As soon as these words came out!
Everyone around looked at Luffy.
Some villagers with stronger wills struggled to get up, their eyes filled with determination.
"Beat Arlong!"
Someone took the lead and said this.
Everyone echoed it.
And they!
Placed all their hope on Luffy.
Luffy jumped out of the ruins, his expression very firm, and said:
"Okay!"
"Don't worry!"
Seeing this.
Arlong gritted his teeth and said:
"You stinky monkey, you actually ruined so many years of my hard work, I can't forgive you!"
As he said that, Arlong clenched his fists.
But the next second, Luffy threw a punch, so fast that Arlong couldn't react at all.
It was too late to dodge.
The punch hit Arlong's chest, right on the Sun Pirates' mark.
Arlong's muscles instantly caved in, and then he flew backward.
A mouthful of blood came out!
Arlong crashed heavily to the ground, his eyes rolling back.
But this punch also took too much of Luffy's strength, and his body could no longer support him.
Luffy gasped for breath, propped himself up with his hands, and coughed repeatedly.
Seeing this!
Everyone almost dropped their jaws in shock.
They didn't expect that someone in the East Blue could actually defeat Arlong.
They had all witnessed Arlong's strength.
He could even overturn warships with his bare hands, which was beyond the scope of humans.
But just now!
That straw hat kid solved Arlong with one punch?
It's too incredible!
After a while, Luffy stood up, hit his fist into his palm, and looked at Arlong.
"Hey, is that all you've got?"
As he said that!
Luffy tilted his head and made cracking sounds, ready to fight.
And after a long time!
Arlong's fingers finally moved.
He struggled to sit up, a cold look appearing in his eyes.
Then!
He reached into the pile of rubble with his left hand, groped for a while, and quickly pulled out a huge, jagged weapon.
Arlong waved it forward and said to Luffy:
"Did you think I would be defeated by you so easily? Don't be delusional."
"No matter how strong your friends are, today, you won't be able to leave Arlong Park!"
As soon as he finished speaking.
Arlong's entire body quickly rose up and attacked Luffy's direction.
Luffy desperately dodged!
The jagged weapon slashed across Luffy's stomach, directly cutting the pile of rubble in half.
Luffy grimaced and sucked in a breath of cold air.
"Phew, that was really dangerous."
Hearing this!
Arlong gritted his teeth and said:
"Hmph, you're just a monkey that jumps around."
As he said that!
Arlong unleashed another attack, a powerful slash rushing forward, but Luffy still dodged it with great speed!
Arlong was unwilling to give up and continued to attack, each attack narrowly missing Luffy's body.
This infuriated Arlong.
His attack speed became faster and faster.
When the villagers saw this, they were worried about Luffy's situation.
Everyone was praying for Luffy in their hearts!
That he would be safe and sound!
Seeing this, Raynor's eyes showed a serious look.
Luffy's growth speed seemed a little too fast.
Just a moment ago!
He was someone who could be instantly killed by Arlong.
But in just over ten minutes, he could already fight on par with Arlong in his prime.
Looks like!
We still need to let them fight more in the future.
As long as they have combat experience, the Straw Hat Crew's progress speed is very fast.
Thinking this!
Raynor continued to look at Luffy and Arlong. Arlong's attacks were getting stronger and stronger, while Luffy was unable to exert his full strength because he had consumed too much energy earlier.
So!
He couldn't exert his full strength and could only passively take hits.
Looking back at Arlong, his aura was soaring, and his whole body exuded a faint green light.
Every time he swung!
The surrounding air currents would be set in motion, forming powerful slashes.
Luffy also suffered a lot as a result.
After all, before obtaining Armament Haki, Luffy's Gum-Gum Fruit was most afraid of sharp blades.
Once hit!
Without a doubt, with Luffy's current body strength, he would definitely be decapitated.
At this time, Arlong was already blinded by rage. Now, he only had one goal in his eyes, and that was to kill Luffy!
...
At this moment, in the forest.
Usopp was beaten to the point where he only had his last breath left by Chew. Chew grabbed Usopp with one hand.
And looking at Usopp's swollen face and blood-covered body!
Chew couldn't help but spit.
"I thought he was a powerful person, but I didn't expect him to be so vulnerable. As expected, the pirates of the East Blue are all trash."
As he said that, he casually waved his hand and threw Usopp out like he was throwing trash.
Then Chew turned around!
And walked towards Arlong Park.
But just then, behind him, Usopp's firm voice suddenly rang out.
"Wait a minute!"
Hearing this!
Chew paused for a moment, he turned around and looked at Usopp with disdain.
And at this moment!
Usopp's face was covered in blood, and he trembled as he raised his slingshot. Then, he fired a marble in Chew's direction.
Chew thought it was wasabi again and quickly covered his long mouth, but the ultimate target of that ammunition!
Was Chew's eyes.
Instantly!
The marble exploded in front of Chew's eyes, and the surrounding area was immediately covered in red powder.
What was inside!
Was actually chili powder!
Chew immediately covered his eyes and ran around looking for water.
But his eyes couldn't see, and he didn't know where there was water, so he could only run around wildly.
At this time, Usopp scattered thumbtacks all around.
Chew ran around wildly, directly stepping on the thumbtacks.
The pain almost sent him to heaven.
Fish-men have ten times the defense of ordinary humans.
But similarly, if their defense is broken, the pain is also ten times that of ordinary humans.
Chew ran around in pain, and then fell on his butt, and his butt was also covered in thumbtacks.
But luckily!
Chew successfully found a puddle of water and washed away the chili powder from his eyes.
Just when Chew was extremely angry!
And was about to settle the score with Usopp.
He suddenly saw Usopp pulling up his slingshot again. Seeing this, Chew subconsciously covered his eyes.
Seeing this, Usopp revealed a wicked smile.
Then he shouted:
"Kill move, super big wasabi!"
As soon as he finished speaking!
Two green marbles shot straight into Chew's mouth.
Concentrated wasabi essence!
Was instantly rampaging between Chew's lips and teeth.
Chew's mouth spewed out a stream of fire, and then he fainted from the spice.
Finally!
Usopp also coughed a few times, knelt on the ground, and fainted straight away.
...
On the other side!
Sanji and Kuro's battle had also reached a fever pitch.
No matter how strong Kuro's physical conditions are, Sanji's Devil Leg could move Tekkai.
With one kick, Kuro flew straight out, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and falling into the water!
