Chapter 66: Arthur's new power

"Who are you?" King, who was flying in the sky, was the first person who saw Arthur, who stood quietly near the entrance to the cave.

King's voice made the rest of the Pirates look in the direction he was looking, and they all saw a strange man wrapping a piece of cloth around his face, and only his strange red eyes showed from his expressions.

'That's you!" Queen felt some cold sweat seeping from his back when he remembered what happened a year ago at the port.

Everyone was surprised by Queen's reaction and felt a little puzzled and worried at the same time.

"Sir!"

Whistle!

"You woke up!" a look of shock appeared on the face of Odrick and the eagle but quickly turned into an overjoyed one, a few tears slipped from Odrick's body as he felt a heavy burden lifted from his heart.

Arthur didn't speak and remained standing in place as he calmly began to count his enemies, it's been more than a year since the Battle of the port happened and now that his strength has risen a little and he has obtained a demon fruit, things will definitely be different.

"Kill him!" Queen shouted at the top of his voice, which made all the nearby pirates turn their focus towards Arthur, while attacking him en masse.

Bang! Bang! Boom!

Slash!

A hail of bullets and cutting blades shot towards Arthur, who continued to stand quietly.

Hundreds of attacks hit Arthur's parking spot and made the dust fly crazily everywhere making the dark forest even darker, some Pirates ran towards him and got inside the huge dust cloud.

"Sir!?" Odrick screamed in horror and wanted to run towards Arthur, but a group of Pirates stood in front of him and intercepted his way.

The soil flew up and blocked the moonlight illuminating the place.

"Uhh!"

"Uhhhh!"

"What's going on!" Everyone was puzzled when they started hearing screaming sounds coming from the dust cloud.

"Everybody calm down" King shouted loudly, he changed his shape and turned into a huge dinosaur, Model: Pteranodon, then with a strong wave of his huge wings King pushed all the dust away, which made the place become clear, but the sight that greeted them made them want to vomit.

Several charred bodies fell next to Arthur, who was holding a man howling in pain, the man's blood began to come out of his body and enter Arthur's body, who did not show any reaction.

"He's a monster!" Everyone present felt scared and took a step back, even King who kept flying so calmly shook his heart a little.

"So is there anyone else who wants to attack" Arthur throws the man's body, which has become strangely dry and charred, away, causing it to crumble into several pieces as it falls.

All the Pirates swallowed a mouthful of saliva when they saw Arthur looking in their direction.

Even Odrick and the Eagle felt a slight pressure coming from him that made them reluctant to walk towards him, but they shook their heads and walked to stand next to him.

Odrick was ashamed and feeling guilty about what had happened, so he stood next to Arthur with his head bowed.

But the Eagle was more pleased to see his master, so he walked and patted his wing on Arthur's back, which made the sight look funny and ridiculous as well.

Arthur did not speak and kept all his concentration directed to his surroundings and after a short while he sighed.

"Don't you want to come, then I'll come towards you" Arthur walked a step forward and then his body began to deform and turned into a huge cloud of darkness that covered everyone and made them completely lose vision.

"Where am I!"

"What's going on!"

The Pirates started screaming with fear, but at that moment the screaming sounds started coming from everywhere, which made all the Pirates in the middle of the darkness feel incredible fear, some of them for the first time experienced something called real horror.

"Please excuse me!" Some of them fell to the ground and started begging for their lives.

"King, Queen and some of the Pirates, as well as Odrick and the Eagle, looked at what was going on around them in amazement, Arthur walked a step forward and then a large number of Pirates started screaming and crying like little girls.

"What Have you done to them!" Queen trumpeted in panic as he looked at the human in front of him who he was unable to understand. He had been feeling a little scared and wary of him because of what happened at the port, but now he began to feel terrified and wanted to get away from this dangerous person.

"Nothing, I only made them fall into some illusions" Arthur spoke spontaneously as he walked forward, he did not lie, this technique belonged to the invader, and through it he planted a deep desire in Odrick earlier, and after Arthur got the memories of the invader and his cells, he became able to do this technique, but it only targets psychologically weak people, so only a few Pirates fell into it.

"Free them from illusions, or you'll see something you won't like" King landed on the floor next to Queen and challenged in an expressionless voice.

"Oh! a little chick of the Lunarian Race wants to terrify me" Arthur smiled sarcastically but his words made everyone feel a deep shock.

Odrick and the rest of the Pirates turned around and even Queen looked at King out of the corner of his eye.

"How..!" The shock appeared in King's voice while he could not find what to say.

"It doesn't matter how I know, then are you going to kill everyone here after they find out your little secret?" Arthur continued sarcastically as he walked slowly and after reaching the center of the Pirates he stopped and looked at everyone calmly.

He raised his hand and pointed his index finger at one of the Pirates who kept their consciousness and did not fall into the illusion, The Pirate felt a little scared and took a step back, suddenly a bloody red line reflecting the moonlight flew towards him at an insane speed, the pirate was very slow and could not dodge the red line that pierced his forehead and came out from behind his head, dragging with it some parts of his brain.

The red line continued to fly and collided with another man, making a hole in his chest, after the line circled around the Pirates and killed 4 men and then returned to Arthur's finger and entered his body.

"A bullet of blood! could you have eaten blood blood No Mi!" Queen felt shocked and shouted loudly

"You're very smart, then won't we fight, you've been staring at me for a long time, come on, attack" Arthur spoke sarcastically while pointing to Queen and King.

"Okay" Queen changed his form and ran towards Arthur at a tremendous speed.
