Chapter 486: Night
That is, the night before the decisive battle, after the world's best people and the Hundred Beast Pirates and the Big Mom Pirates arrived, Locke took Annie to the edge of the island.
Looking at the endless pirate ships in the distance, the corners of Locke's mouth were slightly hooked, revealing a wicked smile, and then turned back to Anne beside God and said, "Let's start putting it!" ”
"Yes!" Anne nodded her cute head and said with a serious face.
Seeing Anne nodding, Locke did not hesitate, only to see that at this time, a burst of purple light came from Locke's body, under the cover of night, and continued to move towards the opposite ship.
It was at this time that Anne also activated her ability and quietly enveloped those on the opposite ship.
With Locke's actions on their side, the slightly weaker people on the opposite ship had fallen into a dream unconsciously at this time, and even those who were strong only felt a slight vibration, and then, nothing was noticed.
Only the two leaders of the pirate group felt this energy when it came, but this energy only swept slightly past them, and did not act on them.
When they wanted to find out where the energy went, they didn't feel anything, so they just thought that the other party was just using the energy to check their reality and reality, so they didn't care.
Of course, for the success of this plan, Locke deliberately avoided the ships where Kaido and Charlotte Lingling were located, after all, the other party was strong, as long as there was something wrong around, it could make them alert.
After basically covering the other ships in this way, Locke stopped his energy transmission, and at the same time nodded to Anne and sat directly on the ground, closing his eyes.
By the time Locke opened his eyes, the surrounding environment had changed dramatically, and the boundless ocean that was originally in front of him, as well as the dozens of ships surrounding the island, had disappeared at this time.
Now in front of him was a desert island, with some dilapidated houses and trees dotted among them.
At this time, those who were pulled into the dream by Anne did not appear on this island, but were still on their ship, but at this time their ship was no longer sailing on the sea, but floating in the sky.
At this time, they have unconsciously accepted the fact that they are now dreaming, and at the same time, they also know that they will jump to the island below later, and then carry out a certain fight, if they can survive to the end, they will become the vanguard of tomorrow's battle, fighting for the Scarlet Legion.
And these are all when they enter the dream, Locke asked Anne to imitate the appearance of the person they respect the most in their hearts in the dream, and tell them, and after they are transformed, the person they respect the most in their hearts is of course the leader of the Scarlet Legion, although they have not seen it in reality, but when they are transformed, the image of the other party is already deeply rooted in their minds.
And because they directly told them in their dreams, they were not surprised when they saw the leader of the Scarlet Legion that they respected in their hearts, and they were not surprised when they saw that figure was as majestic and powerful as the leader in their hearts, so they would not doubt it.
And like this, when they have no feeling at all, they are directly pulled into the dream realm, such a powerful strength can only be done by the all-powerful leader in their hearts.
In this way, since they have no doubts, of course they will do what the other party asks, and this is a dream, and they will not cause any harm to their bodies, and even if they do, their bodies will be fine.
However, the leader just told them that they will lose some of their strength after they go down, and they will wake up if they die on the desert island below, and no one has only one chance, these are what the leader told them, so that as long as they win this test, then they can be the vanguard tomorrow, and at the same time, they can get more resources in the days to come, improve their strength.
And what they know is of course what Locke asked Anne to tell them, as long as they believe it, then they have fallen into Locke's trap, as long as they die on this island, although they will not really die, but at the moment of death, their souls will be weakened to a certain extent, and it is at this time that the energy of Locke, who has been lurking on the edge of Anne's dream, will seize the moment when the other party exits the dream, give the final blow to the other party's soul, and directly eliminate the other party from the soul.
Of course, some people's souls are already strong, and they may be fine if they are attacked by Locke, but it doesn't matter, after all, the soul has been damaged, and it can't be repaired by blood-colored energy.
There has been research on this blood-colored energy Locke before, and it has been found that this energy is actually only acting on the body, if the soul is in the body, then of course there will be energy protection, but when the soul leaves the body, it is defenseless.
And Locke's attack is when the other party comes out of the dream and the soul has not completely returned to the body, of course, such an attack will not be blocked.
Although Annie's dream does not directly pull the soul of the opposite person out of the other party's body, but the dream world can make the soul and body of the opposite person only produce a touch of something to block, which weakens the defense of the blood-colored energy, and the death of the other party in the dream realm, which further weakens the strength of the soul and the blood-colored energy, Locke's attack can be said to be just when the opponent is the weakest.
If this can't successfully kill the opponent, it can only mean that the opponent's soul strength is really strong.
Of course, even if he can't kill the other party, he can make his soul weak for a while, and perfectly stagger tomorrow's decisive battle.
Although Locke is still very confident that he can defeat tomorrow's decisive battle, but since this can weaken the opponent's strength, of course, it is to weaken a wave first, after all, the pirates who follow Whitebeard on their side can't let them lose too much, after all, they don't have the ability of the other party to be constantly reborn, and if they die, they are really dead.
Although they also have a formation on their bodies, this is only able to prevent them from being corrupted by the other party when they are fighting, and it can only become a kind of insurance for the other party's people, and it cannot save their lives.
So after considering this, Locke decisively told Whitebeard about his plan, and the other party nodded and agreed.
