As time went by, the battle between Xia Chen and Golden Lion became more and more intense. The ground of the half of Gaya Island where the Demon Valley Town was located had turned over and over again.
This was the case when Xia Chen and Golden Lion were mostly fighting in the air, otherwise it was unknown what would happen to this half of the island.
At this time, a large group of people gathered here a few dozen kilometers away from the battle between the two.
At the moment the battle just happened, all the people in the Demon Valley Town evacuated. Except for a few unlucky guys who ran slowly, all the others were here.
At this time, they were watching the two people fighting in the distance, although they could no longer see their figures at this distance.
But they could feel the shock waves coming from time to time and see the ground surging from time to time.
"This… What level of strong man is this!"
One of the pirates asked tremblingly.
But after he said this, no one answered him, and they were all immersed in the power of destroying the world.
"So there is such a strong man?" A pirate with yellow hair and an ugly smiley face pattern on his arm murmured in a low voice while watching this scene.
At this time, a pirate next to him said: "I was still there when the battle broke out. One of the fighters was the demon king Xia Chen, who was offered a bounty of 800 million. I don't know who the other one is."
"800 million?"
The pirates around couldn't help but take a breath of cold air when this number came out, and then they all looked at the yellow-haired man who had just murmured.
Because the other party was Bellamy, who had the highest bounty among this group of people, but even if the bounty was the highest, it was only 55 million Baileys, which was completely different from 800 million.
At this time, a group of people came behind them, also staring at the battle in the distance in a daze.
The arrival of this group of people also attracted everyone's attention. Seeing this group of people constantly pushing to the front, several pirates couldn't help but jumped out and cursed:
"Hey, kid! Why are you pushing? Are you looking for death?"
But these people ignored him and continued to push forward. The pirate who saw this scene couldn't help it.
Where did this young boy come from? How dare he ignore him!
Just when he was about to teach the other party a lesson, a companion around him grabbed him tightly.
"Hey, what are you doing?" He turned his head in dissatisfaction, but saw the frightened expression on his companion's face.
"He… They are the Straw Hat Pirates! The companions of the Demon King Xia Chen!!"
"What!!!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at them in shock.
Yes, they were Luffy and his friends. When they saw Xia Chen running over from a distance, they knew that things were not simple.
Out of concern for Xia Chen, even though Xia Chen told them to wait for him first, they still couldn't help but follow.
But they did not move forward. Judging from the current battle situation, this battle was no longer something they could intervene in.
Luffy looked up, feeling the shock waves, and could not help but whisper.
"Xia Chen…"
——
"Shiki! You are really old, and you are no longer the lion you used to be!"
Xia Chen smiled at the golden lion opposite, but this smile touched a knife wound on his chest. A pain came over him, and he couldn't help but grin.
At this time, Xia Chen had a narrow knife wound on his chest that almost spanned his entire upper body, and blood splattered. This was accidentally cut by Shiki during the fight just now.
Fortunately, he had an indestructible body. This knife wound looked scary, but it only cut his outer flesh and blood, and it almost hurt the bones.
Xia Chen's mind moved, and the injuries on his body recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon he became as white as he was at the beginning.
Shi Ji on the opposite side couldn't help but twitch his mouth after seeing this scene.
"Boy, what kind of fruit do you have? Are you being a bit shameless? Is the recovery speed of this injury so fast?"
"Guess!" Xia Chen smiled faintly.
Upon hearing this, Shi Ji glared at Xia Chen and cursed:
"I'm an old man who is about to be buried, and I'm still guessing?"
"That can't be helped, I just don't want to tell you!" Xia Chen spread his hands, looking like he deserved a beating.
"Good boy, hahaha…"
"I find you are quite to my taste, how about being my subordinate?"
Shi Ji first said to Xia Chen, and then looked at his tattered clothes and some wounds on his body.
The admiration in his eyes when he looked at Xia Chen was even stronger.
Even though his strength has declined a lot now, he is still confident in himself. The young man on the opposite side can force him to this point, which is not something that ordinary people can do.
Originally, he just saw that this kid was quite strong and wanted toI was just stretching my body, but I didn't expect to get such a reward in the end.
"Sorry, I'm not interested!" Xia Chen said lightly.
"And… you just ruined my good thing, it would be unreasonable if I didn't kill you!"
Golden Lion's eyes turned cold when he heard this.
"Boy, I lowered myself to win you over because I saw that you have the potential to become a strong man. Don't be shameless!"
"What's wrong with being shameless? Do you know that the name of my hometown village is Mang Village?"
"And I need your approval to know whether I can become a strong man? Even now, I think my strength can occupy a place in the world!"
Unexpectedly, Golden Lion laughed when he heard this.
"Hahaha… Boy, you are the only one who is strong? Do you know how broad the sea is? A young man like you is not my opponent at all in my prime!"
And Xia Chen sneered when he heard this.
"A hero never talks about his past achievements. At least now you are like a lost dog. You can't even defeat an opponent like me who is not your match!"
The Golden Lion's expression darkened at a visible speed after hearing Xia Chen's words.
Then he launched an attack without saying anything.
"Lion Chikiriguchi!"
The Golden Lion's legs danced quickly, kicking out countless sword qi similar to the chopping wave, but the power was stronger than the chopping wave.
Looking at the incoming sword qi, Xia Chen's face also became solemn. Facing this move, he must be alert, otherwise he may be seriously injured at any time.
Xia Chen's mind moved, and his clone came to his left.
The Golden Lion's move covered too wide a range. No matter how he dodged, he would be hit.
In this case, let's just go head-to-head and use the sea to fight this move.
As the Golden Lion's sword qi came in front of Xia Chen, his momentum was also completed.
Ba Hai blasted out instantly, annihilating all the sword energy along the way, and the other sword energy that hit the sea directly cut countless cracks on the sea surface.
And Ba Hai did not disappear after annihilating these sword energies, but continued to blast towards the golden lion…
