Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

Ron also frowned.

Xiu Zhi roared at those people, "What are you doing?!"

The naval students who attacked Zephyr were filled with fear and panic.

"I'm sorry, teacher! My body is out of control, please stop!"

"Get away from me! Stay away from me!"

"no, do not want!"

The naval students cried and screamed as they began indiscriminately attacking their comrades around them.

"Fufufufufu, this is really exciting, Zephyr. How does it feel to be attacked by your beloved student?"

Doflamingo looked at Zephyr and chuckled.

Despite suffering four gunshot wounds and three knife wounds, Zephyr stared intently at him, gritting his teeth.

"go to hell."

Doflamingo raised his hand, and several white lines slashed towards the injured Zephyr.

Although Zephyr raised his arm, hardened with Armament Haki, to block, he was still pushed back several meters.

Doflamingo extended his finger again, and more threads fell onto the remaining naval students, controlling them to kill each other.

"What a beautiful view!"

Doflamingo was thoroughly enjoying himself.

"Stop, stop!"

Zephyr could no longer bear it, and carrying his old and injured body, he charged toward Doflamingo.

But soon, some Marines controlled by Doflamingo blocked his way.

Some attacked him, while others turned their weapons on themselves.

"Is it alright if all these students you love most die, Zephyr?"

Doflamingo's demonic voice rang in Zephyr's ears. He stared at the familiar faces before him, their faces filled with panic, fear, and tears, and trembled uncontrollably.

He couldn't bear to watch them die.

Doflamingo's lips curled into a sinister, cold-blooded smile. He flashed in front of Zephyr and raised his foot to kick him.

"Foot shave line!"

"Breathing of Thunder, First Form, Thunderclap Flash!"

With a deafening roar that tore through the air, a flash of golden lightning disappeared from the warship's deck.

Doflamingo's foot lashed out, instantly severing the sharp white line that was cutting towards Zephyr.

A long sword crackling with golden lightning blocked Doflamingo's kick aimed at Zephyr.

Doflamingo narrowed his eyes as he looked at the black-haired boy in front of him who had blocked his attack with a long sword, his hair flying in the wind.

"Oh?"

54. The awakening of Observation Haki: The heavy price paid by the Navy (2/5)

Ron, his black bangs fluttering gently, looked up and stared intently at Doflamingo in front of him.

The enemy before him was definitely the strongest he had ever encountered!

"I heard the Navy specially recruited a very young intern, it must be you, kid. What's your name?"

Doflamingo withdrew his leg and looked down at Ron.

Ron didn't speak, but glanced at the naval students around him who were being controlled by Doflamingo's strings, then swung his sword in mid-air, severing all the strings.

Doflamingo narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze sweeping over the Raikiri in Ron's hand.

"Hey kid, you've got a pretty good knife. How about I take a look?"

He reached out his hand to Ron.

Several thin, invisible white lines wrapped around him from all sides.

Doflamingo's goal was to capture this kid whose strength had surprised him.

His ability to be specially recruited by the Navy as an intern and to follow Zephyr, along with his renowned sword and strength, must mean he is highly valued by the Navy.

If we capture him, we can use him as leverage in a deal with the Navy...

Doflamingo's eyes flashed behind his sunglasses as he suddenly increased the speed at which he grabbed Ron.

"Overpower! Harden!"

Ron gripped the hilt of the knife with both hands, his eyes sharp and piercing.

Facing an enemy far more powerful than himself at this stage, he felt incredibly calm, and all the sounds and details around him flashed through his mind.

Complete Collection of Sun Breathing Techniques!

"Flame Breathing - Fifth Form!"

"Flaming Tiger!"

He unleashed a massive slash, like a burning tiger, at Doflamingo's outstretched hand, incinerating the surrounding, almost imperceptible threads that reached Ron the instant they were within reach.

Doflamingo sensed the power and force contained in the slash, and his expression changed slightly.

His hand was about to be severed by this strike.

Doflamingo formed a claw with his five fingers, wrapped it with Armament Haki, and tore it forward with one claw!

"Five colored thread!"

Five lines of different colors collided with the giant slash that had coalesced into a burning tiger.

After only a few seconds of stalemate, Ron's slash was torn apart, and the five-colored lines continued to cut toward Ron with undiminished momentum.

This shows the difference in strength between the two at this point.

But in Ron's eyes at this moment, the five threads that were slicing towards him seemed to slow down. A lot of details were fed back into his mind, including the sharpness, toughness, speed, and the killing intent and malice contained in the five threads.

"I can cut it off!"

As Ron entered that wondrous state, his perception was amplified, and a glint of light flashed deep within his pupils.

He raised the Raikiri in his hand, and streaks of crimson flames, like the blazing sun, slowly spiraled from the hilt towards the blade.

Just a second before he was about to unleash that strike.

A jet-black iron fist shattered the five-colored lines that were cutting towards Ron.

Taking advantage of the brief moment that Ron was holding Doflamingo back, Zephyr, who had rendered all the Marine disciples incapacitated, used Shave to get in front of Ron.

With short purple hair and his sunglasses removed, he stared intently at Doflamingo. He was covered in blood and wounds, but his aura was incredibly strong. His eyes were filled with murderous intent as he stared at Doflamingo, like a ferocious tiger ready to devour its prey!

"Step back, Ron, leave the rest to me."

Zephyr, raising his two jet-black arms, stared at Doflamingo and stood in front of Ron.

Ron looked at the injuries on his back and wanted to say something.

Zephyr said in a deep voice, "I'm not so old that I need the help of a brat like you. Get out of my way!"

After saying that, he stomped his foot heavily and used his highly skilled Shave technique, instantly appearing in front of Doflamingo and slamming his fist down.

The entire warship was shaken.

Facing Zephyr's furious punch imbued with Armament Haki.

Doflamingo was punched from one end of the warship to the other, passing through countless layers of iron plates.

"cough!"

A mouthful of bright red blood spurted from Doflamingo's mouth.

As the shadow fell from above, Doflamingo's pupils contracted rapidly beneath his arrogant sunglasses.

boom!

Zefa collapsed from the sky.

The warship sank and tilted in this direction, causing the seawater on both sides to shake violently.

Doflamingo, who had barely dodged the attack, stood on the swaying warship, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, staring intently at Zephyr as he slowly rose to his feet.

"So this is... the strength of a Marine Admiral, Black Arm Zephyr. He's certainly not just all talk."

Zephyr, with his thick, muscular arms completely black, remained silent, locking onto him with murderous intent and imposing aura.

A bead of cold sweat trickled down Doflamingo's forehead.

"Hehehe, looks like I've angered a tiger today..."

He trailed off.

The warship shuddered again.

Zefa disappeared from the spot.
