When Sabo uses the Transparency Fruit ability, he not only makes his body transparent, but also smells, breaths, movements, and even sounds that are different from matter.
It is precisely because of this that the Straw Hats were able to directly touch the vicinity of the execution platform under Sengoku's nose.
If Luffy, a fool, hadn't made an opening statement when he appeared, he wouldn't have attracted so many eyes.
"Can't feel the breath..."
Mod used his sense of sight to "search" two or three times, but still couldn't find Sabo's location.
Theoretically speaking, it is very likely that Sabo, and even an unknown number of revolutionary troops, are not nearby.
But Mod was quite sure that Sabo and the others were nearby, but they had not yet released the power of the transparent fruit.
"How many troops will the Revolutionary Army... mobilize?"
Mode did not continue to waste energy looking for Sabo, she put away her knowledge and turned to look at Fujitora.
Although he couldn't find Sabo's location, Moder could roughly guess Sabo's movement pattern.
He and Sengoku were guarding the execution platform, and under the execution platform, Fujitora used gravity to force the Straw Hats into a desperate situation.
In this case, if Saab is still in a transparent state, there is a high probability that he will directly attack Fujitora.
Just as Maud predicted.
When he looked at Fujitora, less than three seconds had passed.
Behind Fujitora, a figure wearing a top hat and holding a steel pipe suddenly appeared.
Astonishingly, it was Sabo who Maud had just searched for two or three times with his sense of sight, but couldn't find him.
"How can you keep holding people down?"
Sabo revealed his body, and while muttering to himself, he raised his high-level weapon color high and slammed it into the back of Fujitora's head.
With the help of the transparent fruit ability, this sneak attack sap has a very high hit rate.
It's a pity that the person Sabo faced was Fujitora...
Almost as soon as Sabo revealed his figure and made a sneak attack, Fujitora quickly turned around, and the cane knife in his hand suddenly unsheathed, blocking the steel pipe that Sabo had smashed down with all his strength.
clang! ! !
The steel pipe hit Fujitora's staff and sword, and a burst of dazzling sparks burst out.
The confrontation between the armed colors caused the intersection of the steel pipe and the staff and knife to sparkle with black arc-shaped energy.
Fujitora successfully received the sneak attack without even releasing the gravity field suppressing the Straw Hats.
His eyes with some whites exposed looked directly at Sabo, and he sighed: "What is the power of the transparent fruit... It reminds me of some interesting past events."
"Hey, you must be able to 'see' me, you fake blind man!"
Sabo looked at Fujitora with solemn eyes, pouring endless power into the steel pipe, but was unable to get any further.
It only took a brief confrontation for Sabo to realize that the man in front of him was undoubtedly a complete monster.
Fujitora didn't say anything. He put gravity on the staff and sword and pressed Sabo's steel pipe down in one fell swoop.
"Um?"
Sabo was startled. He felt that the force coming from the steel pipe became heavier, and he was instantly at a disadvantage in the strength competition.
In this case, you should decisively release your force and retreat to avoid being squeezed out of the loopholes.
But Saab is gritting its teeth and resisting.
This was an unwise move, and Fujitora had a keen sense of something.
And at this moment, the stone floor under Fujitora's feet began to rise and fall violently like a wave without any warning.
"Underground..."
Fujitora was a little surprised.
The violently undulating ground pushed him away.
When Sabo saw this, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly.
Taking advantage of Fujitora's loss of balance, while withdrawing the steel pipe, he made a dragon claw gesture with his index and middle fingers together and bent with his right hand covered in military colors.
Dragon hook claw!
Sabo went straight for Fujitora's face.
Fujitora remained calm and blocked Sabo's dragon hook with his sword.
Clang—
Although Fujitora blocked the dragon's hook, he was knocked away while in the air.
At the same time, the gravity field covering the Straw Hats disappeared.
"Jasmine, great job."
After repelling Fujitora, Sabo glanced at the ground that stopped stirring, and then looked at Ace on the execution platform.
at this time,
Ace's eyes widened and he looked at Sabo blankly, feeling an indescribable sense of familiarity.
"Yo, Ace."
Facing Ace's gaze, Sabo smiled and said, "Why, don't you recognize me?"
"Saab...!!!"
Ace's expression was shocked, and his eyes showed an incredible light.
Chapter 90 Suffocation
When a brother who has been dead for many years appears in front of you in this way.
What kind of mood would that be
Bewildered, shocked, ecstatic, like in a dream
The unspeakable surprise hit Ace's heart.
The appearance of Sabo and the desperate efforts of his father and his companions to rescue him brought about a touching feeling that touched the depths of his soul.
The man who decided to accept his fate calmly could no longer hold back the tears.
"Saab, you...!!!"
Ace's eyes filled with tears, and when he looked at Sabo, he still felt a little bit like he was in a dream.
Sabo looked up at Ace and said with a smile, "We haven't seen each other for so many years, how come you have become as crying as Luffy?"
"It's obviously you who disappeared for so long without permission."
"Ah, actually I didn't even expect that..."
Sabo raised his head and pressed the brim of his hat, stopped talking in time, and said seriously: "Anyway, let's leave together first..."
"Ace, we are here to save you!!!"
Luffy's loud voice interrupted Sabo's words.
He was blown away by Sengoku's palm, but he seemed to be fine.
After all, when he fell to the ground just now, Robin's soft spider web helped him absorb most of the impact.
Luffy, who couldn't wait to rescue Ace, turned on second gear and came to Sabo's side as quickly as possible.
The three brothers, who had been separated for many years, reunited again in this way.
rumble-
A crack appeared on the ground.
Jasmine, one of the four commanders of the Revolutionary Army, wearing a miniskirt, emerged from the cracks in the ground.
Just now, it was his timely assist that allowed Sabo to successfully defeat Fujitora and relieve the gravity field pressing on the Straw Hats.
"You guys, this kind of occasion is not suitable for reminiscing about old times!"
In the current race against time, Jasmine gave a timely reminder.
Sabo nodded and turned to look at Mod, who was standing next to Ace.
There was no greeting or any unnecessary expression of emotion, as if he was looking at a stranger.
The current position is different, which is a necessary cover-up.
Jasmine also looked at Maud, her little mouth pouted slightly, and she struggled to resist the urge to greet Maud intimately.
Are only Sabo and Jasmine here
Or maybe, he's hiding something
Maude calmly looked at the Straw Hats and Sabo who surrounded the execution platform.
The situation on the field began to become a bit unoptimistic for the Navy.
At least,
Before the navy can deal with the beasts, the number of troops that can return to defend the execution platform in time is quite limited.
However, with Fujitora's monster-level combat power, even if the Straw Hats and the Revolutionary Army break through, Ace will not be able to be rescued so easily.
"Luo should have hidden it well."
While Maude was thinking, she suddenly thought of the situation on Luo's side, and immediately took a look at the situation on Whitebeard's side.
The appearance of the Straw Hats and the Revolutionary Army out of thin air was like blowing the halftime whistle, slowing down the momentum of fighting each other on the battlefield.
After all, even Whitebeard and Akainu had a tacit understanding of stopping at the same time.
However, the reason why they stopped was to learn what happened on the execution platform as soon as possible.
When they have a general understanding of the situation, they may continue to fight in the next second.
Taking advantage of the gap between Whitebeard and Akainu's fight, Mod must catch Whitebeard's head before Sabo and the Straw Hats take action.
"Just in case, let's stop them from rescuing Ace first."
Maud's thoughts were determined, and the aura came out from his body, covering the Straw Hats below.
"Um?"
"The idol... is really coming!"
"This time, I will never fall down so easily."
Feeling the terrifying aura from Mod, the Straw Hats tensed up their nerves as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
They know the horror of Maud better than anyone else.
Usopp looked at Mod in a daze, but hesitated to speak.
The aura that enveloped him without the slightest hint of concession made Usopp realize that the favor card had no effect at this time.
Finally, it was time for Akainu to leave the execution platform to deal with Whitebeard.
Thinking that with a surprise attack, they could snatch Ace away in one fell swoop, and then leave the battlefield as quickly as possible to complete this extremely difficult rescue operation.
But they didn't expect that Mod would move directly from the midfield to the backcourt, becoming one of their biggest obstacles.
Robin subconsciously touched the protective item in his pocket.
If they were to take it out now, they would be able to resolve the obstacle that Mod had posed to them.
But…
She is very determined.
Maud will stop them, but will not kill them.
Under this premise, the only opportunity for help must be used...
In terms of timing, it might be better to use it during retreat.
Central area of the square.
Pfft—
Qing Pheasant controlled the Ice Thorn Spear to penetrate the vital points of several ferocious beasts.
