Chapter 131

"And it feels like those weapons are better than yours, Captain," Yasopp said as he looked at his Captain.

"Better than my Gryphon?" As he observed the fight, he said, "Even Mihawk's Yoru looks worse than them. He'd be furious if he knew such a powerful weapon was being used like an arrow, hahaha." Shanks laughed at the thought of his friend's anger.

"The golden man said that it was his Noble Phantasm. In other words, there's a good chance that other, more powerful weapons are still inside." Benn Beckman approached while voicing his opinion, "If those weapons were able to withstand the former Admiral, what would happen if he used a more powerful Noble Phantasm?"

"Haha, you overthink, Beckman." Yasopp said as he patted his partner's shoulder, "With all of those powerful weapons he showed, is it possible for him to keep a much more powerful weapon? No way."

"For this specific matter, perhaps we can ask him; he should know." Ben Beckman shook his head as he looked at Marshal Blue.

Standing not far from Shanks' group, Vermillion heard their conversation well. When he realized Shanks and his comrades were staring at him, he said, "My friend once accumulated a lot of treasures. Although the weapons he uses now look okay, but that's about it. There's still something stronger inside."

"Really?!" Yasopp was wide-eyed.

Receiving this response, Vermillion just smiled playfully.

"Knowing all these things, I'm sure that your group is the richest in the entire ocean. Compared to us, we're like poor pirates, hahaha!" Shanks laughed.

"We're poor because you spend so much money, Captain." Ben Beckman covered his face as he shook his head.

While Shanks and his crew chatted, Zephyr, fighting Gilgamesh, began gritting his teeth. Covering his entire body with Armament Haki, Zephyr combined it with Tekkai to further strengthen his defenses.

After shielding his entire body with the highest defense, Zephyr ran towards his enemy without regard for the opponent's attacks. Although two layers of super protection had covered his body, the weapons could still inflict several cuts.

The seemingly insane act proved quite effective; from the distance between the two, Zephyr now managed to get close to Gilgamesh. While enduring a slashing wound, he slammed his Armament Haki-covered fist right into the Hero King's head!

Facing the opponent's attack, Gilgamesh remained calm. Just as the fist was about to hit his head, in the blink of an eye, four chains instantly tied Zephyr's body.

"What?! Damn it!" Zephyr grumbled as he tried to remove the chains that bound him forcefully. However, the struggle only strengthened the chains even more.

"It's no use, Instructor." Gilgamesh pointed the tip of the sword right at Zephyr's forehead.

"I yield." Zephyr finally stopped his struggle. Although he didn't want to lose, but with his body in chains and a sword ready to slash his head, he couldn't help but admit his defeat.
