Pirates surged out like a tide, and seeing the nimble thief running further and further away, they hastily raised their guns, pulled the triggers, and fired frantically.
Flintlock pistols spat fire, and bullets poured out.
But the man seemed to have eyes in the back of his head, agilely dodging the spray of bullets while simultaneously swinging the giant scythe in his hand, blocking a dozen bullets.
Bullets sparked against the giant scythe, making a clanging sound.
"Kamaitachi!!"
The man grimaced, bent his legs, stomped down, and suddenly leaped dozens of meters, turning to swing his giant scythe.
A crescent-shaped slash, like a bolt of silk, flew out accompanied by the sound of wind chimes, and with a loud bang,
It sent the pursuing pirates sprawling, and a deep gash appeared in the ground.
"Damn it!!"
The Captain pirate, wearing a punk overcoat, narrowed his eyes and slammed his hands onto the ground with a thud.
His hands seemed to sink into water, and ripples spread across the ground. He flung them forcefully, and the ground surged like a wave, kicking up sand and dirt towards the man.
The man felt the ground beneath him shake and wobble, his body suddenly lost balance, and he stumbled, about to fall.
He quickly adjusted his posture, slowed down, but in his peripheral vision, he caught sight of a dirt wave, dozens of meters high, sweeping towards him.
He immediately swung the giant scythe in his hand, cutting the dirt wave in two.
Clumps of earth crashed down, kicking up dust.
Taking advantage of this gap, the pirates surrounded the man.
The pirate Captain grabbed a richly dressed, corpulent man by the neck and threw him to the ground like a dead dog.
"Give me the Devil Fruit! Whether it's you or Osborn Johnson, how dare you steal something I've set my sights on?!"
The Gravedigger, Tris Hiber, bounty 130,000,000 Berries.
Hiber, wearing a punk overcoat, with golden dreadlocks and an earring in his left ear, sneered, "I'm a Paramecia-type Soft-Soft Fruit user. I can make anything I touch as soft as jelly. Did you think I wouldn't know who you are just because you're wearing a mask? Otto Roya!"
The masked man laughed, his shoulders twitching slightly. He took off his mask and said playfully, "So I've been recognized, huh... Hiber, since you're already a Devil Fruit user, wouldn't it be good to do me a favor and give me this Devil Fruit?"
Otto Roya, bounty 110,000,000 Berries.
"Give it to you? Are you kidding me?!"
Hiber licked his lips with a hint of madness, "This island is currently swarming with bounty hunters. Wouldn't it be better to defeat you and then resell it to a bounty hunter?"
"It seems there's no room for discussion."
Roya's smile vanished. He put the Devil Fruit into his in my arms and raised the giant scythe above his head. He gripped the scythe's handle with his left hand and pulled outwards forcefully, drawing out a spiked longsword.
He held the spiked longsword in his left hand and the scythe blade in his right.
Looking at the pirates gradually closing in, he sneered and lunged towards them.
The two weapons in his hands transformed into butcher knives, sweeping and stabbing. With each fierce sword light that fell, severed limbs flew, and blood splattered everywhere.
Seeing Roya butcher Hiber's subordinates like vegetables, Hiber flew into a rage, plunging his hands into the earth. As ripples spread out,
The nearby ground completely softened!
As Hiber waved his hands, the flowing ground seemed to turn into an invisible giant hand, tossing his subordinates to safe places on either side.
Then Hiber suddenly made a slamming motion.
The ground on both sides of Roya surged like waves, crushing towards Roya in the middle!
Roya's face paled. Not daring to relax, he crossed his sword and scythe, performing a cross slash that shredded the plunging rocks and earth.
Roya charged towards Hiber, but Hiber used the ground to block and intercept him.
The two fought fiercely for over ten minutes. Finally, Hiber seized an opportunity, slammed his fist into the ground, and in front of Roya, not far away, a monstrous mud fist eerily shot out from the ground, sending Roya flying with a heavy blow.
He skidded all the way to Redfield, who was standing at the hotel entrance, holding a cane.
"Hiss..."
Roya winced in pain, his back burning.
When he focused and clearly saw the man standing before him, Roya's eyes widened, his pupils dilated, and he cried out, "Re... Redfield?!"
Redfield snorted softly, sneering contemptuously, "Brat, are you blocking my way?"
Roya froze for a moment, then quickly shook his head and moved aside, simultaneously sighing in relief. Thank goodness, he wasn't here to snatch the Devil Fruit.
Seemingly seeing through Roya's thoughts, Redfield said with disdain, "Relying on such false power will never amount to anything."
Then Redfield changed the subject, looking at Kaido, who was standing on the rooftop, exuding a terrifying aura: "Of course, you're different."
Bang!!
Kaido leaped down from the rooftop, shaking the street and sending bricks and stones flying. He looked at Redfield with cold eyes: "I once met a fellow who, by controlling his aura and Conqueror's Haki, blocked the opponent's Observation Haki, preventing them from predicting the future."
"Red! You said, when you can't foresee the future and can't peer into others' hearts, can you still maintain this calm?"
Kaido strode towards Redfield.
Compared to Redfield's slender build, he was practically a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex.
He stared down at Redfield from above.
"Can anyone really achieve that level?"
Redfield's expression changed slightly, but he quickly looked disbelieving and chuckled, "Stop trying to amuse me, brat."
"Hey, hey, I don't care what kind of great pirates you are. Now you've interfered with my good fortune and still dare to chat here nonchalantly. I'll send you to hell right now!!!"
A sudden voice came. Hiber walked over with a gloomy face, plunged his hand into the ground, and immediately launched an attack: "Mudslide! Great Burial!"
The ground beneath their feet trembled, and the earth rolled like an earthen dragon, engulfing the buildings on both sides of the street and turning them into colossal waves of sand and earth that crushed towards Kaido and Redfield.
As they were about to be engulfed, the two simultaneously looked at Hiber, their pupils flashing Red, and coldly shouted, "Get lost!!"
As the two roared, Conqueror's Haki swept out like a tsunami!!
The terrifying impact directly blew Hiber away, causing him to crash through a dozen buildings. The splashing crimson lightning wildly and violently struck the ground and surrounding buildings.
For a moment, the earth trembled violently, buildings swayed precariously, and large trees rustled loudly!!
Leaves fell rustling!!
Crack!!
The street split open, and cracks spread outwards with destructive force, tearing apart buildings and hills!
Trees toppled in the shaking!
Several shocking gullies appeared on the street, scaring people into panicked flight!
The surrounding sea area was also impacted by this terrifying force, the seawater surged, stirring up huge waves, churning and boiling!
This impact force collided and intertwined, carrying unparalleled power as it rushed high into the sky, dispersing the clouds!
In this instant, the air and time seemed to freeze.
The next moment!!
The sky suddenly split open, and several crimson chaotic lightning bolts struck down, piercing the earth!!
