Uchiha Puppet Master, Starting from One Piece.

As the lightning instantly took shape, a dense network of electricity wove together to intercept all the projectiles in mid-air.

Explosions rang out one after another, the flames illuminated his indifferent profile, and the flying shrapnel was scorched into molten iron by the electric current before it even hit the ground.

"Lightning?"

A naval commodore roared as he charged forward, his large sword, imbued with Armament Haki, slashing towards Bai Yu's head.

Chakra erupted beneath Bai Yu's feet, and he dodged to the side like a ghost. The katana at his waist was drawn in the same motion, flames swirling around the blade, and the crimson light illuminated half the sky.

He swung his sword horizontally with a backhand motion, and the scorching shockwave sent the major general flying several feet away. The flames on the blade even made the opponent's armor sizzle.

"too slow."

"Lightning and fire? What kind of Devil Fruit user are you?"

Seeing Uchiha Hakuba's endless stream of special abilities, the brigadier was somewhat on the defensive.

At the same time, Matsumoto Rangiku's figure had already transformed into a swift gust of wind.

She lightly touched the ground with her toes and leaped into the air, her long sword flashing with several bright blade flowers. The vortex of Wind Release: Vacuum Blade attached to the blade, and each slash brought with it a shrill sound of air being torn apart.

Several naval soldiers were unable to dodge in time and had their throats slit by the cyclone, their blood splattering onto the deck.

She spun and landed, then unleashed a powerful gust of wind in her hand, sending the surrounding navy flying and the crisp sound of bones shattering clearly audible.

"Bai Yu, leave the right side to me!"

Nico Robin stood at the edge of the battlefield, arms crossed, and instantly activated the Flower-Flower Fruit's power: Crimson and Purple. Countless arms appeared from behind the Marine soldiers, some choking their throats, some twisting their wrists, and some slamming them hard into the ground.

Her expression was calm, no longer as cautious as before.

"Your justice is still being abused where it shouldn't be used."

As she spoke, she exerted force again, and dozens of arms tightened simultaneously, twisting the bodies of the naval officers into bizarre arcs, causing them to writhe on the ground in pain.

To be fair, Nico Robin's abilities are quite formidable in the world.

As for Connor, with his short legs, he moved freely through the hail of bullets.

The bullets fired by the navy couldn't even touch her. She tilted her head, looking at the soldiers scrambling around in front of her, her little face full of innocence: "Let's play dodgeball together!"

As Connor spoke, he suddenly flashed away.

Bao'er, the CP member, looked at the one-sided battle before her, her face ashen.

She gritted her teeth and drew the poisoned dagger from her waist, her figure transforming into a blur as she rushed towards Bai Yu, the cold light on the dagger piercing straight for Uchiha Bai Yu's back.

Uchiha Shiroha dodged instantly, and in the instant he turned around, Bao'er noticed Uchiha Shiroha's peculiar eyes.

Then Bao'er's body suddenly stiffened, the Sharingan pattern was reflected in her pupils, and her face showed an expression of extreme fear.

She seemed to see herself being torn apart by countless arms and burned by flames. The dagger in her hand clattered to the ground, and she collapsed to the ground, covered in cold sweat, her eyes unfocused as if she had lost her soul.

Uchiha Hakuba looked down at her, the crimson tomoe in his eyes slowly turning.

Then he lifted his foot and gently stepped on Bao'er's wrist, his voice as cold as ice: "Don't rush, this is just the beginning."

Then, Uchiha Hakuba suddenly increased the force of his foot on Bao'er's wrist, the cracking sound of bones unable to bear the weight mixed with the woman's suppressed cry of pain.

"Robin is my partner, and anyone who tries to hurt him will pay the price, no matter who they are or what their stance is."

Uchiha Shiraha narrowed his crimson Sharingan slightly as he swept his gaze over the naval officers who were still putting up a stubborn resistance, a cold smile curving his lips.

"Call me a traitor to justice, or whatever else you want, I admit it, because to you, what we did is meaningless."

Before he could finish speaking, the naval commodore whose armor had been scorched by the flames earlier charged forward again, enveloped in a strong aura of Armament Haki.

Chapter 50 Prepare the Bounty

The brigadier's sword was covered in a dark, domineering aura, and the blade made a dull thud as it sliced ​​through the air.

Chakra suddenly exploded beneath Bai Yu's feet, and he rose into the air like a purple lightning bolt.

The extreme speed of the Lightning Release: Body Flicker Technique left him with only a faint afterimage. The brigadier general's longsword missed its mark, and the immense force sent him staggering forward two steps.

Before he could regain his footing, Bai Yu's voice rang out above him.

Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!

A torrent of flames poured out of Bai Yu's mouth like a volcanic eruption, the red fire waves covering the sky and instantly engulfing the general.

The intense heat baked the ground, emitting a nauseating odor.

The brigadier's piercing scream lasted only a moment before being completely engulfed by the roar of flames. When the fire subsided, he was lying on the ground.

The Fire Release technique finally paid off.

However, the masters in the world of One Piece are indeed resilient, and with the help of Armament Haki, they withstood the power of the flames.

On the other side, Matsumoto Rangiku's sword light grew even more ferocious. She pushed Wind Release: Vacuum Wave to its limit, and dozens of condensed cyclones swept through the crowd like a torrential rain. The muskets in the hands of the naval soldiers were shredded into pieces, and their armor was cut open with deep wounds that exposed bone.

She spun and leaped into the air, her longsword drawing a perfect arc in the air. The combination of wind manipulation and swordsmanship made each of her slashes carry the power to tear through the air. A naval lieutenant who tried to sneak up on her didn't even see her move before his neck was severed, and blood splattered on her scabbard, spreading a bewitching red.

"The miscellaneous fish have been cleared away!"

Rangiku flicked the blood off her sword, pointing the tip at the pale-faced rear admiral: "Shiraha, what does this guy have to say?"

"Not urgent."

Bai Yu's voice drifted over lightly. He didn't look at the major general who had long lost his will to fight, but instead focused his gaze on Bao'er, who was slumped on the ground. The tomoe of his Sharingan spun rapidly.

"I need to ask this CP intelligence agent what else we should know."

Bao'er trembled all over, her eyes unfocused, the illusion created by her Sharingan still eroding her nerves.

She seemed to see herself again, burned by flames and torn apart by her own arms, and a hoarse sound came from her throat.

Just then, the naval rear admiral suddenly unleashed an astonishing aura.

He pulled out a smoke grenade and slammed it to the ground, instantly filling the air with grayish-white smoke: "Retreat! Retreat now!"

He roared at the top of his lungs and turned to run towards the warships docked at the pier.

"Robin, don't let him get away."

"it is good!"

Upon hearing Uchiha's words, Nico Robin's voice remained calm and composed, her hands crossed in front of her chest.

"A Hundred Flowers in Full Bloom - Giant Tree Technique"

Countless arms burst forth from the smoke, intertwining and instantly transforming into the shape of a towering tree, its thick trunk and branches completely blocking the exit of the entire dock.

The rear admiral had only taken two steps when several arms tightly bound his ankles. He struggled desperately, but the arms suddenly pulled him to the ground. Then, more arms rushed in and bound his limbs tightly, rendering him unable to move.

As the smoke gradually dissipated, Uchiha Shiraha slowly walked up to the bound major general, looking down at him: "A guy who abuses justice and has an unstable will is not worthy of being a brigadier general."

Connor then cheered and jumped up.

Her short legs bounced across the messy ground, a cannonball still clutched in her hand, her face flushed with excitement: "Baiyu, Baiyu! Their cannonballs are so much fun! Much more interesting than dodgeball!"

Uchiha Shiraha looked down at Bao'er, who was completely powerless to resist, then looked up at the Marine Rear Admiral trapped by the giant tree, his face full of despair, and the trembling Marine soldiers. The crimson in his eyes grew even more intense.

Uchiha Shiraha slowly raised his foot, but did not step down. Instead, he bent down and gently stroked Bao'er's cheek with his fingertips.

"Alright, you can choose how you want to die."

Upon hearing this, Bao'er's body trembled violently. The fear of the illusion and the excruciating physical pain caused her psychological defenses to completely collapse.

She opened her mouth, tears mixed with cold sweat sliding down her cheeks, and finally managed to utter a few words, broken and intermittent: "Let me go!"

Before the words were finished, a muffled cannon shot suddenly came from the distant sea.

Immediately afterwards, a naval flag slowly appeared where the sea met the sky.

Before the first cannon shot had even faded, a second boom followed, accompanied by a deafening tremor that ripped through eardrums, exploding across the air above the dock.

Where the sea meets the sky, the striking naval flag of justice becomes increasingly clear, followed closely by more than a dozen dark warships, their cannons slowly rising, the cold metallic gleaming menacingly in the sunlight.

On the deck, the figures of naval soldiers were densely packed, and one could even vaguely see the outline of the general's cloak fluttering.

"It's reinforcements from the branch!"

The naval admiral, bound to the ground by the giant arm, grasped at a straw. His pale face instantly turned bright red, and he struggled to twist his body.

"So many troops, very well, no one can save you today."

The naval soldiers kneeling on the ground raised their heads one after another. Some even struggled to stand up, but were swept by a sharp gust of wind from Matsumoto Rangiku's sword. The blade grazed the ground and sparks flew, scaring them into hurriedly crawling back to the ground, not daring to even breathe.

The Navy is at most an accomplice of the World Government; for Uchiha Shiraha and his group, they have already killed enough.

Ranju frowned, and the Snow Breeze in her hand twirled slightly, emitting a faint buzzing sound: "Baiyu, the visitor is not friendly. It seems they came prepared."

Nico Robin looked up at the fleet in the distance, her arms crossed over her chest: "There are quite a few warships, and they are all of the highest standard. They must have received a message and came here specifically to surround us. We should escape now. If too many naval casualties occur, the civilians will suffer too much."

"Wow! So many ships! Baiyu, should we run away?"

Uchiha Hakuba's Sharingan gazed at the approaching fleet. He raised his hand, palm up, and lightning chakra gathered wildly in his palm. Blue lightning bolts surged like dragons, crackling and popping, the blinding light almost burning one's eyes.

Lightning Release: Azure Dragon

The moment the low shout fell, the originally clear clouds in the sky suddenly churned, and blue lightning, like a giant dragon, tore through the clouds and struck down fiercely towards the warship at the forefront with earth-shattering power!

"Boom—!"

A deafening roar echoed through the heavens and the earth. Flames shot into the sky from the deck of the warship, thick smoke billowed, and the hull shook violently, creaking under the strain.

Chapter 51 Escape

"It seems that it's impossible to sail the seas in an ordinary way anymore; we'll soon have a bounty on our heads."

While the Marines were preoccupied with their own problems, Uchiha Hakuba still felt the lingering sensation of Lightning Release chakra on his fingertips.

He glanced at Bao'er, who was lying on the ground, barely breathing, and his crimson Sharingan suddenly contracted, a cold killing intent flashing in his eyes.

Without the slightest hesitation, he raised his foot and stomped on Bao'er's neck. The crisp sound of bones breaking, accompanied by a faint groan, completely ended the life of this CP intelligence agent.

"Let's go!"

Shiraha's voice, carried by the howling sea breeze, reached Rangiku, Robin, and Connor's ears.

The moment he turned around, chakra exploded beneath his feet, and the extreme speed of his lightning release transformed him into a pale blue streak of light, hurtling straight toward the jet-black speedboat at the edge of the dock.

He also needs to be responsible for clearing the way ahead.
