One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha
Chapter 198 The Steam of the Crimson Lotus! A Gentle Tyrant and a Tacit Escape
Although the dawn brought light, it could not dispel the shadow of death that shrouded everyone's hearts.
Sanji's eyes, hidden by his blond hair, were fixed on Kuma, and he said coldly:
"If you want to touch our captain, you'll have to step over our dead bodies first."
Faced with the two key players' unwavering determination to fight to the death.
Viktor, who had been standing at the rear, displayed an unusual composure.
Seeing his comrades looking on with alarm, Viktor silently closed his eyes and cut off his chakra supply.
He shut down his Mangekyou Sharingan, which had been consuming a great deal of energy, and restored it to ordinary black eyes.
In this desperate situation.
Everyone present knew the true identity of the man on the city wall.
The Seven Warlords of the Sea, the Tyrant Kuma.
But this was just a facade he used to deceive others.
His true identity is that of a high-ranking officer in the Revolutionary Army, and also a close friend of Luffy's father, Monkey D. Dragon.
She is an incredibly tragic character.
"This guy, Kuma, is only here on orders from the World Government to eliminate the witnesses to Moria's defeat."
Viktor silently calculated in his mind, his eyes deep:
"He had no intention of killing us at all."
"But he needs a reason to explain himself to the world government."
"In that case... let me give you a way out, senior of the Revolutionary Army."
Having made up his mind, Viktor strode forward.
He bypassed Zoro and Sanji, using his own body to shield his two wounded companions behind him.
Without turning his head, he lowered his voice and spoke quickly in a volume only the three of them could hear:
"Zoro, Sanji, get ready."
Zoro and Sanji were visibly taken aback upon hearing this seemingly random statement.
They had no idea what earth-shattering plan this usually unfathomable vice-captain was plotting when facing a Shichibukai at his peak.
But the absolute trust forged through life and death along the way surpasses all words.
Neither of them raised any questions.
He immediately mustered the last bit of strength in his body, tensing his muscles to the limit, and replied in a deep voice:
"clear."
Viktor took a deep breath, letting the cool morning air fill his lungs.
The next second, he raised his hands, and his ten fingers instantly transformed into dazzling afterimages.
In a series of complex hand seals.
Two completely different types of chakra simultaneously coalesced within Viktor's body.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
With a low shout, the earth trembled violently.
In the foul-smelling moat surrounding the castle, a large amount of seawater was being forcibly drawn away by an invisible, immense force.
"roar--!"
The water surged skyward, converging and twisting in mid-air, transforming into a gigantic, menacing, roaring water dragon.
With immense force, it hurtled towards the sky above the two of them.
Immediately afterwards, Viktor switched hand seals.
His chest bulged high, he tilted his head back, and towards the direction of the water dragon in the sky, he spewed out terrifying flames as turbulent as a tsunami.
"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"
An extraordinary steam explosion occurred at this moment.
The intense heat and flames collided violently with the enormous water dragon in mid-air without any buffer.
"laugh----!!!"
The deafening explosion instantly reverberated through the sky.
The intense heat extinguished the raging fire.
The enormous water dragon, formed from tons of seawater, was completely evaporated the moment it came into contact with the water.
The collision of water and fire unleashed an unimaginable burst of high-temperature white steam.
The steam surged forth like a reversed avalanche, spreading wildly in all directions with tremendous force.
In the blink of an eye, a thick white fog that blotted out the sky completely swallowed up the ruins within a radius of several kilometers.
The whole world was plunged into a vast, dark expanse where no one could see their own hand in front of their face, and even the figure of the giant bear on the city wall was completely obscured.
Seeing the familiar white mist filling the sky, Zoro, Sanji, Nami, and Usopp's eyes lit up instantly.
Images from deep within my memory were awakened.
"This is... the move Victor used when he escaped the main force of the Navy in Loguetown!!"
In the heart of the thick, white fog, Victor turned around.
A confident smile, as if he had everything under control, played on his lips as he loudly proclaimed to his companions:
"Now! Run!!!"
"oh!!!"
No further explanation is needed; the Straw Hat Pirates' teamwork reached its peak at this moment.
No one hesitated.
No one questioned why they didn't stay and fight.
Franky's arms jerked violently, and with the help of his massive cyborg physique, he charged ahead without hesitation, clearing a path through the thick fog like a bulldozer.
Viktor moved with practiced ease, scooping the exhausted Nami into his arms and moving with lightning speed.
Robin chuckled and took long strides to follow closely behind.
Zoro hoisted the exhausted Luffy onto his broad shoulders and ran with gritted teeth.
Usopp unleashed an astonishing will to survive, grabbing Chopper with his left hand and Rasoo with his right, and dashed out like a gust of wind.
Sanji and Clay, the crow circling in the sky, consciously stayed at the very bottom of the group to cover the rear.
Under the cover of the intense heat and dense fog, everyone squeezed out the last bit of potential from their bodies.
They unleashed their maximum speed.
It sped toward the Golden Sunshine, which was anchored in the waters at the edge of the island.
……
And at the very center of the dense fog.
On the ruins of the city wall, the bear still stood quietly in the same spot.
He didn't take a single step to give chase, nor did he remove his gloves to use the Paw-Paw Fruit's ability to deflect everything and clear away the obstructing mist.
He stood there quietly in the white mist, letting the warm steam dampen his black coat.
Listening to the Straw Hat Pirates' chaotic footsteps fading into the distance deep within the thick fog.
This ruthless man, famous throughout the seas and feared by countless pirates, was known as the "Tyrant."
On his lifeless face, a rare, gentle smile, full of human warmth, appeared.
"You have a good son... Dragon."
In a deep voice that only he could hear, the bear murmured to himself in the mist:
"And there is a group of outstanding partners."
"He is not alone on this vast sea."
After confirming that the Straw Hat crew had escaped safely, Kuma slowly suppressed his smile and resumed his indifferent expression.
He took out his personal Den Den Mushi, a gold-plated, imposing-looking device, from his large bosom and smoothly pressed the answer button.
"Smack."
The signal on the other end of the Den Den Mushi connects instantly.
The golden Den Den Mushi immediately mimicked the calm and expressionless face of the bear at that moment.
"Marshal of the Warring States Period"
Big Bear's voice was steady and powerful, reporting in a businesslike manner.
"The Straw Hat crew has defeated Moria."
There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a deep breath suppressing anger.
Big Bear didn't pause, continuing in his monotone voice:
"However, just as the order to eliminate them was about to be carried out."
"I was blocked by an extremely eerie thick fog created by that man named 'Red Lotus'."
"They took advantage of my obstructed view to escape and leave this area of the sea."
"What?!"
On the other end of the Den Den Mushi, the furious roar of Fleet Admiral Sengoku overturning his massive desk came through instantly, accompanied by the clatter of documents scattering across the floor:
Damn it!!
"What exactly is this 'Red Lotus'?!"
"Even someone with your level of combat power can't stop him?!"
The roar of the Sengoku period made even the Den Den Mushi tremble.
"Damn the Straw Hat crew! They got away again!"
"The World Government has almost completely lost face in front of this bunch of lunatics!"
"Hoo..." Sengoku forcibly suppressed his anger and quickly made a decision.
"Since they've already run away, let's leave them alone for now!"
"The fog in this sea area is too thick; pursuing them would be a waste of time."
"I will immediately arrange for naval commanders to conduct a tight interception at the Sabaody Archipelago, their only route to the New World!"
"We absolutely cannot let them cross the Red Line!"
"Bear!" Sengoku's voice became extremely stern.
"Go check on Moria's condition right now! Don't let him die under any circumstances!"
"We absolutely cannot allow the news of a Shichibukai's defeat to leak out!"
"This will cause huge disturbances at sea!"
Despite the marshal's roar, Big Bear's expression remained completely unchanged; he simply replied with two words:
"clear."
"Kachcha".
As the Den Den Mushi was disconnected, the dense, hot fog that had enveloped the area for several kilometers gradually dissipated under the sea breeze.
Sunlight once again bathed this ravaged land.
The bear stood silently atop the high ruins, gazing at the distant horizon.
Although there was nothing left there, he could still seem to see their resolute figures gradually disappearing at the horizon.
a long time.
Big Bear put away the Den Den Mushi and turned around.
He walked with steady, heavy steps, stepping over the rubble and debris scattered on the ground, toward the ruins that had been crushed by Oz.
There, the dying Moonlight Moria awaits his rescue.
