Bab 87: Chapter 87: The Death of a Celestial Dragon
[You chose option 2]
[Next task unlocked: Escape in broad daylight as Loget Larvin. (Current second stage)]
Smoke wafted from the gun barrel.
The bullet silently traced a straight line through the air, directly entering the back of Saint Rosward's heart, bursting into a brilliant spray of blood.
Everyone was stunned, their expressions filled with terror as they watched Saint Rosward collapse into a pool of blood. The next second, accompanied by a piercing scream, a group of guards and bodyguards immediately surrounded him from all directions, checking his injuries.
"It's bad, the bullet hit his organs. He needs surgery immediately!"
"Doctor, doctor!"
The scene suddenly became chaotic. Many nobles tried to flee to the exits but were stopped by the guards at the doors.
"No one is allowed to leave!"
"Everyone stay still, we need to find the culprit who attacked the Celestial Dragon!" One of the bodyguards shouted.
As his words fell, many eyes turned towards the backstage entrance.
The reason was clear; at least those present, including Sanji, Luffy, Kid, and Law, clearly saw that the bullet came from that direction.
At the same time, Vivian lit a cigarette, holding it in his mouth, and stood openly at the backstage entrance, waving to Luffy and the others.
Luffy: (⊙o⊙)
Everyone else: (°ー°〃)
"That guy… dared to attack a Celestial Dragon?"
"He didn't just attack, he killed the Celestial Dragon."
Killer, standing next to Kid, glanced at Saint Rosward's condition and said, "His heart was pierced. Even if a doctor comes now, he probably won't survive."
Unless there's some special Devil Fruit ability, even the best doctor in the world couldn't save this Celestial Dragon.
"This is getting troublesome."
Capone Bege, who had just entered the auction hall, said while holding a cigarette, "When did newcomers become so crazy, daring to kill a Celestial Dragon… It's one thing to attract an Admiral, but if another one comes, will anyone leave this island alive today?"
He was a bit panicked.
At the same time, his expression towards Vivian became very complex.
On one hand, he felt this guy had ruined his plans to enter the New World, but on the other hand…
He really admired this guy for doing what none of them dared to do.
"What a madman."
"Just like that guy named Larvin."
"No, even crazier. After all, Larvin didn't directly kill a Celestial Dragon."
Just as they finished speaking, they saw Vivian temporarily lift his Clow Card magic and shout loudly, "I, Loget Larvin, swear from today that as long as I live, I will one day wipe out all of you Celestial Dragons!"
Everyone: =???=???(●???●|||)
Shock once again filled their faces.
Bege even dropped the cigarette from his mouth, standing there in a daze.
What did he just say?
He said he was Loget Larvin?!
"No wonder…"
No wonder he dared to kill a Celestial Dragon!
"I knew it, how could there be two reckless guys in one day? Turns out it was the same person!"
"That's right, besides this Logue Town's Larvin, I don't think anyone else would dare to assassinate a Celestial Dragon."
Everyone suddenly realized.
Hearing Vivian's words, the Celestial Dragon's guards and Charlos, who had not yet been affected, became furious.
"Catch that guy for me!"
Charlos gritted his teeth and said, "He must be killed to avenge my father. I offer a bounty of 500 million Berries for his head!"
"500 million Berries?" Hearing this number, all the pirates present were tempted.
But Kid was the first to get up and head towards the exit of the auction hall.
"Kid, don't you want the 500 million Berries?" Bege asked him.
"500 million Berries?" Kid couldn't help but laugh, "Stay here, avoiding the Admiral's pursuit while catching a guy with a bounty of 140 million Berries for such a small amount of money?"
He's not an idiot; why would he do something so foolish?
"Hey, Luffy, go rescue Miss Camie, we should leave too."
At the same time, Sanji reminded Luffy from behind.
They were originally struggling with how to break the stalemate, but unexpectedly, someone did something so unbelievable.
However, Luffy muttered to himself, "Logue Town's Larvin… I'll remember this guy's name. If I get the chance, I'll definitely thank him for saving Camie."
"Luffy…" Nami looked at Luffy in surprise.
"Now, let's quickly take Camie and escape from here!"
With that, he punched away several guards who were trying to attack Vivian with flintlock guns and then instantly joined the chaotic battle.
On the other side.
"The… the Celestial Dragon was killed?!"
Kuto sat in his seat, looking at Saint Rosward, who had been carried away on a stretcher, lifeless, and couldn't help but feel shaken.
He actually… actually killed a Celestial Dragon.
Just a pirate, yet he did something that I, as a Navy Officer, would never dare to think of in my life…
"I… I'm not as good as him," Kuto lowered his head, full of shame.
Tashigi: "…"
Is this the time to say such things?
"Should we continue to catch the Straw Hat crew or chase that guy named Logue Town's Larvin?" Tashigi hesitated.
"Logue Town's Larvin killed a Celestial Dragon… so…" Kuto replied, indicating his stance.
"Then I'll go after the Straw Hat kid, and you go rescue the slaves imprisoned backstage," Tashigi said.
But just as she finished speaking.
Buzz—!
An invisible pressure spread through the air.
In an instant, all the nobles who wanted to escape the venue fainted to the ground, even Tashigi felt dizzy and had to hold onto a chair to steady herself.
"What happened?"
"That old man…"
Everyone, including Luffy, focused their attention on the white-haired old man slowly walking out from the backstage.
At the same time.
"Hiss~~~~" Vivian exhaled a smoke ring, unaffected, and walked past him, whispering something softly.
As the words fell, the old man widened his eyes, turned to look at Vivian's departing figure, and stood there in a daze.
