Chapter 758 You've Passed

[Chapter Serialization·The Third Women's Country 10·"I am Flame Lily, the emperor of the Nine Snakes, you can also call me Granny"] [Supply exceeded the target, the warship has enough supplies, and it is time to set sail again. Talking about the topic of the Women's Country, Hai Yina smiled and said that it would be more interesting to find that place by themselves! And just at this time, the short old woman who was extremely wary of them before came over and introduced herself solemnly. Hearing the old woman's name, Hai Yina's expression moved slightly...]——

〖Today, one year after the Battle of Marineford, 〗

[The Calm Belt, New Nine Snakes·Trial Island]

[Heavy snowfall——]

Bang! The powerful fists and palms collided, scattering the flying snow.

Luffy was wearing a neat red coat sewn by his mother. The open hem of his coat fluttered in the cold wind. His invisible domineering aura made it so that no animal dared to approach him within a radius of several kilometers.

Around him, Zoro sheathed his three swords and untied the turban from his arm, his eyes focused, like a ferocious beast about to show its claws.

Sanji was wearing a neat black suit with gold accessories on the shoulders. He lit a cigarette with a stubble and stepped on it. Flames rose from his leather shoes and melted the snow.

"Let's go!"

Luffy raised his head, smiled with a determined look in his eyes, "I've worked hard for a whole year, and today is the day!"

"That's right." Zoro tied his turban tightly, pressed the three sword handles on his waist, and followed Luffy's left side.

"Hmph." Sanji exhaled a puff of smoke and walked on Luffy's right side.

Not far to the left, several figures were walking slowly over the snow. The weapon in Usopp's hand switched between a pistol, a slingshot, and a sniper rifle like a Rubik's Cube; Franky was burly and looked like a pervert, and Chopper next to him was equally tall and strong, like a monster, but he seemed to look more and more like Lynch, whom he idolized; Brook, with a pair of autumn leaves on his shoulder, hummed a song and waved to Luffy and the others.

Sanji smiled and said, "Brook, I'm going to rely on you today."

"Yohoho, I'm not sure whether my ability will have any effect on Mr. Lin Qi!"

"Hey~ Cabbage, hurry up!" Luffy shouted to the other side.

On the hillside on the right, Marian and the others turned around and said, "If you want to join, hurry up..."

"Don't hold me back - Bai Ma, you're right, but shut up!"

Cavendish ran over angrily, and now his eyes have changed, with "eagle eyes" similar to Mihawk's. After practicing the Ripple Fist for a whole year, two months ago, Hakuba's spirit seemed to coexist with him in harmony. Cavendish could control Hakuba's power independently, and he didn't have to worry about Hakuba's sleepwalking at night.

Usopp complained: "He's getting better and better at passing the buck to Hakuba..."

In the snow, the one-armed youth Xiangyun also came over and joined the row of eleven people. Luffy raised his head and saw the gloomy sky with heavy snowflakes flying. On one side, a black dragon was flying, and on the other side, lightning was surging...

"Count me in too." The black dragon turned into A Yu and landed on the ground, saying with a smile

A bolt of lightning struck in front of everyone. Fashionable and beautiful long-haired Nami put one hand in her jeans pocket and carried the golden staff on her shoulder with the other hand. She raised her chin and said, "Let's go. The 'Heart Network' can hear us. Lynch is over there."

Usopp complained: "Why is the action of carrying things so much like Lynch? Is he imitating? - Ugh!"

Usopp felt his hair stand on end when he noticed Nami's eyes glancing at him, and he hid behind Franky's huge body. Thinking about how Nami had often given them electrotherapy training from time to time in the past six months, under the pretext of training them and improving her own abilities, the long-nosed sniper felt like crying but had no tears.

"Hehe." Ah Yu chuckled, "You two are still so close."

Brooke finds Marian and whispers that Mr. Lynch's martial power is invincible, so weakening his mental state becomes the key, and this can only be left to him and Marian.

Marianne nodded...

The wind and snow were howling, Luffy stood in the middle and strode forward. On his left and right were Zoro, Sanji, Nami and others lined up in a row, like nineteen warriors marching forward in the snow without hesitation. Wherever they passed, countless beasts retreated in panic and dared not approach.

…

The closer we got to Lynch's location, the higher the temperature became. Gradually, even the wind and snow melted away, as if we had walked from winter into early spring.

Then into midsummer.

A rolling heat wave hit me in the face, and it seemed that even my hair was burnt and curled up. The smell of volcanic sulfur lingered in the air, and above the dark red and translucent magma pool, the air seemed to be distorted by the heat wave.

By the lava pool, a figure was leaning with arms outstretched, with most of his body submerged in the boiling lava.

"No matter how many times I see this guy, he's always so exaggerated..."

Sanji and the others walked over step by step, and when they got to the front, they found that Lynch was actually soaking in the magma pool - asleep! Usopp said embarrassedly: "Sanji, you are right. I have long stopped treating him as a normal human being!"

“Lynch!!”

Luffy leaned over to Lynch's ear and yelled, "Wake up!!!"

"Um?"

Lynch opened his eyes, "It's Luffy..."

He yawned, turned around and saw Zoro with a turban, Sanji biting a cigarette, Usopp carrying a sniper rifle, Chopper rubbing his hands and others, and immediately understood and smiled, "Is it today?"

"That's right! Today is the day!" Nami waved her golden staff and pointed it at Lynch with great momentum.

Ayu and Marian looked back and asked, "Are you serious about taking two steps back?"

"bring it on!"

Luffy stepped forward and stretched his legs, smiling, "The final test!"

Lin Qi smiled and said, "Not bad!"

That's what they said, but Luffy and his dozen of people waited for a long time, but they didn't see Lynch move, still soaking in the magma pool. Lynch stared at them.

"What's wrong?" Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper tilted their heads in confusion.

Lin Qi said speechlessly: "I need to put on clothes! You don't think you can soak in the magma with pants on, do you?"

"Just wear it!" Nami complained, "It's just a naked butt, what's the big deal... uh..."

Crash! The magma leaped, and Lin Qi stood up directly.

The ladies didn't mind, so of course he didn't care either. He picked up the black cropped pants by the lava pool and put them on. The belt was just an ordinary white cloth belt, which he tied tightly.

Are all men of this size? Nami stroked her chin, lost in thought in shock.

Sanji was unwilling to give up and burst into tears again. Zoro commented calmly, "Idiot."

"Wait a minute! Lynch!" Usopp raised his hand in panic, "You should take off the Magma Fruit first? With this thing, even if we attack together..."

"Is it necessary?" Luffy, Zoro and others looked unhappy.

Lin Qi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I don't have any devil fruit."

“No—huh?!” Cavendish and the others came back to their senses suddenly, staring at Lynch, who was only wearing a pair of pants, with a well-proportioned upper body muscle, like the most perfect work of art, and said in shock, “You are soaking in the magma without the lava fruit?!”

"If the magma man soaks in magma, what exercise effect will there be?" Lin Qi wondered.

Sorry, we thought you were just trying to be cool and relax... everyone thought the same thing.

The lava pool here is naturally not convenient for group battles, so Lynch led them away from this area and returned to the white snow in the vast wind and snow.

"Oh, by the way, I was wondering why I felt like something was missing in my hand."

Lynch stopped, stretched out his arms and opened his hands towards the distance in a certain direction.

"What is Brother Lin Qi doing?" Ah Yu hadn't been here very often recently, so she didn't quite understand.

Zoro smiled and said, "Sometimes you just need to wait a little longer."

"Here it comes!" Chopper looked up.

A Yu and Xiang Yun looked and saw a thin blue-black line flying from a distance. With a "whoosh", it flew into Lin Qi's hand.

Magnet-magnetic fruit? Ah Yu blinked, but didn't Brother Lin Qi say that he didn't have any devil fruit now? "Well, let's get started."

Lin Qi held the stick in one hand and drew a circle with a diameter of about ten meters on the snow. Then he shook his feet. Boom! The snow in the circle evaporated instantly, and a ball of hot air gushed out, flowing and wrapping around Lin Qi.

Lin Qi's voice came from the mist: "Let me out of this circle, or let me land on my back, and you will pass."

Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Nami and others wanted to complain, Lynch, aren't you looking down on others a bit too much? However, after a year of hard training, almost everyone here has at least awakened their Observation Haki... and the terrifying aura that soared into the sky from the figure holding the golden iron rod in the heat made everyone deeply understand... Lynch didn't mean to be joking at all.

boom!!

On the snowy day of the Nine Snake Trial Island, there were sword energy, flames, lightning, music, oil paint... The black dragon waved its claws, domineering and sweeping away the flying snow.

Boom…Boom…

The entire island seemed to be shaking from time to time. Even the most ferocious monsters were trembling and lying dormant.

Boom…

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Boom…

The loud noises of the battle mixed in the air, turning into waves of sound that rushed out of the flying snow on Trial Island, spreading to the neighboring Women's Island, passing over the national defenders on the watchtower in front of Nine Snake City, as well as the female residents in the city.

"Is it the end of the month again?"

"It was a really intense fight today."

"The Trial Island won't be destroyed by them, right?"

"How is that possible! That's too exaggerated - er, I hope the island is okay."

"Look at the sky above Trial Island. It's almost broken..."

The sound of the aftermath of the battle and the noisy discussions in the city drifted into the magnificent bathroom of the palace and became almost inaudible.

However, in the ears of Tulip, Hancock and Robin, masters of Observation Haki, the sound becomes as light as a pin drop, and can be heard clearly as long as one listens carefully.

"It looks like the final assessment has begun." Tulip soaked in the pool, poured herself a glass of wine, and said with emotion, "In the blink of an eye, Luffy and his friends' training for this year is about to end."

Sanda and Mari were splashing and playing in the pool, and laughed when they heard this: "Luffy has become much stronger! We can no longer defeat him at all."

"That's because you are useless." Hancock scolded.

Sanda and Mary looked at each other and stuck out their tongues helplessly. Whether it was the elder sister or the son of Tulip, their personality, talent, and understanding were far superior to theirs, and it was inevitable that they were stronger than them.

Robin was behind Hancock, holding her waist-length black hair and gently rubbing and washing it. He asked, "Hancock, if you can't bear to leave, you can also come with us."

"Who can't bear to leave you?" Hancock rolled her eyes with her back to Robin, paused, and confirmed, "It will only be one or two years at most, right?"

Robin laughed, "That's what he said."

Tulip drank silently. Although Dorag didn't say it directly, his urgent attitude of chasing time undoubtedly revealed that... there seemed to be not much time left in this world.

"I've waited ten years, so one or two years won't make a difference."

Hancock touched Robin's hand and kissed the back of it gently. "Besides, aren't you trying to find out some historical truth?"

“…”

Robin held Hancock's hand in return, and after a while said, "Ten years is Lynch. I only made you wait for more than eight years..."

Crash!

Hancock poured water on her and said angrily, "How dare you say that!"

"Hahaha……"

Tulip raised her glass and laughed. The palace bath was shrouded in mist, as if in a fairy palace.

…

"Sunny's coating is almost finished~"

"Okay, I understand."

Robin closed the golden badge and hung up the "phone" with Mary with a smile.

About a month ago, Rayleigh returned to the Sabaody Archipelago. He wanted to complete the coating of the Sunny that remained there before everyone finished their training.

The little ship elf was curious about the thing of coating the ship, so he followed along.

Robin looked at the sky. The final assessment had lasted from yesterday until now and should be almost over, so he packed up and called Hancock and the others to go to the trial island next door.

When they arrived, they saw the snowy ground was torn into pieces...

Nami fell down under the charred dead tree and passed out;

Usopp was hanging on the tree, the weapon in his hand seemed to be twisted into a dough, and the shape memory alloy was slowly recovering. Franky was also recovering. He used the Swallow Swallow Fruit to change his entire body. His back was no longer a weak point, but his flesh and blood were indistinguishable from the shape memory alloy. At the moment, his body was in a strange shape, but it was also slowly recovering. Cavendish's sword was broken, and he was lying in the snow covered in blood. Annie and Amorine were also unconscious.

Xiangyun no longer had the strength to stand up. The mythical beast Otama seemed to have recovered a lot, but she didn't plan to continue. Sanji, who had fainted on the ground, had a ball of gold wrapped around his feet, connected to Linqi's feet.

Zoro stood in front of Lynch, with three knives inserted into Lynch's chest and abdomen, not seeking to hurt Lynch, but only to temporarily suppress him. However, at this moment, even Zoro's face was covered with half-coagulated blood, and he only relied on his last bit of willpower to not fall down;

Chopper was lying on the ground, pulling Lynch's arm, gasping for breath and telling Zoro and the others not to move, as he would treat their injuries later; and Luffy... Luffy looked exhausted, his domineering aura had been completely used up, and a giant blue-black pillar that was more than ten meters tall and as thick as a bowl was pressing on his body. He was sticking out his tongue and unable to move.

And Lynch, lying on the ground!

Sanji had desperately bound his feet with gold, and his body was pinned down by Zoro's three swords.

A smile appeared on Luffy's tired face, and he said, "We won, Lynch."

"Very good……"

Brooke breathed a sigh of relief, and Marianne beside her also smiled, but her eyelids fluttered and she fell down softly - she was supported in time by the flower clone with surging petals.

Robin took a look and found that Marian was just too tired and fell asleep.

Lynch took away Zoro's three knives, and Zoro's body tilted and fell down, and Lynch who sat up supported him.

Lynch turned his head and said, "Brook, your ability is pretty good. If it were someone else, maybe it would really be possible - huh?"

The Afro skull was motionless, and there seemed to be no soul flame in its dark eyes.

A soul as black as ink flew out from above Lynch's head, circled around, and caught a pale green ghost.

“Yohoho!” Brooke said as if he had just woken up from a dream, as if he had survived a disaster, “It was so scary, I almost died again! Mr. Lynch’s soul and will are so terrifying! Yoho, yohoho…”

Lynch patted Brook's shoulder, nodded to Tulip, Hancock, Robin and others, then looked around, walked to Luffy who was pinned down by the iron pillar, squatted down, flicked the boy's forehead with his fingers, and said with a smile: "Not bad, you passed."

Humph... Zoro hung on Lynch, smiled slightly, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Lin Qi stretched out his hand, and the 13,500-jin "Dinghai Shenzhen" immediately shrank and turned into a normal blue-black gold iron rod that flew into his hand.

Luffy grinned, jumped up and shouted: "Have a banquet!!!"

The Straw Hat Boy's shouting echoed in the heavy snow. Usopp hanging on the tree, Nami waking up quietly under the dead tree, Franky whose form had returned to normal... everyone smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.

After a whole year of hellish training, it's officially over!
