"Shadowbind."
At the same time, the shadow reflected forward on the ground suddenly turned into dark tentacles, wrapping around Bonnie's body in an instant.
The moment the shadow tentacles controlled Bonnie, the battle was over.
Whether it was Ulquiap or Bonnie, a supernova with a bounty of around 200 million, they were powerless against Mod's overwhelming strength.
"Ahh!!!"
Bonnie struggled hard.
But no matter how hard she struggled, the shadow tentacles remained motionless like solid shackles.
Her arms, which were restrained by the shadow tentacles, could not move, let alone touch Maud, who was close at hand.
Maud looked at Bonnie's straight right hand and said calmly: "To be on the safe side, let's cut off your hand first."
As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his knife towards Bonnie's arm.
Bonnie's eyes narrowed sharply. No matter how angry and unwilling she was, she seemed to have foreseen the next outcome.
Just when Qiu Shui was about to cut off Bonnie's arm, a "bear paw" appeared out of thin air and blocked the knife for Bonnie.
Qiu Shui's blade was deeply embedded in the "bear's paw". Instead of hurting the "bear's paw", it bounced back.
"Bear?"
Maud sheathed the knife steadily and looked in surprise at the person who suddenly stabbed him with a palm - Bartholomew Bear.
The bear slowly retracted his palm and straightened his body. No emotion could be seen in his lens-like eyes, even on his angular face.
He first glanced at Maude expressionlessly, and then looked at Bonnie who was restrained by the shadow tentacles.
At this moment, Bonnie stared at the bear that suddenly appeared with wide eyes, as if she had seen something incredible.
"Bonnie."
Xiong's tone was as gentle as ever.
But while calling out Bonnie's name, she raised her palms again.
But Bonnie didn't notice the bear's movement of raising his palm at all. As if she finally saw her long-lost relatives, her expression became excited.
When she opened her mouth to speak, the bear slapped her.
Bonnie's excited expression suddenly froze, and she watched helplessly as the bear's paw fell on her body.
Snapped-
With the sound of bursting bubbles, Bonnie, who was slapped by the bear's paw, disappeared out of thin air, leaving only a circle of sand ripples on the ground.
After swatting Bonnie away, Xiong silently stared in a certain direction.
Having lost the ability to reveal emotions, he remains expressionless.
Maude looked at the bear's back, suddenly understood something, and silently sheathed the autumn water.
"Bear, you came just in time."
If the bear had arrived two seconds later, Bonnie would have lost both arms.
Now it seems that the previous actions of the crew members of the Bonny Pirates to die were not meaningless.
The bear turned and looked at Maud.
"I'll keep the appointment."
Not wanting the topic to involve Bonnie, Xiong expressed his intention directly.
After hearing this, Maud nodded slightly and did not bother to raise the topic of Bonnie's identity.
"follow me."
After saying a few words, Maude went straight to Apu, who was lying unconscious on the ground.
Before fulfilling the agreement with the bear, Maude must first deal with Apu and Ulki, who has sworn allegiance.
Chapter 34 Do me one last favor
At first, I simply wanted to see Luo's progress over the past year, but I didn't expect there would be unexpected gains.
Mod crossed over the corpses of the Radio Pirates crew members and came to the unconscious Apu.
This supernova, with a bounty of 260 million Baileys, has the experience points that Mod needs, as well as a high-level Devil Fruit.
Under Xiong's silent gaze, Mod picked up Apu with one hand and then walked towards Urki, who was also seriously injured and unconscious.
Ignoring the crew members of the Monk Pirates who were stunned by the King's Haki on the way, Mod picked up Urki's back collar with his other hand.
Then, he carried Apu on his left and Urki on his right, and walked towards Xia Qi's bar.
This slightly funny scene was seen by the surrounding bystanders. Instead of finding it funny, they felt chilled.
Who are Apu and Urki
That's one of the supernovas that's in the spotlight this year.
Not to mention anything else, the combined bounty for the two of them alone is a full 480 million.
But even a cutting-edge pirate of this level was directly eliminated by Mod in a few strokes.
And it was as miserable as a dead dog, being carried and dragged around by Maud at will.
"The gatekeeper of the new world is well-deserved..."
A pirate who had just arrived in the Shampoo Islands looked at Mod's back from a distance and raised his trembling hand to wipe the cold sweat from his face.
“What’s the point of us going through so much trouble to get here?”
The companion next to him looked pessimistic.
The pirate looked at his companion silently and felt confused.
yes.
Why not be a happy little pirate in the South China Sea and have to go to the Grand Channel
Now, a monster that can cut up supernovae like vegetables is standing at the door, telling them in a different way - the weak will retreat.
Even though they have not yet gone to the new world in person, they can already imagine the horrors of the new world.
Under the horrified gaze of onlookers, Maude and the bear left the scene one after another.
Luo, who was cleaning up the mess, also noticed the bear's arrival.
"Bartholome Bear..."
Luo silently looked at the bear following Maud.
Although they had met and talked to each other many times, there was no friendship between him and the bear.
However, this king's Shichibukai, known as Tyrant Bear, seems to be very close to Mod.
Luo watched Maud and Xiong go to Xia Qi's bar, and began to repair the Yelchman mangrove tree that had been made a big hole by Maud's dominance.
He used the ability of the surgical fruit to make two huge bundys out of the turf on the ground, and then attached them to the big hole in the Alqiman mangrove tree in a perfunctory manner.
After completing the repair work, Luo and the crew members who were at the scene walked towards Xia Qi Bar.
After returning to Sharkey's Bar, Maud and the Bear were not seen.
On the contrary, Apu and Urqui, who were seriously injured and unconscious, were randomly thrown in the corner.
"Hey, where are the Mords?"
Luo glanced at Apu and Urqui who were leaning against the corner, and then looked at Perona who was eating dessert in front of the bar.
Feeling Luo's gaze, Perona paused with her fork in her hand and snorted coldly, pretending not to hear.
Luo frowned, strode to Perona, looked down at Perona with cold eyes.
"Where are the Mords?"
Luo, who possesses the attributes of a straight man, repeated the question in a cold tone.
Perona threw away a negative ghost with a backhand.
How could Luo have thought that Perona would take action without saying a word? He was unprepared and was directly penetrated by the negative ghost through his chest. He immediately fell to the ground and fell into an extremely negative state.
"snort."
Perona didn't bother to overdo it and continued to eat the dessert.
Inside the bar.
Xia Qi shook his head and laughed. He looked at Luo who kept mumbling negative words and said with a smile: "Mod and Xiong seem to have 'business' to talk about. They may be at the top of the tree now. By the way, Maud asked you to help that Big guy, take care of the injury."
As he said this, Xia Qi pointed at Ulki with the finger holding his cigarette.
Luo You heard Xia Qi's words, but he was in a negative state and lacked the "motivation" to stand up.
... ...
On the top of the Yarkman mangrove tree.
"The scenery is nice."
Maude sat cross-legged on the tree crown, looking at the blue sky and white clouds and the sparkling sea in the distance.
Unlike Maud, who was sitting cross-legged casually, Bear stood to one side, holding a book in his hands.
He seemed to have no interest in the beautiful scenery in front of him. He just lowered his head and silently looked at the bubbles floating high in the sky and suddenly shattering not far away.
Maud turned her head and looked at the bear's profile, and suddenly asked: "How much time is left?"
"There are still 10 days, 4 hours and 52 seconds left before the final 'transformation'. By then, my consciousness will completely dissipate."
Xiong's tone was very calm, as if he was talking about something as ordinary as drinking water and eating.
"Ten days..."
Maud sighed softly, held her cheek, and said seriously: "Although I am not completely sure, I am confident that I can fulfill the agreement. Before that, just treat it as hibernating for a while, bear."
"good."
The bear responded, still staring at the bubble not far away.
A glimmer of hope...
He muttered to himself.
He was already mentally prepared, but he didn't expect that Mod would bring him a glimmer of hope.
only,
Whether it succeeds or not depends on fate.
Thinking of this, the figures of Bonnie, Long, Sabo and others flashed in Xiong's mind.
These precious memories will be erased in ten days.
If you can wake up again, these memories...
Xiong shook his head slightly and looked at the somewhat elusive man beside him. Before leaving, he finally asked a question he wanted to answer.
"Maude, where do you stand?"
"position?"
Maude raised her eyebrows and said calmly: "I don't have that kind of thing."
“…”
The bear was a little surprised and stared down at Maud's face.
Maud could feel the probing meaning in that gaze, and had a vague insight into the bear's motive for asking this question.
After a moment of silence, Maud smiled and said: "Don't worry, no matter where I end up standing, I can never be an enemy of the 'revolution'."
With that said, Maud stood up slowly, put his hands in his pockets, and looked at the sea in the distance.
"Actually, I have no interest in the 'path' of the Revolutionary Army at all, but Sunny is my family, so the dream she pursues will also be my dream."
“…”
The bear looked at Maud silently.
Perhaps he was recalling the crossroads he had faced in his life. Even though he had already gotten the answer, Xiong still asked another question that made him even more curious.
