One Piece: Ascending the Divine Path

Chapter 74 Where Did the Speed ​​Bumps Come From? (3K)

Knight stood atop the palace, looking down at the city that had become a mess.

Flames spread everywhere, and large areas of buildings collapsed.

Screams and wails filled the air.

Did I arrive too late despite rushing?

I've become Xiao Yan.

However, Zephyr-sensei, what happened to the tacit understanding between the great pirates and the government?

Where is Mo?

As the smoke in the sky gradually dissipated, Knight looked up at the figure with black wings flapping in the sky not far away.

I've never heard of Jhin being here, Zephyr-sensei.

What is the world government's intelligence system doing?

There is.

Knight turned his head and looked in another direction not far away at the figure holding a longbow on the roof of that house.

Paris, a high-ranking official under Wang Zhimo and a skilled archer.

With a bounty of 690 million Berries, this Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user, whose aiming ability is so strong that once their gaze locks onto a target, will be able to hit it, unless the attack is intercepted.

Below, in the palace, the king, who had been staring blankly at Knight's retreating figure, suddenly said in a trembling voice, "I know him! I know him! He's Brigadier General Knight!"

"This country can be saved—"

The words of excitement were stuck in his throat.

Even if it's the Navy's rising star, Commodore Knight, facing two monsters, King and Paris, would he really have a chance of winning?

Brigadier General Knight, can you turn this around?

As Knight sized up the two pirates, King also silently watched Knight.

"That brat under Zephyr's command?"

He was very impressed with Knight.

Whether it was their first meeting on Parrete Island or the numerous newspaper reports about this kid later on, it made Jin realize that this brat's strength was extraordinary and that he was a well-deserved super rookie in the Navy.

In Jin's mind, among the younger generation on the high seas, only his own clansman and the escaped Yamato could be compared to this kid.

"Oh! I know you!"

Paris, watching Knight with interest, said, "The so-called future star of the Navy, Thousand Shadow Knight, right? He's just a brat. The Navy has really fallen on hard times, they're even putting on a show for you."

Knight calmly raised his hand and brushed the hair that had fallen to his eyebrows upward, revealing his smooth forehead.

The boy's face was expressionless. "Have you made enough of a ruckus, you stray dogs? You've really underestimated justice."

"Hahaha! Justice!!"

Paris couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Just as I thought, a brat! Hey, Jhin!"

He shouted at Jhin, "Let's deal with this brat first. You or me?"

Jin didn't speak.

Does that idiot Paris think the newspapers are full of nonsense?

Letting these two guys fight each other first isn't a bad idea.

"If it's just the two of you,"

Knight cracked his neck. "There's no difference if we all come at once."

"Oh? I heard something interesting!"

Paris's lips curled into a wider smile. "Are all kids these days this arrogant?"

He slowly drew his bow and nocked an arrow. "Then let me teach you the survival rules of this ocean!"

Jhin did not react at all.

Knight's lips curled upwards. "How pathetic."

The next instant, he was launched into the air.

Paris had activated his ability again, a crosshair appearing in his eyes, and an invisible gun was already aimed at Knight.

He couldn't dodge the next arrow!

but.

A series of afterimages suddenly flew out from Knight's body.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of Knights had already covered a small part of the sky.

"What?"

Paris's eyes widened instantly, and the crosshair in his eyes disappeared.

A clone?

So many clones!

Are you kidding me? This completely suppresses his abilities.

His ability requires him to lock onto the target with his gaze before he can activate it.

But now, who should we lock onto?

At the same moment, Jin's expression also suddenly became somewhat serious.

He's nothing like that arrogant guy, Paris.

Jhin knew that Knight had the ability to create clones, after all, his nickname was Thousand Shadows.

But he never expected that the clone created by this brat of a navy would be so indistinguishable from his Observation Haki!

No wonder that kid said that even if the two of them went together, it would be the same!

If you can't even distinguish his clones, how are you supposed to fight him?

Paris was clearly panicked at this point, and he quickly stepped back by stomping on the roof.

but.

"Want to compete with me in shaving and moonwalking?"

Hundreds of Knights spoke in unison.

Immediately, these figures flashed out like lightning, their speed far surpassing that of Paris.

Of course, Knight wouldn't be this fast without using projection.

But it doesn't matter, since it's just an illusion, of course we can make them as fast as we want.

In the blink of an eye, figures surrounded Paris from all directions.

"Are you kidding me!"

Paris, who had just been arrogant and cocky, cried out in surprise.

The eyes cannot distinguish between the real and the fake, the ears cannot distinguish between the real and the fake, and even the Observation Haki cannot tell the difference!

How could this brat's abilities be so terrifying!

It's clearly just a clone!

"Go to hell!"

Paris gritted his teeth and kept drawing his bow and nocking arrows, the black arrows easily piercing through one figure after another.

But it's all meaningless; it's all an illusion.

At this moment, the phantoms were about to surround him.

"Don't come any closer!!"

Paris displayed the same expression as Bu Jingyun, wielding his longbow to slash at the approaching figure.

"Finger gun - One-shot technique".

"Ugh!"

Paris suddenly screamed, his body arching like a shrimp as dark fingers pierced his chest, tearing open a gash in his back and spurting blood.

Jin, watching from afar, had his pupils contract.

They need to be re-evaluated; Yamato is no match for this brat!

Moreover, even his own clansman could only rely on absolute defense to deal with this brat.

"A serious punch!"

Knight instantly pulled back his right hand, clenched his fist, and unleashed a surge of dark, domineering electric arcs.

"You brat!"

Paris, who had suffered a severe injury, was still spitting out blood, but he knew that if he didn't fight desperately now, he would be finished!

He brandished his longbow, the sharp bow arm slashing towards Knight.

However, Knight raised his left hand and grabbed the blade.

Paris stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

It's not just about ability, it's about such a powerful and domineering presence!

That brat!

"I said it before, it's truly pathetic to be a weak person who can't see the world clearly."

boom!

Without any mercy, a punch slammed hard into Paris's face.

Black arcs of electricity crackled, accompanied by a sharp cracking sound as Paris's face caved in, blood splattering along with shattered teeth.

Whoosh!

Paris fell like a cannonball.

The evaluation is that it is not as good as Xiaoming's level.

After the ability becomes ineffective, it's just a pure speed bump.

The streets have been reduced to ruins.

A medic, sweating profusely, was trying to stop the bleeding from Lieutenant General Johnny's left shoulder, which had been shot off by an arrow from Paris.

But the wound was too large; the arm was completely severed as a result, making it very difficult to stop the bleeding.

The vice admiral was pale, and even though he was severely injured, he still stared intently at the distant sky.

There, figures surrounded someone.

"What exactly is that?"

The major admiral stationed at the base near this country couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Who's fighting the pirates?"

"It's Brigadier General Knight."

Lieutenant General Johnny struggled to speak, "Professor Zephyr said he would come to our aid, and it seems he made it in time—"

"That Brigadier General Knight?"

The Major General was overjoyed.

Commodore Knight is widely recognized as a future star of the Navy!

"but,"

The major general was also somewhat worried, "He's all alone, facing the same situation!"

A dark shadow streaked through the air and crashed into the ruins not far away, sending debris flying everywhere.

As the smoke gradually dissipated, the surrounding sailors were astonished to see a figure lying in a huge crater.

That's Paris!

"A navy officer exclaimed."

"this!"

Seeing Paris's face contorted and his limbs trembling as he tried to stand, the Major General almost thought he was hallucinating.

feel.

That was a high-ranking official under Wang Zhi!

"Is he in seastone shackles? Arrest him."

Another figure descended from the sky, placing a foot on Paris's chest.

With the ground trembling violently, Paris finally fell completely silent.

All the sailors stared blankly at the figure, at the fluttering coat of justice.

After a brief moment of surprise, he exclaimed, "Brigadier General Knight! I have it right here!"

The major general showed immense respect to Knight, whose rank was one level lower than his own. He even bowed slightly as he walked to Knight's side and personally knelt down to handcuff Paris.

"That's Brigadier General Knight!"

"That's incredible! He defeated Paris so quickly!"

"He truly deserves to be called the Navy's rising star! He's destined to become a future admiral!"

The navy personnel were extremely excited.

Knight sensed someone watching him, so he turned to look at the seriously injured vice admiral.

Lieutenant General Johnny supported himself with one hand on the ground and sat up straight despite the medic's attempts to stop him. He looked at Knight and said, "I'm sorry, Brigadier General Knight, there's nothing I can do to help."

"It may be shameful to say this, but please protect this country!"

"Um."

Knight nodded slightly, then looked up at the embers in the sky.

Jhin looked down at Knight.

then.

call!

With a flap of its black wings, Ember instantly soared into the distance.

Now that Paris has been killed, his goal has been achieved.

There's absolutely no need to fight this kid in the navy.

Knight's lips twitched.

What about the Beasts Pirates' reckless nature?

You think you can just run away like that?

"Storm Kick - White Thunder!"

A laser-like vacuum wave shot through the air.

As Jin walked away, he suddenly turned around and shattered the sharp slash with a single blow.

He looked down, and Knight sped towards him, stepping on the air.

"Do you really want to die?"

Jin's eyes were cold and sharp.

This kid is indeed very capable, but there's nothing we can do about him.

What's the harm in just standing there and letting him hit me?

Knight remained silent, simply continuing his pursuit.

It's great that it's Jhin who's here.

A formidable opponent spurred me to break through with overwhelming force.
