One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

Just two years ago, they were a world-class pirate crew that roamed the seas and didn't care about anything except the other three emperors.

But in just one day, they witnessed far too many amazing techniques and fighting methods.

Even more frightening is...

The Straw Hat Pirates seem to possess the ability to create a large number of these powerful individuals.

After today, I believe the Straw Hat Pirates' doorstep will be trampled down by pirates and those who follow power from all over the world.

By then, the Straw Hat Pirates' territory will have grown to an unimaginable and terrifying extent.

"So, this is your purpose? Luffy, and that brat named Red?"

They were neither unfamiliar with nor acquainted with the existence of crimson.

After all, the Red-Haired Pirates spent almost a year in Windmill Town back then.

During that time, I still encountered the Crimson a few times before it had been traversed.

At the time, they just thought Chi Hong was an ordinary child and weren't too worried.

Who would have thought that such an ordinary child could help Luffy create the Straw Hat Pirates we know today?

"Cough...cough..."

A soft cough abruptly interrupted Ben Beckman's thoughts.

He looked up and saw Shanks suddenly leap out of the water and onto the open space beside him.

He coughed up the bitter seawater and shook the water droplets off his head.

"This is a bit scary~" Shanks touched the area around his heart, feeling the lingering numbness there.

In fact, rather than being knocked away by Luo, it was more accurate to say that this was the escape route he had chosen.

Shanks never expected that the attack he could easily block just now would become so terrifying after their powers were exchanged.

His resistance lasted less than half a second before Luo broke through his defenses in an instant.

And despite having just acquired the power, Luo encountered no obstacles in actual combat, instead immediately targeting Luo's vital points.

If Shanks hadn't been so experienced in combat, using the impact to send him flying, that lightning blade would have pierced his heart completely.

Even so, Shanks was still hit by Law.

Fortunately, he only lost his strength; his amazing defense and vitality meant he could withstand even a small amount of high-voltage current without any problem.

"Did they manage to dodge it?"

At the same time, Law in the air suddenly turned his head to look at Shanks, who was standing on the ground looking a little disheveled, and murmured to himself.

In the next instant, his figure flashed, and disregarding the energy consumption, he teleported back to Shanks.

The still-burning lightning blade lunged forward, slashing at Shanks' neck once more, as if ready to take his head.

The ruthlessness of their methods shocked even Shanks.

However, this cannot actually be blamed on Luo.

Because all of this is due to Law's Pokémon ability.

Law's trait: Mind's Eye, which grants him greater agility and more detailed combat vision and skills, making it easier to strike the enemy's vitals in close combat.

Because of the powerful effect of the Mind's Eye, even the power that was just plundered did not feel alien to Luo.

Even considering the characteristics of Mind's Eye, while he might not be able to wield this power more effectively than Shanks, he is certainly no less capable than Shanks in terms of controlling the details of combat.

Seeing Shanks once again use his Observation Haki to foresee his actions, Law couldn't help but marvel at the terrifying power of the Four Emperors.

But at that moment, his figure suddenly flashed, instantly teleporting to perform a double combo!

Clang!

Shanks' black blade, covered in Armament Haki, suddenly collided with the demon sword radiating lightning, unleashing a surging shockwave.

However, at that moment, Shanks' eyes widened and his body suddenly turned around.

Suddenly, Luo appeared behind him.

Shanks never expected that Law would choose to abandon controlling the sword, allowing the powerful momentum to cause the demon sword to unleash considerable power, forcing him to swing his sword in resistance.

He himself teleported directly behind Shanks.

By the time Shanks' Observation Haki sensed this dangerous situation, it was already too late.

"Finger gun injection - Venom!!!"

Whoosh...

Suddenly, Law's palm turned into a strange purplish-black color, and then he stretched out his finger and thrust it forward, colliding head-on with Shanks who had turned around!

Pfft!!!

The advantage brought by absolute power allowed Law's finger gun to break through Shanks' Armament Haki and physical defenses without any surprise.

In an instant, the surging poisonous energy condensed into terrifying venom, which was rapidly injected into Shanks' body through Law's fingers.

In no time at all, a similarly eerie purplish-black color appeared on Shanks' chest.

Seeing this, Luo's lips curled upwards, and he chuckled:

"It looks like I've won this battle!"

boom!!!

His figure flickered again and disappeared from the spot.

Immediately following, a slash bursting with red lightning suddenly struck down, unleashing considerable power.

That was the power that originally belonged to Luo.

Having trained for two years, his power might not be much to Shanks, but it would still be enough to intimidate countless powerful figures on the high seas.

The fierce slash flew out, carving a deep trench in the ground.

But seeing the ineffective slash, Shanks wore a helpless, bitter smile.

At this moment, the toxins that had entered his body began to take effect.

Shanks could clearly feel the intense pain in his chest, which made him realize why Dorry and the others had looked so miserable.

This feeling is really not something most people can accept.

He muttered to himself, but even knowing that his battle was about to begin, Shanks still did not give up.

If he gave up so easily, he wouldn't be one of the Four Emperors, Shanks the Red-Haired!

Using his Observation Haki to detect the aura, Shanks' figure flashed suddenly, slashing straight at Law like a beam of light.

Rumble rumble rumble...

Knowing that time was running out, he disregarded everything and unleashed his strongest Conqueror's Haki, a terrifying pressure that swept across the entire Underworld like a tidal wave.

In an instant, crimson lightning suddenly enveloped the entire battlefield, tearing through the sky and raging like a prehistoric beast, crushing all obstacles in its path.

Even with his power stripped away, Shanks' strength is still not to be underestimated.

With just this one skill of conqueror's haunting, even an ordinary naval admiral would be no match for him.

Unfortunately……

Admiral?

In normal times, they might be a powerful figure who could intimidate a region.

But on this battlefield right now, that's merely the threshold we're standing on!

"Still won't give up?"

A strange light flashed in Luo's eyes.

Seeing Shanks unleash his power, he simply summoned the Ghost Cry he had previously abandoned back into his hand with a single wave of his hand.

He, in turn, transformed into an arc of lightning, responding to Shanks' attack.

In an instant, the entire world seemed to become a testing ground for two gods and demons.

The domineering crimson lightning and the dazzling thunder from the Devil Fruit power surged continuously in the air, neither willing to give way.

"Gods, beware!!!"

"R·ROOM·Mental Shock!!!"

wow ——————

The two sharp longswords suddenly clashed together.

Behind the blade, the two figures now resembled two ferocious beasts, staring at each other and confronting each other amidst the surging thunder.

Neither side was willing to back down!

Chapter 523 The Own of Elbaf

The powerful fan ripped across Luo's face like a gale, but it only made his smile look even more sinister.

"It's no use, Lord Shanks." Having gained the upper hand, Law regained his composure and chuckled lightly at the gritting-teeth Shanks:

"Give up! Your Conqueror's Haki is indeed very strong, but how many attacks can it withstand?"

"With the poison in your chest, as long as I continue to stall for time, I will surely be the victor in this battle."

"So, let's not waste time and just surrender?"

"surrender?"

Although the blade in his hand was being constantly pressed down by Law, and the poison in his chest was causing his already mentally damaged brain to ache even more, Shanks still managed a carefree smile.

"If Luffy finds out that I actually surrendered to one of his subordinates, I'll never have the right to ask him for that straw hat back!"

"And kid... saying you're guaranteed to win is just too arrogant!"

"I am... Red-Haired Shanks!!!"

boom!!!

A powerful aura suddenly erupted from Shanks' body, directly shattering Law's mental attack and flowing into the longsword in his hand, adding an extra layer of sword power to it.
