Chapter 31

Bang!

Click, click

Abel had only brought two guns, and in just a short time, all the bullets were gone.

So, he casually threw away the gun and also tore off the lightweight bulletproof vest that had its defense value shattered from his body.

Goods of white quality were truly not durable!

"The kid's out of bullets, let's go, kill him!"

"Don't use guns, hack him with a knife! This kid slips around like an eel."

The pirates saw Abel's predicament and thought an opportunity had come, so they rushed towards him with ferocious expressions.

"Although this 'stage' is far from the grand spectacle I imagined, having you scum as an audience is numerically sufficient."

Abel said, incomprehensible to others, while he grasped the short knife hanging at his waist.

Asura Aurora Slash!

Abel's speed of drawing the knife seemed not fast, but the Aurora Slash that was formed shot into the enemies quickly, causing a dazzling and bloody scene!

Without charging up, this Aurora Slash flew only about ten meters before it dissipated.

Yet, it left a ground full of severed limbs!

The penetration attribute of Asura Aurora Slash allowed it to maintain its power during flight.

It wouldn't result in the power gradually being worn down because it had killed a dozen people in front.

"Swordmaster?!"

The scene just now caused quite a stir and attracted many people's attention, causing shock and awe!

Some of the pirates, who had some knowledge but not much, even exclaimed in surprise, treating Abel as a swordmaster.

In their impression, a flying slash could almost be considered one of the trademarks of a swordmaster.

Ordinary people couldn't perform such an attack.

So, the question was, a swordmaster around ten years old?

What a joke!

Then they saw that little devil casually swing his sword again.

Whoosh!

This time they saw even more clearly.

A crescent-shaped slash, about two meters long and shimmering with aurora, instantly separated from the blade, flew a distance of about ten meters, and cut through all the enemies blocking its path!

That's right, it was not an illusion, it was a real flying slash!

The members of the Skunk Pirate Crew, who were about to be beaten due to the sudden disappearance of their captain, completely collapsed at this point and started running away in all directions, screaming loudly.

Actually, even if Abel hadn't taken action, these pirates would have completely collapsed in a minute or two.

It could be said that the sudden display of the flying slash by Abel only sped up this process and incidentally boosted his own experience.

"Damn it, these wastes! They can't even hold on for such a short time."

"But never mind, at least the goal has been achieved."

"Enjoy the gift I prepared for you, Donquixote Family!"

Having escaped early from the secret tunnel, Captain Mephistopheles, currently hiding halfway up the hill, wore an expression of malice and triumph, as he viciously pressed the red button in his hand!

He was anticipating the whole manor and the trapped Donquixote family being blown sky-high!

"Hm? Why is there no reaction?"

"Explode, I command you to explode!"

Mephistopheles was panicking, his face dripping with cold sweat as he frantically pressed the button.

But the large amount of explosives purchased by their four pirate crews showed no sign of detonation.

"No wonder you were not found in the manor. You have already escaped here through the secret tunnel."

With the teasing voice that rose from behind him, Mephistopheles didn't hesitate to turn and draw his gun to fire.

Unfortunately, when Doflamingo's voice resounded, it meant he had already lost any chance of resistance.

"Why can't I move? What did you do to me?" Mephistopheles expressed fear. This feeling of losing control was terrible, exceedingly dreadful!

Upon careful inspection, one would find several transparent thin lines connected to Mephistopheles' body, with the other end held in Doflamingo's hand.

And as Doflamingo flicked his fingers, Mephistopheles, like a controlled puppet, stiffly turned around.

"What did I do to you? Shouldn't it be what you were planning to do to my family?"

"Donquixote Doflamingo?!!"

"No, you can't kill me, this is just a misunderstanding!"

"I can compensate for everything, yes, I am willing to join you, I am Skunk Mephistopheles with a bounty of 31 million Berries"

"Shut up!"

Doflamingo was very angry. Did this piece of trash dare to challenge him?

So he manipulated the other party to cut off his own tongue directly.

That finally brought some peace.

"Although I wanted to ask what your plans were, I am not interested now. Next, you will witness true despair, everything you were looking forward to, all your hopes, will be effortlessly crushed!"

"Be thankful, letting you witness all this and then die in despair and pain is the greatest mercy I can offer."

Under the hate-filled and terrified gaze of Mephistopheles, he followed Doflamingo like a puppet, step by step, heading towards the distant Flamingo ship.

At the same time, the three pirate ships that had been agreed upon earlier had also arrived at the designated position.

"Strange, according to the plan, that Mephistopheles should have detonated the explosives by now."

"I have a bad feeling. We've lost contact with Mephistopheles and nobody is answering the Den Den Mushi, he must be in trouble."

"What should we do then? Should we just retreat in shame after coming this far?"

"Forget him! Stick to the original plan and launch the attack. As long as we destroy their ship, even if we're stuck, we'll take down those bastards from the Donquixote family!"

"You're right, charge! Give them hell!"

...

In an instant, a barrage of cannonballs rained down on the Flamingo ship from three directions.

"Hehe, so many fools dare to attack us."

"Less talk, protect the ship. Doflamingo will be furious if anything happens to it."

"Leave it to me, these pests are easier to deal with than those persistent marines."

With that, Trebol shot out a mass of sticky mucus, precisely enveloping each incoming cannonball.

The shells that landed on the ship seemed to be duds, entirely harmless.

Diamante was not idle either, picking off the stragglers with his Snake Sword, causing them to explode in mid-air.

Just the two of them held off the onslaught of cannon fire from the three pirate ships!

Of course, this was also related to the fact that the firepower of the three pirate ships was lackluster.

If they were facing three navy ships, Trebol and Diamante would have fled long ago.

"Captain! Our cannonballs can't hit them!"

"And their firepower is much stronger than ours!"

"Damn it, once I control the underground black market, I will arm our ship to the teeth, and then assemble a fleet!"

"What do we do now?"

"Charge! Engage them in a boarding battle!"

"Right, that's it! We have more people, most of the Donquixote family is trapped on the mountain, there aren't many left here, as long as we get on board, we are sure to win!"

The captains deliberately avoided mentioning the possible changes on the mountain and loudly boosted morale.

They had no choice, they had no way to retreat now.

They had to charge forward!

At the same time, they also harbored a hope against hope that even if something unexpected happened, the combined forces of their three pirate crews would be enough to escape unscathed.

Thus, the three pirate ships immediately picked up speed, charging headlong into the cannon fire.

"Hehe, what do these guys think? Do they believe we're easy prey, willingly rushing towards their deaths?" Trebol chuckled darkly, a long trail of snot running down his nose.

Diamante, on the other hand, flexed his wrist, "This is better, we can finish this quickly."

"I suppose you're right, let them come, and let's wrap this up. Doflamingo and his crew should be returning soon."

Following Trebol's command, the firepower of the Flamingo was significantly reduced, creating an illusion of a lack of ammunition.

The encircling pirate crews didn't suspect a thing, overjoyed, they pushed their speeds to the maximum, reaching the Flamingo in the blink of an eye.

"Let's go, lads! Let's kill those bastards from the Donquixote family!"

"Long-neck pirate crew, charge!"

"Don't let the others get ahead of us, the Hedgehog pirate crew charge without fear!"
