Chapter 33: The Prologue of the Great War
"Ahem"
As soon as he returned to his strength, a strong feeling of suffocation filled his heart, and then he opened his mouth, and a large amount of seawater was immediately sucked into Raphael's lungs, and he couldn't help coughing.
"That scum, I'm going to make your life worse than dead!"
Opening his blood-red eyes, Raphael took a breath and began to look ahead, although he could not make a sound in the surrounding seawater, Raphael still made a vicious oath in his heart.
There was endless darkness all around, there was no light, not even a little fish and shrimp, and there were no living things.
But it's no wonder, after all, there are a large number of giant beast breaths on the surface of the sea, coupled with the terrifying overlord domineering aura of Raphael and Roger, even if they are not stunned, it is estimated that this group of creatures would have fled in fright.
"Huh?"
After turning his feet upside down, Raphael found that he was in this seabed at this time, fortunately he had been maintaining the ability of the Shinra Heavenly Expedition just now, resisting the sea water, and not letting his body be injured, otherwise, with Roger's huge power that destroyed the world just now, his body would definitely not be able to withstand this impact, and maybe even his body would be embedded in this subsurface rock formation.
Some places were very dark, and the Sharingan could not function at all in this place, and it was not a place to fight, so Raphael closed the Sharingan and the Eight Gates.
Just as Raphael closed the Eight Doors Dunjia, a super pressure and a huge tearing sensation spread throughout his body.
"The body, I really can't bear it, the power brought by opening the eight gates!"
Ignoring the strong pressure of the sea, Raphael trembled, and the huge pain made Raphael's thinking begin to be a little confused, but Raphael endured it.
"Gotta find the ghost"
Sweeping around, Raphael struggled to rely on perception, and began to search for the place where the ghost was located, after all, the ghost was a demon knife, and it had always been Raphael's saber, its breath, as long as it was not too far away, Raphael could still sense it.
Soon, Raphael found the place where the ghost was, and with his breath, without looking, Raphael touched the hilt of the ghost's knife, and then a strange green glow suddenly made the surroundings clear.
The body of the ghost knife began to tremble slightly when Raphael held it, like a child abandoned by his family.
Gently stroking the hilt of the knife, Raphael soothed it, and did not use his consciousness to communicate with it, but considered how to return to the surface.
After all, Raphael is a devil fruit capable in the eyes of the world, a landlubber, and cannot swim.
"Yes!" Following the pale green light emitted by the blade of Onitoru's blade, Raphael found that Onitoru was still stuck in the fragment of the deck where he was standing just now, and the fragment was also inserted in the rock formation.
Raphael estimated that it must have been caused by the impact just now.
Then Raphael had a flash of inspiration, if he had been holding on to the ghost and following this buoyancy, wouldn't it be okay to float up.
Moreover, the war above is estimated to be over long ago when they drift to where they go, and when the time comes, they will definitely search for themselves everywhere, although they will think that they will die at the bottom of the sea, but with the mentality of the Warring States, they must have the attitude of seeing people alive and seeing corpses when they die, so they will definitely order the soldiers to search.
So, Raphael lifted the plank inserted in the rock formation with one hand, and following this buoyancy, Raphael let the ghost go through the back of the knife, and began to float slowly upwards in the opposite direction of the buoyancy.
Since, Raphael didn't know how long it would take to float to the surface, so Raphael directly put his body in suspended animation without breathing.
About two hours later, a dazzling light shone on Raphael's body, and Raphael knew that he should be at the surface of the sea.
So in an instant, all the functions of the body begin to recover.
Then the thick pain returned, and the lungs were filled with some seawater. Raphael couldn't hold back his cough anymore.
At this moment, a voice, although he couldn't hear what he was saying, but the sound of the navy's exclusive siren, Raphael was still clear, so he no longer held on, and he fainted directly and didn't know anything
"Most of this blood is lost, the body is gradually losing heat, and the mind is also in a state of suspended animation, hurry up, send the brigadier to the emergency room! Start the surgery! ”
Looking at the stretcher on the stretcher soaked in seawater and some whitish wounds, the medical staff's face also changed, this whole body injury, the blood of his whole body must be soaked in seawater and cannot heal itself, most of it is lost, the most critical chest, it seems to have been hit hard, collapsed, if there is thinking is okay, it can be suppressed, this is no thinking, the lungs are resisted, breathing must be difficult, and the body functions are slowly stopping to function, if it is an ordinary person, it must be dead and can not die again
When Raphael was sent to the emergency room and began to be rescued, a major incident occurred at this time in the Holy Land of Mary Joy.
Office of the Five Old Stars.
The old man wearing a flat hat and holding a cane stood there straight, holding a report card in one hand, and said with a helpless look: "The Navy's search force reported just now that Brigadier Raphael has been found, although he is being rescued, but with his ability, he should be able to survive." So what do you think about his killing of Lieutenant General Stei? ”
With that, the old man raised his head and looked at the four old men sitting around.
It seems that looking at him there is no doubt that Raphael will float up from the sea.
"In that kind of war, he can still show his head, defeat the combat captain Inar under the command of the Golden Lion, and save the navy in a desperate situation many times, and even the last strength is raging, this man's strength is probably no less than the highest combat power!"
At this time, the old man sitting on the sofa with an unknown level of knife in his arms also began to speak.
"Let's not talk about this man's strength, but killing Lieutenant General Si Di in front of everyone, although Lieutenant General Si Di is at fault first, but we have to deal with the following crimes!"
On the side, the yellow-haired old man who clenched his fists with both hands said with a little headache.
After all, Raphael's incident is not big or small, and if it is not handled properly, it will certainly cause very terrible turmoil to the navy.
