The Black Cat Pirates (3)

Seeing this, Fanxin was speechless.

Left with no other choice, he had to step in and help. He used the repulsive force ability given to him by the Little Fox to push all the pirates away, preventing them from crossing the slope and getting close to the village.

Under Fanxin's repeated attacks, all members of the Black Cat Pirates were once again driven back to the beach. Then, they all stared at Fanxin, their faces filled with extreme anger.

"Damn it, it's you again? Do you want to die?" Vice Captain Jango was furious when he saw that the attacker was Fanxin. Fanxin had caused trouble yesterday. He didn't expect that Fanxin would not stop there.

"Hmph, you think you can kill me? Do you think that's possible?" Fanxin Xin smiled dismissively and said.

Although Jango possesses hypnotic abilities, there's absolutely no problem with him as long as you don't stare at him too closely. As for his fighting skills, Fanxin doesn't take him seriously at all. Because no matter how skilled Jango is, he can't compare to those special agents.

He's already killed several secret agents, why would he be afraid of a mere Jango?

"You bastard, how dare you underestimate me?" Jango was furious upon hearing this.

"Tch, you're not all that great to begin with, why should I look down on you? Don't you think so?" Fanxin said with a smile.

Jango was furious upon hearing Fanxin's words; Fanxin clearly didn't care about him at all. In Fanxin's eyes, he was no different from a monkey. How could he tolerate this?

"Damn it, how dare you underestimate me like that? You're asking for death!" Jango furious. He immediately rallied his brothers and launched a fierce attack on Fanxin.

Fanxin Xin grinned, ignoring them, and let Ren Fang, the Little Black Cat, and Langyue take action.

Ren Fang, Little Black Cat, and Langyue leaped down the slope and rushed into the Black Cat Pirates, whereupon they unleashed their power. These pirates were on a completely different level from the special agents; if the special agents were adults, then these pirates were children.

Under the attack of Ren Fang, Little Black, and Langyue, the members of the Black Cat Pirates were scattered and lying on the ground, unable to move.

Ren Fang and her two companions showed no mercy, defeating the pirates and breaking one of their legs each. This rendered them unable to stand and fight anymore.

After finishing, Ren Fang clapped her hands and then swaggered back to Fanxin's side with Little Black and Langyue.

Fanxin looked at Jango, who was standing to the side with wide, incredulous eyes, and said, "Heh, this is your Black Cat Pirates? They're so weak!"

Upon hearing this, Jango was still furious, but he dared not say anything. He had no one left to command; all his fighting force, except for the Nyaban Brothers, had been injured and lay on the ground, unable to fight any longer.

His anger was useless; if he cursed Fanxin, he might very well suffer the consequences himself.

"Tch, all they know how to do is bully ordinary people, the Black Cat Pirates are really trash." Fanxin said disdainfully.

Upon hearing this, Jango stood there, trembling with rage. However, he could only endure it; these people were monsters, beyond his ability to deal with.

Fanxin Xin Jango; that guy posed no threat. The real threat was their captain, Kuro. With Kuro arriving, a major battle was inevitable. Of course, to him, Kuro was nothing special, as he was capable of dealing with him.

"Hey, Zoro, go for it! Let me see your skills." Fanxin turned his attention to the swordsman Zoro and said.

"Hehe, as you wish." Zoro chuckled and said.

"Hmm." Fanxin nodded, no longer disturbing Zoro. He watched intently, wanting to know how strong Zoro was.

Zoro is Three-Sword Style swordsman, so he always carries three swords. When fighting, he has a sword in each hand and a sword in his mouth. Fanxin was a little confused as to why Zoro had a sword in his mouth. He felt that the sword seemed a bit redundant, since he had never seen Zoro use it.

However, he didn't say much. Putting the sword in his mouth was Zoro's own decision, and it was none of Zoro's business.

Zoro's opponents are the Nyaban Brothers, both of whom are rather thin, but their clothes are too large and look somewhat out of place. Their weapons are Cat Claws.

The brothers' fighting style was both unseemly and despicable. They pretended to be weak at first, and then launched a fierce attack when Zoro was off guard. The Nyaban Brothers took both of Zoro 'Zoro swords and left them aside.

Zoro is Three-Sword Style swordsman, and losing two of his swords is a significant blow to him, greatly reducing his strength.

However, Zoro did not give up. He took the knife he was holding in his mouth and fought against the Nyaban Brothers.

The Nyaban Brothers stopped pretending, because Zoro already knew their trick and there was no need to continue. Zoro wouldn't fall for it again.

Zoro was having a tough time, mainly because he only had one sword, and the Nyaban Brothers were attacking him from both sides, making it impossible for him to defend himself.

Seeing Zoro in danger, Nami thought for a moment and immediately went to the two swords on the ground. She planned to give them to Zoro so that Zoro could unleash his full power.

While Nami was acting, Jango noticed Nami actions and immediately stepped forward, stomping on the two swords to prevent Nami from giving them to Zoro. He didn't want the Nyaban Brothers to be defeated.

Now, he only has his Nyaban Brothers left. If they are also defeated, he'll be all alone. What will he use to fight these monsters then?

Nami tried her best but couldn't lift the two swords, and she became furious. Taking advantage of this, Jango seized the Nami, pulled out a dagger, held it to Nami's neck, and shouted, "Roronoa Zoro, you stop right now, or I'll kill him!"

"And you, you can't lay a hand on her either, or I'll kill her." Jango then looked at Fanxin and said coldly. He had no other choice now, because he had to hurry to the village. The agreed time had already passed, and if he hadn't arrived by then, the captain would definitely be furious.

"Jango, you've got some nerve!" Fanxin said coldly.

"Hmph, if you dare to make a move, I will definitely kill her," Jango said with a snort.

"Really?" Fanxin smiled dismissively and said, "Go ahead and try. I want to see if your hands are faster than mine."

As he spoke, Fanxin aimed his left hand at the hand holding the dagger in Jango's hand, ready to attack at any moment. Meanwhile, his right hand drew the two swords into his own and tossed them to Zoro.

"Zoro, you just handle the Nyaban Brothers. Nami, you don't need to worry about her. I'll keep an eye on things here; nothing will happen," Fanxin said with a smile.

Zoro took his twin swords, glanced at Fanxin, nodded slightly, and said, "Alright, I'll leave Nami to you." Then, he ignored Nami and focused all his energy on fighting the Nyaban Brothers.

With three swords, Zoro's fighting power immediately soared. He wielded two swords, attacking from both sides simultaneously, preventing the Nyaban Brothers from gaining any advantage. Just as the Nyaban Brothers gathered together, preparing to launch a combined attack, Zoro seized the opportunity to unleash a powerful move, "Tiger Hunt," instantly wounding the Nyaban Brothers in just a few seconds.

The Nyaban Brothers were knocked to the ground and couldn't get up for a while. Each of them had a deep bloody gash on their body, inflicted by Zoro's sword.

Fanxin smiled and said, "Not bad at all, huh?"

"Hehe, really? I'm looking forward to a fight with you. Would you be so kind as to offer your guidance?" Zoro grinned and said.

"Sure, but I don't use a sword, so it doesn't seem to be of much help to you," Fanxin said. He preferred to fight with his fists and rarely used weapons.

"That's not a big problem," Zoro said with a smile.

"Alright then, after we've sorted things out here, we'll have a proper fight. Hehe, you'd better be prepared to lie on the ship for a few days," Fanxin said with a grin.

Upon hearing this, Zoro laughed and said, "Who's in bed is still uncertain."

"It's definitely you," Fanxin said with certainty.

In the distance, Jango saw Zoro and Fanxin chatting away, completely ignoring him, and he was furious. He roared, "Hey, you bastards, do you think I'm invisible?"

He was furious. Although he wasn't very strong, he held their hostages in his hands. Yet, even so, they still didn't take him seriously. It was utterly despicable.

"Oh, sorry, sorry, we were having so much fun chatting that I forgot for a moment." Fanxin Xin turned around with a grin, looked at Jango, and said, "Hey, weren't you going to kill someone? Why haven't you done it yet?"

Upon hearing this, Jango gritted his teeth and shouted, "It's you, you bastard, who's threatening me! How could I dare to lay a hand on you!" Jango was extremely frustrated and wanted to find a block of tofu to smash his head against and die. Although he had a hostage, he still couldn't make the decision.

If he kills Nami, he will surely die. Besides, it's hard to say whether he can even kill the girl.

"Oh, so do you want to kill him or not?" Fanxin asked.

"I..." Jango didn't know how to answer, because this was a difficult choice. If he didn't choose well, his life would be in danger.

"Alright, let him go. I won't harm you," Fan Xin said Fanxin saw Jango's troubled expression.

Upon hearing this, Jango hesitated for a moment, but finally let go. Now that all his combat power had been defeated, he alone could not turn the tide. His struggle would be futile.

After releasing Jango, Nami immediately took several steps back, worried that Fanxin might break her promise and attack him.

Fanxin didn't actually intend to attack Jango. As long as Zango didn't attack Nami, he wouldn't attack him. He had no interest in beating a weakling.

However, Jango was unlucky. While backing up, he accidentally stepped on Straw Hat Luffy, who was lying on the ground fast asleep, with one of his feet on the Straw Hat's head.

Luffy, Luffy had been fast asleep, felt a sharp pain on his face and immediately woke up. He opened his eyes and saw someone stepping on his face, which enraged him.

Luffy roared, grabbed Jango's foot, and immediately sprang up. Then, he shook Jango repeatedly, spinning him around countless times. Finally, Luffy threw Jango towards the village. Jango over twenty meters, crashed into a large tree, and was completely disoriented and temporarily unconscious.

"Hmm, what's going on? They're all down?" Straw Hat Luffy clapped his hands, glanced around, and found that all the enemies were lying there, screaming in pain. He was immediately puzzled.

"You were sleeping, how could you possibly know! Honestly." Zoro rolled his eyes, exasperated.

Fanxin was also speechless; this captain was far too unreliable. However, he didn't say much, because he was no longer Straw Hat Luffy's crew member, and no matter how unreliable Straw Hat Luffy was, he couldn't harm him.

"We've already defeated the enemy, so everything should be fine now!" Straw Hat Luffy said.

"Not yet, another opponent is coming soon. Luffy, you'll have to deal with him later! You've slept for so long, it's time to get to work," Fanxin said with a smile.

"There's one more, who is it?" Luffy asked in return.

Fanxin smiled but didn't say anything more.

A group of people waited there. Captain Kuro finally arrived, albeit late, much to their delight.

When Kuro saw his brothers lying scattered on the ground, covered in wounds, his face darkened. He glanced at them and shouted, "You did this, didn't you?"

"What do you think?" Fanxin asked.

"Very well, very well, you dare to attack my pirate crew, you've got some nerve." Captain Kuro drew his weapons, then put them on his hands. He looked at everyone and said, "Now, you'll face your punishment!"

"Let's deal with Straw Hat Luffy first. Once you've defeated him, you can come after us." Fanxin pointed at Luffy and said.

"Who I choose as my opponent is none of your business, understand? Stop talking nonsense, or I'll kill you," Kuro said coldly.

Fanxin gave a soft hum and didn't answer. He didn't want to argue with Kuro Luo, because it was pointless and he would only waste his breath. He didn't want to do something that was not worth the effort.

"Luffy, he's in your hands now," Fanxin said, then led Ren Fang and the others away, heading towards the village. As he passed Usopp, he waved to Usopp, signaling Usopp to follow.

Usopp hesitated for a moment, but eventually followed.

After following Fanxin for about ten meters, Usopp couldn't contain his curiosity and asked, "Hey, where are you taking me?"

"Kaya is coming, she's just ahead. Go protect her!" Fanxin said.

"Kaya, she..." Usopp hesitated upon hearing this, because Kaya hadn't trusted him at all yesterday, so what use would it be for him to go now?

"She already knows everything, she knows what Kuro is really like. Don't worry, she's realized her mistakes. She's probably here to apologize to you now," Fanxin said with a smile.

"Really?" Usopp asked excitedly.

"Hehe, you'll find out when you go," Fanxin said.

Upon hearing this, Usopp no longer hesitated and headed forward.

Fanxin sat cross-legged, blocking the way like a guardian deity. His purpose was to prevent Kuro from taking the opportunity to run to the village and kidnap Kaya.

Kuro is quite capable; compared to Jango, he's not even in the same league. Jango, holding hostages, can't do anything drastic, but Kuro might. Therefore, under no circumstances should Kuro be allowed to contact Kaya, or things will get really messy.

Fanxin and the others did not intervene, nor did Zoro and Nami. They all retreated to the side, leaving the battlefield to Kuro and Luffy.

Kuro glanced at them, scoffed, and looked at Luffy, saying, "They're all cowards. Looks like they want to use you as a scapegoat."

"Scapegoat? Hmph, I have no intention of that. My goal is to beat you to a pulp, it's that simple." Straw Hat Luffy replied bluntly.

"Hmph, do you think you're my match?" Kuro said with a disdainful look.

"This rambling is so annoying. If you want to fight, then fight! Stop with all this nonsense!" Straw Hat Luffy, annoyed. He was an impatient person and didn't want to waste time arguing with others.

Kuro frowned, looking at Luffy with some disgust, because he thought Luffy was too rude and impolite.

Straw Hat Luffy didn't care about any of that and launched an attack immediately.

"Rubber, rubber..." Luffy unleashed his Devil Fruit powers, stretching out his arms. He was eight or nine meters away from Kuro, and his fists instantly reached Kuro, landing a final blow on Kuro's face.

Kuro was sent flying.

Kuro looked at Luffy's outstretched hand and asked, "What's wrong with your hand?"

The reason he was defeated was because he didn't expect Luffy's arm to be able to extend. He thought Luffy had to be right next to him before he could launch an attack, so he was careless and suffered a small loss.

"Hehe, I ate the Gum-Gum Fruit, and that's it." Luffy grinned and said.

"Devil Fruit? They really exist. I understand. From now on, I won't be careless." Captain Kuro wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth and said coldly.

"So what if you know? The important thing is whether you can beat me! If you can't beat me, all your knowledge is useless," Straw Hat Luffy said dismissively.

"That's true. In that case, let's start with you!" Kuro stopped wasting words and launched a fierce counterattack.

Kuro stomped his feet on the ground repeatedly, and after a moment, he disappeared.

He didn't disappear; rather, he moved so fast that he was invisible to the naked eye. Therefore, it appeared as if he had vanished.

"This guy's speed is pretty fast too, I wonder what kind of technique he uses," Ren Fang said after taking a look.

Kuro's speed is still a bit slower than that of the agents, but it's absolutely foolproof against those slow-reacting guys.
