Kizaru's Speed

The Azure Dragon Form had three elemental abilities: wind, fire, and lightning.

After testing the power of the lightning element, Maud wanted to try a move that fused wind and fire.

Unfortunately, Shusui had already run out of stamina, so he could only give up on that idea.

Shusui, which had fallen into a deep sleep, returned to its normal form. Maud tightened his grip on Shusui's hilt and looked down at the over a hundred CP0 elites flying toward him in formation.

Before ensuring that Sabo and the others had escaped to safety, he had to stop all the pursuers here.

"Conqueror."

Maud rested his sword on his shoulder. His arm bulged, veins standing out sharply, and then he swung his blade.

The sound of a blade slicing through the air rang out.

A massive cylindrical shock wave surged toward the numerous CP0 elites below.

Facing the enormous shock wave hurtling straight toward them, the CP0 elites shifted sideways in both directions with extremely refined Geppo techniques, narrowly dodging the shock wave from Conqueror.

Although Maud's Conqueror missed, it still slowed the CP0 elites' pursuit.

However, the strength of these CP0 elites was indeed impressive.

Their techniques were superb, their bodies highly coordinated, and they also knew how to use Observation Haki...

With such strength, they could at least rival the elite vice admirals of Marine Headquarters.

If it were one-on-one, Maud could restrain the strength of his attack and confidently kill every single person in this hundred-man unit in an instant.

But he was facing a hundred enemies alone. Spreading out his attack meant lowering its accuracy.

In other words—

Maud could not eliminate these CP0 elites in a short time.

After realizing this, Maud simply changed his approach. His goal was to hold them back, not kill
