Ding!
Ross raised his hand and swiped it, and the two hook blades flew out directly. He looked at Batra, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: "Superman is a metal fruit, it is an interesting ability."
The information obtained by Kaku and others naturally included Batra's specific abilities, but Ross didn't pay attention and only heard about a metal fruit.
Now it seems that this fruit is like an advanced version of the Zhanzhan Fruit. The body is similar to the Nuo Nuo Fruit of Katakuri of the BIGMOM Pirates. It has become liquid metal and is somewhat close to the natural form.
This is a very good ability.
If it can be awakened, it will become extremely powerful and may surpass the natural system!
Hearing Ross's words, Batra grinned, caught the hook-blade arm that flew back, rushed towards Ross with a grin, and said: "Interesting? You will see... despair soon!"
Buzz!
His fist suddenly fluidized and turned into an extremely sharp spear. With his punch, it stabbed Ross in the chest.
Facing Batra's blow, Rhodes closed his fingers and punched lightly.
boom!
The fist collided with the spear. The scene in Batra's imagination of the spear penetrating Rhodes' fist did not appear. Instead, the spear began to shatter from the tip of the gun, shattering all the way down and regaining the shape of the arm.
Immediately afterwards, his arm cracked and exploded in an instant under the raging force of twisting. Blood and broken bones flew everywhere, and his whole body flew backwards.
"Ahhh!!"
Batra looked at the instantly shattered right arm and let out a shrill scream.
The atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense.
The expressions of the ferociously smiling pirates were all fixed on their faces, and in the next moment, they all turned into expressions of disbelief, and even more of them showed horror.
"The captain's arm... how is that possible?!"
"Hey, are you kidding me, Captain, Captain! You must be able to recover instantly!"
Several pirates stretched out their hands towards Batra, who was screaming and rolling on the ground, and tried to walk over, but their bodies were all frozen in place, making it difficult to take a step.
In the field.
A trace of disappointment flashed in Ross's eyes, and he walked towards Batra.
"Is this the only level? It's a pity that this fruit fell into your hands."
"No... this is impossible..."
Looking at Ross walking over, Batra's eyes showed shock and fear.
Ross's fist was actually able to shatter his metal form that was harder than steel, and it also hit his body, completely destroying one of his arms. How did he do it? !
"The frog in the well."
Ross said the last word in an indifferent tone, raised his foot and put it down.
Even though Batra's whole body melted and turned into a silvery liquid metal, it still had no effect. Ross's foot directly stepped on it and exploded, with blood and broken bones splattering everywhere.
"The bounty is 180 million Baileys. 'Mobile Weapon' Batra has completed the hunt and received the reward, 40 points of talent proficiency."
"Hohoho, I'm afraid you don't even know what domineering is? There's no chance to find out."
Lafitte, who was not far away, looked at this scene, grinned, and walked towards the remaining pirates.
When the rest of the pirates saw their captain being killed three or five times, their spines felt as cold as if they had fallen into an ice cellar. After they realized what they were doing, they all turned around and ran away without daring to stay where they were.
laugh! laugh!
Lafitte's figure flashed in the field, killing seven or eight pirates in an instant.
The remaining pirates scattered and tried to escape, but Ross raised his foot and stepped lightly. The ground rolled and surged, and instantly turned into a huge ball of earth and stone, enveloping all the others in it, crushing and obliterating them all.
Wow!
After killing all the pirates, Ross raised his hand and the soil rolled, throwing all the corpses and blood outside the manor. At the same time, they rushed to the burning cherry tree to prevent the fire from spreading.
"Cough... cough..."
The old man guarding the manor looked at this scene, and his dry eyes became a little moist. He coughed twice with difficulty and stood up reluctantly.
He also recognized Ross and knew that Ross was a pirate. However, Ross killed Batra and others and prevented the fire from spreading. No matter who his identity was, Ross saved this centuries-old city. The benefactor of Sakura Manor.
"Thanks you… "
"You're welcome."
Ross looked at the slowly burning cherry tree and asked casually: "Are you the only one guarding here?"
"Yes, I'm the only one left."
The old man nodded and sighed softly.
Stretching out his hand to gently catch a piece of falling cherry blossoms, Ross shook his head, turned and walked towards the outside of the manor, Lafitte quickly followed.
Watching Ross leave, the old man took a long breath and sat back on the ground. Although a tree was destroyed, he managed to save the manor after all.
Ghost Hand Rhodes…
It was completely different from the image reported by the government. On the contrary, it was similar to the gossip that had been circulated some time ago. Thinking of this, the old man shook his head with a wry smile and sighed.
What exactly do the navy and government want to do to the world
…
After destroying Batra's group, the main purpose of this trip has been completed. In addition, the magnetic force of the storage record pointer will stay for at least ten days, so Ross, Lafitte and others were temporarily separated.
The scenery on this island is rare. Even Lafitte is somewhat interested in cherry blossoms and seems to have some strange ideas.
…
Five days later.
As Ross was strolling along the cherry blossom streets, admiring the scenery and the occasional beautiful girl wearing a cheongsam, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
After the call was answered, Lafitte's rare and somewhat dignified voice came from the other side.
"Captain, we seem to be in trouble. Five... no, six naval warships have appeared on the west coast. They are large warships from the headquarters. They seem to have been docked for a long time."
Six large warships!
And it’s from the Navy Headquarters!
This kind of troop configuration is not comparable to any branch of the navy. When it appears on this island, its target is undoubtedly the Ghost Hand Pirates.
"Here we are finally, our navy."
Upon hearing Lafitte's words, Ross's eyes flashed with fluctuations, he stopped and murmured in a low voice.
Even with Kaku and others as a peripheral intelligence network, and even with the Ghost Shadow's speed that dominates the sea, it is impossible to forever avoid the navy and government who have eyeliners on almost every island.
"Do you need me to inquire about the specific situation?"
Lafitte asked in a low voice on the other end of the phone.
"No."
Ross shook his head, looked deeply at the end of the street, and said: "They are already here... This time our intelligence is one step behind, and we hope we will not encounter the admiral."
Rhodes was at a three-way intersection, and the entire street became deserted at some point, with only cherry blossoms scattered silently.
tread! tread! tread!
No one spoke, and dense footsteps came from three directions almost at the same time. The footsteps came from far to near, clattering together, like the last sign before the tsunami, dull and depressing.
After a few seconds.
On the street directly in front of Rhodes, a naval admiral appeared wearing a navy justice cloak, embroidered with a lieutenant general's epaulettes, and a dark purple mohawk.
Almost at the same time, on the street behind Rhodes, a naval admiral wearing a brown jacket and a navy justice cloak, holding a cigar in his mouth, led the team.
Vice Admiral of the Navy Headquarters.
Flying squirrel! Mozambia!
Ross stood there with indifferent eyes, looking at the navy gathering silently, and said slowly to the phone bug in his hand:
"Lafitte, you and Robin go to the Ghost to meet up. Don't let the navy damage my ship."
After saying this, he hung up the phone bug and put it in his pocket.
After a few seconds.
The navy coming from the last direction gave way to both sides. A navy admiral with a scar on his face slowly walked out of it, forming a triangle with Flying Squirrel and Mozambique, trapping Rhodes. At the center.
The three vice-admirals of the Navy gathered on the Sakura Street. No one spoke, but the atmosphere in this street had become extremely depressing, so depressing that it was almost suffocating.
In a state of depression.
Dauberman, who finally appeared, broke the oppressive and solidified atmosphere. He slowly spoke to Ross, pressed his right hand on the hilt of the sword, and slowly pulled the blade out of the scabbard.
"Finally we meet."
"Ghost Hand...Rhodes."
…
at the same time.
The news that six navy warships appeared on Spring Island quickly spread to all parts of the world, attracting the attention of countless forces.
Three lieutenants of the headquarters, six large warships, the navy dispatched such a terrifying force. What did it want to do? !
soon.
Suspicious, these forces quickly began to obtain information from various channels, and the final information they obtained was...
The Ghost Hand Pirates appeared on Spring Island a few days ago!
"So it's to destroy the Ghost Hand Pirates."
"Six large warships from the headquarters, this kind of troop allocation is a bit too much. The Navy is really serious this time."
The atmosphere of all the major forces that heard the news was solemn. No matter how they make trouble on the sea, they must not completely anger the government and navy!
This is the ironclad rule!
Once violated, the navy and government will be completely angered. Unless you are the Yonko, there will be no way out in the entire sea.
The most terrifying force on the sea, the government and navy that rules the world, finally showed its prowess after being repeatedly humiliated by the Ghost Hand Pirates!
