A miraculous scene unfolded.

The members of the Slick Pirates screamed and ran away in panic.

They weren't calling for reinforcements or notifying anyone. Judging from their expressions, they simply wanted to run away and leave Bona Island.

They simply abandoned two of the One Piece crew's officers.

Long ignored these people and instead killed Zidal and Maipeng, using the system's functions to extract two cards from their corpses.

One is a skill card, and the other is an experience card.

He must kill the target before the system can proceed with the conversion.

After doing all this, without needing anyone to point the way, Long headed towards the tallest building in town.

Above that building hung an extremely conspicuous sign, like a giant billboard, with a One Piece flag fluttering in the wind... it was the emblem of the Slick Pirates.

Unsurprisingly, the One Piece captain was there.

This meat grinder Maipeng, possesses considerable physical strength. Even without Haki, it wouldn't be easy for Oboro to inflict damage on him using combat techniques. Fortunately, he had been cultivating within Sea Kings's body during this time, significantly improving his Qi cultivation methods.

The journey to the building took a few minutes, and Long walked slowly, not in a hurry.

Some shops that had been closed on the street suddenly opened, and a large number of people poured out, including One Piece and shop staff. These people were carrying luggage and looked like they were fleeing a disaster. When they saw them swaggering in the sun, they all looked terrified and deliberately avoided them.

The news spread quickly...

The townspeople were all desperately fleeing towards the docks, each wanting to be the first to leave this place of trouble.

"Um?"

At this moment, Long raised an eyebrow, as if she had noticed something.

He suddenly quickened his pace, transforming into an arrow that shot off in one direction.

Dom immediately followed.

As the two ran out of the intersection, they looked up and saw a group of people carrying several large treasure chests, preparing to make their escape.

The long-haired man at the head, covered in sweat and with slightly gloomy features, was none other than the captain of the Slick Pirates, the two-headed snake Slik Yorki. Hearing the commotion, Yoki's expression changed drastically. Seeing Oboro and Dom, he ordered his men to stop moving and assume a fighting stance.

His plan to pack up his belongings and run away failed! The appearance of the God Slayer on Bona Island is not a simple matter.

Even if they capture the God Slayer and hand him over to the World Government, they are destined to be silenced... because it involves the Celestial Dragons, which is extremely sensitive.

Moreover, he was a seasoned veteran at sea and knew all too well what kind of people the World Government was. Those high and mighty Celestial Dragons never cared about the lives of lowly commoners like them.

Moreover, he had only sent out Maipeng and Zidal a short while before receiving news of their deaths in battle.

This shows that the legendary God Slayer was no ordinary being.

Even if he has a powerful backer, it won't help in this situation.

The best course of action is to escape as quickly as possible, before the navy arrives.

Having caught Slik Yorki, or rather, the venomous snake Yoki ... Oboro also switched from running back to walking, approaching indifferently.

He also removed the cloth strip from his face.

Upon seeing Long's face, Yoki's face turned even paler.

He kept cursing in his mind, "Damn it!"

How could this jinx have ended up on Bona Island, a place so remote and inconspicuous on the flight path? It's truly an incredibly unlucky stroke of bad luck.

"Here you go... I don't want to get involved in your affairs," Yoki said in a deep voice.

He was quite clear-headed and decisive.

Upon hearing this, the surrounding One Piece also made way, revealing the treasure chest.

Long shook his head.

The meaning is self-evident.

Clearly, money alone cannot satisfy his appetite... he still wants to kill.

Are you sure?

Yoki took a deep breath and sneered, "I advise you to hurry up and run away with your things. Don't be greedy. I've been more than polite to you... If I weren't wary of the influence of your identity, I wouldn't be so kind."

"If we insist on fighting to the death, and everyone gets bogged down, we'll all die here once the navy lands!"

Even if Oboro leaves Bona Island now, it won't solve the fundamental problem. The World Government will still carry out some degree of 'cleaning' of Bona Island.

Long did not respond.

"You want us all to die with you, is that it?!"

Yoki finally couldn't hold back any longer, his tone sinister and filled with anger.

Without further ado, he gave a signal, and a group of his men immediately charged towards Long.

Bang bang bang! But Oboro continued to walk leisurely... Before any of the One Piece who approached him could even touch his body with their blades, they were struck as if by some unseen force, falling backward one after another, blood gushing out.

Yoki's pupils contracted.

He saw it clearly... it was because Oboro's attack was too fast, including the coordination of her body movements, and her figure also swayed.

It's just that it's difficult for ordinary people to observe.

So fast that it left no afterimage...

It takes extremely sharp eyesight to spot it.

"Indeed very strong!"

Yoki's heart tightened.

Despite having surrounded Oboro, the One Piece were now lying on the ground.

"Hiss."

Suddenly, Oboro heard a strange sound.

It sounded like a snake flicking its tongue.

Yoki, dressed in a large black robe with long sleeves that covered his arms, swept across the ground in a zigzag pattern as he rushed forward.

It unleashed an astonishing killing intent.

Beneath the long sleeves, a hand gripped a short sword coated with deadly poison, aiming for Oboro's raised arm.

"Huh?"

Lung was slightly surprised.

This person can actually see the trajectory of his attack; that's pretty impressive!

Oboro immediately changed his move... Just as he was about to strike Oboro with his hand, Yoki's body seemed to be as soft as a boneless lizard, his slender figure truly like a snake's body, and he actually slid out from close range, instantly sticking to Oboro's back.

He raised his poisoned sword, ready to strike.

"You asked for this!"

Yoki said coldly.

Even if he kills the God Slayer, he will not gain any 'glory' for it, and is more likely to bring himself inescapable danger.

The World Government will not allow the news to spread.

In other words, the God Slayer can only die at the hands of the Navy and the World Government.

This is also why he didn't want to get entangled with Oboro.

"What a magical world. Judging from his physique alone, this person's flesh and blood strength is nowhere near that of Maipeng from before, but the speed, strength, explosiveness, and reaction he actually displayed far surpassed the former. In the world of One Piece, the data and theories once used to analyze the body can no longer be deduced in the normal way... The size of the body and the manifestation of muscle mass are only somewhat related to the strength of flesh and blood." An idea flashed through Oboro's mind.

While physical strength in Hunter x Hunter and Demon Slayer cannot be judged solely by appearance, it's not as outrageous as that of One Piece... People like Yoki are common in One Piece, not a minority.

It's still because the basic talent of flesh and blood is too high.

The cold glint of the poisoned sword shone behind Long.

Based on Yoki's experience, the battle is over.

If the opponent doesn't react immediately, they will definitely be bitten by his 'venomous fangs' and die! Snap! However, the next second, blood suddenly splattered from Yoki's ear.

I lost my hearing, and my brain buzzed.

The weapon fell from his hand, his body went limp, and he collapsed, feeling dizzy and disoriented.

"I got hit?"

He looked completely bewildered.

How could that be?

He couldn't understand it, and the man who turned around didn't give him an answer either.

Instead, he raised his foot and stomped on his head.

Bang! With the skull shattering and red and white liquid spreading out, the captain of the Slick Pirates officially left the stage of the sea.
