Chapter 546 This battle is inevitable
Latest URL: Today.
Maud's reputation is at its peak.
After the Mercury Island celebration event ended, there was no other pirate in the world that could compare to Maud.
In the new world, countless pirates are attracted by Maud's fame, status, and power.
The idea of wanting to follow Maud emerged naturally.
The permanent pointer that has been stagnant for a long time starts to turn again.
They set sail to the sea, crossed many obstacles, crossed the last raging waves, and came to the country of Wano——
However.
What awaits them is a screening that can directly see through their hearts.
Even so, in order to obtain the qualification to follow Maud, they are willing to give it a try.
In their view, such screening is more like a trial.
As long as they can pass the test, they will become the world's strongest pirate group and a member of the world's strongest man.
some time ago.
The woman in charge of the trial is actually very fast in terms of efficiency.
Therefore, the pirates who come here do not need to gather at the dock at all.
Over time -
The woman in charge of the trial began taking regular breaks.
Then more and more pirates came.
This has led to more and more pirates piling up on the pier.
When night falls, the Maud Pirates will leave the pier, and their group of pirates who have not yet started to participate in the trial will be driven to a floating island.
The Maud Pirates will provide them with food.
And what they have to do is to honestly spend the night on the floating island, and then continue to line up for the trial tomorrow.
Day after day like this...
The number of pirates queuing up for trials keeps increasing,
The efficiency of the trial has not changed.
So much so that Fujitora, who had come from a long distance, had just set foot in Wano, and he sensed the hundreds of pirates gathered on the pier with his sight.
Roughly counted, there are at least 4,000 people.
At first, Fujitora thought it was the pirates of the New World who joined forces to attack Wano.
But when he arrived at the scene, he found that the truth was completely different from what he expected.
The sudden arrival of Fujitora was like a depth bomb dropped on the hearts of many pirates.
"Why does the Admiral dare to come here?!"
"Since the generals have been dispatched, it means that the navy's fleet is also here!!!"
"Damn it, the navy came at such an untimely time, it was almost Lao Tzu's turn..."
"You idiots don't usually watch the news? Fujitora has been fired and is no longer an admiral!!!"
"What?! There is such a thing?!"
"This is real?!"
"It is absolutely true, Fujitora has indeed been fired."
"So...he came alone?"
"It should be, I'm really not afraid of death!!!"
"Hey, if we kill Fujitora here, wouldn't it be the best 'trial' result?"
On the pier, many pirates made a messy discussion.
Because of the difference in the degree of information acceptance, some pirates already knew that Fujitora was fired by the Navy headquarters, while some pirates did not know about it.
As a result, the moment they saw Fujitora, their judgments were different.
The pirates, who knew that Fujitora was fired from the Navy headquarters, realized that Fujitora came alone and that there was no navy fleet behind him.
And those pirates who don't know, the moment they see Fujitora, will naturally think that there is a fleet behind Fujitora.
"..."
Fujitora leaned on a cane, and his blind eyes slowly swept towards the pirates on the pier.
Top-notch seeing, hearing, and taking all the hostility and killing intent of these pirates to the bottom of my heart.
But he didn't put these pirates in his 'eyes', and turned his attention to the people of the Maud pirates who were also on the scene.
Shiliu of Rain.
Magic Hawkins.
Undertaker Arthur.
Strange monk Urky.
and a woman he didn't know.
"Well……"
Fujitora let out a low moan.
Although he arrived at the scene, he still didn't understand what was going on.
But at least one thing can be determined.
The nearly 5,000 pirates gathered on the pier did not come to trouble the Maud pirates.
on the contrary--
From the standpoint of this group of pirates, it is no different from queuing.
"What is it..."
While Fujitora was wondering to himself, he could clearly feel that the hostility from the pirates was getting stronger.
But he didn't care.
I came here just to meet Maud.
Other than that, nothing else.
Violet rubbed his eyes lightly and blamed himself: "It's my dereliction of duty that I didn't notice Fujitora coming."
"Hey, it's not your fault, Miss Violet."
The strange monk Wuerji maintained a constant smile all the year round, and said seriously: "We all know that when you are 'screening', you can't set up a monitoring network, so you don't have to blame yourself for it."
Violet smiled reluctantly at Urki.
Although it wasn't her fault, she felt that she had failed Maud's expectations after all.
"Former Admiral Fujitora is a rare visitor."
Hawkins sat on a stool made of straw, and in front of him were the divination cards held in mid-air by the straw.
He squinted at Fujitora in the distance, and while speaking, he took out one of the many divination cards hanging in the air.
Then he turned over to look, and there was a hint of disappointment in his eyes that was fleeting.
"It's hard to say whether it's a guest or not..."
Shiliu removed the cigar that had just been lit in his mouth.
It was his reaction to starting to take something seriously.
click-
Remove the cigar and press the handle slightly with your thumb.
A cold and brutal killing intent radiated from the scabbard.
No matter what Fujitora's intention was, it was clearly the murderous intent of the bloodthirsty and combative warden.
But it is more appropriate to say that it is actually fighting intent.
He wants to fight Fujitora.
Arthur, who was wearing a mortician's mask, glanced at Shiliu, who had no intention of concealing his murderous intentions.
Although he hasn't mastered the sight, hearing, and feeling, judging from Fujitora's posture, it doesn't look like he's asking for trouble.
so.
Even if you can't be called a guest, you don't need to take the initiative to provoke disputes.
There is a saying that more is worse than less.
Arthur thought so, but after seeing Shiliu's battle, he kept silent rationally.
In the entire team, he didn't have much power to speak, and he wasn't sure to convince Shiliu not to mess around.
"Hawkins, what is the result of the divination?"
He could only look at Hawkins, and put the last glimmer of hope of persuasion on the god stick.
Hawkins was silent for a while after hearing the words, and backhanded the divination card he had drawn.
Then, he slowly answered Arthur's question.
Only two short words - trouble.
Arthur frowned slightly.
Even Hawkins said so, so this battle seems to be inescapable.
It's just that Arthur didn't notice the evil intent deep in Hawkins' eyes.
On top of the divination results, the magician was obviously lying.
"Hey, fortunately, I brought a broken ring today..."
Urgi held up the huge hexagonal pencil column with one hand, looking eager to try.
"Being able to play against the general is a valuable experience!"
He couldn't hold back his boiling fighting intent and strode towards Fujitora.
Shiliu was one step ahead of him.
"You can't, I'll come."
He slandered Urki very rudely.
Urki was not annoyed, and always had a smile on his face.
Shiliu and Urgi made moves, and obviously couldn't wait to fight Fujitora.
Seeing this, Hawkins also got up slowly, weaved a straw knife out of straw, and held it in his hand.
He also has the idea of gaining experience by playing against generals.
It may be to satisfy this idea that Hawkins concealed the real divination results.
"Hey, you..."
Arthur subconsciously wanted to stop his companions, but the words stopped quickly.
His strength is much weaker than Shiliu, Hawkins, and Urki, so how can he be qualified to stop them.
"never mind."
He ditched the unrealistic idea, but he didn't intend to get involved.
Not because of fear of fighting with a monster like the general.
Rather, he had to stay put and shoulder the responsibility of protecting Violet.
This is also one of the rules set by Maud.
The duty of combat members, in addition to special attack, is to protect non-combat members.
Protecting non-combat members is a higher priority than frontal special attack operations.
Although there were still Hawkins' Straw Crackers around, Arthur felt more at ease by staying by Violet's side.
This is also because-
Violet's "talent value" is extremely valued by Maud, and there must be no surprises.
Arthur and Violet stay where they are, while Shiliu, Urky, and Hawkins prepare to face Fujitora.
However, the pirates waiting to be screened moved faster.
They want to show their worth through this battle, and they actively flock to Fujitora.
They thought about the problem from the perspective of the Mord Pirates, and of course they thought that Fujitora was trying to trouble the Mord Pirates.
Therefore, in order to prove their worth, they took the initiative to take on the task of confronting Fujitora.
Regardless of strength, the New World Pirates who can come here are still very reckless in terms of behavior.
Fujitora was still thinking about the motive and reason why the pirates gathered here, but the pirates attacked him directly.
"The old man has no intention of fighting here, but..."
Fujitora pulled out the staff sword, and circles of purple ripples were unsheathed along with the blade.
"Your hostility is too 'conspicuous'."
The self-talk disappeared into the wind.
Gravity Knife, Tiger!
The purple ripples that were unsheathed with the knife suddenly turned into horizontal gravity and swept away toward the pirates.
The terrifying force that was as heavy as a thousand pounds instantly crushed the nearly 1,000 pirates who rushed to the front to the ground.
Click, click—
On the hard surface, there were cracks visible to the naked eye.
Then the huge wind pressure generated by the gravity knife tiger mercilessly lifted the pirates behind.
"Wow……!!!"
Exclamations and screams came one after another, echoing over the pier.
Just a face room.
The nearly 5,000 pirates in the arena were all lying on the ground.
The power of the general is undoubtedly revealed at this moment.
However--
After a second or two.
The group of pirates who were crushed or blown away by the gravitational blade tiger all stood up one after another, but only a small group of pirates never got up and should have lost consciousness.
After all, they are pirates of the New World, and they are armed per capita.
Even if there is no effective means of resisting horizontal gravity, it can reduce the damage through the defense of the armed color, so that it will not be taken for a second.
Fujitora's eyes opened slightly, and he swept across the audience with a sense of sight, grasping the situation in an instant.
He realized that this group of pirates were not trash fish, and it was estimated that it would take a lot of effort to get rid of them.
But the most troublesome trouble is...
Fujitora tilted his head slightly, revealing some white eyes, facing Shiliu, Urky, and Hawkins who came to the arena.
His intention is clear, even if he wastes some time and energy on this group of pirates, it is nothing.
The only thing that can't be bad with the people of the Maud Pirates.
"Old man..."
In line with the attitude of turning big things into small things and turning small things into nothing, Fujitora opened his mouth and wanted to understand his intentions.
However, Shiliu didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and slashed at him with a bloody leap.
Fujitora raised his sword to block the bloody slash, and then smashed it with gravity.
The leaping slash that contained Shiliu's powerful blow was instantly destroyed by gravity into a spot of light in the sky.
"It seems... this battle is inevitable."
From Shiryu's slash, Fujitora felt killing intent, but more of a fighting intent.
Urky and Hawkins, who came with Shiliu, also gave him a similar feeling, and it was a fighting spirit that he could not refuse.
Thinking about it, he didn't care about his intentions, and regarded him as a training target.
The clay figurine also has three points of anger.
Fujitora didn't intend to hold back either.
If you want to fight, come on.
In an instant, Fujitora was on fire.
The dark purple ripples floated on his body like waves, exuding an amazing aura.
He raised the knife over his head.
The floating purple energy flows along the arm to the staff and knife.
"Hell Brigade."
The purple energy gathered in one place suddenly burst out to the maximum extent.
A mighty gravitational field descended from the sky and enveloped everyone present.
This sudden gravitational field made the group of pirates who had just stood up sank and were bent over.
Their faces were slightly pale, struggling to resist the gravitational suppression from Fujitora.
And Shiliu, Urky, and Hawkins were also substantively affected.
This large-scale gravity field is equivalent to a field that can slow down their attack.
At the same time, it also made the scarecrow cookie warrior dispatched by Hawkins lose their combat effectiveness.
On hardness.
Scarecrow Cookie Warrior is top-notch.
But in front of Fujitora's gravity field, he seemed vulnerable, crushed to the ground and unable to move.
From this, it can also be seen that Fujitora is really moving.
After restraining Shiryu and the others with the Hell Brigade, Fujitora stepped forward with the sword.
He took the initiative to attack.
The two sides fought together.
Half an hour passed-
When Aokiji and Jaya came to Wano, they only saw pirates lying on the ground.
In addition to Fujitora, the only people who could stand still were Shiliu, and Arthur and Violet who did not participate in the battle.
"Ah la la, why do you have the feeling that the visitor is not good?"
Aokiji looked at Fujitora in the battle circle suspiciously.
He didn't think Fujitora was someone who would do such a thing.
Jaya didn't speak, just opened her eyes slightly, revealing a ray of amber luster.
Judging from the situation at the scene, she was a little angry.
at the same time--
The snake ship of the Nine Snake Pirates is about to arrive in the waters of Wano Kingdom.
Bailey was bored, or rather hungry.
So he lay on the side of the boat fishing.
Then he caught a giant blue sea fish.
"Bone, cut some sashimi for the nest."
Bailey greeted Brooke excitedly.
"Happy to serve."
Brooke came over and cut the fish in half with one sword.
Bailey was stunned when he saw this.
What kind of slice is this? ? ?
Brooke yo ho ho laughed: "I accidentally pushed too hard."
A black line hung down Bailey's forehead.
"Boom."
Suddenly, a wooden treasure chest fell out of the fish belly.
Brooke and Bailey looked at the treasure chest following the sound, tilted their heads slightly, and couldn't help but ponder.
The purple-blue pig reminds you: after watching it, ask for collection (), and it is more convenient to watch it later.
