Maud snapped her fingers.
The shadow screen standing quietly in front of the high wall of the Impel City suddenly turned into a dark shield, lying across the path of the diamond-shaped light bullets flying towards it.
Boom boom boom!
Diamond-shaped light bombs landed on the dark shield one after another, triggering continuous explosions.
The pitch-black shield was suddenly blasted with gaps.
But under the control of Maud's mind, the gaps opened were quickly filled by new shadows.
After a round of bombing, the dark shield remained intact.
In a sense.
Kizaru's flash ability has the characteristics of fast speed, wide range, strong penetration, and high destructive power, which are in line with the natural system.
But in the face of Mord's weird and changeable shadow ability, Kizaru's attack method with flash ability seemed very monotonous.
In contrast, as long as Kizaru's light-speed offensive can be defended, the threat is not as great as imagined.
What should be noted is Kizaru's domineering attitude.
"Senseless behavior..."
Maude controlled a large number of shadows and built a dark wall behind Cavendish and the others that could isolate all threats.
Based on the current situation, unless the navy sends two admiral-level combat forces at the same time, it will never be able to cross the defense line set up by Mod.
However, the existence of the red-haired pirates prevented the navy from allocating combat power.
This is the fundamental reason why the Navy cannot prevent the Mod Pirates from escaping.
Otherwise, even if Mod is strong enough to suppress Kizaru, it will be impossible to block several top combat powers such as Akainu and Fujitora at the same time.
It was precisely because he saw the situation clearly that Moder dared to assert the Navy's failure.
Under such circumstances, how much trouble can Kizaru alone make
In fact, Kizaru also understood that the situation was over, but it was impossible to do nothing.
Didi!
Kizaru reorganized his offensive.
With great light and sharp sounds, various light bombs and laser beams poured towards the enemy formation.
Mod mobilized a large number of shadows in the physical state to intercept all Kizaru's attacks.
Now his shadow ability has been further advanced. Before dawn, as long as he has sufficient physical strength, he can assimilate endless shadows.
Blocking Kizaru's powerful offensive that implements the characteristics of the natural system is naturally not a problem.
After blocking Kizaru's attack, Morde did not fight back, but dodged and came to Hancock's side.
Cavendish and the others were in pretty good condition and could board the Shadow Staircase independently, but Hancock, who was seriously injured, was different.
Severe internal injuries and a broken thigh made it difficult for her to move, let alone push to the top of the city.
And of course Maude cannot abandon Hancock.
From the moment Hancock risked his life to help him without asking for anything in return, he reserved a place for Hancock.
"I'll take you up."
Maude simply picked up Hancock and didn't care about Hancock's reaction. She directly stepped on the moon step and flew to the top of the impel city.
Hancock was stunned.
She stared intently at Maud's handsome side face right in front of her, feeling that her face was hot and her heartbeat was as fast as a deer bumping around inside.
"Maud... hugged me... um..."
Hancock felt the heat transmitted from Maud's body, his whole head felt hot, and he couldn't help but groan like a groan.
"This should be a skin-to-skin kiss... So... Lady Maud and I... have established a relationship..."
Hancock's face burned red and he was thinking wildly.
She didn't know whether it was because of the serious injuries, but she felt that her whole body was weak and she could only cling tightly to Maude.
But the more this happened, the weaker she felt, unable to even lift a little finger.
not far away.
Kizaru frowned when he saw that Maud not only ignored him, but also went to rescue Hancock.
Uh-huh!
He gave up the long-range attack method like bombing, and turned into a beam of light, shooting directly at Mod.
At this moment, Jinbe attacked and forcibly stopped Kizaru.
"Um?"
Kizaru was forced to stop, frowning as he looked at Jinbei who came to get in the way.
The reason why the navy has been unable to break through the defense line of the Mod Pirates is largely due to Jinbe, who blocked most of the combat power of the Mod Pirates.
"As long as I am still breathing, I will not let you cross here."
Jinbei made a fish-man karate starting move with a solemn look on his face.
Among the people present, the only one who could fight Kizaru was Jinbei.
When Mod saw Jinbei's action of stopping Kizaru, he suppressed the idea of creating a shadow clone and sent Hancock to the top of the impel city as quickly as possible.
Chapter 324: Across most of the battlefield
Lafayette and the others were still fighting bloody battles on the battlefield.
After Hancock is settled, Maude will rush to the battlefield as soon as possible to bring Lafayette and the others back.
Before that, Mord had no time to tangle with Kizaru.
Originally, he planned to call the shadow clone to contain Kizaru, but after seeing Jinbei intercepting Kizaru, Mod finally thought that with Jinbei's strength, he should be able to block the injured Kizaru.
Mod then confidently handed over the task of intercepting Kizaru to Jinbei, and then quickly climbed to the top of the impel city and came to Luo and Philo.
at this time.
Luo and Philo are concentrating on treating Jim and Bucky who are seriously injured and dying.
Jia Ya closed her eyes and rested at the side. After a short rest, her physical strength and domineering spirit, which had been completely washed away by Lieutenant General He, somewhat recovered.
Sensing Maud's arrival, Luo did not move his eyes and continued to concentrate on treating Jim.
Jia Ya opened her eyes and looked with Philo at Mod, who was holding Hancock.
"How's it going?"
Maude put the dizzy Hancock aside, and immediately looked at Jim and Bucky whose faces were covered in blood, with a hint of worry in her eyes and a frown on her face.
Philo looked at Maude and whispered: "Red Nose is seriously injured, but it is not life-threatening, but Jim's condition is very bad. If it weren't for Luo's ability, he might have..."
Speaking of this, Philo bit the corners of his lips hard, his eyes turning red.
"It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, Jim wouldn't..."
"Little Philo."
Maud reached out and held Philo's head, and said softly: "Fighting members must protect their companions at all costs. This is a rule I set, and Jim followed this rule very well."
After a pause, Maude continued: "So you should be proud of Jim instead of blaming yourself for it."
"But, I can obviously use the 'Blood Plague Virus' to help Jim..."
Philo clenched his little hands, lowered his head and said, "If I had not hesitated at that time, Jim might not have been injured so seriously."
"Philo, if I had been here."
Cavendish, who came here, suddenly spoke out, looked at Philo with a serious expression, and said in a deep voice:
"Even if you risk your life, you will not be allowed to use the 'virus' in war as a doctor. That big guy wants to protect more than just your safety."
Philo was stunned.
Maud glanced at Philo.
Just listening to what Cavendish said, he roughly knew what happened.
Whether it was Jim or Philo, their choices and decisions were not wrong.
If I had to say it, it would be—
All factors in the world that are not conducive to oneself are actually caused by one's own lack of strength.
If you are strong enough, you can face difficulties head-on.
"Don't think too much about it, Jim will be fine."
Maude rubbed Philo's hair, then withdrew his hand, turned his head to look at the battlefield in the distance, and said seriously: "We will talk about what happens next after we leave here."
“…”
Philo was silent.
Cavendish also remained silent.
Although time was tight at the moment, Maud still wanted to get an overview of Jim's situation from Luo.
After handing Hancock to Philo, Maude walked to Luo's side, squatted down, and looked at Jim, who was shrouded in the surgical field.
Luo looked sideways at Maude who was squatting down and said in a deep voice: "I know what you want to ask..."
As he spoke, Luo suddenly paused and did not continue.
He took Philo's mood into consideration and just gave Maud a look that looked very bad.
The two have a high degree of tacit understanding.
Maud immediately understood the meaning of Luo Wang's eyes and frowned.
He had previously given Jim to Luo with confidence because he believed that Luo, who had the ability to obtain the results of surgery, could handle any injury.
As a result, even Luo is now in trouble. Maude can fully imagine how serious Jim's situation is now.
"Sister Ya."
Maud felt solemn in his heart, stood up, looked at Jia Ya, and asked, "How is your recovery?"
"Leaving here is not a problem, but only if there is no intervention from Yixiao..."
"Um."
Mod nodded to Jaya, and then looked up at the terrifying three-masted ship floating in the sky in the distance.
Such a conspicuous existence has naturally become a target for the navy.
But Shaki and Nami Chopper were guarding the ship, so the navy didn't succeed.
"Bring the ship here first. Jim's treatment requires the use of surgical instruments on the ship."
"Okay, just..."
Before Jia Ya could finish her words, she was interrupted by Mod.
"Just control it. Uncle Yixiao, I will take care of it."
"good."
Jaya nodded slightly.
If no one blocks Fujitora's gravity circle, whether they pull the terrifying three-masted ship here, uproot the entire impel city, or leave here, they will all be restrained by Fujitora's ability.
This is what Jia Ya is in trouble for, and Maude knows it all too well.
The prerequisite for leaving here is not to get rid of Kizaru's pursuit, but to make Fujitora "let go".
Maude didn't stay long, a pair of jet black wings stretched out from her back, and she immediately fluttered into the air.
As soon as he left, the Straw Hats boarded the impel city with their hind legs. They all looked up at Mod, who was flying towards the center of the battlefield.
Push closer to the city.
Jinbei and Kizaru, who were fighting, naturally noticed Mod, who was flying to the battlefield.
Kizaru suddenly exerted his strength and got rid of Jinbei's entanglement.
