The minions on the Brachiosaurus all fell into pools of blood, and Queen blocked Vic's dart with his Armament Haki.
Auston dodged by using his speed; he had by then transformed into a small dinosaur.
"Small" is only relative; it's smaller than Queen, but still about four or five meters tall.
Of course, this doesn't mean that Auston is currently faster than Vic's darts; the main point is that Vic throws them out in handfuls.
Headliners, they would be taking the hits head-on. The darts even pierced their flesh, causing some minor injuries, but they didn't lose their fighting ability.
It's impossible for a Bat King to just randomly appear here and stop King Luffy and Zoro; that would just be the animation team padding the plot.
There are only a few enemies left now, and it's not easy to divide the three of Vic, so Vic gave the two strongest ones to the two women while he went to take out the Headliners first.
It's not that Vic is afraid of Queen; he really isn't. He's just afraid of being disturbed during a fight. He's the strongest fighter and can take down Headliners in the shortest amount of time.
" Rebecca, you handle that little dragon. Gion, the big dragon is yours. The rest are on my shoulders. I'll cover for you!"
Vic spoke to the two women, who nodded and walked toward their respective enemies.
"You must be All-Stars Queen of the Beasts Pirates. I heard you guys took control of Wano Country two years ago."
Why are they appearing in the first half of the Grand Line today, and even attacking Navy warships?
Vic asked Queen, genuinely curious.
"What Wano Country? I don't know what you're talking about."
We're only here to pick up a little brother. There's no need for so many questions. I just enjoy attacking warships. I feel restless if I don't attack warships for a day. What can you do about it?
Queen was still wondering how this kid knew the Beasts Pirates had taken over Wano Country Wano Country, a place cut off from the outside world.
Queen wasn't a brainless person; he quickly changed the subject, as news of Wano Country's occupation couldn't be spread yet.
Kozuki Oden was Roger's partner and the former second division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates. If the two pirate crews were to join forces to fight Kaido and avenge the Kozuki Family, they would be in a real predicament, as the Beasts Pirates' power is not yet stable.
Even if things stabilize, it won't make a difference. Putting Roger Pirates aside, the arrival of Whitebeard's crew alone would cripple the Beasts Pirates.
Whitebeard was known as the World's Strongest Man, while Kaido only earned the title of the Strongest Creature. At this point in time, Kaido is definitely no match for Whitebeard.
"Really? You mean that little dragon you're talking about? Your Beasts Pirates really are a zoo, huh? Hahaha!" Vic laughed heartily.
Queen was furious. The enemy had been picking and choosing in front of him just now, like picking vegetables and choosing meat, and now they were saying that they were not human. This was really too much.
Queen had no more words to say and drew his twin swords from his waist, slashing at Gion.
Gion quickly countered, and the two clashed. Gion's swordsmanship was exquisite, refined, and sharp.
Although Queen carried two swords at his waist, he was not skilled in swordsmanship; he only knew how to slash and swing, which was characterized by its wide, powerful, and heavy movements.
Neither of them imbued their swords with Haki during the battle, resulting in a temporary stalemate.
Rebecca is in a bit of danger; this little dragon is too agile and much faster than Rebecca.
Rebecca had already been knocked down several times, and her longsword couldn't even touch the enemy's body.
"Hahaha, I'm Zoan Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Ancient Zoan, Velociraptor Mode!"
Among all the dinosaurs, I'm one of the fastest. You can't hit me! Just admit defeat and let that man take you away, hahaha!
This way of speaking is definitely One Piece style; it confirms he's a native of the One Piece world.
As Auston spoke, he gestured with his chin toward Vic, who was watching the match!
He sensed an unusually dangerous aura emanating from Vic, so he never went too far with Rebecca, and never used his sharpest teeth to bite her.
He only headbutted her a few times, afraid that if he hurt Rebecca too badly, Vic would rush over and kill her.
Vic rushed towards the injured Headliners to cut off the vines first.
Vic's swordsmanship was already exquisite, and with the added advantage of the Speed-Speed Fruit, he dealt with several Headliners as easily as cutting melons and vegetables, without needing to use a second strike on any of them.
Vic is no longer fighting with a playful attitude; every move he makes is a killing blow!
When the first Headliners fell, the Headliners didn't react much, but as more and more people fell, the remaining Headliners were truly terrified.
Weeping bitterly, those who tried to escape, those who begged for mercy, those who wanted to jump into the sea—none of them could escape Vic's unpredictable speed; they all perished under his blade.
Queen's eyes widened in disbelief, practically bulging out of their sockets. Those were his cherished underlings, dead in Paradise! So weak, it's good they're dead.
Rebecca was extremely unwilling to accept Auston's words, and her attacks became increasingly fierce and domineering, with less hesitation and timidity.
Auston also felt the pressure; Rebecca had been growing stronger through sparring with Vic.
Vic's speed far surpasses that of the little dinosaur; Rebecca, in her all-out attack, can already predict Auston's movement path in advance.
Auston started to get wounds, but they were all small. With the powerful regenerative abilities of his Zoan, the bleeding stopped immediately, and the wounds healed quickly under the pressure of his muscles.
Vic kept a close eye on the battle between the two sides using his Observation Haki, in case of any sudden changes.
Queen, in particular, has too many underhanded tricks up his sleeve. He's modified his body to be covered in weapons, making him sometimes impossible to defend against.
Rebecca is doing alright; this little dragon doesn't know Haki yet, he's just being arrogant because of his Devil Fruit ability.
Rebecca's long training in Observation Haki has yielded results; she can now temporarily dodge most attacks, so Vic isn't too worried about her.
Queen had given up using a sword; his sword was merely an auxiliary weapon, lacking the sophistication of Gion's swordsmanship. He had taken several blows, but his Haki blocked them, preventing him from being injured.
Now Gion has also wrapped the blade with Armament Haki, and Queen's head and tail are now segmented, attacking Gion from all sides.
Sometimes Gion couldn't dodge in time and had to take Queen's attacks head-on, but Queen's strength was too great, Gion would be knocked away every time.
Gion was already injured, and there was a line of blood at the corner of her mouth.
"My strength is inferior to Zoan's Queen, so I need to rely on speed to evade attacks. In the long run, I will undoubtedly lose."
Thankfully, there was Vic as a variable; otherwise, this Recruit Camp would have been a truly disastrous experience.
I'm still too weak! I need to become stronger, and I'll use you Queen, as a whetstone to hone myself into a sharper form!
Gion analyzed the situation in her mind, but she was not careless at all. She dodged the dinosaur claws that were coming straight at her, quickly closed in, and slashed at Queen's head with the Haki Kompira.
Queen saw Gion approaching and knew that the other party was about to retaliate, so he quickly covered his head with Haki in advance.
The sound of metal clashing rang out, Gion was forced back.
Gion charged forward again, but this time Queen used his mechanical arm to counterattack, Gion's attack failed once more.
At that moment, Gion sensed danger with her Observation Haki, but it was too late to hide.
Queen's massive tail arrived in the blink of an eye, sweeping her away. Gion's body crashed through the cabin and disappeared from their sight.
Gion was seriously injured this time, and it took her a long time to stand up. Vic felt a toothache just looking at her.
" Gion, why don't I do it? You go and rest over there!" Vic advised Gion.
"I can still fight!"
Gion finished speaking, she used Shave to get to Queen's side. This time, Queen didn't react in time, and his thigh was cut open, bleeding profusely.
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!"
Queen stuck out his tongue in pain, and it bounced up and down like a wave.
On the other side, Rebecca narrowly dodged a charge from the velociraptor, managing to stab the dinosaur in the side.
A long, narrow bloodstain appeared on the side of the dinosaur in Auston. The sword was blocked by the dinosaur's ribs and could not penetrate deep enough to draw out two pounds of blood.
Auston was unleashed with the ferocity and bloodlust of an ancient velociraptor, his attacks becoming even more ferocious, using both claws and tail, no longer caring about Vic.
At that moment, all he wanted was to tear Rebecca apart, and Rebecca's situation became extremely precarious.
Vic then turned his attention to Gion, Gion used her slender figure to dodge Queen's attacks by moving left and right.
Occasionally, Gion would also be caught in the crossfire by Queen's mechanical arms. She managed to hold her own, and although her swordsmanship had improved, defeating Queen would be difficult. Vic shook his head slightly.
In terms of Haki, Gion is slightly weaker, and Queen doesn't know how to use Haki at an advanced level either, so the two are at roughly the same level of energy expenditure.
However, Queen's strength was too great, and his defense was extremely strong, which was what Gion found difficult to withstand.
At present, neither side can do anything to the other. Even if an attack hits the opponent, it will be blocked by the opponent's Haki, at most resulting in some minor injuries.
