One Piece: The Legend of Beasts

In just a moment, brilliant light burst out.

The indestructible pendulum clock was instantly blown to ashes, the iron chain broke into pieces and turned into powder. The huge shock wave swept everything behind, swallowing up countless houses and rushing towards the distance in a mighty manner.

In the banquet hall of the royal palace, people were enjoying the royal delicacies exclusively prepared, still immersed in the atmosphere of feasting and revelry.

A blinding white light suddenly obscured their vision.

Then, the wall suddenly exploded, and before the nobles could understand what was happening, they were swallowed up by the roaring shockwave. Tempaz, who was drinking, suddenly saw the thrilling scene in front of him, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he stood up suddenly, grabbed the backs of King Pecunia and Herjog with both hands, and jumped to the side.

The huge shock wave crushed wall after wall, and its momentum remained unabated, stirring the air to form a violent whistling sound, and it smashed into the sea with unstoppable force, opening up a path and raising waves hundreds of meters high that ravaged the surrounding seas.

Because the great impact was in the opposite direction, the pirate ship stopped after a short period of violent shaking, and the hull did not suffer serious wear and tear. However, the people on the ship could not bear it and fell to the ground in shock.

"Cough cough!"

Katakuri tried hard to stay standing, looking towards the port with his eyes open.

Amid the billowing smoke, four figures of different heights could be vaguely seen.

"Well, well, well! I finally escaped from this broken clock! You're finally reliable for once!"

"Humph! I want to find that time to settle accounts with that bastard! Speaking of which, I've grown old for so long that I'm a little unused to the present."

"Huh~ I almost broke out in a cold sweat just now."

"Ohh! My strong body is back!"

As they spoke, Kaido and Linlin strode out of the thick smoke, followed by Uno and the jumping bun. At this moment, the four of them returned to their original appearance.

The two tall giants each carried a weapon in their hands, and their eyes looked forward at the same time.

As far as the eye could see, all the buildings had been cleared out, and a huge ditch had been dug out on the ground, up to a hundred meters wide, extending all the way to the sea opposite the island.

"Compared to the power of the first time, it's completely different..."

Kaido half-knelt on the ground with his mace, panting heavily, "Of course, Haki will also be rapidly consumed!"

"But the effect presented may be even more powerful than the legendary hegemony."

The old lady wiped the sweat off her forehead and said with a smile, "How about we call this move 'Sea Domination'?"

Kaido slowly stood up and showed his signature grin: "Oh ha ha ha! A sea that is countless times larger than a country? You are really ambitious!"

"How can you survive at sea without this ambition?"

"Compared to this, it seems that there are still some unresolved issues."

Kaido and Linlin turned around at the same time and shifted their gaze to the pirate ship that was fixed with iron chains.

"What? How did they escape?"

"Didn't Mr. Tempaz say that his prison of time would never be broken?"

"He must be just bragging. Outsiders are unreliable after all!"

The soldiers on the ship struggled to stand up, and suddenly saw the four people successfully escape from the clock. They stood there in a daze, and in an instant the noise became loud again.

Katakuri felt indescribably happy when he saw this scene. He and the three Charlotte brothers ran to the bow and shouted their mother's name excitedly: "Mom!"

"Well, well, well! I didn't expect you guys to hold on until now! You're worthy of being my children!"

Lingling waved to them, laughing uncontrollably. The next moment, her eyes turned to the soldiers again, her face darkened, and she said, "You must have been prepared to hurt my children like this! Katakuri, what are you still standing there for? Go back to the house!"

She winked at Uno, who immediately understood. He tore off four pieces of cloth from his gloves, handed him the long bread and asked him to stuff it into his ears. He then looked at Kaido meaningfully and said, "I don't think you need this."

"What?"

Uno smiled and did not answer Kaido, whose face was full of question marks. He stuffed the remaining cloth into his ears.

The four Charlotte brothers looked at each other, not knowing what their mother meant, but they did as she said and ran back into the house while no one was paying attention to them.

Lingling took a deep breath and instantly let out a deafening roar, like thunder: "Life or Salve! Choose one for yourself!"

The captivating sound echoed in the surroundings. The soldiers from the Kingdom of Etel felt dizzy and their bodies twitched. Their consciousness was gradually fading away.

Then, fluid substances rose from their bodies and flew quickly in the same direction. Lingling grabbed the fluid substances flying towards her and threw them to the ground. When the fluid substances merged into the ruins on the ground, the bricks seemed to have life, growing facial features, standing up one after another, and shouting in unison: "Mom! What do you want?!"

"Attack the palace immediately, and kill anyone who dares to stop us!"

"Yes! Mom!"

Accompanied by laughter and cheers, the bricks jumped and swarmed towards the palace.

At the dock and on the pirate ship, the soldiers were lying on the ground in all directions, their eyes were bleary-eyed, as if only their shells were left.

"I was really shocked."

Uno let out a sigh of relief, and just as he took off the cloth from his ears, he heard a pair of vulgar words filled with disdain.

"Is the result the same as before? What a false alarm!" Kaido stood with his arms folded across his chest, his face expressionless.

Uno smiled awkwardly: "Not everyone is like you, Mr. Kaido."

Kaido picked his nose nonchalantly: "Really?"

The two of them were talking to each other word by word, and Lingling was so shocked that she almost dropped the knife in her hand.

—That brat! Did you ignore my soul spell while I was unconscious? Only Rocks, Newgate, and Roger could do that before!

—Maybe that guy really has the potential to become the king... What are you thinking? I am the one and only king!

Thinking of this, Lingling gradually regained her composure. She pointed her long sword at the gap and shouted with full energy, "The long bread will stay here to guard the pirate ship, and the rest of you will follow me to take down King Pecunia's head!"

"Oh hehe! I can't wait!"

Kaido laughed wildly, and without waiting for Linlin and Uno to act, he stepped on the chasm and rushed forward. He could hear the woman's shouting and cursing from behind him from afar.

"Your Majesty, are you okay?!"

"My king is fine...but...what is going on?"

King Pecunia collapsed on the ground, and slowly stood up with the help of Herjog. He stared at the hole pierced by the shock wave in shock, and had a clear view of the sea in the distance.

"That was really dangerous. Even for me, if I were hit head-on, I would be instantly shattered."

Tanpaz looked around and saw that the resplendent hall had been reduced to ruins. A bottomless pit appeared on the floor, extending to the edge of the wall. Most of the nobles who were talking and laughing just now had disappeared. The remaining scattered people were lying on the ground that was not affected, groaning constantly.

Tempaz turned a blind eye to the situation, shifting his gaze to the original pit and pondering for a moment.

—Hmm, there are only a few people in the world who can do such a terrifying destructive power... Could it be Rocks? No, as far as we know, he always makes a big show when he personally goes out, it is impossible for him to send only such a small number of people, not to mention that we have already observed that there are no other suspicious ships around... Wait, could it be...? !

In the blink of an eye, he seemed to understand something, with a slight surprise on his face, and he said to himself: "Impossible, they absolutely cannot escape from there. In the past, there were many masters who were more powerful than them, but they were trapped in our prison of time and were helpless. Even if we find a flaw, according to our observation, none of them have that level of domineering power..."

At this moment, a sudden sound of Den Den Mushi came from Herjog, interrupting his thoughts.

"Is that Master Herjog?! Something terrible has happened! Those people broke the clock and escaped from it!"

"What?! Explain it to me more clearly!"

"Yes! Almost all the troops at the port were wiped out. The enemy is now heading towards the palace. There are many talking monsters helping them! Requesting support... Eh! What are you doing! Don't come over here!!!"

The sound from the Den Den Mushi suddenly stopped, leaving only a "sizzling" sound. In a rage, Herjog threw the Den Den Mushi to the ground, and the shell was smashed to pieces. Tempaz heard it clearly and was also incredulous. He said in a daze: "Those guys are good at it. This is a bit troublesome."

"You don't have to worry so much, do you?"

King Pecunia said with a forced smile, "Why don't you just use your power to lock them up again?"

"terribly sorry."

Tanpaz stared at him and said expressionlessly, "After our Prison of Time is used once, it cannot be used within seven days!"

"Then what do we do?"

King Pecunia's smile gradually disappeared, and he held his head in panic and shouted, "At their speed, I'm afraid they will arrive here in a few hours!"

"give it to me!"

Herjog took off the meteor hammer from his waist and walked forward quickly, "I will kill them all to vent my endless anger!"

"It's not a good idea to show off your courage for a moment, Mr. Herjog. Let me accompany you for a while."

Tempaz pulled out the two needles on his back, and the corners of his mouth curled up. "Since reality is already determined, we can only accept it and take corresponding countermeasures. I also want to make a break with those guys."

"It would be great if Mr. Tempaz could help us!"

Herjog turned around and the anger on his face immediately subsided, replaced by a heroic smile. For some reason, he always treated Tampaz with respect.

"Remember to add double the compensation."

After saying this, Tempaz placed a long needle on Herjog's shoulder, and with a "swish" the two of them disappeared without a trace, leaving King Pecunia standing there at a loss.
