Action (2)

They arrived here, and so did the Straw Hat Boy.

He was surrounded by the Revolutionary Army and other prisoners. They sheltered him, so he rushed here as well.

"Luffy, you go first! I'll hold them off here for you," Fanxin shouted.

The Straw Hat Boy is eager to rescue his brother; he should be given this chance. If he doesn't even give him this chance, then the Straw Hat Boy's trip here has been in vain.

Of course, besides giving Straw Hat Luffy a chance, he also had other reasons.

Ahead of them were the Shichibukai, though there were only five now, two fewer. But this was still a troublesome matter! He was powerful and had to stay behind to hold them off; otherwise, no one could advance.

Letting the Straw Hat Boy stay would be absolutely impossible, because he's not as strong as him! For him to stay would be tantamount to suicide. Even if he didn't die, his efforts here would be in vain.

Therefore, in order to save time, he had no choice but to stay.

"Okay, thanks." Although Straw Hat Boy was a bit simple-minded, he knew what Fanxin was supposed to do by staying behind! So, without hesitation, he immediately rushed forward.

Meanwhile, those around him began to help him hold off the marines who were about to attack them.

Fanxin Xin walked forward step by step, wielding two swords and cautiously watching the Shichibukai, ready to launch an attack at any moment.

Of the Shichibukai, the others did not make a move, but only Tyrant Kuma saw him and launched an attack without saying a word.

The Tyrant Kuma opened its massive maw and unleashed a laser beam at Xiao Fan, showing no Fanxin and seemingly intent on annihilating him completely.

"Damn it, we've got some connections, haven't we? Why is he attacking me?" Fanxin was annoyed that while others weren't attacking him, Tyrant Kuma had attacked him first. Although he and Tyrant Kuma weren't good friends, he had helped the bear a lot! Logically speaking, the bear shouldn't have attacked him.

No one else attacked him, and he didn't attack him, so there's no problem at all! The navy won't say anything.

But Tyrant Kuma, without saying a word, attacked him directly, seemingly hoping he would die sooner rather than later. This was too strange.

Fanxin cursed loudly, originally thinking that Tyrant Kuma would restrain himself a bit. However, to his dismay, Tyrant Kuma intensified his attack, not only using his mouth but also unleashing his Devil Fruit power, the Paw-Paw Fruit, to attack him.

He was extremely ruthless, showing no mercy whatsoever, as if he had encountered an enemy.

Fanxin Xin dodged several times, but his opponent still didn't stop, leaving him speechless. Even if he wanted to avoid suspicion, a slight attack would have been acceptable. However, his opponent's continuous attacks were not about avoiding suspicion, but about actually trying to kill him.

"Damn it, did you get your head stuck in a door?!" Fanxin was furious. He swung his diamond knife at the Tyrant Kuma, and a sword aura shot out, heading straight for the Tyrant Kuma.

The Tyrant Kuma sensed it and immediately unleashed a laser cannon to stop it.

Fanxin, Tyrant Kuma, with his exceptionally keen sense of danger, used the power of his Paw-Paw Fruit to create a massive compression cannon, blocking and neutralizing the sword energies.

"Damn it!" Fanxin was furious. The Tyrant Kuma seemed to have activated its full-body defense, making it difficult for him to Tyrant Kuma.

But leaving seemed even more difficult for him; the Tyrant Kuma had its sights set on him and kept attacking him, seemingly trying to keep him there completely.

"No, this guy shouldn't be the Tyrant Kuma. It's too strange," Fanxin said, frowning after observing it for a while.

"What do you mean?" Langyue asked, puzzled.

"A few days ago, Tyrant Kuma helped Straw Hat Luffy and even asked me to protect the Straw Hat Pirates' ship. This shows that he and Straw Hat Boy are of one mind. Now, I'm helping Straw Hat Boy, so logically he shouldn't attack me and should let me go. That way, I can help Straw Hat Boy. But he's clinging to me relentlessly, which is definitely unusual. Something must have happened to him." Fanxin Xin frowned and shouted.

"Could he be a fake?" Langyue wondered.

"I think so too. However, people can fake things, but Devil Fruit abilities cannot. This is Devil Fruit User. Therefore, I am certain that this is the real Tyrant Kuma, not Tyrant Kuma puppet." Fanxin pondered for a moment and said with certainty.

"I see. So what exactly happened to him?" Langyue was even more puzzled. Since this was indeed the Tyrant Kuma, and Tyrant Kuma Fanxin had some connection with it, their meeting shouldn't have been like this.

Even if the Tyrant Kuma were to attack him, it shouldn't have stopped him; wouldn't that have been a waste of time? Therefore, he was even more puzzled.

"I think his mind has been controlled, controlled by the Navy, and he's been completely turned into a killing machine," Fanxin said, narrowing his eyes as he glanced at Tyrant Kuma.

He had seen many Tyrant Kuma a few days ago; those were killing weapons manufactured by the Navy, called Pacifista. And their prototypes were the real Tyrant Kuma.

If the Navy can create a Tyrant Kuma, controlling a real Tyrant Kuma probably wouldn't be too difficult.

Therefore, Fanxin Xin dared to conclude that the Navy must have modified Tyrant Kuma, causing him to lose his memory and turning him into a killing machine.

"What are we going to do? We're stuck here and can't get away at all!" Fanxin cried out.

"That's true. It seems we have to go all out." Fanxin glanced at Tyrant Kuma and said coldly.

Although he had a slight connection with Tyrant Kuma, that was when Tyrant Kuma was alive. Now that Tyrant Kuma was dead, this was merely a body of Tyrant Kuma. He had no reason to show mercy.

If he shows mercy, they will never be able to escape his control, which is not a good thing.

He had to keep going, because Akainu was right ahead! He had to find Akainu and give him a good stab; only then could he quell the hatred in his heart.

Therefore, he absolutely cannot stay. However, the Tyrant Kuma has him pinned down, and if he wants to leave, he has to be ruthless; that's the only way.

"Alright, I'll provide support from the side." Langyue nodded slightly upon hearing this.

It has no connection with Tyrant Kuma anymore, so it dares to make a move. If Tyrant Kuma dares to come over, it will definitely teach Tyrant Kuma a lesson.

"Alright, blindfold it first, then I'll launch my attack," Fanxin shouted.

Tyrant Kuma is now a cyborg; his body has been modified in many ways, especially his eyes. Tyrant Kuma can accurately aim and attack because of his modified eyes.

Once Langyue can blind that person, he can quickly approach them and deliver a fatal blow.

"No problem, go ahead and do it!" Langyue shouted immediately upon hearing this.

It quickly summoned its power, plunging the surroundings into darkness, completely enveloping even the Tyrant Kuma.

Tyrant Kuma looked around, but couldn't find any trace of Fanxin, because it was completely dark all around and he couldn't see anything at all!

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Fanxin Xin charged towards the Tyrant Kuma. Upon reaching it, he swung his diamond knife and slashed at the Tyrant Kuma, unleashing a massive burst of sword energy that struck the Tyrant Kuma directly in the chest.

A huge gash appeared, a wound inflicted by the sword energy. Tyrant Kuma was completely shrouded in darkness, and could no longer see his surroundings. Therefore, Fanxin could quickly approach his opponent and deliver a fatal blow.

After slashing the opponent twice, Fanxin ultimately didn't finish the job, because he felt there must be a reason why Tyrant Kuma had become like this. If he really killed it, it might cause trouble.

Therefore, he decided not to kill Tyrant Kuma. He wanted to see why Tyrant Kuma had become like this, hoping that he might be able to learn a secret.

After hesitating for a moment, Fanxin sheathed his diamond knife, then swung his fist, imbued with Haki, and slammed it down hard on the Tyrant Kuma. Under his ferocious attack, the Tyrant Kuma was sent flying by Fanxin's punch, soaring directly into the bay. Finally, the Tyrant Kuma crashed heavily into the ice, shattering it into pieces.

Now that Tyrant Kuma had traveled this far, Fanxin felt relieved. Even if he wanted to hunt him down, he probably wouldn't be able to catch up.

Moreover, there are many pirates where Tyrant Kuma landed. They are all under the command of the Whitebeard Pirates. Tyrant Kuma suddenly appeared there, they will definitely not show any mercy.

With them keeping him occupied, it would be extremely difficult for Tyrant Kuma to pursue him.

"Langyue, let's go," Fanxin called out.

The Tyrant Kuma was sent flying, and now that there was no one clinging to him, he could continue on his way.

Langyue nodded, immediately withdrew her abilities, and prepared to follow Fanxin.

However, at this moment, a figure slowly approached Fanxin and Langyue. It was a man wearing a tailcoat with a huge Black Blade on his back. This man was none other than the man known as Hawk-Eye Jora Mihawk.

Fanxin had met the other party once before. At that time, he was still very weak, and if the other party wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as turning his hand.

At that moment, when he saw Hawk-Eye, he had only one thought: to run away. If he didn't run away, he would die!

However, he was no longer afraid. If Hawk-Eye wanted to kill him, that was impossible. If he couldn't win, he could simply run away! So, when he saw Hawk-Eye walking towards him, he remained calm and showed no sign of nervousness.

Hawk-Eye quickly arrived in front of Fanxin.

Hawk-Eye looked at Fanxin, scrutinized Fanxin carefully, chuckled, and said, "It's been over a year, and you've become quite strong! Compared to back then, it's like night and day."

Back then, Fanxin was very weak and was extremely cautious around him. However, now Fanxin is very calm and shows no fear of him whatsoever.

"Thank you for the compliment, Hawk-Eye. Although I've become stronger, I feel I'm still a bit lacking when it comes to defeating you. But don't worry, I'll make up for that gap. Then, I'll challenge you and defeat you," Fanxin Xin chuckled and said.

He wanted to challenge Hawk-Eye, because he now also used a sword, and he wanted to know just how much of a difference there was between him and Hawk-Eye, who wielded the Black Blade.

However, he had been unable to find Hawk-Eye, so he had not been able to get his wish. Now that he had met him, he naturally wanted to challenge him to a duel.

"Heh, very good. I like strong people. You're very confident, which shows you're already quite strong. Even if you can't beat me, you won't lose to me easily." Hawk-Eye said, drawing his Black Blade and looking at Fanxin, "Why not fight today?"

Hawk-Eye is a master swordsman, known as the World's Greatest Swordsman. He's now at the top and feeling lonely, constantly seeking a worthy opponent. However, he's been unsuccessful so far. Now, seeing Fanxin's growth, he's itching for a challenge.

"Today? I'm afraid not today. I have to go ahead. Please, don't stop me, okay?" Fanxin Xin hesitated for a moment before speaking.

Hawk-Eye is very strong, and since he's not being controlled, he can unleash his full power. If Hawk-Eye tries to stop him, he'll be in big trouble. He won't be able to advance or retreat, which is not a good thing.

"If you beat me, you can go over; if you can't, you'll stay here," Hawk-Eye chuckled.

Upon hearing this, Fanxin felt somewhat annoyed and asked, "Are you sure you want to do this?"

If Hawk-Eye insists on doing so, he will have no choice but to take action and eliminate his opponent. Otherwise, he will be unable to advance at all.

"Indeed, after this, who knows when we'll meet again? I have no time to wait. Come on, young powerhouse!" Hawk-Eye shouted.

After saying that, he brandished his Black Blade and charged towards Fanxin, launching an attack without giving Fanxin any chance whatsoever.

Left with no other choice, Fanxin had to take action.

"Langyue, you go first, I'll follow soon," Fanxin called out. He couldn't get away now, and Langyue staying here was a waste of its fighting power. If it could go ahead, with its abilities, it could definitely help Straw Hat Boy.

"Alright, I'll go first. Be careful." Upon hearing this, Langyue didn't hesitate any longer and left immediately.

It was no match for Hawk-Eye. If it stayed, it would not only be unable to help, but would also become a burden to Fanxin. Therefore, it prepared to leave and hand over the battlefield entirely to Fanxin and Hawk-Eye.

"Alright, you can go now!" Fanxin nodded and said.

Without further hesitation, Langyue headed straight ahead.

After Langyue left, Fanxin looked at Hawk-Eye and said, "Alright, since you want to fight, I'll oblige. But you'd better watch out, or I won't be responsible if you get killed."

Although he knew it was pointless, he still said it, because you never know when something might happen! The gap between him and Hawk-Eye was getting smaller and smaller, and it wasn't impossible for him to injure Hawk-Eye.

He believes that if he works hard and seizes the right opportunities, he can still succeed.

Of course, Hawk-Eye is no pushover either; he's been famous for years, and it's impossible to hurt him easily. He has to be cautious; only then will he have a chance to wound his opponent.

Otherwise, if he didn't manage to hurt the other person but instead got hurt himself, that would be troublesome.

"Hmph, you've got quite the nerve, but I wonder if you actually have the ability?" Hawk-Eye chuckled and said.

"Whether it works or not, we'll know once we try," Fanxin said with a smile.

"As you wish." Hawk-Eye swung his long, Black Blade, which was impossible for an ordinary person to wield. However, for Hawk-Eye, this was a trivial matter. He swung the Black Blade without pausing for a moment, as if the Black Blade were his own hand.

Fanxin Hawk-Eye's attack, Fan Xin no longer hesitated. He wielded his twin swords and began to fight Hawk-Eye.

Both of them had a wide attack range, making it impossible for others to get close. Left with no other choice, the marines and pirates all left the area, clearing it out for them.

Fanxin wielded his twin swords, parrying and attacking simultaneously. He had already imbued his swords with Haki, worried that the Black Blade were too powerful and might break his swords. Although the possibility was small, it wasn't impossible!

The Black Blade is an incredibly powerful sword; it's one of the only twelve remaining Supreme Great Grade Sword Black Blade, and it's ranked number one. This clearly demonstrates its Black Blade strength.

His diamond knife was handcrafted, and although diamonds are incredibly hard, they are not without their weaknesses! If Black Blade were its nemesis, his diamond knife might be cut in two.

Although the Dragon-Slaying Sword was incredibly hard, he believed that every powerful weapon had its limits. If those limits were exceeded, even the most precious treasure could be destroyed.

Black Blade is a powerful blade, and Hawk-Eye is a formidable man; their combined strength is terrifying. He has to be careful.

Therefore, just in case, he had no choice but to wrap his Haki around the blades to reinforce their strength and resilience. In this way, even Hawk-Eye wouldn't be able to easily destroy his twin blades.

The two fought fiercely here, their swords flashing and sparks flying, a truly breathtaking sight.

Many people watched in disbelief, because Fanxin was a newcomer, yet he had managed to hold off Hawk-Eye for so long without being defeated; it was simply unbelievable.

Fanxin fought Hawk-Eye with unhurried precision, launching a Hawk-Eye attack whenever he saw an opening. However, Hawk-Eye, having cultivated Haki, easily dodged the attacks, causing Fanxin's attacks to miss many times, leaving him extremely frustrated.

Of course, he was only frustrated for a moment, because Hawk-Eye was a strong opponent, and killing him would not be an easy task.
