Blackbeard Arrives (1)

"Hmph, so what if you don't hand it over? Do you think you can escape from here?" Kizaru said coldly.

He had been chasing the Straw Hat Boy, but he got distracted by other things and had to give up halfway through.

Now, no one can stop him. He can now completely focus on dealing with the Straw Hat Boy. Therefore, no matter where Jinbe takes the Straw Hat Boy, he will be able to arrive in time and kill him.

"Whether we can escape or not is too early to say," Jinbe said. "However, as long as I have a breath left, I will absolutely not allow you to kill him."

"In that case, there's no need for me to waste my breath on you." Kizaru sighed helplessly upon hearing this.

The reason he talked so much with Jinbe was because Jinbe was Fish-Man! Once he was in the sea, he couldn't do anything to him. He couldn't possibly go into the sea to chase after him. So, he spoke to Jinbe, trying to persuade him to give up the struggle.

However, his words clearly had no effect; Jinbe was extremely adamant. He would rather die than abandon the Straw Hat Boy. Therefore, Jinbe had no choice but to resort to ruthless measures against Straw Hat Boy and Jinbe. Although he could do this, there was still a chance of failure.

Jinbe is Shichibukai, so he's already quite strong. If he fights with all his might, even if he manages to defeat him quickly, it won't be an easy task.

If he runs into the sea, he can only look on helplessly at the vast ocean.

"Hmph, come on, let this old man have a go with you," Jinbe shouted.

"In that case, I'll send you to the Western Paradise!" Kizaru said, nodding.

After finishing his sentence, Kizaru stopped wasting time and Jinbe, Sea Strait.

Jinbe, Knight of the Sea, was about to make a move, but just then, a huge wall of magma suddenly appeared, blocking his way and stopping the lasers.

Jinbe was taken aback for a moment, but when he saw that it was Wang Yan, an acquaintance, he was relieved.

"Why are you here?" Jinbe asked, puzzled.

"We're clearing the warships here to make way for the Whitebeard Pirates. I happened to see this, so I came over. You'd better hurry up and leave! I'll hold off Kizaru here," Wang Yan shouted immediately.

Jinbe was wounded, and he had another unconscious wounded soldier under his command. They were simply no match for Admiral. Their fate was sealed: death.

She was uninjured and possessed strong combat abilities. Staying behind to cover the retreat was the most suitable option for her.

"Okay, thank you." Jinbe nodded, not insisting. He was indeed injured. If he stayed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

After saying that, he immediately nodded and left.

He disappeared in a short while.

Wang Yan removed the magma wall and looked at Kizaru not far away. At this moment, Kizaru's expression was extremely ugly, because another unexpected obstacle had appeared out of nowhere and interrupted his plans.

"Who are you? Why are you blocking my way?" Kizaru didn't recognize Wang Yan because he had never fought Wang Yan before.

At the same time, Wang Yan was not wanted. Therefore, Kizaru did not know who Wang Yan was.

"I'm a member of the Heavenly Soul Pirates, and our captain is Fanxin, the man who's stopping Akainu right now." Wang Yan chuckled and said, "How about it? Not bad, right?"

"Oh, so you're a member of the Fanxin crew! Why are you stopping me? Do you also want to help Straw Hat Boy? Why is that?" Kizaru asked, puzzled.

"The captain's orders are to bring Straw Hat Boy away alive. I'm just following orders," Wang Yan said calmly.

"I see! It seems there's nothing more to discuss between us," Kizaru said upon hearing this.

This woman was Fanxin's subordinate, so naturally she would act according to Fanxin orders. He couldn't reason with her much; she wouldn't easily change her mind. So, he might as well say nothing and start fighting directly.

"I don't want to waste words with you. Come on! Let me see just how powerful Admiral really is!" Wang Yan shouted.

She had always wanted to fight the Admiral, but Fanxin wouldn't allow it because the Admiral was too strong, Fanxin was worried that they would get hurt.

Now, she has no choice but to fight. If she backs down now, Straw Hat Boy will be in danger. So, she has no choice but to step forward and fight Kizaru.

"Then I'll grant your wish!" Kizaru said, kicking Wang Yan with a huge bare foot. It approached Wang Yan with lightning speed and then kicked towards Wang Yan's chest.

Wang Yan gave a light snort, then instantly turned into magma and disappeared. A moment later, she was beside Kizaru. She had come from underground, melting everything beneath the surface into billowing magma.

Therefore, she can move around Kizaru freely.

After emerging from underground, Wang Yan created countless magma projectiles and attacked Kizaru.

Kizaru immediately dodged, because he sensed a dangerous aura emanating from the magma projectiles; clearly, these magma projectiles could harm him.

"Hehe, Fanxin is surrounded by so many talented people! Not only has he learned Haki, but you have too," Kizaru chuckled and said.

He possesses Logia Devil Fruit, and the only beings who can sense danger are those who have mastered Haki or possess Seastone. However, Wang Yan currently does not have Seastone. Therefore, there is only one possibility: she has also mastered Haki.

"Hmph, our captain's got the luck, there's nothing we can do about it." Wang Yan chuckled and said, "Kizaru, you'd better stay here. I don't want to fight you to the death. We've achieved our goal here and don't want to continue this entanglement. If you insist on causing trouble, you'll bear the consequences."

Their purpose in coming here was to rescue Ace, and they succeeded. Although Ace is dead, it wasn't their fault. It was simply that they were too weak to withstand Akainu's attacks.

They just wanted to leave and didn't want to do anything else. However, if Kizaru ignored their advice and still wanted to attack them, she would definitely not be polite.

"Hmph, are you ordering me around?" Kizaru said coldly.

"I guess so! I hope you can keep your word," Wang Yan said with a grin.

"Hmph, that's impossible. This is our Navy territory. You're causing trouble here, and we haven't even bothered you yet. How dare you order me around? Do you think that's possible?" Kizaru shouted unhappily. He felt that Wang Yan was overstepping his bounds and was very displeased.

"I think it's possible," Wang Yan said matter-of-factly.

"Bullshit," Kizaru snapped, annoyed.

"Really? I don't think so," Wang Yan said hesitantly.

Upon hearing this, Kizaru said no more. He realized that Wang Yan was deliberately stalling for time. If he continued to dawdle like this, time would simply slip away.

So, he stopped wasting words and launched his attack.

He unleashed his power and began a frenzied attack on Wang Yan, determined to kill Wang Yan as quickly as possible.

However, although Wang Yan was going to fight the Admiral, she never intended to fight Admiral to the death. She had no grudge against the Admiral, and there was no need to fight to that extent.

So she immediately hid underground.

Once Kizaru had vented his anger, she emerged from underground again and attacked Kizaru.

She didn't directly confront Kizaru; she simply wanted to stall him. By keeping Kizaru occupied, she gave others time to escape.

Kizaru was furious. This woman was too troublesome. When he wanted to fight, she wouldn't take the hits. When he didn't want to fight, she would suddenly appear and launch a sneak attack, leaving him in a dilemma.

Left with no other choice, he flew into the sky and left the area. He began his pursuit of the Straw Hat Boy from the air.

Seeing Wang Yan fly away, Wang Kizaru became furious. She shouted towards the direction of the Little Fox, "Little Fox, stop Kizaru! He's coming after us!"

She couldn't fly anymore, so she couldn't catch up with Kizaru. Kizaru had already gone over there. She had no choice but to let the Little Fox take care of her.

Although the Little Fox can't fly, it can launch ranged attacks. If it were to make a move, it could definitely stop Kizaru.

"Don't worry!" the Little Fox standing on the mast shouted back.

After receiving a response from the Little Fox, Wang Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she went about her own business.

Kizaru Luffy to Jinbe's head. At that moment, Jinbe was preparing to board the ship. Seeing Kizaru approaching, his expression changed slightly. Kizaru's persistence posed a great threat to him.

"Never mind that, let's go!" the Little Fox shouted. It was scanning its surroundings, and it could clearly see Kizaru approaching.

It is not afraid of Kizaru's attacks because Kizaru is within its attack range. It can counterattack Kizaru at any time.

Upon hearing Jinbe, Jinbe nodded slightly and then ignored Kizaru. He immediately grabbed Straw Hat Boy and rushed towards the ship.

Seeing this, Kizaru prepared to launch an attack.

However, at that moment, the Little Fox made its move. It used its gravity to pull Kizaru towards it, preventing him from aiming at Jinbe.

Kizaru's expression changed slightly, and he immediately transformed into a photon and ran elsewhere. He didn't know what the Little Fox's attack was. However, he didn't want to be sucked away; that attack was too strange.

Once they reached a distance, Kizaru prepared to attack again. This time, the Little Fox unleashed a powerful repulsive force, sending Kizaru flying several meters away.

Kizaru's face was very gloomy. The Little Fox had been targeting him one after another, which made him very unhappy.

He stopped watching Jinbe and the Straw Hat Boy, because he knew the Little Fox was protecting them, and his chances of success were slim.

Therefore, he finally turned his attention entirely to the Little Fox. The reason for this was that if he wanted to successfully deal with Jinbe and the Straw Hat Boy, he had to get rid of this obstacle— the Little Fox. It was his only feasible method. Otherwise, he simply couldn't succeed.
