The most courageous pirate hunter

The words that rang in their ears could only be heard by them. It was a kind of Observation Haki ability that the BOSS had developed over the past two years. It didn't have much use; it was just a way to transmit sound within the range of Observation Haki.

"Boss, I can handle this. Give me a few more seconds."

Burgess was somewhat unwilling. He was about to take down Cracker, which was worth 860 million Berries. No thief would leave empty-handed, especially not someone like Burgess.

The opponent couldn't withstand more than a few punches.

Cracker, who was hiding behind a large number of biscuit warriors, was somewhat puzzled to see Burgess talking to thin air.

In fact, telepathy is reciprocal. As long as it is within Hermes' Observation Haki range, whether he speaks to someone else or someone else speaks to him, he can hear it.

However, this was only true for Hermes and the speaker; people like Mansherry and others couldn't hear what Bages was saying.

"Everyone else, retreat first. I'll lend you a hand."

Hermes flew swiftly toward Burgess. At this moment, Katakuri also realized that although he did not know why Hermes had suddenly left, it was definitely the right thing to do to stop him.

Moreover, the other party was heading towards the direction of the cracker.

However, halfway through the chase, he sensed the terrifying aura on the horizon—it was that monster.

Chapter 137 [That Scoundrel Can Turn into a Dragon]

"boxing."

"boxing."

Burgess threw punch after punch, tearing the air and creating shockwaves that shattered all the Biscuit Warriors. Cracker, however, kept pulling away, refusing to confront Burgess head-on.

This shows they've made up their minds to stall for time.

However, the next second, Cracker felt a chill run down his spine.

"Shrink the earth into an inch."

A four-millimeter figure appeared instantly, rendering the layers of biscuit warriors' blockade ineffective. Hermes returned to normal size the moment he got close, his fist wreathed in purple-white flames, and he blasted it explosively toward Cracker's abdomen.

Time seemed to slow down.

Cracker could only watch helplessly as the punch came hurtling towards him.

He didn't have time to dodge.

puff! ! !

His body lost control immediately. Cracker bent over and almost vomited bile. His eyes bulged and his face was contorted in a ferocious expression. The ground within a hundred meters completely collapsed.

Before Cracker could even fly away, Hermes swiftly reached out and grabbed him by the neck, his Armament Haki violently assaulting him and further damaging Cracker's internal organs.

Blood gushed from Cracker's mouth and nose in an instant, and he soon fell into a coma with his head drooping.

"BOSS."

"Retreat first."

Hermes didn't waste any more words and gestured for Bages to leave quickly.

Not long after the two left, Katakuri, Daifuku, and Compote arrived one after another, but it was all too late.

"Damn it, Cracker's been arrested!"

"We underestimated each other."

Everyone's face turned extremely grim, and then they all looked towards the horizon, where the terrifying aura was getting closer and closer.

the other side.

Hermes, with Cracker by the neck in one hand and Burgess in the other, flew rapidly across the sea. The Death Ship had already been taken away by Mansherry and the others, and they were going to reach the next island as quickly as possible to ambush the approaching Kaido.

"Hang up the cracker, Mansherry, quickly give me a sip of milk, Guyram, go prepare a lot of meat, everyone get back to your senses."

"Kaido will definitely catch up."

As soon as Hermes landed on the deck, he tossed Cracker to Hody Jones, then looked at Mansherry and Guyram. The battle with Katakuri had drained him of a lot of stamina and Haki, and he needed to recover as quickly as possible.

"no problem!"

Mansherry cut her finger and quickly flicked a few drops of blood onto everyone. Soon after, Guyram brought out a large amount of food, and Hermes, in a low-cost life return state, kept stuffing it into his mouth.

In this way, his physical strength and domineering aura were quickly restored.

"Boss, the closest island group to here is the Alpad Islands. Should we ambush Kaido here?"

Guyram pulled out a nautical chart from somewhere, showing the existence of many islands, the closest of which was the sparsely populated Alpad Islands.

“Kaido has the ability to fly, and we will be caught up sooner or later. This is the best place for the final battle.”

As Hermes ate, he pondered that those sailing on the sea could not possibly be as fast as those flying in the sky, and if they were caught up and a battle broke out, they would be the ones who suffered.

Even Hermes couldn't stay airborne for long, let alone anyone else.

But Kaido is different; that bastard can turn into a dragon.

"I didn't expect Kaido to arrive so quickly."

"It's not surprising. That guy suffered a lot at our hands last time, and we also captured his men. If he doesn't get rid of us, his reputation as one of the Four Emperors will be worthless."

"But can we capture them? They're one of the Four Emperors!"

"Haha~ I tried it last time, and it was actually quite difficult."

Bages still feels lingering fear when he thinks about it.

"Don't be a coward!"

that's it.

The Death sailed rapidly toward the Alpad Islands, while the unconscious Cracker was suspended from the mast, watched from below for most of the day.

He had the misfortune of being hung here once, and perhaps he developed feelings for it, but now he especially wants to hang others here, as it gives him a thrill.

the other side.

Amidst the severe weather of thunder and lightning, a figure resembling a demon god descended from the sky, crashing to the ground and kicking up a large amount of gravel and dust, causing Katakuri and the others to look solemn.

"Lingling's children."

Kaido leaped out of the crater, wielding his spiked club and exuding a menacing aura.

Facing this man who was on par with his mother, Katakuri and the others felt increased pressure. They were unsure whether he would make a move, after all, there were conflicts between the Big Mom Pirates and the Beasts Pirates.

Before Katakuri and the others could answer, Kaido turned to look in the direction Hermes and the others had left, leaped up and quickly transformed into a blue dragon, riding the clouds and chasing after them.

"Is Kaido's target also the King of Hunters?"

"Not surprising, that guy offended not only us, but also the Beasts Pirates!"

"I heard that the King of Hunters made Kaido suffer a loss two years ago, but I don't know if it's true or not."

"Katakuri, should we give chase?"

"We must catch up and rescue Cracker."

soon.

Katakuri and his crew also gave chase in their pirate ship. This time, they not only failed to capture the Hunter King, but also lost Cracker, which was completely different from what they had initially expected.

Standing at the bow of the ship, Katakuri clenched his fists.

Time is indeed fair.

While you are getting stronger, others are also getting stronger, or even stronger at a faster pace.

This man might be his lifelong enemy.

"No, this speed is too slow. We'll be caught up before we even reach the Alpad Islands!"

"We would be at a great disadvantage if a battle broke out at sea."

On the Death Ship.

Hermes frowned. Kaido was rapidly approaching them. As expected, sea travel was not as fast as air travel. It was a pity that his Moonwalk was not yet fully mastered and he could not maintain flight for a long time. Otherwise, he would not be afraid of anyone in a sea battle.

"Hody, go!"

Mansherry gestured to Hody Jones to stop looking at the hanging crane and hurry up and get into the sea to speed up the Death.

This is his only use at the moment.

"Don't order me around!"

Hody Jones was very unhappy, but he still jumped into the sea. The next second, the Death Ship began to accelerate, and Kaido would not be able to catch up for a while.

However, by the time he reaches the Alpad Islands, he will likely be exhausted and unable to participate in the battle.

to be frank.

Even if Hody Jones were at his peak, it probably wouldn't make much difference. Even after two years of training, Hody Jones wouldn't be able to participate in such high-level matches.

A single Conqueror's Haki is enough to completely suppress it.

Only Guyram and Bages are eligible to participate in the battle.

Therefore, only these three can truly harm Kaido. Hermes goes without saying, he is definitely the number one in a head-on confrontation, and Burgess is also a major damage dealer. With the Power-Power Fruit and Armament Haki that enhances internal destruction, he has no problem going head-to-head with Kaido.
