Meteor

There were three naval warships on the ocean. Judging from Xia Qiu and Robin's positions when they entered the water, one was about 60 degrees to the right, one was about 15 degrees to the right, and the other was 15 degrees to the left, all heading diagonally in the direction the two were heading.

Xia Qiu rushed straight towards the leftmost ship, while Robin walked along the coast to the left.

"T-Bone, the Giant Beast is coming."

On the naval warship that was trying to intercept Robin, a Lieutenant Commander shouted loudly.

"Then let's open fire and fight back. He attacked the Rapeseed Flower City. For the safety of the people, we can't let this Giant Beast live."

Penn gripped the sword on his back and stood on the ship's railing, looking wary.

On the middle naval warship, a burly man in a naval uniform smoked a cigarette and said, "That woman wants the Giant Beast to block the warship so she can escape. Change course and chase Robin. Don't get too close to her rashly. Keep your distance and fire only after you catch up."

"It's Brigadier General Madsen."

The sailor quickly responded and chased after Robin, but they were still some distance apart.

They are some distance from the coast, and their boats are faster than sea turtles, but the sea breeze is weak and the currents are perpendicular to the coast, making navigation difficult and limiting their speed.

If we get close, it will take a lot of time.

Secondly, if they get too close, it will be difficult for the artillery to fire from both sides. It is better to maintain distance, catch up directly, and then fire.

"When will the reinforcements arrive?" A tall, pink-haired woman standing on the third warship suddenly asked.

Beside him, a Marine Captain shouted, "Hina, she's right behind us, about three or four nautical miles away."

"That's really slow."

Tina snorted and said, "Let's chase after them first. This area is under our jurisdiction, and Colonel T. Penn and Brigadier General Madsen are just providing temporary support nearby. It would be embarrassing if they captured Robin first."

"Yes." The sailors quickly caught up.

At that moment, Xia Qiu rushed through the shells to a spot not far from the first naval warship and rammed into it.

"Good timing! Today I will kill you right here."

T Bone drew his longsword, suddenly gripped the hilt tightly, and slashed downwards.

"Right Angle Flash, T-Bone's Air Slash."

The next moment, a Rankyaku suddenly appeared and shot towards the sea surface.

Xia Qiu ignored everything and charged straight forward.

Bang.

T Bone's Rankyaku struck Xia Qiu's first dorsal fin directly, slicing through the skin of the hard spines in front and hitting the bones inside.

Click.

A crack appeared on the hard thorn, and the crack slowly widened, while the Rankyaku was rapidly consumed. When the crack penetrated six or seven centimeters, the Rankyaku disappeared.

The first dorsal fin of Xia Qiu is similar to that of a shark, shaped like a sickle.

At the very front of the fin is a hard spine that curves backward.

After growing, Xia Qiu's first dorsal fin is more than five meters long, curved backward, about four meters high, and the thickest part at the bottom is fifty centimeters.

Through countless reinforcements, Xia Qiu's thorns became increasingly hard. If Xia Qiu's teeth were tungsten steel with a hardness of nine, then Xia Qiu's skull was zircon with a hardness of 7.5, and Xia Qiu's thorns were iron with a hardness of five.

Behind the hard spines are layers of filamentous cartilage. After being reinforced, this cartilage becomes more resilient and can dissipate force.

His Rankyaku could cleave the necks of small Sea King, but when it struck Xia Qiu's hard spines, the force was constantly neutralized, barely managing to break through Xia Qiu's spines.

His ability to cut through some of the hard thorns was enough to prove his swordsmanship.

boom.

The next moment, Xia Qiu crashed heavily into the naval warship, causing the warship to tremble violently.

Click.

The naval warship crashed through a large hole in its hull, allowing seawater to gush in. Cracks were spreading upwards from the hole, and Xia Qiu's head was half inside, crashing into the keel.

Click.

Cracks appeared on the surface of the keel.

The keel is the strongest and most important part of a ship. A broken keel is difficult to repair, and if the keel is completely broken, the ship cannot travel very far.

If the keel is broken, the ship is basically a total loss.

Normally, Xia Qiu ships would not directly ram the keel because the keel is too hard, especially for ships on the Grand Line.

Xia Qiu's original method was to disrupt the buoyancy balance and then let the ship sink.

The drawback is that the larger the ship, the more times it needs to be rammed. For example, a naval warship will need to ram itself at least three to four times.

But things are different now; we can smash through the bottom of the ship and directly ram the keel.

One more time, and you can break the dragon bone in two.

Xia Qiu did not launch another attack, but instead swam back and rushed towards the second warship.

He's chasing Robin and is closest to Robin; he must be stopped.

Secondly, it provides the necessary distance for a charge, which makes another ship the perfect target.

boom.

Xia Qiu rushed towards the ship, accelerating once more.

The first collision with the ship only used eight-tenths of its strength, but now Xia Qiu is ramming it with all its might.

"Here they come, Brigadier General Madsen!" a figure shouted from the warship.

"I know, bring me my ' Meteor '."

Madsen sneered and ripped off his navy uniform, revealing his muscular physique.

"Yes."

Immediately, a sailor came up and handed Madsen a huge iron fist-shaped barrel, with a diamond-shaped stone at the very front center of the barrel.

This rock is made of peculiar meteorite iron and is incredibly sturdy.

He put his fist into the punching barrel, rotated the front of the barrel, and with a click, the barrel contained his fist.

"Bring it on."

Madsen jumped onto the gunwale, raised his right arm.

Bang, bang.

His right arm suddenly swelled up, the black ribbon on it broke, and the arm became enormous.

Madsen looked at the approaching Giant Beast, raised his fist, bent his legs, and then sprang forward.

"Initiative attack?"

Xia Qiu caught sight of him, snorted coldly, and used the momentum to rush diagonally upwards.

Xia Qiu rammed into the other person, whose fist slammed downwards.

boom.

The fist and the ram collided.

Under the immense force, Xia Qiu's scales dented slightly, and the muscles beneath continuously absorbed the power. However, as the force continued to transfer, the top of the meteorite block gathered tremendous power, and cracks began to appear on Xia Qiu's scales. After breaking, the scales continued to descend, tearing apart layer after layer of muscle, but the power grew weaker and weaker.

After the meteorite sank into Xia Qiu's muscles, the large gauntlet behind him was obstructed by the surrounding scales and muscles, causing the force to decrease rapidly.

Smack

The meteorite's power vanished without even touching Xia Qiu's skull.

As soon as the boxing gloves struck Xia Qiu's head, the force caused a slight crack to appear at the point where the meteorite was attached.

As the gauntlet penetrated deeper, the meteorite itself remained undamaged, but the gauntlet behind it began to break apart from the middle, slowly splitting open.

Click.

The boxing gloves shattered, the force traveling through his arm and tearing his muscle fibers, causing his bones to creak.

boom.

Xia Qiu's head continued forward, crashing into Madsen's fist while propelled by the meteorite.

Click.

Madsen's Fist Bone broke, and then the force was transmitted, making a faint sound throughout his arm.

Gala.

Madsen's arm was broken, and his body was thrown back, but Xia Qiu's force also disappeared. Most of the force was neutralized by Madsen's arm. After flying a distance, Madsen's body fell back onto the sea.

After Xia Qiu's first impact, the head of the animal returned to the surface, then immediately rose again, intending to do it again.

"Geppo".

Madsen's feet stomped across the water several times in an instant, his body suddenly rising high, and after a few leaps, he returned to the boat.

"What a powerful Giant Beast."

Madsen looked terrible; his entire arm was useless, and even if it recovered, he probably wouldn't be able to exert much force again.

"No one was killed in the crash."

Xia Qiu's attack dissipated as the force of the blow dissipated, and his opponent escaped, leaving Xia Qiu somewhat disappointed.

He is very strong.

Although he collided with her on the water's surface, his strength was the greatest she had ever received.

He's at least Commodore.

Xia Qiu had already added the opponent to his must-eat list. He turned around and charged towards the first warship again.
