Kapitel 205: Chapter 205: New Hollow
The atmosphere shattered, and the island trembled as a simple yet profound strike seemed to cleave the world in two.
The pirates under the Golden Lion's command stared blankly at the cold corpse before them.
Shock, panic, fear, confusion—these emotions gripped them, leaving them unable to accept the reality before their eyes.
"Captain!"
"Captain is dead!"
"I can't believe it! I can't believe Captain, the great pirate from the same era as Whitebeard and Roger, could die so easily!"
"It must be an illusion! This has to be an illusion!"
Torn, continuous screams brought them back to reality. The cold, unfeeling gaze of Hinata sent shivers down their spines.
Their internal defenses had been utterly shattered.
"Run! Monsters! They're all monsters!"
"Get out of here! Get out of here!"
"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I'll join the White Demon Pirates!"
"No!"
Hinata, as if not hearing their pleas, continued to mercilessly reap the lives of the pirates. Ryujiro had no intention of stopping her.
These pirates were vicious criminals, and their deaths were inevitable, especially after their insolent remarks.
Looking at Shiki's corpse, a vast area of void began to engulf the island. A strange, unsettling sensation caused the remaining pirates to freeze in place.
The scene shifted dramatically. Even Carmen and Kun, who were nearby, looked pale as they watched the bizarre unfolding.
"Roar—!"
The angry roar of the Hollow shook the hearts of those present.
"Thud, thud, thud—!"
Heavy footsteps echoed as the Hollow crushed the ground beneath it, its feet embedded into the earth.
The Hollow turned Golden Lion, with his golden hair and eerie mask, was terrifying.
The pirates' souls were being devoured by the void.
"What are these black monsters?"
Hinata paused her actions and glanced at Ryujiro.
Ryujiro nodded.
In the next moment, Hinata reappeared beside Ryujiro. Carmen and Kun were left dazed, their legs trembling.
The horrific scene made their legs go weak. The black monsters were not human; their presence and the cold aura they emitted were chilling.
What had their captain done? What were these black creatures?
A devil fruit power?
Impossible—no devil fruit could create life.
Could their captain be a demon? Or a god?
Ryujiro's methods were beyond their understanding, and such power was terrifying even in the pirate world.
The island continued to shake. Without the support of Shiki's Devil Fruit ability, it began to descend.
After another jolt, the island stabilized temporarily.
Ryujiro's power was holding the island up for now. It wouldn't fall just yet.
"Don't let me down, Shiki."
Ryujiro had no worries about Shiki's refusal to submit. After showing such overwhelming power, Shiki should now realize Ryujiro's greatness.
Shiki had been Ryujiro's first Hollow in this world.
The Hollow turned Golden Lion continued to dominate, consuming the remaining Hollows.
His spiritual pressure surged, but despite devouring over a hundred pirates, Shiki had not yet reached the level of an Vasto Lorde Arrancar.
Ryujiro wasn't concerned about Shiki failing to become an Arrancar. The stronger the soul, the more nutrients it required.
A rift in space opened, swallowing the Hollowfied Shiki into the void.
Now, Shiki would rampage in the void until he reached the level of an Vasto Lorde. Ryujiro would keep a close watch on his actions.
Turning back, Ryujiro saw Carmen and Kun still in shock. He sighed.
"It's over. Let's head back to the ship."
"If you have any questions, I'll answer them."
Carmen and Kun shivered, exchanging a silent glance.
The island, losing its gravitational support, began to fall. The pressure from the clouds and the atmosphere created strange noises.
Below, in the sea, the Flowing Cloud Pirates were having a celebration on their ship.
This crew had some reputation in the Grand Line, and their ship had a bounty of eighty million Berries for a swordsman.
As they celebrated the arrival of a new member, a massive shadow suddenly covered them.
The captain of the Flowing Cloud Pirates frowned.
Is it going to rain heavily?
When he looked up, the wine glass in his hand fell to the deck.
Captain Cloud stared in fear as the island plummeted towards the sea.
"Run!"
Captain Cloud shouted, abandoning the pirate ship and jumping into the sea. The other pirates, still confused, looked up.
In an instant, all their expressions froze in terror, unable to move as fear gripped them.
Boom—!
A deafening roar engulfed the pirate ship, sending towering waves crashing into the sea. The island's impact generated waves that reached several dozen meters high.
Even though Captain Cloud had escaped the ship, he couldn't avoid the island's collision.
The pirate crew was obliterated, countless corpses floating on the sea. The island tilted and was eventually submerged by the ocean, turning the water a bright red.
A notorious pirate crew was annihilated by a disaster beyond their control.
Ryujiro's consciousness observed the void, a small version of Hueco Mundo, watching as Shiki transformed into an Vasto Lorde, a smile forming on his lips.
Shiki did not disappoint him.
Even as an Vasto Lorde level Arrancar, Shiki retained his fierce pride, befitting an old-generation pirate.
After Shiki's departure, the floating fruit did not take residence in nearby fruits.
As Ryujiro had predicted, this method had a chance of success. Perhaps the Dark Fruit indeed had the ability to strip Devil Fruits.
Blackbeard. At this time, he had already taken down Whitebeard's crew. His presence had not significantly affected the original timeline.
"Boom—"
The Golden Ark hit the sea, sending enormous waves and scaring the marine life into fleeing.
Surrounded by a thick fog, several abandoned pirate ships floated around.
This place was strangely familiar.
Ahead, in the mist, a massive shadow gradually emerged—a three-masted ship moving with a sinister and eerie aura.
