Law's Desperate Fight

"Oh, you've been recognized?"

Sirius chuckled softly.

"Because Sirius's reputation has already spread throughout the world!" Yamato a grin. "Of course, so have mine!"

"Haha, so aren't we pretty amazing now?"

"Of course!"

They chatted amongst themselves.

Buck swallowed hard, and after confirming that Sirius and the others had no intention of attacking, he shouted, "Listen up, everyone! Even if it means death! You absolutely cannot touch a single person in this town!"

Luo breathed a slight sigh of relief. He had to admit, no wonder he was the leader of the Black Wolf Clan! Such astonishing intimidation!

So--

"Bepo! Take good care of Uncle Wolff!"

Luo straightened up and gripped the knife in his hand tightly.

Bepo carried Shachi and ran over with his head down, and the pirates didn't even dare to stop them.

It was only then that Wolf noticed that neither Shachi nor Pekoms would open their eyes anymore, nor would they laugh as they used to.

"Luo--"

He looked up at Luo's retreating figure.

What kind of pain must this child be experiencing right now?

"Sir, Lord Sirius!"

Buck completely ignored Luo in front of him. He said loudly and respectfully, "I understand. I will leave here immediately and never come back!"

Sirius smiled. "This has nothing to do with me, but I think if you want to leave, you'll have to defeat the man in front of you."

"I won't give you that chance."

Luo raised the blade in his hand, his teeth almost grinding to powder. "I'll make you pay!"

"..."

Buck's chest heaved violently.

Then he finally nodded fiercely, "I understand. So, you brat, go die!!"

Since the situation is no longer in his control, he might as well just go for it!

The pirates' ferocity was fully unleashed at this moment!

"Kill this brat!"

Buck roared.

The pirates, who were already on the verge of collapse due to the arrival of Sirius and the others, finally found an outlet for their emotions and charged towards Law with howls.

"Here we go!"

Yamato a little excited, nudging Sirius in the ribs with his elbow. "Sirius, who do you think will win?"

Who knows?

Sirius also somewhat expectant.

Luo's strength is still very weak; he doesn't even know much about swordsmanship yet. After all, judging from what we just saw, even within the ROOM space, he still couldn't cut objects from a distance.

However, the power of the Op-Op Fruit is indeed very strong, and the outcome is still uncertain.

It all depends on how long Luo's stamina can last.

Facing the swarming pirates, Law waved his hand again, "Conducting Baton!"

The pirates stumbled and fell, their left foot tripping over their right, their right foot stepping on their left, and they all rolled around like tumbled gourds.

Sirius smiled slightly. "Very clever. It didn't require any big moves or much physical exertion, but it was very effective."

However, this trick works on small fry, but it's not as effective against larger ones.

Pochiano was like a locomotive, smashing through all the pirates in front of him, even stepping on them as he sped away.

"You brat, die!"

He raised his right hand high, intending to use a palm strike to send Luo flying.

Luo showed no fear, casually flicking a stone with his foot, sending it flying toward Pochiano's head.

The strongman was completely unafraid and slapped the stone away.

But in that instant, Luo had already closed in, standing directly in front of the warrior, brandishing his blade.

"You brat! You're asking for it!"

Pochiano laughed heartily. Judging from the speed at which he swung his sword, it was clear that the kid's strength was mediocre and he didn't know any swordsmanship at all.

He rammed right into it!

Such a feeble strike couldn't even penetrate the fat on his body!

But--

"Cut!"

Rub!

The blade flashed.

Pochiano's eyes widened as he found himself with his upper body flying through the air while his lower body was propelled forward.

Luo pressed his advantage, casually swinging his blade a few times, and Pochiano's body, which had been split in two, was sliced into pieces.

"Huh?"

Yamato was shocked. "Could this guy actually be a psychopathic killer?"

"Not an ordinary slash?"

Hiyori frowned slightly. "Is it Devil Fruit Ability?"

This is certainly not an ordinary slash.

The cutting power of the Op-Op Fruit is ridiculously strong; without Haki to resist it, even Uncle Kaido probably couldn't withstand it.

"Next, it's your turn!"

Luo breathed a soft sigh of relief and raised the blade, pointing it at Buck.

"You little brat! I'll kill you!!"

Seeing that Luo had knocked down both of his hands, Buck instantly flew into a rage, flung his hands out, and a large amount of liquid, like a long river, splashed directly at Luo.

Luo used the same trick again, flicking his finger slightly, "The Conducting Baton!"

Buck's liquor went out of control instantly, splashing directly onto the pirates who had just gotten up around him.

Before the pirates could even utter a word, they were doused with alcohol imbued with the Devil Fruit Ability, instantly turning them all into drunkards.

Then Luo quickened his pace and suddenly moved closer to Buck.

Upon witnessing Pochiano's tragic state, Buck's expression changed, and he abruptly stepped back to create distance.

At the same time, it releases more wine to block Luo.

But soon, he realized something was wrong.

The liquid he emitted was under the control of that kid, but once he left the hemispherical space created by the kid, this control ceased to exist.

"I see!"

Buck laughed smugly, "So your abilities are limited to that one ball, huh?"

Luo's expression was grave; it was indeed so.

All the abilities of the Op-Op Fruit must be performed inside the ROOM operating room.

To make matters worse, the ROOM cannot be moved.

"You're breathing really hard, kid? Well, I'll see."

Buck laughed heartily, "How long can you hold out, kid!"

He began to continuously release alcohol to attack Luo.

Luo could only dodge with difficulty, and when he could no longer avoid it, he used his ability to mix the wine.

Time passed slowly, Luo's breathing became rapid and his body began to tremble.

"Hahaha--"

Luo's breathing became increasingly heavy, and his dodging movements became more and more difficult.

His inaccurate dodge meant he would need to expend more energy to mix the liquor.

This would further exacerbate his physical exhaustion.

Before long, he was drenched in sweat and his face turned deathly pale.

His injuries from Doflamingo hadn't fully healed yet, Op-Op Fruit's use had taken an excessive toll on his stamina; he was now truly nearing the end of his life.

"Hahaha! Looks like you've run out of tricks!"

Buck laughed wildly, "Then prepare to die!"

With a flick of his wrists, the purple wine surged forth towards Luo Hao like a tidal wave.

There was no way to avoid it anymore. Luo gritted his teeth, swung his hands forcefully, and shouted, "Conducting Baton!"

The river of liquor, once inside the ROOM, turned sharply, engulfing the unfortunate pirates once more.

This river of wine lasted for a long time, only finally stopping after Luo's body began to sway.

Buck was also catching his breath; he had expended a lot of energy.

But his smile widened even more, because he had won!

The hemispherical space surrounding Luo finally disappeared, and Luo simply sat down on the ground, his face pale and panting heavily.

"Captain!"

Bepo gasped in surprise.

"Is that all there is to it?"

Jack frowned. "I thought he was going to do something amazing."

"Big brother, should we intervene?"

Page One turned around and asked Sirius.

No rush.

Sirius smirked. "Luo may be weak now, but he's definitely not an idiot."

"Hahahaha! Kid!! Looks like this is all you've got!"

Buck laughed heartily. He glanced almost imperceptibly at Sirius, and only after confirming that Sirius indeed showed no intention of making a move did he breathe a slight sigh of relief.

"Then, die!!"

"Stop! Buck!!"

Behind him, Wolf shakily got to his feet, roaring, "Stop!"

Buck simply ignored him, flicking his right hand so the liquor began to drip down his wrist.

However, Luo showed no sign of giving up. He swung the knife forcefully, sending it flying towards Buck.

But now, exhausted, the blade he threw was weak and powerless, Buck caught it.

"Goodbye, kid."

Buck casually flicked his right hand, and a large amount of liquor transformed into a spear, shooting towards Luo.

It seems Luo can no longer escape.

However, Luo smiled at this moment.

He raised his right hand, and a small circle of energy swirled around his palm.

"ROOM!!"

An even larger air shield than before formed, completely enveloping Buck.

"What?"

Buck was taken aback.

But what shocked him even more was yet to come.

Shambles!

Luo gave a soft shout.

An astonishing thing happened: Buck suddenly realized that the blade he was holding had vanished.

That kid appeared right in front of him! The wine poured out in vain.

Buck's eyes widened.

Luo clenched his fists, thumbs up, pointing them together. "This time, it's truly over!"

"Don't underestimate me, kid! You're not the only one with Devil Fruit User!"

Buck realized he'd been tricked. He roared, and his body began to melt. "I can dissolve more than just external objects!! Physical attacks are completely meaningless against me now!"

"That's a ruthless person!"

Sirius exclaimed in admiration.

This isn't elementalization; it's a genuine dissolution of itself.

However, it seems that the ability to deactivate can be restored; otherwise, this would truly be suicide.

Buck had turned into purple liquid and lunged at Luo, yelling, "Die, kid!"

Luo remained calm; he simply pushed his hands out, exclaiming, "Cardiopulmonary shock!"

A dazzling burst of electricity erupted between his fists and then spread to every corner of Buck's body.

"Ughhhhh!!"

The man screamed in agony, a scream that was utterly piercing.
