Beckman said in a deep voice:
"This is not a temporary breakthrough."
"She's just adapting to her own power."
Raki Lu picked up the meat that had fallen to the ground, but did not continue eating it.
"Even though Hawk Eyes is serious, he still can't control her?"
No one answered.
The outcome on the battlefield has already provided the answer.
Hawk Eyes recovered the situation he lost at the start of the game.
However, they failed to further expand their advantage.
Tashigi's power is still increasing.
The sword intent became increasingly refined.
The two fought their way from the center of the island to the coast, and then fought their way back to their starting point.
The ground is covered with cracks.
The surrounding rocks were all shredded by the sword energy.
No one fell.
Neither can truly overpower the other.
Tashigi even began to regain the initiative.
With each swing of her sword, she pushed herself closer to her limits than ever before.
Uchiha Xin watched for a while, then stopped paying attention.
Tashigi has a chance to defeat Hawk Eyes.
He doesn't need to get involved in this battle.
He turned his head.
His gaze passed over the rocks shattered by the sword energy and landed on the distant coast of the island.
The Red Voss is docked there.
The entire Red Hair Pirates were at the side of the ship.
Uchiha Xin's gaze finally settled on Red-Haired Shanks.
The next second, space cracked open beside Uchiha Xin.
Before Robin and Perona could react, they were enveloped by spatial forces.
The three figures disappeared from the center of the island.
When it reappeared, it was already standing on the deck of the Red Voss.
Less than ten meters from Shanks.
The expressions of the Red Hair Pirates all changed simultaneously.
No one saw Uchiha Xin move.
Even his Observation Haki couldn't detect his movements.
Just a moment ago, he was standing on the other side of the island.
The next moment, they had already covered thousands of meters and boarded their ship.
Beckman paused the cigarette in his hand, which was near his mouth.
He had been keeping an eye on Uchiha Xin.
But the moment the other person disappeared, his Observation Haki lost its target.
There was no trace left by high-speed movement.
There was no sound of footsteps on the ground.
There is no trace of elementalization.
Just like the space where Uchiha Xin was, he was directly replaced here.
Yasopp grasped the spear.
Before the gun was even raised, cold sweat had already beaded on his forehead.
As the Red Hair Pirates ' top sniper, he is extremely sensitive to distance.
A distance of several kilometers is not far for him.
To leap over it in an instant while everyone is watching is simply beyond the capabilities of speed.
The meat in Raki Lu's hand fell onto the deck.
"You came straight here?"
What ability did he just use?
" The Rumble-Rumble Fruit can't do that, can it?"
No one answered.
Uchiha Xin stood in the center of the deck.
Robin landed to his left.
Perona, holding Kumashi, immediately floated behind him.
She looked around.
The pirates on the Red Voss had all surrounded them.
Swords are drawn.
The gun barrel was raised.
All eyes were on them.
"Owner."
Perona lowered her voice.
There are quite a few of them.
Uchiha Xin didn't pay any attention.
The number of people is meaningless to him.
Shanks looked at the three people who had suddenly appeared, and the casualness on his face completely disappeared.
It has long been believed that Uchiha Xin possesses some kind of superior lightning ability.
The navy called him the Thunder Emperor.
The newspaper's published battle record also highlighted his Thunderbolt, swordsmanship, and those special eyes.
Although there were records of spatial abilities during the Enies Lobby, the World Government has not released the detailed process.
Shanks only knew that Uchiha Xin could traverse space.
Little did they know that this ability could be this fast.
They were even more unaware that it would activate without warning.
If Uchiha Xin hadn't chosen to appear in the center of the deck, but instead went directly behind someone...
Shanks gripped the hilt of his sword tightly.
He dared not continue to underestimate this ability.
Beckman had already placed his hand on the butt of the rifle.
His movements were slow.
But he can draw his gun at any time.
Yasopp moved half a step to the side, creating an angle between himself and Uchiha Xin.
Raki Lu put down his food and reached for his weapon at his waist with his right hand.
The remaining crew members were scattered throughout the deck.
No one spoke up or made a fuss.
They all knew who the person in front of them was.
Defeat Hawk Eyes.
Two Shichibukai were killed.
Killed a candidate Admiral.
Destroy Enies Lobby.
Kill Golden Lion Shiki.
The 3 billion Beli bounty is not a figure randomly set by the Navy.
The very fact that Uchiha Xin was standing here signified danger.
Robin glanced across the deck.
She lacks the ability to initiate action.
A petal fell from beside her feet and disappeared along the crack in the wooden plank.
The power of the Float-Float Fruit has already enveloped his body.
She could take Perona away from the deck at any time if the Red Hair Pirates made a move.
Uchiha Xin looked at Shanks.
You were looking for me?
His voice carried on.
The air on deck tightened again.
Shanks took two steps forward.
"Good."
I came here specifically to see you.
Uchiha Xin stood on a higher position on the deck, looking down at him.
"Purpose."
Shanks did not answer immediately.
He originally planned to watch Hawk Eyes's duel with Uchiha Xin before deciding how to approach this Thunder Emperor.
But things did not go as he had expected.
Hawk Eyes couldn't even fight Uchiha Xin himself.
A mere female swordsman who followed Uchiha Xin managed to drag Hawk Eyes into a fierce battle.
Now, Uchiha Xin has directly crossed space and appeared on the Red Fox.
The changes that have occurred have exceeded his expectations.
Shanks looked up and met Uchiha Xin's gaze.
You haven't been here long.
"They've accomplished quite a lot."
"First, defeat Hawk Eyes and take Black Blade Yoru."
"Then he severely injured and killed Shichibukai."
"Several Vice Admiral from the Marine Headquarters were defeated by you."
"You even killed Chaton, the candidate for Admiral."
Shanks paused for a moment.
No one on deck interrupted.
He continued:
" Enies Lobby has been destroyed."
"Even Golden Lion Shiki died at your hands."
"In a short period of time, you've offended almost everyone—the Navy, the World Government, and the Shichibukai."
"Now even the New World is starting to pay attention to you."
" Uchiha Xin, I want to know, what exactly are you planning to do?"
Uchiha Xin remained expressionless.
Do I need to explain to you what I'm doing?
Shanks shook his head.
I'm not here to pry into your secrets.
"It's not like they're arresting people on behalf of the Navy."
"I just want to confirm one thing."
Are you prepared for a full-scale war with the World Government?
Perona glanced at Shanks.
This sounds like a question.
However, his tone clearly carried a sense of obstruction.
Beckman did not draw his gun.
His fingers had already landed on the gun handle.
If Uchiha Xin gives a positive answer, Shanks will likely make a decision immediately.
Robin noticed this too.
She turned to look at Uchiha Xin, without interrupting.
Uchiha Xin chuckled softly.
"What if we go to war?"
What if we don't go to war?
Shanks said in a deep voice:
"This sea is chaotic enough already."
"The Navy has more big moves in store."
" The Whitebeard Pirates were also dragged into this."
