Pirates of the Navy Thunder God

Chapter 289: Tea Pig, Single by Strength
Ron would never have thought that the fierce battle between the three of them would become a spectator event like a football game in the headquarters.

If one wants to become a candidate for general who can be directly promoted to general, in addition to recommendation from high-level officials, one naturally also needs to be widely recognized by the soldiers.

Therefore, every substitute challenge is broadcast live at the headquarters.

Letting the soldiers know who their general will be and how powerful the top combat force is is a very meaningful thing, both for inspiring enthusiasm internally and for deterring pirates externally.

Ron has only been in the navy for a short time, so it is normal that he does not know this rule. After all, he is not the only one who has joined the navy in the last five or six years and does not know this rule.

Of course, even if he knew, Ron wouldn't care given his personality.

Ron transformed into an element in advance to avoid Peach Rabbit's attack, and then generated electricity with his back hand, covering Peach Rabbit with a column of lightning.

The electric current takes over the vision and hearing. No matter where you look, it is all white. Being in it is like being in the vast ocean. People are like a small boat, looking so small.

But under Ron's destructive electric current, Taotu remained calm. The hot lightning was like a breeze on the face, and Taotu did not suffer any harm.

"This situation...is not good!"

fencing!

As expected, in an instant a sword intent as bright as a cicada in the moonlight burst out, directly tearing through the vast lightning that connected the sky and the blue sun.

In the cracking lightning, a peach rabbit with a metallic and inky black luster was revealed. The lightning column above her head was blocked by a layer of invisible energy, and the white fingers of the sword were flashing sharp.

Taotu actually used this pair of fingers to dig out a place for himself to hide in the lightning pillar!

Since ancient times, there have been legends of swordsmen slashing rivers with swords and reversing waterfalls. Ron didn't expect Taotu to be able to do this, and...

Just two fingers!
Breaking through the lightning column, Taotu's crystal eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and she twisted her wrist to take back Jinpilao. Thousands of sword shadows were swung, and Ron was wrapped in it in an instant.

It only takes a moment to turn from defense to offense!
Chi!

A tear appeared in his clothes, and Ron almost escaped from the sword light.

Fortunately, the Thunder Man was fast enough, otherwise Taotu’s sword would have torn his head into pieces!

boom!
As Ron let go, the lightning beam collapsed directly. Taotu was relentless at this time. He kicked his foot and turned into a black line, approaching quickly.

Moon step!

Ron's speed is terrifying and he can fly. If he fully exerts his power, I won't even be able to catch a glimpse of him. This is also one of the inherent weaknesses of a swordsman.

Neither she nor Chatun had any good way to limit that speed, and now that she had the chance to get close, Taotu would naturally not let it go.

Close combat is the swordsman's strong point!

As long as you don't face those weird devil fruits, a sword is enough.

And Ron happened to be one of those people who had strange fruit abilities.

The lightning fragments pulled out a long beautiful tassel behind her, and Taotu came to Ron in almost an instant. The Jinbi Luo in her hand made a sword sound, and the arm muscles were like springs stretched to the extreme, and she cut out a sword in an instant!
fast!
Extremely fast!

Taking strength into consideration at the same time, Ron believed that Peach Rabbit's sword could easily split the fortress of Marinford.

"If only the thundercloud hadn't broken..."

Ron missed Leiyun very much at this moment.

When getting in close combat with a swordsman, never be too confident in your Armament Haki. Zephyr once sternly warned Ron about this, no matter how high the level of Haki is.

In fact, in the entire ocean, apart from Kaido, there is almost no one who dares to confront the great swordsman's sword head-on with his physical body.

Yes, he is almost dead.

It’s not that the strength of the thundercloud is comparable to his body with the armed color domineering, but that Taotu’s eyes have already completely seen through him at this time. No matter how he defends now, it is all within Taotu’s calculations!

Listen to the breathing of all things and see through all flaws!
This is the great swordsman's signature ability!
No enemy is left unkilled, no enemy is left unkilled!
It is actually very simple to break this fatal lock... Taotu only has him in her eyes now, and her mind is only thinking about how to cut him in half. If there is something else standing between the two of them at this moment, Taotu will need to be distracted to make judgments, and this lock that is infused with all her will will naturally break by itself.

Of course, the premise is that the gap is not too big.

Ordinary weapons made of scrap metal would not be able to withstand a single blow from a great swordsman, even if they were not locked by the sword intent. The secret of cutting iron was a prerequisite for understanding the breathing of all things and reaching the state of cutting everything without stopping. Only a supreme sword like Leiyun was qualified to compete with a great swordsman.

Besides thunderclouds, does Ron have anything to distract Peach Rabbit and block the attack?

The answer is no...but Chatun does!

Ding!
Just as Taotu's sword was about to cut Ron, a big grinning face appeared behind Taotu.

"Sorry, it seems I got an advantage!" The three-way melee was all about sneak attacks and taking advantage of opportunities. Now that the two of them were busy with their own affairs, it was a good time for him to sneak attack.

The short and skinny Chatun was seen comically spreading his legs to keep the Moon Step floating in the air, with his hands fingers stretched out and interlocked in front of his face.

Finger gun·cross tear kill!

The movement was so fast that time seemed to stop. The fingers could not be seen moving at all, but sharp blades appeared out of thin air.

That was definitely not a speed that a human could achieve, because the movement was so fast that even Ron felt ashamed of himself, and Chatun's devil fruit was about to come out.

Almost at the moment he made his move, ten stacked sharp blades shot straight towards Taotu's vest!

This move was obviously intended to kill both of them with one blow, causing them to be defeated directly!

But suddenly, Chatun found that Ron's eyes, which were slowly moving towards his face, were smiling.

Chatun has seen that kind of smile many times. Every time Ron shows this kind of look, someone will be in trouble!

as predicted!

"Tea, pig!!"

The sound that sounded like coming from the Nine Netherworld made Chatun shudder. Taotu turned his head unwillingly, and the Jinbi Luo that was resting on Ron's neck swung backhand, sweeping swiftly from top to bottom!
Clang!
Bang!
The sound of glass breaking echoed between heaven and earth. Taotu took a deep breath and thrust the blade forward.

"Go to hell!"

laugh……!
Taotu pierced through Chatun's cloak with a knife, but his hatred did not diminish and he continued to swing the knife forward.

If Chatun had not suddenly appeared, Ron would have been crippled if not killed by this knife. If the two of them had a little bit of tacit understanding during his healing time, it would not be impossible for them to join forces and throw Ron into the sea, declaring his defeat.

Fortunately, Ron's savior, Chatun, came.

How did the former captain of the assassination unit change his sinister and cunning fighting style? It's just like you can't change what you eat.

It was normal for him to want to kill two people with one strike, but it also forced Taotu to break away from his extremely concentrated state.

At this moment, Ron could easily dodge the attack by using the same old trick and transforming into an element in advance.

"You even want to catch all the girls you're courting. You deserve to be single until now!"

Being single based on one's own strength counts as this!
Ron grinned, looking at the two people who were gradually rising up with the Moon Step, and he lunged and punched.

Thunder light...

Killing cannon!
The situation is reversed!

In Marinford, the soldiers in the square stared with their mouths wide open in shock at the vast lightning that stretched the sky.

With their eyesight, they could not see the danger in the fight between the three men. They only knew that Vice Admiral Taotu had the advantage. Suddenly, Chatun made a sneak attack, which not only disrupted Taotu's attack, but also gave Ron room to counterattack.

There was silence for three seconds, and the square fell into noise.

"What are you doing, Master Chaton?!"

"Vice Admiral Taotu is so pitiful. He tried so hard!"

"Come on, onee-sama! You are the most beautiful!"

"This is cheating! I'm going to report to the Marshal that Vice Admiral Chaton has been bribed! Taotu's men will not admit defeat!"

Unlike the soldiers sitting on the square, Cap, who was sitting on the simple stands, opened his mouth wide for two seconds, then "puff" a mouthful of debris spat out.

“Hahahahahaha!! What on earth is that bastard Chatun thinking?!”

If he hadn't suddenly appeared, Ron would have definitely made a fool of himself. But not only was Ron fine, but he was the one who was chased by Taotu and made a mess.

"The purpose of the assassination unit training course is to obtain the greatest benefits with the least effort. Lieutenant General Chatun has been trained in this way since he was a child. It is a bit difficult to let him give up the opportunity just now."

Zefa moved the lid and glanced at the bottom of the teapot, then took a sip of tea and said quietly.

"But Taotu is also very good. She was able to withdraw her moves and counterattack immediately... This kind of handy and effortless control is great!"

Of course, what made Ron happiest was that he didn't make a fool of himself.

However, Zefa would not say such things out loud, as it would make him seem petty.
