Chapter 136: The Best Viewing Seats and the Expected "Friends"
After confirming Garp's location!
Chen Ye and the white-bearded man exchanged a glance.
Then both of them wore the kind of sly smile that only a cat that has caught a mouse would have.
"Gurarararara..."
"Gurarararara... That old geezer Garp, he talks about retiring, but his body is all too honest."
The white-bearded man stopped laughing wildly, and his words were full of smacking sounds.
"It seems his apprentice is far more valuable than his old face."
"It's only human nature."
Then the white-bearded man glanced at the devastating scene in the center of the island, and then at the lone black dot on the distant iceberg.
His face was practically beaming with joy.
Let's go find a good spot.
Chen Ye spoke, his tone light and cheerful.
"This play is not to be missed."
The two of them walked out like that.
Neither hiding nor publicizing.
The old man and the young man strolled leisurely towards the higher parts of the island.
Half of the ground beneath our feet was charred volcanic rock.
The other half was covered with a thick layer of frost, and when you stepped on it, it made a cracking sound.
The two flavors mixed together are nauseating.
The air was cut by an invisible line.
On the left is a heat wave capable of melting steel.
On the right is a biting wind that freezes to the bone.
Anyone else would have given up in this godforsaken place.
Chenye and Baihuzi acted as if they were just strolling around town.
The lava swirled around their feet.
The cold air slid over their bodies.
The two trudged across the scorching hot earth and the slippery ice without even faltering in their steps.
The scenery was quite novel for them.
A few minutes later.
Soon, the two arrived at the top of a flattened mountain.
This is the perfect viewpoint.
Standing here, you can see the entire battlefield of Punk Hazard clearly.
What used to be a lake has now been completely transformed.
Now, the lake has been split in two.
Half of it is a sea of lava, with fiery red waves crashing against the sky.
The other half is a world of ice, with countless sharp, knife-like icebergs piercing the sky.
The place where ice and fire meet.
The two shadows collided, moving so fast that the eyes couldn't keep up.
"Meteor Volcano!"
A violent roar.
Sakazuki's right arm transformed into lava, and countless house-sized magma fists crashed down like meteorites.
Every move he makes is aimed at destroying everything.
ruthless.
absolutely.
The target is Kuzan below.
"The Ice Age!"
Kuzan's expression froze.
He pressed his hands to the ground.
Click.
Click.
Click.
He used the power of the Ice Age to its fullest extent.
The frozen object surged outwards from him in all directions at an unreasonable speed.
Earth, sky, lava, flames.
Everything was forcibly frozen by this cold air.
roar.
crush.
The magma fist collided with the frozen world.
With each collision between the two, Punk Hazard seemed to let out a mournful cry.
The mountain is turning into a volcano.
The ground turned into an ice surface.
The sky seemed to be about to be torn apart.
The energy shockwave transformed into a white ring of steam, sweeping away everything in its path.
"Gurarararar... What two remarkable little devils."
Whitebeard looked at the earth-shattering scene and crossed his arms.
One has to admire them.
"Even though he's just a watchdog for the World Government."
"But it must be admitted that they have truly mastered the art of sabotage."
He continued speaking to himself, his words revealing an acknowledgment of pure power.
"This level of battle is no less impressive than the battles between the powerful figures of our old era."
In his opinion, these two young naval kids were indeed quite strong.
This kind of power is worthy of respect across the entire ocean.
Chen Ye's gaze did not linger on the center of the battlefield for long.
This kind of scene, while exciting, is just so-so.
He had long since figured out the power of Sakazuki and Kuzan.
His gaze cut through the chaos and landed on a solitary peak further away.
There, a lone figure stood.
A shadow wearing a dog-head hat and a coat of justice.
He crossed his arms and remained motionless.
A person.
It looks a bit lonely.
It was none other than the naval hero, Monkey D. Garp.
His face was hidden in the shadow of his hat brim, so his expression was not visible.
But that body, as strong as steel, was taut.
On one side was Kuzan, his apprentice whom he had personally taught.
On the other side was Sakazuki, the Navy's top combatant whom he had watched grow up.
His two most outstanding successors are now fighting like beasts on this island for a cold, hard position as marshal.
Regardless of who wins.
For him, a veteran of the navy, it was a tragedy.
A playful smile appeared on Chen Ye's face.
He turned to the white-bearded man and said.
"Dad, the show's started, I'm going to say hello to my old friends."
He paused.
"And... collect some interest while you're at it."
He spoke the word "interest" softly and slowly.
You'll understand who the white-bearded man is as soon as you hear the name.
He repeated it, his gaze sweeping between Chen Ye and Garp in the distance.
The next second, he couldn't hold it in any longer.
"Guralalalalalalala!"
"Good lad! You really don't stand to be taken advantage of!"
The white-bearded man found a flat, massive rock, plopped down on it, and pulled out a huge wine jar from somewhere, slamming it down beside him with a "bang."
"Go."
He waved to Chen Ye, his face showing an expression that suggested he was enjoying the show.
"Have a good chat with that old bastard."
Chen Ye's smile remained unchanged.
His figure flickered in place, blurred, and then disappeared.
No sound.
It didn't even stir up a gust of wind.
At the same time, on the top of another iceberg.
Garp stared intently at the distant battlefield, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white, and the veins on the back of his hands were bulging.
Without the slightest warning, the space behind him swayed gently.
A figure appeared silently.
They landed less than ten meters behind him.
The person landed silently, as if blending into the surrounding icy and snowy environment.
Karp didn't notice.
His entire focus was on that fierce duel.
Until a voice sounded behind him.
His voice carried a hint of teasing, like an old friend greeting someone.
"Mr. Karp, it's so boring to watch the show alone here."
"You don't mind... having one more audience member?"
The sound wasn't loud.
But it exploded in Garp's ears.
Swish!
Garp's steel-like body tensed instantly.
A terrifying aura exploded from his body, causing countless cracks to appear in the ice beneath his feet.
He turned around inch by inch.
Those eyes no longer held their usual nonchalant attitude, nor the painful struggle they had just displayed.
Only the sharpness and vigilance of a blade are displayed.
His gaze was fixed on the young man who was smiling at him.
Time-Space King, Chen Ye!
What brings you here to see me, old man?
