Paper Art Unmatched, Iron Body Defeats the Enemy

"This guy..."

"Madman!"

"What exactly is he trying to do—"

The entire tavern seemed frozen in place, staring dumbfounded at the smiling Roman. How arrogant his calm words had been! Compared to that, Bellamy and his friends' actions of smashing bottles and slapping their heads...

It appears low-class and childish.

Rub,

He pulled out a dagger and stabbed Roman, who had his back to him! Although Bellamy's face was full of madness and anger, he was destined to have no way to vent his frustration.

Brush--

Roman merely stepped aside the instant he made his move, the sharp dagger grazing his clothes. — Just like before, so close yet so far! Yet it felt like an insurmountable chasm.

"Don't get excited," Roman Guotou to look at Bellamy. He was smiling, but his unwavering gaze made the 'big shot' with a bounty of 55 million Beli freeze!

"You'll damage the tavern if you stay here. Let's talk outside."

As Roman walked straight toward the gate, the Bellamy Pirates' executives, who had been staring in disbelief, snapped out of their shock and their eyes gradually turned dangerous and crazed as they watched Roman slowly approach!

Should we wait until we get out to fight?

Dream on!

How could pirates possibly follow any rules?

Brush,

A hooded cadre suddenly drew his pistol, pointing the muzzle at Roman's temple with the gun at point-blank range! Then, without hesitation, he pulled the trigger.

Bang!

Blood splattered, and the man shot in the head fell backward!

Of course, it was a pirate opposite the fallen hooded officer. As for Roman—

"What's going on!"

Am I seeing things?

"This is impossible..."

Roman continued walking towards the door, each step precise as if measured. The hooded officer behind him, who had fired the shot, was now questioning his very existence. His marksmanship, supposedly capable of shooting down three birds in a second, had actually missed at point-blank range?

"Let me!"

First Mate, Sarkis "Big Saber," suddenly stood up, his oddly shaped kuknife flashing silver as he slashed at Roman! He seemed to have some skill. But—

Brush,

Faced with this dangerous attack, Roman merely shifted slightly to the side. As if rehearsed a thousand times, the oddly shaped scimitar grazed Roman's clothes, almost causing this 'important figure' in a white fur coat to stumble.

?

"The opponent is Devil Fruit user, everyone attack together!"

Someone shouted something, and although Roman was able to dodge unharmed not because of his Devil Fruit ability but because of his Observation Haki, but:

He really is a Devil Fruit user, which can be considered a lucky accident.

Swipe, swipe, swipe

It must be said that Bellamy's group of 'new era' pirate officers are quite capable; a terrifying fierce light burst forth from their eyes! Their muscles bulged, and their bones cracked and popped! Several long swords and short swords intertwined to form an impenetrable net of blades, enveloping Roman.

Sharp weapons are everywhere—in front, behind, left, and right! Faced with such a perilous situation—

Roman actually put his hands in his pockets!

??!!

He shifted to the side, moved to the right, shrank his chest and abdomen, his body instantly becoming almost paper-thin. Two long swords swept past Roman's chest and back, and Roman's mere feint to the side caused one of the attackers to instinctively swing his weapon! Then:

Puff!

In a flash, the attacker's weapon struck his 'comrade'.

Roman then shifted his body slightly, as a rapier came flying from his right! But as Roman dodged with the supple grace of paper, the rapier, having lost its target, plunged into the chest of the swordsman who had just accidentally injured his comrade, and a patch of crimson blood instantly began to spread.

"What kind of ability is this??"

"A deflected attack? Or an illusion..."

"It's sorcery—"

As Roman walked by with his hands in his pockets, several Bellamy Pirates officers who had accidentally injured each other followed behind! The other pirates instinctively stepped back, looking as if they had seen a ghost.

Kami-e,

The first of the "Six Powers" is a defensive technique that dissipates all the body's strength. By changing the airflow generated by the opponent's movements, the body can become as thin as paper, allowing for easy and free control of the body. Attacks aimed at oneself can be dodged at the last second.

Roman's 'Paper-Paper Fruit' goes a step further, directly granting him the ability to Roman 'Paper Person'. Combined with Roman Awakening Observation Haki, this makes him even more formidable.

It is entirely possible to use leverage to evade, follow the trend, and enter gaps with no thickness, achieving the highest evasion efficiency with minimal consumption, and even inducing the enemy to kill each other while dodging! As long as the individual combat strength of the enemy does not exceed a certain level, then even if surrounded by thousands of troops, it is entirely possible to hold out for a long time.

But:

To be honest, it's just a great skill for crushing weaker opponents, but it's good for boosting one's image. Like now—

Clang,

The weapon in his hand fell to the floor, and a member of the Bellamy Pirates staggered backward, his face twitching, and unconscious trembling sounds came from his mouth.

"The monster... is completely unbeatable—"

Snap,

A hand suddenly covered his face, interrupting his cowardly words, and then a tremendous force grabbed him and slammed him hard onto the floor!

Click!

The 'cadre' whose head had suddenly plunged into the ground was still twitching, but judging from the spreading crimson and the stench of blood, he was probably already dead. —Not everyone is like the Straw Hat crew, casually smashing their heads through decks as a daily routine.

"You've got guts!!"

Bellamy, whose hands were covered in red and white marks, stood up and looked at Roman, who had walked to the store entrance with his back to him.

"I'm going to grind you into mincemeat and use your skin to make a pirate flag!"

Faced with the threat coming from behind, Roman didn't even bother to turn his head.

"If you can do it,"

Boom!

Snap snap snap—

The hotel doors shattered with a crash, and a dark figure flew out! It smashed the floor opposite the hotel, sending shards of earth flying. Only after leaving a scratch in the ground did the startled pirates realize what it was.

"Bellamy?"

"How could he—"

"Hey, he looks a bit disheveled..."

"Could it be that we've encountered a master?"

"Hehehe, this is going to be good~~~"

The sound in his ear fueled Bellamy's rage even more. He crouched down, his bloodshot eyes fixed on the tavern door he had smashed open, like a snarling hyena.

"I already told you, don't vandalize public property."

Roman slowly emerged from the dilapidated gate, looking at Bellamy, who was hunched over on the street ahead. "I hope you've brought enough money, otherwise—"

"I'll kill you!"

"Spring Sniper!"

Bellamy's move involves first turning his lower legs into springs, then pressing those springs into the ground to store a large amount of elastic potential energy in his feet, and then releasing that energy to generate speed and power as he propels himself toward his opponent!

The high-speed projectile can blast opponents away and obliterate them like a cannonball. The more energy stored, the greater the power of the shot. —That's right, Bellamy is completely unlike a typical 'pirate' who introduces their Devil Fruit ability before a battle; he's clearly lost his mind from rage.

With a loud bang, Bellamy hurtled towards Roman like Human Cannonball! But naturally:

Crash!

As Roman dodged to the side, Bellamy suddenly tumbled headfirst into the second floor of the nearby tavern, causing Roman to shake his head in disappointment.

Another weakling Devil Fruit user.

Speaking of which, Bellamy is probably the only one who could develop his Devil Fruit ability so poorly.

His only ability is to turn his legs into springs, which is enough to make his fellow Devil Fruit users, who have developed all sorts of bizarre and outlandish feats, laugh themselves to death.

"If you've got guts, don't hide, you coward!"

Call out--

Bellamy, like a human cannonball, shot out from the ruins of the second floor of the tavern, charging towards Roman at high speed, but predictably missed again! He crashed into the street beside him, but this time:

Collapse,

He suddenly turned and landed on his feet, his springy calves compressing and gathering momentum on the street. Then Benelli suddenly flew towards the clock tower next to him, and once again slammed his foot on it to compress and gain momentum.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

This time, Bellamy didn't attack immediately. Instead, he bounced back and forth between the surrounding buildings, each bounce accumulating more kinetic energy, getting faster and faster! It was like a dense barrage of artillery shells bombarding Roman! But:

"It's useless."

Such a powerful, howling attack is simply laughable in the face of 'Kami-e'!

Roman stood still, not even moving a step. He allowed Bellamy to attack from all sides. Roman's figure was elusive, like a feather struck by a hammer; before the hammer fell, the wind came first! And even a slight breeze was enough to make the feather dance in the wind. No matter how the hammer whistled and swept across the ground, none could harm the feather in the slightest.

"Henchman! Useless coward! Coward!"

Bellamy, who had been attacking Roman repeatedly for ages without even touching a hair on Roman head, was furious! She started speaking without thinking.

"If you're so capable, then stand there and hit me!!!"

This········

People only listen to your wailing when they have nothing better to do.

Amidst the onlookers' complaints, Roman calmly gave his reply.

"OK."

??

After saying that Roman took a horse stance, clasped his fists together, and assumed a 'hard-hitting' posture!

This wasn't because he was out of his mind, but because a dark and terrifying aura was watching over the battlefield, and the source was undoubtedly the Blackbeard sitting next to him, who was taller than an average person and was eating cherry pie!

Very good, after performing 'Kami-e', here's another move: 'Tekkai'.

With Blackbeard's meticulous mind, he'll probably come up with many interesting ideas...

"Go to hell!!"

Bellamy, who had already turned into a blur, suddenly threw a punch at Roman, the power of which was no less than that of a naval heavy cannon!

Roman didn't dodge, letting the other's fist land on his chest! They collided head-on.

Boom!!

With a deafening roar, like a cannonball exploding on flat ground, the floor cracked open in concentric circles! The flying dirt and sand shot out in all directions like countless arrows.

The many pirates who were intently watching the battle all gasped in shock!

In the center of the battle, Roman's body didn't even sway, like a statue cast in steel! Bellamy, however, flew backward through the air, leaving a gray trail in his wake, accompanied by a lingering cloud of dust! He crashed into the building behind him with a bang, and judging from the bent shape of his exposed arm, a comminuted fracture was inevitable!

"Monster! How terrifying!"

"To take Bellamy's punch head-on and still manage to send the opponent reeling like this..."

"Just who is this expert?"

Amidst the surprised gasps of the passing pirates, Blackbeard, having just taken a swig of wine, flashed a glint in his eyes.

Kami-e, Tekkai?

It's somewhat ambiguous, but judging from his contempt for pirates and his behavior, there's a high probability he's from a 'government' background. Is he a traitor or undercover agent for the Navy or CP?

Interesting~~

P. S.: Just asking for votes as usual~~~~
