93- Southern City

Southern City.

Kuina, Makino, and many of the soldiers of the Frauce Kingdom have arrived at the southern city.

As soon as they arrived, they were greeted with gunfire and several cannonballs.

Kuina jumped off the horse she was riding and began cutting cannonballs with her sword.

While Makino created a large amount of alcohol and built a wall in front of her and the soldiers to protect them from gunshots and cannonballs.

Fortunately, there is no wall around the city and they were able to enter and confront the enemies directly.

The soldiers know this city and its terrain, so the pirates could not hide or try to set up an ambush, and even if they tried to set up an ambush, they were discovered in advance, so it was very easy for the soldiers to fight the enemies in this city.

kuina and Makino help the soldiers, Kuina gets into direct combat with the enemies and starts cutting them, while Makino uses her ability to produce alcohol and control it by drowning enemies and suffocating them with large quantities of alcohol or controlling alcohol to produce arrows and spears and throw them at pirates.

At this moment, a man appeared on the roof of one of the buildings, looking at Makino with a smirk. The man raised his hand and directed it towards Makino, then his hand caught fire and released a large amount of flame towards Makino.

All the alcohol that Makino had fired before easily caught fire and the flames spread everywhere as he headed toward Makino.

Makino's face didn't look scared, she just separated herself from the alcohol and kept out of the range of fires.

That person walked toward Makino with a smirk on his face, "You're a person made of alcohol, I'm the one who ate the Flame Paramecia considered the most terrifying enemy to you."

"With just a simple touch of my flame, you're dead." The fire surrounded this person but it didn't affect him at all, he started controlling all the fire around him and making it move towards Makino.

When Kuina saw this, she felt very anxious, as she remembered the situation in which Omaeda died at the hands of Ethan.

In contrast to Kuina, Makino was calm and did not feel afraid of this dangerous situation, as she produced a large amount of alcohol and formed it in the shape of a dome surrounding her.

The fire hit the dome and set it on fire, but it could not penetrate it and enter the interior, in other words, only the outer layer of the dome caught fire.

Makino separated the dome into two layers and sent the blazing outer layer toward that person.

This person dodges and turns away from the flaming alcohol, although he would not be affected by the fire but would definitely be injured by the alcohol.

Kuina sighed in relief when she saw that Makino had been able to handle this dangerous situation.

It was only natural that Makino could do this because Ethan made her learn various ways of dealing with people who could use fire in their fights. She can also reduce the percentage of alcohol in the liquid that she create so that it will not catch fire.

"Damn, I thought it would be easy to kill her." David thought while sulking. He was chosen to fight in this city because they thought he could kill her quickly. The information he collected for them is very incomplete.

While David was distracted by his thoughts, Kuina approached him very quickly and quietly and tried to cut him off, but he noticed her at the last moment and shot flames from all over his body and spread all around him.

Kuina couldn't get close to him because of the flame so she quickly retreated.

"Kuina, come and enter the dome." Makino made a hole in the alcohol dome just enough to let Kuina in.

"So, what are we going to do? Do you have a plan to defeat him easily?" Makino looked at Kuina while inquiring.

"I can't get close to him because of the fire, and I still haven't learned a way to cut the fire. So you have to defeat him." After Kuina finished saying this, she swung her sword toward Makino.

The sword cut Makino in half, shock was evident on Makino's face, not expecting Kuina to attack her.

A few drops of blood fell on the ground, while behind Makino a voice appeared, speaking to Kuina, "How did you find out where I am?"

Makino's severed body was repaired and she looked behind her and found a man, or we could say it was a lizard, wearing gloves and holding some handcuffs.

The Lizard Man put the handcuffs away and wiped the blood off his cheek and then drew the two swords hanging around his waist.

It's a person who ate a lizard lizard fruit: Chameleons.

For this reason he can hide himself with the surrounding environment.

He is the same person who has been spying on the plans of the girls and the queen in the western city.

In fact, he is responsible for the pirates who were in the western city, but he knew the SHD Pirates as soon as he saw the pirate flag and noticed that he would not be able to defeat them, so he hid himself and noticed everyone's fights and then sent the report on the girls' abilities to the captain of the Steel Fist pirates.

The handcuffs he was carrying were made of sea stone, he was planning to put them on Makino to make her lose the ability to fight but his plan failed because of Kuina.

"Looks like I found my opponent, you can fight the one who controls the flames." Kuina gently laughed and then walked toward the Lizard Man.

"Okay, but we'll talk about what you did to me later." Makino frowned, she didn't like what Kuina did even though she was unaffected by physical attacks, but she was terrified when Kuina cut her with a sword.
