Due to time constraints, the artificial devil fruits of ancient animal species that Caesar could provide could not be integrated with the artificial soldiers of the Vinsmoke family to form an invincible army.
This is the reason why the Beast Pirates failed to defeat the Mod Pirates.
At least…
Caesar and Gaji thought so.
And they who escaped from the country of Wano got together like this.
"Hey, Gaji, it's not too late to change the plan now..."
Caesar trembled and looked at the powerful Maud in the live broadcast.
He finally understood why Kaido, known as the strongest creature in the sea, land and air, fell to Mord's sword.
Gaji ignored Caesar who turned pale with fright, but stared at the live broadcast, his heart full of fear and fear.
Thanks to Festa who wanted to live broadcast the celebration process for the whole world to see at all costs, they were able to experience the terrifying power of these monsters through the live broadcast.
However, the power of an individual has its limits.
What can really determine the outcome of a war is always the size of the army!
The legion of artificial soldiers who are fearless and have eaten the artificial Devil Fruit grown in ancient times is Gaji's confidence.
despite this…
Gaji still couldn't hide his fear and fear towards Maud.
In comparison, the four Vinsmoke siblings, who were born after being transformed by blood factors, are much calmer.
After all, like the artificial clone soldiers, they don't know fear.
... ...
The terrifying barque.
Jaya stayed behind to supervise the construction process of the Sky City.
Even though I believe in the strength of Mod and the others, they are inevitably worried.
Festa's first-hand live broadcast gave Jaya an opportunity to understand the situation on site.
at this time.
She and Rayleigh were watching the live broadcast in the castle hall.
Bonnie, who was entrusted to Maud's care by the bear, was also there, as well as the Straw Hats who had been training hard on the terrifying barque.
Luffy lost interest in the celebration as Festa revealed the existence of Raphdru's Permanent Pointer before the celebration began.
He wants to find the great secret treasure and become the Pirate King.
But it will never be done this way.
then.
In the original work, the Straw Hat Pirates were supposed to attend the celebration, but now they stay on the terrifying three-masted ship, experiencing the realm and strength of the monsters through live broadcast.
"What a terrifying power..."
"How could there be such a slash?!!"
No matter how many times they experienced it, the Straw Hats were still shocked by the power shown by Mod.
Rayleigh and Jabba were also paying close attention to the battle on the screen.
From this brief confrontation, they could see that Mod had the upper hand.
However, the situation in top battles is ever-changing, and no one knows what the outcome will be until the last second.
Besides, it’s still a three-way melee…
However, they still believe that Mod's strength can stand out.
"Barrett, what you want to prove is wrong from the beginning."
Rayleigh sighed softly in his heart.
... ...
Holy place.
The deepest part of Pangu City, among the flowers.
This is a room "containing" a small forest.
Inside the room, there are green lawns everywhere, trees growing along the walls and windows, and flowers and butterflies everywhere.
Im, the real behind-the-scenes master of the World Government and the real owner of the vacant throne, sat quietly on a chair made of flowers.
On the wall covered with vines directly in front of her, a live broadcast of Shuixian Island was projected.
“…”
She remained silent, her eyes calm and deep.
It wasn't until Maud appeared on the stage that there was a trace of ripples in those eyes as deep as the dark starry sky.
"D."
She whispered to herself, and then slowly raised her right hand.
At this moment, a young man wearing a hooded white robe and a delicate face, who looked to be only eleven or twelve years old, walked across the grass and handed a reward order to Im's raised right hand. middle.
Im took the reward order, and the young man who handed it to him knelt respectfully on one side, like a servant waiting for his master's orders at any time.
"D."
Im looked down at the photo of Mod on the reward order and repeated what he had just whispered.
It's just that this time, his tone contained a hint of winter-like murderous intent.
... ... .
On the sea, which is still a long way away from Shuixianxing Island, there is a raft-like boat drifting with the current.
Hawkeye was sitting on the boat, with the black knife behind him standing like a cross.
“…”
As if aware of it, the eagle eyes raised his eyes to look in the direction pointed by the permanent pointer.
A little bit of luster slowly flashed in the sharp golden eyes like an eagle.
In every minute and every second after Festa released the news of the celebration, all the people who decided to go to Water Star Island were going to Rafdru.
Even the navy, which is preparing to eliminate most of the pirates on Shuixian Island, also intends to get the permanent pointer of Rafdru.
Only the man with eagle-like eyes on the boat really had no interest in the big secret treasure.
The reason why he came here was just to fight against the strong ones.
In a sense—
He and Barrett are the same.
Chapter 488: Can you... put some pressure on me
The celebration has just begun, and it has already touched the nerves of countless people.
No one could have imagined—
Charlotte Lingling, who leads the pirate group, will be at the forefront, shocking the entire audience.
Even more unexpected—
Mod, who is now the most famous, will appear in this way and defeat the two monsters Charlotte Lingling and Barrett in one face-to-face encounter.
The members of the Charlotte family who were fighting outside the battle circle didn't know what to do for a moment.
Reason told them that if they rashly intervened in the battle between these three monsters, they would end up dead without any body parts.
But if nothing is done, they will worry about their mother's safety.
"I'm actually worried about my mother..."
Perospero suddenly reacted and looked like he couldn't believe it.
"Is it because the opponent is that guy!"
His eyes trembled slightly, and he gritted his teeth and whispered to himself.
It wasn't that he didn't believe in his mother's strength, but that Maude's presence gave him an extremely strong sense of uneasiness.
This sudden uneasiness stems from Mod's past achievements and the intimidating power he displayed.
"Mom will not lose..."
"Besides, we can help too!"
Perospero shook his head violently and quickly adjusted his mentality.
They are not decorations.
As long as we wait for a suitable opportunity, we can join forces to help mother.
The elites of the Charlotte family who came with Charlotte Lingling suppressed the panic in their hearts and stared at the situation in the battle circle.
As for the thousands of pirates who came to the island for the permanent pointer of Rafdru, they immediately stayed away from the battle circle after Mod showed his power.
They sincerely hope that the three monsters, Maude, Charlotte Lingling, and Barrett, will be seriously injured or die in the fight.
In this way, the difficulty of competing for the permanent pointer will be greatly reduced.
Before that, they had no extra time to pay attention to the process and results of this battle. Instead, they had to seize the time to find the permanent pointer.
Nearly a hundred pirates from the pirate group took advantage of the fierce battle between Mod and the others to launch a blanket search on the island.
Festa, who controlled the overall information in the broadcast room, quickly noticed the movements of these pirate groups.
But now he was in no mood to care about this group of pirates, and all his attention was focused on the battle between Maude and Charlotte Lingling Barrett.
The strength shown by Maude made him as uneasy as Perospero.
We can only hope that Barrett can help him regain some confidence in the next round.
Within the battle circle.
Maud's eyes were glowing with red, and her sight was always locked on Charlotte Lingling and Barrett.
Although the slashing attack that combined the shadow ability and the elemental ability of Qiu Shui's black dragon form easily destroyed Charlotte Lingling's thunderous fireworks, in the end, Charlotte Lingling used the Napoleon sword to deflect the attack.
And a hundred times more bullets on the other side.
Although Barrett was pushed back a long way, Barrett relied on his strong physique to withstand the series of impacts without any problems.
When the huge warhead rotating at super high speed finally calmed down, Barrett grinned dangerously.
He did not throw away the golden warhead in his hand, but instead opened his arms to embrace it.
Crunch, crunch—
The arms holding the warhead suddenly swelled, and veins spread across the muscles like snakes.
"Give it back!"
Barrett suddenly twisted his waist, and the moment he threw the warhead away, he twisted his hands holding the warhead.
Following this action, the huge warhead flew out of the hand as if it was shot from the barrel of a gun. It spun at super high speed in flight, carrying a wave of white air visible to the naked eye and heading straight at Maud.
Mod turned his head to look at the menacing warhead, raised his hand and cut the warhead in half with a slash.
Compared to the way Barrett was retreating when he was resisting the gunfire, Maude defused the attack with a casual knife, looking very relaxed.
Barrett didn't expect that throwing the warhead with his bare hands would have any effect.
When Mod swung his sword and cut the warhead in half, he was already following closely behind and stepped into the attack range.
There are no fancy skills or moves, just a cross-legged stance, arms raised, and punches.
Then the dark blue domineering energy mixed with ghost energy was released smoothly, and wherever the fist hit, the air was almost distorted.
Faced with Barrett's close punch, Moder advanced instead of retreating, and slashed forward with the overlord-colored black dragon blade wrapped around it.
Suddenly there was a sound of wind and thunder, and the knuckle-thick black-red arc of electricity flashed away like a stream of light.
The next moment.
