I'm a big pirate, and you said I just went out to sea?

Chapter 146 Who is the hunter and who is the prey?
Inside Pangu City.

The kings and guards from all the member states of the government around the world all fainted.

The final burst of Conqueror's Haki.

Im didn't attack Mongols; instead, to deceive others, he directly stunned the remaining, stronger kings and guards.

Im didn't want to do this either.

But Monger actually called out her name just now!
"White Wolf Munger!"

Im didn't know where Munger learned her name, but the truth hidden in history must never be exposed.

Munger must die!
Little did Munger know, he had only casually called out Im's name.

As a result, Im was stressed.

He's like he's stirred up a hornet's nest now, with a whole bunch of top World Government experts following him. If he slows down even a little, he'll inevitably get ganged up on.

And right behind him, the closest to him, are Venus Izanbaron V. Nassshuro and Mars Macas Mazsan.

In particular, even after Monger transformed into the white wolf, he was unable to get rid of the giant bird that was the incarnation of Marcus Maz.

"Thunderfire Flame!"

Flames and lightning erupted from the giant bird, which had a bird's head, wings, and claws, but a snake's body. Like a bolt of lightning, it struck Monger from a distance of thousands of meters.

Boom~
The power was enough to easily destroy a Lightning ship, but it didn't stop Mongo from moving an inch. Before each bombardment landed, Mongo seemed to have foreseen it and directly avoided the Lightning's attack.

"Is the sight of sex domineering?"

Realizing that Mongo's Observation Haki might be superior to his own, Marcus Mazsan immediately abandoned the idea of ​​attacking from a distance.

With its enormous bird wings and serpentine body joined together, Marcus Mazsan's body charged toward Monger like a osprey on the hunt.

Since long-range attacks are ineffective.

Then let's fight in close combat!

They just learned from Lucas that Mongo has no way to break the immortality, in other words, there is no risk in fighting Mongo in close combat.

That's right.

It's not just the Knights of God.

The Five Elders, who constitute the highest authority of the World Government, are also immortal, possessing five top-tier Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruits, Admiral-level strength, and immortality.

Even Munger, if faced with two or more of them alone, including two of the Five Elders, might be worn down and killed by this shameless ability.

But one-on-one?
The wolf-like Mongols ran swiftly through the forests of Mary Geoise, and the moment he saw the giant bird that was the incarnation of Marcus Maz fall from the sky, Mongols leaped up from the ground.

The long knife held in the wolf's mouth turned pitch black in an instant, and black and red lightning dragged the sharp knife, colliding with the giant bird's claws.

boom------! ! !
The black and red lightning covered the forest within a radius of hundreds of meters. Faced with the materialized domineering aura, ordinary trees were instantly reduced to countless fragments.

The giant bird that Marcus Mazs transformed into was clearly much larger.

However, after the collision occurred.

Marcus Mazsan was surprised to find that his power was actually inferior to that of Monger.

"Kagari!"

Even in his beast form, not his strongest human-beast form, Monger's heart was pounding violently. At the moment of impact, a burst of blood mist erupted from Monger's body, staining his white fur red.

Thump!
Marcus Mazsan's body crashed heavily to the ground, shattering the earth, but following closely behind him was a skeletal horse exuding an ominous aura.

boom!
The skeletal horse, hurtling at high speed, crashed heavily into the wolf-like body of Mongo.

"cough"

Monger swallowed the blood that was about to enter his mouth. After fighting several general-level powerhouses in succession, and being hit head-on by Im, he had to use Life Return once. Even with his strong cell regeneration ability, his condition was inevitably declining.

But he can't stop now.

Behind the giant bird that is the incarnation of Marcus Maz and the bone horse that is the incarnation of Izanbaron V. Nassjuro.

A spider monster tens of meters tall, a giant wild boar, a huge sandworm, and Saint Lucas—four top-tier powerhouses—were in pursuit.

If he stops here, he's doomed!

"Is that teleportation magic circle also a Devil Fruit ability?"

Monger didn't even have time to catch his breath.

But at this critical moment, he looked at his system panel.

In the Sabaody Archipelago.

He had already achieved a milestone by defeating Sora and Ortega's combined forces and sealing away Grand Saint, the vice-commander of the Knights of God.

Therefore, the system had already settled the account for him at that time, but he just didn't claim the task reward.

The reward for this mission was precisely what gave Munger the confidence to come to Mary Geoise.

In the year 1483 of the Sea Calendar, you joined forces with the two captains of the Giant Warrior Pirates to defeat Admiral Kong, the current Marine instructor and former Marine Admiral Ortega Saiven, leaving an indelible impression on Vice Admiral Garp and Vice Admiral Sengoku.

[You've unlocked a milestone—the enemy of the Navy!]

When facing enemies from the navy, your cells will become more active, and your cellular activity will be enhanced.

You have received a healing reward!

You've unlocked a new battle quest—the endless battle!

[When you defeat a qualified master swordsman, a top-tier user of Observation Haki, a top-tier user of Armament Haki, a top-tier user of physical combat, or a top-tier user of a Devil Fruit ability.]

[You have acquired a special Conqueror's Haki—Observation Haki!]

[Current task completed!]

Having once received systematic healing assistance, Munger knew very well just how outrageous the system's healing effects were.

Aside from physical aging caused by age, all injuries on the body, including previously incurable hidden wounds, can be completely healed.

As long as he has a breath left, Monger can fully recover.

This is why Monger recklessly consumed his life force, almost risking his life to fight Lucas and the others.

Because Mengge can afford to take the risk!
The reason for pushing themselves to this extent was because of this battle-tested quest that appeared on the Monger system panel after the battle of the Sabaody Archipelago.

Although the system's criteria for judgment are unknown, Monger had already achieved four defeats before heading to Mary Geoise.

Rona was defeated by a great swordsman, Sebastian by Observation Haki, Sora by physical combat, and Ottelga by Armament Haki.

Strictly speaking, the battle between Monger and Ortega was not completely decided.

However, Ortega himself admitted defeat.

If he hadn't been at a disadvantage against Monger in the beginning, Sora wouldn't have ended up having to face Dorry, Brogy, and Monger all at the same time.

The final Devil Fruit was defeated.

Just now, Monger severely injured Stephens at the cost of an arm, piercing through Stephens' right lung lobe with a single blow.

Even though Stephens is a Zoan-type Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit user, such injuries are enough to render him unable to fight.

Therefore, Munger gained new abilities.

At that moment, in the perceptions of Marcus Mazsan and Izambaron V. Nassshuro, Munger seemed to have suddenly vanished.

Even though they could clearly see Mong's presence, they had absolutely no way of predicting Mong's movements and had no idea what Mong would do next.

The overwhelming sense of incongruity caused both of them to pause in their movements.

And it was just this brief respite.

To their astonishment, Marcus Mazsan and Izambaron V. Nassshuro discovered that Mongo's aura was actually increasing.

After such a long battle, fighting against so many top-tier experts in succession, even they, with their immortal bodies, would not be able to withstand it.

But what about Munger?
Not only is he getting stronger with each battle, but his aura seems to have returned to its original state? "Don't worry, he's just bluffing!"

The sinister skeletal horse suddenly changed its form, its enormous body shrinking until it became a centaur nearly six meters tall.

The upper body of the centaur is Venus, one of the Five Elders.

His abilities are remarkably similar to those of Monger.

"Stop this nonsense!"

With a low shout, Izanbaron V. Nasujuro Sei drew his sword and swung it. The long sword in his hand was none other than "Kitetsu," one of the twelve supreme grade swords!
It is also the first sword in the Onikiri series.

Izabaron V. Nasujuro's sword strike felt somewhat familiar to Mongo. Both were great swordsmen and both possessed ice-type Devil Fruit abilities, which meant that Mongo had essentially become his own opponent.

If it were just now, with his stamina greatly depleted, Monger might have had some difficulty taking that blow, since his condition wasn't as good as it was at the beginning.

but now.

He has already used the system's one chance to cure him.

The current Munger is the Munger of his prime!

"Shall we have a swordsmanship contest?"

In an instant, Munger transformed from his white wolf form into his human-beast form.

"Then come on!"

The entire forest of people transplanted by the Celestial Dragons was frozen, and two longswords gleaming with frost collided at an extremely fast speed.

"Winter Country!"

Monger immediately unleashed his favorite wide-range slash, and Izanbaron V. Nassjuro Sei retaliated in kind.

But it wasn't until the blades clashed that Izambaron V. Nassjuro realized something was wrong. Mongo didn't seem like someone whose stamina had been greatly depleted; his condition seemed to have never declined from the very beginning.

"not good!"

If he weren't immortal, Izanbaron V. Nassjuro would be just an ordinary general-level powerhouse, and even Lorna might not be at a disadvantage against him.

But what he had to face was Munger at his peak, back in form.
boom! !

The icy mist surrounding Izambaron V. Nasujuro was dispersed by Monger's sword light, and Monger's slash pierced through Izambaron V. Nasujuro's attack before landing on Izambaron V. Nasujuro.

"whispering sound!"

However, Izambaron V. Nassuro Sei showed no intention of defending against Monger's slash.

"I am immortal!"

Izanbaron V. Nasujuro took a few steps back, not gathering Armament Haki to defend against Monger's attack, but instead planning to counterattack Monger as soon as his arm recovered.

But what met her was Munger's smiling face.

"Oh, really?"

Having lost his Observation Haki ability to perceive Mongo's actions, Izabaron V. Nasujuro Sei is also unable to see his own future.

Every general-level powerhouse possesses top-tier Observation Haki proficiency.

The only question is how much time is available to predict the future.

But Monger was banned completely!
Without any warning from his Observation Haki, Izambaron V. Nasujuro had no idea what Munger had just done.

"I've discovered something."

Izambalon V. Nassuro found himself losing control of his body, and heard Munger's voice in his ear.

"Top-tier Conqueror's Haki seems to have a restraining effect on Devil Fruit abilities."

It's not just about resisting like Armament Haki!

But -

It's invalid!

Then Monger discovered something even more interesting.

All five elders were teleported here by a special ability; Mongo would not have been able to see them without awakening the ability to see and hear.

But now, Monger sees it.

Whether it's the Five Elders or Saint Lucas, they all have a shadow behind them; they themselves are like puppets on strings.

He only needs to touch it lightly with his domineering aura.

Izambalon V. Nassuro has disappeared.

The clash between Monger and Izanbaron V. Nassuro happened in the blink of an eye; even Marcus Mazsan didn't see what Monger did.

All that was seen was Monger severing Izabaron V. Nasujuro's arm, and then, under the influence of an extremely strong Conqueror's Haki, Izabaron V. Nasujuro disappeared.

Although he did not die.

But when they rediscovered Izambaron V. Nassuro.

But was shocked to find out.

Izanbaron V. Nassshuro has actually returned to Pangaea City!
I finally realized something.

Marcus Mazsun shouted in alarm and anger, "Lucas Saint, retreat!"

But it was too late.

They had been chasing them all the way, covering more than half the distance of Mary Geoise.

Even if we were to withdraw now, where could we possibly withdraw to?

Moreover, Monger is alone, while there are five people on their side.

Why withdraw?
At first, Lucas did not understand the meaning of the words of Marcus Maz.

until the next moment.

Marcus Mazsan, who was fighting Monger in front, also disappeared.

Then they faced four top experts.

Instead of retreating, Monger advanced, charging straight towards them.

"court death!"

Let's join forces and take him down!

"He's alone; we can cripple him with a single blow!"

"."

The remaining three Elders joined forces, intending to severely injure Munger in one blow.

However, a terrifying burst of Conqueror's Haki erupted.

If the distance were too far, Mongo might not have been able to decipher their Devil Fruit abilities, but at such close range, Mongo is now able to do so.

Three of the Five Elders disappeared at the same time.

Using some kind of Devil Fruit power, they instantly appeared around Saint Lucas and in front of Monger via a teleportation array.

However, after Munger deciphered this fruit's power.

All five elders returned to Pangaea City, leaving only Saint Lucas behind.

"Now, who is the hunter and who is the prey?"

Monger looked at Lucas Saint with a playful smile on his face.
