Chapter 890 - Chapter 544: Seven Warlords of the Sea vs. Seven Warlords of the Sea

Below the floating Ghost Island, at the fourth-floor location.

A man over three meters tall, wearing a red mask helmet, with a pair of long horns on his head and long pink hair reaching his waist, drew out his extremely long sword, but what came out of the long scabbard was a dagger.

"Blade Spear!"

The dagger launched an intensive attack like specks of starlight, all headed towards the blue fatty in front.

The blue fatty raised an eyebrow, pulled his fist back to his waist, then launched a powerful punch after assuming a stance.

"Fishman Karate: Karakusagawara Seiken!"

The semi-circular shockwave from the punch instantly scattered the incoming blade-shaped sword qi and continued to rush towards the person in front.

"Soru!"

The man swiftly disappeared, retreating into the air as he kicked and sent out a vacuum slash.

"Rankyaku!"

The blue fatty didn't even move, he just extended a fist out in front of his chest, his arm covered with Haki, directly catching the vacuum slash.

Bang!

The slash landed, splitting from his arm in two directions, cutting the huge wooden pillars on both sides.

"Soru, Rankyaku..."

Jinbe watched the man land and slowly said, "The 'Six Styles' used by the World Government."

The man exhaled a puff of smoke, threw away the cigarette in his mouth, stomped it out, and didn't say a word, just gave a light smile.

Who's-Who, ranked number one among the Flying Six.

"Speaking of which, I heard before..."

Jinbe said, "A former member of CP9's prison break story."

"I'm surprised you still remember!"

Who's-Who's lightly smiling mouth suddenly stretched wide, reaching his cheeks, as two giant teeth burst out from his upper jaw, an eye tattoo on his chest under the 'Who's Who' tattooed chest expanded, the gloves on his hands tore open, revealing paws with flesh pads, and a tail protruded from the base of his spine.

Superior fur covered him, transforming him into a standing Saber-toothed Tiger Person!

Cat-Cat Fruit·Ancient·Saber-Toothed Tiger Form!

"Ah... the change of stance is truly fascinating!"

The now tall Who's-Who looked down at Jinbe and said, "Back then you were a member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and I was in CP9, and now... we've both become Pirates and now we're enemies!"

"Do I know you?" Jinbe asked suspiciously.

"It's not important... but your Captain is very important to me, he's my nemesis!"

Who's-Who bared his teeth, "Thirteen years ago, I was in charge of escorting a Devil Fruit, but it was taken by the Red Hair. Then two years ago, I was shocked when Straw Hat began to rise because the 'Gum-Gum Fruit' I was escorting at that time is now Straw Hat's ability!"

He flexed his claws, moving his arms, "I was once a genius on par with Rob Lucci. Though many years have passed, and I quite like my current state, that hatred, I can't forget!"

Thud!

"Moon Step!"

Who's-Who leaped high into the air, opening his jaws wide for a violent snap, "Tooth Spear!"

A tooth-shaped air wave shot rapidly from his mouth, Jinbe lifted his arm once again to block the attack directly.

Clang!

The sound of clashing metal rang out, and Jinbe frowned slightly, glancing at the blood flowing from his Haki-covered arm.

So sharp...

"All because the Red Hair disrupted my life; now I've even come to hate Straw Hat who ate the fruit! You've been to Impel Down too, but you weren't there long enough to truly understand the torment you'd endure!"

Who's-Who roared, "Do you think it's just a place to imprison criminals, to prevent Ability Users and dangerous individuals from getting out? Human rights?! There's no such thing! Tortured, beaten, mocked, losing hope, then turning into numb puppets and sent to Mary Geoise to become slaves for the Heavenly Celestial Dragons! That is the true fate of the prisoners!!"

"During the endless torment, those people made me pray to Sun God Nika...It was then I learned of that legend, an ancient warrior who could liberate all the slaves and bring smiles to people. At that time, I was nearly driven insane by the torment, and even such a bizarre legend was treated by me as a lifeline."

"How ridiculous that I, who once worked for the Government, now need a legend of liberating slaves as mental support. But thankfully, I held onto it, without becoming numb, and later, when those people came down to select slaves, I seized the chance to kill them, stole their ship, and escaped."

"Why are you telling me this?" Jinbe frowned, "I'm not interested in your story."

"Just wanted to ask you something, what exactly is Sun God Nika?"

Who's-Who stared at the sun tattoo on Jinbe's chest, "Back then, wasn't your 'Sun Pirates' also slaves? With that name, you should know something! After all, the history of Fishmen is a history of slavery..."

Jinbe's pupils contracted, and he replied gravely, "Discrimination against Fishmen is no longer in vogue on the sea, and as for your suffering, I already told you, I'm not interested!"

"Then I'll just bite off your limbs and have a nice chat with you!"

Who's-Who leapt back, ascended to a high point, and his body tensed as he crouched.

"Tekkai!"

His legs remained flexible, but his upper body tensed up, covered in Haki.

"Tooth Flash!!"

Thud!

With an explosive thrust of his legs, he shot forward like a cannonball.

Jinbe subtly withdrew his leg, crossed his arms to form an X, covered them in Haki, and stood firm, "Plum Blossom Skin!"

Bam!!

The tremendous impact pushed Jinbe sliding backward.

His arms were now locked on Who's-Who's sharp teeth, preventing them from advancing.

"I'm not interested in your misfortunes, and casually speaking of others' shameful history is extremely impolite! Let me..."

The flowing Haki swirled around Jinbe's arms. He released one hand, grabbed Who's-Who's teeth with the other, turned around, and slammed him down with an over-the-shoulder throw.

"Teach you! Fishman Jujutsu: Hikishio!"

Bang!

Under the impact of this over-the-shoulder throw, Who's-Who's head was slammed into the ground, creating a dent. The heavy strike broke through his Haki, causing him to spurt some blood.

He gritted his teeth fiercely, twisted his body, attempting to dodge away, but as he moved to the side, his tail suddenly hurt.

Sizzle!

Jinbe stomped on his tail, Haki displaying two flashes of black in his right fist.

Who's-Who's eyes widened in realization, instinctively crossing his arms.

"If you criticize others' history..."

A punch was launched.

"At least have some decent strength and awareness! Fishman Karate Secret Technique: Buraikan!!"

Who's-Who's arms instantly fractured and under the momentum of the punch, they were flung open, embedding into his chest with a single punch.

Boom!!

The massive force sent Who's-Who flying backward. Just as he was about to crash into the wall of the high platform behind, his body suddenly halted, and just as Jinbe finished speaking, he charged again.

"Haven't learned your lesson? Then..."

Jinbe frowned, stepping forward preparing to strike again. But at that moment, as Who's-Who approached, Jinbe saw clearly that this guy's eyes were completely white, unconscious.

But this action...

As Who's-Who rushed forward, the shadow below him inexplicably lengthened, forming a ghostly shape, reaching toward the shadow under Jinbe's feet.

"Hmm?"

Jinbe paused, swiftly lifting his foot to stomp heavily downward, kicking up the floor beneath him, and with the momentum, he punched Who's-Who away.

He observed the flickering shadow under the fallen Who's-Who, curiously saying, "Shadow? This feeling, could it be..."

"Hee hee hee, what a show I've seen. Sun God? I think Sage mentioned it, but I didn't expect the escaped CP9 back then to join Kaido's ranks."

The shadow raised and stood on the ground, forming a scallion shape.

That scallion-shaped figure, plump, wearing a shirt with a bat-like collar and a Gothic coat, grinned with a sharp laugh.

He glanced at the prone Who's-Who, chuckling:

"CP9, comparable to Rob Lucci? Maybe not, you're still lacking without an Awakening, but that's okay, once we win, we'll give you a good lesson. But... for you to get hurt by such an opponent, Jinbe, have you weakened?"

As he spoke, he looked over.

"Moriah!"

Jinbe tensed all over, "Why are you here!"

"If you're here, I'm here."

Moriah grinned wickedly, "Sage is battling Kaido, I also need to take out some disruptive guys first!"

"Has disaster arrived..."

Jinbe's eyes widened, "Luffy..."

"Instead of worrying about the Straw Hat, think about yourself. Both as Seven Warlords of the Sea, it's hard to believe you chose someone like the Straw Hat. But everyone has their choices, let's see if your choice outweighs mine!"

Moriah spread his fingers, and the shadow beneath him spread around like ink, staining the surrounding ground.

"A battle, then? Very well... you seem different from the time in Marineford."

Jinbe clenched his fists, "Since disaster has arrived, our goals are probably the same. If there's a conflict, we'll resolve it with our fists!"
