# Knocking Out Momonga to Save Hancock

Tianqi had no idea what Mihawk and the others were thinking. At that moment, Tianqi used the Body Flicker Technique to quickly arrive at Hancock's location. Sure enough, a group of Marines were surrounding Hancock, and what was infuriating was that Hancock already had many wounds on her body.

"I thought you were so powerful, but it turns out you're just all bark and no bite. Looks like I'll be taking down the first Conqueror Pirates today!" The Momonga smiled as he looked at the woman who was putting up a tough fight. At first, he thought she was pretty strong, but as the battle progressed, he realized that she was only as strong as a colonel, someone he could easily crush.

"Tianqi, I never thought I was still so useless. I couldn't even stop the enemy. I guess I'll have to be your crew member in my next life!" Watching the Momonga approach her with his knife, and with no strength left to resist, Hancock closed her eyes in despair. A vice admiral was simply not someone she could contend with.

"Dare to oppose the righteous Navy? In your next life, forget about being a pirate, you'll have a hard time even being a human!" The Momonga shook his head slightly and was about to capture the female pirate.

However, just then, a whooshing sound came from the air, and a weapon flew directly towards the Momonga. The Momonga, who was on guard, immediately raised his knife to defend, but the powerful force of the flying weapon still knocked him away in an instant.

Seeing the familiar weapon in front of her, Hancock immediately smiled. This weapon belonged to Captain Tianqi; he had come to rescue her. However, Hancock's feelings were complicated. Although she was happy that her captain had come to save her, it also meant that they would be completely surrounded by the Navy, and it seemed that things would not end well today.

"Hancock, you were too impulsive this time. If you can't even see your own strength, then there's nothing to talk about in the future. With your strength, turning around and running away from a vice admiral is the best choice. Running away is not shameful; what's shameful is not seeing yourself clearly, do you understand?" Tianqi landed in front of Hancock and said calmly.

"Snap! Snap!"

Upon seeing someone suddenly appear, the surrounding navy immediately loaded their guns, ready to fire hundreds of bullets at once and riddle Tianqi with holes should he dare to act recklessly.

"I understand, Tianqi, but if I encounter this situation again, I still won't run away. It's worth sacrificing myself to Conqueror Pirates!" Although what she said made a lot of sense, Hancock would still make the same choice for Lord Tianqi even if it happened again. Her slave life was saved by Tianqi, and it was worth sacrificing everything for him.

"Wrong! As my comrade, I, Uchiha Tianqi, would never sacrifice my comrade to save my own life. That's my bottom line!" Tianqi shook his head and rejected Hancock's actions. In this world, loyalty is paramount, and he, Uchiha Tianqi, could never abandon his comrades.

"Heaven... Heaven... Tianqi!" Upon hearing this, Hancock's eyes lit up with love. Following such a captain made her feel incredibly safe.

Immediately, Tianqi raised his right hand and activated his healing Ninjutsu, enveloping Hancock in green healing energy. Instantly, Hancock's wounds were completely healed, and if it weren't for the remaining bloodstains, it would be impossible to tell that she had been injured.

"Don't underestimate me, Captain. Abandoning our comrades is completely unnecessary. They're so trashy, they're not worth our time to run away from!" Tianqi slowly walked over to the navy in front of him.

"Attack! Shoot! Kill him!" Seeing that Tianqi was about to make a move, a colonel shouted loudly. Uchiha Tianqi's fearsome reputation had already spread throughout the Marine Headquarters. Not to mention a colonel like him, even rear admirals and vice admirals were terrified of Uchiha Tianqi. This was the deterrent power of an admiral-level expert.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!..."

The marines opened fire instantly, hundreds of bullets flying towards Tianqi. It has to be said that this kind of attack was really boring. Any pirate with a little strength was not afraid of bullets. Of course, that was only a small number of bullets. A large number of bullets would be quite difficult to deal with. However, bullets were meaningless to Tianqi.

"Annihilation!" Tianqi raised his hand and activated the Time Force. In an instant, the bullet was corroded and disappeared. The marines were also eroded by the Time Force in astonished eyes, aging rapidly before falling down and turning into dust and disappearing completely.

Of course, two colonels were still alive. Tianqi always left a few people behind to spread the word about his terrifying strength. When these two colonels saw that Uchiha Tianqi had killed hundreds of marines with just a slight wave of his hand, leaving no trace of their bodies, they had no intention of resisting at all. They were so frightened that they fled in a frenzy.

The Momonga wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Seeing that his subordinates were gone and he was the only one left, he became anxious. Uchiha Tianqi was very powerful, and if the Sengoku generals didn't arrive soon, he was afraid he would die here today.

"Uchiha Tianqi, you'd better not make another mistake. If you stop resisting now, you still have a chance to survive. If you continue to fight the Navy, you will not have a good end!" As Zephyr's disciple, Momonga would not go so far as to kill him, which is not much different from his mentor Zephyr's approach.

"A good ending? Hahaha... This is the funniest joke I've ever heard! Uchiha Tianqi fate is in my own hands! You're not enough to judge me!" Tianqi laughed loudly and walked towards the Momonga.

As Uchiha Tianqi him, the Momonga gripped the hilt of his sword tightly with both hands, as if only this could give him a sense of security, but his retreating feet indicated that Tianqi was putting a lot of pressure on him.

Tianqi wielded the Heavenly Cloud Sword, his sword intent rapidly condensing onto the blade. With the experience of fighting against Ryuma of Ryuda, Tianqi became increasingly adept at using swordsmanship.

"A great swordsman! How could this be!" The Momonga was also a master swordsman, and he immediately recognized that this was an ability that only a great swordsman could use. He immediately unleashed his own sword intent, hoping to block the attack.

"King's Double Sword Dance!" Two streams of sword energy were rapidly unleashed, rushing towards the Momonga.

This move was inspired by Tianqi's battle with Ryuma of Ryuda. It is a new move developed using his own speed and sword intent energy, in which he quickly swings the Heavenly Cloud Sword twice in an instant, simultaneously unleashing two bursts of sword intent energy.

"Boom!"

"Ah! How can there be such a big difference!" The Momonga, who was trying to fight back, was sent flying by the double energy in an instant. It was in that instant that he realized that he and Uchiha Tianqi were not on the same level at all. The difference between the two was like heaven and earth. It was not that the Momonga was weak, but that Tianqi.

Hancock's eyes widened in disbelief. The vice admiral she couldn't even budge with her full strength had been defeated in a single move. Tianqi was simply too powerful. At the same time, Hancock realized that her captain had become even stronger.

"Can't even withstand one move, a Marine Vice Admiral is nothing special!" Tianqi glanced at the fallen Momonga, but didn't finish him off. He could tell that Momonga had held back against Hancock. With Vice Admiral Momonga's strength, killing Hancock would have been too easy, but he hadn't gone for the kill. In that case, Tianqi was sparing his life.

"I'm sorry, Tianqi, I've caused you trouble again..." Hancock looked remorseful as the battle ended.

If she hadn't gone out to sell things today, she wouldn't have attracted the Navy's attention. She killed hundreds of Navy personnel today, so Tianqi's bounty is likely to go up again. The Navy will definitely keep pursuing Tianqi relentlessly from now on, and the culprit behind all of this is Hancock, so she feels very guilty.

"Don't say anything stupid. As the captain, I will definitely protect the crew. And when I rescued you from the Sabaody Archipelago, I decided to stand against the Navy. Those Navy people wearing the cloak of justice don't deserve the word 'justice' at all!" Tianqi comforted him gently.

Tianqi also held the hypocrites in utter contempt for the navy. The fact that they openly bought and sold slaves was enough to make him very unhappy. It was one thing to buy and sell criminals, but to buy and sell innocent people like Hancock was something he couldn't stand.

Without saying anything more, Tianqi immediately led Hancock toward the location where the Conqueror was docked. However, upon arriving, instead of Shanks waiting for them to set sail, they found more than a dozen warships surrounding the Conqueror, with a large number of navy personnel pointing their guns at Shanks.
