With a thunderous crash, a shattered crater appeared in the hard ground.
Hancock's slender body was seized by the ankle by Bullet and slammed heavily into the earth.
In an instant, her clean and elegant attire was stained with dirt and stone dust, becoming blackened and disheveled.
Several tears had even appeared in her pink-and-white high-slit cheongsam.
The fair, alluring skin beneath was exposed to the air.
Hancock lay on her back in the shattered crater.
Her eyes were wide open.
She seemed not to have recovered from the shock.
Ever since becoming the ruler of Amazon Lily, captain of the Kuja Pirates, and one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea,
Hancock had never suffered treatment like this.
The Pirate Empress had actually been ignored despite her breathtaking beauty and treated so roughly.
Crack, crack.
Hancock gritted her silver teeth, her eyes erupting with intense killing intent and boundless fury.
"I'll kill you! Devil's Heir!"
Buzz!
A mass of pink energy ripples suddenly erupted from Hancock's body, whipping up a storm across the plaza for over a hundred meters.
"Hm? Conqueror's Haki?"
Bullet paused.
Although there were quite a few powerful women in this world,
Bullet had truly seen very few women possessing Conqueror's Haki.
Among the current Four Emperors, Big Mom was one.
He had not expected this vase-like woman before him to possess the qualities of a king as well.
Overcome by rage, Hancock let out a sharp cry. Her graceful, delicate body suddenly arched, launching herself from the crater in the ground.
Her fair right leg extended from beneath her cheongsam, swiftly turning pitch-black as it became coated in Armament Haki, kicking toward Bullet's neck.
"That's enough. Why are all powerful women so violent?"
Bullet lightly raised his left hand.
Bang!
Hancock's right leg swept across and struck Bullet's left arm with a dull thud.
The powerful recoil sent her flying far away.
Yet Hancock, consumed by fury, refused to let up.
The instant she landed, she tapped the ground with her toes, and her body vanished with a whoosh.
Whoosh!
She raced across the ground at high speed, then leaped high into the air. Her right foot, wrapped in Armament Haki, kicked toward Bullet's chest once more.
Great Perfume Femur!
Boom!
This kick was clearly far more powerful than the previous one.
Before she even reached Bullet, Hancock's extreme speed had already produced a dull sonic boom in midair.
Bullet's gaze gradually turned cold. He raised his thick right arm as a blue-green half-demon form emerged, and one of his right eyes turned blood-red.
Terrifying baleful energy surged forth like a tsunami, filling everyone with fear and unease.
"Since you're looking to die, I'll grant your wish."
Watching Hancock kick at him from the air, Bullet stomped his left foot down!
Boom!!
The earth caved in, and the ground within dozens of meters cracked apart.
The tendons across his brawny body tightened and contracted, pumping forth incomparable strength as he threw a punch at that slender leg.
Bang!
Fist and foot collided in an instant, erupting with a massive blast.
Hancock's proud expression suddenly changed drastically.
She only felt an irresistible force surge from her kicking right foot, directly breaking through the Armament Haki shielding her body and smashing through her entire body like dry wood.
Crackling explosions rang out.
The red high-heeled shoe on her delicate kicking foot gradually turned to dust.
Then that boundless force traveled upward, spreading throughout her entire body.
Hancock's cheongsam shattered completely in an instant.
Not only that, but great clouds of blood mist burst from the pores of her exposed skin.
A crisp crack sounded.
Hancock groaned as the bones in her right foot and lower leg fractured.
Before such an alluring body,
Bullet's gaze was as indifferent as if he were looking at pork laid out on a chopping board.
Before Hancock, whose right leg was broken, could fall from the air, his left hand, as large as a fan, spread its five fingers and swung toward her.
Under Hancock's furious, wide-eyed glare, Bullet slapped Hancock's fair cheek.
Smack!
A palm larger than half of Hancock's body struck her like swatting a fly, sending her spinning through the air like a top.
She shot away with a howl, flying hundreds of meters before crashing into a cluster of buildings.
On the surrounding battlefield, the Marine officers who witnessed the scene were all dumbfounded.
"Pirate Empress Boa Hancock was defeated in seconds!"
They looked at Bullet as though they were looking at a demon.
"The Devil's Heir is far stronger than we imagined!"
"Without combat power at the level of a Marine Admiral, no one can stop this guy!"
"Everyone, attention! Concentrated fire!"
Bang bang bang!
Bang bang bang!
A dense barrage of bullets came whistling in, striking Bullet's towering body with a series of crackling impacts.
Yet he neither dodged nor evaded, allowing the bullets to wash over his inhuman physique.
He did not even use Armament Haki.
The flintlock guns in the Marine officers' hands could not even break through his flesh.
Even small-caliber cannonballs felt little different from scratching an itch.
But suddenly, Bullet frowned slightly.
He looked at the shadow beneath his feet.
A strange sight unfolded.
His shadow actually seemed to have been given life, twisting and writhing.
Pulled by an invisible force, it rapidly stretched out toward the distance, where many Marine soldiers surrounded someone.
The shadow beneath Bullet's feet, once a single dark mass, had become thin and narrow, like a long thread.
"Cacklehehehe, you were too careless, Douglas Barrett."
In the distance, Moria was protected by hundreds upon hundreds of Marine soldiers, packed so tightly that not even water could pass through.
A triumphant, strange grin appeared on his face.
In his hand, he was gripping a huge shadow shaped exactly like Bullet.
The shadow's lower body was long and black, connected directly to the ground beneath Bullet's feet.
Moria held Bullet's shadow in one hand and a massive pair of scissors in the other, cackling as he snipped at the thin line connecting the shadow to Bullet.
"As long as I cut off your shadow, no matter how strong you are, the sunlight above will turn you directly to ashes! Cacklehehehe!"
"Gecko Moria? Another one of the Seven Warlords."
Bullet's expression remained indifferent, without the slightest ripple.
"Trash like you, don't you have any self-awareness?"
Against someone like Moria, who had even forgotten Haki and eaten himself into a bloated fatass,
Bullet could not summon even the slightest desire to fight.
Seeing the contempt on Bullet's face,
Moria seemed provoked. Gritting his teeth, he brought the huge scissors in his hand down directly on Bullet's shadow.
