“Kill them.”

No sooner had he finished speaking than a huge figure descended from the sky.

It was a giant spider.

No, it's not a spider.

She is a woman whose upper body is that of a beautiful woman and whose lower body is that of a giant spider.

Flying Six Black Maria.

She wore a charming smile, but her eyes held no laughter, only icy killing intent.

"Oh my, it's so lively!"

Her voice is very beautiful, like she's singing.

Her gaze swept across the battlefield before finally settling on Nico Robin.

"You are the son of the devil?"

Black Maria's smile deepened.

"I've always wanted to meet you."

Nicole Robin was standing on the edge of the battlefield, holding a book, seemingly oblivious to the chaos around her.

But when Black Maria's gaze fell upon her, she closed the book and looked up.

"Flying Six - Black Maria".

Robin's voice was calm, but her hands were already poised.

The Flower-Flower Fruit can be activated with just a thought.

"It seems you recognize me."

Black Maria jumped off the spider's body and landed on the ground. She was over eight meters tall, several times taller than Robin.

She looked down at Robin, her smile carrying a sense of superiority.

"I've lived in Wano Country for so many years and I've never met an archaeologist before. I heard you can decipher the Poneglyphs? That's quite an amazing skill."

Her tone sounded like a compliment, but the malice in her words was almost palpable.

"But do you know what kind of person I hate the most?"

Without waiting for Robin's reply, she continued, "It's those women who think they're so smart."

As soon as she finished speaking, Black Maria's hands suddenly transformed into two enormous scythes.

That was her weapon, a scythe coated with a deadly poison. If you were even slightly cut, the poison would spread throughout your body within seconds, paralyzing your muscles and ultimately causing you to suffocate.

She charged at Robin, using all eight of her spider legs simultaneously at an astonishing speed.

The sickle sliced ​​through the air with a sharp whistling sound.

Robin did not back down.

She crossed her arms in front of her chest and activated her power.

"Six-petaled Flower - Bending at the Waist!"

Six arms suddenly grew from both sides of Black Maria's body, and those arms grabbed her waist and twisted her violently.

Black Maria's body was twisted into an eerie angle, but she did not fall.

Because her spider body is supported by eight legs, it is as stable as if it were nailed to the ground.

"These little tricks won't work on me."

Black Maria sneered, and suddenly raised the eight legs on her spider body, thrusting them towards Robin.

The tips of those legs were as sharp as spears, and they were also coated with poison.

Robin frowned and quickly stepped back.

But the spider legs were too fast. She dodged two, then four, but couldn't dodge the sixth.

A spider leg stabbed from the side, about to pierce her shoulder.

Just then, a giant hand reached out from in front of Robin and grabbed the spider leg.

"Four-Wheel Flower - Hook Claw!"

The hand clenched suddenly, squeezing the spider's legs until they made a cracking sound.

Black Maria's expression changed.

It wasn't because of pain, but because of surprise.

"Your ability... can blossom within me?"

"Anything that is organic can be used."

Robin's voice remained calm, but her hands were trembling slightly.

Blooming on someone else requires a lot of physical strength, especially for a huge body like Black Maria, where the consumption is multiplied.

But she did not back down.

Black Maria's smile finally vanished.

"interesting."

Her body began to change; the spider form became more pronounced, her eight legs grew thicker, and the hairs on her body turned into hard barbs.

She no longer holds back her strength.

Humanoid form, Spider Fruit, Ancient Species, Ancient Wolf Spider form.

This is her true fighting form.

"Now, let's have some fun."

Black Maria raised all eight of her legs at the same time, like eight spears, and thrust them toward Robin.

The speed is twice as fast as before.

Robin quickly crossed her arms and activated her ability.

"Thirty-round Flower - Suspended!"

Thirty arms grew from the buildings surrounding the battlefield, grabbing the spider's legs and holding them tightly.

Black Maria's body was pulled, her eight legs dangling in mid-air, unable to move.

But she didn't panic.

A smile curved her lips.

"You think this is the end of it?"

Her mouth opened, and she spat out a huge spider web.

Spiderwebs rained down on Robin, so fast that he didn't have time to react.

Robin's eyes widened.

She tried to get away, but the spider web was too big, covering an area of ​​dozens of meters in radius, leaving her nowhere to hide.

The spider web landed on her, binding her tightly.

The spider silk was extremely sticky and incredibly tough; the more one struggled, the tighter it became.

Robin lay on the ground, unable to move.

Black Maria descended from mid-air, her eight legs firmly planted on the ground.

She walked up to Robin, looked down at her, and a smile returned to her face.

“I’ve said it before, these little tricks won’t work on me.”

She raised one of her spider legs, the tip aimed at Robin's throat.

Farewell, son of the devil.

The spider's leg suddenly stabbed down.

A crisp sound of metal clashing rang in her ears.

An arm blocked her way.

That arm was very fair and slender; it was clearly a woman's arm.

It was this arm that single-handedly blocked the spider's leg's attack.

A knife was covered with a thin layer of gray substance, like dust or mist.

"Isn't it a bit much to hit a girl like that?"

A lazy voice came from behind Robin.

Black Maria frowned.

"who are you?"

"I?"

Rangiku tilted her head, a smile curving her lips.

Then Rangiku flicked her finger, and the spider leg was deflected.

Black Maria took two steps back, readjusting her weight on her eight legs, and watched the woman who had suddenly appeared warily.

Her intuition told her that this woman was not simple.

But Rangiku didn't look at her.

The extremely sticky spider silk was like ordinary cotton thread under Rangiku's power, breaking with the slightest pull.

Robin broke free from the spider web.

"Thank you."

"No need to thank me. You can handle her yourself. I just helped out as a side effect."

Rangiku stood up, dusted off her hands, glanced at Black Maria, then at the distant battlefield, and sighed.
