Lulusia Kingdom, Port Town.
Bang!
As the gunshots rang out, bullets wrapped in Armament Haki instantly flew from the gun barrels, tearing through the air and shooting toward Yamato's chest.
Onigumo's timing was incredibly precise, striking exactly when Yamato and Strowberry's weapons collided, and her body momentarily stiffened. In that instant, even a master proficient in two colors of Haki couldn't quickly mobilize Armament Haki for precise defense. If the bullet hit Yamato, Onigumo was confident the opponent would be severely wounded!
However...
Swish!
A figure suddenly appeared not far from Yamato's side. Immediately after, a dazzling purple knife light slashed across the air in a beautiful arc, instantly cutting the bullet wrapped in Armament Haki in half.
Onigumo focused his gaze and found a beautiful woman holding a saber, wearing a pink kimono, with emerald green shoulder-length hair, and a slightly pale, enchanting face.
Kozuki Hiyori raised the Enma in her hand, pointing the tip at Onigumo in the distance, and said coldly, "I didn't expect you Marines to use such underhanded sneak attack methods during someone else's one-on-one fight..."
"This is truly despicable!"
"There's no need to talk about rules when dealing with Pirates... Pirates should all die!" Onigumo said coldly.
As the two spoke, Perona, Kuina, and Iska hurried over. On the Marine side, led by Ain, thousands of Marine soldiers holding weapons also arrived at the edge of the central square.
For a time, the atmosphere on the scene became tense, and a great battle was about to break out!
Not far away, Momonga glanced at Perona and the others, then immediately said to Admiral Akainu beside him, "Admiral Akainu, these five women are all wanted Pirates..."
"Then kill them all!" Akainu said coldly.
The Lulusia Kingdom King Guan Ji, who had run down from the high platform at some point, hid behind the Marine generals and said in a vicious tone, "Yes! Yes! Yes! These Pirates all deserve to die! You Marines, quickly shoot them to death!"
After Akainu gave the order, Momonga and the other five Vice Admirals each found an opponent, rushed forward, and prepared to eliminate them.
On the other side, the careful Zephyr and Aokiji had already noticed some clues about the incident through the firewood piles covered with ice crystals at the execution site and the men, women, and children tied to the wooden stakes.
"Be careful to protect innocent civilians!"
Zephyr and Aokiji said in unison. After speaking, the two lo...
After receiving the order, Ain immediately dispatched the soldiers following her to take the unconscious civilians and soldiers away from the central square.
"I'm sorry! I don't have time to drag this out with you anymore!" Yamato looked around the square and found that the Marines had gradually started to surround them. If they continued to delay, Perona and the others would definitely be in danger!
Thinking of this, she immediately underwent the Great Mouth True God human-beast transformation...
Snow-white fur quickly covered her skin, and a white wolf tail emitting light blue cold air grew on her back. A white flame cloud ribbon wrapped around her arms and shoulders.
Seeing this, Strowberry couldn't help but feel a strong sense of warning in his heart and subconsciously retreated a distance. He wanted to cautiously probe the opponent's abilities before finding an opportunity to attack and defeat the enemy. However...
Thunder Bagua!
Yamato stomped her feet on the ground and her body flashed. The next moment, the club in her hand, wrapped in purple lightning, hit Strowberry's long head with a "bang!" at a speed he couldn't react to!
Boom-! Boom-! Boom-!... Strowberry was like a cannonball fired from a barrel, blood seeping from his forehead, his eyes rolling, and he flew backward, directly crossing the central square, and crashing through five houses in a row before finally stopping, buried in the rubble of the collapsed walls.
Immediately after, Yamato wanted to go and meet up with the others to take the opportunity to break through and leave. However...
"I didn't expect you to have some skills! I underestimated you..."
Akainu, wearing a white justice cloak and a red suit, directly blocked Yamato's path forward, making it impossible for her to leave.
Akainu's right hand gradually glowed with boiling red magma, constantly dripping onto the stone ground, eroding out pits and emitting plumes of smoke.
Through Observation Haki, Yamato clearly perceived how powerful the enemy in front of her was. That long-headed Vice Admiral just now couldn't compare to him...
"Damn it!" Yamato couldn't help but curse softly.
Her gaze quickly swept across the central square, and she found that many Marine soldiers had started aiming their guns at them. Not long ago, she had experienced a sneak attack, so she was extremely wary of the soldiers holding guns and waiting. Although bullets not wrapped in Armament Haki were useless against her and Xiao Zi, unable to break through their defense, they were a great threat to Kuina and the other two...
Boom! Thick and violent dark red lightning burst out from Yamato's body, winding and rushing through the void.
A Conqueror's Haki, stronger and more vast and majestic than before, instantly spread in all directions. The surrounding ground cracked inch by inch under the heavy pressure. Thousands of Marine soldiers rolled their eyes, foamed at the mouth, lost consciousness, and fell to the ground. However… most of these soldiers were elite soldiers who had participated in the Buster Call, the best of the Marines!
Even after Yamato fully unleashed her Conqueror's Haki, over four hundred middle and lower-level officers remained conscious and unaffected.
"Such strong Conqueror's Haki… It seems that no matter what, you cannot continue to live today! Otherwise, the situation in this sea will only become more turbulent." Akainu's eyes were cold, and his words revealed a resolute killing intent. His right arm quickly transformed into a huge fist made of lava, and the scorching high temperature caused the air to distort in waves.
Rolling black smoke rose from the huge lava fist. Great Eruption! As Akainu swung the magma fist, a powerful and scorching hot air current erupted from his shoulder, causing the lava fist to roar and shoot forward.
Yamato could have easily dodged the huge lava fist, but if she dodged, the attack would definitely affect Iska, who was fighting Momonga in the distance!
Yamato gripped her club tightly with both hands, and the bone-chilling white cold air quickly gathered on the shaft, forming layers of frost. She quickly wrapped Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki around the fangs and swung it out. A white snake constructed of cold air immediately opened its mouth and roared, meeting the huge lava fist.
Boom! Red and white collided fiercely, and the scorching heat and extreme cold constantly intertwined, causing thick white water vapor to rise above the central square…
