Captain of My Wronged Seed of Pirates

Daz's defeat at the speed of light was slightly beyond Crocodile's expectations.

He originally thought that the Spade Pirates were just the taller ones in the first half of the Grand Line. Ace, who was at most the captain, would be more difficult to deal with because he was also a natural type.

But the fact that Datsu was defeated in just one fight made him understand that the Spade Pirates were not simple.

The half-human, half-snake appearance and terrifying strange power can be explained by the animal devil fruit, but the black color attached to the black scimitar, and the key to shattering the Daz blade is definitely the armed color Haki.

That is not an ability that can be mastered by just any pirate group composed of cats and dogs.

Let alone mastering the first half of the Grand Line, those who know the concept of domineering are very rare.

Moreover, they also know information about ancient weapons that even veteran pirates may not know.

"You are by no means an ordinary rookie pirate group. Who are you?"

Crocodile's face became heavy.

The most appropriate guess is that the Spade Pirates are not a purely rookie pirate group that started from scratch. There are definitely "second generation thieves" whose elders are veteran pirates.

It's not that Crocodile is afraid of the veteran pirates who may exist behind the Spade Pirates, but he understands that if this is the case, then the people who know about his idea of ​​​​the ancient weapon Hades are far more than just the Spade Pirates. People.

If this news is widely publicized, let alone whether he can get Hades, he may even receive a "Devil-Slaying Order".

Pola beside him has not yet recovered from the shock.

She originally thought that even if Daz was not a top powerhouse, he would be no different, but unexpectedly, he was knocked away by Lamia in one glance.

Now she realizes that she and Daz may not even be cannon fodder.

Is there such a terrifying monster in this sea?

"It seems you are not qualified to take action here."

Crocodile handed the coat draped over his shoulders to Pola and said,

"You go take care of Daz, and then leave everything to me."

The original plan to test the Spade Pirates through two subordinates was considered a failure, but it was not a complete failure.

At least Crocodile understood that the Spade Pirates were by no means an opponent to be taken lightly.

And no matter whether there is someone behind them or not, no matter how scary old guys their elders are, the current optimal solution is to defeat them mercilessly, and we will talk about the rest later.

"Really, after staying in 'Paradise' for such a long time, I almost forgot what real fighting is like."

Crocodile moved his neck and made a "click" sound as he walked towards Lamia and the three members of the Spade Pirates.

"Yeah, scary."

As if a real snake crawling movement was reversed, Lamia quickly crawled backwards and hid behind Sen Luo with the tip of her tail as the lead.

"It seems that because he is a beast-like existence, he can feel the gap between the two sides more clearly."

Seeing Lamia retreating without a fight, Crocodile raised a contemptuous smile on his lips.

"No no no."

Sen Luo smiled and waved his hand and said,

"I think it's just because you look so scary. You have such a big scary scar on your face, but you still don't know how to make your facial expression a little gentler. That's not good."

This made Crocodile's raised mouth corners twitch as if coaxing a child.

But at the same time, Sen Luo's calm expression made Crocodile a little unsure whether he was bluffing or deliberately irritating himself.

So Crocodile stopped where he was, stretched out his left hand and pointed at Ace, and ticked it provocatively.

"Let me see your confidence. Let me see clearly where your courage to target my head comes from."

"Didn't you tell me? What I'm eyeing is Whitebeard's head. I'm really not interested in your head."

Ace also waved his hand slightly helplessly and said,

"I'm just here to beat you up."

"Oh, you don't take me seriously as the loser to Whitebeard. That's what you want to say, right?"

The corners of Crocodile's mouth twitched even more.

Ace obviously didn't intend to offend him intentionally, but what he said hit his wound accurately, and he jumped repeatedly to add salt to it.

"But even if I lose at the hands of that man, that doesn't mean I will lose to a young boy like you."

A small sandstorm cyclone formed in the palm of Crocodile's right hand, and was then thrown away by him.

"Salan"

The small cyclone continued to expand and flew towards Ace.

"It came just fine."

Ace's right arm turned into flames and burned, then he swung out.

"fire punch"

The violent flames collided with the violent sandstorm, turning into a super-high-temperature vortex of twisted air, creating a stalemate between Ace and Crocodile. .

Hot black crystals continued to splash out from the vortex.

After using vines to block several waves of crystallized sand that were coming toward him and Lamia, Senluo stretched out the vines with both hands, wrapped Lamia with one hand, and grabbed the big cocoon that held Robin in place with the other.

"The fight between natural ability users is really scary."

Saying this, Senluo led the two of them away from the place quickly and retreated a hundred meters away.

By this time, the ultra-high temperature vortex had dissipated, and Ace and Crocodile began their second round of battle.

"Flame Ring·Fire Pillar"

Ace jumped up high and shot the rotating flame pillar towards Crocodile.

"Desert Sword"

Crocodile's right hand turned into a huge sand blade and faced Ace's fire pillar attack.

The moment the huge sand blade came into contact with the rotating fire pillar, the fire pillar was cut in half like a fresh bamboo shoot.

Senluo, who was retreating in the distance and paying attention to the movements of the battlefield, found that the edge of the sand blade was covered with a layer of darkness that could never be found in sand.

"That's armed domineering!"

He made a sound of surprise.

When Ace was in the small garden before, he tried to wrap the weapon color around his flames, but he never succeeded.

Even if a fist is wrapped in armed-color Haki, the Armed-Colored Haki will fade away after being elementalized.

So they naturally thought that elementalization and armed color Haki could not coexist.

Now it seems that it is not that elementalization and armed-color Haki cannot coexist, but that the energy element of fire and armed-color Haki are not compatible with each other, and the solid sand can be entangled by armed-color Haki.

The sand blade entwined with armed Haki cut through the pillar of fire and cut Ace in half vertically.

But Crocodile did not show the excitement of succeeding, because he knew that he did not cut Ace in half. Ace actively divided himself into two halves before his sand blade cut Ace.

However, he was not discouraged, because he knew early on that even with armed Haki, it was not that easy to hit a person with natural abilities.
