Who's calling the fleet?

Obviously, there is no one, at least "Saka", who has beaten Zoro all over his body and thinks that everything is under control.

But if it's justice, Nami, who is worried that the situation on the island will get out of control and the dark ritual will not be able to stop it, has indeed called the embodiment of justice in advance before the action, the yellow flash of the navy, Admiral Polusalino!

And with Polusalino's speed and reaction, there will naturally be no bloody plots such as "justice is late". Especially the situation on this island of Askar, which is still very concerned about him.

That's right, unlike the truth of the "King's Treasure" left behind by the previous huge kingdom, Polusalino only has reasonable speculation - all the secrets on Askar Island today, whether it is the resurrection of the Seven-Star Sword, or the so-called "ultimate killing and destruction" that was sealed hundreds of years ago, including some prophecies, Polusalino has extremely accurate information. Therefore, it can be said that he has been waiting for Nami's signal for a long time, and then directly "justice from heaven" and "heroes appear".

After all, the original king's treasure, along with its location "Evolutionary Experiment Island 0", has been in the dust for hundreds of years after the fall of the huge kingdom, and almost no one has found it; And the dark forces on Aska Island not only swept the world once hundreds of years ago, but also had victims over the years - combined with these facts, the existing historical records, and the various huge kingdom materials that he decoded with Dr. Vegapunk and Robin, it is easy for Polusalino to find out the truth about the secrets of Aska Island.

And, even one of the victims, who is now a feared figure on the seas......

Yes, this person is the previous holder of the Seven Star Sword, "Moonlight" Moria - he appeared as a high-ranking cadre on the side of the Revolutionary Army during the former Demon Slaying Order Incident in the Clifford Kingdom, and obtained this demon sword after the defeat of the previous holder of the Seven Star Sword.

At first, Moria felt that this was his luck, and it was also the key to his return to the top and even further, so he decisively chose to find a place to be obscene like in the original plot, fully develop the power of this knife, and "precipitate himself".

But whether it was the great change in his temperament, the tension between him and the revolutionary army, or the complete loss of control when he was approached by Polusalino and Doflamingo, it all showed that he was just another slave of the demon sword of the Seven Star Sword.

Or more accurately, Moria, like the rest of the Seven Star Sword holders, is nothing more than the dark force behind the Seven Star Sword - the slave of the Phantom Beast Bat Fruit, which now controls Saka and is almost one with his consciousness!

As we all know, in the early days of the development of the plot of One Piece, the old thief Oda once used the mouth of passers-by to express the world setting of the lodger demon in the Devil Fruit. But not many people really took this idea seriously at the beginning, and many more just saw it as a symbolic statement - to highlight the mystery and power of the Devil Fruit.

But then as the plot progressed, whether it was the revelation of Doflamingo, the "newspaper king" in the Dressrosa chapter, or the ghost island chapter, Luffy's ability was updated from rubber fruit to Nika fruit - everyone began to re-examine the magical power of the devil fruit.

In particular, the discussion of the five old stars about Devil Fruits:

"Animal fruits exist by the will of animals, and rubber fruits are lodged with 'Nika', the god of the sun, so their real name is 'Nika fruit'."

There is no doubt that although what the five old stars said may not be completely accurate, at least the content of the small meeting they held internally is still credible. Therefore, based on their speeches, after the Onishima chapter, many marine scientists set off a new round of "research" on Devil Fruits.

And although Polusalino is not a sea scientist, he really traveled to the world of pirates and had the most intimate contact with the Devil Fruit. Coupled with the various secret actions he has been engaged in for so many years, he is also deeply aware of the accuracy and limitations of the theory that "there are demons in the Devil Fruit".

"Accuracy" is easy to understand, but the limitations, just like the length of a person's ten fingers, although the Devil Fruit is a possibility of future human evolution conceived by scientists in the Great Kingdom, from a popular point of view, these possibilities themselves are actually "strong and weak".

For example, animal devil fruits, the so-called "relying on the will of animals", represent only some primitive wildness. Reflected in today's capable people is some personality fine-tuning and hobbies.

And the phantom beast species in the animal system Devil Fruit, perhaps in the period of the Great Kingdom, the original source was really some powerful intelligent creature or strong person that actually existed. And in the process of hundreds of years of ability transmission, it has absorbed a part of those powerful people themselves, and has become a real will entity to be awakened—which has a greater impact on today's capable people.

In Polusalino's view, the phantom beast bat fruit and the phantom beast Nika fruit are the two extremes of the same type:

Nika Fruit represents the "Sun God Nika", who freed the enslaved people and established a huge kingdom 800 years ago, and undoubtedly belongs to the camp of goodness; The Bat Fruit may represent the collection of the wills of the previous abilities, and it may not be accurate to say that it is completely evil.

It's not that Porusalino discriminates against bats, but the fruit itself says a lot about its own abilities - the bat fruit allows the capable person to absorb the lifespan of others by sucking on the blood of others, and change themselves back to the way they were when they were young, and even the ability can be restored to when they were young. At night, you can even create darkness to disturb the minds of your enemies while hiding them so that they can't find them.

Many people think that there is no difference between evil and righteousness in the power itself, but the fact is that in the face of the temptation of some power, most people will not be able to resist it, and gradually become captives of power, the embodiment of evil.

You know, who is the only known ability host of Bat Fruit in the original Pirate plot? It is the top powerhouse of the sea, the lonely Red Earl Balorrick Ledfield!

But even a man like him was deceived by the power of the bat fruit, and when he absorbed the life of others to regain his youth, he forgot his important partners around him, and almost became a slave to the evil force.

If it weren't for the fact that the enemy he encountered was the protagonist Luffy and others, facing an impossible enemy like him, he still shouted fetters and partners and rushed up and carried out "personality corrections" on him, the fate of the Red Earl and the changes in the situation in the world are really uncertain.

But no matter what, even a man like the Red Earl almost lost control, and the situation of the rest of the ability hosts of this evil sect's bat fruit in history can be imagined. And hundreds of years have passed, and the will of these people, because of the unique ability mechanism of the bat fruit, has gradually formed a chaotic and yearning collective consciousness of destruction, which resides in this fruit.

Zoro's friend Saka, the boy who once pursued the "Sword of Justice", was controlled by this consciousness - and the seven-star sword in his hand that was destroyed and resurrected was the "bait", "trap", and "filter" of this dark consciousness.

Just like some carnivorous plants in nature, in order to be able to hunt prey, they will produce fragrant nectar and sweet fruits, which are used to tempt their prey, such is the case of the Seven Star Sword.

The wielders of these seven-star swords, including Moria, will be bewitched by its powerful power amplification, and gradually open their minds and bodies to it. And when they are completely controlled, they will instinctively come to this Aska Island and become puppets or sacrifices chosen by the dark consciousness in the Bat Fruit - of course, in their own opinion, they just discovered the ancient memories remaining in the Seven Star Sword, and took the initiative to find the secret treasure of the sea, trying to get stronger power.

"Honestly, although you're still using the tone of the best friend of the Green Algae Head Swordsman, don't you think it's very unpleasant?"

The cloak of justice was self-exalted, and Polusalino looked at Saka in front of him playfully, and assumed the exaggerated pose of the Void Erlang's legs, "You don't have a sense of independence, right?" Whoever eats you, who do you become? ”

"Hey, that's a ......"

"Tides of Blood!!"

In fact, whether it is the real Saka himself, or the dark consciousness that controls him now, he has seen Polusalino - the former through various news on the sea, and the latter himself emitted the sorrowful cry when the seven-star sword was melted by Polusalino with a flash.

So, not ready to force Polusalino like a traditional villain, Dark Saka made a decisive move!

His body, wrapped in black and red lines, seemed to have been cut by countless sharp blades, and incisions appeared all over his body—scarlet blood flowed out of the incisions, and as if it had life, it flew towards Porusalino, and then circled and grew around him.

"I've always been curious about one thing—can someone like you, suck your own blood to gain strength and complete an infinite cycle?"

Polusalino looked with interest at the move of "Saka", which had turned into a manic blood storm and "trapped" himself, representing thousands of mentally handicapped bar friends who asked questions.

"Hmph, flamboyant - it!!"

There was no doubt that Dark Saka still didn't mean to deal with Polusalino, and the manic blood storm began to shrink suddenly under the red full moon, with a posture of engulfing and crushing the central Polusalino directly.

But......

"Toilet Cleaner! (Genesis Light)"

- Although there are no "Sky Dragons of Osiris", "Giant Soldiers of Obelisk", and "Winged Dragons of the Sun God", they are all red, blue and yellow, and Admiral Polusalino, who is the yellow of the Navy, still raised his hands and let the divine light shine in his hands.

- In fact, it is the simplest way to release the power of the glittering fruit in the form of light, which is rough and not very efficient.

But the absolute disparity in strength allows Polusalino to play like this - after all, no matter how big it is, how terrifying it will be in the future, the current dark Saka is just a chaotic dark consciousness attached to the "ordinary swordsman" Saka after all.

Even if he has the strength of those sailors in the naval dojo, and even absorbs a part of Sauron, in front of Polusalino, it is not enough to see after all.

"So, obscene development is the right way, what are you talking about, who are you competing with? Do you really think there is a new protection period? ”

"Ahhhh

The blood, which represented the source of Dark Saka's power, spurted uncontrollably from his body like a surging spring. A radiance of gentleness and fury repeatedly sliced through his body, pouring into his body from the myriad cuts he had previously unleashed his powers, attempting to melt the clusters of consciousness that controlled Saka.

"It's not over yet!! This is not our end...... Uhh!!hh ”

Dark Saka trembled in the golden light, instinctive effort to maintain the disintegrating consciousness. But the devastating power of the sparkling fruit that Polusalino urged enveloped him, and all the bat fruit capable individuals and emotional instincts that made up the dark consciousness group were overwhelmed. They're shivering, collapsing, and fleeing.

And at this time, the three locations on Aska Island also emitted invisible fluctuations. The wave swept through Dark Saka's body, as if it had sent another furious explosive to the already collapsing dam, speeding up the destruction—

"No, come back, come back! It hurts, it hurts! ”

Dark Saka stretched out his broken hand, trying to wrestle the power that had passed back into his body, struggling frantically within the cage of light, his appearance a little ridiculous and a little pathetic.

But anyway - the centuries-old dark legend that shrouded the island of Askar, the evil history of the seven-star sword on the sea, ended in the light.

ps: During this time, I had an operation, and then during the recovery period, it coincided with the live-action version of One Piece and various boutique games, so I broke off for two months (my heart was weak, and I kowtowed and apologized

PS: But the update, now fully restored! And in a word-combined with the latest comic plot, dignified serialization! (This chapter is also the update time set before~)

ps: Let me sort out the plot before the break - Porusalino assigned Luffy and his gang who were on a so-called pirate adventure a secret mission to recover and explore the legacy of the huge kingdom. They then travel to the island of Askar, the birthplace of the Seven Star Swords that appear in the theatrical version, where they meet Sarka, the best friend of Sauron's boy, who is consumed by darkness in order to protect his beloved shrine maiden

ps: But one thing to say, the latest plot of the pirate comics is really close to the brain hole I opened before - the difference is that the second uncle Huang is completely out of character, and he is being manipulated by the eldest nephew 2333

PS: Tomorrow's update is around half past eleven in the evening~
