Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

However, it would be extremely difficult for Shiraishi Osamu to defeat Captain John with his bare hands.

"If we had told you to hand over your knives earlier, none of this would have happened. Now even your captain is suffering this humiliation. I wonder what you're thinking?"

The pirate who had initially seized the weapon turned his attention to the 30 people surrounding the other side and spoke.

In his view, Shiraishi Xiu's defeat and fall were inevitable; it was only a matter of time.

Once time has passed, Captain John will surely win this battle, and who knows what these guys will be thinking then.

Moreover, this man seems to be the famous Captain Shiraishi Osamu, whose name has been circulating around the world recently.

Unfortunately, he encountered our Captain John, whose famous sword Shusui is the nemesis of all Armament Haki.

The longer one is in contact with it, the weaker one's Armament Haki will become.

Given enough time, Shiraishi Shu would probably be unable to use Armament Haki even in a short period of time.

At that time, I'd like to see what he has to rely on to fight Captain John.

(Is it okay?)

'Hmph, look at your captain, he's currently under Captain John's thumb. I advise you to hurry up and hand over that knife you're holding.'

"So that I won't come and rob you after your captain falls down!"

The pirate persisted in demanding the long sword he had seen from Shiraishi Hide's men.

But how could they possibly hand over their weapons to him so easily? They glared fiercely at the pirate.

Chapter 0685: I underestimated you

Although Shiraishi Osamu's subordinates would not be a match for them in one-on-one combat, each of them possessed a fighting spirit that the others lacked.

The fierce look in his eyes just now actually made them feel a little scared, as if they were being stared at by a vicious wolf.

If you try to engage with them, they'll probably tear you to pieces immediately.

After ignoring the pirate, he turned his gaze back to Shiraishi Osamu and Captain John in the arena.

At this point, they had already begun a new round of confrontation.

Captain John gripped the Autumn Water tightly in his hand and slashed at Shiraishi Xiu's chest.

Faced with such a swift attack, Shiraishi Shu could only barely take a step back to dodge the blade and avoid having his chest slashed open.

Despite the protection of Armament Haki, Shiraishi Shu didn't believe that Armament Haki could protect his body after what had just happened.

If that knife were to fall on his chest, he would definitely be enraged by the domineering aura on his chest. Once that aura was broken, Bai Shixiu would be immediately injured.

"Captain Shiraishi, I didn't expect you to be so fast. You were able to dodge an attack like that. It seems I underestimated you!"

After saying that, Captain John's long sword, which had already fallen, suddenly flicked upwards, about to strike Shiraishi Osamu's chin.

Shiraishi Xiu then clasped his hands together, firmly grasping the famous sword Autumn Water with his palms, making it impossible for Captain John to pry it off even slightly, no matter how hard he tried.

Although he had grasped Qiushui, Xiu clearly felt that the Armament Haki in his hands was being continuously absorbed by Qiushui.

Startled, Bai Shi calmly released his hand, took a step back, and looked at Qiu Shui with a serious expression.

His brain was working at high speed, thinking about how to deal with this Autumn Water and how to absorb Armament Haki.

If we can't come up with a solution, it probably won't be long.

The Armament Haki he unleashed was so powerful that his body would lose its greatest barrier at that point.

The famous sword Qiushui is a sharp blade capable of cutting through iron like mud. Baishi Xiu knew that his body was not tough enough to withstand Qiushui's attack with his bare hands.

Unable to think of a solution, Shiraishi Osamu simply stopped trying to figure out how to prevent his Armament Haki from being absorbed.

As long as he didn't get touched by that famous sword, everything would be fine. Having figured this out, Shiraishi Xiu once again transformed into a ghost and darted through the air, leaving Captain John dazzled.

At this moment, Shiraishi Xiu had already appeared due to his high-speed movement, leaving three afterimages.

Captain John was also unable to distinguish for a short time which one was Shiraishi Xiu's true form.

"boom!"

Before John could even distinguish which one was the real Shiraishi Osamu, he felt a sudden, forward-moving force on his back.

It was obvious without even thinking that Shiraishi Xiu had touched the back of his body.

This punch sent Captain John staggering forward more than ten meters.

Having finally secured a brief victory through a surprise attack, Shiraishi Xiu was not about to let go of this hard-won opportunity.

As Captain John lunged forward, his legs stomped on the ground, and then his body once again transformed into a ghost and charged toward Captain John.

Captain John felt a chill run down his spine, knowing that Shiraishi Xiu had caught up with him.

Chapter 0686: Three Colors of Overpowering Aura Unleashed

Captain John, lunging forward, lost his balance and could only grip the Autumn Water sword tightly to steady himself on the ground, barely managing to shift his body slightly to the left. Just as he moved to the left, Shiraishi Xiu's fist passed right through his shoulder, the terrifying force even creating a gust of wind that whipped his clothes around. At this moment, Captain John remained in his lunging posture.

However, this did not prevent Captain John from retaliating against Shiraishi Osamu. He simply moved the Autumn Water from his left hand to his right hand in front of his body.

Then he turned and went towards Bai Shi-Xiu Kan, who was standing behind him on his right.

Although Shiraishi Xiu was not visible, the slash was indeed aimed at his neck.

Osamu Shiraishi never expected that Captain John would be able to retaliate against him in such a manner.

This was indeed far beyond his expectations, leaving Shiraishi Xiu somewhat flustered for a moment.

With his arms outstretched and his right foot lightly touching the ground, Captain John swung backward, but he was still very fast.

The knife still left a shallow but deep bloodstain on Shiraishi Xiu's neck.

Instantly, Shiraishi Xiu's neck became red and swollen.

Fortunately, the knife did not injure Shiraishi Xiu's neck; otherwise, if it had slashed her neck, Shiraishi Xiu would be dead by now!

Shiraishi Osamu felt a slight pain in his neck and was greatly alarmed.

Captain John was indeed not as highly regarded as Olvia.

If I hadn't been so careful, that one strike would probably have taken Shiraishi Xiu's life.

He raised his hand and touched the red bloodstain on his neck. Shiraishi Xiu stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Captain John standing in front of him.

At this moment, he turned around and met Shiraishi Xiu's gaze. Only then did the two of them see each other clearly.

This guy is a bit thin, but if you only look at his frail appearance...

To think that he was weak would be a mistake. At this point, Shiraishi no longer underestimated Captain John.

What kind of powerful force lies beneath this weak and pathetic appearance? Shiraishi Xiu has just experienced it firsthand.

The expression on his face gradually changed from playful to serious.

Shiraishi Osamu unleashed his three-color Haki simultaneously.

As soon as Conqueror's Haki was unleashed, Captain John visibly turned his head, as he had only ever seen this power in five other people.

His former captain and his three companions who had long since become kings of the sea, as well as Steel Bone Sky who had besieged Captain Rocks.

Shiraishi Osamu was the sixth person he had ever seen who could use Conqueror's Haki. Throughout history, every possessor of Conqueror's Haki has become a prodigy.

Whether it's pirate meat or marine meat, it will be something that others admire.

As Shiraishi Xiu became serious, Captain John's gaze towards him also gradually turned solemn, as he unleashed his three-colored Haki simultaneously.

This made him realize that Shiraishi Xiu had not yet used his full power, and that Shiraishi Xiu would be at his peak in the coming days.

Only by defeating Shiraishi Osamu at this moment can it be considered a true victory.

Those brief moments of advantage were nothing at all; they vanished the moment Shiraishi Xiu unleashed his three-colored Haki.

Although the two briefly stopped fighting at this point, they did not continue their confrontation.

But you could tell from their heated gazes that the two were still locked in a power struggle.

Chapter 0687: The Physical Observation Haki

The small advantage that had just been established was completely destroyed by Shiraishi Osamu's three-color Haki.

The three types of Haki were actually manifested in the same person. You should know that if an ordinary person could learn even one of them in their entire life, it would be enough to transform them completely.

Not to mention Shiraishi Osamu, who not only knows all three types of Haki, but also has a level of mastery over the world's top fighters in all three types of Haki.

From the solemn expression on Captain John's face, it was clear that even if he wanted to deal with Shiraishi Xiu now, it wouldn't be so easy.

He could easily be defeated if he wasn't careful; he could clearly feel that the air around him made his body feel abnormally unnatural.

This must be Observation Haki. If he can't improve his speed to a higher level when Observation Haki is almost solidified, Shiraishi Shu will be able to predict his next move just by looking at his movement.

The strange and powerful sword, Shusui, could only absorb the Armament Haki from Shiraishi Shu through contact with him. As for the Observation Haki, which seemed to solidify even when dispersed in the air, that was...

There is no way to do it.

"Look, what's that thing around the captain? It looks like even the air is wriggling!"

The onlookers also noticed the change in the air. The air around John became thick and viscous, and standing in it would probably feel very oppressive.

"Observation Haki compressed to its extreme... it seems the captain has truly met his match this time!"

Among these people, besides Olvia, there were many other knowledgeable individuals who immediately recognized what those things around John were!

This answer stunned John's men, who had never seen what Observation Haki looked like.

Although their companion wasn't particularly strong, he was the most knowledgeable person on the entire ship besides Captain John.

He has been following John for several years, so it's no exaggeration for him to say that Alai possesses Observation Haki.

John's subordinates were speechless with astonishment, never expecting that Observation Haki would be like this.

John himself was no different.

The two people in sight were only five or six meters apart, but the tense standoff between them was palpable to anyone.

"Ho!"

John made the first move. He knew that dragging things out like this wasn't a solution, so he decided to take action first.

If we can catch Shiraishi Xiu off guard, that would be a good thing. Even if we can't do that, we can still take this opportunity to familiarize ourselves with Shiraishi Xiu's current fighting style and find his weaknesses more quickly.

With his sword, Qiu Shui swung in mid-air, creating a crescent-shaped arc. The air in front of Bai Shixiu was also cleaved by this crescent-shaped slash.
