Overwhelming

In just a few minutes, nearly a thousand naval soldiers died, and more importantly, nine Marine Captain were killed—a truly horrific event.

The strength of the Night Pirates' officers exceeded their expectations.

Some had already predicted the outcome of this battle: the navy was going to lose again. How could they win if they couldn't compete in high-end combat capabilities?

Gari, the most ferocious warrior, wreaked havoc in the navy like a beast, tearing flesh apart and splattering blood, inspiring fear in those who saw him.

Speed, power, overwhelming dominance—he was behind the navy, wreaking havoc. Now, it wasn't a battle, it was a hunt.

"This monster is simply unbeatable!" The surrounding marines were terrified, some even dropping their weapons and fleeing; they had lost all will to fight.

The four Marine Captain had previously surrounded Gari were already dead, killed by Gari's blade. One of the Marine Captain was even torn in half by Gari.

But how could they possibly outrun Gari, who was being relentlessly hunted?

Gari roared excitedly, transforming into a Blood Lion. Such a scene could be seen in various parts of the East China Sea, the Sabaody Archipelago, and a few other places.

The Navy has been defeated, and everyone can see that. Now, the question is how many Navy personnel will survive, and what will happen to Teach, the captain of the Night Pirates. We want to see the strength of this overlord of the East Blue.

It had never been exposed before, except for that one photo of a claw piercing through Marine Captain's abdomen, which is also the origin of Teach's nickname "Claw".

In the very center of the battlefield, Teach slowly walked forward. No naval soldier dared to attack him. Before him stood ten Marine Captain.

With the other Marine Captain dead, this place became the center of the main battlefield, and countless people were watching it.

"Hahaha! Ten Marine Captain think they can take me down? They'd need at least a fleet!" Teach looked up at the naval forces in front of him and couldn't help but laugh. Only Marine Vice Admiral could command a fleet on his own.

Although he was considered a strong person in the East China Sea, in Teach's eyes, he was still a weak and frail character.

"Marshall D. Teach, for defying the authority of the Navy, your crimes condemn you to Impel Down."

"But we won't give you that chance; this will be your grave."

The Marine Captain opposite him spoke in succession, staring intently at Teach with great confidence, his cloak of justice fluttering in the wind behind him.

"Hahaha! You navy guys are really something, are you trying to make me laugh to death so you can inherit my fortune?" Teach couldn't help but burst into laughter.

After a long while, he regained his composure, a mocking smile on his face and a flash of contempt in his eyes. Then he said coldly, "Haven't you noticed yet? Apart from you, all the other colonels are already corpses. Are you still so confident? These so-called colonels are nothing but larger ants."

Teach crossed his arms, but his words caused the opposing navy to change their expressions. They couldn't help but look around. The entire battlefield, with a scale of 10,000 people, wasn't very large; you could see the end of it at a glance. Because there were navy figures everywhere, they thought the navy still had the advantage.

Looking around carefully, they found no trace of their other comrades, and their expressions turned grim. The Night Pirates' officers were slaughtering Navy soldiers, not fighting their fellow crew members as they had imagined.

Now it seems that the navy's morale has dropped significantly and they are clearly in a losing position. All the other Marine Captain are dead, and only their existence offers a glimmer of hope for victory, allowing them to hold on with great difficulty.

"Hmph, so what? One of your officers is already dead. Under the Navy's justice, victory still belongs to us."

Turning our gaze to one side of the battlefield, Kaguya was fighting with other Marine soldiers. Compared to Pito, the ten-year-old Kaguya was clearly easier to deal with. At the same time, Kaguya was also a member of the Night Pirates, and many Marines who wanted to make a name for themselves had their eyes on Kaguya. Faced with the Marines' constant attacks, Kaguya was starting to fall into a disadvantageous position.

After all, some of the navy personnel are veterans of countless battles.

"Is 'Navy's justice' just about sieges?" Teach sneered. "I forgot to tell you something: Kaguya has already killed ninety-eight Navy personnel."

This astonishing number of kills was achieved by a child who was only ten years old. Upon hearing this data, many people couldn't help but feel shocked.

Some astute individuals, however, paid attention to Teach's words. The Teach could so easily ascertain Kaguya's kill count suggested that she Awakening... A vague suspicion began to form in their minds.

Although Kaguya is currently at a disadvantage, her kill count is still increasing. However, the number of Marines attacking her is quite large. She is a combat-type monster with powerful combat talent and instincts. Teach will not let her fall into danger, as Teach is constantly monitoring Kaguya's condition.

Turning to Kaguya, Teach said with Kaguya smile, "No need to seal it anymore, Kaguya. I allow you to use your abilities here." "Let's give them a surprise."

"Yes, Lord Teach." Kaguya nodded, somewhat pleased. This ability had been sealed by Teach after he obtained him, and was forbidden from being used in battle, in order to hone his physical skills and physique.

"Ability?" Some people were puzzled, while others realized what it meant and their eyes widened in surprise.

The Night Pirates originally had three Devil Fruit User, and now they have one more.

"What!"

"I didn't expect the captain to let Kaguya use it. This is the most suitable ability for Kaguya, combined with Kaguya close combat talent." Wallace heard this, turned his head to look in Kaguya's direction, and smiled as he spoke.

"Kaguya has a very high compatibility with it. Although it has only been half a month, she is already able to use it proficiently." Nelson is very familiar with Kaguya's abilities.

"Sizzle!" To everyone's astonishment, several Marine soldiers surrounding Kaguya died instantly, sharp bone spikes erupting from Kaguya's body and piercing through their flesh.

These bone spurs that grew from Kaguya's Kaguya were under her control and could be manipulated at will. With a backward retraction, the bone spurs were pulled out of the marines' bodies, blood flowed out, and bloody holes appeared on their bodies.

Immediately afterwards, Kaguya's palm was pierced, and a bone knife extended from her palm. She had abandoned her original long sword. Sharp bone spurs appeared between Kaguya's elbows, and soon, bone spurs all over Kaguya's body transformed her into a true Killing Machine.

Hard bones, with a defensive capability exceeding that of steel, possess an inherent absolute defense.

"Teach has given the order, so you'll all stay here," Kaguya said coldly, her body moving instantly. Bone spikes pierced through the marines' bodies, and her bone knife reaped lives one by one.

The situation reversed in an instant, and Kaguya's fighting power surged after she unleashed her Devil Fruit ability.

The Paramecia Bone-Bone Fruit is the Devil Fruit that Kaguya ate. It's a power perfectly suited to Kaguya, allowing her to develop Kaguya close-combat abilities to their fullest potential.

This was confiscated from those pirate ships after the battle on Sakhalin Island, which surprised Teach. It was a powerful ability, and on this ship, only Gari and Kaguya were suitable for it. However, Gari gave up because he didn't want to eat Devil Fruit.

Therefore, this Devil Fruit was assigned to Kaguya. Apart from training and regular battles, Kaguya has never revealed her ability in public until now.

The Bone-Bone Fruit completely transformed Kaguya's body, allowing her to create bones, control her bone structure, and possess a stronger physique and regenerative abilities. The effects were in no way inferior to the Shikotsumyaku (Corpse Bone Pulse) from Naruto.

With her powerful combat talent and near-perfectly matched abilities, Teach believed that Kaguya's aptitude was more than enough to support him until he reached the Admiral level.

"In that case, Teach, let's take care of you first." Williams, the leader of the navy, said in a deep voice. This situation was completely different from what the navy had expected, and he had a vague feeling that this operation was not right.

They lacked detailed information about the Night Pirates, and their assessment of the Night Pirates' true strength was completely wrong. They acted solely on anger, blind speculation, and overconfidence in their own power.

This has led to the current situation. Their navy needs to break the deadlock, and the key to breaking the deadlock lies with Teach. This is a battle that everyone is watching closely, and their navy cannot run away from it.

As soon as he finished speaking, Williams' figure flashed past as he used Shave, as if teleporting. At the same moment he moved, the other marines also attacked.

Although they had never joined forces, these Marine Captain maintained a considerable understanding and immediately dispersed, intending to work together to deal with Teach.

They might have been a bit arrogant and dismissive of Teach at first, but now they are much more wary, as the other members of the Night Pirates have demonstrated strength surpassing that of the colonel.

Therefore, as the captain of the Night Pirates, Teach would undoubtedly be even more powerful.

The intervention of ten colonels greatly boosted the morale of the navy. They always had a certain admiration for their superiors and for their powerful strength, believing that with so many colonels working together, they would surely be able to defeat the captain of the Night Pirates and bring them victory.

However, they did not consider that these colonels were the last pillar of the navy on this battlefield, and what would become of the marines once they fell.

In everyone's eyes, as the Marine Captain charged at him, Teach's hands instantly came to life, transforming into a pair of sharp, demonic claws.

"What gives you your confidence?" Teach tilted his head, dodging Williams' Shigan thrust at him. "Shigan - machine gun!"

Williams used his Shigan with incredible speed, repeatedly thrusting it at Teach's body; however, Teach easily dodged each of these attacks.

In the midst of the relentless attacks, two more Marine Captain appeared behind Teach, using the Marine Six Styles to continuously assault Teach.

But even when facing an attack from these three people, Teach remained remarkably relaxed.

A smile appeared on Teach's face, sending a chill down Williams' spine. Teach turned and delivered a double kick, seemingly light, which landed on the abdomens of the two Marine Captain.

Yet it contained astonishing power, sending both colonels flying.

Williams wanted to move, but felt that his body couldn't move on its own because Teach was moving too fast, and his body couldn't keep up with the speed of his nerves.

It was too late to escape.

Teach extended a claw and grabbed Williams' right arm. The next moment, Williams' pupils contracted, and he screamed in pain as Williams body collapsed to the ground.

All eyes were drawn to him, and they were all shocked. Williams' right arm was completely empty, bloody, with flesh clearly visible, and the white bone at the shoulder was also visible.

This caused their bodies to tremble involuntarily, and even those watching on screen felt a sense of fear.

It was terrifying. Williams, one of the strongest Marine Captain, had his entire right arm torn off by Teach. How painful that must have been, and how terrifying the power it contained. Yet, no one wanted to be caught by that claw.

At this moment, they finally understood the true origin of Teach's nickname "Claws," looking at those demonic claws, which were terrifying beyond belief.

"Now do you realize the difference between us?" Teach looked at Williams lying on the ground, took two steps forward, and stepped on Williams.

Williams' eyes widened, his mouth agape, struggling but unable to resist, almost unable to breathe.

The terrifying force pressed him firmly to the ground, his chest caved in under Teach's weight, making a cracking sound. Blood flowed from Williams' mouth; several of his ribs were broken.

Only then did he truly realize the power of Teach, a force he could not resist. But how could such a monster exist in the weakest of the East Blues?

"Colonel Williams!" Seeing that Williams was in danger, the remaining colleagues rushed over one by one.

"Looks like there are still some who haven't realized it." Teach chuckled and sighed, lowering his head slightly. Williams, at his feet, shook his head frantically, gesturing towards the distance.

He struggled desperately, and then felt a release in his chest, allowing him to catch his breath and speak. Although he didn't know what had happened, it was an extremely urgent situation.

"Run! We're no match for them! Take all the marines and get out of here!" Williams shouted at the top of his lungs.

However, it was too late. The reason he was able to speak was because Teach had vanished from his spot and appeared in front of a naval lieutenant commander in an instant, waving his arms from top to bottom.

Five sharp, blood-red claws appeared out of thin air and struck the Marine Captain directly, piercing through his body and stripping him of his life force.
