One Piece: The user of the Nen-Nen Fruit, who overturned the sea.

Kizaru appeared hundreds of meters away, his hands crossed, golden light shimmering at his fingertips.

"The Eight-Foot Jewel!"

Countless light bullets shot out from his fingertips, pouring down like a torrential rain!

Each flare carries terrifying destructive power, enough to sink a warship.

Roy expanded his psychic shield to its fullest extent, completely enveloping the Ark Maxim.

The light projectiles struck the shield, exploding into bursts of golden light.

The explosion was deafening, and the sea was churned with waves.

But the shield remained firmly in place, without even a crack.

Kizaru's expression finally showed a subtle change.

He knew Roy was strong, but he didn't expect him to be this strong.

The Yasakani no Magatama is one of his strongest ranged attacks.

It hit Roy's shield like a tickle.

"Looks like I need to get serious," Kizaru muttered.

His figure flashed and disappeared again.

The next second, he appeared to the side of Ark Proverb, sweeping his right leg horizontally.

"Lightning-speed kick!"

This kick was even faster than before, and golden light particles frantically gathered on his foot.

The dazzling golden light blinded the people on the Ark of Proverbs.

With his eyes closed, Roy sensed an unexpectedly high energy fluctuation emanating from Kizaru's feet.

"Tezzolo! Protect everyone!"

Roy gave the order, and instead of using a psychic shield to withstand the attack, he activated his psychic field, and in a flash, disappeared from the ship.

The next instant, he appeared beside Kizaru.

Black Blade Autumn Water was drawn from its sheath, its blade crackling with dark red arcs of electricity.

With a single slash!

The terrifying power caused Kizaru, who was still gathering his strength, to shrink his pupils and ultimately choose to abandon his attack. His three-meter-tall body transformed into light particles, narrowly avoiding the attack.

The blade of Qiu Shui grazed his shoulder, and the resulting gust of wind stung his face.

"So fast." Kizaru retreated dozens of meters and touched his shoulder.

The clothes were ripped open, and faint traces of blood were seeping out.

Roy sheathed his sword and looked at him.

"Again."

Kizaru took a deep breath and put away his lazy expression.

He knew he had met his match today, not to mention that there was Tezzolo on the ship whose speed was no less than his.

But there's no other way; we have to hold on.

This will buy time for the warships to land on the island first.

Kizaru attacked again, this time not by getting close, but by releasing a light blast from a distance.

One after another, densely packed, like rain.

He used the extreme speed of the Glint-Glint Fruit to constantly change positions in the air and attack from different angles.

Roy's psychic shield could block it, but each time he was hit, it would consume his psychic energy.

Moreover, Kizaru's attacks were too dense, and the shield needed to be maintained continuously, making it impossible to concentrate on anything else.

"Boss! This guy is stalling for time," Tesoro shouted to Roy.

Roy knew that, of course.

Kizaru's goal was not to defeat him, but to stall him.

As long as the Ark Maxim doesn't reach Minion Island, the Navy will have a chance to get the Operation Fruit first.

"Tezzolo!" Roy called out.

"exist!"

"You go after the warship. Leave this to me."

Tesoro nodded, maneuvered the Ark into the sea, and leaped out of the Ark Proverb.

His body crackled with lightning as he transformed into a bolt of lightning and charged toward the five warships.

Kizaru's expression changed, and he tried to intercept him, but Roy's Nen had already entangled him.

"Your opponent is me."

The invisible psychic power transformed into thousands of fine needles, piercing towards Kizaru.

Kizaru had to dodge and couldn't afford to be distracted by Tesoro.

In that brief delay, Tesoro had already reached the airspace above the warship.

"Thunder Welcome·Ten Thousand Thunders!"

boom--!!!

Countless bolts of lightning descended from the sky, striking the five warships!

The ordinary soldiers on the warship screamed in terror and scattered in all directions. Only a few officers remained, their feet moving with Moonwalk, Armament Haki gathering on their blades, attempting to block Tesoro's attack.

But there were too many lightning bolts; there was no way to avoid them.

"Damn it!" Kizaru cursed, wanting to go back to help.

Roy's figure flashed through the air a few times before appearing in front of him, his black sword, Autumn Water, held horizontally in front of him.

"I told you, your opponent is me."

Kizaru gritted his teeth and had no choice but to stop.

He knew that today's battle would be difficult.

.....................

Minion Island.

As night fell, the town was illuminated by dim, yellow lights.

The pirates were still patrolling, completely unaware that danger was approaching.

Rosinandi crouched at the edge of the dense forest, his fingers tapping lightly on the ground.

The power of the Silence-Silence Fruit completely isolated him from the area where he was hiding.

People outside couldn't hear their voices, but they could clearly hear the noises outside.

"They've changed shifts," Rosinandi murmured.

He observed for a whole day and finally figured out the pirates' patrol patterns.

Shifts change every two hours, with a gap of about three minutes between shifts.

three minutes.

enough.

Rosinandi turned around and looked at Rosinandi behind him.

"Stay here. No matter what happens, don't come out."

Luo raised her head, looked at him, and moved her lips as if to say something.

Rosinante rubbed his head and smiled.

"Wait for me to come back."

He turned and disappeared into the night.

Luo squatted in the corner, his fists clenched so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh.

Mr. Corazon...

Under the cover of night, Rosinandi stealthily made his way into the town.

His footsteps were very light, as light as a cat's.

With the power of the Silence-Silence Fruit fully activated, any sound within a ten-meter radius around him was completely blocked.

Footsteps, breathing, heartbeats—all disappeared.

He moved silently in the darkness like a ghost.

At a checkpoint on the outskirts of the town, two pirates are smoking.

"You're saying this surgical result is really worth five billion?"

"Who knows? Anyway, it's none of our business, as long as we get the money."

"Too."

The two were chatting and didn't notice the black figure behind them at all.

Rosinandi passed by them silently.

He infiltrated the town and made his way towards the center of the stronghold.

Based on observations during the day, the surgical results should be stored in the stone house in the center of the stronghold.

There were four pirates guarding the entrance, and it was unknown how many people were inside.

Forcing our way in won't work; we need to create chaos.

Rosinandi pulled out a few smoke bombs from his pocket, and then pulled out a few small bombs.

This is what he prepared before setting off.

Pull the safety pin and throw it.

boom--!!!

The explosion was deafening, and flames shot into the sky!

Of course, thanks to the Silent Fruit, the sound of the explosion was blocked.

But the fire and the tremors cannot be stopped.

The pirates immediately erupted in chaos.

"What's going on?!"

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"Go check it out!"

Pirates poured out from all directions and rushed towards the explosion site.

The four guards at the gate also moved; two stayed behind, while the other two ran off to check the situation.

Rosinandi seized the opportunity and bypassed them from the side.

He flashed into the stone house.

The room was bigger than I had imagined.

Several boxes were piled up in the corner, and maps and bottles of wine were on the table.

A pirate was sitting at a table drinking when he saw Rosinante rush in and paused for a moment.

"you--"
