"Wow, the second in command of the Revolutionary Army is so scary~~"
The ruins battlefield, on the west side, is 320 kilometers away from the stone wall of the Red Earth Continent.
Kizaru brought a group of naval troops to protect several celestial dragons, and happened to collide with Sabo who came to rescue the slaves.
The two sides looked at each other. Seeing Kizaru pouting and talking to disgust him, Sabo followed suit and also pouted his lips. He looked at the other party and said, "Wow, Admiral Kizaru, the user of the Pikachu Fruit, is really scary~~"
Navy soldiers: "..."
Members of the Revolutionary Army: "..."
"Stop it, Sabo, that guy is Kizaru..."
Someone pulled the hem of LS Bo's clothes from behind.
Upon hearing this, Sabo looked at Kizaru with even more disdain.
Was it because he despised the Admiral
Of course not.
Sabo naturally knew how powerful Kizaru was as one of the three admirals.
The reason why he behaved so arrogantly was just part of his plan.
Only by angering your opponent can you make him lose his mind during the battle and reveal more flaws.
Although he was well aware that doing so would have little impact on a person of Kizaru's level, but...
Just as the brothers of the Revolutionary Army behind him said, his current opponent is Kizaru. How can he possibly defeat him if he doesn't do his best in every aspect
As expected, Sabo's actions did arouse some interest from Kizaru.
"Little devil, are you crazy?"
Kizaru still put his hands in his pockets, and raised his left leg slightly. He looked at Sabo and said, "Have you ever experienced the feeling of being kicked at the speed of light?"
Sabo: (⊙_⊙)
The words fell.
Without any "hesitation" like when he captured Luffy and his crew in the Sabaody Archipelago, Kizaru kicked Sabo's legs at the speed of light.
It happened almost in a flash, and it was the first time that Sabo saw an attack faster than Vivian's Breathing of Lightning. Before he could even attach the Armament Haki, he had already taken the lead and flew backwards, landing heavily on the ruins.
"Sabo!"
The revolutionary soldiers cried out in surprise, and when the smoke and dust settled, they saw only a deep hole left on the ground. Sabo, who should have been trapped in it, had disappeared at some point.
Most of the people present began to look around for Sabo with puzzled expressions.
Only Kizaru, after pouting and making a little hushing sound, turned around and kicked, as if he had predicted it in advance, and happened to kick Sabo on the arm who had just dodged behind him.
Bang!
There was a muffled sound, and golden light flashed everywhere.
This time, Sabo, who had already released his Armament Haki in advance, was not kicked away by Kizaru. Instead, he used his dragon claw to strike directly at Kizaru's heart.
Wow!
With the sound of fingers tearing through the air, Sabo's hand went straight through Kizaru's chest and stretched out from his back under a golden light.
"How is it possible..."
An expression of great astonishment appeared on his face. Although he knew that when the Observation Haki became strong enough, one could foresee the future in advance, and use this ability in conjunction with the Nature-type Devil Fruit to transfer his body in advance, Sabo, who encountered this thing for the first time, still felt a little unbelievable.
But no matter how incredible it is, as Sabo can become the second-in-command of the Revolutionary Army, it is impossible that his level is just like this.
When Kizaru condensed the light beam into a sword and swung it suddenly towards his shoulder, Sabo also twisted his body to an extremely strange degree. After barely dodging Kizaru's sword, he turned his body, raised his leg and volleyed it, hitting Kizaru's wrist in revenge.
Without the powerless feeling of the previous attack on the air, the ankle and wrist collided with each other, making an extremely harsh and crisp sound, just like steel colliding with each other.
But this attack was not the end. Sabo used several claws in succession, poking Kizaru's vital points on various parts of his body.
In an instant, the sound of clanging and hammering echoed throughout the town that had long since turned into ruins.
Not far away, the navy and revolutionary army who were witnessing this battle were already dumbfounded.
This is so meow..
The two of them were moving so fast that they couldn't see clearly what was happening!
Only occasionally a golden light or air current flashed by, followed by the ruins of the floor that had already been shattered, and then it was cut into layers of debris again.
About ten minutes later, the two figures finally stopped intersecting.
However, when the two of them stood still, everyone could see clearly that there were already several bloodstains on Sabo's body that were visible to the naked eye.
On the other hand, Kizaru didn't even have a single sign of injury on his body. His white admiral jacket and yellow suit were still intact, forming a sharp contrast to the disheveled Sabo at the moment.
But in fact it is true. Although Sabo is strong enough now, he is still one step behind Kizaru.
It would be fine if this guy had obtained Ace's Flame-Flame Fruit like in the original work, but the key point is... Ace's Flame-Flame Fruit has already been eaten by Vivian.
Without the bonus of the "Fire Fist", Sabo's strength naturally cannot reach the height he should have reached compared to the original.
A trickle of blood dripped from the wound. Sabo turned around and glanced at Kizaru who put his hands in his pockets again. He smiled and said, "Sure enough, he is much stronger than I thought..."
"You are a lot weaker than I thought." Kizaru pouted and replied.
But the next second, the smile on Sabo's face became even wider, "But... I have already delayed for long enough."
After he finished speaking, as if realizing something, Kizaru subconsciously turned his head and looked behind him.
"Um?"
He didn't know when, but all the captains of the Whitebeard Pirates appeared in his field of vision at the same time.
"The Whitebeard Pirates?"
New and old grudges, it seems that we really have to settle them once and for all here today.
...
The other side.
"Holy Musgarud..."
Seeing Saint Musgarud kneeling in front of his parents' bodies without saying a word, Vivian could only sigh, stepped forward and patted his shoulders twice, and then asked again: "Who killed your parents? Was it the revolutionary army?"
"Yes...it's the Five Elders..."
Saint Musgarud answered Vivian directly without turning his head.
