Chapter 182 - 182 - The Golden Emperor!
Tables, chairs, chandeliers, decorations...
All the gold objects in the room became Tesoro's murder weapon!
If Will hadn't been more careful and prevented the invasion of Tesoro's golden powder in advance, his life and death would have been on this guy's hand.
But without this disgusting trick, Tesoro really wasn't enough in front of him, even if he awakened the Golden Fruit!
After easily knocking down all the swords, spears, battle-axes, and hooks that came at him, and then dodging the waves of liquid gold, Tesoro has no more new tricks, unless he directly amplifies his moves...
"My patience is limited, if you don't stop, I'll have to do it for you...."
"I admit that you were vigilant and careful enough to avoid even the golden splash, but your biggest mistake was that you shouldn't have put on this gauntlet in front of me as that will...!"
Before the word "kill you" was uttered, the red-eyed Tesoro used all his abilities on Will's 'golden' gauntlet.
Since the gold powder did not invade his opponent's body, Tesoro lost the way to defeat the enemy with a single blow, but it didn't matter as Will gauntlet was his weapon of victory!
As long as he can control that 'golden' gauntlet to trap Will, it's all over!
He is the Golden Emperor!
The man who rules over all the gold in the world!
Move it!!!!
Ah?
Why can't I control it?
Tesoro is like a child who has Chuunibyou disease, looking crazy as he keeps shouting, but the reality is so cruel!
"Idiot!"
Will, who knew what Tesoro was thinking, mocked him, then he turned into lightning as he sank into the gold, and then dazzling electric lights flooded the entire room!
Didn't you know that lightning is the natural enemy of gold?
Tesoro tried to hide behind the hard gold, but it was in vain. The conductivity of gold is only behind silver and copper, not to mention that the heat generated by the high-voltage current is enough to smelt gold!
And Will believed that Enel's 'Lightning metallurgy' was a masterpiece, melting a lump of gold into any shape he wanted in just one second!
After the lighting hit the gold, suppressed grunts were heard... Then an unbearable howl... Finally, there was only the moaning sound after Tesoro got paralysis...
Will grunted coldly, then withdrew the electric light from his body.
If he wanted Tesoro's life, he could have just electrocuted him to death with all his electricity!
Even if Tesoro hid among the golden giants he created when he fought Luffy in the movie, the same fate will happen to him, because even if he has the ability to become gold, it could not change the validity of the excellent conductive properties of gold!
If he were to fight someone else, Tesoro, who is still a top-notch fighter thanks to his Devil Fruit Awakening, would be even stronger if he were to do it in his home base, the Golden City.
But if someone who restrains his abilities appears, he will only be mercilessly hanged!
The problem of constraint between devil fruits is so serious, just like the fledgling Luffy who can hammer Enel who is close to an Admiral's strength.
Unfortunately for him, Will's thunderbolt fruit is the one that can completely overcome his golden fruit!
It's just too easy to abuse him!
As for Tesoro's ridiculous kill plan using his infinity gauntlet, Will is helpless, he has never seen anything that can damage it since he got this one pair of infinity gauntlets!
It's not clear what material the Infinity Gauntlet is made of, but even if they do have gold in them, it would be too bad for the artefact's name if they were so easily controlled by Tesoro!
Because that's a special carrier that can withstand the energy surge of six Infinity Gems!
Don't think too much, son!
"Can we talk about it now? If there's a next time, I don't mind just killing you and letting this Golden City get a new owner!"
Tesoro created a chair for Will as he sat down again,
Only this time the situation of the strong man and the weak man was already very obvious, although Tesoro's eyes were filled with anger, but he had to admit this fact, in front of this man, he is not an opponent at all!
How sad!
Fortunately, although Tesoro has not learned anything else over the years, but he has mastered the art of patience and acceptance of cowardice.
He has never thought of taking revenge on the World Nobles even though he has climbed to this position, and all he thinks about is making money, thinking that money can control everything.
But for Will, Tesoro's perspective was a mindset of the weak!
Even on Earth, where personal force is negligible, money alone is useless, since those who have money are just fat sheep to be slaughtered in the eyes of others, especially those who have strong forces!
The world is ultimately based on fists, and whoever has the hardest fists is the master of the world, and they are the one who controls other people's fate!
For such a stupid person, Will doubted whether he had broken his brain by giving this man this opportunity!
It would be better to just kill him...
Perhaps sensing Will's killing intent, Tesoro, who had recovered somewhat, immediately asked, "What do you want?"
"If you want my wealth, I can share it with you if you promise to keep my secret!"
When he said this, Tesoro was so frustrated, but he couldn't help it, if his life was over, money was of no use!
"What are you talking about! Do I look like that kind of person! If I want money, I'll just kill you, and everything here will be mine!"
Hearing it, Tesoro's face was beet red from anger! But he can't argue...
"Since we've reached this point, I won't beat around the bush, I think you kid is a talent and want to take you on as my logistics supervisor."
Tesoro looked at Will with a dumbfounded face, what the hell?
Not only did you want to steal my money, but you also want to co-opt my power?
"Give me a reason!"
Tesoro said in a deep voice. If he chooses to join Will's forces, then it means that his country is no longer recognized by the world government, and it is no longer possible for him to lie down and make money in peace and security.
And the world government will never allow a pirate to control the world's economy, and will definitely try to kill him!
"If I will die, why do I have to do it!"
"Reason... Does revenge against the World Nobles count?"
Tesoro immediately clenched his fists, a pain in his heart that would last forever!
He could never forget the mark of shame on his back, and even more so the woman who had made him change his ways...
"Money is my power, no money can buy anything, no man can do anything without money, and with money, even the world government, even the World Nobles must look to me, and I can use the power of money to manipulate them freely!"
"Isn't this enough!"
Tesoro roared with red eyes!
What a poor guy…
"It turns out that being immersed in false vanity is what you call revenge. Money blinds your eyes. In fact, you are just a clown in the eyes of the World Nobles. While performing hard to make everyone laugh, you are also smug about it at the same time. So you feel proud that you have 'manipulated' their smiles!"
"What a joke!"
