Fierce Battle: Victory (4)

Lafitte's figure flashed around Legart repeatedly. He could have killed Legart with a single sword strike, but he didn't want to; he wanted to torture him to death.

Legart's body was covered in bloody welts. His sword had fallen to the ground, and he could no longer stand. He was kneeling on the ground, with several bloody holes piercing his thighs.

Finally, Legart couldn't hold on any longer and collapsed completely.

Nevertheless, he was not dead; he was still breathing. However, his face was completely stripped of its skin, as Lafitte's sword tip pierced his flesh and cut the skin out.

And so, Lafitte stopped caring about him and let him fend for himself, since Legart wouldn't live much longer anyway.

Having captured the unconscious Masolin, Lafitte quickly left to help the other members in their fight, which was far from over.

Clemons gasped for breath, his muscles tense. Facing the guards, his powerful burst of energy created a series of booming sounds in the air.

Each punch sent a guard flying, even those clad in iron armor.

After all, there were quite a few of them.

At that moment, gunshots rang out, and the guards fell one by one. Then, a familiar blood-red figure appeared, with dark red bat wings and blood-red sword light flashing among the figures. Each time, a guard fell.

The two officers of the Night Pirates have returned, which means that their captain was defeated in the battle. Although it's hard to believe, why didn't they show up?

The arrival of the two captains greatly boosted the morale of the Night Pirates, and the situation shifted significantly in their favor.

The area north of the royal palace, in front of the northern city gate, had been reduced to ruins, and the ground radiated an astonishing heat.

Meanwhile, Wallace, standing alone in the center of the battlefield, faced two powerful figures, two formidable bounty hunters. Dink, the team leader, boasted a record of hunting bounties exceeding 100 million, and was now even stronger.

Teyera, the vice-captain, is a Zoan Devil Fruit User.

The one facing Wallace head-on is Dink, a bounty hunter with a rich past and, like Wallace, has also mastered Armament Haki.

Meanwhile, Teyera was assisting Dink's attack. Although he was an ability user with powerful attack and defense capabilities due to his spikes, he still had to temporarily avoid Wallace's fists.

Wallace's Molten Steel Fist possesses the hardness of steel, but it's not ordinary steel; it's accompanied by intense heat, and Conqueror's Haki coating his arms.

Wallace's arms were a dark red, like the color of lava, and if they landed on Teyera, they would render him unable to fight.

He stood there steadily, his figure vanishing in an instant, charging towards Dink with unstoppable momentum. At the same time, astonishing heat emanated from his body, and both of them were covered in sweat.

Dink's longsword, imbued with Armament Haki, blocked the attack. The next moment, Wallace's fist landed on Dink's longsword.

Dink's hands trembled as he gripped the knife. Even with the strength in his arms, he was still struggling to withstand Teyera's punch, and his body was pushed back seven or eight steps.

Wallace had no intention of giving him a chance, and quickly charged at Dink, pressing his advantage. The two were no match for him, and at that moment, Teyera seized the opportunity.

Covered in steel spikes, his body trembled, and a dozen sharp spikes shot towards Wallace, but he still maintained a distance from Wallace. He didn't want to endure Wallace's Molten Steel Fist any longer; behind him was a huge hole.

The spikes that had covered him had all disappeared, melted, and shattered. There was a huge fist mark on his back, the result of Wallace's punch. You could even see the flesh underneath; the flesh on his back was sunken in, charred, and even cooked.

If Dink hadn't come to his rescue at the crucial moment, he might have been pierced through the body by Wallace's punch. The temperature was over a thousand degrees Celsius, close to two thousand degrees Celsius, and his body simply couldn't withstand it.

Unlike Dink, who Armament Haki, he still couldn't withstand Wallace's attacks.

The projectile spikes were incredibly hard, like bullets, and could easily pierce a person's body. However, this previously invincible tactic had no effect on Wallace.

Wallace's steel body constantly emitted temperatures high enough to melt steel; he was like a furnace, and any spikes that landed on him were instantly deflected and melted.

Wallace completely ignored Teyera; once Dink was dealt with, what else could Teyera do?

Therefore, all the pressure was on Dink. Faced with Wallace's frenzied attacks, Dink gradually couldn't hold on. With each punch Wallace threw, Dink felt a wave of heat hitting him.

And it was an extremely high temperature; the skin on Dink's body was twisted and burned.

In their fight, Wallace completely dominated Dink, showcasing his superior physical and coordinated skills. Dink had completely lost the dominance he usually displayed when fighting other opponents.

"How can it be so strong!" Dink's body was already burned. The rolling heat wave hit him, and the air became extremely deadly, making it very difficult for Dink to breathe.

He thought to himself, shocked and somewhat hesitant, with a desire to flee, but Wallace's aggressive approach, clearly aimed at killing him, left him no time to stop.

As a bounty hunter, he was driven by greed and had no sense of right or wrong; everything he did was based on his own interests.

These outsiders Kraken Kingdom of Kraken because they were all tired of their former lives and wanted to settle down.

Many people are like this: pirates and bounty hunters, after acquiring a large amount of wealth, will go to a country, transform themselves into nobles, and enjoy their newfound life.

Noble status can be bought. Although it is only the lowest level of nobility, it still allows one to enter the elite class. Although other nobles may look down on them, they can enjoy some special rights. They have advanced in status and surpassed ordinary people. In some small villages and towns, they can have an unimaginable status.

The captains and vice-captains of the guard, including Dink, all possess titles bestowed upon them by the Kraken Kingdom, but they are not considered nobles because nobility is hereditary and based on bloodline. However, after a few years, one or two generations, they will become true nobles.

"Boss Dink, what should we do? We're no match for this monster. If we keep fighting like this, we'll die. Should we run?" Teyera said to Dink, constantly shooting out her spikes.

Having known Dink for so long, he had a vague idea of what Dink was thinking. Wallace could naturally hear his voice, and he intentionally let Wallace hear it, hoping to stop the fight.

He said that running away was not just about escaping Wallace's clutches, but also about fleeing the Kraken Kingdom, which would result in them being wanted by the Kraken Kingdom, but that was more important than their own lives.

Furthermore, he had a premonition that something major had likely happened in the Kraken Kingdom today, not only from the north of their palace, but also from three other directions; there must have been surprise attacks as well.

Moreover, with their strength, if they can't go anywhere in the West Blue, they can always go to the other three seas. The Kraken Kingdom's reach doesn't extend to those places. Besides, they can return to the Grand Line. No matter what, they can live well and it's better not to die here.

Teyera wanted to convey to Wallace that they didn't want to fight anymore and wanted to surrender.

However, Wallace seemed not to hear him and continued attacking Dink.

Upon hearing Teyera's words, and after a moment of inner turmoil, ignoring the worried looks in his companion's eyes, Dink finally made up his mind in the face of Wallace's fierce attack.

"We're not fighting anymore, we surrender. When we leave, we won't stop you," Dink said earnestly, looking at Wallace.

Seemingly to show Wallace their resolve, Dink loosened his grip and tossed the knife aside.

In that case, Wallace should stop attacking him. After all, although he doesn't know what the Night Pirates' target is, it's definitely related to the Kraken Kingdom and the royal family.

"We can provide you with intelligence, as long as you let us leave."

However, he forgot that the initiative had always been in Wallace's hands, and upon hearing his words, a hint of mockery flashed in Wallace's eyes.

Taking advantage of the moment when Dink lowered his weapon, Wallace suddenly surged forward, the heat emanating from his feet propelling him forward.

Amidst the shocked and bewildered gazes of Dink and Teyera, he charged straight at Dink, unleashing a devastating "Molten Steel Fist!"

A powerful, scorching steel fist was swung with all its might toward Dink's body. Dink Armament Haki to defend, but it only lasted for a second before being broken through by Wallace's fist, which then pierced through Dink's body.

"Dink, boss!" Teyera shouted in shock, her voice trembling with grief.

"Why, why?" Dink was not dead yet, his wide eyes revealing confusion.

"Our Night Pirates have no habit of letting enemies go unpunished. Besides, I didn't agree to your demands. You were my chosen prey, so how could I let you surrender so easily?" Wallace with a faint smile.

The intense heat eroded Dink's body, and Dink couldn't hold on for long before closing his eyes in despair and dying.

Wallace withdrew his fist, looking at Teyera with a hint of surprise in his eyes. "Aren't you going to run?"

Teyera didn't run away as expected; she remained standing there, stunned.

"It's impossible, I can't escape," Teyera muttered in despair. He had witnessed Wallace's speed; how could he possibly escape from Wallace's grasp? Rather than struggling, he might as well just stay like this and reduce the pain.

"You're lucky. I have no intention of killing you." Wallace smiled and slowly walked up to Teyera. Teyera trembled, a terrifying shadow hanging over her heart at Wallace's power.

After a while, he came to his senses, a hint of joy in his eyes, "So, I don't have to die!" Who would want to die when there's a chance to live?

Wallace took out Seastone Handcuffs and cuffed them directly onto Teyera's hands. Teyera was powerless and could barely stand.

"Perhaps." Wallace nodded, a strange glint in his eyes. Things weren't that simple. Knowing Captain Teach as he did, he wouldn't let them off so easily, and he had no intention of recruiting them.

Otherwise, there would be no special order to capture Devil Fruit User alive. Devil Fruit User must have a purpose, and that purpose is related to Devil Fruit.

The eastern battlefield was the battle between Pito and Kaguya.

This battle, like the one on Wallace's side, was completely one-sided, although it wasn't as overwhelming as Wallace's.

Despite being Kaguya elite warrior who had distinguished himself on the battlefield, Kankani was still suppressed by Kaguya in the fight.

Kaguya is a monster of combat, with unparalleled experience in battle. One of her regular training exercises is combat, fighting against other members. Combat is her sustenance and the source of her progress.

Kaguya is a monster who grows stronger with each battle, no matter the pressure she faces.

Kankani launched a relentless attack on Kaguya at the beginning, using his combat experience and Kaguya physical abilities to suppress her. However, he was still unable to overcome Kaguya's body Kaguya was as hard as steel.

However, gradually, in the constant battles, Kaguya began to take the initiative, learning from Kankani's experience, and gradually figuring out Kankani's Kaguya patterns.

And so, Kankani began to be suppressed by Kaguya. He tried to seize the opportunity to counterattack and take the initiative in the battle, but it was all in vain. Every time, Kaguya would break through his defenses.

"Ten Finger Bullet!"

Kaguya's calm voice rang out in Kankani's ear as he watched as Kaguya raised her arm, pointing her ten fingers at him.

The next moment, ten sharp bones extended from the tips of Kaguya's ten fingers, shooting out like bullets at incredible speed, all heading towards Kankani. These bone spurs possessed the speed of bullets.

In Kankani's eyes, ten white, bone-like bullets were approaching him, but his experience told him that no matter which way he dodged, he couldn't avoid them, because these bullets had already predicted the directions he would dodge next.

Even his movement speed was within Kaguya's calculations, and at such close range, how could he possibly dodge? Instinctively, relying on his intuition, he shifted his body to the right, crossed his arms, and used steel arm guards to block in front of him.
