Chapter 149: Golden Lion! Gaban Joins
"Another incredible guy has arrived."
"The great pirate! [Flying Admiral] Golden Lion Shiki!"
"A man who could compete with Roger and Whitebeard!"
"If it weren't for that sudden storm in the Edd War back then! The Pirate King might have been a different person!"
"Yeah! This is an absolute legend! A man even more formidable than Wang Zhi and Silver Axe!"
Meanwhile, upon seeing Golden Lion, the Gold Emperor, Hawkeye, Doflamingo, Moria, Crocodile, and others were once again stunned on the spot!
Undoubtedly, this was another super-formidable legendary great pirate!
In terms of strength and status, he even surpassed the great pirates Wang Zhi and Silver Axe who had just appeared!
It was no exaggeration to say that in Golden Lion's prime, his limelight even surpassed Roger and Whitebeard!
In the Edd War back then, Golden Lion led his fleet and almost wiped out the Roger Pirates!
If it weren't for that sudden storm that swallowed Golden Lion's fleet!
From then on, Golden Lion's vitality was greatly damaged!
Now, after escaping from Impel Down, Golden Lion had a ship's rudder stuck in his head, and his feet were replaced by two famous swords.
His aura was far from its peak!
There were even rumors that he had recently been defeated by the rookie Straw Hat Luffy!
But no matter how down and out Golden Lion was now.
No one dared to underestimate this great pirate who could compete with Roger and Whitebeard!
Never underestimate the ambition of a strong man!
"That... that... isn't that the great pirate who fought with Luffy?"
"Golden Lion, Shiki!"
"My god! He's here too! How could it be!"
"He's not here for revenge, is he!"
The Straw Hat Pirates screamed in fright upon seeing Golden Lion!
Last time, if not for their explosive luck, how could Luffy have defeated such a legend!
"And the man next to him is also a legend!"
"Scopper Gaban, on par with the Dark King Rayleigh, a powerhouse who assisted Gol D. Roger in becoming the Pirate King!"
"Two more legendary powerhouses!"
Besides Golden Lion, the one who came with him was Scopper Gaban!
Also a legendary great pirate!
The eyes of the whole world were focused on these two legends who had reappeared at this moment!
Big shots were coming one after another, almost without stopping!
This also made the mouths of people all over the world not close!
"You can't be absent from this kind of occasion, can you? You stinky lion who loves to join in the fun!"
Seeing the newcomer, Whitebeard also mocked him immediately.
As one of the three legends who stood at the pinnacle of pirates in the previous era.
Whether in strength or status, Golden Lion was not much different from Whitebeard, even on an equal footing!
If not for Golden Lion rushing into Marineford alone after Roger's death and being thrown into Impel Down by Garp and Sengoku together!
He would definitely be one of the Four Emperors of the new era!
"He's old and out of shape! This guy Golden Lion!"
"Yeah! Not at all like the Second Division Commander of the Rocks Pirates who could suppress us!"
"Time spares no one!"
Wang Zhi and Silver Axe also sighed after seeing Golden Lion.
"Jihahaha, Whitebeard, Wang Zhi, Silver Axe, Redfield, and even Rayleigh, Bullet, and Byrnndi World, these old rivals are all here!"
"Seeing you, it's as if I've become decades younger in an instant! How nostalgic!"
"My youth!"
Seeing this lineup on the scene, Golden Lion was excited and couldn't help but take a deep drag on his cigar!
Then a brilliant smile appeared on his face!
It had been 20 years. It had been a long time since he had seen so many old comrades at once!
Seeing them, Golden Lion couldn't help but think of the days when he roamed the sea!
How high-spirited he was!
"Captain Shiki, long time no see!"
"Captain Shiki is here too! How nostalgic! The way he was in the Rocks Pirates back then!"
Shakky and Miss Buckingham Stussy also greeted Golden Lion enthusiastically!
Shakky had a good relationship with everyone in the Rocks Pirates and got along with everyone.
And Miss Buckingham Stussy, in the Rocks Pirates, was a member of Golden Lion's division, just like that guy Kurozumi Higurashi!
"Oh? Shakky, Miss Buckingham Stussy! You're here too!"
"I really didn't expect such a complete gathering! Not many of the guys from the Rocks Pirates are left now."
Seeing Shakky and Miss Buckingham Stussy, Golden Lion also recalled the days of the Rocks Pirates!
It was a good experience.
"Oh? Gaban, even you, who is naturally cold, are here! This is really unexpected!"
"Mr. Gaban is also present, which is indeed surprising."
Meanwhile, the gazes of Rayleigh, Bullet, and Inuarashi, Nekomamushi, and other former members of the Roger Pirates were on the man beside Golden Lion!
Scopper Gaban!
The third-in-command of the Roger Pirates, known as the [Left Hand of the Pirate King]!
Also a partner who fought side by side and went through life and death together back then!
Powerful, even on par with Rayleigh!
"Hahaha! Rayleigh, Bullet, and Nekomamushi, Inuarashi are here too!"
"I originally wanted to spend my later years in peace, but who would have thought I would see such a scene in the East Blue!"
"Don't forget, I also had a part in the Battle of God Valley 36 years ago!"
"It just so happened that when I was preparing to go to Marineford, I met Shiki in the East Blue, so I came with him."
Seeing Rayleigh, Bullet, Nekomamushi, Inuarashi, and other old comrades, Gaban also smiled happily.
Since Roger's death, he had never seen so many members of the Roger Pirates appear in the same place!
Seeing these partners reminded him of his youth!
"Golden Lion Shiki! And Scopper Gaban!"
"These two old guys have also appeared in Marineford!"
"Two more difficult enemies have arrived!"
Meanwhile, the moment Golden Lion and Gaban appeared.
The faces of the Five Elders, the Holy Knights, and Sengoku, Garp, and others present.
Their already gloomy faces darkened even more!
Their fists were also clenched tightly!
One after another, never stopping!
Even without these two great pirates speaking, the Five Elders and the others could guess their purpose!
Sure enough!
The next moment, Golden Lion and Gaban fixed their eyes on Rono!
"Golden Lion, Gaban, you guys came from the East Blue too!"
"Really unexpected."
Even Rono was a bit surprised at the sight of Golden Lion and Gaban.
After all, Golden Lion had been defeated by Straw Hat Luffy before and was disheartened!
Rono thought he wouldn't come.
As for Gaban, he was naturally cold and didn't like to join in the fun.
In the original story, he hadn't even appeared yet, which was enough to see that his personality was the quiet and low-key type.
Even these two came to this Marineford from the distant East Blue!
"Jihahaha! Need you ask? Vice Captain Rono!"
"The moment I saw you make the announcement to the whole world, I had to rush over even if I had to risk this old life!"
"The matter of killing the Celestial Dragons absolutely cannot be without me, Golden Lion!"
Golden Lion's eyes shimmered with tears as he looked at Rono!
If it weren't for the successive deaths of Captain Rocks and Vice Captain Rono in the Battle of God Valley back then.
His life would probably have changed a lot.
"Vice Captain Rono! The Second Division Commander! Golden Lion Shiki reporting!"
Golden Lion then submitted to Rono in front of the whole world!
"Hahaha! Former navigator of the Roger Pirates, Scopper Gaban reporting!"
Gaban, who was usually silent and spoke little, also announced to the whole world that he was joining the God Slayer Pirates!
At this moment, two more legendary pirates joined the God Slayer Pirates!
The whole world was in an uproar again
