"He actually cleaved that monster in two with a single strike! How did he do that?!"
"This man's strength is truly terrifying!"
"He's too powerful... Is he really our aid...?"
The soldiers watching were so astonished that they forgot they were on the battlefield.
However, the upper and lower body of Cloudman Sturdy No. 1 quickly closed up again, and a faint blue light flashed in its eyes. This Flying Slash had not caused it any damage.
"What a strange guy. Does he have the power of automatic healing, or is it the Logia Devil Fruit power that Captain Buggy mentioned...?" Cabaji frowned.
However, his move clearly attracted the hatred of Sturdy No. 1, whose eyes flashed blue again, and his floating body turned into a blur as he rushed over, his two white fists slamming down.
" Paper Art. Lianyun!"
Cabaji nimbly shifted his body, dodging the opponent's relentless attacks, and swung his Sakura Blizzard forward, striking the arm of the Sturdy No. 1.
Bang!
A crisp metallic clang came from its arm, and it quickly retaliated with a powerful straight punch in its other hand. Cabaji swung his sword to block and retreated.
He stared at the Sturdy No. 1 before him, muttering to himself, "It has such hardness... Did I really split it in two just now...?"
"It's no use. Sturdy No. 1 possesses two characteristics of clouds: dispersion and convergence. Its surface even incorporates a type of keratinous particle called Seastone from Island Cloud. The hardness of these keratinous particles is far beyond what you can destroy. You bunch of annoying Blue Sea pirates who are like flies, get out of my way!!"
Surrounded by several mechs, Katesu stepped forward and coldly stared at Cabaji in front of him.
"It seems you can command these machines... You must be one of Bag's men?" Cabaji's eyes swept over the other man, noticing a subtle detail in his words, "You? You should have met my companions before..."
"Hmph." Katesu sneered. "You seem to know quite a bit... As for your companions, they're probably long gone."
"Is that so? Then you're underestimating them too much. The credibility of a child's 'end of the world' is much higher than what you say..." Cabaji narrowed his eyes slightly, bent his right arm into a "C" shape, with the back of the blade facing his arm, and held Sakura Blizzard in a half-relaxed state. Suddenly, his muscles bulged, and he exerted a violent force!
"Divine Concealment. Arrow Annihilation!!"
In an instant, a nearly translucent Flying Slash out from Sakura Blizzard, hurtling towards Katesu Su like an arrow released from a bow.
The Sturdy No. 1 suddenly intercepted the semi-transparent Flying Slash. It clasped its hands together, and instantly its hands expanded into a white shield to block the Flying Slash. The shield formed by its hands shook, shattering the transparent Flying Slash into ripples that spread outwards.
"Another troublesome Blue Sea pirate!" Katesu paused for half a second, cursed under his breath, and then ordered the mechs beside him, "You go deal with this Blue Sea People. Sturdy No. 1, bypass him and complete the mission!"
After the order was given, several mechs rushed towards Cabaji at high speed.
"Good timing!"
Cabaji, not to be outdone, stepped forward, his Sakura Blizzard dancing in the air like cherry blossom petals, its gleaming light forming countless crosses, like a meticulously crafted net. " Great Chaos Cross!"
In an instant, the two sides passed each other. The necks of these mechs tilted upwards like frogs' necks, their bodies emitted a crackling blue light, their movements became stiff, they took two slow, hesitant steps forward, and then collapsed to the ground with a thud.
But Cabaji didn't stop, charging towards Katesu with renewed vigor, "If I take care of you here, all the problems will be solved!"
However, things were not that simple. The Sturdy No. 1 he was trying to bypass now stood in front of him like a small tower, its two arms shooting out like rubber. No, not rubber, because of the dispersed nature of the clouds, its arms looked like rubber constantly stretching out.
Faced with the Sturdy No. 1 blocking his way, Cabaji had no choice but to change his target. However, this change in attack allowed his opponent to entangle him tightly, making it impossible for him to advance any further.
Katesu's face immediately darkened. One enemy after another appeared out of nowhere, blocking his way. But these enemies were all so powerful that his supposedly superior technology was completely useless in front of them. This angered him and dealt a merciless blow to his pride.
Buggy, who had been following the scent of Katesu all along, finally arrived late. The Flying Dragon Chicken stopped moving after arriving at this Divine Forgiveness place. The strong smell of blood had disrupted its sense of smell. Or perhaps, the target it was tracking was right here.
"Hey, is there another one coming from overhead?"
"Could it be another accomplice sent by Nilek?"
Everyone be careful!
The warriors of Bailie Island and Sifa Island were even more vigilant on the battlefield than before, daring not to be careless in the slightest. This one monster could easily defeat a commander of a hundred men; if another one of this caliber were to appear...
"This must be the place where the three gods clashed, Bander mentioned. The thick stench of blood really makes me not want to go down here..." Buggy glanced down, his eyes suddenly lighting up. " Cabaji and... Kaya, and that guy named Katesu, but that Cloud-Cloud Devil Fruit User named Bag doesn't seem to be here..."
He slowly descended on his Flying Dragon Chicken.
"Uncle Buggy!" Kaya also saw Buggy; she was next to Richie, waving from afar.
Because Kaya had arrived with Cabaji, and Cabaji had clearly shown a willingness to help, the warriors hadn't made things difficult for her. But when they heard her joyful shouts towards the man, they were immediately invigorated... he was one of their allies!
Cabaji glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, swung his sword, and forced the entangled Sturdy No. 1 back a few steps. His face was grim, but a hint of joy appeared at the corner of his mouth. " Captain Buggy, I knew you were alright..."
"I won't get into trouble so easily..." A cunning glint flashed in Buggy's eyes. "Now we should be worried about that guy over there."
Katesu's face turned extremely ugly. "You're still alive? That's unexpected... It seems Nilek and the group of Blue Sea People with you are also safe and sound... Damn Nilek, he must have done something..."
