Pure Gold Scramble

Infinitely bright space, like there is a sun buried underneath.

Here, exactly where the lantern fish's lantern is located.

Looking at the golden liquid flowing below, Urouge couldn't help but sigh, "Such a sea of pure gold should be unthinkable to everyone!"

"The more precious something is, the rarer it is, that's the usual thinking of most people." Eneru laughed, "It's only natural that a treasure like pure gold should also be pitifully rare."

"Legends of pure gold have been circulating for a long time, but most of them end with uncertainty and bad luck, and the reason lies in this giant lantern fish's insane thirst for pure gold."

Wyper continued, "All those who developed pure gold were swallowed together with the island they lived on. The pure gold that had accumulated over the countless years was transported within its lantern after dissolution."

"It's just a pity that so much pure gold will end up being destroyed in our hands." Urouge sighed.

"It can't be helped, this guy's lantern is too big and the accumulated pure gold is too much, even Original Sin-sama's space can't receive one percent of the pure gold here."

Lightning flashed in Eneru's hands, "Instead of letting others get this pure gold, let's destroy this place completely."

"Do not rush to do it first, destroying these pure gold can be all three stomachs are dark, for those ordinary pirates, the light is still very necessary." Wyper reminded.

"Of course I know, just warm up in advance." The purple and black thunder ball in Eneru's hand became more solid and concentrated, "to destroy such a large piece of space, you can not do the usual moves."

...

Sometime later, Doflamingo and the others finally arrived first at Alchemi Island in the third stomach.

When they entered the laboratory, fist-sized pieces of pure gold glittered in cylindrical vessels.

"This is pure gold?" Diamante's breath couldn't help but rush a little.

"What a wonderful color, intoxicating." Doflamingo was also amazed by it and said in his heart, "Pure gold, can it really replace the missing link of Ope Ope no Mi?"

Seeing the greedy look on Doflamingo's face, Trebol proposed in a low voice, "Dover, how about, we get some of our own private stash?"

Doflamingo has some intention, but after some struggle, he still shook his head and said, "You have seen Apophis's schemes, such a frightening mind, it is impossible not to consider the possibility of taking things private from me."

"So we hand over a portion to the Marine in exchange for asylum?" Diamante also asked tentatively.

"Asylum?" Doflamingo snickered, "With Apophis' fruit ability working in tandem, no one in this world can escape his assassination!"

"Well, don't even say it." Doflamingo took out the pure gold, cut off a fingernail-sized amount of pure gold, dropped the rest into the box prepared initially, and then put the tiny bit of pure gold back in again.

"Let's go ahead with the original plan and let it draw fire for us."

...

Half an hour later, in the stomach of number one.

The lantern fish has ample stomach space, so large that each stomach can hold dozens of islands.

But no matter how ample space is, it can't withstand the torment of six top-level combatants.

Even if Longinus and the others have been cautious, the energy waves that escaped still let the giant lantern fish vomit several times.

Vomiting is indeed a way to get out from inside the body of the giant lantern fish.

Only, they, the evil guests, do not want to leave yet.

"Get him, the pure gold is on him."

"Don't run, hand over the pure gold!"

Hearing the sound of killing and arguing from afar, the six people who were still in the midst of a fierce battle could not help but look in the direction from which the sound came.

"Pure gold, and they really found it?" Akainu whispered, and his eyes began to grow dangerous.

"You can't stop me; they've come to my door of their own accord!" Apophis' voice also became somewhat solemn.

"Jihahahaha! Well done, quickly bring the pure gold to the old man!" Shiki laughed as the man being chased was one of those pirates who had joined his banner earlier.

"Damn, why was it discovered?" The pirate who was running wildly with all his might cursed in a low voice, he didn't want to hand over the pure gold, but now in this situation, if he didn't divert the fire, even those few big guys might join the scramble.

Once you think of the means of these six people, the pirates who found pure gold can no longer suppress the fear inside, ruthlessly clenched his teeth and threw the cylindrical vessel held in his arms to death, "Boss Shiki, the rest depends on you!"

"Pure gold, finally belongs to the old man!"

"Only if you can keep it!"

Shiki, who had just grabbed the pure gold into his hands, was blown away by a strong punch from Longinus.

The cylindrical vessel spun in the air and was grabbed by Kaido before Akainu's magma fist slammed into his back.

But Kaido's physique is ultimately not comparable to Shiki; even, in this case, it is still firmly in the vessel's hands.

"Worororo! This level of attack ..." Kaido is laughing wildly, the next moment suddenly changed his face, because five emitting powerful aura waves of slashing impact is actually at the same time flying towards him.

"I @#%&" Kaido was so angry that his mouth was full of vulgar words; it could not wholly ignore even him under such a powerful attack.

The cylindrical vessel was thrown away by him at the last moment, while Kaido was overwhelmed by the splendid and radiant attack.

This time, it was Issho who controlled floating pieces of clay to catch the vessel.

"Thanks a lot for keeping it for me." Apophis appeared across space in front of Issho and slashed out with a furious slash.

"Apophis-san, this is not kept for you." Issho backhanded his staff blade horizontally in front of him, clashing the swords and exploding out an incomparably powerful wave of air.

The ground beneath their feet cracked like a spider web, and the cylindrical vessels were swept away by the powerful wave of air.

Then, four figures rushed towards pure gold nearly simultaneously.

"All get out of my way, I want to reopen the era that really belongs to the pirates!" Shiki rage swept up both the island and the acid, like a god from heaven.

"Don't joke, Shiki, your time has long passed!" Longinus bellowed, and the raging Haoshoku Haki aura made the surrounding space ripple.

"You bastards, are you planning to rob something from me?" Kaido directly transformed into a giant dragon, and the top-level Haoshoku filled this space.

"Disgusting scum, all of you go to the garbage heap!" Sakazuki's entire body turned into magma, advancing extremely fast under the volcanic eruption's powerful propulsion.

Four incomparably powerful figures just collided together, and the next moment, almost a heavenly explosion of power in this space completely erupted.

The terrible shock wave radiated in all directions, instantly destroying the surrounding islands, and even the acid was vaporized and dissipated in an instant.

The pirates who were a little closer couldn't even make any resistance, as if he was formatted and wholly erased from the molecular level by the shock wave.

Even the light that fills this space seems to be distorted by a powerful force and begins to become bright and uncertain.

Then, in the eyes of everyone's regret and awe, the cylindrical vessel crumbled and shattered together with the pure gold.
