Continuous explosions echoed on the giant ship, and the entire land was awakened by Tesoro's power.
It turned into a golden wave, swallowing up many people!
[Auntie #2: Tesoro is pretty strong, but at most he's only slightly stronger than Doflamingo. If it really came down to a fight, I could easily take him down!]
[Kaido #2: While becoming this big gives him an advantage in strength, his agility is greatly reduced! Furthermore, his defense can't withstand the Straw Hat Pirates' relentless attacks without taking damage! He might still lose!]
[Red Hair #2: They're both quite strong; it seems this battle will be a bit unpredictable!]
[Number 2 Beckman: Boss, you're being too conservative. You clearly think Luffy will win!]
[Whitebeard #2: Since entering the Grand Line, the Straw Hat Pirates have encountered formidable opponents!]
[Saturn #2: Tesoro is too hasty. If he wanted to attack the Straw Hat Pirates, he should have waited for our reinforcements to arrive before making his move! That would have been much safer. He's too confident in his abilities. We shouldn't let him get killed, or it'll be quite troublesome!]
Tesoro has many collaborations with the World Government, and during this battle, there were also Celestial Dragons on this ship!
The wealth he possessed was highly valued by the Five Elders; otherwise, Tesoro's strength wouldn't be sufficient to establish his own independent kingdom in the New World, surrounded by the Four Emperors. Without the World Government's assistance, Tesoro's power would be somewhat insufficient.
Although his strength is close to that of the Four Emperors, it is only close; he is more like a vice-emperor like King!
……
In video number 2, Luffy is sent flying by Tesoro's punch!
Karina, who had teamed up with Nami to steal things before, had a drastic change in expression when she met Karina on this island!
Tesoro is ridiculously strong! Even the Straw Hat Pirates, who is so strong, is no match for him!
She was somewhat desperate, after all, she had infiltrated Tesoro's team this time, and now it was tantamount to betraying them!
"Hahaha!! Karina, that expression of yours is really good!" Tesoro showed a look of ecstasy, watching the despair and terror on others' faces! He loved it!!
"Taste despair, then die! Regret your betrayal!" Tesoro raised his golden right foot, which grew even larger and brighter, and stomped down on Karina!
Karina was so terrified she couldn't move! She was going to die!!
Fortunately, Nami rushed over at that moment and pushed Karina away, thus avoiding Tesoro's attack!
But she herself was unfortunately caught in Tesoro's golden hand!
Then the Golden Emperor looked triumphantly in the direction where Straw Hat Luffy had been sent flying backwards.
"You're all trash who lost to me in this game. I'm free to do whatever I want with you. Do you think you can defeat me by inciting those losers to riot? Wishful thinking!! If you don't come out soon, I'm going to strangle her!"
At this moment, many of the rioters who had lost money here and become slaves to Tesoro's money were present.
It has gradually been taken back by the country's armed forces!
Many women who managed to escape by plane were caught in the prison network, arrested, and lost their freedom once again!
He had forgotten that the woman he once loved most was also captured in the same way, waiting to be sold!
The Golden Emperor isn't in a hurry to kill Nami!
We need to use her to keep Straw Hat Boy occupied and create an opportunity for a fatal blow!
After waiting for a few seconds and still not appearing, Tesoro instantly lost his patience!
Suddenly, he hurled Nami at Karina; at that speed, a collision would instantly turn them into mincemeat!
Luffy finally burst out of the ruins, his arms wrapped around the two men, catching them and then throwing them to Robin after dissipating the force.
It was only because it was caught in the net formed by Robin's many intertwined arms that it was spared from being turned into mincemeat!
But at that moment, Luffy exposed his back to Tesoro in order to save the two of them!
Tesoro grinned maliciously, and a giant golden fist slammed into Luffy, knocking him to the ground!
But Luffy wasn't killed by the impact; instead, he transformed into Gear Fourth Boundman!
A terrifying power surged from Luffy's body, directly shattering the Golden Emperor's giant fist!
"You are my possession, now, laugh!! I command you to laugh!! Straw Hat Boy!!" Tesoro roared, clearly displeased with Luffy's angry expression!
"You're exactly the kind of person I hate the most!!! I won't lose to someone like you!!!" Luffy glared angrily at Tesoro!
That look in his eyes! It made Tesoro momentarily lose his composure, reminding him of his former self!
A young version of myself, powerless and furious, whose love was taken away by the Celestial Dragons!
Boom!!! Luffy's King Kong Gun blasted into Tesoro, and the entire golden giant shattered instantly!
"Run! The De Solo is doomed!! What do you want money for?!" Many of the thugs and strongmen hired by Tesoro shouted.
Seeing that Tesoro was in dire straits, and that the ships were crumbling due to the intense battle, they all turned tail and fled!
Relationships built on money will always have limited loyalty!
"My possessions, where do you think you're going? Everything you have is under my control!!" Many golden whips extended from Tesoro's back, instantly spreading outwards, followed by a deafening roar!
A golden wave surged forth from these whips, higher and more magnificent than before!
Countless people couldn't escape at this moment; their lower bodies were submerged by the golden wave, and they were completely unable to move!
Besides using Gear Fourth, Luffy is jumping in the air!
Countless gold pieces were used to build a golden mountain, and Tesoro stood at its summit!
Countless golden branches cascade down from the golden mountain, crisscrossing and creating an indescribable beauty!
His eyes were filled with madness as he roared at everyone below, "Look at this golden beauty! I will drown everything in it until it is swallowed up! I will make people happy, they will rejoice because of me, be imprisoned by me, suffer because of me, fall apart, and wail in despair!"
"Tesoro!!" Luffy glared angrily at Tesoro!
"Very well, be angry, Straw Hat Boy!! Everything important that you want to protect will be swallowed up by my power. That's how this world is, everything is dominated by gold!"
"If you've got the guts, come and try to dominate me!!" Luffy's rage had reached the heavens, and he was spewing out sonic booms as he charged towards Tesoro like lightning!
"Gold!!! Divine Punishment!!" Countless golden fragments behind Tesoro coalesced into a sharp, cone-shaped golden hammer, which slammed down on Luffy, who was rapidly approaching from below!
"Gum-Gum Lion Rocket!!" Luffy tucked his fists into his arms, then unleashed a powerful punch to meet the Golden Punishment head-on!
But it couldn't withstand it and was crushed down by the giant cone-shaped hammer!
Upon seeing this, Tesoro was overjoyed and went mad: "How is it!! I have become a god!"
"What god?! You're just a monster!!" Luffy, who had been pinned to the ground, suddenly unleashed terrifying power, shattering the golden hammer and breaking through all golden barriers!
The terrifyingly powerful Twin Fist Lion Rocket Launcher finally landed on Tesoro!
Overconfident and complacent, Tesoro had no time to defend or resist!
Thump!!! He took that punch squarely and instantly lost consciousness!!
In an instant, all the gold exploded and scattered, creating countless golden specks, like a celestial maiden scattering flowers!
Bathed in golden light, the straw-hatted boy appeared like a true god descending to earth!
……
[Golden Emperor #2: Impossible!! How could I possibly lose to Straw Hat Boy?! Impossible!!]
[Golden Emperor #1: You still say you're not crazy? I knew it when I saw the split screen! You've seen the Straw Hat Boy video in Sabaody Archipelago, you should know what kind of people he hates most!]
[Second Golden Emperor: A Celestial Dragon?]
[Golden Emperor #1: That's right, don't you think the person in the video is a living Celestial Dragon? Have you forgotten how Stella was enslaved? You're not only trafficking people and engaging in the slave trade yourself, but you're also oppressing those who were once at the bottom of the world like you! What is this if not madness?!]
[Golden Emperor #2: No!! I'm not a Celestial Dragon, I... I did this simply because this is the real world!!]
[Golden Emperor #1: Nonsense!! Only Celestial Dragons would be so domineering as to strictly forbid their slaves from crying and laughing. You don't think I'm unaware of these things just because I wasn't a slave in the Holy Land?! You... aren't some god! You're just a lunatic imitating a Celestial Dragon!!]
[Golden Emperor No. 2: No, no... I'm not!!]
At that moment, Tezzolo on the De Solo was so shocked by the impactful barrage of bullets that he was forced to retreat several steps!
[Golden Emperor #1: You can fool everyone, but you can't fool yourself!! If Stella from your side were still alive, do you know what she would say? She would say, "Why have you become exactly like those who tormented me! You... will torment me too?!"]
[Golden Emperor #2: Aaaaaaah!!!!!!!!!]
These words pierced Huang Jin's brain and heart like a knife, stirring wildly within his conscience!
My entire head and soul felt like they were about to explode at that moment!
The power of these words is more terrifying than divine punishment!
The thought of Stella saying that drove Tesoro to the brink of madness. He clutched his head, his voice filled with terror, unease, guilt, and regret. 007's roar echoed throughout the entire giant ship!
For Tezzolo, this possibility was more terrifying than death!
Could it be that I... have really become the kind of person I used to hate the most?!
"Stella... I'm sorry... I'm a coward!! I don't have the courage to face reality!! I'm not a monster!! Not a monster!!"
"Lord Tesoro!! Are you alright?!" Baccarat and her subordinates looked at Lord Tesoro, who had suddenly gone mad, with great concern!
"Bakala!! Was I wrong?!"
"I...I don't know, but I think we should have a better way to govern our kingdom!"
"So that means I was wrong! Hahaha!!! I was wrong!! I was wrong!!" Tesoro went mad, a silent tear of regret streaming down his face! He ran out...
His other self from another world allowed him to rediscover himself, but also caused him to lose his current personality!
[Captain A of Pirate Ship #2 is at the Entertainment Empire, and Tesoro has gone mad!! He just ran wildly through the streets, telling everyone he met that he was wrong!]
[Rocks #1 & #2: Holy crap!! Tesoro from another world is really something else, he drove himself crazy!]
