Pirate Death Arrives.

Among the crowd, there was a slightly stronger folk strongman who had another thought.

Devil Sheriff Lafayette has a bounty of 3.5 million. This bounty may seem high at first glance, but there is also the bonus of the entire power of the Death Pirates behind it.

If we talk about the real reward, it will definitely not be that high.

"Although he is a Devil Fruit user, that guy has quite a reputation, but that is just the reputation brought by Xihai. I didn't see any glorious achievements in the newspapers when he came to the Grand Line!"

"If we unite, we may not be his opponent. At the same time, this is also the key to our victory!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone held their breath.

To be honest, if the person coming was Luo Di, there was really no need for them to resist.

Even Bundy Wold, they didn't have the courage to resist.

However, it was only Lafayette who came...

Seeing that his words had moved many people, the powerful folk man pulled out the long knife from his waist and pointed it forward. His whole aura suddenly changed.

"If you still don't want to die, just follow me and take it..."

Just in the middle of speaking, the figure speeding on the sea suddenly turned into a black afterimage.

The next moment, the powerful folk man only felt that his throat was pressed against something sharp. At the same time, he could also feel some kind of warm liquid slowly sliding down from his neck until it reached his chest before being covered by his clothes. Completely sucked.

As his nose twitched, a strong smell of blood filled the air.

There is no doubt that it is blood!

Moreover, he could feel that what was pressed against his neck was... a long sword!

"Eh..."

He opened his mouth, but not a single word came out for a while.

And those people standing not far away who were so inspired that they didn't even dare to take a breath at this moment.

One second he was nearly a hundred meters away, and the next moment he was on the shore. This speed was simply unheard of!

"Tsk, tell me, what do you want to do with me? Why don't you continue not to say anything?"

Lafayette looked at the person in front of him with interest, and the sharp blade of the cane sword pressed against the other person's neck.

As long as he exerts a little force, he can easily take away the other party's life.

Tens of meters away.

Croann looked solemn, but there was unconcealable shock deep in his eyes.

He didn't even see Lafayette's movements clearly just now.

"The big pirate with 3.5 million, maybe his strength is far from that!"

As the captain of the escort team, Croan often dealt with pirates, bounty hunters, and navy, many of whom were truly strong.

However, there is no comparison with the Lafayette in front of me.

That guy is so strong!

Moreover, based on what he knew, Lafayette seemed to be just a navigator on the Death Pirates.

Generally speaking, because navigators have to develop charts and learn more about navigation, they don't have the extra time and energy to hone themselves. Naturally, they don't have very strong combat power.

However, the navigator in front of me is different!

"Damn, what a bunch of monsters!"

In the end, Croan could only curse secretly.

However, now that the other party has taken action, he cannot sit idly by and do nothing, otherwise it will only chill the citizens of the Kingdom of St. Malidine.

"stop!"

With a cold shout, he walked up with a group of escorts with different looks.

The people around them also subconsciously made way for them.

"Um?"

Lafayette raised his brows and moved the sword back, which was a pain to the strong folk man.

However, no matter how painful his neck was, he did not dare to say a word, for fear that his head would suddenly move next moment, and he would not even be able to cry.

"You want me to stop?"

The corners of Lafayette's mouth raised slightly, but there was no warmth in his eyes, which were as sharp as a sword.

Croan trembled when he saw him. After suppressing the fear in his heart, he said slowly.

"I don't think there is any conflict between our Kingdom of Saint Martin and the Death Pirates that you belong to, right? Isn't it... inappropriate to have such a big fight?"

It seems that he is preparing to convince others with his reason, or in other words - he is stalling for time.

In response, Lafayette just shook his head slightly.

"It would be too naive to reason with pirates, but..."

When he said this, a flash of regret flashed in his eyes.

"It's a pity that the captain did not issue an order to kill you."

As soon as these words came out, Croan couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the next moment, he felt as if his brain had been hit hard, and his vision became increasingly blurry, until his consciousness completely disappeared and he no longer had any consciousness.

In fact, not only him, but also the guards following him and everyone whose eyes were focused on Lafayette felt the same.

After about a minute.

Lafayette breathed a long sigh of relief. His already pale face became even paler now, and a hint of fatigue could be seen between his brows.

He looked around and saw that everyone who had been communicating quietly before was now standing there blankly like wooden figures.

Apparently, they were all hypnotized.

As for the number of people, a rough estimate is that there are probably about a thousand people.

No wonder Lafayette was so exhausted.

Hypnotizing a powerful person, such as Croan in front of him, takes more energy than hypnotizing dozens or hundreds of ordinary people.

Lafayette's hypnosis relies on fruit abilities, rather than relying on external objects such as pocket watches like the hypnotist Zango.

Therefore, his hypnosis also comes at a price, and that is physical strength.

Just at this moment, a slightly trembling voice came forward.

"What...what's going on? He...why don't they move?"

It's the strong man among the people.

Because his back was to Lafayette and he felt pain in his neck, the effect of hypnosis on him was very low. Except for his head being a little dizzy, he did not fall into that chaotic state.

"Tsk, what a pity. If you were hypnotized like others, I wouldn't do anything to you, but now..."

Lafayette glanced at him coldly, and just when he was about to use his right hand to deal with it, his pupils shrank sharply.

He moved back almost subconsciously.

However, his movement was half a beat too slow after all, and a black shadow flew at high speed from a distance.

Lafayette had just moved his back foot, and the 'black shadow' had already arrived only two or three meters away from him.

The speed was so fast that he couldn't avoid it at all.

"I didn't expect there to be such a strong person here, but I underestimated you!"

Helpless, Lafayette could only wave his right hand and raise his sword to resist.

The fear of death always brings out the best in people.

The 'folk strongman' who thought he was about to die reacted quite quickly. The moment the cane sword holding his neck was pulled away, he kicked off his feet and rolled his body forward several times.

Although he looked a little embarrassed, he was finally safe now.
