Rustle, rustle...
Pew, pew...
Ah, ah, ah...
Dense and urgent gunfire, accompanied by scattered cannon fire and continuous miserable screams, echoed incessantly before this castle, far from the small town.
The residents of the town became alarmed and uneasy, hiding in their homes, trembling, not daring to venture out, fearing they might invite disaster.
Such things had already happened more than once.
Every year, countless gang members came to seek revenge on the Capone family, but not once did they succeed.
And that pitiful navigator, although a pirate capable of reaching the New World, certainly had some tricks up his sleeve. But after all, he couldn't openly defy the public. He was no match for those fearless powerhouses, so he slipped away early and hid in the distance.
"Is that your ability? Heh, that's really interesting..." Easily dodging the machine gun attack, Fujitora's face showed a hint of amusement.
He noticed the "doors" or rather, "windows" that appeared on this guy's body, and the small figures that appeared from them, making people somewhat disbelieving.
"Huh!"
"What's going on?"
Capone Bege inexplicably collapsed to the ground, directly pressed down by powerful gravity, unable to stand up. His face changed dramatically.
But having eaten a Devil Fruit, his body had been modified by the Castle-Castle Fruit's ability, making him as sturdy as a fortress. He was able to withstand such gravity, and he himself was not injured.
"To the left!"
"Aim and fire!!!"
Rustle, rustle...
Pew, pew...
Dozens or even hundreds of bullets, accompanied by a few cannon shots, poured out. But Fujitora had already disappeared from his spot. His right hand pressed on the hilt of the black sword he held in his left hand, and he directly drew out a small sword tip.
"Hell Journey!"
Crack, crack...
A calm voice came forth. Terrifying gravity was suddenly applied. The ground began to twist and break apart.
Capone Bege himself felt his entire body expanding rapidly, his body about to be crushed and explode!
"ROAR!!!"
The next moment, whether it was the bullets that were just urgently firing or the cannonballs, they all, along with Capone Bege himself, were directly pressed into the ground by the raw power.
The ground within a radius of several meters was completely pulverized, and a huge deep pit appeared.
It was a shocking sight!
"Whoosh!"
With a flick of his sword tip, powerful anti-gravity was applied in the deep pit. Capone Bege, who had been struggling miserably in the pit, was directly flung out into the air.
"Whoosh!"
He was half-dead, covered in blood, lying there, having lost consciousness.
If it were anyone else, under that terrifying gravitational field, they would have long turned into a bloody pulp. Capone Bege had not directly died, which was enough to show the solidity of his body.
Swish—
A translucent barrier appeared.
Hundreds of people, as well as muskets and cannons, suddenly appeared, filling the space within a dozen meters.
"Looks like the ability failed..."
Fujitora, quick of eye and hand, directly kicked Capone Bege back out and lifted him.
Swish...
"Since we've already gotten what we wanted, should we leave directly, or completely deal with these guys?" Cavendish appeared like a whirlwind, brandishing his dripping Western sword. "I'm too lazy to make a move. Killing these weaklings really gives no sense of accomplishment."
At the same time, a black shadow stood directly in front of him, acting as a human shield.
"Godfather (father)..."
"Damn it! These devils..."
"Fight! Save Boss Bege!"
Those who survived under Cavendish and his shadow shield, as well as the personnel released from Capone's body, cried out loudly.
Even if his character wasn't great, Capone Bege certainly seemed to have quite a charismatic personality, with no shortage of loyal subordinates.
A considerable portion of them, fearless of death, rushed over with machine guns and rocket launchers, wanting to rescue this guy from Fujitora's hands.
. . . Requesting fresh flowers . . .
"Hmph, asking for trouble!"
Fujitora's gaze turned cold. He directly held his sharp black sword flat before him.
His entire body, subtly, intermittently, exuded a faint purple glow. The surrounding atmosphere seemed to freeze.
Rumble...
Ah, ah...
"What's going on?"
"Did an earthquake happen?"
In that instant, the entire ground suddenly trembled.
The huge castle completely collapsed without warning, causing the gang members to lose their footing and fall to the ground.
But before they could even recover, the next moment...
In the somewhat gloomy night, a terrifying scene unfolded.
Rumble...
Countless tiles, and the ground that was literally peeled away, flew up into the sky one after another, as if suddenly all gravity had been lost, strangely floating high in the air.
Unparalleled fear directly filled the hearts of those gang members.
In just a few short breaths, the entire sky was obscured by floating shattered rocks and tiles, completely darkening, causing people's scalps to numb...
"Hey, hey, isn't that a bit too exaggerated...?"
Seeing this somewhat shocking scene, Cavendish's pupils sharply constricted: "This guy, he actually has such an ability..."
He hadn't expected Fujitora to actually have such a move. He had never seen him use it before!
"Since you find it troublesome, then resolve all of them at once!" Fujitora, holding his black sword level, directly tossed Capone Bege to Cavendish, saying somewhat coldly.
Having been raised in a place like Germa, and subjected to brutal training, aside from his feelings for Germa 66, killing more people didn't evoke much reaction from him.
Without the slightest hesitation, the ability was directly activated!
Rumble...
Ah, ah...
In an instant, those gang members cried out miserably, directly buried alive by the falling tiles, giant rocks, and raw earth...
