One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 54 Fire Fist!

"boom!!!"

A sudden explosion rocked the side of General's City, sending thick smoke billowing into the air. The unexpected explosion caught the attention of the residents of Flower City.

When they saw the thick smoke billowing from General City, they were all stunned and could not believe their eyes.

That's the residence of General Orochi!
next moment.

"Qiang!"

With a massive slashing wave, General City was split in two, with the upper part sliding down along the gap left by the slash.

"Boom!!!"

Smoke and dust rose into the sky.

"what happened?"

"Could it be that Kozuki has returned?!"

"Quickly, the General is in danger!"

The people were overjoyed and prayed for the serpent to die, while the warriors who followed the serpent were terrified and desperately rushed to the general's city.

If the giant serpent dies, they will not have a good end either.

At this moment, in the banquet hall of General City.

The ceiling had disappeared, and flames were burning everywhere.

The members of the Beasts who accompanied Goode to the banquet removed their disguises, revealing their true colors, and stopped the samurai who were supporting Orochi.

The Spade Pirates!
Ace, engulfed in flames, stood in the way of the side hall. Seeing the samurai charging towards him, his fists ignited once more.

"fire punch!!!"

"Ahhhh!!!"

The samurai screamed as he was burned to a crisp.

The pirate crew, consisting of only a dozen or so people, stood like a city wall, repeatedly defeating the samurai who charged forward.

But the number of samurai continued to increase.

"Quickly gather all the samurai in the patrol group!"

The man with the cloth bag hid behind a pillar and roared anxiously at his subordinates.

No one could have imagined that at the critical moment when General Orochi was attacked, pirates from the outside world would infiltrate the general's castle and be incredibly strong, defeating them time and time again.

The situation is completely out of control!

The Spade Pirates grabbed Ace.

"Ace, leave this to us, you go after Orochi!"

"."

Ace glanced at his companions, then immediately turned and headed towards the side hall.

His mission is to kill General Orochi!
If Goode asked him to kill other people, he would definitely resist, but killing the giant snake would give him no psychological burden.

While resting in Amigasa Village, he learned from the villagers about the great serpent's evil deeds, and that such scum was unworthy to be king.

"A giant snake!"

Thanks to the opening of the General's City, the field of vision became wider, and Ace spotted the giant snake from dozens of meters away, and jumped up without hesitation.

"fire punch!"

"Guaaaaah!"

Before the giant snake could react, it was engulfed by the scorching flames, screaming in agony as its body turned charred and began to smoke.

Upon seeing this, Fukurokuju, who was confronting Kyoshiro, changed his expression drastically and, disregarding Kyoshiro, immediately blocked Ace's path.

"Who are you!"

"My name is Ace, and I'm here to take the giant snake's head!"

As Ace gave his name, several shurikens pierced his body, leaving gaps in his chest.

The flames burned, and the wound healed rapidly.

This scene caused Fu Lu Shou's expression to change drastically.

"Natural ability user!"

As the captain of the Oniwabanshu, he was naturally not so ignorant and recognized Ace as a Logia-type Devil Fruit user at a glance.

Nature-based systems represent power!

"To attack someone while they're speaking, what an impolite person!"

Ace grinned, his hands forming a pistol shape as he aimed at Fu Lu Shou, and dense sparks shot out from his fingertips!
"Musket!"

“Bang bang bang bang bang!!!”

Fukuro immediately sprinted to the side, pursued relentlessly by a barrage of fireballs. As he fled, he circled around to approach Ace, forming hand seals.

"The Art of Earlobes!"

Its long earlobes twitched, then quickly extended and shot towards Ace, binding him tightly like ropes. Capture complete!

"What kind of strange move is this?"

Ace stared in disbelief at the strange move that was wrapped around his earlobe; it was the first time he had ever seen such a bizarre technique.

Is it ninjutsu?

He had heard that Wano Country had ninjas, and he figured the long-eared man must be one of them, but how could such a ridiculous move possibly trap a Logia-type user like him!

His body glowed with an orange-red light!

"Pillar of Flames!"

A pillar of fire shot into the sky!

"Ahhh, my earlobe!"

Fu Lu Shou howled in agony, only half of his earlobe retracted, the rest burned to charcoal by the flames.

But the mental blow was far more severe than the physical pain. He had spent decades honing his ninjutsu and finally mastered the Earlobe Technique, but now he had lost his most powerful weapon.

He was surrounded by emerald green light spots.

The pupils of the gods Fu, Lu, and Shou contract.

"Firefly Fire Bodhidharma!"

"Boom boom boom!"

The continuous explosions of flames engulfed Fu Lu Shou, and when the flames dissipated, the charred Fu Lu Shou lay stiffly on the ground.

"Hu~~"

Ace let out a long sigh of relief, his depressed mood vanished, and he felt refreshed and comfortable all over.

Having been defeated by Goode without any apparent reason, he began to doubt his own existence. But now, after easily killing a ninja, his confidence surged back.

This is right.

He's aiming to become famous and the strongest man in the world. His previous defeat was definitely not his fault; it must have been that bastard's fault.

After leaving Wano Country, he will challenge the other four Emperors.

Okay, let's take down Whitebeard first!

Thinking of his plans, Ace immediately put on a confident smile and chased after the fleeing giant snake.

"Stop!"

"No, don't come here!"

The giant snake was terrified and fled for its life.

Although he was an ability user, he had never seriously trained and was not good at fighting at all. Besides, even Fukurokuju was defeated.

Kyoshiro, Good, Money
Nothing else matters at this moment; all he wants is to save his own life. He is the most esteemed general of Wano Country!
Damn pirates, where did they come from?!
Why kill him!
Tears streamed down the giant snake's face as it desperately pleaded for help.

"Is anyone there? Help!"

"There's an assassin here!!!"

"Whoever it is! Come quickly and save me!"

"Ouch! It's so hot! It hurts!"

When several courtesans appeared in front of him, a huge surprise appeared in the snake's eyes. Although they were hundreds or thousands of times weaker than him, they had become his lifeline.

"Come here quickly, you lowly maids, go and stop the assassins behind us!"

"."

The prostitutes huddled together, their gazes utterly indifferent. When they saw the giant snake's pitiful state, the corners of their mouths even curled up.

"You guys"

The giant snake's eyes were vacant.

In the past, these courtesans would always try their best to please him, but now they felt completely unfamiliar.

why why?
Did I not give you rewards?
Why did you betray me?!
"No one will save you."

Ace appeared before Orochi, his fist ablaze.

“I’ve heard stories about this country. A guy like you deserves to die a thousand times over for the crimes you’ve committed.”

"How dare you rebuke me!"

The giant snake transformed as if in a frenzy, its eight heads lunging at Ace.

"I will devour you!"

"."

Ace's gaze was cold, and his fists clenched.

"Go to hell with your sins."

"fire punch!!!"
