"This should be the Logia-type White Cloud Fruit, the one the White Emperor ate."
He murmured softly, then stood up and walked towards Patrick, "You said just now that ability users are rare, and you can't afford to use them for experiments? Hehehe... the test subject is right in front of me, isn't he?"
Vladimir had a good idea. If the rumors were true, he might be able to gain unimaginable benefits during this chaotic time in the New World.
"You... what do you want to do?"
Patrick sensed a hint of killing intent, and his face turned pale immediately, while anger rose from his heart.
This guy actually wanted to kill him to use him for experiments!!
...
"You... what do you want to do?"
Patrick's face was extremely ugly.
After hearing the rumors he told, Vladimir actually wanted to kill him at the first opportunity, and use him to do an experiment.
"Damn it! You're ruthless!"
Sensing Vladimir's approach, Patrick had no intention of fighting at all. He took a slight step back, and in the next moment, he pressurized his entire body from within, and then turned around to run away.
His speed exploded all at once, actually covering dozens of meters in an instant. In the blink of an eye, he had run more than a hundred meters away.
"Is this your true level?" Vladimir didn't bother to chase, standing calmly in place, "You were deliberately hiding it during the previous fight, but now that you see the situation is bad, you don't care anymore? Sea Dragon!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Sea Dragon, who had been circling in the sky, suddenly moved.
His claws tore through the clouds, and with a flick of his dragon tail, he descended in an instant, blocking Patrick's path from above.
"This dragon is here, where do you think you're going to escape?"
Hearing this, Patrick's heart trembled, and he said in horror, "What speed! This guy is really a Sea Dragon, not a Sky Dragon!?"
The Sea Dragon had this kind of speed in the sky, it was unimaginable what it would be like in the sea.
Patrick didn't plan to start a fight, he stopped, and immediately changed direction.
But at this moment, a tremor came from the ground, and the Nine-Tailed Fox, running, suddenly blocked his path.
"Grandpa Nine's hands are itching, don't run away, play with Grandpa Nine for a bit!"
With a loud laugh, the Nine-Tailed Fox's body was engulfed in white flames.
"Fox Fire!"
This was a flame that directly attacked the soul, it didn't have spreading characteristics. Now, with his entire body engulfed, the Nine-Tailed Fox immediately slapped out with a paw.
Seeing this, Patrick was furious.
The Sea Dragon was very powerful, he couldn't beat him. The captain, Vladimir, was even more bizarre, he couldn't beat him either. But this Nine-Tailed Fox in front of him, he didn't believe he couldn't beat him.
"Get out of my way!"
Roaring, Patrick went all out, and punched towards the Nine-Tailed Fox's giant paw.
"Flame Burst!"
His right arm turned completely red, covered with Armament Haki, a full-force punch, as if to shatter space.
Boom!
The paw and the fist collided, and an explosion occurred immediately.
All the heat, heat of up to tens of thousands of degrees, poured out at once, instantly creating an impact like a huge amount of gunpowder exploding.
Even Vladimir, who was eight hundred meters away, could feel his eardrums aching from the sound of the explosion.
"The death throes of a great pirate are really strong." He rubbed his ears and shook his head, "The Nine-Tailed Fox probably isn't feeling good either. Of course, that guy himself is feeling even worse."
After one blow, the Nine-Tailed Fox was forced back, but he was an energy body, and no matter how powerful the explosion, it didn't matter.
But Patrick spat out a mouthful of blood, his entire body engulfed in Fox Fire, and flew backwards screaming.
"Ahhhh! What kind of fire is this again!?"
He was burned, rolling around on the ground, screaming in pain.
The Fox Fire didn't harm his body at all, but instead continuously burned his soul, and he couldn't even defend against it.
"You've got some skill!"
In the next moment, the Nine-Tailed Fox closed in again, pressing Patrick to the ground with a paw. His huge head came closer, and he opened his mouth, revealing a row of terrifying fangs.
"My fire, unlike the Phoenix Marco, can instantly heal wounds, and it can't spread and burn like normal flames, but it can directly attack the soul. Let me guess, you can last three minutes!"
"You bastards! What grudge do I have against you!?"
While screaming in pain, Patrick roared angrily.
The Nine-Tailed Fox said in surprise, "That's a very interesting question. Don't you often loot other countries? You have at least thousands or tens of thousands of lives on your hands, they don't have any grudge against you, do they?"
After a pause, he chuckled, "Don't cry injustice, you're just a link in the food chain, big fish eat small fish. Although you stand relatively high in the chain, but when you encounter us in the Phantom... what difference is there between you and small fish and shrimp?"
Patrick seemed to have resigned himself to his fate, gritting his teeth and holding on.
But the Fox Fire continued to burn his soul, and in just five minutes, he was too weak to maintain consciousness, and completely fell into a deep sleep.
"Hehe, you can last five minutes, your willpower is very strong."
Chuckling, the Nine-Tailed Fox grabbed Patrick and walked towards Vladimir.
With a bang, he threw Patrick's body in front of Vladimir, "Here you go."
Vladimir nodded, "Not dead?"
"Not dead, just very weak. If you leave him like this, he'll wake up in ten days or half a month."
"I see, come back then."
Vladimir drew out the Dragon Blood Kokuto, and pierced Patrick's chest with a sword.
At the same time, the Nine-Tailed Fox and the Sea Dragon turned into two streams of light, and with a whoosh, merged into Vladimir's body.
