"Let's end it in the explosion! Senior!"
The chef is smiling so much!
"Swish swish swish swish!!"
The number was extremely staggering. At least more than a hundred explosive tentacles were drawn towards the old man like they were covering the sky!
Sometimes the victory or defeat of the battle occurs in this moment. The chef did not take advantage of the old man before. The confrontation between the two people can also be described as evenly matched, although the chef is always attacking and the old man is defending. , but in fact, the old man was not injured at all, and his defense was impeccable!
However, after all, this old man is not young anymore, and his physical strength is not at all advantageous compared to that of young people like the chef. Being able to fight fiercely for so long before revealing a flaw is enough to show that this old man is very powerful!
"Don't underestimate me! Little devil!"
The old man roared!
The body that was almost naked was instantly wrapped with dark haki, especially the haki on both hands, which was so dark that it turned purple!
"I'll let you see, my power is far more than this!!!!"
The old man resolutely rushed towards the overwhelming explosive tentacles!
"Boom boom boom boom boom!!!!"
The sound of the explosion shook the earth! !
The terrifying shock wave shook the sea surface into rough waves!
"Oh?"
The chef's eyes widened suddenly!
"Kid!!!"
In the smoke, the old man, covered in blood, burnt black, and faintly smelling of meat, broke through the smoke and pounced directly on the chef! His hands were wrapped in powerful haki and shone dimly, looking like real blades!
"There is nothing you can do now!!!"
When he said this, the senior pirate was already close to the chef, and his invisible slash was ready to go! !
"Then there's nothing we can do!!"
There was a smile on the corner of the chef's mouth, and he held two kitchen knives tightly in his hands! The dark haki quickly covered it!
"Oooh!!!!!!!"
It's like the first ray of sunshine when the world opens! It's like a meteorite from the distant deep space of the universe streaking across the sky! Extremely bright, extremely moving!
It is no exaggeration to describe the confrontation between these two men in such words!
Two men stood facing each other several meters apart! Neither man was moving.
"puff!"
"What a powerful slash!"
The chef looked down at the cross-shaped wound on his chest and sighed! Blood continued to seep from his wounds.
"Little... brat..."
The unknown senior pirate fell to the ground helplessly, muttering silently. The small wound on his ribs was exposed, the bones were perfectly bypassed, and the internal organs inside were severely attacked. He stabbed the kitchen knife deeply in. Although the wound was not visible on the outside, it was certain that he would bleed heavily inside!
"Kuh--"
The chef breathed a sigh of relief slowly, "Then the battle is over!"
"Huff--"
Lying on the ground and panting feebly, the old man looked unwillingly at the man on the pirate ship parked on the shore, the Fire Dragon, one of the Shichibukai. Only then did he realize that the man's eyes were not directed here. As he watched, the man kept smiling while watching the battle on the other side!
"Are you so sure that your men can defeat me?"
The old man's face was full of unwillingness, "Are you so proud?"
The old man thought of the man in the feather cloak, who had extremely amazing strength and defeated him without much effort. From then on, most of the island's income had to be handed over to him. It was really a shame! The guy who hopes to use the Gene Corps to avenge him is also the Shichibukai!
"Is this a change of times?"
This loser of the last pirate era thought like this at the last moment of his life, "Roger, the Golden Lion, Whitebeard, the overlords of the previous era, and the brats of this era, have times really changed? "
"Boom!"
"Hey, senior!"
There was a slight sound of landing, followed by Vlad's casual question, "Speaking of which, what's your name?"
"After all, he is also the one who was defeated by the pirate group of the future Pirate King, so he has a lot of cards! Tell me your name!"
"..."
The old man lying on the ground opened his eyes, and suddenly recalled what happened more than 20 years ago. Suddenly, he had an encounter with the Golden Lion Pirates, and was completely wiped out by the monster. He fled back in embarrassment. On the shore, I haven't used the moves of No Sword style for more than 20 years, and suddenly I remembered this.
"..."
Whispering softly, the old pirate lost his life.
"Well, Harlan, that's not a cool name at all!"
Vlad said so.
"I think it's cool! Both the person and the name!"
The chef smiled and said, "He's just a stubborn old man who refuses to accept his old age and doesn't want to admit that he has lagged behind the times!"
"Hey, hey, hey, don't you need to take care of your injury?"
Vlad said this while looking at the chef's wound that was still bleeding.

"Are you going to stop me again?"
Paso tilted his head and said.
In front of him, the timid fishermen once again stood in front of him fearfully! Behind them was Jack whose chest was penetrated directly, leaving a big hole lying on the ground helplessly!
"You, you, you can't kill him!"
Paso also recognized this middle-aged man who was pushed out by everyone with a trembling mouth. He was one of his childhood playmates. He was a very reliable big brother. He always took a group of their children to play at the beach. Now think about it. , it really happened a long time ago, so long that I have almost forgotten the faces of these people!
Paso thought this way, and after careful identification, he could still find a few familiar faces among the crowd! My friends, the elders who have helped me, are all people who have laughed and laughed together!
"Why?"
Paso said.
"Why are you still protecting him! Didn't he kill so many of you just now? Why are you still standing in front of me for a murderer who killed his own people?"
"Death, death, it doesn't matter how many people die,"
The warm and kind brother in Paso's memory said this, "But, but, but if Mr. Jack dies, this island, this island will be finished!"
"..."
Paso's eyes gradually opened wide.
"If Lord Jack dies, there will be no bait in this city, no Pollock fish will be caught, and merchants will no longer come here! This city, and all of us, will be finished!"
Seemingly noticing Paso's wavering, the man continued, "Do you want to take away the hope of this country?"
"Hope? You call Jack's potion hope?"
Paso said in a deep voice, "This is originally an unfinished product made by the teacher. Look at yourselves, your life is obviously better than before, but you are getting weaker and weaker. This kind of thing can also be called hope. Really? How long can you survive if you continue to use such potions!"
"It doesn't matter if I die,"
This originally honest fisherman said, "At least, it is better to die rich than to die poor!"
"..."
Paso was speechless for a moment.
"I've been able to improve fishing bait! It only takes a little experimentation to create an animal that can take on the role of fishing bait! So,"
After a long while, Paso raised his head and said, "There is no need to continue using the original bait!"
"..."
The atmosphere was somewhat silent, and the response was not as enthusiastic as Paso had imagined. The fishermen lowered their heads, looking somewhat depressed.
"What's wrong?"
Paso said in surprise.
"Ahem, haha, ahem, hahahaha! What's wrong? What a good question! Paso!"
Suddenly, Jack's weak laughter came from behind the crowd, "You don't understand, Paso, these guys are very happy about having new bait, but they are also worried,"
"Experimental materials used for the development of new fishing baits, who will come up with that expensive Pollock fish? After all,"
Jack's tone was very mocking, "That's not a small amount of money! Right? Piranhas!!"
"..."
These fishermen were speechless. Jack's words really hit their thoughts.
"..."
Paso lowered his head gently, his long curly hair covering his face, and his expression could not be seen.
"I don't need many materials. If I just develop it, a little flesh and blood is enough! Even for large-scale manufacturing, one fish is enough, so, so,"
Paso raised his head with a smile on his face, "Don't worry about this problem!"
"..."
Silence, still silence waiting for him.
"Anyway, there is a charge anyway, right?"
someone whispered.
"What? Who's talking?"
Paso was stunned.
"There is a charge anyway, right? Just like Mr. Jack! He's using bait to blackmail us and take away our hard-earned money!"
Such a voice came from the crowd, "Anyway, you just want to use us to make money for you, right? What do you mean it's for us, it's for this island, you, but... Isn't it just for money? We risked everything to go fishing and worked hard to make a little money, and you are like vampires lying on our bodies to suck our blood! How greedy are you!"
"..."
The expression on Paso's face was stagnant, and his eyes didn't even blink.
"Hahahahahaha! You're right, you're so right! I'm just doing it for money!"
Jack said with a smile.
"Snap!"
Paso's right hand covered his face.
"Teacher,"
Something called tears slid down his face.
"This island,"
"It's hopeless!!"
