The man sitting in the conference room, wearing a black robe and a hood, was none other than the red-haired Shanks, one of the three emperors today.
Just like the original work, there are three claw marks on Shanks' left eye, and a few strands of blood-red hair are exposed from his hood. In addition, the empty sleeve of his left arm is shaking gently as he picks up the teacup.
Um..
As long as there is nothing wrong with your eyes, you can recognize it.
I don't know whether this guy dressed like this to hide his identity or not..
Vivian muttered to herself.
At the same time, when Vivian was looking at the red-haired man through the wall, the red-haired man also put down his teacup and cast his gaze towards Vivian. The two of them looked at each other for a long time through the back wall, as if the wall between them did not exist at all. Only then, at the reminder of the two guards, Vivian reached out and pushed open the door, and then walked into the meeting room.
winter!
After closing the door, Vivian pulled out a chair and sat opposite him without waiting for the red-haired man to speak.
"Do you want me to tell you something important? Do you want me to use a soundproofing cover to block out the noise?"
The familiar tone of voice made it seem as if the two were old friends who had known each other for a long time.
But in fact, today was the first time the two met.
"The Thunder Swordsman...is a little different from what I imagined."
Shanks couldn't help laughing, but as soon as he finished speaking, an invisible pressure suddenly swept over from the air.
Vivian couldn't help but frowned when she sensed this situation.
"Hegemony color?"
And it's such a strong overlord color..
It has to be said that Shanks's skills in controlling the Conqueror's Haki have indeed reached the level of perfection. Even after witnessing the battle between Big Mom and Kaido, Vivian thought that those two guys' use of the Conqueror's Haki was not as good as Red Hair's.
Of course, I'm not talking about the strength of the Conqueror's Haki, but how to use it.
It was the first time he saw someone who could control the Conqueror's Haki as if he was controlling a machine, changing its shape according to his own thoughts and wrapping the target tightly.
Just like now.
Vivian could clearly feel that the domineering color released by the red-haired guy wrapped him like a coat. Apart from that, the two guards at the door and the Den Den Mushi placed on the conference table were not affected at all. It can be seen how abnormal this guy's control of the domineering color is.
But despite this..
Vivian, who was tightly wrapped by Shanks' domineering color, was still sitting on the chair as if nothing had happened, with a smile on her face. She even stretched out a hand, broke through the cover of the domineering color, picked up the teapot on the table, and poured herself a cup of black tea.
Seeing this, Shanks couldn't help but smile again, and then he withdrew the domineering color he had released.
He has such a bad taste, and he has always been like this when meeting people from the Whitebeard Pirates.
Similarly, the reason for doing this this time was just to test Vivian's strength.
"It seems that the youngest general in history is not groundless..."
"You asked me to come here just to see if I am strong enough to be a general?"
Vivian drank the tea in the cup and continued, "I just heard the two guards at the door say that they would bring me here to meet the Celestial Dragons, and when I opened the door, I saw you. So... you are a Celestial Dragon?"
He remembered this scene in the One Piece anime.
Shanks, dressed in the same outfit as now, came to the holy land of Marijoa to meet the Five Elders. Vivian had guessed this when he was watching the anime. Now, combined with the words of the two guards just now, he really began to doubt Shanks' true identity.
As expected, Shanks, who heard this question, took off his hood, looked at Vivian with a serious expression and said, "I am actually... a Celestial Dragon as well..."
Vivian: ∑(O_O;)
WTF..
I seem to have heard some great news
Red-haired Shanks is actually a Celestial Dragon? !
Vivian showed a very shocked expression at that moment.
After saying this, the red-haired man also lost himself in his memories, muttering to himself, "That was thirty-eight years ago... In addition to Marijoa, there is another place where the celestial dragons live. It's called the Valley of the Gods..."
"The Valley of God?"
Vivian raised her eyebrows again when she heard this word.
The original work mentioned the Battle of Kamiya thirty-eight years ago more than once. At that time, there was a pirate named Rocks. Long before Roger became famous, his name had already resounded across the sea, and everyone believed that he had the greatest hope of becoming the Pirate King.
By the way, three of the previous Four Emperors, Whitebeard Edward Newgate, Big Mom Charlotte Linlin, and Kaido, the King of Beasts, were all crew members under Rocks.
In addition, there are Shiki the Golden Lion, as well as Silver Axe, John, Wang Zhi and other pirates who will shine on the sea in the future, and they are all crew members of the Rocks Pirates.
So the question is, why would such a pirate group that appears to be so powerful on paper be defeated
Is it just because Garp and Roger are so powerful when they join forces that no one can defeat them
Not really..
Of course, there is also support from the world government for this battle.
At that time, all the Celestial Dragons living in God Valley and the slaves they kept were captured by the Rocks Pirates and used as hostages to threaten the World Government. In a rage, Yinm sent all his forces over, intending to encircle and annihilate the Rocks Pirates in God Valley.
Having said that, do you think Yin Mu was so angry because he cared about his compatriots
Of course not.
In Yinm's eyes, his compatriots are far less important than the secrets in the Valley of Gods.
It was precisely because of this that, in order to protect the "secret", Yinm, who did not care about the lives of the celestial dragons in the Valley of the Gods at all, mobilized the "King of Heaven" to completely destroy the entire island.
In that battle, Rocks died at the hands of the combined forces of Uranus, Garp and Roger.
Whitebeard, Big Mom, Golden Lion, Kaido and others also fled separately and luckily managed to save their lives.
"So, the story of the Rocks Pirates being wiped out in the Valley of the Gods, what does that have to do with you being a Celestial Dragon?" Vivian asked, pouring another cup of black tea.
"Because... I am a Celestial Dragon baby who was born in the Valley of Gods not long before that battle."
