Luffy looked at Uncle Rayleigh, who was holding Admiral Kizaru back, and said, "That uncle is amazing. He can actually hit the body we couldn't hit before."
"Luffy, let's get out of here quickly!" Usopp reminded him urgently as he carried the utterly exhausted Zoro on his back.
Sentomaru caught up and said, "You think I'll let you get away? PX-2, pursue them."
Having received the order, the Pacifista immediately began pursuing the Straw Hat Pirates.
As Rayleigh rapidly exchanged blows with Kizaru, he said weakly, "Looks like I really am old! I can't even spare a hand to go help them."
"What are you talking about? Focus on the opponent in front of you! I am an admiral of Marine Headquarters!" Kizaru said lecherously as he launched a fierce assault on Dark King Rayleigh.
Just as the Pacifista was about to strike Usopp, who was carrying Zoro, the real Shichibukai, Tyrant Kuma, appeared.
Zoro's eyes widened. "That guy... is the real one."
"Disappear!" Bartholomew Kuma removed his gloves and sent the Pacifista PX-2 flying with a slap.
Seeing this, the Straw Hat Pirates all realized that the true Shichibukai, Bartholomew Kuma, had arrived.
Yet that only made them even more desperate. They had struggled so much against a fake; if they faced the real one, wouldn't they be even more powerless to resist??
Sentomaru roared, "Kuma, what the hell are you doing??"
Kizaru and Rayleigh both noticed what was happening over there!!
Kizaru said lecherously, yet with confusion, "Why did Bartholomew Kuma suddenly come here?"
As Kizaru was puzzled!
Bartholomew Kuma vanished from where he stood and appeared between Kizaru and Rayleigh as they fought.
Facing Rayleigh, he whispered a few words into Rayleigh's ear.
Rayleigh was deeply confused. Why did this Shichibukai, Tyrant Kuma, want to help Luffy and the others??
But whether it was true or not, at least it relieved some of his pressure. Otherwise, facing Kizaru alone, he simply could not spare a hand.
After Bartholomew Kuma finished speaking, he vanished again and headed toward the Straw Hat Pirates.
Kizaru was thoroughly confused, unable to figure out what Bartholomew Kuma was trying to do??
Bartholomew Kuma appeared before Zoro.
"Zoro, run!" Luffy screamed desperately, while the other Straw Hat Pirates were just as tense.
"I will send you somewhere. Where would you like to go?" Bartholomew Kuma asked in a completely emotionless tone.
"Damn it, move! Move, damn you!" Zoro wanted to move, but his body was too severely depleted, and he could no longer budge.
Just as Bartholomew Kuma's palm was about to strike Zoro, a Flying Slash Attack shot over at tremendous speed and swept across Bartholomew Kuma's back.
Forcing Bartholomew Kuma to halt his movement.
This scene shocked everyone. They had no idea who had suddenly intervened.
A figure slowly descended from the sky.
Chopper pointed at Luo Chen and said in surprise, "It's that Luo Chen."
"Why did that guy come here?" Sanji asked, his face full of exhaustion and confusion.
Luffy, Zoro, Usopp, Franky, Brook, Nami, and Robin were all puzzled by Luo Chen's sudden appearance.
Sentomaru frowned. "That man is Luo Chen, one of the Supernovas. Since he stepped forward on his own, lock him up in Impel Down too."
"Why are you interfering with me?" Bartholomew Kuma turned and questioned Luo Chen.
Luo Chen smiled with a frivolous gaze. "I heard the Shichibukai are very strong. I happened to want to see whether they really are that strong."
"Luo Chen, surrender now!" Sentomaru charged over and roared.
Luo Chen drew the Great Grade Blades Kogarashi and Sakura Jū. His body lowered, then he shot forward in an instant. "Two-Sword Style Secret Technique: Twin Slash Waves."
"What!" Faced with Luo Chen's astonishing charging speed, Sentomaru could not react in time at all.
BOOM!!
Luo Chen passed straight through Sentomaru. Two massive gashes split open across his chest, blood spraying nonstop as Sentomaru lost consciousness.
The area swept by Luo Chen's attack was still faintly trembling.
Sentomaru, who had made Luffy suffer so badly, was taken down by Luo Chen in an instant!!
Zoro somehow found the strength to open his mouth. "That guy's swordsmanship!!"
The swordsmanship Luo Chen had displayed just now had struck Zoro too hard, so hard that he nearly began doubting his entire life.
"Is this Luo Chen really a Supernova on the same level as Luffy?" Sanji asked with a skeptical look.
Usopp said in stunned disbelief, "What kind of strength was that?"
"We should be safe for the moment." Franky spoke in a grave tone.
Kizaru and Rayleigh both revealed shocked expressions. Others might not understand, but the two of them certainly did.
The level of swordsmanship Luo Chen had displayed just now was clearly at the level of a Great Swordsman.
Swordsmanship at that level had obviously far surpassed the level of the Supernovas.
Even many great Pirates in the New World might not possess swordsmanship at the level of a Great Swordsman.
Kizaru said lecherously, yet with shock, "That rookie will become a major threat in the future."
"Hehe! What is it, Kizaru? Is your Marine already afraid?" Rayleigh said with a smile at the corner of his lips.
Bartholomew Kuma had originally planned to rescue Luffy and the others, but Luo Chen had interrupted him. Still, as long as Luffy and the others could be saved, that was enough.
Kizaru continued in his lecherous tone, "This mission hasn't been easy at all today. What a headache."
"Kizaru, with this old man here, don't even think about doing anything else." Rayleigh knew that his task was to hold Kizaru back.
For now, they could not be sure what Luo Chen's true purpose was.
After taking care of Sentomaru, Luo Chen looked toward Bartholomew Kuma and said, "I've cleared out the small fry. Now then, come on! Shichibukai Tyrant Kuma."
"Rookie, being this reckless is dangerous." Bartholomew Kuma thought about how he could safely send the Straw Hat Pirates away again.
