Shocking Super Regeneration!
"This is truly unexpected," Shepard Saint Somaz said, frowning. "I didn't expect that Saint Gilm's Devil Fruit ability would be broken."
How exactly did that Blood-Eyed Ninja manage to do that?
Could it also be some kind of ability involving rules?
If that's the case... this guy is even more monstrous than they imagined!
"It seems this Blood-Eyed Ninja is even more powerful than we imagined," said Figarland Saint Shamrock.
"Even if they are incredibly powerful, they could never be a match for our God's Knights," Figarland Saint Galin said calmly.
As the leader of the God's Knights, he knew very well just how strong these people were.
Hearing his leader's words, Saint Somaz turned to look at him and said, "Are you planning to take action yourself?"
If the leader is willing to take action, then those mere Blood-Eyed Ninja are nothing to fear!
"I'm not interested," Saint Galin said.
Although the opponent is indeed quite capable, it's not enough to warrant his personal intervention.
Saint Somaz paused for a moment upon hearing this, then said, "Then why don't I go?"
Saint Gilm's Devil Fruit ability is indeed incredibly overpowered, but if Nightmare's ability is broken, his combat strength will be greatly reduced.
So it's better to let him go.
"Your abilities are not suited for this kind of battlefield," Saint Galin said.
"All right."
Saint Somaz understood what his leader meant. It wasn't that his abilities were unsuitable for the battlefield, but rather that his strength was similar to Saint Gilm's, so going there might be the same.
Just then, Saint Galin said, "That Borsalino guy should be here soon."
Saint Shamrock glanced at the clock upon hearing this, then nodded and said, "Judging by the time, we should be arriving soon."
After pondering for a moment, Saint Galin said, "If Borsalino and Gunko can't defeat the Blood-Eyed Ninja even if they join forces, then you should go and help them solve this problem."
"Yes!"
"Phew~"
After letting out a long sigh of relief, Xi Yan said, "Finally, we've dealt with all these troublesome things."
The Kyojitsu Kuu Kyuu is such a powerful weapon! It can take down an immortal Black Creature with a single arrow!
"In that case, that Devil Fruit User won't be able to cause me any trouble, right?" Xi Yan laughed.
After putting away the Xi Yan Kyojitsu Kuu Kyuu, Xi Yan turned his gaze to the magnificent buildings in the distance.
"So, what's that place for?" Xi Yan asked, stroking his chin.
Why does it look more magnificent than the mansions of the Celestial Dragons?
After pondering for a moment, Xi Yan muttered, "Could it be that there are also hierarchical divisions among the Celestial Dragons?"
"It's not impossible."
Staring at Xi Yan in the distance, he wondered whether he should go and take a look at that place.
Just then, a strange sound reached Xi Yan's ears, which immediately attracted Xi Yan attention.
"Um?"
Xi Yan turned to look in the direction the sound came from, then looked surprised and said, "What the hell is that?"
At that moment, in his line of sight, a headless creature was slowly rising up, leaning backward, creating a very eerie scene.
Xi Yan:???
What the hell is that?
At that moment, Gunko stood up completely and then turned around to look in the direction of Xi Yan!
Seeing this, Xi Yan immediately frowned.
"To still sense my presence even without a head, that's really..." Xi Yan hadn't finished speaking when he sensed the peculiar energy on Gunko's neck.
The energy was rapidly repairing Gunko's body, and soon her head was condensed!
Upon seeing this, Xi Yan exclaimed in shock, "Super Regeneration?"
The body can repair itself so quickly; calling it Super Regeneration wouldn't be an exaggeration!
"No, that's not right... to be precise, it should be immortality!" Xi Yan said.
He had previously reduced his opponent to just their lower body, but the opponent still managed to survive...
This means that the other party may also be an immortal being!
'It seems that the opponent didn't use a clone to dodge my attack the first time, but rather used this ability to restore their body,' Xi Yan thought to himself.
This explains why the other party was able to survive such an attack.
Thinking this, Xi Yan rushed towards Gunko and stopped only when he was near her.
Then, Xi Yan said, "I never imagined that there was someone else in this world besides me who possessed such an ability."
Upon hearing Xi Yan's words, Gunko, now fully recovered, sneered, "Immortality isn't your exclusive privilege, Blood-Eyed Ninja!!"
Blessed by Im-sama, they too possess immortality!
"No wonder you dared to stop me."
The reason this guy, who doesn't even have the strength of Admiral, dared to stop him is probably because of this.
That's true. People who can't die naturally won't be afraid of fighting, right?
However... immortality might not be effective against him!
Thinking of this, Xi Yan summoned Susanoo in its half-body form and also took out the Kido Time Piercing Spear.
Seeing this, Gunko's eyes flashed with wariness, and he said, "Are you planning to use that move to attack me?"
"Heh, I'd like to know if this move can suppress your Super Regeneration," Xi Yan sneered.
The other party's immortality was very different from his.
His Kido Mitama Son repaired itself in an instant, while the opponent's ability was more like Super Regeneration, only with added immortality.
Even if only the lower half of the body remains after being attacked, this ability can still allow the body to regenerate...
However, this ability has a drawback: it is vulnerable to attacks that can suppress the ability to regenerate!
And this kind of attack is precisely what he possesses.
By using the unique properties of the Yomitsu Toki to suppress the opponent's regenerative abilities, you can render them unable to fight!
"Then let's give it a try," Gunko said. "Let's see if you can hit me!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a giant arrow appeared beneath Gunko's feet, lifting her up and sending her soaring into the sky!
"Whoosh~"
In the blink of an eye, Gunko flew high into the sky, looking down at Xi Yan.
"You're flying again," Xi Yan said, looking at Gunko in the air. "Did you think I couldn't do anything to you once you were in the air?"
Gunko merely sneered at this and said nothing.
"This is really troublesome," Xi Yan said.
If Susanoo activate its final stage, he could just fly up and take down this guy.
Thinking of this, a hint of helplessness appeared in Xi Yan's eyes.
'Fine, using Ninjutsu on her will have the same effect.'
With that in mind, Xi Yan released Susanoo and then used the Shadow Clone Technique to create two clones.
"Um?"
Seeing the two clones that suddenly appeared beside Xi Yan, Gunko frowned and asked, "What is this guy planning to do now?"
Does he want the clone to attack her with Ninjutsu?
Just as Gunko was wondering, the clone below moved.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
"Buzz buzz buzz~"
As the clone finished speaking, a huge whirlpool of flowing water appeared beside him, and then condensed into an enormous Water Dragon!
"Boom!!"
A massive Water Dragon rose up, lifting the three of them up and rushing towards Gunko!
"So that's what you were planning to do!"
Gunko immediately saw through Xi Yan's intention and said, "The idea is good, but its mobility is far inferior to mine!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gunko swiftly flew to the side.
Just then, a High-pressure Water Line shot down from below, heading straight for Gunko's head!
"Don't even think about it!"
Upon sensing the attack, Gunko immediately moved the arrow to his side, forcibly diverting Xi Yan's attack.
"Sizzle sizzle~"
The High-pressure Water Line, once moved, relentlessly destroyed the buildings below, severing a building in the blink of an eye!
"Puff!"
"What...?!"
The guards below, still fighting, were dumbfounded as they watched the building being easily severed by the High-pressure Water Line.
"I can't believe my eyes! The building was cut in half by the water?!" the guard exclaimed in shock. "How is this possible?!"
"This must have been done by that Blood-Eyed Ninja!"
One of the guards, who had seen the Wanted Order for Xi Yan, said with a grim expression, "This should be his Water Release Technique!"
"Blood-Eyed Ninja?"
Hearing his words, the others turned their attention to the direction from which the roaring sound came, and then saw an enormous Water Dragon in the air!
"What the hell is this?!"
Water Dragon created using Water Release Technique...?
"What a hassle."
Seeing the Giant Water Dragon getting closer and closer, Gunko said, "It seems we have no choice but to go higher..."
"Whoosh~"
Before she could finish speaking, she saw two golden arrows fly out and approach her at an extremely fast speed!
"Did you think I'd fall for that trick again?!" Gunko shouted.
As she spoke, she imbued the arrowheads with Haki, and then fiercely hurled them at the two arrows!
The next moment...
"Clang!"
The two attacks collided, instantly producing a metallic clang.
Seeing this, Xi Yan did not hesitate to detonate the arrow of the Kyojitsu Kuu Kyuu in advance, intending to use it to attack Gunko!
"Burst!"
"Boom!!"
Pale golden flames erupted and quickly engulfed Gunko.
Sensing the threat, Gunko immediately held the arrow in front of him, simultaneously enveloping it in his Haki.
"Boom!!"
Gunko, who had blocked the attack, let out a long sigh of relief.
"Next... um?"
Gunko, who had used his Observation Haki to detect Xi Yan's movements, did not hesitate to maneuver the arrow backward and at the same time removed the arrow blocking his way.
"Trying to ambush me at this time? What are you doing...?"
"Puff!"
Before she could finish speaking, the Water Severing Wave unleashed by Xi Yan Clone pierced through her body, and then cut her in half at the waist!
"Puff!"
Gunko, who had suffered a severe injury, immediately spurted out blood, and his face turned somewhat pale.
"Another sneak attack..." Gunko coughed and said, "You despicable bastard!"
Xi Yan:???
How could this guy have the nerve to say something like that?
She attacked herself too, okay?
However, Xi Yan had no intention of arguing with her, after all, now was an opportunity!
With that in mind, Xi Yan dispelled the Kyojitsu Kuu Kyuu in his hand without hesitation, and then summoned the Kido Time Piercing Spear.
After finishing this task, Xi Yan quickly approached Gunko by riding on the Water Dragon, raised the Kido Time Piercing Spear in his hand, and intended to skewer the other party like a candied hawthorn!
Just then, a beam of yellow light rushed over from a distance at an extremely fast speed, arriving beside the two of them in the blink of an eye.
Borsalino glanced at the Qi Shi Kido Time Piercing Spear in Xi Yan's hand and kicked it without hesitation!
"Clang!"
The two attacks collided, instantly unleashing a terrifying explosion.
"Boom!!"
Gunko, struck by the shockwave of the explosion, was thrown off the arrow and plummeted toward the distant ground.
However, just before she was about to land, she caught herself with an arrow, thus avoiding falling to the ground.
Then, she fixed her gaze on Borsalino's retreating figure, frowning as she said, "That's slow enough."
If this guy had arrived even a fraction later, I would have been in serious trouble!
"Oh~"
Borsalino, staring intently at Xi Yan, said, "To actually dare to come to Mary Geoise all by himself and cause trouble, really... wow!"
At this moment, Borsalino even felt a bit of admiration for Xi Yan.
After all... this guy did something he'd thought about but never dared to do!!!
"Kizaru, huh?"
After glancing at Kizaru's recovered foot, Xi Yan said, "I didn't expect you to heal your injury so quickly."
Although I don't know if my attack broke Kizaru's bones, it should at least have caused a fracture.
Does this injury really require a period of rest?!
"I am Marine Admiral," Borsalino said. "Isn't it normal for me to recover faster?"
Even if it were a broken rib, let alone that kind of injury, these days would be enough for him to regain his strength.
After all... his physique is monstrous!!
Xi Yan paused for a moment upon hearing this, then said, "That's true."
Even Luffy's recovery speed is frighteningly fast, so it goes without saying that this kind of monster-level character can recover even faster.
So... it's normal that this guy recovered in such a short time!!
"Blood-Eyed Ninja," Borsalino stared into Xi Yan's eyes and said, "What is your purpose in suddenly attacking the Holy Land?!"
"Of course, it's to release the slaves here," Xi Yan said without hesitation. "And incidentally, to give the World Government a little shock!"
Upon hearing Xi Yan's words, Borsalino's eyes flickered, and he subconsciously wanted to smile.
But when he thought about the faction he belonged to, he forced himself to keep a straight face.
Then he said, "So you're actually planning to do something like this?"
"That's really... unbelievable!"
Xi Yan:???
Was this guy trying to laugh just now?
The Marine Admiral actually wanted to laugh after hearing what he said?
Is this reasonable?
After glancing at Borsalino, who was staring at him with a serious expression, Xi Yan fell into deep thought.
