The most courageous pirate hunter

It successfully piqued the man's interest.

bang bang bang! ! !

A powerful storm whipped up sand and dust, and Luffy's numerous punches struck Hermes. The attack was earth-shattering, and soon after, Luffy's eyes were filled with disbelief and existential doubt.

Because Hermes was standing there, not only did he not cough up blood or retreat, but even the halo of mist behind his head and the burning flames all over his body did not cause much of a ripple; he was completely unaffected.

With Hermes' current defense, even if he just stood there and let Luffy hit him, he wouldn't be able to cause any damage in the short term.

It's just that firm.

"not good!"

Garp keenly sensed Hermes's state; if he hadn't shown any ill will towards Luffy before, he was now clearly in danger.

Luffy is in danger.

"Luffy, retreat quickly!"

"Jie Jie~"

"I didn't want to kill you, after all, you still have some use. But I'm not like other villains, I'm wary of the forces behind you."

"Just because you dared to attack me, you should be prepared to be killed."

As soon as Hermes finished speaking, an unseen attack struck Luffy.

puff~

The sound of a sharp weapon piercing flesh filled the air, and a large amount of blood splattered. Luffy opened his mouth and spat out blood like a skewer, his angry face turning deathly pale at a visible speed.

"Luffy!!!"

The air fell silent.

Zoro drew his sword, Sanji charged forward, and everyone else rushed out with bloodshot eyes.

Chapter 201 [Using a Nuclear Bomb to Kill a Chicken]

"Luffy!"

A series of heart-wrenching screams rang out, terrifying Robin and the others.

cough cough cough.

Luffy felt all his strength drain away, and the cold pain in his chest reminded him that it was all real, with drops of hot blood gushing and splashing down.

At this moment, Luffy's chest was pierced by Hermes' finger, and he was hanging in mid-air like a barbecue skewer, with blood uncontrollably gushing from his mouth and nose. He didn't even see how his opponent made the move.

If Garp hadn't shouted for him to turn to the side, the blow might have hit his heart, but even so, he still suffered a huge blow.

"pain!"

Hermes turned his head, his eyes flashing with a bewitching green light. A wave of energy instantly enveloped Nami and the others who rushed up. They didn't know what had happened, but they all knelt on the ground and rolled around in pain as if they had been subjected to a slow and painful torture.

The Soul Transfer Technique is activated, manipulating emotions with Observation Haki.

"Luffy."

"hateful."

Only Zoro and Sanji managed to get up, and both of them charged toward Hermes with bloodshot eyes.

"You're asking for it, Jormungandr!"

A terrifying aura, as deep as an abyss, swept across the entire area. Garp, enraged, flashed in front of Hermes, his fist covered in berserk Armament Haki, and he slammed it towards Hermes without holding back.

boom! ! !

The massive impact overturned the ground, and a punch and a knee collided powerfully. Nami and the others, who were screaming in pain, were sent flying, leaving no vegetation within a radius of a thousand meters.

Unable to control his movements, Hermes was forced to release Luffy and move sideways, feeling a slight soreness in his knees.

We can't hold back; that old guy Garp's fists are hard.

"Damn it, Luffy!"

Garp caught Luffy, whose blood-stained chest revealed his internal organs at a glance. He was no longer arrogant and opened his mouth to say something, but all that came out was blood foam.

"Hold this old man back."

Hermes wiped the blood off his hands. The other person was still alive and needed to be killed completely. Logically speaking, the other person shouldn't have been able to react to that stab, but miraculously, he dodged it.

This turned a seemingly hopeless situation into a situation of severe injury.

No.

He must try again, otherwise his mind will not be clear, which would be a great sin. He would not be able to enjoy his food in the future, and he would feel uncomfortable all over. He cannot bear such suffering.

"Hahaha~"

Burgess and Lucci disappeared from their original spot first, then appeared on the left and right sides around Garp. They both went all out from the start, and it's unclear who they learned that from.

"Extremely powerful, unsinkable ship cable-stayed design".

"The Greatest Wheel of the Six Styles: Six Kings Spear".

"hateful."

A blazing light flashed, Garp's face was ferocious, he held the half-dead Luffy in one hand, and with the other hand he clenched his fist and gathered violent Armament Haki, and quickly threw two attacks in front of him.

In an instant.

A mushroom cloud rose from the ground, and the already cracked and collapsed surface continued to sink.

Two figures flew out from the middle, namely Lucci and Burgess. Sparks were flying from their bodies and a trace of blood was spilling from the corner of their mouths, which showed that Garp's two punches were very powerful.

"Hahaha~"

"Truly a naval hero."

Both Burgess and Lucci were somewhat moved, as their opponent had actually blocked their combined attack.

As the dust and smoke gradually dissipated, two marks appeared in front of Garp. His chest heaved violently as he gasped for breath, his eyes were terrifyingly cold, and the Armament Haki swirling around his body surged like flames.

"Coby, Luffy's crew, let's get out of here as soon as possible!"

Garp casually tossed the unconscious Luffy aside, and Coby, pale-faced, caught him in the distance. Meanwhile, Zoro and Sanji, supporting Nami and the others who looked like they had just recovered from a serious illness, obediently turned and left.

They had no chance of winning against this group.

This is not the same as when facing Crocodile and Baroque Works, both of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. The two sides are not even in the same league. I'm not exaggerating. Any one member of Monarchy could wipe them out.

Including Mansherry.

The current Mansherry is no longer that little crybaby, but a genuine user of the Six Powers, Life Return, and two types of Haki. She also maintains Life Return as a normal state whenever she has the chance.

The Straw Hat Pirates don't even know Haki right now, so they're incredibly weak.

"Jie Jie Jie~"

Faced with the fleeing Zoro and his companions, Hermes instantly grew to a hundred meters in size, almost able to overlook most of Water Seven, casting a huge shadow over the land. He drew the watermelon knife from his neck, which grew to a hundred meters in size and burned with raging purple-white flames.

Originally, I wanted to use Van Gufried, but unfortunately, the Devil Fruit ability cannot amplify living beings, so Van Gufried is like a hair compared to a hundred-meter-tall body. For now, the watermelon knife is still the most handy tool.

"What are they trying to do?"

"Giant...Giant!"

Robin and the others, who were fleeing, only felt that it was getting dark. They turned around with pale faces and saw that the god-like man had suddenly appeared, standing tall and firm, holding a hundred-meter-long, flaming watermelon knife in both hands, and slowly raising it to aim at them.

A chill ran straight up to the top of his head.

this moment.

Everyone in that shadow felt the threat of death; the chilling, terrifying feeling of being surrounded by fear was so clear and chilling.

"how come...."

"Run away!"

"Is this the most terrifying man in the world?"

"Do not!!!"

"what is that!"

"A giant has appeared."

Visible to the naked eye.

Hermes gripped the watermelon knife tightly with both hands, slowly raising it with terrifying power, causing the entire sky to roar with wind and clouds; the visual impact alone was shocking and subversive.

Those who could directly sense the danger were Garp, Burgess, and others.

Because those who are too weak can only vaguely sense the overwhelming suffocation, while those who are similar can feel it more deeply.

"That's stupid!"

"Why is the BOSS suddenly acting strangely?"

"A few weaklings, is it necessary to go all out?"

"What are you doing?"
