Seeing the pirates being cut down by Pirate Hunter Zoro, Gin the Man-Demon rushed toward Captain Krieg and immediately intercepted him.

He blocked the powerful Three-Sword Style swordsman with his own tonfa-mounted iron balls.

His Demon Man Combat Style was actually being suppressed by this pirate hunter's Three-Sword Style, which left him deeply shocked.

This was just a young pirate hunter who had only recently reached adulthood and had no bounty!

How could he be so strong!

"Hurry up and attack! Stop him!!"

Krieg kept pushing the pirate underlings around him forward, solely to stall Daddy, this god of slaughter, and drain his stamina.

But seeing so many of their comrades die at the hands of Daddy, these underlings were terrified; their faces turned pale, their bodies trembled, and they had long since begun to think of fleeing!

This pirate was simply too terrifying!

"Get in there! Whoever dares to retreat, this Admiral will execute them!"

Krieg immediately fired his gun to kill a fleeing pirate, revealing a terrifying expression like a demon, scaring the pirate underlings into gritting their teeth and pushing forward!

Only then did Krieg show a satisfied expression; he raised his gun again, aiming at that bastard Daddy, ready to fire a cold shot for a sneak attack at any moment.

He had already realized that this bastard Daddy was a Devil Fruit user, and one with the ability to be impervious to blades and bullets, so he had to find a critical opening!

He touched a Poison Gas Bomb at his waist, but seeing so many of his men surrounding and killing Daddy, he had to hold back; otherwise, it wouldn't be worth it if he poisoned all his own subordinates!

However, the situation that followed was hard for him to accept: the bastard Daddy seemed incapable of fatigue, showing no signs of exhaustion even after an hour of slaughter.

This caused the morale of the Krieg Pirates to drop to freezing point, and their casualties had already exceeded half.

Added to the fleet already destroyed by the Big Daddy Pirates earlier, their numbers were now below two thousand, and under the massacre by the Big Daddy Pirates, they were still dwindling, approaching fifteen hundred.

The entire port of Debo Island could be described as a river of blood with corpses strewn across the field, causing the remaining pirate underlings to suffer a mental breakdown.

Fleeing pirates appeared constantly, and even Krieg's gunfire could not deter them.

Seeing this, Krieg knew he couldn't let things continue like this, and he finally swung his Great War Spear to charge at Daddy.

Krieg's move finally reignited a glimmer of hope among the pirate underlings.

"Clang!"

Krieg's near-sneak attack, a heavy swing of the Great War Spear, slammed into Daddy, but the appearance of a barrier rendered the surprise attack futile.

"So you've finally decided to make a move? Coward!"

Daddy shoved Krieg away violently. At this moment, he was drenched in blood, his hair matted with it, which he had slicked back into a bloody pompadour. Having discarded his duster because it was soaked through, he stood bare-chested, revealing his knotted muscles.

"You can't have much strength left!!"

Krieg grinned, seeing that the hand Daddy used to hold his sword was trembling slightly, surely indicating he had reached a state of fatigue.

This guy had actually cut down seven or eight hundred of his men in just one hour, which made his heart ache.

After all, he had already recruited all the strong pirates in the nearby seas, and he had no idea how long it would take to restore his fleet of five thousand!

His plan to conquer the Grand Line might also be delayed, and all of this was thanks to this Daddy!

"More than enough to finish you off!"

Daddy grinned. He was trembling with the excitement of the slaughter, not from a lack of strength; someone who could cultivate Armament Haki wouldn't have a weak constitution!

They had only been fighting for an hour!

"Then come on!"

Equipped with several layers of armor, Krieg was also very confident in his own defense.

"I've cut enough for today! I'm going to change the way I kill you! Are you ready to die!"

Daddy sheathed his Sandai Kitetsu, revealed an excited smile, and began to use his Barrier-Barrier Fruit ability.

'Barrier: Susanoo: First Stage: Unit Zero!'

Pieces of barrier armor appeared on his body and began to combine, forming a mecha that looked several times cooler than Mr. 3's Candle Champion or Cracker's Biscuit Soldiers, filled with a heavy mechanical aesthetic.

Most importantly, it could shine brilliantly, just like the diamond body of the Glint-Glint Fruit.

This was a move Daddy had put a lot of thought into developing!

Mecha robots were the romance of a man!

"What is this thing!!"

Krieg looked at the four-to-five-meter-tall transparent mecha giant with some panic, swallowing his saliva involuntarily.

Meanwhile, Zoro, who was fighting Gin the Man-Demon, saw the appearance of the mecha and his eyes lit up; he had been envious ever since Daddy started developing it.

The next moment, Gin's fierce attack struck again, forcing him to focus on dealing with this enemy.

Kuro had long since stopped his indiscriminate 'Shakushi' ultimate, using Silent Step to hunt down those resisting in the crowd.

Protected by four men, the El Drago Sonic Cannon was invincible; wherever the sound waves reached, pirates perished, blasting away quite a few of them.

On the other side, the orange-haired girl, who had finished her theft and was waiting for an opportunity to retreat, had just arrived at the port and saw the hellish, cruel battlefield.

She almost vomited; the various states of death of the pirates and the flying flesh and blood gave even this little cat burglar a psychological trauma.

Was all of this caused by that Big Daddy Pirates crew?

Then she saw the notorious hegemon of the East Blue, Krieg, being grabbed by the leg by a robot-like monster as if he were a stray kitten or puppy, smashed left and right against the ground in a truly miserable display, and finally tossed away.

As it turned out, the direction he was thrown was exactly where she was hiding, which made her pupils shrink in terror.

"BOOM!"

Krieg's body was smashed into the building, the wall collapsing into ruins with a roar and sending countless stones flying, while the orange-haired woman behind the wall retreated in panic.

Although she avoided the danger of being crushed, the bag on her shoulder was torn by the flying debris, and a large amount of gold and jewelry spilled out instantly.

The massive commotion caused countless pirates to turn their attention toward the battle between these two captains, and the thief hiding inside the building was immediately discovered.

Being stared at directly by so many pirates made Nami's scalp tingle with terror, but she still gritted her teeth, quickly clawing at the treasure on the ground, hoping to grab a little before fleeing immediately.

But the next moment, a mecha appeared before her with a thunderous roar, which made her limbs stiffen and her face turn pale as she slowly looked up at the giant.

However, the giant seemed to pay no mind to the orange-haired girl; instead, it dug Krieg out from the ruins and grabbed his entire head in one hand!

Nami was so frightened she turned to run, but a massive war lance slammed into her path, scaring her so badly she wet her pants.

She turned her head stiffly, only to see a suit of golden armor smash heavily right beside her.

It was clear that this East Blue hegemon had no power to resist before this mecha, as his armor and weapons were being ripped off piece by piece!
