Chapter 173

Gin the two oddly shaped weapons, A Jin said coldly, "I hope these cadres aren't too weak, so I can warm up properly."

"Women are out of the question, too difficult to deal with." Kuro pushed up his glasses and said expressionlessly, "As for the men, there's no need to say more, beat them to death."

Lafitte slung his cane behind his back, and with a gentle demeanor, agreed, "That makes sense. One should indeed be Gentle with beautiful women."

"Of course, if a woman isn't good-looking, then treat her like a man and just beat her up."

Burgess swung his fist and laughed, "If you want to fight, just start! Stop dawdling like a woman."

After saying that, he strode forward, ready to fight the cadres.

Luo, carrying the Demonic Sword Kikoku, strode forward and said coldly, "Learn from the Captain's style: quick, accurate, and ruthless. End this pointless battle as soon as possible."

Hawkins put away the cards, still looking dead, and agreed, "Even Lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit, so let's finish them off quickly."

Then, the Division Commanders all went out and used their unique skills to beat the officers until they cried out in pain.

There was no way around it; the difference in strength between the two sides was simply too great. The battle was completely one-sided and would be over in no time.

Even though Daz Bones was Devil Fruit User, whose attacks were incredibly fierce, he was still instantly defeated by the Division Commanders.

At this moment, only three of the Baroque Works' cadres were still standing; the rest were all lying on the ground, either unconscious or groaning in pain...

Sally, Mikita, and Marianne were the three prettier ones, so the Division Commanders didn't target them.

They were all perfectly healthy, watching helplessly as their companions were beaten down, completely powerless to stop it.

As for those women who aren't considered attractive, such as Ms. Merry Christmas, Ms. Father's Day...

Since they weren't beautiful women, the Division Commanders certainly wouldn't show any mercy and would treat them like men.

Needless to say, he was beaten to a pulp and is now lying on the ground barely surviving, clearly severely injured.

After all, none of the Division Commanders were kind-hearted; they were all ruthless and merciless, killing without blinking an eye. So, it was inevitable that they would be more ruthless.

"This..."

Mikita's umbrella fell onto the desert floor. A look of horror crossed her pretty face; she looked as if she'd seen a ghost and exclaimed incredulously, "How could this be?"

Marianne was easily frightened and burst into tears, sobbing uncontrollably.

"Don't kill me... please, spare me..."

Sally stared at the group of people lying on the ground, her beautiful, fair face filled with terror. She exclaimed in disbelief, "How could this be? This can't be!"

"These are high-ranking executives from the Baroque Works! How could they be defeated so quickly?"

"No, this is fake, it must be a dream."

Sally shook her head, looking utterly stunned and completely unable to process what was happening.

Igaram rubbed his eyes, afraid he was seeing things, but no matter how he looked, there was a large group of people lying in front of him, all of them members of the Baroque Works.

"That's amazing, that's incredibly powerful."

"To take down a high-ranking official in the organization with such ease—that's truly astonishing!"

Burgess raised his arms and laughed loudly, saying arrogantly, "What high-ranking cadres? They're all fucking trash!"

"If you want to fight us, you'd better call your boss out first, hahaha..."

Gin sneered and said disdainfully, "I was hoping to warm up, but I didn't expect these cadres to be so weak. They're utterly trash."

Luo, carrying the Demonic Sword Kikoku, looked coldly at Mr. 5 and said with his usual aloofness.

"This guy's Devil Fruit is really quite impressive."

"Unfortunately, he had no idea how to utilize it, completely wasting this Paramecia Bomb-Bomb Fruit."

Hawkins glanced at Daz- Daz Bones and said in a low voice, "This guy is quite strong, it's a pity he followed the wrong person, otherwise he would have become even stronger."

Van Augur tapped his shoulder with his gun, expressionless. "Their fate was already sealed. After all, we're going to fight the Shichibukai."

Bartolomeo kicked Mr. 5 hard, and Mr. 5 screamed in pain, immediately knocking him unconscious.

"Damn it, acting all high and mighty, even picking your nose, I'll kick you to death!"

Cavendish shrugged, looking speechless, and retorted, "I didn't know you had this kind of twisted sense of humor. That's enough."

Kuro adjusted his glasses and said calmly and rationally, "These mere subordinates are not worth mentioning. Our target is Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

"They're just insignificant nobodys; there's no need to waste time on them. Let's keep going."

Lafitte twirled his cane, smiled slightly, and, as polite as ever, said something.

"I was hoping to warm up, but I'm a little disappointed."

"But it doesn't matter, at least we can draw one conclusion: the Baroque Works is truly a piece of trash."

Princess Vivi was truly shocked to see the cadres lying on the desert floor.

Her beautiful eyes widened, and a look of surprise appeared on her stunningly beautiful face. She murmured, "Too fast, really too fast."

"These were high-ranking officials, and in less than a minute, they were all knocked to the ground."

"The Division Commanders are incredibly strong."

Robin smoothed her long, glossy black hair, her beautiful eyes sparkling. She was also shocked and agreed, saying, "Their strength is simply not on the same level."

"The executives of the Baroque Works were like sheep encountering wolves; they had absolutely no ability to resist and were wiped out instantly."

"It's not that they're weak, it's just that the Division Commanders really too powerful."

Lasha clenched her fists, her pretty face beaming with excitement, and said happily, "Great, it's really wonderful!"

"Now that we've defeated the executives, and then we'll defeat Crocodile, and then it'll all be truly over, hee hee~~"

Nami patted her shoulder, laughing heartily, and said, "Although the Division Commanders are strong, they are still no match for Crocodile."

"To defeat the Shichibukai, we'll need Chris to step in. Just wait and see."

Carina tossed her blue hair and casually remarked, "I'm already used to this outcome."

"Back then, defeating the North Blue Overlord was a piece of cake. Defeating the overlord of the East Blue is the same; there's absolutely no difference."

"So dealing with these cadres is naturally a piece of cake; a few punches and kicks and it's over."

Honey Queen smoothed her light blonde hair, smiled gently, and said, "It was inevitable that these officials would be defeated."

"The problem now is, what should we do with these three beautiful women? Should we let (Nuoqianhao) join the team?"

Belo Betty took a drag of her cigarette, remaining as calm as ever, and immediately objected.

"That woman with the umbrella has absolutely no manners; she looks like a country bumpkin. She has no class whatsoever."

"I really dislike people like that. So this person absolutely cannot get on the ship."

Alvida, carrying the large iron bar, nodded slightly, smiling broadly, and agreed, saying, "That's right, this woman is definitely problematic; we can't let her on the ship."

"I think that since we're going to set up a branch in Alabasta, we should let the three of them stay here and do the work."

Carmen's beautiful eyes lit up, and she said with a smile, "That's a great idea! I support it, I strongly support Fox!"

Reiju looked at Baccarat, her eyebrows arched, and she smiled sweetly, saying, "I think it's quite good to let the three of them stay at the branch."

Baccarat was the leader of these women; they all listened to her and never contradicted her, making her very authoritative.

She smoothed her Deep Red hair, smiled gently, and said gracefully, "Since no one really likes them, let the three of them stay here at the branch."

"After all, the branch has just been established, and everything is difficult at the beginning. We will definitely need a lot of manpower."

Just then, an extremely cold voice came from the sky.

"You damned brats, you've really angered me!"

"Next, I'll slaughter you one by one. I'll show you just how cruel the consequences of provoking the Shichibukai can be."

"You little devils, tremble, hahaha..."

(Hey guys, this is a picture of Mikita. She's slim and sweet-looking, but she's just so rude. Working at the branch office will change her; she'll become a lady (￣￣).)

Chapter 173

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure floated down from the sky—it was Crocodile.

At this moment, half of his body turned into sand, tracing a curve in the air like a kite, looking very light and graceful.

The entrance was indeed very impressive!

Upon hearing Crocodile's voice, the cadres lying on the ground perked up, completely forgetting their pain, and smiles appeared on their faces.

"The president is here! We're saved now, hahaha..." Mr. 11 laughed loudly, then coughed up a mouthful of blood and lay back on the desert, his face ashen.

Looking at the figure in the sky, Gar-Dino exclaimed excitedly, "The boss is here! Let's see how arrogant they can be now. They'll all go to hell!"

Von Clay was badly beaten; his face was swollen like a pig's head, and he mumbled something indistinctly.

"Avenge us... I will kill them with my own hands..."

Daz- Daz Bones sat up, his dark face turning pale, and coughed, "I'm truly ashamed of the boss's kindness in training me, that I had to require your personal intervention."

"Disgrace, this is my disgrace!"

Mr. 4, still groggy, slowly said before passing out, "If the Division Commander is this powerful, then the Captain must be even more terrifying."

"I believe the leader can definitely handle them, because the boss is Wang Xiaqi..."

Before he could finish speaking, he closed his eyes, tilted his head, and fainted.

The three beautiful women who were still standing exchanged a glance, and smiles appeared on their pretty faces. They breathed a sigh of relief and were no longer nervous or afraid.

Mikita, holding up her little umbrella, let out an exaggerated laugh and said something while laughing loudly.

"These damned guys, let's see how cocky you are now, hahaha~~"

Marianne nodded, a sweet smile blooming on her face, and said with a grin, "With the boss involved, they definitely won't be able to escape."

"Great, I can go back and rest early and eat my favorite Senbei."

Sally, holding her large pipe, took a puff and said with a smile, "Although they are powerful, they are nothing to the boss."

"Let's wait and see. I'm sure the boss will take care of them quickly and avenge us."

All the women on the giant scorpion raised their heads and looked at the figure flying towards them in the sky.

Carina frowned, a look of disdain on her exquisitely fair face, and said something.

"Among the Shichibukai, the weakest of them all dare to put on airs? They're utterly stupid."

"Even Chris, who is so powerful, doesn't like to show off like this guy. He's incredibly arrogant."

Alvida, carrying the massive black iron rod, nodded slightly and said sarcastically, "Flying so slowly on purpose, just to attract our attention, how childish."

Honey Queen shrugged and immediately began to criticize, "Smoking Cigar, wearing a leather coat, and sporting a slicked-back hairstyle, he certainly looks very sophisticated."

"They look impressive on the outside, but their actual strength is utterly pathetic; they're a disgrace to the Shichibukai."

Belo Betty took a drag of her cigarette and said calmly as always, "Just like Chris said, this guy's left hand really does have a Golden Hook, and it contains deadly poison."

"A dignified Shichibukai actually poisoned his weapon; no one would believe it if word got out."

"I have to say, this guy is a truly insidious and despicable person, utterly repulsive."

Lasha glared fiercely at Crocodile, her pretty face showing anger, and said something very irritatingly.

"It's all because of this damned guy that my hometown has been reduced to ruins."

"If I get the chance later, I will definitely kill him with my own hands and avenge the villagers."

Princess Vivi nodded emphatically, her stunningly beautiful face filled with a serious expression, and said with utmost earnestness, "This bastard absolutely must be severely punished!"

"If we let him go so easily, how can we face the Citizens, how can we face this prosperous oasis?"

Robin tossed her long, glossy black hair, her eyebrows curved, exuding an air of intellectual elegance. "This is Crocodile's personality—arrogant and conceited as always."

"His position as Shichibukai made him arrogant and he liked to do things in a grand and ostentatious way, as if he was afraid others wouldn't know he was Shichibukai."

"Such an arrogant and ignorant person should go to Impel Down to deeply reflect on his actions and repent properly."

Reiju blinked her beautiful eyes, smiled gently, and said, "Next up is the battle between the Division Commander and the Shichibukai. I'm really looking forward to it!"

Baccarat smoothed her Deep Red hair, poised and elegant, "From the moment I set sail until now, I've been waiting for this day to arrive."

"At this moment, I am truly excited because Chris is about to become Shichibukai, a genuine big shot."
