One Piece: From the Rocks Era to King of the World

Chapter 258 The Stronger Cadres
"Six Types of Secrets·Maximum Wheel·Six Kings Spear!"

Hermes' beast intuition and the power of observation Haki sensed the danger behind him. He had already gathered his strength before he even turned around. He turned around and attacked with both fists, directly colliding with Buddha's palm!

The moment the fists collided, Hermes felt the enormous impact on his fists. His arms suffered a severe impact, and even his muscles were torn apart. His whole body was knocked back hundreds of meters by a palm.

"Hahahahahaha, Admiral Sengoku, don't even think about chasing Hermes, take my punch!"

"Eight-punch secret: Gravity Tiger Cannon!"

Zhan Guo was about to take advantage of the victory to pursue the opponent, but Barrett excitedly rushed over from the side. His dark fist condensed into a gravity tiger, and a tiger roar swept over. Even Zhan Guo had to take it seriously.

"Buddha Palm!"

Zhan Guo slowly stretched out his palm like the real Buddha. It seemed like a gentle push, but the power contained in it was terrifying.

The strong impact force defeated Barrett's Gravity Tiger, and even the aftermath pushed Barrett's King Kong Titan body back dozens of meters.

"Two mythical beasts, what a trouble!"

Zhan Guo frowned.

He seemed to be able to easily repel Barrett and Hermes and suppress them, but he knew that even if he attacked with all his strength, he could not directly inflict heavy damage to Barrett and Hermes.

Relying on the powerful recovery ability of the mythical beast species, and the two-on-one situation, he would not have the opportunity to attack continuously, allowing the two to take turns fighting against Sengoku.

It was because of this that Zhan Guo was unable to defeat them in a short period of time, and was instead held here by the two of them.

"Hahahahahaha, Admiral Zephyr of the Navy, your opponent this time is me!"

After Ashura Boy came to the island, he found Zefa. He had teamed up with Qingjiao to deal with Zefa at the beginning, but now he has to deal with Zefa alone. This is the confidence given to him after his strength has increased in the past two years.

"Huh, you're alone? Where's Qing Jiao? Let him come along!"

When Zefa saw the Ashura boy appear in front of him, he snorted coldly with disdain.

"Hahahahahahaha, I want to challenge you in a duel this time. I want to challenge the admiral of the navy!"

After hearing Zefa's words, Ashura Boy ignored them and proudly stated his purpose.

He knew that he was no match for the Navy Admiral now, but only by fighting the Navy Admiral one-on-one could he know how big the gap between him and the Navy Admiral was.

"Arrogant pirate, this time I will send you to Impel Down and lock you up forever!"

After hearing what Ashura boy said, no matter how good-tempered Zefa was, he was enraged. Such words were obviously an insult to him!

In terms of seniority, Zefa is of the same generation as Li Yuan. Ashura Boy is just a cadre under Li Yuan. But now he comes to challenge him, a naval admiral. Doesn't this mean that Zefa is not even as good as one of Li Yuan's subordinates?
"One Sword Style: Shura Blood Slash!"

The Asura boy didn't care about all this. The Asura sword intent emerged, and the Asura blood shadow behind him filled the entire sky.

The Earth-Destroying Sword turned into a black sword, and with one slash, the blood shadow of Shura followed, and a flash of blood swept away like a meteor.

“Wrist Punch!!”

Being looked down upon like this, Zephyr was filled with anger. He covered his fists and wrists with black armament Haki, and exerted his best and most powerful wrist strength.

A punch hit the Earth-Destroying Sword. Even though the violent collision was not as strong as the one between Garp and Li Yuan, it was no less severe. The ground within a hundred meters was completely cracked by the aftermath of the collision.

Ashura boy felt the powerful force coming from the sword, gritted his teeth and tried his best to resist, but as Zefa exerted force again, Ashura boy was still knocked back dozens of meters by Zefa's punch.

"Hahahahaha, Zefa, how come you are so much weaker than you were two years ago!"

Although he was knocked back by Zefa and the pain of being injured was real, Ashura Boy was still very happy.

It’s not just because Zefa’s strength is weaker than two years ago, but also because his own strength is much stronger than two years ago, and because he has now confirmed that he has the ability to deal with the admiral in front of him alone!
"Hmph, it's enough to capture you and take you to Impel Down!"

Zefa snorted coldly and rushed forward immediately.

His strength is indeed weaker than it was two years ago. After all, after retreating behind the scenes and with a declining mentality, his domineering aura is gradually weakening. In another five or six years, his strength may fall from the ranks of top combat power!

"Hahahahaha, you want to catch me? Let's see if you have the ability to do it!"

"One Sword Style: Cross Evil Light Slash!"

Ashura boy laughed loudly, and the moment the Earth-Destroying Sword slashed down, a huge cross-shaped slash flew away at an extreme speed.

"Wrist cannon!"

Zefa's eyes focused, and he punched out. With the power of his wrist, he blasted the huge cross into pieces like a real cannon.

After the three strongest forces of the navy were delayed, many pirates of the Wuji Pirates immediately sailed to the island and landed.

With many captains paving the way, the navy had no way to stop the Infinity Pirates from landing on the island and could only watch as the pirates continued to rush off the ship.

"Meteor Volcano!!"

Sakaski's fists turned into molten lava and continuously sprayed huge molten lava into the sky. Then the molten lava turned into molten fists that fell from the sky and smashed towards the pirates.

He didn't dare to attack Li Yuan, but that didn't mean he wouldn't attack other pirates. Even though he was only a major general, his strength was no worse than those elite vice admirals of the Navy Headquarters, and he was even a little stronger.

"Eight-foot beautiful magatama!"

Although Borsalino kept shouting "How terrible", he also flew into the sky and waved his hands. Countless golden lights flashed and rushed towards the group of pirates.

The combined area attack of the two nature-types was like a natural disaster. With the falling of light spots and magma, it caused considerable casualties on the pirates' side.

Seeing this, Captain Mali flew into the sky with three pairs of white feather wings formed by the large number of feathers behind him.

“Meteor Feather!!”

With a wave of his hand, countless feathers turned into white streams of light and rushed into the sky, intercepting the falling spots of light.

The feathers look soft, but are actually extremely hard. Even spots of light that can easily penetrate steel are blocked by those feathers.

"Mari, the captain of the Infinity Pirates, is the user of the superhuman Feather Fruit. He is so scary!"

Borsalino was a little surprised to see that his special move was blocked by someone, and it was just a captain of the Infinite Pirates. He thought that the person who blocked his attack was a cadre of the Infinite Pirates, but he didn't expect that it was just a captain.

"Hmph, Marine, if you know how scary it is, then just stand still and let me kill you!"

Mali flapped his three pairs of feather wings and flew very fast, approaching Borsalino in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, the feathers that had originally blocked the many light spots also flew over, surrounded Borsalino, and strangled him under Mali's control.

"No, my life is precious!"

"Have you ever been kicked by a light?"

However, Borsalino did not resist Mari's feather strangulation, but kicked Mari with his long, shining legs.

"boom!!!"

The thick feathers formed a solid shield, blocking Borsalino's kick, but the powerful kick still kicked Mari back more than ten meters.

"You're actually a natural ability user, no wonder you're not afraid of my feathers!"

Mali watched in amazement as his feathers passed through Borsalino's body.

"I didn't expect that the captain of the Wuji Pirates is actually quite capable?"

Borsalino praised Mari, who had only retreated a dozen meters without suffering any harm.

"Haha, don't think you're invincible just because you're a naturalist!"

Mali sneered, then released a large number of feathers that formed a vortex to surround Borsalino and strangle him again.

But this time, the edges of the feathers were covered with a layer of dark armed color domineering.

Mari has been following Li Yuan since Li Yuan joined the Rocks Pirates. More than ten years have passed. Even if his strength is not as good as Kano who has become a cadre, it is not much worse!
"How terrifying! It's actually Armament Haki!"

Although Borsalino's tone was frivolous this time, it was unusually solemn. Armament Haki can hurt the natural type, so he dare not be negligent.

He condensed two beams of energy light waves in his hands and shot them in one direction, instantly forcing back all the feathers in one direction.

At the same time, Borsalino turned into a beam of light and rushed out of the range of the feather strangulation.

"So fast? And it's a light-type natural system, which is a bit difficult to deal with!"

Looking at Borsalino dodging his stranglehold, Mali said solemnly.

This kind of extremely fast natural ability user is very difficult to deal with as long as the opponent is not stupid. Although his flying speed is relatively fast, it is still much slower than the opponent.

"Boooooooooh!!!"

Borsalino, who escaped from the strangulation range, once again fired a large number of lasers at Mari with both hands.

"Meteor Feather!"

Seeing this, Mali immediately ordered the feathers that were originally intended to strangle Borsalino to fly into the sky, blocking the laser beams that were constantly shooting at him.

Although Mari's speed is not as fast as Borsalino's, Mari's fruit ability plus the power of domineering can easily stop Borsalino's attack.

At this stage, Borsalino's strength is not that strong. Now he is at most slightly stronger than an elite lieutenant general.

"This guy's Haki is so strong that we can't penetrate his defense!"

Borsalino said helplessly after several waves of attempts.

The fight between the two men fell into a stalemate, and neither could completely defeat the other!
On the other side, as Sakaski's meteor volcano fell, a light blue lightning figure rushed into the sky with moon steps.
