This rabble didn't form a formation after landing. They followed behind the boss at the front. The pirates with high bounties were left to the bosses, while the smaller pirates with million-dollar bounties were enough for a group of people to have a good meal. Following behind the big boss and getting some soup was simply wonderful.
Van Augur, the most perceptive member of the group, suddenly spoke up: "Someone is coming from the air."
Was it that guy who can turn into a giant who flew above everyone's heads to turn into a giant and crush them to death?
This is a very unreliable strategy. How many of the 5000+ bounty hunters can he possibly kill? Once the giant is surrounded, the Blackbeard Pirates' officers will easily take him down.
Luffy used all his strength in this Gum-Gum Rocket attack. Even Eren, who was in the air, didn't know how many ribs he had broken, but he achieved his ultimate goal.
With three yellow Rumble Balls in his mouth, Allen closed his eyes the moment he bit into the pills. He saw his friend Armin and Bertholdt's image; these people became his strength.
A golden sun suddenly appeared in the sky. The members closest to the sun were instantly vaporized. The bounty hunters who were farther away were hit in the face by the light. It was too late for them to run. A shockwave that could tear everything apart spread outwards.
The violent explosion created a mushroom cloud, affecting even the Straw Hat crew who were furthest away. The shockwave created a fierce wind that swept across the land, and they had to cling tightly to the rock wall, otherwise they didn't know where they would be thrown.
"That's foul power! Taking three Rumble Balls right off the bat!"
"Can anyone clearly see what's happening right now?"
The wind was so strong that no one could hear what they were saying. They just hoped the explosion would end soon; it was comparable to a small nuclear bomb.
A red giant, never before seen, stood up in a sea of red. At this moment, the giant's height had reached 100 meters, and the Colossal Titan's pointed ears proved that this was still Eren in disguise.
"Armin, is this the scene you witnessed back then?"
The giant's face resembled that of a compassionate Buddha, looking down at everything beneath its feet. The scene after the violent explosion could only be described as hell.
The entire coastline was sheared off by several meters by the explosion, and a raging sea of fire erupted in the blast zone, creating a stark contrast with the still-white Drum Island on the other side.
The sea had become a graveyard for ships. None of the Baroque Works' ships were intact; the vast majority had been reduced to burning fragments. As for the five thousand elite soldiers, not a single one could be seen. Indeed, the weak didn't even have the chance to leave behind a corpse.
"Huh?" It looks like there's a sand dune moving on the ground. Why is there sand on Winter Island?
More and more sand emerged from the ground, quickly covering an area of more than ten meters. A dozen people emerged from the sand circle, most of their clothes were tattered, and they looked quite disheveled.
"He almost killed me; what incredible explosive power!"
"It's burning hot, but thankfully this thing saved my life!"
Crocodile is a Logia-type Sand-Sand Fruit user. The moment the sun approached, his entire body and the ground beneath his feet turned into sand, pulling his officers and members of the Blackbeard Pirates into the sand.
However, sand is a good conductor of heat, so this Shichibukai could only keep turning into sand to avoid the deadly explosion. The group burrowed down at least several hundred meters.
Crocodile didn't care, but the others couldn't stay underground for long; those he brought down with him almost suffocated in the sand.
However, the power of the explosion still exceeded their expectations. They had never seen such a strong explosion in their lives. They wondered how much explosives would be needed to reproduce this explosion, and what an astronomical number that would be.
"It's a real shame they're all dead. Baroque Works can never muster that many people again."
Robin covered her exposed skin as she was pulled underground. The heat from the sand burned holes in her clothes, leaving them riddled with holes. This gamble had wiped out all their capital, and Baroque Studio was now practically defunct.
The giant, over a hundred meters tall, raised its fleshy leg, its foot stomping down on the survivors like a mountain. These strong survivors would not sit idly by and wait to die.
"Allen, be my crew member, Dark Cave."
A darkness capable of devouring everything emerged from Teach's body, and when the colossal giant's feet touched the darkness, a powerful suction force emanated from it.
Sucked down by the power of darkness, as if falling into some kind of alternate dimension, the eerie darkness climbed up the giant's legs like smoke. Teach was about to completely pull this colossal giant, which was over a hundred meters tall, into his own darkness.
Eren was unable to control the Titan to escape this terrifying suction force, and this terrible ability also prevented him from using his hardening ability; otherwise, he would have given this fat black man a taste of the spikes long ago.
Having no choice but to abandon its current body, the Colossal Titan could no longer maintain its original form after detaching from it. Its hundred-meter-tall flesh and bones began to vaporize, slowly disappearing into the darkness.
Chapter 64 Kizaru in Action
Faced with overwhelming power, shouting slogans is futile; the Straw Hat crew is no match for the invading enemy.
When Allen tried to eat the Rumble Ball again, Van Oka shot him in the arm that was holding the medicine, the super long-range and accurate sniping gave him no chance.
He could only transform into the Attack Titan to fight, and in his Titan form, his opponent was Crocodile, a Shichibukai who played with sand. Once his body became elemental, most of Eren's attacks would miss, and the weapons created by hardening his body had no effect on him. This is the awkwardness of not having Haki.
Crocodile's method of dealing with Eren was simple: he could just throw sand at Eren to dry the Titans' bodies, forcing Eren to constantly change Titan bodies. The two fought so fiercely that it was difficult to determine a winner for a while.
Luffy was the first to arrive at the battlefield and was immediately targeted by Blackbeard. Once the Dark-Dark Fruit touched Straw Hat Luffy, his rubber ability would be disabled, and he would be met with Teach's huge fists, which would hit his face repeatedly. Without his rubber ability, he could only passively take the beating.
Just as Teach managed to create some distance between himself and the fat, dark-skinned man, he activated his Dark Water ability and pulled Luffy back into the water, knocking him to the ground with a single punch. The man was enjoying the thrill of unilaterally crushing the weak with his fists. "Straw Hat Boy's pirate game is over for today."
Zoro engaged in a swordsmanship duel with Mr. 1, but the green-haired assassin's three-sword style was no match for the Quick-Slash Fruit user, who left many wounds on him. Zoro gradually fell into a disadvantageous position and was suppressed by the Baroque Works members.
Gizas Burgess finds Sanji, a chef skilled in hand-to-hand combat, and the fighting champion gets excited and begins to unilaterally beat up the lecherous chef.
Sanji's prized legs, and the physical techniques he displayed, were seen by Blackbeard's crew as lacking both speed and power. In a contest of kicks and punches, the cook was the first to lose to his opponent, with both of his legs being broken on the spot by Gizas Burgess.
With his white wings, Sheriff Lafitte flew through the air and located the Going Merry's hiding place, pointing Doc Q and Van Augur in the direction of their prey.
Poison Q is a Paramecia-type Disease-Disease Fruit user who is skilled at developing all sorts of bizarre diseases and is very interested in the little reindeer who will become a famous doctor in the future.
At this point, Chopper was more skilled in physical combat, but he was completely outmaneuvered by his enemy in medical duels. A disease that turns males into females instantly transformed him into a female deer.
After transforming into a doe, her soft, limp fists felt like a massage to Venom Q. Then, after being struck by a weakness affliction, the doe lost her fighting ability and collapsed in the vast white snow.
Van Augur dealt with Usopp with a single shot, instantly taking down the novice sniper. Nami and Princess Vivi, who had no fighting ability, could only obediently follow the enemy's orders under the threat of his gun, and were herded towards the main battlefield.
When Crocodile saw Princess Vivi, he used the Desert Sunflower technique on the ground, continuously draining the moisture from the ground beneath the Attack Titan's feet, creating a large sandstorm that trapped the Titan.
Even though Eren kept switching between Titan bodies, he could never leave the quicksand area. The strange power was that the area of quicksand was getting bigger and bigger, and since the Attack Titans couldn't fly, their living space was constantly being compressed.
Crocodile used his golden hook weapon to pull Princess Vivi in front of him and said with a smile, "Your Highness, I really underestimated you for being able to infiltrate my workshop for two years. I will make sure you and your father meet in the underworld as soon as possible. You can go first today."
Crocodile gripped Princess Vivi's neck, lifting the Alabasta princess into the air. He could have simply drained the moisture from her body, which would have been the easiest and quickest way.
Unexpectedly, he enjoyed this feeling of slowly suffocating his prey. Princess Vivi, in agony, kept moving her limbs, but she could only breathe less and less, and her consciousness gradually became more and more blurred.
In her final moments, she thought of the deceased Icarus, and of her father, King Cobra, who had given her life and raised her. She thought that she might never see Bell and Jaka again. Tears of regret welled up in Princess Vivi's eyes, and she stopped struggling, preparing to face death.
"Crocodile, this is a crime! How could you kill a princess? The Seven Warlords of the Sea are truly terrifying!"
The lewd voice and a laser beam arrived simultaneously. This laser attack precisely interrupted the attack. Crocodile controlled Princess Vivi's arm, preventing the poor princess from suffocating. After being rescued, she lay on the ground, gasping for air. Any slower and her throat would have been choked.
The man in the yellow plaid shirt, embodying justice, Crocodile knew at a glance that he was someone Crocodile couldn't afford to mess with.
"Borsalino, I am a Shichibukai. Even if you are a Marine Admiral, do you really dare to attack me?"
With a lewd expression, the admiral put his hands in his pockets and tried to justify his behavior, saying, "Alabasta is one of the member states of the World Government, and Nefertari Vivi is the only heir to this country. You can't treat her like this, Crocodile."
"Lightning Speed Kick"
Photons gathered on his calves and wrapped in Armament Haki, allowing him to arrive at the side of the Seven Warlords of the Sea at the speed of light. He then delivered a sweeping kick to the stomach of Crocodile, who dared to be arrogant in front of an Admiral, sending him flying.
The kick was delivered in a very coincidental direction, right in front of Blackbeard Teach. Since the Dark-Dark Fruit cannot be used to transform into an element, Crocodile, who was flying towards him like a cannonball, collided with him and was sent flying.
He accidentally helped Straw Hat Luffy escape from Teach's fist.
"I'm so sorry, I missed just now," Admiral Kizaru said, scratching his head and putting on an innocent expression.
Nami crouched down, pretending the Marine Admiral couldn't see her, walked up to Princess Vivi, and pulled her up. The two women prepared to leave this troublesome place.
Kizaru ignored the two of them, raised his hand and pointed at Zoro, preparing to unleash a laser beam, "I remember you're a pirate too, right?"
The laser shot towards Zoro's back, but by sheer luck, he dodged it. The Marine Admiral's attack pierced through Mr. 1's body, instantly injuring the Quick-Cut Fruit user and rendering him unable to fight.
"Oops, sorry, I missed."
Several supersonic bullets pierced through Kizaru's body, causing zero damage to the Marine Admiral. This sniper exposed his position, so he has no one to blame but himself.
As a laser beam destroyed Van Oka's sniper rifle, a golden laser pierced the man's chest, rendering him incapacitated as well.
Seeing the situation was bad, Gizzas Bages tried to turn and run away, but his burly body only ran a few steps before he was hit by two lasers, blood gushing from his chest as he collapsed in the snow.
"They're all terrifying monsters!"
Borsalino is really making his move today. Whether you're a Shichibukai or Whitebeard's rebellious son, he's the only one left standing on this shore.
Chapter 65 Taking the Fruit
The strength of a naval admiral is not something these people can easily provoke. After experiencing it firsthand, the two groups that were just fighting to the death became obedient.
"Arrest all the pirates and take them back. As for why Your Highness associates with pirates, let your father explain to the World Government."
After Kizaru gave the order, a group of Marines dressed in righteous uniforms emerged from behind him. Those with fighting ability, like Luffy and his crew, fought against the Marine grunts, while the Admiral simply watched from the sidelines without intervening.
Just as Luffy and his crew were locked in a fierce battle with the Marines, a towering flame swept towards the Marines, instantly disrupting the battlefield.
"What terrifying flames! And incredibly fast!"
The admiral's figure moved so fast that it left afterimages. At a speed that could not be detected by the naked eye, everything slowed down in Admiral Kizaru's vision. He instantly brought his hundreds of subordinates, who were about to be attacked by the flames, back to the warship.
"Ace!? Ace, what are you doing here?"
Luffy recognized the person who saved him at a glance. Wasn't this his sworn brother? If it weren't for the familiar hat he was wearing and his freckled face, he really wouldn't have recognized him after all these years.
"I saw what happened on the light screen. I was worried something had happened to you, so I came to Drum Island to check on you. Luckily, I arrived in time."
Ace walked over to Luffy and gave his seriously injured younger brother a big hug. It must have been tough for him to encounter so many powerful enemies so soon after setting sail.
Borsalino pushed up his sunglasses and squinted at the scene of the two brothers' deep affection, but he had to interrupt, "So it's Fire Fist Ace. I didn't expect Straw Hat Luffy to be your brother. That's quite a surprise. I'll keep you here today too."
"laser"
"Fire Fist"
Flames and lasers clashed, and for a moment Admiral Kizaru was at a disadvantage. The flames forcefully pushed the single laser beam back. Could it be because Admiral Kizaru was standing on the left side to counter the beam?
The flames reached Borsalino's location, and his body actively transformed into elemental form. To outsiders, it appeared that the general was surrounded by fire, a situation that seemed extremely critical!
After Eren escaped, he transformed into the Attack Titan and carried the Going Merry to the beach. Luffy's crew was already on the ship, and Princess Vivi was also on the ship with Icarus's corpse, waiting for Luffy and his brother to board and escape. At this time, Borsalino was still engulfed in flames.
"Gone? He got away again?"
