Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

The bald Five Elders got up from the ground and said through gritted teeth.

He truly didn't believe that Shiraishi Osamu possessed such strength, but now the facts were undeniable: even with his Devil Fruit powers activated, he was still no match for Shiraishi Osamu!

Chapter 0947: The Second Stage

Shiraishi Xiu said with a grin, "I told you long ago, you're no match for me, so don't try to tease me!"

It happened incredibly fast. Before Shiraishi could even see the Five Elders in front of him, he grabbed the Five Elders' head and lifted him high into the air.

Unbeknownst to them, Shiraishi Osamu had already entered the state of Kyozo.

Upon witnessing this scene of "470", the Bald Five Elders were horrified, for they had never expected that Shiraishi Xiu would possess such abilities. The powerful chakra enveloped Shiraishi Xiu and the Bald Five Elders.

The bald Five Elders chuckled and said, "Alright, I'll show you the second stage of my ability."

Upon hearing this, Shiraishi Xiu broke out in a cold sweat, because he truly hadn't expected that the bald Five Elders' Devil Fruit ability would possess a second stage of transformation. He knew it was him...

Unexpected.

At that moment, the hair of the five bald old men suddenly began to grow vigorously, like a plant that never stops regenerating.

Shiraishi Osamu quickly separated the Five Elders from Susanoo. He had planned to deal with them here, but now it seemed impossible.

Shiraishi Shu understood perfectly well that the bald Five Elders were unlike any of the masters of the past; he had already reached the pinnacle of strength in One Piece.

Therefore, Shiraishi Xiu did not dare to underestimate him.

"Hahaha!"

Upon entering the second phase, the bald Five Elders became even more burly, their fingers gripping the sword tightly. Under the night sky, the sword emitted a flame as bright as day.

"Listen to me clearly, absolutely no one else possesses my methods!"

The bald Five Elders said smugly to Bai Shixiu.

Shiraishi Xiu said with a grin, "I don't think your methods are particularly remarkable. On the contrary, I think your moves are rather foolish."

Upon hearing this, the bald Five Elders flew into a rage and said to Bai Shixiu, "Stop spouting nonsense in front of me! I don't believe you can stop me. Here's your next move!"

Shiraishi Xiu laughed loudly and said, "If you have any skills, then go ahead and use them. After all, in my opinion, all your moves are completely useless!"

It happened incredibly fast; the bald Five Elders darted forward and appeared in front of Shiraishi Xiu, throwing their swords at him.

This seemingly casual attack actually contained unpredictable variations in swordsmanship, so Bai Shixiu dared not underestimate it.

Soon, Shiraishi Xiu successfully dodged the attack from the Bald Five Elders and created a large distance between himself and the Bald Five Elders!

"Now I'll show you my true abilities."

Shiraishi Xiu said smugly.

"I don't think you have any other skills. What other abilities do you have?"

At this moment, the bald Five Elders finally closed the distance between themselves and Shiraishi Xiu, which is why they felt that Shiraishi Xiu was nothing special.

The strength that Shiraishi Osamu displayed just now completely overwhelmed him, which is why he felt such fear.

"Man and sword become one!"

Just then, Shiraishi Xiu stepped forward and said softly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Shixiu's domineering aura vanished without a trace, transforming into a strange sharpness.

Faced with Shiraishi Xiu's formidable strength, the bald Five Elders couldn't help but say, "Could this be the legendary fusion of man and sword?"

Chapter 0948: Superiority and Disparity

Shiraishi Xiu said with a smile, "You have good judgment. Before I even used this move, you had no chance of winning!"

The bald Five Elders' palms were sweating profusely.

If he had to compete with Shiraishi Osamu, he didn't think he could escape death in Shiraishi Osamu's current state.

Because the unity of man and sword is quite terrifying, even if he studied swordsmanship his whole life, he still couldn't cultivate sword intent.

That's why he felt so terrified when he saw Shiraishi Osamu's move!

Just then, Shiraishi Xiu said with a grin, "Let's call it a 10. I'd rather not let you witness such terrifying strength..." After saying this, Shiraishi Xiu turned and left.

The reason why Shiraishi Osamu left so easily was because he estimated that most of the slaves had already escaped.

Shiraishi Xiu has had one thought all along: to do everything he can to hold off this bald Five Elders.

Now that Shiraishi Xiu has accomplished this, he is willing to leave this place.

If it weren't for this reason, Shiraishi Xiu would never have left here so easily, because Shiraishi Xiu's purpose this time was to rescue these slaves.

On the azure sea, Bai Shixiu strolled leisurely, completely at ease.

You should know that Shiraishi Xiu has traveled through many worlds, so he knows the special secret techniques of each world.

So even if Shiraishi Osamu lost his boat, he could cross the sea very easily.

Just then, Shiraishi Xiu turned his gaze to an area nearby and sensed the presence of a person.

"Huh? What's going on?"

Shiraishi Osamu frowned and muttered to himself.

Soon, Shiraishi Xiu arrived in the area and saw three little girls on a raft, drifting on the sea.

Shiraishi Osamu recognized the three girls at a glance.

One of them is Boa Hancock. Osamu Shiraishi knows Boa Hancock quite well.

Throughout One Piece, Boa Hancock is known as the Empress, but the girls are still children, so Shiraishi Shu doesn't have any special regard for them.

The three girls were initially wary of Shiraishi Osamu, but Boa Hancock stopped the other two girls and said to Shiraishi Osamu, "Big brother, it's you who freed us, isn't it..."

Upon hearing this, Shiraishi Osamu frowned and said, "How did you know? This is truly unbelievable..."

The little girl said with a grin, "Of course I understand, because I can see it in your eyes!"

Shiraishi Osamu couldn't help but gasp. But he fell silent.

"Drifting at sea is not a long-term solution; you must find a place to settle down!" 470

Shiraishi Xiu said so.

Hearing this, Boa Hancock said, "Big brother, do you have any other ideas? The three of us are too young and don't know how to sail, so it's impossible for us to leave here. If we stay here any longer, won't we starve to death?"

Shiraishi Osamu chuckled and said, "Hancock, you're quite naive and adorable. To be honest, although I'm very busy, I'm willing to help you. After all, I believe in seeing things through to the end. If I can't even do this much, then I'm unwilling to liberate the slaves."

Chapter 0949: Liberating the Slaves

Boa Hancock said, "Now that you know we're slaves, big brother, you should keep it a secret for us, right?"

Shiraishi Xiu couldn't help but say, "Of course I will keep it a secret for you. Nobody wants to have such a humiliating history."

"Thank you!"

Boa Hancock gritted her teeth and said to Shiraishi Shu with tears in her eyes.

She obeyed Shiraishi Xiu from the bottom of her heart because Shiraishi Xiu was quite remarkable; he not only liberated them but was also willing to keep their secrets.

For some time now, Boa Hancock had been bullied by nobles and Celestial Dragons in Santa Maria, so she felt extremely ashamed and remorseful.

Finally, I met a good person like Osamu Shiraishi, and it felt like the whole world suddenly brightened up.

Shiraishi Osamu said with a grin, "You don't need to worry. I also hate the Celestial Dragons and the powerful."

"It seems we've achieved consciousness!"

Boa Hancock, standing nearby, asked, "So, where are you going to take us...?"

Shiraishi Osamu said with a grin, "I know where your hometown is!"

Hearing this, the three exchanged bewildered glances. Boa Hancock then said, "Big brother, you even know this? That's truly unbelievable!"

Shiraishi Osamu said with a grin, "It's nothing special. You're just from Amazon Lily, right?"

Boa Hancock said, "Yes, yes, that's where we come from. If you don't mind the trouble, big brother, I hope you can escort us back, because even though the three of us have some strength, we are no match for this raging sea!"

After careful consideration, Shiraishi Xiu felt that Boa Hancock's words made sense. Moreover, Shiraishi Xiu had already promised the local authorities to send them back to their hometown and find them a stable place to stay.

Osamu Shiraishi is always a man of his word.

So Shiraishi said to Boa Hancock, "There is absolutely no way this raft can safely cross that area. I know it's the Calm Belt, and there are many Sea Kings there."

"What should we do?" Boa Hancock said. "But this is the only raft we have!"

Shiraishi Xiu said with a grin, "It's alright, give me some time, I'll go find that ship right now."

Upon hearing this, Boa Hancock immediately said, "I hope you won't abandon us, big brother. We'll be terrified."

Shiraishi Osamu thought for a moment and said, "In that case, you'd better hold on tight. I'm going to tow this ship around to find the next one!"

"Are you planning to hijack another ship?"

"Boa Hancock asked."

Shiraishi Osamu said with a grin, "That's right, and there are just a lot of blind pirates around here, so let's go rob them."

call out!

Just then, Shiraishi Xiu pulled on the rope of the raft and started speeding across the sea.

Boa Hancock and her two sisters were stunned; they hadn't expected Shiraishi Xiu to be able to run on the sea. The raft was quite sturdy; it managed to stay afloat even with that kind of power.

Before long, Shiraishi Xiu found a cargo ship that was sailing, and this cargo ship was the one that Tianlong Renya delivered to the Heavenly Gold!

Shiraishi Osamu saw it immediately, and was therefore overjoyed.

At this moment, a man dressed in white was on guard duty on the ship. He exuded a chilling aura.

Chapter 0950: A Chilling Aura

Shiraishi Xiu could tell at a glance that he was a master.

But Shiraishi Xiu was not afraid of him. Even if he was a special agent, Shiraishi Xiu would never let this ship go.

Just then, the man in white stood up and said to Shiraishi Xiu, "Are you planning to hijack my ship? Who exactly are you? And who are those girls with you?"

Shiraishi Xiu's eyes crinkled with laughter as he said, "This person doesn't need to know so much, so just surrender and obediently hand over the ship. I only need 470 for the ship!"

Upon hearing this, the man in white said, "Get lost! There is absolutely no way I would hand over the warship to you. The one being escorted in bed is the Celestial Dragon's Heavenly Gold."

Shiraishi Osamu laughed and said, "Is that so? I don't think there's anything remarkable about it."
