While Sherwin and Hawkeye were passionately slashing at each other with Spirit Blade and knock-off Spirit Blade attacks, the other Warlords had also found their respective opponents.
Hancock, who had received favors from the Felynes, naturally could not truly bring herself to oppose Sherwin and the others, so she pulled Baby-5 over and put on a show of a "friendly match."
Moriah and Cavendish, having long since learned the strength of the Felynes, also wisely bypassed the furry youngsters and clashed with the Revolutionary Army instead.
"Avalo Pizarro," the "Corrupt King" who had been locked away in Impel Down years ago, indeed did not know how formidable the Felynes were. However, this guy was quite slippery noticing that Hancock and the others were intentionally avoiding those little "Minks," he refrained from making a move on the Felynes as well, and instead...
Turned around to pick a fight with Yamato, who also had a pair of horns on her head.
Only that treasure hunter, nicknamed "Treasure Madman" Mad Treasure, hesitated not at all as he went straight for the Palicoes, and his opening move was an AOE attack...
"Mad Chain!"
Several iron chains flew out from Treasure body, sweeping toward the Felynes who had boarded the Moby Dick.
"Gihahahahaha! You little guys! There are people in the black market paying top dollar for you! All of you, obediently become my trophies!"
As soon as these words came out, they instantly drew side-glances from the surrounding people, and even Mihawk, who was passionately slashing with Sherwin, couldn't help but distract himself to glance at this guy.
Truly worthy of having "Madman" in his nickname the last time Sherwin had heard someone wanting to snatch the Felynes was the last time...
Cough... to be precise, it was when he attended the Reverie with the Ryugu Kingdom back when he was still a Warlord.
But the problem was, back then, the one who dared to say such a thing was a stupid Celestial Dragon who boasted about being a "god" so much that he even deceived himself. Who on earth was this guy named Mad Treasure?! Was there even such a person in the original story?
Until now, Sherwin still hadn't remembered that this guy was actually the boss from the TV Special: Heart of Gold.
It couldn't be helped the One Piece anime was too sluggish, and very few of its original filler plots were worth watching. Thus, Sherwin impression of this special only remained at the level of there being a super massive anglerfish, and a peculiar metal named "Pure Gold" that could delay the aging of life.
As for that "big BOSS" who clearly appeared after the Dressrosa arc, but couldn't even force out Luffy Gear 4 and was defeated by a single Elephant Gun from Gear 3, how could Sherwin possibly remember him.
Sherwin, who really couldn't recall who the other party was, quickly withdrew his gaze and continued to clash swords with Hawkeye...
For a guy who couldn't read the room like this, his own Felynes would teach him a lesson.
And things developed exactly as Sherwin thought. Mad Treasure chains had only flown halfway when they were entangled by another chain flying from the side.
"Hehehe~ Since we both use chains, let me play with you, meow~"
(●ω●)
Suika Meow took a sip of wine from her sake gourd, wiped the leftover liquid from the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand, and violently yanked the chain with her other hand, pulling Mad Treasure over.
"Gihahaha! Then I'll capture you first!"
Flying in the air, Mad Treasure shook both hands, actively causing the entangled chains to dissipate, and then recreated several chains, wrapping them around his arms, making his look resemble Mega Man.
"Chain Hammer!"
Mad Treasure brandished his "iron wire fists" and smashed down toward Suika Meow head.
"Huhuhu~ Nebula Chain, meow!"
(●●)
The little drunken Felyne, whose playful nature was thoroughly aroused, didn't use her best fighting style either. Instead, she brandished the chains on both hands, whipping them toward the opponent as if cracking whips.
Mad Treasure hastily raised both arms to shield his head, but he never expected that the seemingly slender chains in Suika Meow hands possessed an incredibly astonishing weight. He was completely slammed into the ice layer created by Aokiji by this single "whip."
"Gahahahahahaha! As expected of a 'rare and exotic beast' with a bounty exceeding one billion! You really are the perfect opponent to light a fire under my treasure hunting game!"
Mad Treasure quickly crawled out of the ice layer completely unscathed. Having just suffered a loss, he showed no signs of having learned his lesson instead, he laughed even more wildly.
"The more you are like this! The more value you have to be plundered!"
A large number of chains shot out from his body, piercing like venomous snakes toward Suika Meow, who had already changed into her Cloth-version combat uniform and continued to cosplay Shun.
Seeing the little drunk cat having a good time, the other Felynes did not go to disturb her. They stopped paying attention to Mad Treasure, a guy whose head seemed to have a bit of a problem, and went to look for their own respective opponents.
"Flying Felyne Sword Style: Felyne Pounce Flash Meow!"
(=`ω=)
Since Mihawk, the most powerful swordsman, was taken by Sherwin, Seijuro Meow decisively locked onto Shiryu of the Rain, whose sense of sharpness was equally high.
"Humph humph humph... A Mink? I don't think I've ever actually seen one in Impel Down. This is perfect to see how your blood differs from other races!"
Drawing his beloved blade "Thunderstorm" to block Seijuro Meow attack, a cruel smile appeared on Shiryu face.
Using the opposing force to flip and land on the ground, the little black cat gently twitched his nose twice...
"Such a thick scent of blood... So you are a swordsman who walks the path of Shura, meow?"
(=ˇˇ=)
There was a hint of disgust in Seijuro Meow expression. Although this kind of swordsman who indulged in slaughter was not weak in strength, he did not provide much help to his own swordsmanship.
Moreover, what this upright samurai cat looked down upon the most was this kind of guy who only cultivated sword techniques but not the sword heart. He did not even really want to acknowledge the other party as a swordsman.
"Tsk... picked the wrong opponent, then... let just end this quickly, meow."
The little black cat sheathed his blade and assumed a Iai stance.
"Flying Cat Mitsurugi Style - Amakakeru Neko no Hirameki!"
(=`ー=)
"I am truly being underestimated!"
Shiryu naturally heard Seijuro Meow murmuring. Facing this incomparably breathtaking flash of the blade slashed out by the little black cat, Shiryu showed no weakness and raised his blade to meet it.
"Clang——!!!"
Two longswords of vastly different sizes collided fiercely, exploding into a massive shockwave centered around the two of them, causing even the thick layer of ice beneath their feet to produce a wide area of spiderweb-like cracks.
Although following the Shura swordsmanship despised by Seijuro Meow, Shiryu still possessed the strength to eventually serve as the captain of the Blackbeard Pirate second ship and successfully launch a sneak attack to take Garp kidney in the future.
Though it was somewhat forced, Shiryu still managed to block this style of Amakakeru Neko no Hirameki. Even on the surface, it appeared that he and Seijuro Meow had merely fought to a draw.
However, before Shiryu could even breathe a sigh of relief, the little black cat before him, who had brought immense pressure upon him, had already slashed out a second blade. Furthermore, the speed of this strike was unexpectedly a whole lot faster than the one just now.
The core characteristic of Amakakeru Ryu no Hirameki... ah no, Amakakeru Neko no Hirameki, besides the "super-divine speed drawing of the blade", is being able to immediately slash out a second blade with even faster speed and absolutely no gaps after slashing out the first blade!
