The most courageous pirate hunter

Some of them even have ties to the World Government, and with Kuzan's reappearance in the Kingdom of Prodens, Most was genuinely afraid, which is why he hesitated to use force.

Attracting the attention of world governments would not do him any good.

"Captain, should we use our abilities to locate Jormungandr?"

Seeing their captain deep in thought, the pirates sought his advice.

"No rush. Go contact the violent family. We can cooperate on this matter. Let them do the work, and we can just sit back and reap the benefits."

"Captain, he's just a pirate hunter. If you were to take him on..."

"Alright, I can't get away from here."

Most waved his hand to stop him. He would go and discuss with the eldest prince later, and forcefully ascend the throne tomorrow, even if some people objected.

"Yes!"

After the pirates left, Most also left.

at the same time.

Hermes entered openly through the crack in the door, came to the bedside, and resumed his normal form.

He came here as soon as he entered the palace. According to Elizabello II's description, the fat man on the bed should be the eldest prince, Elizabello Paulo.

"what!!!"

A scream that ripped through eardrums rang out.

The maid, who was originally dressed in a very exciting manner, was so startled by Hermes that she almost lost control of her bladder when she suddenly found someone standing next to her.

"who."

Paul reacted immediately, looking at Hermes with a wary expression.

People don't talk much.

Hermes thrust the gun forward, and with a scream abruptly cut short, Paul's eyes widened in astonishment before he collapsed onto the bed, becoming a corpse.

They died very quickly.

He also died under mysterious circumstances.

The maid, who was about to scream again, covered her mouth immediately upon seeing Hermes's gaze, her eyes filled with tears of fear.

Hermes didn't kill him outright, but instead turned and left.

Although he wasn't a good person, he still had a basic sense of conscience.

After taking down Paul, the next target is Scythe Killer Most, a notorious pirate with a bounty of 67 million, who is also a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user.

This is arguably the opponent with the highest bounty Hermes has ever faced.

Coincidentally.

Hermes had just left the room and hadn't gone far when he encountered Most coming from the opposite direction. Most clearly saw that Hermes had come from Paul's room.

Chapter 35 [The Scythe-Fruit Made of Leather]

"Who are you!"

Perhaps it was the intuition of a master.

Both of them felt threatened the moment their eyes met.

For some reason, Most had a bad feeling. He was quite certain that the useless eldest prince was not with this person, because the other party had been under his surveillance the whole time.

Hermes ignored him and instead took out a bounty from his pocket.

Compare the two side-by-side.

That's right.

His target was Most, the captain of the Scythe Pirates, a scythe assassin with a bounty of 67 million, and a Paramecia-type Scythe-Scythe Fruit user.

In the original work, this Devil Fruit has very strong abilities.

She was eaten by a man nicknamed Whirlwind Eric, whose ability was to highly compress the air as his hand moved, creating slashes like wind blades and scythes.

The rising wind can easily slice through rocks.

The faster you wave your hand, the more wind blades you release at the same time, and the more you can gather the wind blades into a highly destructive tornado to tear your opponent apart.

Because the ability is to turn the air into wind blades, the opponent cannot see the color of the wind blades, but can only barely see the deformation of the air, and thus deduce the direction of the wind blade attack.

If used properly, one can defeat an opponent without them noticing.

Without a doubt, this is a very powerful Devil Fruit.

His tearing power is unparalleled, making him a unique swordsman.

However, it also has drawbacks, namely, the ability to perceive sight.

"You are the Scythe Killer Most?"

Hermes's rudeness immediately darkened Most's face.

Moster was a ruthless man who didn't talk much. He raised his hand and waved it, creating an invisible scythe-like wind blade that tore towards Hermes.

Quick and accurate.

Most people would be taken down by him in one blow if they were caught off guard; this has been proven many times, so Most is very confident.

However, Hermes was no ordinary man; he was the most courageous man in the sea.

The way the other party raised their hand and swung it was obvious to anyone that it was an attack.

Moreover, once he confirmed that the other party was his target, he had already become wary.

Activating Observation Haki is standard procedure.

Therefore, this scythe wind blade was exposed under Observation Haki. Hermes only took a step to the side, and the next second he felt a cold air sweep past, hitting a building behind him and easily tearing a large gash in it.

You can imagine how sharp it is.

When his first attack failed, Most frowned slightly and began to take Hermes more seriously. However, he did not stop attacking and waved his hands in the air one after the other.

Two invisible scythe-like wind blades tore through the air, one after the other.

Hermes calmly approached Moste, and as the attack came, he first stepped to the left, then to the right, and easily dodged it.

Most became serious.

"Anyone who can dodge my attack cannot be incompetent."

"Hey kid, what's your name?"

Hermes Jormungandr.

This time Hermes answered calmly and casually.

Most felt the name sounded familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before, but he couldn't quite place it. But it didn't matter; the other person would die by his hand anyway.

Swish swish! ! !

They did not continue the conversation.

Moster swung his hands out in rapid succession, like wheels of fire, and in just a second, more than a dozen scythe-like wind blades surged toward Hermes.

The air was visibly tearing and rubbing together. Hermes took a deep breath and focused his Observation Haki at a high intensity because there were too many attacks from the opponent.

This is difficult to avoid.

However, this environment is more suitable for improving Observation Haki and physical coordination, but it is very dangerous.

call! ! !

A burning sensation came from her arm; Hermes was injured.

The ground around them was also torn open with cracks, and it was made of blue bricks and large stones. If Hermes hadn't dodged quickly, his hand might have been on the ground.

"Is the sight of sex domineering?"

Most glanced at the wound on Hermes' arm, pondered for a moment, and then sneered.

To survive so many of his attacks with only minor injuries, he couldn't think of any other power besides Observation Haki.

Before coming to the Kingdom of Prodens, he, Scythe Killer Most, had also sailed the seas. He wasn't exactly a worldly-wise pirate, but he wasn't the kind of country bumpkin either.

The enemies he had encountered in the past were not without Observation Haki, but they all died under his wind blades in the end.

So it's nothing.

"Wind Blade Flurry."

A new wave of attacks is coming.

Moster swung his hands even faster.

The dense, scythe-like wind blades, like an invisible swarm of bees, enveloped Hermes all at once. At such a density, even those with Observation Haki would find it impossible to evade them.

No wonder Most was so confident.

Sometimes Observation Haki is indeed a bug, but if there are enough attacks, and they are dense enough, suppressing all room for dodging, then even if you can detect the attack trajectory, it won't help.
