Having witnessed Daichi's power, Loki unhesitatingly admitted defeat. "My apologies, I was just joking!"
Daichi spoke indifferently.
"Kikara."
"Here."
Kikara trotted over, busying herself with an incomprehensible series of actions, and a delicate tea table appeared in the snowy landscape, along with black tea and pastries.
Daichi sat down and, in the midst of the ice and snow, leisurely savored his black tea, as if on vacation.
Loki stared, dumbfounded.
This human bastard is quite particular.
One minute... ten minutes...
Loki couldn't help but shout.
"Hey, how long are you going to drink tea?!"
"Do you want tea too?"
Daichi glanced at Loki.
"I don't want tea at all. If I were to drink something, it would be alcohol!"
Loki's mind stirred, and an idea came to him.
"You're a pirate, right? You must have an enemy you want to kill, right? As long as you can unlock my chains, I'll help you kill him, how about it?"
"That's not bad."
Daichi put down his teacup, a smile playing on his lips.
"I do have someone I want to take care of."
"Who is it?"
Loki's heart brightened, and he quickly pressed.
Once the chains were off, he would first kill the human bastard in front of him.
Daichi stood up and faced Loki.
"Red-Haired Shanks!"
"Ah?!"
Loki was stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage. He had been captured by Shanks, so telling him to kill Shanks was throwing himself into a trap!
"Are you here to mock me?!"
"I don't have that kind of free time."
Daichi's gaze was cold. "Loki, I've heard about you. Shanks is your enemy. It's only natural to seek revenge on him, isn't it?"
"Of course!"
Loki gnashed his teeth.
The person he hated most right now was that Yonko Red Hair. If he could escape, the first thing he would do was seek revenge on Shanks!
"That's settled then."
Daichi extended his hand, and the rocks at his feet rapidly rose, forming an enormous stone axe in his hand.
His massive sword had been broken by Shanks, and his new weapon was still being forged, so for now, he could only use rock as a substitute.
"Clang!"
The giant axe was imbued with Haki.
Loki felt a bad premonition.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
"Unlocking your chains."
Daichi raised the giant axe with both hands, aiming it at Loki's ankle. "Seastone is difficult to destroy. The simplest way to unlock your chains is to chop off your limbs. Don't worry, it'll be over quickly."
"Bastard, stop it!"
Loki was truly scared this time, a difficult-to-describe fear rising in his heart. The man in front of him was even more brutal than he was.
If his limbs were chopped off, how would he get revenge in the future!
"There's a key, there's a key!"
"Key?"
Daichi stopped, his brow furrowed.
"Where?"
"It's in the Sun World above!"
Loki, sweating profusely, explained. "The Sun World is the true Elbaf, but now it's occupied by cowardly Giants, and the key is hidden by them!"
"Giants live up there?"
Daichi looked up at the sky.
The Adam Tree's incredibly dense branches obscured the sky, and a large amount of mist swirled around, making it impossible to see anything clearly.
His perception was also blocked.
His memories from his previous life stopped at Egghead, so he wasn't clear about the situation in Elbaf, nor did he know that the Giants would actually live in a tree.
No wonder he hadn't seen many Giants.
Treasure Tree Adam, Sun World, Underworld...
Isn't this Norse mythology?
Looking at the Sun World, which was of unknown height, Daichi's brows furrowed even tighter.
Damn it, how do I get up there!
He can't fly!
Does he have to climb up the tree trunk?
Daichi withdrew his gaze and looked at Loki.
"How do I get up?"
"Did you see the rainbow when you came?"
Loki felt confident again, a grin spreading across his lips. "You can reach the Sun World by taking a boat across the Rainbow Bridge!"
"Good."
Daichi nodded, then turned and left.
"Let's go."
"Yes."
He's leaving just like that?
Loki watched Daichi leave, a little stunned for a moment.
What exactly did this guy come here for?
Was it to save him?
Or was it to use his power against Shanks!
Loki licked his lips.
If that's the case, then it seems they can become "friends"!
Half a day later, at the tavern.
A huge snow leopard stopped outside the tavern.
"Mountain Master?!"
Looking at the snow leopard, Gerd's eyes bulged in fright, her once pretty face now difficult to look at directly.
Such a massive size must belong to the Mountain Master of the Underworld. Why would such a monster appear on the coast!
"Grrrrr!"
The snow leopard bared its fangs, letting out a roar of intimidation.
"!"
With a muffled thud, the snow leopard whimpered and lay down on the ground, its two front paws clutching its head.
It hurt!
"Idiot, don't scare them!"
Daichi appeared on top of the snow leopard's head, waving at Gerd below.
"Gerd, we're back!"
"Daichi?!"
Gerd exclaimed softly, widening her eyes to look at Daichi, then at the snow leopard, and immediately understood what had happened.
"You went to the Underworld?!"
"Just took a stroll."
Daichi brought his companions down.
Gerd looked left and right, then cautiously asked. "Where are the brother and sister who were with you? They weren't eaten, were they?"
"They don't die that easily."
Daichi chuckled and shook his head, looking back at the Underworld.
They'll probably... survive!
With Ulti and her brother's current strength, as long as they don't provoke the Mountain Master, survival isn't an issue. The siblings are arrogant and lack setbacks, so they really need life-and-death tempering.
In less than two years, the Worst Generation will set sail.
Even Urouge, with the lowest bounty, could defeat Snack, the weakest of the Sweet Commanders. If they aren't ruthless enough, the siblings might truly be eliminated by the era.
Daichi looked at the Giant woman.
"Gerd, I want to go to the Sun World."
"To the Sun World?"
Gerd looked a bit troubled.
Hajrudin had specifically warned her to keep a close eye on Daichi and his group, especially not to let Daichi enter the Sun World.
"What do you want to do in the Sun World?"
"Haha, of course, I want to witness the warriors of Elbaf!"
Daichi's eyes were full of expectation.
He wasn't lying. The warriors of Elbaf are renowned throughout the world, and their reverence for battle inspires warriors from all corners of the globe.
In Little Garden on the Grand Line, the two captains of the Giant Warrior Pirates, Dorry and Brogy, fought for 100 years for honor. What an awe-inspiring duel.
He also wanted to witness it firsthand.
There must be an enormous life-and-death arena!
Rivers of blood!
He wants to see rivers of blood!
Daichi looked at Gerd, a hearty smile on his face. "Can you take me? Gerd, we're friends, aren't we?"
"Friends!"
Gerd's eyes sparkled.
She loved making friends with humans the most!
"Okay! I'll take you!"
Soon, Gerd brought over a fog ship.
When the fog ship ascended the Rainbow Bridge, everyone on board couldn't help but excitedly raise their arms and shout, even ordinary warriors like Gazelleman.
The Beast Pirates admire strength the most!
"Elbaf!"
"Elbaf!!"
"Elbaf!!!"
