One Piece: Starting from Obtaining the Float-Float Fruit

After leaving Mangrove No. 13, Anya immediately told Xiong about his plan.

"I need to pretend to be betrayed by Mihawk and put these fake seastone handcuffs on me. Then you have to pretend you don't know anything and fight Mihawk!"

After Mihawk defeated you and me, he handed me over to the Navy and then ran away with the money. I'm going to the Holy Land, Mary Geoise!

Of course, if we can defeat Kizaru, we don't need to carry out this plan!

Upon hearing that Anya actually wanted to go to Mary Geoise, Kuma immediately scolded, "Impossible! If you go there, you won't be able to come back. I won't let you in. I'll stop Kizaru. You can run away on your own."

"Don't worry, I will definitely come back, believe me! Besides, with our abilities, we are no match for Kizaru's speed! And I can't let you sacrifice yourselves in vain."

Both the Float-Float Fruit and the Paw-Paw Fruit have some ability to escape, but the Float-Float Fruit is just too slow.

Although the Paw Paw Fruit seems to be able to make people teleport, in essence, the person being knocked away is still flying in the sky.

Compared to the Glint-Glint Fruit, if Kizaru really wanted to chase them, they definitely wouldn't be able to escape.

"Attention, here it comes!"

Just as Anya spoke up, Kizaru arrived beside them with Chaton and Momousagi.

Have you ever been kicked by light?

Anya's eyes glowed red, foreseeing the future! But before he could react, a giant, glowing foot kicked him in the waist.

Seeing Anya being kicked away, Mihawk also began to attack Kizaru.

Xiong then shouted, "Anya! Are you alright?"

"It's okay, damn, that really hurt. Luckily I used Armament Haki to defend myself, otherwise I would have been crippled."

Anya crawled up from the ruins, clutching her back, and Momousagi immediately drew her sword, ready to kill her.

"Hey, miss, don't be in such a hurry. Didn't I return the Celestial Dragons to you? Why are you still chasing me?"

Anya used her twin swords to block Momousagi's attack.

"Stop talking nonsense, you know what crime you've committed!" Momousagi lunged forward and unleashed a sword slash!

On the other side, Kizaru also started to get serious.

"The Kusanagi Sword!"

Kizaru clasped his hands together, and a lightsaber appeared.

"Be careful, I'm also a master swordsman."

Mihawk smirked. He hadn't had enough of fighting Rayleigh, and Kizaru was also a master swordsman.

Mihawk felt that there was no one he couldn't beat who used a sword!

However, Chaton on the other side was in a terrible state. Kuma's Devil Fruit ability was too abnormal, and he suffered a lot from a barrage of compressed air cannons!

"Dragon's Might! Imperial Palace Scroll!"

Anya slammed her hand on the ground, causing the earth to churn, and several ferocious dragon heads surrounded Momousagi.

"Slash Wave!"

Momousagi had to contend with both the relentless attacks of the earth dragon and Anya's sword energy, and for a time she found herself at a disadvantage.

However, Mihawk was overthinking things. Kizaru was not a swordsman at all and could not possibly use only a sword. He used the clone ability and speed of the Glint-Glint Fruit to defeat Mihawk.

"Heavenly Slash!"

"The Eight-Foot Jewel!"

Mihawk coated his sword with Conqueror's Haki, instantly wiping out Kizaru's clones, and also severing all of Kizaru's Yasakani no Tsurugi.

"A eight-foot mirror!"

A flash of golden light appeared, and Mihawk, caught off guard, was kicked away by Kizaru.

However, Mihawk managed to block the kick with his knife just in time, so his injury was not serious.

Seeing Mihawk fly away, Kizaru immediately followed up with several lasers, blasting the entire Mangrove Tree No. 33 in half.

Just as Kizaru was about to go to support Momousagi and Chaton, another sword aura flew over.

Mihawk is such a troublesome guy.

"A chaotic night!"

Their swords clashed again, but this time, Mihawk spoke to Kizaru: "Anya and I are really not related. We just met by chance. I was forced to go along with him in the kidnapping of the Celestial Dragon. If you're willing to put on a show with me, I can help you capture him."

Kizaru was puzzled. This Mihawk looked so handsome and thick-browed, how could he betray his comrades?

However, Kizaru could indeed feel that Mihawk's grip had become much lighter.

Moreover, Mihawk had been active at sea for seven years, while Anya had not appeared for seven years. If Anya and Mihawk were very familiar with each other, then the Navy should have discovered Anya's whereabouts long ago.

Perhaps—Mihawk and Anya have only known each other for a short time!

"Alright, I promise you. As long as you help me capture Anya, I will forgive and forget about you. After all, I only need one person to report back to."

Upon hearing Kizaru's words, Mihawk knew that Anya's plan was likely to succeed.

Mihawk has only just stepped into the threshold of the Emperor-level. He believes that he is not yet able to defeat Kizaru, so he decided to carry out Anya's first plan.

As for why Rayleigh didn't help, he didn't have much interaction with them. Moreover, as the Pirate King's right-hand man, his position was already sensitive. If he openly attacked an admiral, he wouldn't have a good future.

"Bear Impact!"

On the battlefield on Da Xiong's side, the outcome was quickly decided. The current Cha Tun is still far from being a candidate for future general.

After seeing that Chaton had been defeated, Kizaru immediately started acting with Mihawk.

Anya is currently suppressing Momousagi relentlessly. With her Observation Haki that allows her to see into the future and the power of the Float-Float Fruit, Momousagi is basically powerless to fight back.

Just as Anya was about to capture Momousagi, Mihawk was kicked away by Kizaru.

"Mihawk?! Are you alright?"

"Never mind me, focus on the enemy!"

Just as Anya was concerned about Mihawk, Kizaru kicked Anya next to Mihawk once again.

"Damn it, I almost defeated Momousagi!" Anya wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and prepared to fight again.

"Click."

A slight clicking sound came from Anya's wrist.

At the same time, Anya felt a sudden surge of helplessness!

"Mihawk, you?!"

The bag of money, manipulated by Anya, also fell from the sky.

Mihawk adjusted his hat and slowly addressed Kizaru, "The agreement is complete."

Anya turned around in disbelief and yelled, "Mihawk! You bastard, you betrayed me?!"

"Betrayal? No, I had nothing to do with you in the first place. In the end, you destroyed my ship, leaving me nowhere to go, which is why we became in the same boat."

The bear, who had just arrived, was enraged when he saw Anya handcuffed with sea stone handcuffs.

"Mihawk! What are you doing? Bear Charge!!!"

"Heavenly Slash!"

With a single slash, the bear was sent flying backward.

Meanwhile, Kizaru watched silently. Although it was hard to believe, how could a serious man like Mihawk really betray Anya?

What's in it for him?

Before Kizaru could figure it out, Mihawk grabbed the bag full of 200 billion Berries and seven Devil Fruits and immediately fled the scene.

Well, in the end, Mihawk is just a pirate. It's impossible for him not to be tempted by so much money.

Kizaru roughly understood Mihawk's intentions.

This is terrible! So much money has been taken away, but Kizaru has to keep his promise...

Meanwhile, Anya was being held firmly to the ground by Momousagi, with both of his hands cuffed.

"Damn it, Mihawk! I won't let you get away with this!" Anya pressed her face against the dirt, looking in the direction Mihawk had left, her eyes filled with boundless rage.
