Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

“I’ve said it before, if this is all you’re capable of, then the Navy might need to find a new admiral… to replace you!” Reina slowly descended, landing on the bow of the warship, looking directly at Green Bull, and said.

"Looks like I'll be looked down upon if I don't show you my true skills!" Green Bull ripped off his uniform and started to swell up.

"A Zoan-type Devil Fruit user? The Navy is really interesting! The two newly added admirals, one a Paramecia and the other a Zoan, is it because they can't find any Logia-type users?" Reina didn't seem to care when he saw the other party transform.

"Aside from having some advantages in the early stages, Logia-type Devil Fruits are not stronger than Zoan-type and Paramecia-type Devil Fruits later on! Devil Fruit abilities are only one aspect!" After swelling to a height of about ten meters, Green Bull's figure finally stabilized. At this moment, he was no longer in animal form, but in half-beast form.

Because his head still looked like a human's, except that he had an extra horn on his head, but his body had undergone a huge change, and he looked like a spider.

"It seems you don't have an ordinary Zoan-type Devil Fruit ability!" Reina didn't know what kind of Devil Fruit the other party had; his head looked like a cow, but his body looked like a spider.

However, since the opponent had not fully transformed into a beast, it was normal that Reina couldn't tell.

The moment he saw the other party's half-beast form, he thought of artificial Devil Fruits. However, the feeling he got from the other party was definitely not the haphazardly pieced-together feeling of artificial Devil Fruits, but a truly complete whole.

"Zoan type, Ox-Ox Fruit, Mythical Zoan type, Ox-Demon form!" Green Bull didn't keep Reina in suspense and directly told him the name of his fruit.

"Mythical Zoan type - Gyu-oni form?" Reina frowned. Every Zoan-type Mythical Zoan fruit is basically a creature from Japanese mythology, possessing extremely powerful abilities.

However, Reina was unfamiliar with Japanese mythology, so he had no information whatsoever about the so-called Ushioni. The only connection he could make was Ushioni-maru from Wano Country and Shimotsuki Ushimaru, a relative of Zoro's family.

However, it doesn't matter if you don't know the other person's abilities; you'll naturally understand once you've fought them.

In Japan, the Ushioni is a vicious sea monster with a bull-shaped head and a body resembling a giant spider. As a sea monster, it also possesses amphibious abilities.

So even if Green Bull falls into the ocean, he will only be unable to move, but he will definitely not die.

However, Reina was unaware of all of this.

After transforming, Green Bull launched another attack on Reina. His speed was several times faster than before. Even though Reina had the Sharingan, his body could only keep up with his opponent's movements. He could no longer anticipate and intercept him.

Besides the fierce battle between Reina and Green Bull, the surrounding marines and pirates were also locked in a close fight.

Although the Whitebeard Pirates launched a surprise attack, the Marines outnumbered them. If Reina hadn't brought several captains with him, even a sneak attack might not have been enough to repel the Marines.

While Reina was engaged in battle with the Navy, on the other side, Kizaru, in coordination with Vice Admiral Momonga, also launched an attack on the Moby Dick.

However, Whitebeard, as the captain, merely stood at the bow of the ship and did not personally take action.

Kizaru, who was originally going to hold off Whitebeard, was stopped by Jozu and Ace. The remaining pirates, led by their respective captains and the captains of the Whitebeard Pirates, launched an attack on the Navy.

“No, without reinforcements, we can’t defeat the Moby Dick! Whitebeard hasn’t made a move yet, but once he does… we might be at a disadvantage in an instant!” Coby said to Helmeppo beside him after kicking a pirate away.

"Really? We still have the advantage in terms of troop strength, and with Admiral Kizaru's presence, even if we can't completely eliminate them, we won't lose, right?" Helmeppo hesitated for a moment before saying.

"No! Our teacher said never to underestimate any of the Four Emperors. They all possess monstrous strength! What's more, the pirate in front of us is known as the strongest man in the world!" Coby said seriously, looking at Whitebeard standing at the bow of the Moby Dick.

"Gulp..." Helmeppo swallowed hard, and asked somewhat awkwardly, "Is it really that strong?"

Just then, Koby's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he immediately tensed up.

Because at that very moment, the white-bearded man who had been standing there moved...

"Gurararara... It's been a long time since I've had any exercise, so let me give it a try and see if my strength has dropped! Heh..." Whitebeard laughed and raised his naginata, slashing it directly at the naval warship in front of him.

A transparent energy shot out from the naginata, followed by a "crackling" sound like shattering glass. The space directly in front of him seemed to have been shattered.

"Not good!" Both Kizaru and the vice admirals who were fighting changed their expressions drastically upon seeing this.

Chapter 639 Each Person's Battle

"Boom boom boom~~~"

Whitebeard's attack seemed to pierce through space itself; a powerful energy overturned the naval warship facing the Moby Dick, and even affected several other warships nearby.

"Gurarararar..." Seemingly satisfied with his attack, Whitebeard couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Damn it, we can't let that guy run wild!" Vice Admiral Momonga said with a grim face.

However, apart from Kizaru, who could take on Whitebeard, none of the others were confident of victory. But their sense of justice did not allow them to be afraid, so several vice admirals, including Onigumo, set their sights on Whitebeard aboard the Moby Dick after escaping the pirates' clutches.

"Hehe... If you want to deal with Whitebeard, you'll have to ask us first!" The captains also noticed the vice admiral's intentions and began to move closer to the Moby Dick to prevent the navy from attacking Whitebeard.

"Oh my~ What a terrifying bunch of pirates!" Kizaru, now in his elemental form, dodged Jozu's attack and returned to the deck of the warship, looking at the smiling Whitebeard and saying.

Jozu's ability somewhat counters his own, and with Ace, who is also a Logia-type user, Kizaru is in a dilemma for a while.

However, after the captains blocked the vice admirals, Whitebeard was given a very comfortable environment to deal damage. This was even without Whitebeard making much of a move. If Whitebeard had gone all out, the Navy would probably have collapsed by now.

But now that Whitebeard has made his move, it's no longer possible for them to just stand by and watch, which puts even more pressure on the Navy.

On the other side, Reina and the other captains were locked in a fierce battle with the Navy reinforcements. Green Bull was fighting Reina intensely, and wherever the two went, whether it was warships or pirate crews, they all sank to the bottom of the sea.

After Green Bull discovered Reina's plan, he deliberately moved towards the pirate ships, so in addition to the warships being destroyed by the two, many pirate ships were also lost at their hands.

"Millennial Ice Prison!" Reina swung the Hyōrinmaru in his hand, and dozens of ice pillars blocked Green Bull's route, preventing him from getting any closer to the pirate ship.

"Bang bang bang!" But Green Bull wasn't so easy to trap. He shattered the ice pillars that approached him. It was just a pity that his plan to get closer to another pirate ship was ruined.

"Your plan has failed! Although Kizaru went to reinforce, it was too late to stop that part of the Marines from being wiped out!" Sensing the energy fluctuations coming from afar, Reina knew that it was the signal for his older brother, Whitebeard, to make his move.

"Hahaha... So what? As long as we keep you here, victory is still ours!" Green Bull said with a loud laugh.

"Keep us here? Are you mistaken?" Reina said with a smile. "You think you can keep me here?"

Although the navy has a numerical advantage here, Reina and his crew have already achieved their goal of preventing them from going to rescue. Even if they withdraw now, by the time Green Bull and his crew arrive, that part of the navy will probably have already been wiped out by Whitebeard.

Green Bull stared at Reina without saying a word.

He knew that he alone could not stop Reina, but Reina could not defeat him either!

And given the current situation, they were indeed in a hurry, so Green Bull took a deep breath, gave a few instructions to the sergeant beside him, and then charged towards Reina again.

"Hmph~ You want to keep me occupied? I'm afraid you don't have the ability!" A red light flashed in Reina's eyes, and when Green Bull appeared in front of him, he directly used the Sharingan's ability "Time Stop"!

"boom!"

"Boom!"

Although it was only for a brief moment, Reina's Hyōrinmaru struck Green Bull directly, slashing him down from the sky.

"Green Bull!"

Upon seeing Green Bull shot down, the Navy was immediately alarmed.

Green Bull just instructed his adjutant not to linger here and to go support Kizaru first.

"Lacjo, proceed according to plan!" After slaying Green Bull, Reina did not pursue, but waved his hand and shouted loudly to Lacjo.

“Alright!” Lakyo nodded, putting away his weapon.

Then, to the disbelief of the navy, Reina was left there while the rest of the crew retreated.

"Admiral Green Bull!" After rescuing Green Bull from the sea onto the deck, the first mate quickly reported, "Except for Akame Reyner, the rest of the enemy has retreated!"

"I understand! You don't need to worry about me! Go over there and support Admiral Kizaru!" Green Bull slowly stood up and said.

At this moment, a clear slash wound on his chest was bleeding profusely. After stopping the doctor from treating him, Green Bull roared and transformed again.

"So this is the Bull Demon form? Interesting. We'll have plenty of time to play around with it!" Reina, standing atop Liu Liu's head, chuckled as he saw the creature transform into a monster with a spider's body and a bull's head.

"puff!"

Once transformed, Green Bull spat directly at Reina.

However, Reina dared not be careless, because the purplish-black saliva was clearly poisonous.

"Hyōrinmaru Bankai!" Hyōrinmaru was directly released into Bankai, granting Reina the ability to fight in the air. At the same time, he quickly submerged and left the area.

"Tsk tsk tsk... That's really amazing!" Looking at Green Bull's saliva, which directly polluted the seawater below, its toxicity is definitely no less than Magellan's Venom-Venom Fruit.

Reina had barely finished his exclamation when the green bull, now completely transformed into a beast, charged towards him from the bow of the ship.

After his body transformed into a spider, the attacks from the six legs initially took Reina by surprise. He also had to be wary of the venom his opponent released, so Reina gradually found himself being overwhelmed.

"Now's the time! Everyone, full speed ahead!" Seeing that Green Bull had really suppressed Reina, the Navy immediately ordered the fleet to move towards the designated target.

Ahead of them were the pirates who had just retreated; clearly, they were also planning to go back and help.

"Want to leave? Did you ask me first? Ice Heaven Hundred Flowers Burial!" Seeing that the Navy also intended to leave the battlefield, Reina unleashed his full power, dodging Green Bull while swinging his Hyōrinmaru, and snow began to fall from the sky.

After being touched by the snowflakes, the naval soldiers began to freeze, and the snowflakes falling on the sea surface even froze the sea surface, directly freezing the naval warships as well.

"Hmph!" Seeing this, Green Bull, who had been forced back by Reina, descended from the air, his spider legs landing directly on the ice, and then he charged at Reina again.

The ice on the newly frozen sea surface began to collapse due to the impact of the Green Bull, and the frozen warship regained its power.

Chapter 640 Reina VS Green Bull

The battle between Reina and Green Bull has stirred up the sea into chaos, affecting several nearby naval warships, which are now rocking precariously and seemingly on the verge of sinking.

"Quickly, launch the lifeboats and prepare for rescue!"

"Quickly, quickly, before the ship sinks, rescue our compatriots on board!"

The commanders on the other warships are carrying out rescue operations.

Standing atop the wreckage of a warship, Green Bull frowned slightly. He knew that being slow meant being slow; Reina had allowed the pirates to retreat first, leaving him behind. While this had put him in danger, it had also brought him some benefits.

The aftermath of their battle only damaged the Navy's warships; it had no effect whatsoever on the pirates who had left earlier.

Green Bull didn't dare ask the Navy for help, because even if they joined forces with him here, they could only repel Reina at most, not kill him here.

Moreover, Kizaru's side definitely needs rescue right now. If these warships don't go over, the navy there will be in trouble when facing Whitebeard's Moby Dick.

So from the moment his opponent appeared, he had already lost the battle.

After thinking it through, Green Bull immediately ordered the warships to leave. Staying there alone to hold off Reina was the best option.

But after the warships were far away, Green Bull discovered that the pirates who had retreated earlier had not gone far, but had turned around and started fighting the warships again.

"I never expected you to be so shrewd! It seems we won't be able to get there in time to rescue you today!" Green Bull said in a deep voice.

“Of course, once my elder brother has wiped out that part of the navy, I naturally won’t stop you!” Reina replied with a slight smile.

The other party didn't make any further moves, and he was happy about that, so he just stood on Liu Liu's head and stared at the other party.

However, Green Bull was calculating in his mind how to break the deadlock.

Continuing to drag things out here with Reina is the worst option.

However, if he rushed over to help the warship now, Reina definitely wouldn't stand by. Although he was confident he could get there, the situation would simply return to its initial state, which wouldn't be of much use to him.

So now he faces two choices: either find a way to get the warships to leave first and go to rescue Kizaru, or he can abandon this side and rush to rescue Kizaru's side himself.
