Sabaody Grand Stage (4)

The nine members of the Hell Pirates gathered in a park on the Sabaody Archipelago.

Crocodile and Daz Bones were not there; Oboro and Dom had just arrived from Grove 5, and the others came from various areas of the Sabaody Archipelago.

Along the way, they witnessed and learned about the current battle between One Piece and the navy.

Kaka and Dorans spent the time wandering around the island.

Yurivich, like the Enel quartet, was training on a lonely island.

As for Rob Lucci ... Oboro didn't need to think to guess that he must have been to Enies Lobby, but because he couldn't expose himself, he probably didn't participate in the Straw Hat Pirates's battle against CP9.

They arrived at Sabaody Archipelago before the navy.

The timing was perfect.

All the streets on the island have been quickly sealed off by the navy, and fierce fighting is breaking out in various locations.

But overall, the One Piece are in a one-sided situation.

Boom boom boom.

Fireworks lit up the sky above the park, and you could hear the urgent roars of One Piece.

You can also see the orderly rows of naval soldiers in the distance, their figures moving about with guns.

The sheer scale of the commotion gave Dom a fleeting illusion of being transported back two years, to the time he and Oboro spent fleeing after killing the Celestial Dragons. However, compared to the past, when they were constantly filled with fear and hiding, they were now... remarkably composed.

He is no longer the small-time One Piece with a bounty of several million.

"The Navy's scientific unit... That's not a Shichibukai, nor is it a living person, but a machine called the Pacifista." After a while, Oboro led the group to a battlefield, where One Piece were fleeing in panic, looking particularly disheveled... At the intersection of the streets, the Pacifista, which looked like the Shichibukai Kuma, was frequently blasting lasers at the surrounding area.

Its power was almost devastating to the One Piece who flooded into the Sabaody Archipelago.

Few can rival it.

Upon seeing the Hell Pirates, some of the fugitives were stunned for a moment, then their faces lit up with joy.

They believed that the sudden appearance of the God Slayer would naturally restrain the 'Seven Warlords of the Sea' who were indiscriminately slaughtering them, thus giving them time to escape.

"This thing was created by Vegapunk... it's also a trump card the Navy came up with to balance the increasingly unstable 'maritime atmosphere'," Oboro said calmly, glancing at the Pacifista.

Of course, the origin of the Pacifista also involves a heartbreaking story of Bartholomew Kuma's sacrifice.

Oboro had only one comment about Ooku.

A real man.

He admires it.

Father, family, partners, dreams... Da Xiong does his best in every kind of brilliance or role he possesses.

Bang! Of course, not all One Piece were running away.

At that moment, a warrior wielding a huge spear, attempting to destroy the Pacifista, was fighting them.

The thick and sharp barrel of the gun, when used, moves with the force of a tiger, and the gun moves like a dragon.

The reason this person is called a samurai is because his clothing and appearance are very distinctive. Oboro could tell at a glance that he was from the Flower Country.

Moreover, this person had appeared during a previous sermon and blessing ceremony... and received power.

"Sebastian of the Storm Ghost Pirates, bounty of seventy-six million," Dom said.

The battle was over before the group even got close.

No matter how fierce Sebastian's marksmanship was, it seemed unable to cause much damage to the 'tough' Pacifista... and his physical body simply couldn't withstand the laser's fire. As the light burst forth from the Pacifista's palm, the One Piece with a bounty of nearly 100 million was instantly burned through half his body, collapsing to the ground with his eyes wide open in death.

The area around the Pacifista was deserted, littered with corpses, and a scene of utter devastation.

Meanwhile, the Hell Pirates strolled over.

Pacifista are keeping a close eye on them, conducting data analysis.

"Hell Pirates... God Slayer Oboro, Danger Level... Top Level." Kuma's mouth uttered a stiff, mechanical voice.

The group thought the Pacifista would attack them, but to their surprise, after speaking, Big Bear simply turned and left.

"Um?"

Dorans paused for a moment.

At that moment, a dark figure in the group leaped up like a lion released from its cage.

They stopped the Pacifista.

Oboro ignored him and walked straight toward Sebastian's corpse.

The Pacifista are a valuable asset to the World Government, but the Five Elders also know that a single unit or a few units would hardly pose a threat to the Hell Pirates. To prevent the machines from being destroyed, they naturally incorporated instructions into the Pacifista's programming that if they were to encounter them, the first priority would be to evacuate.

Sensing the approaching One Piece about to attack, the Pacifista instantly raised his arm, aiming at Yurivich, who was suspended in mid-air, his palm already bursting with dazzling light.

But facing the light, Yurivich's expression turned cold. Before the laser could even fire, his terrifying greatsword spun and unleashed a horrific slash, instantly severing the Pacifista's arm. Then, before his body even hit the ground, the muscles in his sword-wielding arm bulged explosively, and he swung it again with a sudden, powerful swing.

He swung the broadsword as if it were a blunt weapon, and smashed it hard into the Pacifista's chest.

This caused the machine, which had previously been indestructible by the samurai, to retreat repeatedly and finally collapse to the ground with a crash.

At the same time, Yurivich's body fell like a cannonball.

The bear opened its mouth, aimed again, and fired.

But the towering Yuri, with terrifying force, stomped his feet on the Pacifista's chest, causing the laser beam to deflect, grazing his cheek and shooting straight into the sky.

The next second, the powerful blade smashed the Pacifista's head.

Inside, Precision instruments and circuit boards gleamed with sparks and electric light.

A Pacifista machine, in the blink of an eye... was scrapped.

After doing all this, Yuri, with a cold expression, wiped the small burn mark on his cheek with his finger and returned to the group.

The others, however, did not react to this scene.

Yuri has clearly become stronger... Although the addition of Enel and Crocodile has lowered his ranking as the strongest fighter besides the captain, Yuri's talent is undoubtedly terrifying, especially his physical body, as a well-known weapon against nations in the North Blue.

In terms of Haki presence, it is equally impressive.

His powerful physical body and vital energy allow him to unleash his Haki more freely and comprehensively.

Judging from this, even Enel wouldn't dare say he could beat him with certainty.

Maybe, if a real fight breaks out... the beast will be the victor.

There are many factors that will determine the outcome... Both of them are improving, it just depends on who is faster.

Enel needs to hurry.

After all, there's an unspoken rule within the Hell Pirates: whoever is stronger gets to listen to them.

Oboro extracted Sebastian's abilities into cards. The system can only strip away the original owner's inherent abilities, not those that have been enhanced. Sebastian had already received a blessing, so collecting cards from such an individual would not allow for the development or accumulation of power through the cards.

However, it's enough for the plans ahead.

"Let's go, let's take another look around."

He said with a long smile.

Let's collect some of the stronger cards first.

Oboro had already memorized which One Piece were stronger from the previous 'preaching'.

Now is the time to reap the rewards.

Of course, he'll play the good guys... the bad guys are left to the navy.

The latter was a great help.
