Maude touched the ground with her toes, used the Shadowless Step, and her body suddenly merged into the night wind.
The next second.
Maud ducked in front of Kizaru and slashed him with his sword.
Kizaru's palms glowed with light, condensing into an Tiancongyun sword made of photons, blocking the falling autumn water.
Clang!
The energy that burst out when the swords collided cut deep grooves into the surrounding ground.
Maud's eyes were cold, giving no chance for Kizaru to fight back. The moment the swords collided, his arm suddenly exerted force and he pulled the knife sharply.
The Qiu Shui blade wrapped with a strong armament color suddenly looked like a saw, slashing down along the lightsaber.
Faced with this broaching attack focused on one point, the non-physical Tiancong Yun Sword suddenly broke.
And Qiu Shui, who cut off Tiancong Yun's sword, slashed a sword energy towards Kizaru as the blade fell downwards.
laugh!
Kizaru, who lost his Tiancong Yun Sword, was directly cut in half by this sword energy.
However, the body that was cut in half suddenly turned into dozens of streams of light, quickly converging towards the rear, and re-condensed into Kizaru's body.
As soon as Kizaru condensed his body, Maud was already chasing after him. The autumn water in his hand slashed out bursts of sword light, covering Kizaru.
Kizaru's expression was solemn, with a burst of red light in his eyes. He either moved left or right, or partially transformed into elements, trying his best to avoid the sharp slashes coming from Mod.
Facing Mod's fierce and sudden attack, Kizaru was at a disadvantage for a moment.
Although he is a natural ability user, his swordsmanship is not to say the best, but he can at least suppress Rayleigh.
However-
The non-corporeal Tiancong Yun Sword has no advantage at all in front of Qiu Shui, which has superior hardness and texture.
It can be said that Mod's draw sword just now destroyed Kizaru's idea of using swordsmanship to fight.
"It's so fierce~~~ It seems that we can only distance ourselves first..."
Kizaru, who could only avoid the attacks, gradually felt weak.
The previous move of Overlord and Barrier Breaking still had a significant impact on him.
Furthermore, Maud, who has absorbed nearly four hundred shadows, is still not inferior to him in terms of strength even if he takes away the shadows and ferrets.
Kizaru realized that he could not confront Morde head-on, so he relied on his speed advantage to decisively distance himself and get rid of Morde's quick attack.
"If I remember correctly..."
Kizaru retreated at the speed of light, a dazzling light flashed from his palm, and said calmly: "Your ability has a time limit, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a beam of light as thick as the mouth of a bowl shot towards Maud from the palm of his hand.
Maud said nothing, still did not dodge, and slashed the incoming beam of light into two halves with his sword.
Bang bang!
The split beam passed over Mord and landed behind him, causing an explosion.
A wave of air swept over him, but he couldn't catch up with Mod, who was pressing towards Kizaru again.
Kizaru made up his mind to deal with Mod, and when Mod's offensive came over again, he had no idea of counterattack, but just defended.
As long as it can delay time—
On the one hand, it can prevent Mod from exerting the value of the shadow gathering place; on the other hand, it can contain Mod, and then use one's own advantage on the battlefield to slowly eat away the people of Mod's pirate group.
Although such a strategy is despicable, it is the best choice at the moment.
At least in Kizaru's view, compared to personal victory or defeat, the most important thing is for the team to win.
Seeing Kizaru's stubborn defence, Mod quickly realized Kizaru's plan to delay time.
Although he was able to suppress the injured Kizaru, without the shadow clone and Bailey, it was unrealistic to race against time to deal with Kizaru.
However, Mod's original intention of coming to trouble Kizaru was also to restrain Kizaru.
After all, judging from the current situation on the battlefield, if Kizaru is allowed to move freely on the battlefield, just one-handed sneak attack and sniper killing method will be enough to bring disaster to everyone in the Morde Pirates.
Therefore, Moder must not let Kizaru mess around before the shadow clones cover his companions to gather in Impel Down City.
As long as he ensures that his companions can get out of the battle, Mod can take back the shadow clone and Bailey, and use his full strength to deal with Kizaru and even other navies.
Both sides are trying to contain each other, but it seems to be a bit coincidental.
Just judging from the scene -
At least in the eyes of others, Kizaru was the one who was suppressed.
And it was still the kind of situation where he was suppressed to the point where he seemed completely unable to move.
This phenomenon of being brutally suppressed happened to the general. For the navy who watched this scene, it was simply an unbelievable scene.
"General Kizaru was suppressed by Mod..."
The nearby marines looked at Maud in horror or fear.
In terms of combat power alone, the navy has the upper hand.
In this case, they should rush to Kizaru's aid.
However, the suppressive power shown by Mod made them hesitate for a moment.
At this moment, a burst of golden light came from behind them.
"Um?"
"The Great Inspector of the Warring States Period...!!!"
The navy suddenly turned around, and what they saw was Warring States in the form of a giant Buddha.
After a moment of rest, Warring States regained the ability to re-enter the field.
"What are you doing standing there?! Why don't you hurry up and help Porusalino!!!"
Bathed in golden light, Warring States quickly passed by the navy present with a look full of coercion.
"yes!"
The marines were refreshed and rushed towards Maud.
Naturally, it was impossible for Warring States to watch the show from the sidelines.
With sufficient combat power on our side, besieging Mod is the inevitable result.
After all this is a war, not a duel.
He led a group of naval elites and prepared to intervene in the battle between Morde and Kizaru.
But just as they were about to take action, a graceful voice came quickly and blocked them in front of them.
"I will not let you pass here."
The person coming was Hancock, who had rushed all the way from Impel Down City.
She raised her chin high and looked at the navy who were preparing to besiege Mod with a contemptuous attitude.
"It's the Empress...!!!"
Seeing Hancock coming out of the way, the marines' expressions changed.
Warring States frowned and looked at Hancock who had stepped in, and asked in a deep voice:
"Hancock, why do you want to help Morde when you have never met him? You should know very well what your country will face if you voluntarily give up your identity as the Shichibukai!"
"Compared to such a trivial matter, I will never allow you to interfere with Maud!"
Hancock still had a condescending attitude, but when he mentioned Maud's name, a blush appeared on his fair face.
"Little things?"
Warring States was stunned.
Immediately afterwards, all the navy, including him, noticed the admiration Hancock showed when he mentioned Maud's name.
"Isn't it?!"
"Did the Empress fall in love with Bacardi Maud at first sight?!!"
"How is this possible..."
"Even though Bacardi Maud is very handsome, the Empress never takes any man seriously..."
The navy who were still wondering about Hancock's motives were all surprised and incredulous.
Warring States' face darkened.
It was unimaginable that the empress, who had always been cold and unkind, would ignore the situation of her country in order to help Maud.
But the crux of the matter is...
According to the intelligence possessed by the Navy, there has never been any intersection between Maude and Hancock.
What is the reason that makes Hancock do this
Is it really because Maud is so charming that Hancock fell in love at first sight
He admitted that with Mod's appearance and charm, he could indeed be said to be unrivaled in the pirate circle.
Even Cavendish, who was known as a noble prince, had to bow down to Maud's aura.
But…
What a joke!
Sengoku really couldn't accept such an outrageous reason.
Even if this reason is indeed very close to the truth.
Sengoku took a deep breath.
Seeing that Hancock had made up his mind, he said no more and pushed his palm towards Hancock.
The shock wave burst out from the palm of his hand and hit Hancock in the blink of an eye.
"whispering sound."
Although Hancock didn't want to give in, it was an attack from a former navy marshal after all. She couldn't help but use her amazing foot power to quickly get out of the attack range of the shock wave.
"Prisoner's Arrow!"
After dodging Sengoku's attack, Hancock raised his hand and materialized a pink heart. He pulled and pulled it, ignoring Sengoku's existence, and instead shot love arrows at the navy.
"Don't take it hard!"
Zeng Guo's eyes narrowed slightly and he reminded him loudly.
The marines on the field reacted quickly and spread out in all directions to avoid the prisoners' arrows.
However, more than ten marines were accidentally hit by arrows and turned into stone on the spot.
"Damn empress...!!!"
The sailors who had escaped the disaster looked at their colleagues who were turned into stone on the spot with lingering fear.
If they had failed to escape, they would have suffered the same fate.
Facing the curses of the navy, Hancock did not pretend to be pitiful at this time, his expression was as cold as ice, and he once again manifested a pink heart.
She planned to ignore Sengoku for the time being, and then use the prisoner's arrow to turn all these marines into stone.
Only in this way will no cats or dogs be allowed to disturb Mod's battle.
"Leave this to me and you go help Porusalino."
But Warring States, who had a clear mind, would not let Hancock get what he wanted. He immediately dragged his huge body and quickly attacked Hancock.
But Hancock's thinking was equally clear. Relying on the speed advantage brought by his foot strength, he left Sengoku behind and chased after the navy who planned to bypass the battle circle and go directly to find trouble with Mod.
"This woman...!!!"
The navy were all shocked when they saw Hancock ignore the Sengoku offensive and pursue him aggressively.
This woman must be crazy to do this! ! !
Will a woman who is really trapped in a love vortex turn into an unreasonable creature? ?
