One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

These abilities, which would be enough to dominate the battlefield elsewhere, are now completely ineffective against Sanji's extreme speed.

Even the Saint of Worch, who could withstand all physical attacks, was forced to grimace and writhe in pain by Sanji's flames.

"It really is the voice from the Milibella Palace... Something happened to her!?"

The three Five Elders who stood up exchanged glances, all looking puzzled.

After all, in terms of destructive power, the Milibella Palace is far stronger than these old guys. In this battlefield where the Straw Hat Pirates' captain and vice-captain are not present, how could there be an opponent that they cannot handle!?

"How to do?"

"Saint Piet, why don't you go down from the ground and check on her situation?"

The three Elders, whose view was blocked by the scorching wall of fire, were unaware of the situation at the Milibella Palace.

But when he heard Maz's suggestion, Pit shook his head.

"impossible!"

"I've tried many times already. That Black Leg Sanji is not only incredibly fast, but his Observation Haki also seems to have awakened a power that almost allows him to foresee the future..."

"I tried to get out of the fire wall several times, but he interrupted me every time."

more importantly……

Each time Sanji launched an attack, he completely killed him.

Even with the remarkable and immortal buff of eternal life, the fact that he had to experience death every so often was already making him somewhat fearful.

"Yo ho~"

"You three have actually started chatting after not seeing each other for so long!?"

Just then, a slightly teasing voice came from above the three of them.

The five elders looked up and were surprised to see Sanji, who had drunk the medicine to replenish his strength and returned.

The consumption of the Speed-Speed ​​Fruit is not low.

Even with the stamina recovery boosted by the Speed-Speed ​​Fruit, Sanji's stamina was repeatedly depleted.

There's no way around it; trying to get involved with three of the Five Elders at once always comes at a price.

Compared to the destruction caused by the three of them escaping, the Straw Hat Pirates could afford to spend a little bit of healing medicine.

Sanji knew very well that they simply didn't have the ability to deal with the Five Elders.

Therefore, at this stage, all we can do is delay as much as possible.

"but……"

"Without realizing it, Usopp has become so capable!?"

Sanji glanced subconsciously at the distant battlefield, as if his gaze could penetrate the boiling wall of fire and see what was happening there.

It is certainly gratifying to see our partners become stronger.

But if his partner's strength is too astonishing, then he has to start reflecting on himself and whether he has been too lax during this period.

He had already reached the threshold of awakening the Speed-Speed ​​Fruit, and his strength had once again caught up with the green-haired man, but he saw a powerful opponent who even he found troublesome being easily defeated by Usopp...

For a moment, Sanji felt a mix of emotions.

"Should I really curl it like this?!"

With a deep sigh, Sanji once again transformed into a dark shadow, suddenly appearing behind the Five Elders and beginning another round of torment.

……

……

at the same time.

Nasujiro, who witnessed the entire destruction of the Milibella Palace, found himself in a dilemma.

He knew very well that the purpose of the Milibela Palace was to have her body destroyed, and then, through the power of immortality, to regenerate a completely new body.

but……

Hey! Old man, what are you looking at?!

Clang!

boom!!!

A brilliant flash of fire suddenly appeared, and four blades were suspended in mid-air, unleashing a terrifying storm.

Fortunately, thanks to the Straw Hat crew's efforts, the ordinary people on the island have been evacuated.

Otherwise, the aftershocks of their battle alone would have been enough to completely transform this island.

"Are you trying to rescue your companion!?"

Zoro, who was staring at Nasujuro Sei at close range, smirked slightly, then said in a cold, mocking tone:

"Don't worry, there's no way I'm letting you pass!"

"You should probably put that idea back in your head as soon as possible."

"Instead of that...shouldn't you be getting serious for once?!"

"Your strength should be more than this, right?!"

Boom!

The moment Zoro finished speaking, a powerful pressure suddenly surged from Zoro's body, rushing forward along his blade and pressing down on Nasujuro in front of him.

The combined effect of ultimate Conqueror's Haki and its oppressive nature was perfectly fused by Zoro at this moment, unleashing a ferocious aura that only he could release.

Nasujiro, who was being suppressed by Zoro, also had a dark expression.

Part of the reason was the influence of Zoro's aura, but more so... was the contempt shown in Zoro's words.

"Kid, you'll pay for what you said!"

Clang!

Mars is shooting out in all directions.

Nasujiro suddenly exerted his strength and pushed Zoro away.

It has to be admitted... although it was obvious to anyone with eyes that Crimson had used some kind of trickery during that battle...

But being able to kill the Navy's strongest admiral, Akainu, this guy's future is immeasurable!

He was originally thinking about how to rescue Milibella Palace, but after being inspired by Zoro's momentum, he suddenly felt that killing the person in front of him was a more important thing.

"Since you want to see my true strength..."

呲——

An aura seemingly emanating from the netherworld suddenly erupted from Nasujuro Sei's body, accompanied by icy coldness, instantly freezing everything around him.

"Hmm? Is it a power similar to Brook's!?"

Sensing the completely different aura emanating from Nasujuro Sei, Zoro's brow suddenly furrowed.

At the same time, he was extremely focused, because he knew very well...

At this moment, Nasujuro Sei finally cleared his chaotic thoughts and was about to unleash the true power of a top-tier swordsman!

In an instant, the auras of the two surged and collided in mid-air.

A muffled sound like thunder suddenly erupted, and every now and then a black lightning bolt, which appeared when Conqueror's Haki clashed, would flash across the sky.

"Netherworld Abyss - Hell Slash!!!"

boom!!!

The First Generation Kitetsu, now stained black by Armament Haki, swung violently. In an instant, a massive slash that seemed to slice the entire world apart flew out from the blade and hurtled toward Zoro at incredible speed.

Upon seeing this, Zoro's face lit up with excitement, his eyes burning with fighting spirit.

"That's more like it!"

He chuckled and assumed the Three-Sword Style stance once more.

Although Nasujuro Sei hasn't managed to stain his sword black like that, a closer look reveals that the colors of the great sword Wado Ichimonji, the fine sword Soei, and even the ordinary sword Sandai Kitetsu have all changed to varying degrees.

Perhaps because he has to wield three swords at once, Zoro has not yet mastered his sword to the level of a black blade.

However, after his battle with Nasujuro Sei, he made an unexpected discovery...

Every time the Sandai Kitetsu in his hand clashed with the First Generation Kitetsu, and even when he gained the upper hand, its color seemed to become even deeper than before.

This phenomenon will become more and more obvious as Nasujuro Sei's slashes become more powerful.

It looks like...

It was as if Zoro was controlling the Sandai Kitetsu in his hand, absorbing the power of the Hajime Kitetsu.

This is perhaps a special ability that only a demon sword can possess.

That's why he wanted Nasujiro Sei to show his true strength.

If everything is really as he suspected...

He might not have to wait long before he has his own black knife!

Why is the first generation Kitetsu a supreme grade sword, while the third generation Kitetsu is relegated to the category of grade swords?

Today, let my strike prove your innocence!

hum~

As if sensing Zoro's thoughts, the demon sword Sandai Kitetsu in his hand suddenly flashed with a blood-red light, and even its blade became sharper without anyone noticing.

boom!!!

In an instant, the two powerful swordsmen vanished, only to collide in mid-air, unleashing a powerful aura.

"It's really lively here!"

at the same time.

Thousands of meters above Casey Island, a group of figures miraculously floated among the clouds, commenting on the battle below.
