'132... 133... Is that all?'
Inside the shelter, Yang Tao mingled with the crowd, secretly observing the surrounding Celestial Dragons. Even when some Celestial Dragons tried to strike up a conversation, he managed to bluff his way through.
But honestly, pretending to be an idiot was truly exhausting.
'It looks like there's more than one shelter...'
The number of Celestial Dragons wasn't large, but it couldn't be this small. Yang Tao estimated that there should be at least a thousand Celestial Dragons currently alive.
Any more than that, given the productivity shown in the One Piece world, it would be impossible to support more Celestial Dragons.
Uncontrolled childbearing would only lead to more Celestial Dragons.
When he was rampaging through Mary Geoise earlier, he should have crushed two or three hundred Celestial Dragons. Adding the more than one hundred people here, it meant that at least half of the Celestial Dragons were hidden elsewhere.
He looked up at the ceiling of the shelter.
[HP 24,000 / 24,000]
This shelter was alive; he just didn't know what the Devil Fruit's name was.
He quickly calculated the position.
Dozens of Doomshroms flew from his hand, a sudden change that left all the Celestial Dragons no time to react.
Boom... Boom...
These wastes, with only about fifty HP, didn't even have a chance to scream under the explosion of the Doomshroms.
The next moment, an arm made of bricks and stones fell from the ceiling, smashing directly towards him.
Yang Tao immediately canceled his transformation; after all, the Celestial Dragons' HP wasn't even enough for the enemy to touch them once.
Yamato released countless sword slash, and the rating instantly changed from D to S. A kind of 'numerical' charm emanated from the blade.
24,000 HP couldn't withstand Yang Tao's attack at all.
'Dimensional Slash... Phantom Sword...'
'Death: Lion's Song!'
Yang Tao's figure instantly disappeared within the shelter. The data-driven Lion's Song was unstoppable; it would pass through the target no matter when it was activated.
As soon as he came outside, Yang Tao felt a bit of regret. Countless enemies appeared around him, and upon seeing his figure, they all roared and charged towards him.
[World Exploration Value 41.95%]
Among this group were many plot characters, but they no longer had the high-spirited appearance from the plot; each of them looked like a Lunatic, wishing they could devour Yang Tao's flesh.
[World Exploration Value 43.55%]
A figure appeared almost instantly behind him, and a lazy voice sounded: "So young, truly terrifying~"
He had short, slightly curly black hair. He wore sunglasses on his face, a circle of regrettable stubble, and was tall and thin, dressed in a yellow and white striped suit, a purple tie, a dark green shirt, and white leather shoes.
"Moshimoshi~ Young man, you're truly remarkable, but your journey ends here..."
"Admiral Kizaru, Borsalino, as expected, you're the fastest at traveling."
Yang Tao smiled faintly. Borsalino looked at Yang Tao, who could still smile in such a situation, and also put away the frivolous expression on his face, looking at Yang Tao seriously and lowering his voice, saying:
"You've gone too far this time. There are still many innocent people in Holy Land Mary Geoise."
Hearing Kizaru's words, Yang Tao didn't refute, just nodded slightly and said in a teasing tone: "Borsalino, when the Celestial Dragons massacred ordinary people and slaves, the Navy, Cipher Pol Organization, and even the entire world revered them as the masters of this world."
"And I, now, have done what the Celestial Dragons did, yet you tell me it's too much... Borsalino, are you implying that good people deserve to die?"
Borsalino had nothing to say.
"No choice, for my salary, I can only kill you."
"Each serving their own master, no need for further words."
Yang Tao was already prepared.
Borsalino's expression was solemn: "Speed is power, then... have you ever been kicked by light speed?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Kizaru's attack was already close to Yang Tao's body, but as his foot landed on Yang Tao's body, his body flew backward uncontrollably.
Yang Tao fanned himself with a Battlesign and laughed: "Your speed is good, Borsalino..."
Borsalino's attack speed was very fast, but... the drawback of his light speed kick was that he had to de-elementalize when kicking someone.
And his speed was not truly light speed. If it were truly light speed, then without other attack methods, Kizaru could simply destroy the entire planet by maintaining light speed and running.
Facing Yang Tao's taunt, Kizaru didn't speak but slowly pulled out a golden shimmering long sword from his palm.
The next moment, countless attacks drowned him.
After all, Kizaru wasn't idle, and neither were the others. The scene of watching and gossiping from the anime didn't appear.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Yang Tao opened a wooden door and walked in, then the wooden door disappeared into thin air.
"Damn it, is it the Door-Door Devil Fruit?"
"Impossible! How could there be two Door-Door Devil Fruits in this world!"
"Where is Blueno now? Call him over immediately!"
Everyone fell into chaos. Just as they were at a loss, the disappeared wooden door reappeared. Yang Tao's figure was now behind the wooden door, looking at them.
"I came out, and I came back again. Come and hit me, you idiots!"
"Go, kill him!"
A dense crowd rushed towards the narrow wooden door. Yang Tao frantically turned and ran, but this time the wooden door did not disappear, as if he had forgotten to close the door in his haste.
The 'panicked' Yang Tao only ran about ten meters before stopping, turning around, and smiling as he looked in the direction of the wooden door.
The area around the wooden door had been encased in obsidian by him, so there was no need to worry about affecting others in the Overworld.
The fastest unlucky person disappeared into thin air the moment he stepped through the wooden door.
No one who dared to come over was weak. Upon discovering this extremely bizarre scene, they all stopped.
"I'm right here... Come in and catch me, I promise not to resist."
One of the people, possibly an officer, pointed to an agent and said: "Oji, you go try..."
Oji didn't hesitate at all, nodded, and charged towards the wooden door with his long sword. But just like the previous unlucky person, the moment he touched the wooden door, he vanished without a trace.
"Everyone, long-range attack!"
Seeing this scene, that person immediately gave the order. For a time, various flashy and chaotic attacks poured into the Overworld.
Yang Tao silently raised the Battlesign in his hand, constantly thinking of two words.
"Repair... Repair..."
Those outside who launched physical attacks soon fell to the ground, their faces as pale as paper.
Including, but not limited to, those guys who used Rokushiki.
However, Yang Tao wasn't feeling well either. The Battlesign couldn't block Devil Fruit-type long-range attacks, because those attacks were implicitly considered elemental attacks.
"If you don't come in, then I'm going out~"
Dimensional Slash!
A Dimensional Slash, as if tearing space, appeared behind the wooden door. Those who were squeezed together were silently sucked in.
'Dragon Twister...'
Yang Tao directly transformed into a whirlwind top, wielding the Yamato and Battlesign, and rushed out of the Overworld.
These two moves alone took care of all the guys who were already low on HP due to the Battlesign.
