One Piece: The Salted Fish Fruit

Chapter 237 This road is blocked!

The bright moon hangs high in the sky! The stars twinkle!

Mabi stood atop the highest point of the entire island, her red trench coat rustling in the fierce wind. Below, the battlefield raged, and the red light illuminated her comrades in battle.

Two long swords were already drawn from their sheaths and held in their hands, placed on either side of their bodies. They stepped high into the void, leaving behind silvery-white spatial footprints.

Walking up to Kizaru again and looking down at him as they gathered behind him, the Vice Admiral, now standing atop the mountain peak, shouted loudly:

"Gentlemen, this road is blocked! Please go elsewhere if you wish to pass."

"You're just one person. Even if you're incredibly strong, trying to stop us all is a pipe dream," a vice admiral roared as he ascended into the air using Moonwalk.

"Have you really thought about it?"

Mabi, who was suspended in the sky, chuckled. Spatial energy was generated at the tips of the twin swords placed on both sides of her body. With a casual stroke, two one-foot-long spatial rifts formed in the void on both sides of Mabi.

"I'll only keep a three-foot distance. Zephyr, who wants to kill your teacher, may pass by on your own." Mabi said calmly, looking at the group of naval soldiers.

······

Maby's words silenced them; which of the Marines present hadn't received Zephyr's instruction?

If he didn't want to destroy the new world, who would want to be his opponent? But their differing stances forced them to intervene, even his former teachers.

Now, the transparent void on either side of Mabi is like an indestructible wall; whether they can break through it depends entirely on the obstacles in their hearts.

Meanwhile, Mabi's nonchalant demeanor further enraged the hot-tempered Vice Admiral, after all, those present were a team capable of arming at least three Buster Calls, an existence that could easily overthrow a nation.

"Pirate, you're asking for death!"

A series of sonic booms resounded as several figures strode through the air, their weapons radiating an aura of dominance, instantly tearing through layers of space and appearing above Mabi's head.

"Go ahead and try to break through!" Mabi shouted.

"Dance in the Sky!"

With a quick glance at the charging Marines, Mabi's entire body was already poised to strike. She swung her long blade, which had been infused with Armament Haki during the stalemate, and swept it out in front of her.

Under the influence of the absorbed Haki, the power of the Wind Blade Fruit instantly surged from the blades of the Wind Blade Fruit, each wind blade spinning rapidly in the sky like a dancing sprite. As Mapi swung her longsword, the wind blades that had filled the entire world formed a waterfall of wind blades, enveloping the space before her and wanting to destroy all matter.

"You all disperse,"

The Eight-Foot Magatama!

Shining with golden light!

Kizaru appeared before the Wind Blade Waterfall, his hands flashing like laser beams as he met the destructive force of the waterfall.

Rumble! Rumble!

The collision of the colorless energy blade and the golden laser light produced a deafening sound, and the golden explosion wave erupted directly on the mountaintop, its brightness spreading throughout the entire island, transforming it into a golden island towering in the ocean.

"Shun Kong!"

"Slash through the air!"

Taking advantage of the dazzling light flashing in the explosion, Mabi instantly teleported behind Kizaru, transforming into a fiery red wheel. The long sword in her hand, radiating Haki, spun like a wheel hub, carrying a powerful centrifugal force as it slashed directly at Kizaru's back.

Click!

The opponent's armor shone through instantly, and he crashed into a mountain like an arrow, causing a section of it to collapse.

A single strike can instantly determine the strength or weakness of a team!

It couldn't be concealed for even a second; the figure, radiating golden light, rose into the air once more, a golden cross-shaped longsword appearing in its hand.

"The Kusanagi Sword!"

"Again!" Mabi shouted, stepping forward as she charged at Kizaru once more.

In an instant, wind blades and golden light shifted across the sky, colliding violently from time to time, with countless golden lights flashing in the dark night sky.

The shockwave from the collapse shattered the mountain peak, causing the remaining rocks to tumble and rush towards the foot of the mountain. Even the soldiers on the very edge could clearly see the fierce battle raging high in the sky.

···

"Yo, they've started fighting already? Laser, that's the general who chased us down two years ago." Zoro couldn't help but smile as he looked at the battle unfolding in the distance.

"Too slow, mosshead. I took down these guys before you did." Standing to the side, Sanji skillfully took out a cigarette, flicked his charred fingers to ignite the tobacco, and slowly exhaled the smoke, speaking disdainfully.

"You lecherous cook, you weren't even a few seconds faster than me!"

"Every second counts!"

I'll cut you down!

"I'll roast you!"

Thud! Thud! With two dull impacts, the entire area fell silent.

"Phew, finally some peace and quiet."

Nami slowly released the surging emotions from her fist as she retracted it, then, as if remembering something, suddenly roared:

"You two want to go help Mabi? There's a lot of fighting on his side that requires clearing out the enemy lines!"

"Pervert?" The two exchanged a glance, then got up and headed towards Mabi. The battle here was over, but the battle over there was just getting intense, so they were sure to show off their skills.

"Huff, huff! Huff, huff! Nami, go help Mami! This is the battle of my dreams between him and me!" Luffy, panting heavily, stared intently at Zephyr and gave the order to Nami.

“Okay.” Nami nodded. The battle between the new navy and the new navy was nearing its end. Without the suppression of high-end combat power, the new navy would not pose any pressure to everyone.

···

"Keep going, don't stop." Mabi's face was full of smiles as she swung her long sword repeatedly, clashing with Kizaru's Ame-no-Murakumo sword and bursting out bursts of golden light.

"This is terrifying! Red Blade brat, you're even stronger than you were two years ago, and with the added Armament Haki, you're several levels stronger than me." Kizaru, wielding the Ame-no-Murakumo sword, chuckled gleefully.

"It seems your wish to devour them all is going to be dashed," Mabi replied, knocking her opponent away once more, before kicking away two lieutenant generals who had come to ambush her.

Immediately afterwards, he swung his arm in a wide arc and slammed it hard into the void, whereupon golden light shone brightly.

It was Kizaru, who had returned again to prepare for a sneak attack.

"Kill him together." Seeing that he couldn't kill Mabe alone, Kizaru once again led a dozen vice admirals in a surprise attack.

"Yes, Mr. Kizaru!" Everyone responded immediately upon hearing Kizaru's order.

The power is several times stronger than that of a general, and it is not something that one person can deal with. Only by combining the strength of everyone can we kill this brat in front of us. Otherwise, no matter who tries to break through, he will kick them back.

"A phoenix with a thousand and eight kinds of troubles."

"Demon Flame Grill".

Two powerful spirals of wind shot into the sky and struck the two lieutenant generals who were preparing to attack Mabe.

"You pervert, we're here." Sanji and Zoro appeared simultaneously from the other side of the mountain, looking down at the Marines below.

"Franky Laser Cannon!"

At the same time, Franky's voice rang out from nearby, and a beam of white laser instantly struck a lieutenant general, the intense heat instantly piercing through the opponent's Armament Haki armor and creating a bloody hole.

"Me too, bro! One hundred million volts of thunder dragon!"

"Mabby, you're not fighting alone! Full Moon Dance - Moonfall!" Mia, in her serpentine form, leaped high into the air and then landed back down, staring at the Navy.

"And us..."

With the arrival of Sanji and Zoro, the crew members, who had finished their battle, climbed the mountain one by one and appeared at the place where Maple had initially blocked their way.

Seeing more and more Straw Hat crew members appear, the faces of all the marines immediately turned extremely ugly. Just one nameless member had made it difficult for more than a dozen vice admirals and one admiral to move an inch, let alone now that all the crew members had appeared together.

The legendary Straw Hat Pirates are lawless; they were able to defeat the Buster Call two years ago!

Great battle!

It's on the verge!

Chapter 238 Facing the Navy

"Kill them!"

Faced with the appearance of the Straw Hat Pirates, the Navy, which adheres to absolute self-righteousness, roared loudly and ordered the Navy soldiers beside him to turn their cannons around and bombard the Straw Hat crew in front of them.

Mabi waved her hand, creating a spatial barrier. Explosive shells carrying intense heat struck the barrier, creating sparks of orange. She turned to her comrades who were preparing for battle and spoke.

"You are free to choose your enemy, but those who do not engage in close combat must choose a companion to accompany them. Every vice admiral in the navy possesses superb close combat abilities."

"Abis, come with me, I'll take you to fight in a robot." General Franky's cockpit suddenly opened, and Franky, with his airplane-style hair, called out to the smaller, light green robot next to him.

“Good! Perfect timing to use Xiaofeng’s new ability.” Apis’s clear voice came from the cockpit as she answered. At the same time, the smaller robot wobbled along, and two 150-meter-tall cannons emerged from its mechanical body and were firmly mounted on its shoulders as Apis moved.

Apis sat upright on the soft backrest, her small hands gripping the control lever and staring intently at the lens in front of her, moving the control lever to adjust the muzzle so that her target appeared in the crosshair.

"Xiao Feng, inflate the air and compress it."

A gentle breeze ruffled Apis's hair, and a low sonic boom echoed from the honeycomb-like air intakes exposed outside the cabin, gradually filling the cylinder behind the gun barrel with a faint smell of sulfur. As the pressure gauge in front of Apis reached its maximum value, her delicate face tensed instantly, and her thumb pressed tightly against the firing button.

"Neptune - Spirit Air Cannon! Fire!"

With a sharp cry from Apis, the two cannons mounted on her shoulders roared fiercely, sending out two transparent rays powerful enough to distort space.

Wherever it passed, concentric white sonic booms appeared. Qi Lian was born from the tail of the ray and formed a white track in the air.

"Iron Body." The Navy Vice Admiral's face tensed up as he sensed the Observation Haki, and all his muscles instantly solidified. He sensed that the circular air bullet, powerful enough to shatter space, had already covered the entire space around his body, making it impossible for him to move. He could only use his strongest defensive technique.

boom!

The air cannon, carrying two white sonic boom tracks, pierced through layers of space and slammed heavily into the opponent's hardened body, directly causing him to draw two grooves more than ten meters high on the hard rock.

Even with his muscles tensed and his defenses hardened by Armament Haki, the powerful impact of the high-pressure shell fired from the 150mm diameter cannon was enough to instantly shatter the Armament Haki that had penetrated his body and caused internal organ damage.

As the aftershocks subsided, his muscles regained their elasticity, and a mouthful of scarlet blood gushed from his mouth, dissipating the remaining force within his body.

Its once towering body collapsed like a broken stone pillar, sending up clouds of dust that immediately instilled fear in the surrounding navy, causing them to hesitate and retreat.

This is the strongest fighting force below the Admiral! He was rendered incapable of fighting in just one encounter.

"Yay! I hit it! Little Wind!" Inside the cockpit, Apis patted the sky above her head, and a pale blue, transparent object rolled down into her little hand, sharing her temporary joy.

"Xiao Feng, it's our turn now."
