This monster, which has successively killed top powerhouses such as Charlotte Lingling, Barrett, and Hawkeye, will definitely destroy the advantages they have gained once it enters the battle.
"Is he planning to go to war?"
"It's impossible, in such a short time..."
Some pirates were vaguely aware of Mod's intentions, and felt a wave of excitement in their hearts.
They believed that Moder chose to stand on the sidelines when the battle started in order to adjust his breath and regain his strength.
The members of the Mod Pirates fought so hard to give their captain enough recovery time.
After making this judgment, they felt that Mod would not join the war so soon.
Therefore, before Mod enters the war, it is their opportunity to expand their advantage as soon as possible.
Not only would it be possible to wipe out all the combat members of the Mod Pirates, but at least half of the opponent's combat power would be wiped out.
In this way, the chance of defeating the Mord Pirates will be higher.
But if Maud goes to war now...
The advantages they have managed to build up will fall apart in an instant, significantly lowering their chances of winning.
in the air.
While Marco was fighting Lafayette, he still had the energy to pay attention to Maud on the throne.
Although it was unclear where Maud had gone and what she had done.
But he sensed Mod's intention to join the battle.
"But at this time..."
Marco's eyes narrowed slightly.
After giving them some time, they would be able to tear a hole in the Mord Pirates' body, and then slowly widen the hole.
But Mod obviously did not intend to give them this opportunity.
"Phoenix Seal."
During the fierce battle, Marco suddenly changed his tactics.
A powerful and heavy Phoenix Seal crossed the defense line and kicked Lafayette hard on the chest.
The huge impact caused Lafayette to vomit blood and fly backwards.
There is a gap in domineering skills, and the ability is restrained by the immortal flames.
Lafayette simply couldn't resist Marco's attack.
It is not easy to persist for such a long time.
And just now Marco's Phoenix Seal, which can release a powerful shock wave close to the body, directly caused Lafayette serious injuries.
If the fight continues, Lafayette will be completely defeated in less than ten rounds.
Lafayette endured the pain and managed to steady himself in the air.
"Ahem."
Lafayette clutched his chest, which was in severe pain, and the blood he coughed up fell to the ground like raindrops.
"Sure enough, there is no 'opportunity' at all."
While coughing up blood, he stared at Marco, who was covered in blue flames, his eyes as cold as a poisonous snake ready to strike.
Although he is very reluctant, he is indeed not as strong as Marco.
And when it comes to the choice of the second Devil Fruit, the offensive nature of his Sound Fruit ability is just a decoration in front of Marco's Phoenix form and has no value.
"You are strong, but not enough, yoyi."
Marco looked at Lafayette, who still had the strength to fight.
Before Mod goes off the field, he must at least make Lafayette lose his fighting ability.
call-
The green flame wings suddenly stretched out to both sides, and the spilled flames fell like catkins.
Marco transformed into a phoenix and dived straight towards Lafayette, very fast.
"Blue Flame Vortex!"
The green flames from the immortal bird suddenly bloomed, condensed into a vortex and bombarded Lafayette's body.
Lafayette tried its best to defend, but due to the impact of the injury, the defense quickly collapsed.
The vortex of green flames mixed with domineering force shook away Lafayette's staff and sword, and then hit him.
"Pfft..."
Under the heavy blow, Lafayette vomited blood again and his body flew backwards.
If it weren't for the resilience brought by the animal phantom species, Lafayette, who had sustained two heavy blows in succession, would have definitely lost consciousness on the spot.
The vortex of blue flames that knocked Lafayette away dispersed the flames, revealing Marco's figure.
"Not even close!"
Marco's eyes were sharp as he flapped his wings and pursued Lafayette.
He wanted to give Lafayette a real final blow before Lafayette could straighten his body.
Otherwise, the self-healing power possessed by the animal phantom beast species would allow Lafayette to return to the battlefield.
On the dark throne.
Maud's eyes were filled with red luster as she looked at Lafayette who had retreated.
His knowledge revealed Lafayette's unwillingness.
But there is nothing we can do about it.
Many times, it's not that you are too weak, but that the enemy is too strong.
"You've done a great job, Lafayette."
Maude whispered to herself, then looked at Marco.
Even without seeing and hearing, one can still see Marco's determination to give Lafayette the final blow.
But how could Maud turn a blind eye.
From the perspective of the Whitebeard Pirates, it is understandable to assume that Mod will consume a lot of physical strength and domineering energy after defeating Charlotte Lingling, Barrett, and Hawkeye one after another.
But in fact, instead of using up any physical strength and domineering power, Mod was in an unprecedentedly powerful state.
Maud slowly stood up from the throne and immediately took a step forward.
Uh-huh!
The moment his right foot landed on the ground, Maud disappeared into thin air.
at the same time.
A dark arc of lightning appeared out of thin air in front of Marco's eyes.
"Um?!"
Marco was startled, and the sight and color were frantically reporting danger.
Time seemed to slow down extremely slowly at this moment.
Without any hesitation, Marco suddenly stopped his body, and like a frightened beast, he quickly retreated a long distance in the air.
As he retreated, a slash entwined with dark lightning arcs fell from before his eyes.
But this slashing sword fell towards the battlefield below unabated.
There are people everywhere.
The pirates who were fighting bloody battles suddenly realized the danger.
They looked up subconsciously.
I saw the dark slash falling on my head, like a black curtain hanging from the sky.
A strong sense of crisis came over me.
The faces of the pirates who were shrouded in the attack range changed greatly.
After Kankan reacted, he was completely wiped out by the slash that fell from the sky without any resistance.
boom!
Just a moment.
A huge slash mark appeared on the battlefield.
The pirates who were standing on the slash mark were all shattered to pieces and killed on the spot.
The other pirates who were closer to the slash mark could be said to have had a brush with death.
They looked at the instigator, Maude, with lingering fear, unable to conceal their horror.
The strongest man in the world…
Take action!
This is undoubtedly the worst news for them.
High in the sky.
Maud withdrew her autumn water and ignored the many frightened looks from below. Instead, she looked back at Lafayette, who was flapping his wings and struggling to stay in the air.
"Are you okay?"
"Hoho, small problem."
Lafayette forced a smile and sighed: "I disappoint you, Captain."
"Nothing."
Maude shook her head and smiled: "You have done a good enough job, Lafayette."
“Hoo ho…”
Even though Maude was so relieved, Lafayette still looked bitter.
The outcome of this battle was of great significance to him.
If he can defeat Marco, it means that he is qualified enough to serve as the second-in-command of the Mord Pirates.
However, he failed to seize this opportunity, and it can be said that he failed without any suspense.
"Lafayette."
Maud could see the disappointment in Lafayette's heart, and said softly:
"Your excellence has never been measured by force. Don't forget, you are my guide. Without you, how could I stand at the top now?"
"Captain..."
When Lafayette heard this, his eyes suddenly burst into bright light, and he was moved beyond words. He could only put his hand on his chest, bend down and bow his head, and salute Maude slowly and forcefully.
Maud smiled and then looked at Marco in front of him.
"Very sharp, the second-in-command of the Whitebeard Pirates."
“…”
Marco did not answer, but looked at Maude solemnly.
Even if he possesses the self-healing ability of a phoenix, he can still tell.
If he had been killed by Maude just now...
The battle will end immediately.
Because Mod's speed is too fast, once he is hit by a strike first, it is basically impossible to prevent subsequent pursuits.
"I'm very curious, in less than half an hour, to what extent the 'stamina and domineering energy' you consumed in the battle can be restored to, yo yi."
This battle is inevitable, and Marco is ready to attack.
Hearing Marco's words, Maude raised her eyebrows slightly, and instantly understood why the other party said such things.
