Pirates: The Strongest Experimental Subject at the Beginning.

As he continued to go deeper, Huang Long saw a huge tree trunk emitting a faint green glow in the dark underground, connecting the earth above and the seabed.

Below, the dark green roots, like a spider web, are entwined in the core of the earth.

A giant black dragon was constantly gnawing at the dark green roots. The places where the roots were eaten were replaced by dark shadow power.

These dark forces continue to pour out.

There is also a tangible shadow force that is corroding the trunk of the World Tree.

"You're not dead?"

When Huang Long saw the Nidhogg black dragon, he was shocked and thought that Im was not dead.

Could it be that Im used some special ability to fake his death at the hands of Huanglong?

However, this Nidhogg black dragon ignored the human Huang Long, but quickly gnawed and corroded the roots and trunk of the World Tree.

Sensing the appearance of the Wild Dragon, the roots of the World Tree not far away turned into soft tentacles, asking for help from the Wild Dragon.

"You want me to help you get rid of it?"

Huang Long narrowed his eyes slightly, roughly understanding the meaning of these world tree roots.

These root tentacles are nodding.

"Does the curse of the sea have anything to do with you?"

The wild dragon did not immediately take action against the black dragon Nidhogg, but instead asked the world tree.

Honestly, Huang Long wanted to get rid of the curse of the sea for his own dragon abilities.

Although the sea water and seastone are no longer a big threat to the demonized wild dragon.

But this is ultimately a fatal weakness.

Moreover, Huanglong also wants to find a way to integrate multiple abilities.

He felt that the Will of the World Tree and Mother Nature might be able to do this.

He killed the black dragon Nidhogg and saved the world tree, so he should get some benefits from this.

At this moment, a light green and transparent root of the World Tree transmitted a light green energy to the Wild Dragon.

This energy instantly spread out and merged into Huang Long's mind, and even Huang Long didn't have time to react.

This frightened Huang Long so much that he quickly retreated a long distance and checked his body for any abnormalities.

Huang Long was surprised to find that his observation Haki had undergone a miraculous transformation.

“This is the power of listening to everything.”

An old voice suddenly appeared in Huang Long's mind, which made Huang Long's eyes widen and his pupils constrict.

"The observation Haki that listens to everything?"

Arlong never expected that he would obtain the signature ability of Pirate King Roger in this way.

“It makes it easier for us to communicate...”

The old voice sounded again, sounding a little painful.

"Can you give me the ability to hear everything, and the ability of Poseidon, the king of the sea, to command the sea kings? Can you also give me this?

Also, I don't want to be cursed by the sea, can this be exempted?"

Huang Long's eyes lit up. Since the World Tree has its own will and consciousness, it is truly an omnipotent treasure.

“Everything in the world needs balance.”

"If you are too powerful, it will be a disaster for the world."

"This fragile world does not need creatures that are too strong."

“In fact, the Nidhogg Black Dragon and I thrive together. The more prosperous I am, the stronger the life on the planet will be.

But if these powerful life forms are too powerful, they will cause greater damage to the world and consume more resources.

The fate of the Nidhogg Black Dragon is to destroy me, annihilate all life, and let the planet enter reincarnation again."

"That is to say, when I die, all life in this world will be annihilated, the planet will enter the twilight period of all races, darkness will engulf the world, and the black dragon Nidhogg will also die.

Until the next world tree appears, it devours the power of shadow and grows, giving rise to new life and a new civilization. "

The consciousness of the World Tree was slowly telling Huang Long the secrets of this world.

"In this case, the Nidhogg Black Dragon is also a scavenger, an important part of the planet's virtuous cycle."

Huang Long touched his chin and spoke softly, his face looking serious as he thought.

“At the beginning, I didn’t want to see everything destroyed, so I used a large amount of original power to drive the Nidhogg black dragon out of the origin land as a way to protect myself.

However, these original powers, under the will of these intelligent lives, evolved into various devil fruit abilities.

These life forms that have acquired the power of the Devil Fruit have gained greater destructive power, and the damage to the planet has become even greater."

"Thousands of years ago, the technological level of this planet had already developed to the point of destroying the world."

"Eight hundred years ago, a human merged the will and abilities of the Nidhogg Black Dragon and launched a larger-scale war, destroying a large number of dangerous technologies and powerful devil fruit users."

"Now this world is once again facing the possibility of destruction."

"Perhaps my actions of not wanting to die and not wanting to see the annihilation of all things have caused even greater damage to the world."

"Human, I now leave the choice to you."

“You can watch as the black dragon Nidhogg destroys me and this world enters the cycle of planets.

In the next civilization, there will be no Devil Fruit abilities that go against nature.

The cycle of Nidhogg the Black Dragon and the World Tree will start again.

You can also defeat and expel the black dragon Nidhogg with me again, allowing me to live again.

But you must be responsible for the lives of all races in the future, and you cannot allow powerful life forms and devil fruit users to wantonly destroy nature and the island."

"Otherwise, the next time the Nidhogg Black Dragon appears, it will be even more powerful and completely destroy the World Tree and the entire world."

The will of the World Tree continued to tell the origin of the world, and even handed the existence and destruction of the world into the hands of Huang Long.

Let Huanglong, a human being, decide the life and death of all races.

This caused Huang Long to fall into deep silence.

Is this still a choice?

If the black dragon Nidhogg is allowed to destroy the world tree, all life in the world will be annihilated, including the black dragon himself.

Will the new civilization and new creatures on the next planet have devil fruit abilities? What does this have to do with Huanglong?

He must expel the black dragon Nidhogg, allow the World Tree to flourish again, and continue the devil fruit civilization.

But why does Huanglong always feel weird?

The World Tree has developed its own will and consciousness. Is it still the original World Tree?

Even the fantasy beast will of the Nidhogg Black Dragon is reduced to instinct, so why does the consciousness of the World Tree possess such high intelligence?

Huang Long suddenly felt nervous.

Is this Heavenly Dao with consciousness still a fair and just Heavenly Dao?

Would the conscious World Tree really leave its life and death to be decided by Huanglong, a tiny human being whom it met for the first time?

Why did Huanglong feel that the consciousness of this world tree was guiding him to kill the black dragon Nidhogg?

There is really no other choice.

After all, the wild dragon will definitely not seek death on its own initiative, so it can only help the world tree eliminate the black dragon Nidhogg.

Is this a world tree that is afraid of death?

A world tree with consciousness?

Is this an innate consciousness or an acquired consciousness?

Could it even be a consciousness born from the fusion of some human beings?

At this moment, Huang Long seemed to see the health bar of the World Tree and the great treasure that was the World Tree.
