488: All the chapters appear, and the real battle begins

Within the holy war, Xiao Yang and Yan Kuan, who were beside Fang Yuan, took turns making moves, successively bringing back the hearts of powerful ability users who were about to perish in the great battle.

Among them, besides the Logia-type ability user Lin Xiumu, even Xiao Ran, who had the Roaring Fruit, fell in battle.

The hearts of two great Logia-type ability users, plus the hearts of three powerful Paramecia-type Devil Fruit Ability Users with the Poison-Poison Fruit, Ice-Freeze Fruit, and Bomb-Bomb Fruit, were also seized by him.

This couldn't help but make some powerhouses raise their guard, and finally, after some more powerhouses fell, the melee on the field gradually subsided.

Because they all knew that if it really continued. Even if they fought to the death, Doctor would still pick up the scraps then.

"Doctor, what exactly do you want to do by taking the hearts of those powerhouses?"

Zong Ze panted slightly, his voice asking with a hint of fatigue.

It was obvious that the melee that had just unfolded between him, Doctor Wan Qian, Mu Ming, Gu Cheng, and Lu Xu was by no means easy for him.

At this moment, Zong Ze's face was slightly pale, fine beads of sweat had seeped onto his forehead, and his breathing was slightly rapid.

However, despite this, he still stared intently at Doctor in front of him, trying to find some clues from the other party's expression and movements.

On the other side, the others who participated in the melee—Doctor Wan Qian, Mu Ming, Gu Cheng, and Lu Xu—had also stopped their hands at this moment, and they were also panting heavily.

This seemingly fierce battle was actually one where everyone implicitly held back their strength, after all, in the current complex situation, no one was willing to easily use their full power.

Because everyone knew very well in their hearts that if someone were to take the lead in getting serious at this moment, they would inevitably become the target of public criticism, thus falling into a situation of eternal damnation.

Therefore, although the scene was incredibly lively with fighting, the consumption suffered by each person was actually not too great.

Just then, Fang Yuan, who had been silent all along, slowly stood up.

He first gently patted the dust off his body, then slowly raised his head and began to look around.

His sharp, hawk-like gaze swept over everyone present like a biting cold wind.

Magma-Magma Fruit Zong Ze, Tremor-Tremor Fruit Doctor Wan Qian, Sand-Sand Fruit Sha Liao, Heavenly Thunder Fruit Mu Ming, Dragon-Human Fruit Gu Cheng, Golden Crow Fruit Lu Xu, Gold-Gold Fruit Lv Liang.

Float-Float Fruit Jin Fei, Merge-Merge Fruit He Chaosheng, Paw-Paw Fruit Xiong Lie, besides these people, most of the rest are their teammates.

"You'll know the answer to this question in a while, but now I also need to invite some friends out."

Fang Yuan smiled slightly but didn't stay on them for long, instead looking towards two different locations.

The people on the field were startled upon hearing this, and immediately followed Fang Yuan's gaze.

"Could there still be people who haven't appeared on the field?"

Before this person's voice had fallen, a group of people suddenly appeared at the edge of the battlefield.

"Those are people from the Great Xia Military Department, but their aura is so faint!"

The moment this group of people appeared, some people let out exclamations.

Because this group of people were all wearing Great Xia military uniforms, and each of them had a considerable aura, their gazes were as sharp as knives, clearly all powerhouses.

"Powerhouses from the Great Xia Military Department, holders of spirit tools created by devil fruits!"

Fang Yuan's gaze was like a torch, seeing through the true identities of these people at a glance.

At the same time, his gaze was firmly locked onto the person in the very center of this group.

"Your ability is indeed quite outstanding, but unfortunately, it still cannot escape my perception."

Fang Yuan's lips curved slightly upwards, revealing a confident smile.

Just at this moment, the person leading this group suddenly took a step forward, instantly blocking Fang Yuan's path and cutting off his gaze.

"Everyone! Please listen to me."

This person shouted loudly, his voice strong and powerful.

"My name is Wang Jun, and I am currently serving as the temporary Captain of this team.

In the outside world, I am a Colonel in a certain branch of the White Tiger.

We are all people of Great Xia, there is really no need to kill each other here.

Let's work together and think about how we can safely leave this cursed place."

Wang Jun said this while looking around, trying to stabilize the tense emotions of the crowd with his words.

After all, he had witnessed the entire thrilling battle before.

These guys who managed to survive are all exceptionally strong.

Coupled with their respective powerful abilities, even someone as strong as myself might not have a complete certainty of defeating them.

"The key to all the problems at hand is that mysterious and unfathomable great tree, as long as we..."

Suddenly, Lv Liang spoke up and interrupted Wang Jun, his voice even carrying a hint of sarcasm.

"Enough, Colonel Wang Jun, you saw the situation outside earlier, didn't you?

Even Lord Four Kings couldn't kill It, what makes you think we can succeed?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Jun was instantly rendered speechless, because he also knew he was being somewhat delusional.

"This is clearly a sub-space, we don't need to kill It."

However, at this moment, someone beside Wang Jun spoke up. This person wore thick glasses and a white coat, looking like a researcher.

"We even just need to wait, and when a certain point in time is reached, this space will automatically break open."

These words gave some despairing ability users hope. Although their strength was not weak, it was clearly unrealistic if they wanted to last until the end under the hands of these monsters.

"I, I think it's possible, otherwise we..."

Just as an ability user opened his mouth to say something, a magma attack and a bolt of lightning directly struck, blasting that person into a mist of blood.

"What kind of joke are you making?"

Zong Ze directly shouted, "I've waited so long for this moment, why would I run away?"

"Although I can't stand you, those words aren't wrong. It might be nothing for you people to leave, but if we don't become divine envoys, we will die soon."

The person who spoke was actually Mu Ming; he was among the few who had just attacked.

At this moment, he looked at Wang Jun and the others with disdain all over his face, "Aren't the spirit tools on you the lives of us Devil Fruit Ability Users?

Now you want to stay out of it, do you think that's possible?"

"They are all heinous criminals, executing them is only right!"

Wang Jun and the others directly retorted, but at this moment, Fang Yuan ignored them and looked in another direction.

"Logia-type Ice-Freeze Fruit ability user Bai Yuan, how much longer are you going to hide?"

These words startled everyone present again. They immediately looked, and indeed, a team slowly materialized.

The person leading them was none other than the white-haired Bai Yuan, with Nangong Ya, Xu Hao, Qin Hu, and others standing firmly behind him.

"Now everyone is finally here!"

Fang Yuan grinned, then spread his hands, revealing a look of excitement.

"The battle has just begun!"
