Marcus Mars's bold conjecture not only felt absurd to himself, but it also startled the other Five Elders and members of the God's Knights.
Shimotsuki Ryuma?
The Great Swordsman of Wano Country from hundreds of years ago?
How could he have lived until now?
They possessed lifespans surpassing ordinary people because they relied on Lord Imu's power.
What did Shimotsuki Ryuma rely on?
Doubts aside, the Five Elders and the others all knew Shimotsuki Ryuma's appearance.
As the World's Strongest Swordsman in history, they had paid attention to him more or less.
Moreover, among them, there were figures from the same era as Shimotsuki Ryuma.
The God's Knights and the Five Elders couldn't help but glance at Topman Warcury.
This old fellow was the longest-living besides Lord Imu.
He should have experienced the era when Shimotsuki Ryuma made his name across the sea.
Topman Warcury's gaze was heavy as he stared dead at the green-haired man.
Shimotsuki Ryuma also looked at him at this moment and said indifferently, "So you are still alive, Topman Warcury."
Topman Warcury's newly resurrected body trembled, his mustache twitching as a surprised voice came out:
"Shimotsuki Ryuma? How could you have lived until now?!"
It didn't look like acting.
The exact same tone and voice.
The same astonishingly powerful sword intent contained within.
The green-haired man really was Shimotsuki Ryuma from hundreds of years ago.
Judging by his appearance, he was even much younger than Warcury himself.
Imu's scarlet multi-ringed eyes also contracted slightly, gazing at Shimotsuki Ryuma, full of contemplation.
He didn't believe there was another immortal in the world like Himself.
Shimotsuki Ryuma's current aura and cracked body also indicated that his state of life was abnormal.
Could it be related to Luo Chen?
Imu narrowed His eyes, sizing up Luo Chen thoughtfully.
...
Facing Topman Warcury's question, Shimotsuki Ryuma responded with indifference, slowly drawing the black blade Shusui from his waist, ready for a great battle.
He was summoned by Luo Chen.
Naturally, he would not easily reveal the truth.
In the distance, on the back of the wood dragon.
Aokiji, Garp, and Robin widened their eyes in astonishment.
They heard the shocking words of the Five Elders.
The green-haired man was the Dragon Slaying Samurai, Shimotsuki Ryuma, who was famous throughout the world hundreds of years ago?!
Robin's emotions were violently shaken.
It wasn't the first time she had heard this name.
Besides history books, she had heard it from Luo Chen's mouth not long ago.
After going to the Shichibukai Gecko Moria's Thriller Bark.
Luo Chen said he found a powerful corpse.
When alive, the corpse was Shimotsuki Ryuma.
An unbelievable guess surfaced in Robin's mind.
She stared at the spatial vortex behind Luo Chen, where other people were walking out!
The first thing to emerge from the spatial vortex was a massive, ferocious head with crimson skin.
A pair of giant horns grew from the head, tusks were exposed, and golden hair draped down.
The head alone was nearly ten meters large.
When his entire massive body appeared, it stood beside Luo Chen like a mountain peak.
"Roar—!"
After Oars appeared, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, and the sun above his head, he let out an excited roar.
He couldn't speak and could only use roaring to express his inner emotions.
Five hundred years ago, he died in the ice and snow.
He never thought he would have the chance to be resurrected and see the warm sunlight again.
Topman Warcury's face changed drastically.
Another dead person from hundreds of years ago.
Demon Oars.
Even though the Giant Race had long lifespans, about three times that of ordinary humans...
It was absolutely impossible for Oars to live for over five hundred years.
Moreover, he clearly remembered that Demon Oars froze to death while attacking the Land of Ice.
"There really are quite a few acquaintances."
After Oars, another person walked out of the spatial vortex.
A noble young man with long pale purple hair and a rapier at his waist.
He greeted Saturn, who was possessed by Imu, and sneered, "In God Valley, it was you who killed Rocks, right?"
Saturn seemed to regain his autonomous consciousness at this moment, his tone revealing surprise and suspicion: "You are Rocks' crew member, Captain John?"
Garling of the God's Knights frowned tightly.
He still remembered this person.
He had followed Rocks and landed in God Valley back then.
Garling transmitted in his heart, full of shock and confusion: "What is going on? Dead people from many years ago have all been resurrected by Luo Chen?"
Shimotsuki Ryuma, Demon Oars, Captain John... all were confirmed dead figures.
Today, they were actually resurrected?!
This was absolutely the most inconceivable thing he had ever seen.
Even more astonishing than Lord Imu's immortality and demonic power.
The Five Elders stared tightly at Luo Chen and the people around him, their faces becoming heavier and heavier.
They thought of a strange matter.
Starting from the Sabaody Archipelago, every person Luo Chen killed had their corpse taken away.
The previous user of the Sky-Binding Fruit, CP0 Deputy Chief Baker.
The newly appointed user of the Sky-Binding Fruit who died today, CP0 Chief Paul Lucia.
The dead Marine Admiral Greenbull and Fleet Admiral Akainu.
All their corpses were taken by Luo Chen.
They hadn't understood why Luo Chen did this before.
But witnessing three people who had been dead for many years reappear in the world, the Five Elders finally guessed something.
At this time, a huge wood dragon circled around Luo Chen.
The dragon's back was full of figures with cracks all over their bodies.
Shimotsuki Ryuma, Demon Oars, Captain John, and many faces whose names couldn't be called out.
A rough look showed nearly three to four hundred people.
Inside the spatial vortex, figures were still walking out.
The Five Elders, the God's Knights, and Imu did not act.
They had to see who else Luo Chen could summon.
To see if their guess about Luo Chen snatching corpses was accurate.
When two figures in white suits walked out, a storm instantly surged in the hearts of the Five Elders and the others.
The tall man in the white suit was Baker, killed by Luo Chen in Sabaody.
The petite woman in the white suit was Paul Lucia, killed by Luo Chen not long ago.
Undoubtedly, they were resurrected by Luo Chen in some way!
Following closely behind was Crocodile, who was suspected dead.
And the similarly deceased Marine Admiral, Greenbull.
Fleet Admiral, Sakazuki.
When these dead people stood vividly before their eyes again, even Imu could not remain calm.
His sharp, elongated pitch-black head fluctuated violently like black smoke, powerful Haki emitted uncontrollably, and an evil aura filled the sea.
"Luo Chen, what are you?!"
Imu's questioning voice sounded somewhat hysterical.
He couldn't believe that a mortal possessed the power to resurrect the dead.
Moreover, many of them were figures who had died hundreds of years ago.
If Luo Chen obtained Joy Boy's corpse, could he also resurrect him?!
Thinking of this, an incredibly intense killing intent overflowed from Imu's scarlet eyes.
Luo Chen took in all of Imu's killing intent and the shock of the Five Elders and the God's Knights.
He said indifferently, "Cut the crap. After today, I want your World Government to exist in name only."
As his voice fell, the huge wood dragon carried the Impure World Reincarnation army into the sky, pouncing forward to kill.
