Father and Son
The navy, guards, and overseers surrounding Sirius were already crying out in alarm.
"Black Wolf Sirius! How could such a monster appear here!"
Many years ago, when Sirius was still a child, he was already famous throughout the world.
Now, his title Emperor Candidate has become increasingly prominent; he is universally recognized as a monster.
What does this mean?
This means that simply by standing there, he had already dealt a devastating blow to the enemy's morale.
The surrounding enemies began to flee in terror, with the one closest to him even collapsing to the ground in a look of utter horror.
"What a joke! The Sirius Pirates and the Revolutionary Army have joined forces!"
"How could this happen!"
They simply couldn't understand why pirates would join forces with the Revolutionary Army! It was a completely unrelated relationship!
Even more surprising were the overseers who had been in contact with Sirius in the past few days.
"Is Sleus the same as Sirius?"
The stunned foremen only now realized that the guy who had been starving them these past few days was actually that infamous pirate!
It turns out the names were just switched!
It seems full of flaws, but who could have imagined it when actually encountering it?
A monster is right next to me!
Luckily, I didn't cause them any trouble before, otherwise I probably wouldn't even have any ashes left by now.
"Yes, this is truly an unexpected situation."
Vulture sighed, "Could you enlighten me, Mr. Sirius? Why are you cooperating with the Revolutionary Army? I remember you just rejected the government's invitation to Shichibukai not long ago, right?"
"Compared to the government, they chose the Revolutionary Army, who are criminals. Is this some kind of mutual respect among sinners?"
Don't misunderstand.
Sirius noticed that the blood from the wound on the Vulture's right arm had stopped flowing, and the wound seemed to have healed.
Or it might not be a recovery, but rather the wound being temporarily suppressed through some means, such as Seimei Kikan.
While observing, Sirius smiled and said, "I have no interest in the feud between your two families. I'm just here to take you down."
"I see?"
The Vulture shook its head, slowly removing its blood-stained robe, and said with some distress, "A man of such pettiness, Mr. Black Wolf, have I overestimated you?"
"That's up to you. I'm not interested in your opinion."
Sirius raised his black greatsword, its blade pointed at the Vulture. "You only need to know one thing,"
"Your life ends here."
"But I'm not planning to stop here yet."
The Vulture laughed heartily, "I'm going to be the man who becomes the Strongest Shield."
"Do it!"
He roared.
Almost instantly, four white figures sprang up from the darkness and pounced on Sirius from different directions.
Sirius was not surprised at all.
Although his Observation Haki scan hadn't found the Vulture, he was fully aware of their existence.
With a casual flick of his sword, Sirius unleashed a magnificent black Sword Wave that instantly swallowed the two white-robed figures to his left before soaring into the sky and disappearing into the night.
As for the two on the right...
"Namuji Hyoga!"
A white storm surged upwards, adding an even more captivating touch of white to the figure in white robes.
However, all they could do was fall in vain, crashing to the ground and shattering into several pieces.
"These guys are so weak!"
On the other side, Yamato let out a disdainful snort.
It is indeed very weak.
These four guys are also CP0 members, but their strength is nowhere near that of Vulture, let alone the two underlings he brought last time. The gap between them is insurmountable.
They should just be ordinary CP0 members.
Vulture was well aware of the situation, and he didn't expect his men to be able to take down Sirius.
In fact, these guys have already proven their worth.
"Well then, see you next time, Mr. Black Wolf."
Without hesitation.
Using his subordinates as cover, the guy leaped into the air and was about to escape.
"Ah! They got away!"
Yamato cried out in surprise, "They ran away without hesitation!"
That's quite decisive.
He has absolutely no intention of continuing the fight; what a coward.
Sirius couldn't help but sigh; he had never encountered such an opponent before.
However, this time is different from the last.
Call--
A sudden gust of wind rose in the night sky.
It was an exceptionally powerful gale; even in the past, Sirius had never experienced such a storm in the New World!
People on the bridge were so weak they could barely stand, and the situation was even more extreme in the sky, where the sharp wind was unusually piercing.
Then the Vulture were in trouble.
With the howling winds, the airflow became extremely unstable, making it impossible to use Geppo at this point.
He was swept away by the strong wind.
Even more astonishingly, the wind suddenly shifted, abruptly turning downwards from its state of sweeping across the sky.
Boom!
The Vulture, swept up by the wind, crashed heavily onto the bridge, smashing a large hole in the sturdy surface.
Sirius's lips curled into a smile. "So, as I said, the situation is different now."
From inside the hole, the Vulture leaped up and landed on the bridge. He looked up at the night sky, his voice so somber it seemed it could squeeze out two pounds of water.
"This ability! Dragon!"
The wind in the sky suddenly softened, and a human figure materialized in the air, slowly descending.
"Long time no see, Vulture."
Dragon landed on the roof of a house and said calmly.
"This is truly something— Revolutionary Army leader and a candidate for Pirate Emperor!"
The Vulture sighed helplessly, "You're actually willing to cooperate with pirates for me, Dragon? You've fallen."
"Compared to pirates like Sirius, it's clearly the government that's fallen," Dragon said indifferently.
"Haha, Mr. Black Wolf,"
The Vulture suddenly laughed and looked at Sirius, "You think you're the only ones with reinforcements?"
Sirius paused for a moment, then turned to look beyond the bridge and shouted, "Something extraordinary is coming!"
Dragon's expression instantly turned serious; the wind had already told him.
The next moment, a figure was launched into the air from the bridge and then crashed heavily onto the roof of a stone house, facing off against Dragon almost from the left and right.
Upon seeing the newcomer, Sirius raised an eyebrow. What a coincidence!
Dragon frowned as well. What a coincidence!
"Dragon! You brat!!" the newcomer glared at Dragon and roared, "Don't you even know to greet me?"
Dragon pursed his lips. "Vice Admiral Garp— "
"Vice Admiral Garp?"
The old man flew into a rage, "Is this how you talk to your father, you bastard?"
The entire room fell silent.
"Eh--!!!"
