Chapter 16 The Pirates' Counterattack
Chapter 16 The Pirates' Counterattack
Lina gripped the knife hilt tighter, her competitive spirit ignited.
Although she was previously just a swordsman with a sliver of health remaining, she instinctively paid attention to all information related to swordsmen.
Zoro is the most famous bounty hunter in the East Blue.
How could I not know that he was a unique three-sword style swordsman?
Her gaze fell on Kasley, the captain of the Kasley Pirates, who had a bounty of 1300 million Berries, because now, apart from Blood Butcher, his bounty was the highest.
Ajin: "Then the red fox is mine."
Good guy!
They all picked the ones with the highest bounties, and in the end, only Matthew, the captain of the Hurricane Pirates with a bounty of 1180 million Berries, and a few guys with bounties of one million Berries were left.
Aini shrugged: "Okay, leave the rest to me."
Blood Butcher, Casley, Red Fox, Matthew... they exchanged glances, their eyes filled with rage. These guys were treating them like merchandise, picking and choosing among them.
For them, this was absolutely the greatest humiliation.
"You're asking for death..." Blood Butcher, with the most violent temper, was the first to lose his temper.
His gaze was fixed intently on Zoro; if looks could kill, he would have already torn Zoro to pieces by now.
Aini turned to Lina and Zoro: "Shall we have a competition?"
As he spoke, his hand was already on the hilt of the knife, his legs were slightly bent, and his body was leaning forward, assuming an attacking stance.
Lina smiled and then struck the same pose.
Zoro didn't say anything, but his face also showed a hint of excitement, and he ended up striking the same pose.
Three, three swordsmen, in the same pose.
No need for many words, perhaps this is the unique romance of a swordsman.
Ajin: "..." Suddenly, he felt isolated by his comrades.
Aini: "One-Sword Style - Iai - Flame Demon Slash!"
Lina: "One-Sword Style - Iaijutsu!"
Zoro: "One-Sword Style - Iai - Hymn!"
"brush..."
The three disappeared simultaneously, reappearing behind their respective targets. They all slowly sheathed their swords.
"Pfft..."
Blood Butcher, Casley, and Matthew all had a wound on their chests, from which blood gushed out.
"Tsk tsk..."
Zoro couldn't help but chuckle, then turned to look at Aini and Rena, the two swordsmen. They were definitely the strongest he had encountered since he set sail.
He was very excited.
I'm really looking forward to having a proper match with these two.
Blood Butcher and Matthew slowly collapsed. Only Kasley remained standing... not because he was the strongest.
Lina was the weakest of the three, so the power of her attacks was greatly reduced.
Lina's expression changed slightly.
She made up her mind then and there that she must increase her strength. Only in this way could she close the gap with male swordsmen.
"shock!"
Seeing the three people around her all fall victim to the attack, Red Fox's expression changed drastically. Her mind also began to race...
With his extensive combat experience, Ah Jin wouldn't miss such an opportunity. With a powerful thrust of his legs, he shot out like a cannonball.
"Shield Smash!"
This attack was so powerful that even an iron wall couldn't withstand it; it was definitely Akin's most destructive move.
"not good!"
Red Fox's expression changed drastically when she noticed Ah Jin's movements. Ah Jin had already rushed in front of her.
Damn!
She actually made the basic mistake of getting distracted during the battle.
She was also the only woman among these pirates. Naturally, she was slightly weaker than the men in terms of strength. Therefore, her fighting style always involved maintaining complete distance and relying on her techniques to win.
But it was too late. Left with no other choice, he could only raise his knife to block Ah Jin's attack.
"clang!"
Akin's move can even shatter a thick shield.
Not to mention the thin knife in the red fox's hand?
Unless one possesses the speed and a deadly aura, no one could possibly block his attack. Thus, the knife in her hand snapped in two. But Ah Jin's cane hammer did not stop; its momentum remained undiminished.
Amidst the red fox's terrified gaze, it struck her hard in the chest.
Under the immense force, Red Fox felt as if her chest was about to burst, the pain causing her to break out in a cold sweat. At the same time, she was also blasted away.
By sheer coincidence, she fell right at Aini's feet.
Aini looked down and, wow... one side had gotten a whole size bigger.
He couldn't help but think to himself, "That guy, Ah Jin, really doesn't know how to be gentle with women at all!"
But complaints aside...
His leg was anything but slow; it suddenly kicked out and struck her face.
Red Fox was kicked unconscious.
“tui...”
At this moment, Blood Butcher struggled to his feet. He then spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva to the side.
Then, together with Casley, they slowly turned around.
He confronted Ani, Lina, and Zoro, and then glanced at Matthew, who was lying on the ground and had not yet gotten up.
His brows furrowed involuntarily.
These three guys were already incredibly strong, but if they lost this helper, it would be two against three, and they would truly have no chance of survival.
As for the other pirates, they exchanged glances.
His eyes were filled with terror.
"When did such a formidable character emerge in the East China Sea navy?"
One by one, they instinctively retreated, then frantically rushed towards the pirate ship. Only by boarding the pirate ship was there a sliver of hope for escape.
Blood Butcher was an extremely tall man, over three meters tall. He was carrying a giant axe... and then you saw him, locking onto Zoro.
"brush..."
The giant axe in his hand was thrown out, its target Zoro.
Aini, Lina, and Zoro all had their pupils shrink involuntarily. Because they could use such a massive iron axe as a throwing weapon.
Its power is absolutely terrifying.
Zoro wisely chose to dodge, and in a flash moved to a spot three or four meters to his left.
Unexpectedly, the giant axe in Blood Butcher's hand had a long iron chain attached to its handle. After missing his first strike, he suddenly exerted force.
He swung the giant axe into the air, then flicked it. The axe immediately hurtled towards Zoro at an unpredictable angle once more.
Aini and Lina exchanged a glance, thinking to themselves, "As expected, the guy with the 1800 million Berry bounty won't be taken down so easily."
However, neither of them offered any assistance, because Zoro was Zoro's opponent.
At the same time, Casley also made a move.
This guy wore iron gauntlets on his hands, knee pads on his legs, and even his shoes were made of iron.
Clearly, this guy is a master of physical combat.
With a powerful leap, he soared high into the air and delivered a powerful punch to Lina from mid-air.
Lina reacted quickly, gripping the knife with both hands and swinging it directly.
