Chapter 151 Enjoy the taste of the sea, you bastard!
Chapter 151 Savor the taste of the sea, you bastard!
"Speaking of which, could we hide at the amusement park?"
Running alongside west Yan, Luffy grinned, "Anyway, we'll be hiding for three days."
"You idiot, were you even listening to west Yan?!" Nami roared, her shark-like mouth agape. "The Marine Admiral is here!"
Such a terrifying being has appeared here, and their target is the Straw Hat Pirates... ::. At a time like this, instead of thinking about running away, they're thinking about playing around?
How does this guy's brain work?
Luffy turned his head away in dissatisfaction, as if protesting to Nami.
Just then, a huge figure fell from the sky and landed right in front of them, blocking their way.
"boom!!"
"This guy is...."
Upon seeing the other person clearly, Zoro's pupils contracted, and he exclaimed, "A Shichibukai!"
Isn't this the same Shichibukai we encountered in the Devil's Triangle?
Kuma, the user of the Paw-Paw Fruit!
"Why is this guy here?!" Usopp exclaimed in frustration.
If they're blocked here by this guy, won't they get blocked by a Marine Admiral?!
"This is really... a terrible situation."
Sanji's expression was also somewhat unpleasant, clearly not expecting the appearance of a Shichibukai.
"Heh, as expected of a Shichibukai." west Yan sneered.
How long has it been since they killed the Celestial Dragons, and these Seven Warlords of the Sea are already here blocking their way?
That's really... quite competent!
"Prepare for battle," Franky said gravely.
"Shichibukai?"
Luffy looked at his crewmates with a puzzled expression and asked, "Why does everyone know him?"
"Who is he?"
"He's the one who wanted to invite Xiyan to join the Seven Warlords of the Sea!"
As she spoke, Nami drew her weapon and looked at the pacifist with a serious expression.
Although they didn't know why this guy was here, since he had already appeared, they had to find a way to defeat him.
After all, the other party couldn't possibly let them leave.
"What?!"
"Is he that big bear?!"
Luffy immediately became furious, his eyes filled with rage as he glared at the pacifists.
How dare that bastard steal his partner?
He won't let this guy get away with it!
With that in mind, Luffy entered Gear Second without hesitation.
The Pacifista glanced at the Straw Hat Pirates members and coldly stated, "Target confirmed!"
"To be...annihilated!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand without hesitation and aimed the launcher at Luffy.
The next moment, golden light began to gather on it.
"Get out of the way!" Sanji shouted anxiously, "It's a shockwave!"
Back in the Devil's Triangle, the opponent used the power of the Paw-Paw Fruit to launch a shockwave attack.
If it weren't for west Yan, they might have lost consciousness immediately!
"A shockwave?"
Luffy was stunned for a moment. What was that?
"It doesn't look like it..."
'
Looking at the increasingly bright palm, west Yan's eyes were filled with doubt.
He vaguely remembered that the bear's attack method wasn't like that.
To unleash a shockwave... at the very least, you should compress the air first, but the other party didn't do that. Instead, they calmly raised their hands towards them.
No, this doesn't seem to be a shockwave!
west Yan suddenly realized that the thing that had lit up in the other person's hand looked a bit like Kizaru's laser!
Considering that the other party is a cyborg... they are very likely to possess laser attacks!
Thinking of this, west Yan shouted, "Get out of the way! It's a laser attack!"
Without the slightest hesitation, west Yan grabbed Mei Li and Chopper and jumped away into the distance.
After receiving west Yan's hint, the others also scattered and jumped away without hesitation.
The next moment...
"Whoosh~"
The terrifying laser attack instantly passed through the spot where the group had just been standing and flew towards the open space behind them.
"boom!!"
"What terrifying power..."
Sanji glanced at the blasted-open ground behind him and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
You absolutely must not get hit by this attack, or you'll die!!
"What's going on? I remember the last time we encountered a bear, it couldn't fire lasers," Chopper asked, puzzled.
As he spoke, he jumped off west Yan's hand, and his body rapidly expanded, transforming into the form of a strong man.
Clearly, he also wants to fight.
"He must have undergone another modification," Nico Robin guessed.
If the other party can modify it once, they can modify it a second time. There's nothing strange about that.
"This guy's laser attack is similar to Kizaru's."
Xi Yan, who had just put Mei Li down, quickly said, "Make sure she doesn't get hit."
"That's true, but... it's a laser."
Usopp felt a bit of a headache; that thing's attack speed was ridiculously fast, and it wasn't easy to dodge.
"Instead of thinking about this, we should be thinking about how to get rid of him!"
Franky raised his hand and said to the pacifist, "Wind Cannon!"
"bump!!"
The terrifying air cannon blasted at the pacifist, sending him flying and crashing into a giant tree behind him.
"boom!!"
"Did it work?"
"It doesn't look like it...:::" Franky said with a grim expression, "It's harder than I expected."
As expected of a cyborg who surpasses him, his defensive capabilities are truly terrifying.
"Why isn't he using his deflection ability?" Brooke asked, puzzled.
If a rebounding technique is used, Mr. Franky's air cannon will be bounced back, right?
"How should I know!"
"Perhaps he feels he doesn't need it for the time being?"
Who cares...
Luffy charged towards the Pacifistas, shouting, "Kuma, you'd better be prepared!"
"JET Rocket Launcher!"
"boom!!"
The incredibly heavy blow struck the pacifist, sending him flying once again.
But the pacifists quickly stood up again and didn't give Luffy a chance to continue attacking, raising their hands to launch a laser attack!
"Whoosh~"
"boom!!"
"That was close!!"
Luffy dodged the attack with a backflip, and cold sweat broke out on his brow.
That laser just flew right past him; if he had been even a fraction of a second slower, he would have been hit!
"Although I don't know why this guy isn't using the Paw-Paw Fruit's power, ...::...this is advantageous to us too!"
Zoro, wielding three weapons, charged to the pacifist's side and slashed!
"Three-Sword Style: 108 Troublesome Winds!"
"Whoosh~"
"Clang!!"
The sharp, flying slash struck the pacifist hard, abruptly interrupting his subsequent laser attack.
"Something feels off."
Looking at the Pacifista who had taken a lot of damage, west Yan frowned and said, "Under normal circumstances, he should have used the power of the Paw-Paw Fruit to bounce himself away."
Even if his defense is amazing, he shouldn't be able to withstand Luffy and his crew's attacks head-on.
"I feel that way too."
Sanji also frowned; he felt that this Bartholomew Kuma he had encountered was very strange.
"Never mind, let's give it a try first."
As he spoke, west Yan glanced at the distant sea and then quickly rushed towards the shore.
"Although I'd love to use this guy to hone my Haki, ... there's no time for that right now."
A naval admiral could appear here at any moment, so... let's try to take this guy down.
After all... this battlefield is in his favor!
Sanji stared blankly at Xiyan as he left, then understood his intention, grinning and saying, "As expected of him! Nami, you guys stay away!"
After saying that, Sanji charged toward the pacifist, intending to hold him back.
At the very least... we need to buy west Yan time to activate his Water Escape Technique!
"We must fight too..."
?
"Merry, it's already the best we can do by not causing them any trouble."
Nami scooped up Merry and followed Nico Robin without hesitation, running towards the distant hillside.
If we had to categorize them, both she and Robin are ranged attackers, so even if they need to provide support, they don't need to rush close.
"Then we..."
.
Before Usopp could finish speaking, he saw a pacifist in the distance fire a laser at them, which startled him so much that he immediately lunged away!
"boom!!"
"Damn it, we're running out of Coke..." Franky said.
After the previous battle, plus that powerful blast from the Wind Cannon, his cola reserves are almost depleted.
"Go find Mary, she has a stockpile of Coke."
"Oh, right!"
Franky remembered as well, and then ran towards Mary without hesitation.
Without cola, his fighting ability might not even be as good as Usopp's.
"Three-Sword Style: Demon Slash!"
"Clang!"
"Damn it, this guy is so hard."
Zoro, who had landed a short distance away, glanced at the Pacifista whose clothes were merely torn and said, "I can't even cut through him." *Sizzle*
"not good!"
Seeing the laser shot out of the other's mouth, Zoro's pupils contracted, and he quickly lunged to the side.
"boom!!"
"It's not over yet!"
"Rubber Jet Machine Gun!"
"Da da da da!"
Countless fists slammed into the pacifist, causing his body to tremble and stagger backward uncontrollably.
"Devil's Wind Kick!"
Sanji, whose right leg had turned crimson, rushed over at top speed and delivered a powerful kick the instant Luffy stopped attacking.
"The Ultimate Braised Dishes!"
"boom!!"
The incredibly heavy kick, carrying a scorching heat, slammed into the pacifist, sending him flying into the house behind him.
"boom!!"
"How was it? Did it work?" Brooke asked as he ran over.
I don't know.
Before he could finish speaking, a sound came from inside the house.
"cut."
Sanji took a sip and said, "So it wasn't that simple after all."
It seems that defeating this Shichibukai will not be an easy task.
"That's normal, after all... he's a Shichibukai."
Zoro, wielding three swords, walked over and stared intently at the house, saying, "Don't forget, he hasn't used his Devil Fruit powers yet!"
"That's true."
"Tch, I really underestimated you."
Just then, a yellow light suddenly shone into the room, and it grew brighter and brighter!
"Oh no, get out of the way!"
"Whoosh~"
"boom!!"
A laser shot out from inside, grazing Brook and nearly setting his afro on fire.
"asshole!!"
Looking at the pacifists who came out, Brooke angrily said, "How dare you touch my hair?!"
This is the only feature that allows Rab to recognize him. What if it's destroyed and Rab can't recognize him anymore?
Thinking of this, Brooke's angry skull face twisted in pain.
"Nose Song Three-Step Slash with Arrow Tail!!"
"puff!"
"Now you know how powerful I am!"
Looking at the pacifist whose hair he had just cut off, Brooke coldly said, "You should experience that too..."
"Hello!"
"You should at least show some reaction!"
Brook was stunned as he watched the pacifist launch a laser attack on him without hesitation.
Why is this guy acting like a robot, not reacting at all!
"Ultimate Move: Atlas Comet!!"
"Whoosh~"
"boom!!"
Several explosive projectiles struck the pacifists, creating a cloud of smoke that obscured their vision.
Brooke took this opportunity to distance himself from the pacifists.
"This guy is too tough!" Chopper exclaimed.
So many people are attacking him, but it has no effect at all... Is this guy a monster?
"If it weren't for that, we wouldn't have had such a tough time against Moria." Franky, who had just received three bottles of cola from Merry, glanced back at the pacifist and said, "This guy's toughness... is beyond imagination."
At that moment, Franky felt a strong curiosity about the creature's construction.
What kind of metal is this that can have such terrifying hardness?
"Who cares!"
After Chopper finished speaking, he immediately transformed into his reindeer form, intending to rush over and deliver a fierce blow to the pacifist.
However, when he saw west Yan rushing back through the seawater, he ran back without hesitation.
"Um?"
Mary looked at Chopper with a puzzled expression. Why had he come back?
"west Yan is back."
"Boom!!"
As Chopper finished speaking, Xiyan, carrying a large amount of seawater, rushed over.
"west Yan!!"
"Get out of the way!"
"Bear, savor the taste of the sea!"
Standing on the water's surface, Xi Yan clapped his hands and shouted, "Water Release: Water Wave!"
"boom!!"
A large amount of seawater rushed towards the pacifist, forcefully engulfing him!
"Very good!"
A hint of joy immediately flashed in Sanji and Zoro's eyes. Seawater could render someone powerless after it touched their body!
That way... they'll have a chance to kill this guy!
"Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle."
"Um?"
Hearing the strange drinking sound, the two instinctively looked to the side and immediately saw a figure struggling in the water.
"Luffy!!"
west Yan: ...
After discovering that Luffy had also been submerged, the people of Xiyan were stunned.
Why didn't this guy use his rubber powers to grab the tree on the top of the hill?!
I specifically reminded him, but this bastard still got hit by the seawater?
A speechless west Yan manipulated the seawater to throw Luffy out, along with Zoro and Sanji. *Thump!*
"bump!"
"bump!"
"Cough cough..."
Luffy, who was lying on the ground, started spitting out seawater, and tears welled up in his eyes.
"I almost... I thought I was going to die..."
3
However, no one paid him any attention; their immediate priority was to take down this bear!
"Western Flame succeeded! That bear guy has already touched the seawater!" Usopp exclaimed excitedly!
But after he finished speaking, Usopp realized something was wrong. Why...? That guy didn't seem to be in pain?
A wave several meters high crashing against a power user—wouldn't that render them powerless?
"That's a bit strange."
Standing on the water, west Yan frowned as he watched the pacifists struggling in the current, a hint of doubt in his eyes.
In order to deal with the ability user, he specially brought seawater over and soaked the guy in it.
But now... why does he still look so energetic?
Is it just my imagination?
Just as west Yan was wondering, the pacifist in the water suddenly moved.
He raised his hands and launched a laser attack at west Yan on the water's surface.
"What?!"
west Yan's pupils contracted. Could he really launch an attack while underwater?
Is this guy really a Devil Fruit user?!
"Whoosh~"
"boom!!"
"boom!!"
Two lasers flew out from Xiong's hands, but because they were in the sea, their accuracy was obviously compromised, and they failed to hit west Yan at all, instead darting around aimlessly.
"ah!!"
Chopper was so startled by the laser that it almost hit him that his hat flew off.
If his head had been tilted even slightly more, it would have been severed!
"What exactly happened? Why can he continue launching laser attacks even after entering the seawater?"
"Not only that, he didn't even use the Paw-Paw Fruit's ability to repel the seawater..."
The more they looked, the stranger it seemed, as if... the guy in front of them wasn't Bartholomew Kuma himself.
"Heh, I see, so it's an imposter." west Yan sneered.
The fact that Devil Fruit users are countered by seawater will not change, because that's the rule!
The only possibility that the opponent wouldn't be countered by seawater is that they aren't a power user!
Looking at the pacifist struggling to stand up, west Yan said, "I just don't know if you're that bear's twin brother or a mechanical weapon made by the World Government..."
'
If it's the former, that's fine, but if it's the latter... that means the World Government is capable of mass-producing such weapons!
Hopefully it's not the latter, otherwise nobody knows how many more of these kinds of things will follow.
"Sizzle~"
"Whoosh~"
The laser below interrupted west Yan's train of thought, and at the same time, it made west Yan determined to kill this guy right now.
"I don't know what you are, but... you'd better lie down obediently!"
"Lightning Release: Earth Walk!"
"Sizzle~"
"boom!!"
The terrifying power of lightning struck the pacifist at a speed invisible to the naked eye, causing his body to tremble violently.
Then black smoke billowed from his mouth, and his body trembled as he collapsed.
Clearly, for these cyborgs, lightning is the most effective way to counter them.
Seeing the cyborg fall, west Yan released the water escape technique beneath his feet, allowing the seawater to spread freely in all directions.
Then, he used a Body Flicker Technique to appear above the Pacifistas, and Armament Haki quickly covered his fist!
"Armed Super Strength Fist!!"
"boom!!"
The incredibly heavy attack shattered the pacifist's head!
"Sizzle~"
"Sizzle~"
After trembling for a moment, the pacifists ceased operations altogether.
