Pirate Death Arrives.

"Innocent, haha, I think it's really you who is innocent!"

The corners of Simonton's mouth raised slightly.

When he flew about a hundred meters vertically, his wings suddenly paused and his body slowly stopped.

Below, the ghost spider was still following him closely. Now it was only six or seven meters away from him, and the two sides were very close.

In fact, there is something special about it.

If it were flying sideways, with the explosive power of the Ghost Spider, it would have caught up with Smanton long ago.

But Smanton chose to fly vertically.

To him, this was nothing, even if it was just half-animal transformation, flying was as simple as breathing.

However, Ghost Spider is different, he is just an ordinary human being...

Maintaining the moon step already requires a lot of energy from him. On top of that, flying to a higher position requires even more energy and puts a huge burden on the body.

At the same time, the speed will be slower, and naturally it will not be able to catch up with Smanton immediately.

"It's now!"

At this moment, Smanton was almost in a state of 'time-stop'.

His reddish-brown eyes flickered slightly, and then, his body moved violently.

Suddenly turning around, a pair of sharp claws grabbed at the ghost spider rushing up below with extremely terrifying force.

"Well done!"

Ghost Spider sneered, not afraid at all.

I saw him stepping in the air with his feet, using his strength, the eight long knives in his hands staggered back and forth, and then slashed out heavily as a cold light passed by.

clang--

"I said, why are your navy so restless?"

The eight long knives collided with Smanton's sharp claws in mid-air.

This is not only a battle of armed domineering, but also a battle of comprehensive strength.

For a time, it was difficult to tell the difference between the two sides.

However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that in aerial combat, Smanton definitely has the advantage.

Moreover, he was also in a high position, and the Ghost Spider below was at an absolute disadvantage.

Don't Ghost Spider understand this?

Obviously not!

However, after Lafayette escaped, he obviously got a little carried away.

As the saying goes, there is no turning back when the bow is drawn.

Knowing that all this was a trap set by Simonton, he still broke in without hesitation.

Just like right now, the two seem to be evenly matched, but as soon as time comes, it will be immediately clear who is better and who is worse.

……

at the same time.

On board the Death.

"Who were you... injured by? The wound is so deep!"

on the deck.

Tuji inspected the wound on Lafayette's chest, his little eyes full of surprise.

The wound was indeed very deep and had already reached the ribs. Because there was some armed domineering energy left on it, it had been eating away at Lafayette's body, and the wound was getting worse.

"Fortunately, you came back in time. If it had been a few hours later, the wound would have completely deteriorated and it would not have healed in a year or two, and it would have left extremely serious sequelae!"

As he spoke, it quickly stood up.

"You lie here for a while, and I'll get the medicine box and give you a brief treatment!"

After whispering a reminder, it quickly ran towards the rear cabin on its short legs.

After it left, Luo Di, who was leaning on the guardrail of the ship, asked calmly.

"who is it?"

After a moment of silence, Lafayette finally said it.

"Vice Admiral, Ghost Spider!"

"Smanton saved me, but the situation there may be a little bad, because it is close to Jersey Island, and the navy has almost landed ashore at this time."

"They can easily detect the battle between Ghost Spider and Smanton. If they provide assistance, Smanton will be in trouble, so..."

After a slight pause in his voice, he suddenly raised his head and looked directly at Luo Di.

"So, I hope the captain can help him this time!"

In response, Luo Di just shrugged and smiled noncommittally.

Although he didn't want to worry about those trivial matters, as his crewmate was beaten, he, as the captain, had to find his way back to the situation!

Isn't it?

"Okay, just do what Tuji said and take a good rest later. Just leave the matters of Smanton to me!"

Waving his hands gently, Luo Di tapped his toes, and his body, pulled by the Death God's robe, flew towards the sea ahead.

At this time, four or five hours had passed since the start time of the ‘Demon Slaying Order’.

The sun is gradually setting.

The dazzling sunlight also turned into a warm sunset.

However, in such a beautiful scene, the sea is very shameless, like a crazy sea beast, surging crazily.

The whole structure looks extremely weird.

On the island of Jerseyrea.

The waves kept lapping at the harbor.

And on the shore filled with mist, two figures were standing.

"It failed after all, just like last time!"

A look of helplessness flashed across Kizaru's eyes.

From the moment he ordered the retreat, the outcome of the 'Demon Slaying Order' against the Death Pirates was already doomed.

No matter from which aspect, it was their navy that lost.

"They are indeed a difficult group of guys!"

At this time, even Garp's face showed a rare look of solemnity.

The two people he had fought against before, one was Shiliu of the Rain and the other was Bundy Wald, both of whom were very strong.

To be honest, if he had been a few years older, and the two of them had been a few years older, it was hard to say who would win in the end.

The most frightening thing is that after these two people joined the Death Pirates, they just made up for the shortcomings of the Death Pirates, directly increasing their overall strength to a higher level.

"Actually, it doesn't matter whether we win or lose. The most important thing is, what should we do in the follow-up? Like the previous Demon-Slaying Order?"

Kizaru touched the stubble on his chin, and a look of sadness appeared on his long, slightly obscene face.

Although the target is the entire Death Pirates, the actual implementation location of the 'Demon Slaying Order' is actually Jerseyrea Island.

That is, what they are really trying to do is destroy the entirety of people and things associated with Jerseyrea.

The Demon-Slaying Order is so extreme and unreasonable.

For example, about twenty years ago, the world government, considering the danger of continuing to interpret historical texts, launched a demon-slaying order to destroy the entire O'Hara Island, leaving only Nicole Robin.

Another example is that not long ago, the demon-slaying order launched by Spandam was originally intended to limit the threat to the Straw Hats, but in the end, the entire Judicial Island was destroyed.

As for exceptions... they don't exist yet!

Should they destroy Jerseyrea where innocent people were involved?

This is also what Kizaru is worried about.

After a moment of silence, Garp finally spoke.

"Since we have not accomplished our goal, then I don't think we need to destroy this island!"

"Just pretend that this demon-slaying order does not exist!"
