One Piece: Starting with Breathing Techniques

Seeing the approaching Marines, Capone Bege's heart sank to the bottom.

Damn it, did I still miss it?

Rear Admiral Parsons has already boarded the Liuhua. The most urgent task is to prevent him from damaging the ship!

Capone Bege rushed forward, his right hand outstretched, and a pale red castle domain spread out.

The next moment, Parsons' body was suddenly sucked into the castle.

In addition, most of the ship's combat crew were also sucked into the castle by Capone Bege.

Meanwhile, the other crew members responsible for piloting the Ryuga remained in their positions, sweating profusely as they steered the Ryuga away from Vila Island.

Robin, looking worried, was casually tossed back into the cabin of the Ruka.

Having done all this, Capone Bege leaped toward the dock, shouting:

"Get the Ryuga away from this damned place right now!"

"quick!"

He tumbled and somersaulted in the air, his right hand outstretched towards the sea.

A dark, miniature cannon barrel emerged from his hand, and with a 'bang,' a miniature cannonball was fired.

After the cannonball pierced through the pale red castle area, it suddenly returned to its original size and crashed into the sea between the Ryuga and the dock with a strong wind.

boom!

The explosion sent up a huge shockwave, and the powerful impact propelled the Ryuga away from Vila Island.

The next second, Capone Bege landed lightly on the dock, facing a horde of pursuing naval forces. He was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed.

A faint rumbling sound was emanating from the castle within his body, as if someone was wreaking havoc inside.

He quickly shook himself and drove Parsons out of the castle.

After passing through the pale red castle area, Parsons adjusted his body in mid-air and landed steadily in front of the group of marines.

His hands, which had transformed into giant golden hammers, were still covered with stone chips as he looked at Capone Bege, who was on high alert, with disdain.

"What's wrong, little mouse? Not planning to escape anymore?"

"I thought you would keep me in your castle forever."

Capone Begi was pale, and his internal organs were churning with a chaotic sensation.

Parson wreaks havoc inside his inner castle, and the damage to the castle is simultaneously reflected in his physical body.

The current situation left him no time for careful consideration. In order to buy more time for the Ryuga to escape, Capone Bege immediately made up his mind.

Then, to the horror of the navy and civilians in the distance, a giant, mobile castle appeared out of thin air on the dock, standing majestically.

On the top of that fortress, which was tens of meters high, a pair of cold, giant eyes looked down at the group of navy men below.

"Big Boss Form!"

Without hesitation, Capone Bege unleashed his strongest form right away.

After all, he was facing elite naval forces from the Grand Line, and he couldn't afford to be careless in the slightest!

Black gun barrels emerged from around the castle, aimed at the navy soldiers waiting below.

The combatants absorbed into Capone Bege's body were already prepared, waiting only for Capone Bege's order to open fire.

"Fire!!!"

A deep voice came from the top of the castle, its cold tone devoid of any emotion.

"Yes, sir Becky!"

In an instant, countless gun muzzles spat out tongues of fire, drawing countless pale white bullet trajectories in the air.

Bullets rained down on the group of sailors.

"Be prepared for attacks, follow me and we'll push forward to destroy this castle!"

Parsons sneered, unconcerned, and didn't take the barrage of comments seriously.

As a major general with extensive combat experience, although he only stayed on that ship for a short time, he had already figured out the strength of the people on board.

Placed in the Grand Line, where powerful beings abound, they would be nothing more than a bunch of grunts!

Only the young man with a fierce face and a cigar in his mouth was passable.

As for the other crew members, let alone mastering Haki, they are probably just ordinary people with slightly stronger physical abilities!

Moreover, based on his observations, the quality of the enemy's weapons and equipment was far inferior to that of his own.

Under these circumstances, such feeble firepower would not be able to harm him in the slightest!

Parsons raised his golden double hammers, attempting to get closer to the fortress while bearing the bullets.

Once you enter his attack range, the battle will become his domain, turning into a one-sided massacre!

Seeing this, the other navy personnel followed Parsons' lead and charged towards Capone Bege, who had become the leader.

However, the next second, a sharp pain came from Parsons' hand, the pain so intense it went deep into his bones, causing his pupils to tremble.

Wait, why?!

wrong!!

However, Parsons' excellent qualities as a rear admiral prevented him from being defeated by the excruciating pain. He quickly looked up to observe, but inadvertently caught a glimpse of that pale red area, which had somehow been stained with pitch black.

That color...

Armament Haki?!

Could it be?!

Parson stared intently at the bullets hurtling out, which, after passing through the black and red area, were imbued with Armament Haki and attacked them.

Those ordinary bullets could actually be affected by that domain and imbued with Armament Haki?!

Parsons's face was grim; his previous composure and ease had vanished, replaced by a sense of gravity and unease.

He was confident that he could defend against ordinary bullets by using the double hammers transformed from his Hammer-Hammer Fruit ability, but what if he had to withstand bullets coated with Armament Haki...?

He suddenly realized something, his eyes widened in fury, and he turned around to roar at his subordinates.

"No, get out of the way!"

"The bullet is faulty! It's Armament Haki!!!"

However, the belated awakening came too late; what was happening before his eyes made his blood almost freeze.

As a torrent of Armament Haki bullets rained down, his familiar subordinates fell in droves like wheat being harvested by a sickle.

The dull thuds of his men falling to the ground echoed like thunder in Parsons' mind.

He suddenly looked at the fortress, his eyes bloodshot, veins bulging on his forehead from extreme anger, and he almost roared out a sentence.

"How...how dare you?!"

Capone Bege scoffed, "What? You call killing someone else's men 'justice'? And they can't fight back?"

"Keep firing!"

More bullets pierced through the black and red castle territory, raining down like an impenetrable barrage.

Looking at the battle situation before him, Capone Bege showed no joy or pride, but rather an almost cold composure and calmness as he methodically issued orders to his men in the castle.

After witnessing firsthand Kilo's rapid growth, Capone Bege, who had always considered himself a genius, was greatly stimulated.

In the West Blue, he was an unparalleled genius and a rare Devil Fruit user.

But after seeing a monster like Kiro, his pride was deeply hurt.

He could accept being inferior to Kilo, but he couldn't accept being useless and slowly becoming a tool that could only provide intelligence and funds!

At the very least, he needs to be able to keep up with Kilo's pace of progress!
