RBTC: Chapter 86

---

The group walked down the street, unconcerned, eager to see the legendary Snow Woman. They walked for a long time, but the Snow Woman never appeared. Instead, they found themselves near the coast and heard the sound of fighting.

Exchanging glances, they headed towards the coast. They wanted to see what was happening.

At the coast, there were many people standing on dilapidated pirate ships. Most of them were burly men. They weren't young. The youngest was in their thirties or forties. The older ones already had white hair. The rest of the people were unremarkable. From their appearance and clothing, they looked like the islanders, except their eyes were vacant, as if they were out of focus. They looked like wooden puppets.

Most of the people on these ships were nervously watching the two figures in the sky.

There were two figures in the sky, one black and one white, clashing fiercely. The black figure was a burly man. The white figure was an elderly woman wearing white clothes and with white hair.

After colliding, their strength was evenly matched. They temporarily stopped attacking. Gote looked at the woman and said fiercely, "Snow Woman, are you really going to fight to the death? We didn't have to do this. Don't you want to go out? Why are you stopping me?"

The Snow Woman looked at Gote. Her eyes, filled with frost, were also filled with anger. She said, "Release the innocent people on your ship and promise not to hurt these islanders anymore. I won't bother you."

The Snow Woman's voice carried a hint of helplessness as she said these words. Perhaps this was the last thing she would do for the people on this island.

"You know I can't agree to your terms. Why are you even saying this? These islanders have no connection to you. You could even say they have a bad relationship. What are you trying to achieve?"

As he said these words, Gote's eyes became even colder, and his body began to stir.

Seeing Gote's reaction, the Snow Woman knew his answer. She also knew that this conversation was meaningless, but she still held a glimmer of hope.

Knowing that the other party wouldn't agree to her terms, the Snow Woman's face showed determination. She had made up her mind. After all, she had promised that man to protect the islanders.

At the same time, the Snow Woman thought back to her past experiences and the man who had made a promise to her.

The Snow Woman wasn't a native of this island. Forty years ago, she was being pursued by the Marines. She fled into the fog in a panic. She was seriously injured and unconscious. She was rescued by a man and brought to this island.

The man's name was Simon. He was a kind and righteous person. After rescuing the Snow Woman, he took care of her. The two developed feelings for each other after interacting.

But Simon wasn't content with an ordinary life. He wasn't content with being trapped on this island forever. After the Snow Woman's injuries had healed, he continued on his journey. He was going to find a way out.

The Snow Woman was originally going to go with him, but because her injuries had just healed, Simon refused and hoped that the Snow Woman would take care of the islanders as much as she could when he wasn't there. Simon also promised her that he would definitely find a way out and would bring the Snow Woman out once he found a way in and out. He would also return safely.

But things often don't go as planned. Simon didn't come back. A few years later, the islanders encountered his ship at sea and brought it back. The ship, it was unclear what kind of danger it had experienced, was in a mess. It was broken and dilapidated everywhere, clearly the result of a huge disaster.

The Snow Woman saw the ship. She also knew Simon's fate.

Although Simon died and didn't keep his promise, the Snow Woman had always kept her promise to him. Over the years on this island, she had silently protected the islanders, ensuring that they weren't harmed by the pirates who mistakenly entered the island. She also made those pirates wary.

The Snow Woman hadn't thought about leaving. She was tired of the life of fighting and killing. She had been wanted by the Marines for various reasons. To avoid living that kind of life again, she had stayed on the island. She hadn't looked for a way out. Even when someone told her that he had found a way out and that she could leave as long as she paid a certain price, she didn't hesitate. She refused without hesitation.

Her feud with Gote started 20 years ago after Gote landed on the island.

Gote came to the island, ended the chaos, eliminated the more brutal pirates, and organized a well-ordered system. He also established his actual rule.

But as time passed, darkness also grew on the island. The pirates on the island who remained neutral and lived in seclusion were disappearing for no reason over time. And the islanders who had once been grateful to the Snow Woman had forgotten her. Gradually, stories about the Snow Woman eating people spread among these residents.

All these changes made the Snow Woman suspicious. This phenomenon was abnormal. After investigating, she discovered Gote's abnormalities. For various reasons, they turned against each other and fought countless times.

When she was in her thirties or forties, the Snow Woman had the upper hand. But this was also because she was a dozen years older than the other party. But the Snow Woman couldn't defeat Gote.

The Snow Woman was a lone wolf. But Gote wasn't. With his subordinates and himself, the Snow Woman couldn't defeat Gote. So, they had been fighting for decades.

As time passed, she got older and older, and her strength weakened day by day. In the past few years, she had not been Gote's opponent. If it weren't for her life-saving skills, she might have already died at Gote's hands.

Therefore, Gote acted more and more recklessly. In the past few years, he had sacrificed many innocent lives to achieve his goals. If it weren't for some reservations, the residents of this island would have all fallen victim to his evil clutches.

Seeing this situation, the Snow Woman knew she had to act. She couldn't delay any longer. Otherwise, the islanders might all be sacrificed at sea to achieve Gote's goals. She came here today with a firm resolve to put an end to this.

Just as the Snow Woman was reminiscing about these past events, Gote also noticed her unusual behavior. When the Snow Woman was lost in thought, he launched an attack.

The Snow Woman quickly reacted. Her body instantly transformed into countless snowflakes. Then, more snowflakes split off in the air and quickly scattered. They quickly gathered again, finally forming a huge snowstorm like a tornado, rapidly attacking Gote.

Gote saw this move and his face instantly turned serious. He covered his entire body in Armament Haki. Then, a pair of large scissors appeared in his hand. After the large scissors appeared, he used them to cut through the void. It was as if he was cutting something in the void.

The Snow Woman, who had transformed into a snowstorm, paused her attack for a moment after Gote cut with his scissors. But she didn't stop for long. The attack continued towards Gote.
