One Punch of Justice

Chapter 58: Shiki the Golden Lion

Clark couldnt help but chuckle as he finally took notice of Saitamas appearance.

Saitamas eyes were dull, resembling those of a lifeless fish, and his head was round and bulbous,. This demeanor clearly indicated that he was nothing more than an inexperienced and weak person.

heh, heh, heh

Struggling to hold back his laughter, Clark couldnt help but blurt out, Oh goodness! You look seriously weak, man!

After a moment of contemplation, Saitama nodded without any change in expression, Yeah, Im used to hearing that.

Heh heh, so you also wanna tag along with Shiki, hoping for some easy benefits, huh? Clark chuckled and playfully winked at Saitama, as if to say, I understand your intentions.

He leaned in closer, continuing with a hushed tone, Well, you know what? Were in this together, my friend.

Who am I to judge, huh?!

Once Shiki makes the alliance official, well become more than just comrade, well be a family!

And mark my words, nothing and no one will dare stand in our path, not even the World Government!

The whole world will be within our reach, and well have everything we desire, gold, women, anything we set our sights on! Hahaha

Saitama gave him a blank, expressionless stare and remained silent.

Oh, by the way

After downing a large gulp of beer, Clarks eyes widened as he suddenly remembered something. He tapped the table while speaking to Saitama, As the night goes on, more pirates will be gathering here. It wont be cool for you guys to be dressed like that. You gotta wear a suit, like ours.

Saitama tilted his head down, examining his suit, and then shifted his gaze to Tashigis jacket.

Whats wrong with my suit? Saitama questioned with a hint of defensiveness.

Looks like that Golden Lion guy is really obsessed with appearances! Tashigi murmured under her breath.

A few minutes later, Saitama and Tashigi decided to leave the place.

Phew

As they stepped outside, Tashigi took a deep breath, her face contorting with displeasure. The air inside reeked of alcohol and stale sweat. I can barely stand it

Saitama nodded in agreement. Totally! Those guys sure know how to get wild.

By the way

Tashigi fanned herself with one hand and added, From what I saw, none of them left a lasting impression. They were generally quite weak Its rather odd, isnt it? I cant fathom anyone believing that group could possibly defeat the Marine Headquarters.

They might not be that strong, but numerous

Walking side by side, Saitama and Tashigi exchanged thoughts, They wont face the Marine Headquarters directly. Instead, theyll create chaos everywhere, exhausting the Navy Remember the wild beasts in the forest earlier, Tashigi?

Tashigi paused, her face reflecting contemplation. I do recall. Those beasts were exceptionally fierce, reminiscent of Sea Kings.

Thats probably their main force, Saitama interjected, suddenly recalling the Thunder God he had killed three days ago. Oh, and that long-eared guy who could conjure black spheres should also be one of their key members.

Tashigi nodded, seeking guidance. So, Saitama-sama, what should we do now?

Saitama pondered for a moment, then snapped his fingers in realization.

Well, at the moment He smirked and continued, Lets start by finding ourselves a couple of suits!

Later that same evening.

A massive flying warship descended upon the skies above the palace!

It was none other than Shikis flagship.

Amidst the crowd of pirates, Saitama and Tashigi spotted the colossal ship as they moved towards the higher levels of the palace.

unbelievable!

Tashigi stared in awe at the warship that had landed behind the palace. She mumbled, How is it even possible for that ship to fly in the sky

And these islands too?

I always thought they were natural sky, but beneath this land, its not clouds but solid ground

Its as if the entire landscape has been uprooted from the ground and brought up into the sky

Must be some Devil Fruit power or something.

Walking along, Saitama tugged at his slightly snug suit. Feels a bit tight Its really awkward

No youre good! Lost in her thoughts, Tashigi glanced at him and involuntarily responded.

But as she took in the scene before her, a smile formed on her lips. She paused briefly and then spoke. You look handsome, Saitama-san!

Really?

Hearing her words, Saitama perked up and strode forward with a renewed sense of confidence.

And then, with an embarrassingly loud rip

The backside of his suit gave way, leaving his assets exposed for all to see

Making their way through the corridor,

The pirates gradually filled the venue.

Inside the large room, tatami mats covered the floor with low tables arranged all around. Pirates took their seats one by one.

The area was exclusively for higher-ranking pirates (though they were just pawns), granting them the privilege of a personal audience with Shiki, and the chance to form important alliances.

Meanwhile, lower-ranking pirates gathered downstairs, enjoying drinks while eagerly awaiting Shikis speech.

The prestigious seating area had room for a hundred!

Saitama and Tashigi happened to replace the unlucky duo whose suits were stolen.

Once the Sky Island girl had refilled the pirates drinks, she discreetly stepped back.

It was then that Shiki, made his grand entrance, taking a seat at the foremost crimson table.

As his name suggested, Shiki had long golden hair that flowed down like a lions mane.

But even legendary pirates couldnt escape the natural process of aging.

He is a tall, dignified elderly man, dressed in traditional attire that reflects his deep respect for culture and heritage. The intricate orange trimmings adorning his garments showcase his attention to detail.

As he stands, his bald head shines in the light, a natural sign of aging that adds to his presence and wisdom. A captivating touch of whimsy adorns him, as part of a steering wheel crowns his head, creating an unexpected resemblance to a regal rooster.

In a remarkable display of ingenuity and resourcefulness, Instead of conventional legs, he relies upon his own swords, Oto and Kogarashi, to function as prosthetic limbs. With every step, these legendary blades become extensions of his will, seamlessly blending the grace of movement with the artistry of combat. This fusion of martial prowess and personal style further distinguishes him as a formidable force, captivating all who witness his extraordinary presence.

First of all, welcome, everyone!

The Golden Lion raised a glass of wine from his table, extending it towards the eager crowd. To all of you who have traveled far and wide to the heavenly realm, answering my call, it is truly an honor! Let us raise our glasses and celebrate together with this toast!

The pirates below had never encountered such legendary pirates before.

Their excitement was palpable, as if they were ready to bare their hearts and souls to these legends without a moments hesitation, gulping down any drink offered to them.

Shikis eyes narrowed as he glanced at the empty seat reserved for Enel, his voice barely audible as he whispered, Where is that arrogant fool?

Did he forget about this gathering?

Or does he purposefully wish to avoid the humiliation?

Hmph It doesnt matter!

Shiki emptied his glass in one gulp, his voice resonating through the room as he addressed the gathering, Its widely known that the East Blue is considered the weakest among the seas, and there are no legendary figures worth mourning for!

Let the battles rage on!

Today, the Golden Lion Pirates are formed, and from the East Blue, we shall unleash chaos upon the world! Kekekeke

The crowd erupted, their jubilant cheers reverberating through the room, YE!!!

Long live Captain Shiki!!! one of the spirited pirates shouted.

Were at your command, Shiki-sama, another voice rang out.

Yeah! That Bald Devil and Smoker have always been a constant nuisance. Its truly gratifying to witness Captain Shiki dealing with them once and for all! exclaimed another.

Hell yeah! Ive been waiting for that for so long! added another pirate.

Oh? Youre talking about that Smoker kid

Shiki chuckled coldly, his right hand tapping on the tabletop.

Hes a Devil Fruit user with a Logia ability, controlling nature itself.

He might pose some challenge for you lot

But no worries, that guy is barely clinging to life.

Tomorrow, when our crew sets sail for the East Blue, Ill hang him out in the open at the ships bow for a public execution!

Let that be a cheer for us!

An execution tomorrow?

An eager glance crossed Tashigis face, her eyes filled with a mix of relief and delight.

Just as she had suspected

Hes still alive!
