"Damn it, do I chase him or not?"

Luo Sa's face darkened. Capone Bege was definitely a threat. Now they had a score to settle, and there was no way to resolve it peacefully.

"I can't let this threat remain!"

Luo Sa looked toward Mafia headquarters, and the answer came to him.

Luo Sa didn't hesitate. He jumped down right after him. If Capone Bege really chose to set off the bomb indoors, he could always turn into Gastly and escape.

He was very confident in Gastly's ability to get away!

"Hm? Isn't that the kid? Did he find out where the Mafia boss is hiding?"

Sok happened to spot Luo Sa moving. His gaze flickered, and then he quietly followed Luo Sa as well.

Beneath the high platform appeared to be an air-raid shelter. It was pitch-black inside, making it impossible to see the surroundings.

But this was naturally no challenge for a Winged Gull with the Keen Eye Ability.

Even in the darkness, Luo Sa caught sight of Capone Bege up ahead.

Without hesitation, Luo Sa used Soru and closely pursued Capone Bege.

"Damn it, he really won't stop chasing me! But... since you came right to me, why not help me out again?" Capone Bege's eyes flickered as he darted into one passageway after another, unwittingly drawing closer to a certain place.

In a secluded corner of the air-raid shelter stood a mysterious door. A dozen or so men in black stood in two rows outside it, all holding guns.

"Who's there?" one of the men in black suddenly shouted. They all turned around and raised their guns in unison.

A moment later, Luo Sa suddenly appeared.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The men in black didn't hesitate. They pulled their triggers, sending bullets speeding toward Luo Sa!

"Hm? An ambush?" Luo Sa's gaze sharpened. He didn't have time to worry about where Capone Bege had gone. With Soru, he appeared in an instant in front of one of the men in black.

"Wing Chop!" A flash of white light passed, blood sprayed, and a bloody gash appeared on the man's neck.

"Enemy attack!" The men in black recovered and opened fire, shouting to warn their comrades behind the door.

The next moment, the door flew open, and a stream of Mafia members dressed in black charged out, surrounding Luo Sa.

At that moment, Luo Sa understood that Capone Bege had set him up.

But did they really think these enemies were enough to take him down?

A faint smile touched Luo Sa's lips as he darted forward once more. The wings of his Winged Gull Half-Beastman form gleamed white as they reaped one life after another.

Bang!

Suddenly, a gunshot rang out, different from those fired by the men in black.

A bullet flashed past. Even with Luo Sa's reflexes, it grazed his cheek, drawing a thin line of blood.

"A Sniper!" Luo Sa's gaze sharpened as he looked inside the doorway. His Keen Eye spotted a sniper hiding in the shadows.

The sniper noticed Luo Sa looking his way and fired again. At the same time, countless Mafia members wielding greatswords suddenly surged forward.

"This place is way too cramped. I hate it!" Luo Sa leaped into the air, flipped backward, and planted his feet against the ceiling. He pushed off hard, shooting straight forward, his wings like a Reaper's scythe as they reaped one life after another.

"This guy's even stronger against a crowd than in a one-on-one fight!" Capone Bege watched Luo Sa fighting from a concealed corner, his gaze flickering.

It would be incredibly difficult to take that thing away right under Luo Sa's nose!

After dozens of minutes of fighting, more than a hundred people, including the sniper, had fallen to Luo Sa.

At first, Luo Sa had been somewhat repulsed by the blood and corpses, but after killing one person after another, he had gotten used to it.

Calmly stepping over the bodies and through the blood, he looked toward a staircase leading underground.

From a low-ranking lackey, he'd learned that the Mafia boss was down there.

Without the slightest hesitation, Luo Sa descended the stairs. At the same time, he readied all his mental strength. If anything seemed wrong, he would turn into Gastly and escape through the walls!

The instant he reached the bottom of the stairs and came into view, countless gunshots rang out again, bullets flying everywhere.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The barrage slammed into the stairs, but there was no one there.

"Whew, this underground kingdom is huge. It's much more comfortable down here!" Luo Sa transformed into the half-meter-tall full Winged Gull form and flew beneath the six-meter-high ceiling.

"Hurricane!" Luo Sa muttered. The Winged Gull flapped both wings, and a gale instantly took shape, crashing down on the Mafia lackeys with the force of a mountain bearing down on them.

It was as if disaster had struck. The gale swept everyone off their feet and hurled them into the opposite wall. They hit it hard, their heads split and bleeding, and one by one they passed out.

"A Devil Fruit User!" In the middle of the room, a Mafia member stood with his greatsword planted firmly on the ground. The blade had carved a long furrow across the floor, and only then had he barely managed to withstand Luo Sa's Hurricane.

"You're... the Mafia's senior officer, Cas's right-hand man, Great Sword Jonki!" Luo Sa's eyes lit up.

Zephyr's files had information about him too. He was worth 500 Military Merit!

"Marines, you're all damned!" Jonki gritted his teeth as he glared at Luo Sa. Thinking of how the three brothers had worked so hard to build the Mafia, only for it to be destroyed here, filled him with unwillingness!

Even if I die, I'll take a few Marines down with me! Jonki roared inwardly. He held his greatsword to the side, then leaped into the air and swung it fiercely at Luo Sa!

"This strength should be on the level of a Marine Headquarters lieutenant commander, the same as Sakartam!" Luo Sa had his answer, and he couldn't help taking Jonki seriously.

After all, he had nearly suffered a heavy loss at Sakartam's hands. He couldn't be sure whether Jonki had any hidden tricks up his sleeve.

"Wing Chop!" Jonki's greatsword wasn't something Luo Sa needed to dodge. He met it head-on with Wing Chop.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of clashes rang out. Jonki was sent crashing back to the ground, while Luo Sa remained steady in midair!

"Not bad strength. If that's all you've got, then you can die now!" As Luo Sa spoke, he unleashed two Air Blades.

"You're the one who's going to die!" Jonki roared and swung his sword, shattering both wind blades in midair with a thunderous boom.

At the same time, a dark figure suddenly darted out from the shadows in a corner, heading straight for Luo Sa!
