One Piece: The Salted Fish Fruit

"Clang! Clang!" Two sounds like the striking of bells rang out instantly! Zoro's explosive force slammed directly into the opponent's body. The body, which had been suspended in mid-air, could no longer remain still. As Zoro's blade sliced ​​through the opponent's body, it flew away like a cannonball and crashed into the distant Bridge of Hesitation.

"Is he dead?" Angelia asked, her little head peeking out from behind Zoro's shoulder as he hovered in the air, the divine barrier behind him activating.

"No! The Haki is too solid, making it difficult to cut through!" Zoro could clearly feel the difficulty of the blade slicing across the opponent's body. He could only knock the opponent away from a distance by the trajectory of the blade and could not easily cut through the opponent's body as he usually did.

"go!"

"Alright!" Sensing the direction of Zoro's muscles, Angelia flapped her wings and headed directly to where he landed.

"Devil's Gale! Level 1 Meat Grinder!" Sanji's feet burned with flames, carrying immense force as he kicked wildly at the long sword his opponent swung. Invisible shockwaves formed rings of energy that rapidly spread outwards, striking the cloud bridge formed by Jack and exploding, instantly turning the entire area into a white world.

"Iron Cloud Blade!" Jack, standing on white clouds, bounced around, wielding several crescent-shaped white blades, each about a foot in diameter, which cut through the air with a whooshing sound as they slashed at his opponent's body.

"Bang!" Facing the whirling blade, the opponent narrowed his eyes and remained expressionless. He slashed out with his long sword, shattering the oncoming blade. He then flicked his wrist and raised an invisible blade of energy, which appeared in front of Jack the instant the blade was formed.

Jack swung his hands, his eight three-inch-long claws probing out from between his fingers, bending them to use the sharpness of the claws to cut through.

"Crack!" A sound like shattering glass rang out between Jack's hands, and the shattered air blades exploded instantly, blowing against his soft fur.

“Tiger! Pretty good pet! Then I’ll take your heads too!” The other party said calmly, looking at the face of the colorless blade that Jack had torn open, while his long sword continued to slash at the kicking legs.

"You'll only know once you try! Diable Jambe - Level 2 Meat Grinder!" Hearing those death-inducing words, Sanji unleashed a frenzied barrage of precise footwork, striking the opponent's swinging blades so hard that the opponent could no longer maintain their balance and began to move downwards.

"Tiger Claw! Heavy Cutter!" With a swing of his arms, he dissipated the force of the explosion. The clouds beneath his feet burst open, and his body lunged forward, his sharp claws striking the opponent's shoulder.

"Piercing Strike!" A long sword appeared on his shoulder as the opponent twisted his body and bent his arm. Ignoring the several claws that were cutting towards his shoulder, the long sword went straight for Jack's throat, intending to cause mutual destruction.

Looking at the sharp blade thrusting towards him, Jack quickly retracted his eight tiger claws to block, which interlocked and gripped the opponent's thrusting longsword tightly.

"Crack!" A series of ear-piercing, teeth-grinding friction sounds rang out, and countless sparks emerged from the longsword held by Jack's eight tiger claws. A cloud of clouds appeared beneath Jack's feet, and he slammed his foot down on it. Under this powerful force, his entire body was thrown upwards, and his left leg rose up to grab the opponent's arm that was swinging back in defense.

"Iron Cloud Axe!" With his left leg firmly gripping the opponent's arm, his entire body stiffened and straightened, preventing the opponent's arm from bending to defend. His right leg swung rapidly, using his entire calf as the back of the blade, with layers of iron clouds piled up on it to form a V-shaped blade that slashed towards the opponent's exposed throat. His long tiger tail was also raised high with the swing of his body, aiming to strike the opponent's eyes.

"Jack!" Sanji roared upon seeing their movements. In this form, he had completely exposed his body to their attacks. Now, as the opponent swung his long sword, he directly positioned his arm to face Sanji's wildly kicking leg. The action of slashing directly accelerated the opponent's arm, making it even faster.

"Roar!" Seeing the long sword swinging towards his waist, Jack roared, opened his mouth wide, and bit down hard on the hand holding the hilt. His whole body straightened, and his legs swiftly slashed towards the opponent's neck.

"Damn it! Flaming Flesh Shred!" Upon seeing this, Sanji stomped his feet hard on the air, the powerful flames making the air as hard as rock. He lunged at his opponent's arm, reaching out with his hands, which he never used in battle, to grab it.

"Crack!" The Iron Cloud Axe, kicked wildly with immense force, slashed directly at the opponent's neck, only to shatter instantly under the opponent's Armament Haki. The remaining force caused the opponent's neck and head to twist outwards. The long tiger tail, carrying tremendous force, swept across the opponent's eyes, blasting them in. But the long sword in his hand arrived in an instant, frantically slicing into Jack's body.

"Damn it!" Sanji, flying at high speed, was in the other's arms, his right leg braced on the other's shoulder, his hands pressing hard on the other's wrists to prevent the long sword, which had already advanced halfway into Jack's body, from advancing any further.

"Demon Shattered Head!" In an instant, he twisted his waist and turned his leg! His left foot, still free, swung around and, carrying the flames of Sanji's anger, kicked wildly at the opponent's high-rising skull.

"Bang!" The two collided and a dull sound erupted from the point of impact, emanating from the colorless Qilian Mountains and spreading far and wide.

"Ugh!" The relentless attacks on his neck, eyes, and head, despite the domineering force blocking them, still managed to penetrate his brain, instantly knocking him unconscious. He could no longer maintain his footing and plummeted downwards.

"Hoo!" Jack felt his bound arms become weak and powerless, and his mental strength relaxed. His whole body shrank like a deflated balloon, shrinking into a fat cat about a foot long, and he fell down.

"Jack! How are you! Wake up!" Sanji asked, scooping up Jack from mid-air as he sprinted down the ground.

"It's nothing! It hurts a little, let me sleep for a bit!" Jack opened his blurry eyes, glanced at Sanji who looked anxious, and said weakly. Clouds appeared around him, enveloping him and giving him a simple bandage.

"Wait! You..." Sanji looked at the white cloud in his hand and hurriedly tried to take out a wax pellet to drip into it, but then he looked at the white cloud in his hand and realized that he couldn't do anything in this state.

"I'll get someone to treat you right away!"

···

The battle here started and ended in an instant, with the outcome decided in less than a second, resulting in one person's defeat and another's serious injury. This immediately silenced the navy observing the entire battlefield.

What on earth happened?! This is the second-highest level of combat power in the Navy, only below the Admiral! And they were defeated in this paradise, less than a minute after the battle began! Vice Admiral, please come out quickly! I'm sure you're alright! Like Vice Admiral Doberman just now, only temporarily submerged in the sea! Or like Vice Admiral Onigumo, only badly knocked out but not defeated!

"Splash!" Several more people regained their senses and jumped into the sea to swim towards that direction!

"Bang!" A dull thud from the building roused the still-silent naval officers and soldiers, who all turned to look at the shattered warship in the distance!

"Lieutenant General Doberman!" From the remaining figures in the sky, it was immediately clear who had been shot into the ship's cabin!

"Straw Hat Kid! You can't be allowed to live!" Momonga coldly glared at Luffy, who was also standing on thin air, and said, his longsword pointing forward. Using his powerful Observation Haki, he had already seen what was happening; in just a short time, three of them had been sent flying! Letting them go today would only make them stronger in the future!

"Then let's try it! My crew can only be protected by us! Gum-Gum Extendable Air Cannon!" Luffy said coldly, and with a slight shake of his hand, an air cannon was launched!

Chapter 122 Consecutive Victories! Time to Leave!

"Da! Da!"

"What a tough body!" Maby jumped through the hole and looked at Doberman, who had stood up again, and remarked.

His fully charged attack only sent his opponent flying. It was really difficult to break through his Armament Haki armor. However, judging from the blood at the corner of his mouth, his internal body wasn't very strong. It was still possible to penetrate through the Haki armor.

"Fire! Fire!" shouted the surrounding sailors who saw the figure appear.

"Shockwave!" The blade flipped, releasing a powerful air pressure that instantly reflected countless bullets back.

"Pirates!"

"Shut up! Salted Fish Thrust!" Mabi's feet instantly stomped and shattered, and she stretched out her fist to rush directly towards the opponent's body. Spiritual energy surged out, and it could only be most effective in places where people gathered.

"Ugh!" He swung his knife to block, but the spiritual energy from Mabi's fist spread into his body and replicated itself to search for nearby life forms. In just a short moment, everyone on the ship was lying on the ground with their eyes rolled back in their heads.

"Phew! One done!" Mabi exhaled as she looked at the pile of salted fish on the ground.

···

"Fire! Fire!" Seeing the hijacked warship getting faster and faster, all the warships that could move turned their guns around and began to pour shells into it. In an instant, the entire sky was filled with countless black dots falling in parabolic arcs toward the rapidly moving warship.

"Watch this! Weather Thundercloud!" Nami exclaimed confidently, gazing at the densely packed cannonballs appearing. The entire sky was now filled with dark clouds, brimming with immense energy, just waiting for an outlet. The onslaught of countless metal cannonballs provided the perfect release of pressure on these clouds. As Nami unleashed a bolt of lightning into the clouds, countless blue-white bolts of lightning were attracted by nearby metal objects, instantly igniting within them and causing explosions!

"Wow! Nami is so strong! I can't fall behind! Going Merry 60 Million Volt Laser Cannon!" Lightning flashed across the entire warship, and a ship made of lightning appeared! At the very center of the ship's bow, a plasma shell the size of a human head erupted from the cannon muzzle, accompanied by Going Merry's shout, its target aimed directly at the battered and charred Fire Mountain, who was teetering in mid-air! But it was instantly cleaved in two by the opponent's imbued with Haki!

"Zzzzt!" At the same time, countless bolts of lightning erupted from the shattered plasma ball, and based on their senses, they turned back and struck the opponent's body!

"These pirates! They are not to be underestimated!" He spat out the charred cigar in his mouth and, enduring the numbness that prevented him from moving, plunged into the seawater, using the power of the water to dispel the lightning and regain his mobility!

.

"Hey! Hold on tight to the handrails, we're about to be hit!" Franky yelled, gripping the helm and watching the warships darting in from both sides. They absolutely couldn't afford to be knocked down now; that would only make it harder to escape!

"I'll do it!" Mia, who was in charge of clearing the sailors who were climbing onto the ship, gritted her teeth and slid at high speed after abandoning the sailors who were climbing onto the ship one after another. The long sword in her hand shimmered with a strange purple-gold light!

"Moonfall!" With her clear shout, a crescent-shaped blade of purple-gold energy, about three meters long, shot out from the tip of the sword!

A few meters after it left Mia's body, it instantly expanded into a purple-gold energy blade with a diameter of tens of meters, slashing across the warship that was about to touch the ship's side!

"Boom!"

"Crack!" The two warships collided with a deafening sound! The warship that Mia had previously slashed could no longer maintain its original shape and was bent by Franky's control. The entire bow of the ship was pulled to the side and rolled by the powerful friction between them!

"Wow! We finally made it out! That felt so good! Well done, Mia!" Franky gazed at the vast ocean, his huge forearms clasped together, his whole body leaning forward as he roared with joy, giving a thumbs-up in praise!

"You're still far behind Mebius and the others!" Mia laughed as she looked at his praise made in such a shameful and indignant gesture.

Raising the longsword in his hand, he narrowed his eyes as he gazed at the still-dissipating purple-gold starlight emanating from it. Was this a gift from that unknown person? He had originally planned to create an opening so that the warship could make contact and then tear it apart, but he hadn't expected that with its enhancement, it would directly pierce through the warship, which was tens of meters tall, with a single sword strike!

"Since you shine like stars, from this day forward you will be my 'Star Mark' sword!"

Upon hearing Mia's name, the entire longsword instantly shone brightly, as if surrounded by stars!

"An elf!" Mia immediately sensed that the longsword in her hand was no ordinary object! It belonged to an elf, just like the altar on Merry and Mebius! Who was he, and why would he give her such a precious weapon? This made her question the way he addressed her as "Queen." And her own regenerative abilities were even more perplexing. Was it truly a genetic trait inherited from her family? Before she could ponder these questions further, she was startled awake by a series of urgent shouts.

"Hey! Hey! Chopper! Chopper!" Sanji shouted urgently after landing on the ship!

"Here! Here!" Upon hearing Sanji's shout, Chopper immediately ran out of the cabin!

"Jack is injured!"

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Who's the doctor?!" Chopper yelled in panic upon hearing that Jack was injured!

"Idiot! You're the doctor!"

"Oops! I forgot I'm a doctor!" Chopper smiled sheepishly and hurriedly went forward to examine him!

"These pirates are ignoring us! Die!" The neglected marines roared and raised their swords to slash forward!

"Banquet desk!"

"Thunderclouds!"

"Three-wheeled flowers, please!"

"Powerful right hand!"

"Starfall!"

A series of attacks caused figures to fly through the sky, and the entire scene was instantly cleared.

"I can't open this cloud!" Chopper shouted, pointing at the cloud ball!

"I'll do it!" Mia stepped forward, her longsword slicing through the clouds. Chopper stretched out his hoof and pried it open from the gap, revealing Jack inside. At this moment, the hair on his waist was dyed blood red!

"Luckily, it wasn't too heavy! The armor made of Iron Cloud stopped it!" Chopper picked out a few white fragments from his blood-red fur, checked the wound, and replied. He then took out medicine and began to treat the wound.

"Thank goodness I'm alright!" Sanji replied, exhaling the cigarette smoke from his mouth. This was an opportunity he had risked his life for, and if anything happened to him, he absolutely couldn't let him off the hook!

"Oh!"

"Charge! Catch these pirates!" At the same time, the ships behind were also being boarded by the marines who were leaping and fighting towards them!

"Blazing Barbecue!" Upon hearing the sounds of slashing and killing, Sanji's entire body burst into flames, transforming his rage into fire. He stomped his foot and his entire body vanished instantly, reappearing in the crowd!

"What's wrong with him?" Nami asked, waving her Clima-Tact and guiding the lightning to strike.

"I guess he felt guilty seeing Jack's internal injuries, Moonfall!" Mia replied, and a crescent-shaped giant blade, tens of meters wide, slashed towards the warship that had boarded the ship and extended into the distance!

"Wind Cannon!" Seeing Mia's movement, Franky's arms swelled up like balloons, and a large amount of gas gushed out from the steel pipes between his hands, destroying the half of the bow that was stuck on the ship's side!

.

"Severing the Void!" Mapi spotted Luffy and immediately drew her sword to intercept the blade that was about to strike him!

"Mabi! You won?" Luffy replied, jumping far away as he saw Luffy come to the rescue.

"We won! The ship has already sailed out! We need to get out of here quickly!" Maggie jumped to Luffy's side, who had already moved the battle from the air to the A-Team, and replied.

"Oh! Let's go!" Luffy, seemingly oblivious to the several bleeding knife wounds on his body, immediately nodded in agreement.

“I’ll carry you!” Mabi said, looking at the flying squirrel carrying a longsword as it approached.

"Straw Hat Boy has caused such a huge mess! Did I say you could leave?"
