One Piece: Rayquaza of the Beasts Pirates

With a loud shout, three intertwined beams of cold light suddenly attacked the Oni Spider at a tricky angle.

clang!clang!clang!

Onigumo's hair tuft danced with astonishing agility, managing to deflect the three sharp blades Zoro slashed at him.

A tremendous force came from the blade, causing Zoro's arm to sink.

"You foolish brat! Prepare to die!"

Onigumo laughed wildly, raising his free two longswords: "Dual Sword Style: Strangulation!"

Zoro's pupils contracted, and he tried to draw his sword and retreat, but he felt as if the three swords were being held tightly by iron pincers, making it impossible for him to break free for the time being!

Just as the twin swords, imbued with Armament Haki, were about to slash down in a cross pattern—

At the critical moment.

"SHOOT the first meat!"

A black foot whistled through the air as it slammed into the unsuspecting neck of the Oni Spider.

Onigumo frowned suddenly, weighing the pros and cons in a flash. His body swung back strangely like a willow branch in the wind, narrowly avoiding Sanji's sure-fire kick!

Fortunately, his evasive maneuver caused the grip on Zoro's hair to loosen slightly.

"Drink!"

Zoro roared and exerted his strength, suddenly pulling back his three swords, successfully escaping and taking several steps back.

He distanced himself from Onigumo, sweat beading on his forehead, but his eyes burned even brighter.

"Hey, moss-head! Are you alright?" Sanji landed lightly, standing in front of him, his eyes fixed on the enemy.

"Don't worry, you won't die."

Zoro spat and took a deep breath. "We can't be careless when fighting this guy. His hair, strength, and agility are all extraordinary."

"Yeah, I see." Sanji lit a cigarette, his eyes more serious than ever before.

This was the first time they had truly faced a formidable enemy who would put them to the test of life and death.

Onigumo's sinister grin remained undiminished, and the eight long swords reflected a cold gleam.

"Not bad... Well then, let's begin the second round."

His voice was as cold as a bone-chilling wind: "Don't... die too quickly."

On the other side of the battlefield.

"fire punch!"

Ace roared, his massive fiery fist slamming towards Doberman, only to be swiftly cleaved apart by the latter's imposing longsword, sending sparks flying.

"Musketeers!"

Ace was not discouraged. Knowing that his physical skills were temporarily inferior to his opponent's, he decisively adopted a hit-and-run strategy.

He pointed his index and middle fingers at his opponent like guns, and countless fiery bullets rained down on Doberman.

“A boring trick,” Doberman scoffed.

With the aid of Observation Haki, his figure moved like a ghost, and when he could not avoid it, he used the blade of his sword to parry precisely.

Those fire bullets couldn't hurt him at all.

While Ace was struggling, Robin also launched her own offensive.

"Second round of blooming - pinch!"

With Robin's sharp cry, countless flower petals appeared on Storoberry's shoulders, forming two arms that suddenly grabbed his neck and squeezed hard!

The latter remained completely still, without even frowning.

"Are you giving me a massage, you devil's child?"

Storobe remained expressionless, his tone carrying an undisguised sarcasm.

With that kind of force, trying to strangle him who has Armament Haki defense is just wishful thinking.

Robin instantly realized that the joint locks that were usually ineffective against ordinary enemies were completely useless against a skilled admiral from the Marine Headquarters.

She made a decisive change in her fighting style.

"Ten-Wheel Blossoms - Shackles!"

In an instant, even more petal-shaped arms grew wildly at the key joints all over Strawberry's body.

His arms, shoulders, waist, and legs—ten arms in total—were like tenacious vines, binding him firmly to the spot.

Although these arms still cannot penetrate Armament Haki's defenses to cause substantial damage, they can temporarily restrict his freedom of movement.

Knowing he couldn't defeat the vice admiral, Robin simply gave up attacking.

Their only goal was to stop and delay Storobelli's fight.

They waited for a turning point in the battle.

Chapter 157 Sakazuki, defeated!

"A mere trick, yet you dare to show off your amateur skills before an expert?"

Strawberry, whose entire body was bound by arms, snorted coldly, showing no sign of panic on his face.

Although these arms were troublesome, he believed that he could break free with just a little effort.

He took a deep breath, his muscles tensed abruptly, and a surge of dark Armament Haki enveloped his entire body, preparing to break free—

However, at that very moment, Robin across from him smiled knowingly.

The time she had been waiting for had arrived.

Crack!

A blinding bolt of lightning flashed without warning, and Enel's elemental form appeared behind Strawberry like a ghost.

what?

Strawberry's Observation Haki only reacted after Enel fully revealed himself, but it was too late!

A slender hand had already gently placed itself on his back.

"One hundred million volts of discharge!"

Enel's indifferent voice was like the whisper of death.

Within his palm, raging lightning gathered wildly, transforming into a torrent of thunder that crashed into Strawberry's body without reservation!

"Ughh ...

A piercing scream instantly tore the battlefield apart!

Stolberg convulsed violently, and thick, visible electric currents surged and exploded wildly around him.

Extreme heat and numbness swept over every nerve, and wisps of burnt smoke rose from all over his body.

Even the arm that Robin created dissipated in the lightning.

"Damn it...!"

Strawberry's eyes were bloodshot, and he endured the excruciating pain. Relying on the indomitable will honed by years of battles, he suddenly exerted force with his feet!

"shave!"

With a flash, he narrowly escaped Enel's grasp and appeared more than ten meters away.

He then plunged his twin swords into the ice, barely managing to support his swaying body.

"Ho...ho..."

Stolberg was panting heavily, his body billowing black smoke, his once neat military uniform now charred black.

He raised his head, his eyes filled with a mixture of overwhelming anger and barely concealed fear, staring intently at the strange man who had suddenly appeared.

If he hadn't covered his entire body with Armament Haki beforehand, he probably would have collapsed by now.

Storoberry demanded in a hoarse voice, "Who are you?!"

He cursed the CP agent in charge of intelligence a thousand times in his mind.

They boast about their intelligence capabilities every day, yet they failed to discover that such a powerful enemy was hidden within the opposing camp. This is utter dereliction of duty!

Enel did not answer immediately.

He leisurely looked the disheveled Storobelli up and down, and nodded slightly.

This so-called Armament Haki does indeed have its unique aspects.

Back when we were on Sky Island, no one could withstand his attack without falling.

but……

This long-headed guy in front of me is still far inferior to Kane.

The road to turning ourselves into masters is still very long.

Thinking of this, Enel shook his head with some regret.

Suppressing his distracting thoughts for the moment, he turned his haughty gaze back to Storobelli, as if a god were looking down on an ant.

"Since you have asked so sincerely, then I, the God, will mercifully tell you."

Enel slowly opened his arms, his body crackling with lightning, and his voice carried undeniable majesty: "My name is Enel!"

He grinned, a menacing smile spreading across his face: "Congratulations! You will be the first enemy I kill in Qinghai!"

"Hmph! How arrogant!"

Strawberry forced himself to stand up straight, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said defiantly, "He's just an arrogant fool who relies on his Devil Fruit power!"

He had seen plenty of guys like this who thought they could do whatever they wanted just because they had a Devil Fruit.

"That was just a momentary lapse in judgment. Next... I'll make you regret ever being born!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly drew his twin swords, the ice beneath his feet shattered, and he charged toward Enel.

Enel narrowed his eyes, and the golden staff in his hand was instantly enveloped and melted by the powerful lightning, and then instantly reshaped into a sharp trident.
