Alice's face was covered in sweat; she was powerless to resist this kind of natural disaster-level battlefield.
"There's no other way, let's go over there and wait." Ai Yin led her to a nearby floating island and sat on a cherry blossom tree on the edge of a cliff.
We need to conserve our energy first; who knows how long this fight will last...
This wait lasted for eight days.
At this moment, the golden lion's clothes were torn, and the blood on his shoulder blades, hands, head, and ribs had dried. His entire condition was being exhausted.
Even the floating islands sank to the vicinity of Wheat Ear Island.
On the other hand, Laurentina, apart from having her domineering aura greatly depleted, had almost no injuries on her body, but the eight consecutive days of fighting had also caused her great mental torment.
Shiki's face was terribly dark. Why did that guy always have a phantom praying whenever he suffered a fatal wound, and then recover to normal condition shortly afterward?
He could vaguely sense that Laurentina in her phantom form could also be injured. To defeat her, he would have to kill her in one blow at that moment, but that would be difficult.
In that state, her recovery ability and resilience were terrifyingly amplified! It would be very difficult for Shiki at this age to do that in this state.
Unlike the first day's battle, which was all about grand moves and endless lion heads and blood spears, this time it was different.
The two of them have almost abandoned their Devil Fruit abilities and full-fledged Haki, relying solely on physical skills and swordsmanship to fight each other.
"You bastard, your ability to pray is infuriating!" Shiki sneered, kicking to block the Specter Shark's slash.
"Hehehehehe, old man, you're not dead either."
Even in battle mode, Specter remained incredibly ferocious, swinging her fist with a shearse. Pure black spiderweb lace covered her arms with an imposing aura, even with a thin layer of pink film on top.
"Armament Haki flow?" Shiki smiled and nodded. "You are indeed very talented. In these eight days, you have not only touched the threshold of Conqueror's Haki, but you have also learned advanced Armament Haki quite well."
"But... that's not enough!"
He freed his hand and slammed it into Specter's Ryuo Fist, but it was entangled with Conqueror's Haki.
Dark red arcs of light and pink shockwaves locked in a stalemate in the sky, their dazzling brightness almost swallowing up all other colors in the world.
boom!
The ghost shark was blasted away, creating a deep crater, and the surrounding land crumbled like a spider web at that moment.
"Hahaha, you're still a bit lacking when it comes to using domineering aura against me."
. "
In the sky, the golden lion, its breath ragged, laughed loudly, its long golden hair, as if blown off, danced wildly in the wind behind it.
"Your talent is commendable, but your behavior is incredibly foolish. At this moment, you should use your physical advantage to wear me down with slashes and hand techniques, instead of using your domineering aura!"
"However, that punch of yours was quite troublesome... cough."
However, at this moment, his body suddenly trembled, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling as if many ants were crawling in his head.
His domineering aura and stamina are almost exhausted.
"But! If we can't even defeat the enemy before us, what's the point of talking about destroying the East China Sea?! Even if we die, we can't die in such a humiliating and pathetic way!!!"
"After all, I am... the Golden Lion, hahaha!!!"
Suddenly, Shiki burst into a hearty laugh, and the winds and clouds of heaven and earth seemed to converge on him at that moment.
"Damn rudder, you're free now. Thank you for taking care of me for the past ten years!"
He suddenly reached out and touched the ship's rudder above his head!

puff!
The half-ship's rudder inserted into his brain was suddenly pulled out, and thick blood gushed out from the four large holes, staining Shiki's head red.
Click!
At this moment, the wind and clouds surged, and lightning flashed and thunder roared.
A raging storm raged around him, rising ever higher, sweeping away the snow and overturning houses, creating an extremely oppressive and suffocating atmosphere.
He pulled out the rudder!
The ghost shark was dumbfounded, wondering if he had seen wrong.
Ayn wasn't much better off; she collapsed to the ground in shock, her eyes wide with disbelief.
Alice took a deep breath, instinctively hugged the branch tightly, and shuddered as she looked at the imposing golden lion at the center of the sinking Vermeer.
She had always believed that Specter would be an insurmountable mountain in the eyes of everyone in this era, but before she could gain momentum, she encountered Shiki, who stood at the top, and was so worried that she couldn't speak.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the golden lion, wondering how this legendary pirate would put on his final, unforgettable performance.
Shiki flew into the sky, his tattered robes fluttering and rustling even without wind, and then he opened his eyes.
hum!
A terrifying, unrestrained aura emanated from his eyes, sweeping across the heavens and earth. His ambition to conquer the world made people bow their heads in submission.
Almost instantly, Ain and Alice collapsed to the ground without any resistance.
Specter glared and unleashed a burst of Conqueror's Haki, but Shiki's Haki swept it away with overwhelming force.
Wow, Ghost Shark suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his body tumbling and falling around in a daze.
"Your Conqueror's Haki is too weak, hahahaha." Shiki laughed arrogantly across the world.
"Return to the Deep: The Desire for Survival!"
The circular saw, gleaming with brilliant sparks, shot towards them at a speed too fast to catch, but Shiki, in his full form, saw the attack clearly.
"The blow that wounded me." Shiki nodded, then followed up with a plain side kick, slamming Specter back into the crater. "All show and no substance!"
"Returning to the Deep: The Pressure of Survival!"
Ghost Shark flew rapidly from the crater, its loose white hair billowing in the wind. The next moment, it suddenly changed its move, its circular saw turning from orange sparks to bloodthirsty red, and it raised it high above its head and slashed down fiercely.
"A blow that severely damaged me." Shiki's feet moved with lightning speed, leaving afterimages as he unleashed a series of slashes, easily carving deep bloody gashes into Specter's body. "Pathetic!"
Bang!
The girl slammed into the hole again, her bones snapping like glass, and her hands gripping the circular saw trembled uncontrollably.
The reckless Golden Lion is so powerful that it is difficult to contend with!
High in the sky, the golden lion's figure suddenly trembled, and several floating islands sank slightly.
"Hehehehe, let me teach you something else, little girl." Shiki's laughter echoed through the heavens and earth, and the madness around him intensified even further.
"When fighting a powerful enemy, the first thing to do is to determine the distance between yourself and the enemy. What is needed is not only willpower, but also purity of heart!"
"So I took a ruler in one hand and measured my own purity. It has been 14 years since then. In these 14 years, I have indeed thrown away a lot of things, just like a train with a broken engine shedding cargo to reduce its weight."
With that, he raised his right hand, and Sakura and Kumoki were suddenly separated from their severed limbs, spurting blood. The intense pain made him frown, and then he gripped his twin swords tightly.
“Like this, remove the sword leg, hold two swords in your hands, and then…” He swung the swords downwards, and instantly, all the floating islands trembled.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
All the islands lost buoyancy and plummeted downwards one by one.
Even the dreams we carry are nothing more than a burden to victory!
On the only remaining floating island, the golden lion, now free from all its burdens, swelled up even more, standing in the air with a domineering gaze like a demon king.
"Now, we can have a good fight!"
"Is this the swan song of life?" On the ground, Ghost Shark smiled elegantly, the wind billowing her gown and white hair. "Very well, then I will offer you my final requiem!"
She held the circular saw, clasped her hands together in front of her chest, and closed her eyes slightly.
"Deep Sea Mass..."
Then her circular saw trembled slightly without her noticing, emitting a deep blue light, which then burst forth in a dazzling display, like a blazing sun.
"Before you enter the grave, I hope you can enjoy the melody of peaceful sleep."
Her eyes snapped open, a deep blue...
The circular saw pulled her soaring into the sky in an instant, gradually merging with the blue sun's phantom in Shiki's vision. "Hymn of the Lamb!"
She looked down at him with disdain, bathed in a holy light that seemed to engulf the heavens and earth, and with a magnificent and noble judgment, she swiftly and decisively struck Shiki's head as if wielding a divine weapon.
call!
A solemn light tore through the iron-gray clouds, and a ray of sunlight shone upon the lonely yet powerful figure.
"Is it another hallucination of the song?" Shiki tilted his head back, his consciousness in disarray, reality fading away madly.
In a daze, he seemed to be traveling through white time, where images spread and constructed wildly.
A majestic church appeared before her eyes, from which came the high and low chorus of believers. Ghost Shark stood in front of the seven-colored rose window, the light shining through making her look like a god.
At this moment, Shiki stood in front of Sister Shark #Shark, bowing slightly to receive the holy light.
I could almost hear the solemn prayer chants:
"The Lamb of God, He has mercy on you and takes away your sins!"
"Gods?" Shiki shook his head, his consciousness clearing up a bit.
"mercy?!"
He suddenly regained his senses, stretched out his legs, and unleashed a series of slashes, tearing the illusory world apart with a single Lion's Thousand Cut Valley strike.
But he forgot that in the real world, the two swords on his legs had already been removed!
puff!
A massive slash nearly cleaved Shiki's abdomen in two!
Wow, the golden lion suddenly spat out a large gulp of thick blood, and staggered as it barely managed to stand up.
"This is the Requiem you gave me?" Shiki exclaimed in surprise, then laughed. "It is indeed very powerful, but I am..."
He no longer controlled the blood, letting it flow rapidly. Instead, it shot into the sky at the speed of light, excitedly and frantically unleashing a large number of slashes.
"Lion·Senkiriya!"
As the sword was swung, the clods of earth on the floating island seemed to gain a will, rising up one by one, coalescing into a lion's head, and letting out a deafening roar.
"The Golden Lion!!!"
At this moment, the elegant figure, amidst the endless barrage of attacks and the lion's head that occupied the entire island, was like a lone boat in a storm.
The lion roars across the seas, its might overwhelming the world!
"The madness before death is truly terrifying."
Ghost Shark suddenly remembered Kizaru's catchphrase, couldn't help but chuckle, then picked up his circular saw and charged forward...
Boom boom boom! ! !
Shiki was panting heavily, blood gushing from his abdomen, while Sakura and Kuki were also knocked away in the battle.
Amidst the smoke and fire, Ghost Shark lay in a pool of blood, his body covered in bloodstains and bruises. The white-stockinged nun 'Ghost Shark' began praying again, but the healing of his injuries was incredibly slow.
"Hahaha, this time you're finally going to die soon too!" In the sky, the golden lion laughed madly, its fists waving wildly, and one after another, giant lion heads smashed forward.
"Die!"

"Lauren Tina!"
The two who flew up from the sea on moonwalk were terrified. They drew their twin swords and gathered pillars of light to stop the Golden Lion.
In their view, the floating island could no longer withstand the overwhelming bombardment and was completely torn apart, sinking steadily amidst the turmoil.
Ghost Shark lay stiff on the ground, the golden slashes and boulder bombardments relentlessly striking her, seemingly unaffected even by prayer.
If we don't intervene now, we'll die!
"Get in the way!" Shiki glared, and the intense pressure easily made the two of them dizzy and fall.
How ridiculous! A pretty face raised in a warm and welcoming era!
However, just as he unleashed another punch, a burst of light and a slash suddenly shot out from the spot where the two had disappeared, and then Ain and the other flew up again with wary expressions.
Oh? Shiki did think highly of the two of them, but was that all there was to it?
clang!
