"That Celestial Dragon...isn't he dead yet?"
"He was clearly in the center of the explosion, and after suffering such a severe blow, he was still alive?"
Everyone felt a little unbelievable.
But then I thought, Vivian and Luffy are not dead either.
They nodded with some understanding, but at the same time, another question arose in their minds, which was... haven't these three guys used their full strength yet
Otherwise, why were they not hurt at all even though they were at the center of the explosion
"Is Admiral Vivian seriously injured?" a navy man continued to ask at this time.
"It looks pretty serious... But Luffy is different. He activated his fruit awakening form and quickly recovered from the damage. I think with him by her side, Vivian shouldn't be in any trouble, right? After all, the injuries suffered by the Celestial Dragon named Yinmu were much worse than those of the two of them."
Franky explained and recounted what he had seen at the bottom of the sea two hours ago.
It turned out that just a moment after finding the unconscious Dragon and Whitebeard, Sabo had already found Vivian's whereabouts.
Unlike Whitebeard and Dragon, who are also users of special abilities, the seriously injured Vivian threw a universal capsule onto the sea just before falling into the sea.
Until the moment Sabo found him, he was still meditating in the submarine, trying to recover from the negative effects of nuclear radiation on his body.
"So, in that case, both of them...are fine now?" Nami asked.
"Um."
Franky nodded. "Vivian also said that we should go to the nearest island and wait. Whether we catch the Celestial Dragon or not, they will arrive within three days."
"I see."
Even though Yin Mu has been driven away, who can guarantee that he won't come back again one day
"What about Sabo? Why didn't Sabo come out with you?" Seeing that no one had come out of the Shark submarine yet, Betty stepped forward and asked.
"Sabo? He stayed on Vivian's ship with the Empress. But don't worry, just like Whitebeard and Dragon, their injuries were treated by Vivian. Even though he was injured so badly, he still managed to help others heal... Vivian is really as the rumors say, the most worthy of the word 'tough guy' I have seen in all these years..."
...
The scene switches back to the vicinity of the Red Earth Continent.
Sure enough, just as Franky said, Vivian was indeed operating the submarine built by Vegapunk at this moment, searching for Yin's figure in the bottomless dark sea.
Well, it’s more like looking for the remaining head of Yinm rather than looking for Yinm.
Yes, in the explosion just now, Yinm's body was finally broken into pieces by the collision with Vivian's thunder ring.
Vivian didn't know whether this guy was blown into pieces like that or he did it on purpose so that he would only have his head left to escape. But since he already knew that Yinm used his brain to gain eternal life, Vivian naturally couldn't let this guy get away.
"I have a question."
Lying against the wall, he became extremely weak due to long-term radiation exposure. His chest kept rising and falling. He looked like an old man who was terminally ill and seemed like he would die on the spot at any time.
"You say." Vivian glanced at him and said.
"Even if Yinmu's Nuclear Explosion Fruit ability is only a head left, will it still exist?"
"That should be the case in theory."
Vivian said: "This Yinmu has existed for about 800 years from ancient times to the present. It is impossible for it to have to find the Nuclear Explosion Fruit again every time it changes its body, right? Therefore, I think even for us, as long as the brain is not completely dead, the fruit ability will not disappear without a trace."
"So, the ability exists in the brain..."
Sabo heard this and said thoughtfully.
However, Hancock suddenly came up to Vivian while she was operating the submarine, hugged her from behind, and then her whole body began to tremble slightly uncontrollably.
"Why are you crying all of a sudden?"
Vivian asked, tilting her head.
"I...I thought...you would never come back."
Tears soon wet Vivian's shoulders, and Hancock's crying gradually became louder. Vivian had no choice but to free up one hand and hug Hancock in her arms.
"Idiot, how could I not come back? I am Vivian, the Thunder Sword Master. Who in this world can kill me?"
As he said that, he kissed Hancock on the face twice more, which made Sabo, who was watching the scene from behind, couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Damn, don’t they know that there are two other living people in the cabin
"Luffy, these two guys seem to treat us as if we don't exist."
He turned his head to look at Luffy, and then found that Luffy had fallen asleep so deeply that even snot bubbles came out of his nose. Sabo had no choice but to close his eyes speechlessly, pretending that he didn't see it and was not bothered by it.
But before long, as the "muamua" sound became more and more unbridled, Sabo, whose mind was constantly thinking of a female comrade from the same army, finally couldn't help but speak up and said, "Hey, hey, do you still want to find Yinmu's whereabouts?"
"Um?"
Vivian moved her mouth away from Hancock's face, coughed, and said seriously, "Of course...but that guy's brain moves too fast. I think we're really going to return empty-handed today."
"But... you and Luffy have already defeated him, right? And in front of people all over the world. At least the World Government has fallen, the rule of the Celestial Dragons has been completely overthrown, and you have become a world-famous hero... Everything is developing according to our plan."
"That being said, if that guy escapes, there will always be a hidden danger in the future. What if he wants to come back again one day..."
"We'll talk about it when that day comes."
Sabo smiled very weakly: "At least now is the era that belongs to us ordinary people. And I also believe that as long as there are guys like you and Luffy, even if there are ten or even a hundred Yins, it will be of no use."
"You seem to have a lot of confidence in me."
"No, I have confidence in your character."
As soon as he finished speaking, Sabo spat out another mouthful of blood, then closed his eyes and fainted on the ground.
Vivian: “…”
