Chapter 178 The Mythical Era of the Pirate World; Elensig vs. Loki
Beltz traveled all the way to Elbaf.
This wasn't his first time in Elbaf.
After all, it was he who had brought Harald back all these years.
Although he wouldn't stay in Elbaf for long, he had become somewhat familiar with the place over time.
When he arrived at Elbaf, he saw that the giants on the entire huge island were preparing for battle.
It seems that Harald must have already told them about the World Government's planned attack on Elbaf after he arrived.
Elbaf is the strongest country in the world. If they were to prepare for war with all their might, their war potential would be astonishing!
According to Im's idea, as long as Harald can submit to the World Government, then Elbaf alone would be equivalent to the entire Marine Headquarters!
This was all before Im knew Loki.
Elensger went straight for Harald's aura and saw Harald discussing something with the high-ranking officials of the Giant Kingdom.
Besides Harald, there is also the giant hero Aluru and his son Loki. The three of them are basically the most powerful fighters in Elbaf right now.
"Erensger!"
Upon seeing Elensger arrive, Harald quickly stood up and said, "You're here very early."
"We have to hurry. The World Government is coming on strong, and we need to be fully prepared."
Ellensger said, "I know where Donley and Brogy are. I've already sent my companions to fetch them. They'll definitely come over once they hear something's going to happen in Elbaf."
"Dongli and Brogy—" Harald said with some emotion, "It's been so long since I've seen them."
Dorry and Brogy were Harald's childhood companions, but they separated after they set sail. Dorry and Brogy led the Giant Warrior Pirates and wreaked havoc on the seas, but later mysteriously disappeared.
Hearing their names from Elensger's mouth, Harald couldn't help but sigh, "Time waits for no one. Even for giants, decades is an extremely long time."
It was truly heartening to see old friends I hadn't seen for seventy or eighty years and to hear that they were alright.
"If the two of them come, it will definitely be a great help." Aluru learned about Elensig's existence from Harald and knew that he was there to help, so she was very polite.
He added, "Since the World Government dares to come, then they should know what the consequences will be if they anger us."
"Hmph! I've wanted to kill them all for a long time!" Loki sneered. "But you all insisted on stopping me."
'
"Calm down, Loki," Harald said to his son. "The World Government is unfathomable; rashly starting a war with them will only cost us our lives!"
"And then you just wait for others to come to your house, right?" Loki said indignantly. "No matter what the outcome, Elbaf, which you care about, will definitely be devastated."
Harald was speechless.
"Let's put aside these useless words. Since it's already happened, there's no point in crashing again," Ellensger said coldly. "What we need to do now is face the future, not dwell on the past."
"The enemy is coming in a fierce manner. In addition to a large number of marines, there should also be the Knights of God and the Five Elders. Fortunately, Garp and Sengoku should not come."
When Ellence arrived, he had already heard rumors that Garp was firmly opposed to attacking Elbaf, and the World Government couldn't do anything about it, so they didn't force Garp to fight.
Garp won't come, and neither will Sengoku, because Sengoku is now the Fleet Admiral, and a Fleet Admiral can't be easily dispatched.
This means the navy has lost two major combat forces.
But the world government's military strength is also terrifying now.
"The Five Elders have received an extremely terrifying enhancement, and their strength is now vastly different from what it used to be. In addition to the five of them, according to my intelligence, the World Government has also created a very terrifying giant."
"Giants?" Harald frowned. "What giants?"
"Its name is Chimera, and its strength is terrifying."
"The World Government is coming on strong, so I need to know your intelligence," Ellensger added, "so that I can plan our strategy."
"Why should I listen to a human like you!" Loki said impatiently. "I already said, if the World Government comes, I'll take them all down by myself!"
"Loki!" Harald said with a headache, "I told you not to be careless."
"It's nothing," Elensig said, looking at Loki. "Perfect timing. I've always been interested in this Devil Fruit passed down in Elbaf. How about a fight?"
Loki has already eaten the legendary Devil Fruit passed down in Elbaf, but Elensig doesn't know what kind of Devil Fruit it is.
So let's fight Loki and see just how powerful he really is.
Loki's strength is definitely very strong. According to Harald, he inherited the blood of the overlord from the legend of Elbaf and was born with divine strength. In every respect, he can be said to be a high-end version of Harald!
The only downside is that he's still very young; Loki hasn't reached his peak yet.
If Loki reaches his peak, then surpassing Harald is a foregone conclusion.
Harald was already terrifying enough; he was on par with Rocks in terms of strength, and Rocks was in the same league as Roger and Whitebeard.
If he is allowed to grow to his peak, and another ten years or so pass, then he could very well gain strength that surpasses those of these people.
But right now, Ellenska believes Loki isn't that strong yet.
He has now devoured the Demon King of Song, and if he digests it step by step, it may take several months.
However, digesting it during combat would undoubtedly reduce this time.
But the premise is that the two sides are evenly matched, or even challenge someone stronger than oneself.
"careful."
Seeing that Elensig was about to fight Loki, Harald quickly said, "Loki has eaten the Fruit of Nidhogg, you are probably no match for him."
Harald knows Elensger very well; after all, Elensger was practically raised by him!
In Hueco Mundo, it was Harald who helped Erenstein hunt down Menos Grande and fed him to help him grow!
Therefore, he was well aware of Ellenska's strength; he was no match for Loki.
However, he was unaware that after arriving in the pirate world, Elensgar had devoured the Demon King of Song.
"The Nidhogg Fruit?"
It was at this moment that Ellensge first learned about the Devil Fruit passed down from Elbaf.
He couldn't help but ask curiously, "What kind of power does this legendary Devil Fruit possess?"
"Hmph, you'll find out then," Loki said. "It's a symbol of the God of War." Harald then said solemnly, "You may not know, but long ago, there was a god in Elbaf who wielded the weapon 'Ragnir,' transforming into a dragon to fight the sun god."
"This Nidhogg Fruit inherits his power; whoever eats it can transform into the greatest dragon."
"Moreover, the larger the human who eats it, the larger the dragon he transforms into. Loki is not only a giant, but also has the blood of the ancient giants, so the Nidhogg Fruit that he ate can exert its greatest power."
"God of War — God of the Sun —"
Ellensge frowned slightly upon hearing these two titles.
He's been in the world of One Piece for quite a while now, so he knows a fair bit about it.
But that only applies to the current era.
He didn't know much about the past, that war eight hundred years ago, and he wasn't even particularly interested in learning about it.
Not to mention things that happened more than three thousand years ago.
Yes, the world of One Piece is not just the present and the great war eight hundred years ago; there is also the "First World" more than three thousand years ago.
This First World is extraordinary; it can be considered the mythical era of the One Piece world.
In that mythological era, there were powerful beings such as the Sun God, the Earth God, the Serpent of Karmic Fire, and the God of War.
There exists a colossal robot in Elbaf, a robot that originated from the mythical era more than three thousand years ago.
But that's all that's left of the legacy.
Eight hundred years ago, many things, even creatures, were passed down in the Second World. In the First World, only a few scattered legends, the remains of robots, and those god-level Devil Fruits remained.
For example, Loki ate the Nidhogg Fruit, and Luffy will eat the Nika Fruit in the future.
He even suspected that all the mythical beast species in this world had actually existed in that era.
After the end of the mythological era, people's fantasies about the gods and mythical beasts gave birth to Devil Fruits.
If that's the case, then the world of One Piece isn't so simple after all.
But no matter what, so many years have passed, and at least the current era cannot reach the strength of the mythical era.
Generally speaking, according to the pattern of anime, the generation to which the protagonist belongs is the strongest generation, so it is possible that Luffy will possess strength comparable to or even surpassing that of the sun god from the mythological era when the story ends.
Then let him try out the power passed down by that war god.
He looked at Loki, and Loki couldn't help but grin.
"Let's go, to the underworld."
If Elensog were to fight Loki, it certainly couldn't take place in the mortal realm; who knows how much destruction that would cause.
There wouldn't be any problem in the underworld.
"well----"
Seeing that he couldn't stop the two from fighting, Harald couldn't help but sigh.
He went to the underworld with Aruru, determined to intervene if Elensig was in danger.
After arriving in the Underworld, Elensger did not let his guard down at all and immediately entered his Resurrección and Beast Mode!
In an instant, the scales of the red dragon appeared on his body, huge horns and a tail grew out, followed by a pair of huge dragon wings!
"Are you a dragon too?"
Loki was intrigued by Elensig's transformation. Even though Elensig was much larger in this state, he was still only slightly taller than Loki's feet when standing in front of him.
Loki is more than ten times taller than Ellenska!
But the power that Elensger unleashed at this moment was astonishing!
puff!
He was already absorbing the energy of the Demon King of Song, and now he released his aura without reservation, instantly forming a black and red lightning bolt that seemed to be tangible!
"!"
Harald was surprised to see Erensger's domineering aura and exclaimed, "Such a powerful aura! When did he become so domineering?"
"That's amazing?"
He's only been back for a few days, yet Ellensberg has been completely transformed in just a few days?
"Impressive, but not enough!"
Loki was surprised to see the powerful aura emanating from Elensger, but he didn't take this little guy seriously.
He gripped the iron mine with both hands and shouted, "Don't you dare die!"
boom!
He swung the hammer with both hands, and instantly a powerful aura enveloped the hammer, releasing a blazing bolt of lightning!
Although he spoke arrogantly, he wasn't truly unreasonable.
He knew that Elensger had come to Elbaf to help, so he didn't use his full strength in this attack.
In his opinion, even if he didn't use his full strength, this attack should be enough.
but----
boom!
The massive, thick bolt of lightning struck Erensger, but in an instant, a powerful force erupted from Erensger's body, and he swung his sword!
boom!
Wang Xu's brilliance!
Powerful energy gathered from the two horns on his head, and with each swing of his blade, this powerful flash of divine light merged with his attack, and then—
It actually tore apart that powerful lightning!
The lightning bolts Loki unleashed were sliced apart by this powerful energy, and even after the entire bolt was cut in half, it didn't stop!
The strike left the blade, transforming into a crescent-shaped blade of energy that hurtled towards Loki from a distance!
Loki finally got serious and swung his hammer again, shattering the black and red crescent moon!
boom!
He gripped the hammer with both hands and launched another attack on Elensger!
"Word of Power: The Bronze Throne!"
He can certainly use the Word of Power series that Beltz developed back then!
After all, they are not only the same person, but also have the same attributes, having both eaten the Azure Dragon Fruit.
Although he doesn't have the Quincy's Bloodstained Armor, he has the Steel Skin of a Hollow, which, combined with his powerful Armament Haki, makes him even stronger than Beltz in terms of surface defense!
boom!
Faced with such formidable defense, he was completely unafraid of Loki and began to confront him head-on!
A knife and a giant hammer collided in mid-air!
Boom!
puff!
It was just like the duel between Rocks and Harald in the Underworld was being reenacted!
Loki was a witness to that battle, and under the powerful clash of energies, he was almost blasted away!
At this moment, he has become one of the instigators of this conflict!
Powerful black lightning surged forth, instantly striking all directions in Elbaf!
This powerful strike actually covered the entire Elbaf with domineering aura!
