Qiu Shui instantly turned into a black dragon that was only as thick as an adult's arm, summoned a flame cloud to support the dragon's body, and flew upward.
The firelight from the flame cloud cast her shadow on the ground below.
Maud looked at the shadow of Qiu Shui and popped out a shadow bead with her fingers.
call out-
The shadow pillar disappeared into the shadow of Qiu Shui in an instant.
“Everything is imitated and multiplied.”
Maud had an idea and used the shadow's ability to expand.
Silently, the volume of autumn water increased at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Only three or four seconds.
Qiu Shui turned into a giant dragon, and the size of the flame cloud supporting his body also doubled, and the firelight emitted reflected downwards.
An underground city that had been covered in dust for many years and exuded a primitive atmosphere revealed its outline under the firelight.
Maud and Long looked at the silent ancient city, with a look of surprise in their eyes.
"I didn't expect there was a city hidden under the Holy Land."
Long glanced at the ancient city illuminated by the firelight, feeling surprised in his heart.
Maud made no comment.
He was not interested in the history of this world. At most, he felt that this ancient city, sealed in dust underground, had a sense of heaviness that had been accumulated over time.
It is quite meaningful and also quite ornamental.
As for the origin and past of this ancient city, he had no interest.
On the other hand, Long felt an urge to find out more.
"I'll go over there and have a look."
The dragon's body became elemental and turned into a breeze, floating towards the ancient city.
Maud also walked towards the ancient city, but not as eagerly as Long.
He came to this underground city with Long, originally to discuss plans after the war.
I didn’t expect that the dragon would be so attracted to this ancient city hidden under the holy land that he would forget his purpose.
Maude looked at the ancient buildings in front of her.
The thick dust cannot conceal the ancient atmosphere of the building itself.
"If it's her, she should be very interested."
Maude thought of Robin, smiled and shook her head, and simply wandered around the ancient city.
After Long's interest subsides, he will naturally come to him to "plan" the future of the world.
"Maud, come here."
About half an hour later, the dragon's voice came from afar.
Maud stopped and looked in the direction of the sound.
He didn't respond, but used his ability to change shape and appeared next to the dragon in an instant.
Rao Shilong was a good-hearted person, but he was also startled by Mod who suddenly teleported over.
"When was the film mark set..."
Long was secretly shocked, but had no intention of delving into it further.
"This should be a mural recording ancient history."
He pointed to the mural he had just discovered.
It depicts characters one after another, as well as various utensils and symbols.
Maud looked up at the mural.
He seems to have some impression of the patterns in the mural, and he must have seen them in the original work.
If I remember correctly, this seems to be a mural left by the people on the moon.
But Maud was too lazy to dig deeper, and had no intention of telling the dragon this information.
Long noticed Maud's lack of interest in history, and the strong feeling of eagerness to share it suddenly became much weaker.
"Let's talk business."
While looking at the mural, he sat cross-legged on the ground covered with a thick layer of dust.
"good."
Maude also sat cross-legged on the ground.
Long crossed his arms, stared at the man in front of him, and went straight to the point.
"Maud, what kind of world do you want to see?"
“You should ask, what kind of world do I want to create.”
Maud's eyes were calm, and the corners of her mouth were slightly curved, showing a hint of a smile.
Long Wenyan was silent for a moment and asked again: "So, what kind of world do you want to create?"
"Equality, freedom."
Maud tilted her head slightly, smiling.
That kind of expression and behavior gave people a sense of déjà vu, as if he was joking.
But the dragon knew Maud wasn't kidding.
Create a world of equality and freedom
Too general and too idealistic.
Long did not find fault, but continued to ask: "How to create?"
"Prestige, and..."
Mod raised his index finger, and a small light ball containing the power of shock appeared on the fingertip.
"strength."
“…”
Long couldn't help but fell silent again.
He saw that Maud had not planned the blueprint in advance.
It also illustrates that Mod's purpose before this was not to rule the world...
Perhaps what he said next might anger Maud.
But dragons have to say too.
Because he believed that Mord did not have enough power to create a new world.
In fact, even he himself does not have the confidence to create a new world.
What he wants to do is to change the world bit by bit after overthrowing the world government.
"The throne that can decide everything can only accommodate one person."
After a moment of silence, Long suddenly spoke.
This is a very sensitive topic at this moment.
Maude suppressed her smile and looked at the dragon calmly, waiting for the next step.
Long Ye also had a calm look on his face. He faced Maud's gaze and said in a calm and powerful tone: "Perhaps, I am more suitable for this position than you, because I know how to change the world and make it a better place." It has to be better.”
"I'm not denying it, but I have a few questions for you."
Maude could clearly sense the dragon's will with his knowledge, but he never thought of giving up the decision-making power.
The seeds that the revolutionary army has buried all over the world over the years can indeed begin to take root in this situation.
However.
Not nearly enough.
The revolutionary army lacks two things.
"Dragon, can you bring the 'Age of Pirates' to an end within a year? Can you make the illegal trade of rats in the underground world a thing of the past within a year? Or can you bring the world to a standstill with tens of millions of people?" Are the islands connected together?"
“…”
Facing several questions raised by Maud, Long's expression changed slightly and he was speechless.
Because he can't.
At this time, the sound of footsteps came from the darkness where the firelight could not shine.
Hearing the footsteps, Maud and Long did not react, still looking at each other.
The sound of footsteps came from far to near.
One after another figures revealed their appearance under the firelight.
Aokiji, Fujitora, Bear, and Sabo all came with bandages all over his body.
Besides them, there is another person with special status.
But it was the red-haired Shanks of the Four Emperors who had never been involved in the whirlpool.
They all looked at Maud and Long who were sitting cross-legged in front of the mural.
And they obviously heard the conversation just now.
After all, in this quiet underground city, no matter how small the sound is, it can travel far.
Shanks would appear at this moment, which surprised Mod.
However, he did not say hello to Shanks, but looked directly at the dragon in front of him and said word by word: "You can't do it, but I can."
The confident voice echoed throughout the entire underground ancient city.
The bright autumn water hovering in the sky seemed to respond to the master's words, and let out a high-pitched dragon roar, causing sand and dust to fall from above.
Long, as well as the people who had just arrived nearby, looked at Maud with different expressions.
Within a year, the era of pirates will come to an end, the illegal trade in the underground dark world will disappear, and all the islands in the world will be connected...
Even if these things sound incredible.
But no one would question what Maud said.
Because the strongest man in the world always does what he says.
Maud slowly stood up and looked down at the dragon.
At this moment, Long finally felt the terrifying oppression from Mod.
It's like being pressed by a high mountain and sinking to the bottom of the sea ten thousand meters below.
A sense of restraint and suffocation.
It makes you feel uncomfortable.
Despite this, Long still met Maud's eyes without giving in.
Mod said calmly: "This position can indeed only accommodate one person, but that person can only be me. There is no room for negotiation, but... I can give you a chance to challenge me. If you defeat me, you can decide everything."
“…”
Long's pupils shrank sharply.
beside.
Xiong and Sabo stopped talking.
Aokiji and Fujitora looked calm.
Shanks rubbed his chin, his eyes shining with an inexplicable luster.
Defeat Maud
