking.

"Brother, let me—" Facing the huge island that covered the sky, Weevil took a step and was ready to use his full strength to split the island. "Don't worry, let me handle this," Rhine, however, motioned Weevil to get out of the way. Clenching his hands into fists, he punched in the next second. The Dark-Dark Fruit was fully unleashed. The dark tsunami of nearly 100 meters was like a giant beast opening its mouth, swallowing the giant island falling from the sky into its throat.

However, even the Dark-Dark Fruit, which claims to be able to devour everything, is somewhat reluctant to "eat" such a large island. A drop of cold sweat dripped from the side of Rhine's face. But fortunately, it finally succeeded. "Dark Vortex!"
