Battle (3)
Just as these people approached, alarm bells rang throughout the ship, and Fanxin's Soul Clone also issued a warning.
The Little Black Cat and the others immediately knew that an enemy was coming to attack.
Without saying a word, they immediately picked up their tools and went outside.
The Little Black Cat sat in the control room, steering the ship forward.
Wang Yan stood guard nearby.
Little Fox and Bingfeng led the team out to begin the battle.
Once outside, Bingfeng saw that there were only three people. He frowned slightly and said, "Hey, are you guys really that arrogant? Do you think three people can take us down?"
They are very strong; even Admiral leading troops might not be able to defeat them.
It's utterly ridiculous that these people actually wanted to kill them.
"Young lady, there aren't three of us, there are five. Two more are already below your boat, understand?" said the man with the leopard's head and human body.
"Oh, underneath the ship? Very good." Upon hearing this, Bingfeng couldn't help but smile.
Fanxin is right below; he's the strongest underwater assassin. These people actually dare to try and go under the ship? Aren't they just courting death?
She decided to ignore those two. Because when they encountered Fanxin, there was only one outcome: death.
Their mission was to eliminate these few people on the ship; once they were dealt with, they would be safe.
"What are you laughing at?" The leopard-headed, human-bodied man frowned slightly when he saw the smile on Bingfeng's lips and shouted in displeasure.
"It's my freedom to laugh, so what? Are you going to interfere? Aren't you being a bit too nosy?" Bingfeng said unhappily.
"Hmph, laugh all you want. You won't have a chance to laugh later anyway," the man said.
"Heh, you're quite confident. But let me give you a piece of advice: this isn't heaven, it's hell. I hope you can leave here alive," Bingfeng said.
They are all very capable; dealing with these few is a piece of cake for them. Their escape is virtually impossible.
That's why Bingfeng offered this advice.
"You should worry about yourself. Your life is about to end, understand?" the leopard-headed, human-bodied man sneered.
"Sigh, it seems you're going to remain stubborn. In that case, so be it." Bingfeng glanced at him and immediately sat down to the side.
She didn't do anything.
The Little Fox sat down as well, looking quite relaxed.
The three of them were utterly astonished. They were three very strong individuals, and their purpose in coming here was to kill them. But now, these women were ignoring them completely. What was going on?
"Hey, are you guys going to fight or not?" The lion-headed, human-bodied man was stunned, completely confused about the situation.
"Hehe, let's fight! But you'll have to get past her first," Bingfeng said, pointing to Qiangwei beside him.
They had come out earlier, and because it was a large group of Big Mom, they seemed a little nervous. However, after they came out, they only found three people, so she wasn't worried anymore.
There are only three people, and they're already on the ship. This is exactly where Qiangwei's battlefield lies.
Qiangwei has turned the entire ship into her own battlefield—a mobile battlefield where she can engage in combat whenever an intruder steps in.
Fanxin allowed the other party to do this because she was thinking of the other party's well-being. It's too troublesome for Qiangwei to fight outside, requiring her to set up the battlefield on the spot. If there isn't enough time, something could easily go wrong.
On the ship, she had nothing to worry about. The battlefield had already been set up, and Qiangwei only needed to take action. She didn't need to spend any extra time setting up the battlefield.
"Oh, just a woman. She's nothing to us," the lion-headed, human-bodied man said dismissively.
"Really?" Bingfeng said upon hearing this, "Then that's fine. You guys take care of her. Good luck!"
With that, Bingfeng immediately led everyone into the cabin, not intending to join in the fun there.
Because this is the battlefield of the Qiangwei, if you're not careful, you could easily fall into their attack range.
She didn't want to suffer this loss.
The others followed suit, for they all understood what Qiangwei had planned on the ship.
However, for safety's sake, the Little Fox was left behind. Although Qiangwei's abilities were formidable, she wasn't good at close combat; if something really happened to her, it would be troublesome.
The Little Fox is formidable in both close-quarters and ranged combat, excelling in both offense and defense. Its presence ensures absolute safety.
"Hehe, let's go back and watch Qiangwei tease them," Bingfeng chuckled and said.
With weapons in hand and smiles on their faces, the group entered the cabin.
The three men looked puzzled, but after a moment of silence, they stopped thinking about it. They were here to destroy everything. Since her was their first opponent, they would kill her first, then go and deal with the others; there was no need to worry about anything else.
"Young lady, since you want to die, we'll grant your wish. Heh heh, don't blame us, you asked for it." The leopard-headed, human-bodied man chuckled and said.
"Alright, as long as you can kill me, I won't complain at all," Qiangwei said with a smile.
She appeared relaxed, showing no sign of being troubled by facing three opponents.
Seeing the woman's composure, the three men immediately became wary, fearing that she was quite formidable.
Once they were ready, the three of them didn't hesitate any longer and rushed towards Qiangwei, wanting to finish Qiangwei off quickly.
"Hehe, you're really impatient. Since that's the case, then I'll grant your wish." Qiangwei smiled calmly, looking at the Little Fox, and said, "You're in charge of my safety now. You must protect me well, okay?"
She said this because she was worried about something unexpected happening. She wasn't very good at close combat, and if she were attacked, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Don't worry, they can't get close to you. You can fight as you please," the Little Fox nodded, speaking with great confidence.
With it nearby, those guys trying to ambush Qiangwei are just dreaming.
"Then I'll have to trouble you." Qiangwei nodded, then said no more and immediately used her abilities.
She made a gesture, and a moment later, a light suddenly shone around the deck, enveloping the area.
The three men were rushing towards them when they were hit by the light, and their bodies shrank visibly.
They, who were originally tall and strong, became tiny people the size of a fingertip in the next moment.
The three were horrified; this ability was terrifying. Now, they had been reduced to grotesque figures, and if the other party wanted to crush them, it would be as easy as turning their hand.
They couldn't remain calm. If things continued like this, they wouldn't even be able to deal with the woman, let alone survive.
"What kind of ability is this?" the leopard-headed, human-bodied man roared.
"Hehe, I won't tell you that. Next, I'm going to unleash divine punishment, so you'd better hold on." Qiangwei smiled calmly and immediately took out a cylinder made of diamond, fixing the three people in place in one area.
The cylinder was several meters tall, while the three men were only a few centimeters tall. Getting out of it would be quite difficult.
However, Qiangwei wouldn't show them any mercy; these girls were there specifically to kill them. If they weren't strong enough, they would surely be slaughtered.
Now that the tables have turned, they naturally won't let each other off easily.
"Alright, the Heavenly Fire is coming, watch out!" Qiangwei lit a torch and threw it down from the top of the cylinder.
Soon after, flames roared inside the cylinder, forcing the people to flee towards the edge.
However, Qiangwei didn't let them off the hook. She started pouring oil into the fire, making it burn even bigger.
The three men fled for their lives, furious. If things continued like this, they were sure to suffer the consequences.
"This can't go on; we must fight back," said the man with the leopard's head and human body.
"How should we retaliate?" the lion-headed, human-bodied man asked.
"They need to break through this and restore their bodies. Only then can we crush them," said the leopard-headed, human-bodied man.
If things continue like this, they will be ruined. Therefore, they must fight back; this is the best course of action.
"But it's so high, how are we going to climb up?" the lion-headed, human-bodied man said.
These cylindrical objects, several meters tall, were not tall at all to them before; they wouldn't even reach their knees. However, now that their bodies have shrunk, their entire senses are different.
Now they are very frustrated and don't know what to do.
"Climb up step by step first, and once we're at the top, we can use Geppo to escape," said the leopard-headed, human-bodied man.
"Alright, since we have no other choice, we'll just have to take a gamble," said the last man in black.
He kept talking, because he was a man of few words and rarely interested in anything other than fighting.
Now, Qiangwei's abilities have ignited his fighting spirit. Therefore, he is prepared to give it his all.
"Go." Without another word, the three of them immediately headed upwards.
Soon after, they reached the halfway point of the mountain. However, to their great dismay, Qiangwei started pouring water into the hillside.
This is seawater. The water quickly submerged halfway up the mountain and didn't stop. The water kept rising and soon filled the entire center of the cylinder.
Then, Qiangwei covered the top of the cylinder. Once she was done, she didn't bother with it anymore.
"If this continues, they'll die," the Little Fox said.
"Do you pity them? Let me tell you, if we are not strong, we will be the ones who die in the end," Qiangwei said with a cold snort.
She was absolutely right. In this New World, being kind to others is being cruel to yourself.
Of course, things aren't always absolute. However, most of the time, you can't be merciful, because if you let the other person go, they'll turn into a wolf and tear your throat apart.
"I don't care about their lives, but I don't understand why Big Mom would send these weaklings here. Isn't that just sending them to their deaths?" the Little Fox said.
"Hehe, I don't know about that. Anyway, in an hour, we'll throw these guys out. By then, they'll probably all be dead," Qiangwei said.
They've been trapped in this sealed container for hours; they're likely doomed to die.
Therefore, the fate of these people was already sealed; they were doomed to die.
"Okay, go ahead, I'll stay here and watch over things," the Little Fox said.
No matter what abilities the people inside have, with it guarding the place, everything will be fine.
Qiangwei nodded, immediately brought out a reclining chair, lay down on it, and began to rest leisurely.
Inside the cylinder.
The three men were struggling desperately, but unfortunately, the passageway was sealed off, and they couldn't even get a sip of oxygen.
The most troublesome thing is that they are also demon ability users. If they come into contact with seawater, their bodies will become weak and powerless, and they will become unable to swim.
In this way, staying here would only lead to their death.
As time went on, their breathing and pulse grew weaker and weaker, until finally they disappeared completely.
The three men showed no further signs of struggle.
However, Qiangwei still didn't come over to release the three of them.
An hour later, the Little Fox arrived and immediately dumped the three people inside the cylinder into the sea. They must be dead by now, given how much time had passed. Even if they weren't, they wouldn't be able to fight for a while. Therefore, they were even less worried.
The Little Fox threw the three people into the sea and then went back.
The three men emerged from the sea, their bodies instantly growing larger. Unfortunately, they were no longer breathing, having been submerged for an hour.
They are Devil Fruit User; no matter how powerful they are, it's almost impossible for them to survive inside.
Now, even if someone were to treat him, it would probably be impossible for him to survive.
The problems on the ship are solved. Now there's only one problem left: the two Fish-Man underneath the ship.
They can now walk freely on the seabed, which is a big problem. However, Fanxin is also below the ship, so this problem is not a problem for Fanxin at all.
Beneath the ship, Fanxin was already engaged in battle with two Fish-Man. Fanxin looked at the two men, his smile grew wider.
Fish-Man are indeed very comfortable in the water; they can avoid human attacks and launch attacks directly from the seabed.
If you can't fight at sea, that's definitely a problem.
However, Fanxin is an amphibious creature, and fighting in the water is one of her strengths. He has no need to worry about these two joining forces to attack him.
"Hehe, you didn't expect to find me guarding this place at the bottom of the sea, did you? But since you're here, why don't you stay?" Fanxin Xin chuckled and said.
