Pirate: If you are immortal, I will first fill up the overlord color

The whole body was shrouded in a dark robe, only a pair of eyes were exposed, and the pupils were blood-colored, with circles of lines wrapped around them.

There was a mysterious aura all over his body, and he stared at Xia Ming who was climbing the steps.

Forty years of empire.

The Holy Capital of Ameen was bustling with people, and the lively sounds of fireworks were heard everywhere.

Everyone is feeling excited about the new king's ascension to the throne, especially this new king, who is the biological son of the founding emperor Xia Le.

As the biological son of the founding emperor Xia Le, he did not rely on any power from his father. Instead, he reached this point step by step alone.

If we talk about his life, it can also be said that it has ups and downs.

When Xia Ming was at his lowest point, he worked in the naval cooking class and was responsible for the meals of the soldiers. And his colleagues don't even know his identity.

To this day, he has reached the top step by step.

This step, just like his life, was passed step by step.

Countless people were watching this scene, and they felt equally inexplicable in their hearts.

Kuzan, the second great emperor, stood silently in a corner with his arms folded. Looking at Xia Ming, who was now at his peak, and who looked like Xia Le on the outside, he felt complicated for a moment.

Kebi, the third emperor was also present, his eyes full of encouragement.

As the son of the founding emperor, Xia Ming's efforts could even be said to be no less than his.

Coupled with his excellent talent, it is not surprising that he has reached this point.

The wind is blowing gently, and the blue sky symbolizes today's auspiciousness.

Xia Ming walked to the highest point step by step until he stood there and took the crown and golden scepter from the opponent's hands.

"when!"

The golden bell of the Holy City rang, and the melodious bell slowly spread, echoing in everyone's ears.

Everyone's expressions changed. They were excited, excited, nervous, and their eyes were all focused on the figure at the top.

Xia Ming took a deep breath, put the crown on his head, and then slowly raised the golden scepter.

At this moment, he was in a trance.

In such an environment, it is impossible to remain calm and awake. After going through all kinds of hardships, he finally achieved his dream, which even felt a little unreal.

"I finally did it!"

"Father, you see, I have achieved the same achievements as you!"

"Without relying on your strength, only relying on my own efforts, I became the king of this country!"

"I will also manage, understand, and carefully observe the people in this world just like you!"

Xia Ming's heart was racing, and his whole body was trembling slightly.

He had been looking forward to this moment for so long and had worked so hard for it.

When the goal is achieved, I even want to cry.

This kind of emotional fluctuation made his senses numb and dull.

Everyone was immersed in the lively atmosphere of the new king's enthronement and could not escape. They raised their right hands high and made their most excited sounds.

Xia Ming's voice is undoubtedly very high, and his support rate is quite large.

This young man who resembles the founding emperor will remind countless people of the invincible emperor as long as he stands there.

However, since abdicating the throne, the other party has disappeared in this world.

At this moment of universal celebration, a dark shadow suddenly flashed in a corner under the stage.

The shadow quickly twisted at a strange angle and turned into a sharp hook. In an instant, it flashed black and red and stabbed towards Xia Ming, who was immersed in the perception of life on the steps.

No one noticed this scene, no one made a sound to remind.

In just an instant, the sharp hook became more powerful and faster. It reached the front of Xia Ming, refracted suddenly, and stabbed towards his neck.

"ah!!"

Screams were heard, and someone finally discovered this strange and sudden sneak attack.

Xia Ming raised his head, his pupils contracted.

What caught the eye was a dazzling black and red, as sharp as the tip of a knife, bursting out with an icy coldness.

"Danger!!"

Kirby yelled.

Kuzan changed color and was about to rush up the steps.

But undoubtedly, facing this fatal and swift blow, Xia Ming had no time to dodge. And this blow is aimed at the most vulnerable part of the human body, the neck.

Tragedy is about to happen!

Suddenly.

"Buzz!"

The violent and domineering aura suddenly radiated out, and in just a moment, it enveloped the entire Holy City of Ameen, and this aura was still moving farther away.

Everything came to a standstill.

Everyone's eyes widened, feeling shocked by this vast and majestic aura.

Lightning flashed and landed in front of Xia Ming.

Then, a figure stepped out of the thunder and lightning, and suddenly punched the black-red hook in front of him.

"boom!"

A heavy collision sound was heard, and the black and red hooks were shot away and soared into the sky.

Xia Ming finally reacted, and a sharp light burst out from his eyes. He looked down and instantly locked onto the figure shrouded in black robes.

Of course, the people around him all reacted and retreated to both sides.

A large number of imperial troops surrounded the place in an instant, and the strong men gathered all locked onto the mysterious figure.

At the same time, their eyes were also looking at the body blocking Xia Ming's front on the high platform.

I saw the other person, his whole body shrouded in thunder and lightning, his face majestic, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

"That is?!"

When they saw it clearly, someone screamed.

"The Founding Emperor!!"

"It's Emperor Xia Le!"

"He's still alive!"

"Of course he is still alive. If calculated by age, the emperor is already eighty or ninety years old this year, but what is unimaginable is that he is so young!"

"······"

The scene began to boil.

The appearance of the founding emperor shocked everyone.

Especially when the other party stood there, together with Xia Ming, the father and son looked extremely similar.

"This is what it looks like!"

"Isn't he still at the peak of his combat power?"

Someone said in shock.

With his burly body, strong and full muscles, and Xia Le's face, one would never think that he was an old man in his eighties or nineties.

"Could it be that the legend is true?"

The empire has been around for forty years, and the legends about Xia Le have almost dissipated. Most of them are just rumors about itself, making it impossible to tell the truth from the false.

"You finally showed up!"

Xia Le spoke condescendingly.

"There should be a resolution between you and me."

The figure wrapped in a black robe said in a deep voice.

With only his eyes exposed, he couldn't help but show a hint of shock when he saw the other person's young face.

After so many years, the other party still looks like this, without any change.

"It's time for an end!"

"I've been waiting for you for too long!"

Xia Le nodded and sighed softly.

"Father, who is he?"

Xia Ming asked.

"Remnants of the old days."

"The man behind the world government."

"His name is Im."

Having said this, Xia Le looked down.

"It seems that your full name should be Nailona Im?"

Im was noncommittal and simply said: "It's just a name, it's no longer important to me!"

Xia Le laughed.

"Find a place!"

"This battle will decide who the world belongs to!"

Im said calmly.

Xia Le narrowed his eyes slightly, then nodded slightly.

"I think so too!"

In the end, the battlefield was set on a desert island in the new world, not far from the Holy Capital of Amien.

There are only two people on the island.

Ao Pheasant, Kizaru, Crocodile, Fujitora, Barrett and other senior figures gathered around the island, quietly gazing at the situation on the island.

"In the final battle forty years ago, Im was the only one who didn't show up, but I didn't expect that he would show up today!"

"He is waiting for the moment when Xia Le is old and weak to strike."

"What a cunning, vicious guy!"

The people present were not simple characters, so they naturally saw through Im's plan at a glance.

"For more than forty years, Xia Le has never taken action again, given his strength."

Kizaru hesitated.

Xia Ming, who was next to him, turned his head with some worry in his eyes: "Uncle Porusalino, father, how strong is he!"

"Let me do this battle!"

As the emperor of this generation, Xia Ming is naturally the strongest of his generation.

"How strong?"

Crocodile laughed, a touch of emotion and excitement appeared in his eyes.

"He is invincible!"

After the words fell, Xia Ming was stunned, and the others laughed.

Yes, he is invincible!

This kind of invincibility is not claimed, but is determined by the times, without a doubt.

Immediately afterwards, everyone felt that the sea breeze above their heads suddenly became stronger.

In just a dozen breaths, it turned into a strong wind and roared out.

"Stab it!"

Black and red lightning rose from the island ground and rushed high into the sky in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, two violent and powerful auras suddenly broke out, and then collided fiercely.

"boom!"

The island trembled, and two dazzling lights bloomed, radiating from the center of the island to the surroundings.

"Boom boom boom boom!"

After this, continuous bombardments were heard one after another.

The thunder-like sound made people dizzy, and the water on the sea became violently uneasy and fluctuated violently.

Xia Ming stared blankly at the two rapidly flashing and colliding figures on the island in front of him, and was deeply shocked.

Although my father looks young, he is not young anymore.

At this moment, uncles such as Kuzan and Porusalino, who were the same generation as his father, were standing next to him, already looking very old.

But a person of such an advanced age is able to burst out with such terrifying domineering power.

What shocked him even more was that the person named Im, if he was not wrong, seemed to be from the previous era.

Flames, thunder and lightning, and dust quickly billowed among the islands in front, erupting into a huge chaotic sound.

The war between Xia Le and Yim became intense.

Kizaru and others stood on the warship, quietly staring at the war ahead, their expressions serious and solemn.

I have to admit that Yi Mu is far more powerful than the Five Old Stars. In this world, perhaps only Xia Le can resist him.

This battle lasted for a long time.

The war between the two lasted for half a month.

When Xia Le was covered in blood, holding a head in his right hand, leaping high and landing in front of everyone, a burst of laughter broke out.

"It's completely over!"

Crocodile murmured.

Compared to the battle forty years ago, the battle between Xia Le and Im was just now called the final battle.

It is conceivable that if Im wins this war, with the terrifying power of the other side, no one in this era can stop the other side.

That's when world government will return.

Everyone returned to the Holy Capital of Ameen, and everything became peaceful again.

Xia Le sat on the chair under the maple tree, looking extremely calm.

Im was finally dealt with. Although there were many dangers during the battle, he resolved them all and chopped off the opponent's head.

It was quiet in the courtyard.

A long, long time.

"Alas~"

A long sigh came out, and Xia Le sat there with a look of sadness on his face.

Im's solution completely reassured him, and a stone finally fell to the ground. But it also meant that he had nothing to do from now on.

His heart became empty, and he didn't know what to do or think for a moment.

"What kind of world will I go to if I give up everything here?"

Xia Le thought.

He actually began to look forward to the system letting him choose again.

But time passed and ten years passed in the blink of an eye.

The subtitles that appeared when he assumed the position of marshal still have not appeared again.

Xia Le's heart was already very old and even more numb.

So much has happened in these ten years.

The older generation has all left. His contemporaries Kizaru, Aoki, and Barrett also passed away one after another.

At a glance, Xia Le saw that his former relatives and friends had turned into cold stone monuments, with flowers placed in front of them.

His son has done a good job in his position as emperor, and the world is developing better and better.

In recent years, archeology has begun to take off, with adventurous teams traveling by ship to various parts of the world to explore treasures from the past.

He had heard that in the past few years, someone had arrived at the former Rafdru, which was the final island where Roger, the Pirate King, arrived.

The empire has also decided on a major event in recent days, which is to explore the moon.

Under the leadership of Vegapunk, technology has become increasingly powerful and advanced, and Xia Le has already seen a bit of what it looked like in his previous life.

Time continues to pass.

Fifty-five years of the empire.

Xia Le sat quietly in the cemetery, feeling neither sad nor happy.

What you see are familiar names, including his wife Boya Hancock.

But he himself is still as young as twenty years old and in peak condition.

Xia Le fell into confusion. When all his relatives were gone, what could he do if he had invincible power?

"Father!"

An old voice came and Xia Le turned around.

What he saw was his son's already slightly older face, and the white hair on his temples showed that he was already quite old.

Looking to one side, he saw his second daughter and her husband's family, with a bunch of children behind them.

"It's time for you to abdicate!"

Xia Le said softly.

Then he caressed the other person's face.

"Spend good time with your children."

Xia Ming was startled, and after a moment of silence, he nodded slightly.

He has indeed been in this position for too long.

The next year, Xia Ming abdicated and a new emperor took office.

The empire seems to have entered a new cycle.

Xia Le stayed in his small courtyard and never went out again.

Until his children passed away, and his children’s children passed away, and the empire lasted a hundred years.

By this time, he had become history and legend, and even his own bloodline no longer recognized him.

Only this courtyard remains.

In the past hundred years, the empire has experienced rise and fall. It collapsed once and fell apart, but was reunited by one of Luffy's descendants.

Fredem gave them the belief in great unity. From now on, as long as the kingdom is divided, everyone in it will have the belief in unity.

Time continues to pass.

One hundred and fifty years after the empire, Xia Le still has not seen subtitles. He is still in his prime as if he is in his twenties.

After two hundred years of empire, the world has changed greatly.

Two hundred and sixty years of empire.

The outside world has become completely unfamiliar, as if it has become another world. Xia Le left the Amien Holy City and traveled around the world.

Twenty years later, he returned to the small courtyard again and waited quietly.

Until the three hundred years of the empire.

Xia Le's eyes froze and his whole body became stiff.

All he saw was a subtitle, shining with crystal brilliance, appearing in front of his eyes.

"Wealth, fame, power, strength, these things that you have worked so hard to get, are you willing to give them up?"

"Then, start a new life that belongs to you?"

Xia Le smiled and stretched out his hand tremblingly.
