One Piece: Trying 200 times harder, but being too overbearing.

When the pirates discovered that Captain Kuro was not on board, and that lights were flashing on distant islands and explosions were heard, it was clear that a fierce battle had taken place.

Bad thoughts welled up in my mind.

Captain Crowe is in danger!

Although the pirates' average IQ is close to negative, they still managed to figure out the truth based on the current situation.

Captain Crowe is fighting!

If the Black Cat Pirates lose their captain, they will inevitably fall apart; this is common knowledge in the pirate world.

Without the slightest hesitation, Zango immediately issued the order!

"Quick, bring the boat closer!"

"Yes!"

Xiluobu Village, Southern Forest.

"Dip to death!"

Right before the eyes of all the navy personnel, Kuro vanished without a trace, and the aura of death instantly enveloped everyone.

"Defensive formation!"

The officers roared with all their might, their voices filled with unconcealed fear. Even with some preparation, the Navy still had no way to retaliate against Kuro's most terrifying ultimate move.

Until Kuro stops, all the navy can do is defend and wait!

"Crack!"

Without warning, a large tree on the left side of the road was shattered into pieces!

The next second, five sharp slash marks appeared on the rock surface on the right!

Loya opened his eyes wide, trying to find Kro's whereabouts, but apart from the sudden attack marks, he could not catch any trace of him.

"Slap Death," Kro's strongest move, utilizes high-speed movement and cat claws to launch indiscriminate attacks. Its most terrifying aspect is its speed, which is impossible to catch even with the naked eye.

But because it was so fast, even Kro himself couldn't react in time and didn't know what he was going to hit.

"Ahhhh!!!"

"Help! Help me!"

The marines' screams echoed in my ears!

If you are touched by Kro's cat claws, you will be seriously injured and fall to the ground at best, and in severe cases you may even be cruelly dismembered.

Loya gripped his longsword tightly, cold sweat dripping down his forehead. Facing death for the first time made his body tremble.

A figure blocked his way.

"Don't be afraid, Loya."

Colonel Rhodes stood in front of Loya, using his body as a shield; his not-so-broad back was more reassuring than anything else.

Loya was startled. The fear that had gripped his heart gradually subsided, his body stopped trembling, and his breathing returned to normal.

Even if Kro's blade could strike you at any moment, you must not lose your composure. If you are frightened and retreat, you will only put yourself in greater danger.

Observe calmly and wait for an opportunity!

While "Slaughter" is terrifying, it also has a major drawback: continuous high-speed movement and attacks consume a great deal of stamina and cannot be sustained for long.

The moment Kuro stops will be the moment for the Navy to counterattack!

1 second, 2 seconds.

Time seemed to stretch out at this moment, each second feeling incredibly long.

"Qiang!"

Suddenly, Colonel Rhodes raised his sword to block in front of him, sparks flying from the blade, and several bloody gashes appeared on his side!

It blocked it, but not completely!

"Colonel Rhodes!"

"I'm fine, don't panic!"

Colonel Rhodes clutched his bloodied and mangled waist, his eyes unwavering. Having been a marine for over twenty years, he had faced more than a dozen life-or-death crises, and this injury was not enough to make him back down.

"Finbuddy!"

"understand!"

Loya roared and stood to the left of Colonel Rhodes, while Finbdi suppressed his fear and quickly moved to the right of Colonel Rhodes, protecting him in the center.

Colonel Rhodes is the pillar and soul of Branch 153. Once the colonel falls, the morale of the troops will inevitably be impacted, and they may collapse as quickly as pirates without their captain.

That's all!

Loya's face was contorted with bulging veins.

Even if he dies here, he will not back down an inch. He came here not to be a burden.

30th second!

The slashing attack stopped!

The next moment, Kro suddenly appeared on the right side of the battlefield, panting heavily. He had already been severely injured and used "Slaughter," which put a great strain on his body.

When he saw the results of the "scoop death" attack, his breath caught in his throat!

The marines' casualties were much less than he had expected; in fact, they were completely unexpected!

"shield?"

Kro immediately figured out the reason.

Each of the innermost marines wore a huge wooden shield, forming a shield wall that firmly protected them. The surface of the shield was also covered with a layer of iron.

The shield wall limited the slaughter of "Dipper Death"!

The navy has even come up with a way to counter his ultimate move.

Kro felt a long-lost fear; everything was going against his expectations, leaving him bewildered.

Is he really going to die here?!

The captains raised their swords and roared in anger!

"Assault team, attack!"

"For justice!!!"

"Oh oh oh!!!"

The marines abandoned their shields and charged forward with a roar.

"For justice!"

Loya, his eyes also bloodshot, charged to the front. As he closed the distance with Kro, he stomped the ground and leaped up, gripping his long sword with both hands and bringing all his strength down in a downward slash!

"Qiang!!!"

The blade slashed heavily at the cat's paw!

The powerful impact caused Kro to stagger backward, and before he could regain his footing, the other marines rushed up!

There is nowhere to run!

"Silent Step!"

Kuro staggered, dodging the marines' attacks in a sorry state. Severely injured and exhausted, he was unable to use "Slaughter," and excessive blood loss made him feel dizzy.

If he cannot change the current situation, he will surely die!

"How can I die here! How can I die at the hands of the navy!"

Kro's eyes were bloodshot as he struggled desperately, but the increasing injuries on his body made his movements increasingly weak.

The navy was like madmen, completely unafraid of death. For every person they cut down, a dozen more would rush up to fight.

The fear of death gradually took hold of Chloe's heart.

“There’s still hope!”

Kuro raised his cat paw and blocked the black-haired marine's full-force slash once again, placing his hopes on someone else for the first time.

He still has his men. Those idiots must have discovered the battle here. As long as he can hold out until they arrive, he has a chance to survive!

Suddenly, shouts of battle grew louder as they approached!

"Men, wipe out the navy!"

"Protect Captain Crowe!"

"Kill!"

Dozens of brutal pirates charged towards the coast!

However, the Navy could no longer afford to worry about the pirates appearing behind them. As long as they could take down Kuro, this war would be a victory for the 153rd Branch.

For the current situation, Branch 153 has risked everything.

"Oh!"
