At the beginning, I summoned Li Jing, who is very cold, and I will fight against Hawkeye!

Chapter 548 The Growth of Yalulu

In fact, Scar's injuries were not serious enough to be fatal.

But a series of events and tremendous pressure accelerated the old giant's life.

His body had long been unable to bear the burden, and he eventually died under the dual pressure of fatigue and responsibility.

Warrior's Fountain, the sacred place of the giants.

Since Rocky's incident had not yet been resolved, Scar's funeral was simple and solemn.

Thick soil covered his body layer by layer, and this warrior who had worked for the giants all his life finally rested in peace.

His passing marked the end of an era, and meant that the burden of the giant race fell on the shoulders of a new generation.

Scar's death made Alulu the only elderly elder among the giants.

There is also a heavy title after his name

——Elder.

“I didn’t expect so many things to happen in such a short time…” Sauro stood beside Yalulu, his tone full of deep emotion.

His eyes fell on Yalulu's slightly gloomy face, and he tried to comfort the new elder with words.

Not far away, Robin and the members of the Straw Hat Pirates stood quietly.

Their expressions were complicated, with a hint of heaviness in their eyes. Under Sauro's guidance, they had already seen the mural hidden deep in Elbaf.

The content of the murals is rich and mysterious, almost symbolizing a "prophecy of liberation"

However, there was no trace of the Terun Adventure Group on the mural.

Thinking of this, Robin's eyes involuntarily turned to Tren.

At this moment, he was standing beside Scar's tombstone with a stern expression, as if he was out of tune with everything around him.

On the other side, more and more giants gathered around Yalulu, especially the peace faction represented by Sauro.

Their voices gradually became noisier and arguments broke out one after another.

"Yalulu, do you really want to leave the fate of Elbaf in the hands of that man?" A giant couldn't help but speak, with a questioning tone.

"Yalulu, Elder Ska's departure has nothing to do with that man?" another giant said, his voice full of anger.

"We can't turn Elbaf into the next Fishman Island! We must find a better way!" Sauro's voice suddenly sounded, his tone firm and powerful.

Yalulu sighed, slowly raised his head, and glanced at everyone: "Then do you have any better choice?

Or do you already have a clear plan?"

"Of course!" Sauro responded without hesitation, looking directly at Yalulu.

“I’ve seen the prophetic mural in Elbaf!

Its existence is not accidental, but the guidance of fate!"

"The content of the mural doesn't have a clear direction." Yalulu frowned, with a hint of impatience in his tone.

"No, it already has!" Sauro's voice suddenly rose, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

“I’ve got answers from the survivors of O’Hara!

The content of the mural symbolizes the arrival of the sun god Nika, and Nika's successor, Straw Hat Boy Luffy, is now in Elbaf!

Compared to the disaster-bringing Jenny Trun, the Straw Hat Pirates are the true Chosen Ones!

Every action they take proves this point!"

"The chosen one?" Yalulu frowned even more tightly, and Scar's last look before his death appeared in his mind again.

That determined look seemed to tell him that Tren was Elbaf's hope.

"Elder Scar has staked his life's honor on this, so he won't be wrong..." Yalulu murmured in a low voice, then raised his head and looked at Sauro with a firm gaze.

"I refuse. Only the Treun Adventure Group can save Elbaf today."

"That's because Jenny Tren was the only one present at the time! Elder Scar had no choice!"

Sauro's voice suddenly rose, with obvious anger and unwillingness in his tone.

Yalulu looked at Sauro and suddenly realized that the look in his eyes at this moment might be exactly the same as that of Elder Scar back then.

He finally understood what it meant to be an elder.

This means that every decision concerns the fate of the entire Elbaf.

"Sauro, you don't understand." There was a hint of fatigue in Yalulu's tone.

“Before leaving, Elder Ska held my hand tightly, and he didn’t let go until he heard Teren’s promise.

His choice was by no means an impulse one.”

"So you decided to push Elbaf into the abyss? Elbaf has never succumbed to any force since ancient times!

Choosing the Straw Hat Pirates is the right path!

Why don't you understand, Yalulu!" Sauro's voice was filled with suppressed anger, as if it would explode at any time.

"Please call me Elder, Sauro!" Yalu's voice suddenly turned cold, and his eyes were as sharp as a knife.

Sauro was stunned. He didn't expect that Yalulu would suppress him as an elder.

He clenched his fists tightly, and a trace of unwillingness and anger flashed in his eyes, but in the end, he said nothing, just looked at Yalulu deeply, and turned away.

......

Yalulu stood there, watching Sauro's back gradually going away, feeling mixed emotions.

He knew that his decision had caused a rift within the giant tribe, but he had no choice.

Elder Scar's last wish and Elbaf's future rest on his shoulders.

"Oh!" He took a deep breath and turned to walk towards Tren.

Teren still stood beside Scar's tombstone, his eyes cold and deep, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.

The figure was elongated in the afterglow of the setting sun, appearing particularly lonely and aloof.

"Captain Tren." Yalulu walked to Tren's side, his voice low and respectful.

Teren didn't look back, but just responded calmly: "Yeah."

Yalulu was silent for a moment, seemingly organizing his words.

He knew that the man in front of him was not an easy person to communicate with, but he had to try.

"Before Elder Scar died, he entrusted the fate of Elbaf to you." Yalulu spoke slowly, with a hint of earnestness in his tone.

"I hope you can understand what this means to us giants."

Teren still didn't respond, but just turned his head slightly.

His eyes scanned Arulu's face, as if waiting for him to continue.

Yalulu took a deep breath and continued, “Elbaf is now facing an unprecedented crisis.

The God Warriors were taken away, Loki was freed, and the shadow of the World Government looms over us.

We need your strength, but we also need your commitment.”

"Promise?" Teren finally spoke, his voice cold and calm, "What other promise do you want?"

Yalulu’s gaze became firm, and he looked directly into Teren’s eyes: “I hope you can promise not to turn Elbaf into your pawn.

Although we giants need help, we will never become anyone's vassal."
