Boom!
The earth trembled violently, and a massive shockwave swept outwards from the ruins.
Amidst the desolate ruins, a figure, dressed in slightly disheveled clothes, burst forth from the ground, his face contorted with overwhelming killing intent.
The fact that he had secretly plotted to assassinate War Demon Bai Yu, had already made Nusjuro lose face.
He was even knocked away by Shichibukai in one move.
For him, this was a humiliation far more unbearable than death.
" Bai Yu, let me help you."
Dracule Mihawk spoke coldly.
A pair of hawk-like eyes were fixed on the Nusjuro, revealing a sense of eager anticipation.
On this vast ocean, he had even challenged the Four Emperors, but this was the first time he had faced one of the Five Elders, like Nusjuro.
In particular, the Nusjuro was holding a fine knife, undoubtedly making Great Swordmaster.
This further fueled Hawk-Eye's curiosity.
"Hmph, of course I'll do this kind of thing."
Hancock snorted and walked out from the crowd.
"No, it is I who should repay this debt of gratitude."
"It's me... it's my turn..."
The scene suddenly became a bit noisy.
No one expected that the Shichibukai present would all be eyeing the Five Elders Nusjuro.
However, faced with this situation, many people turned their attention to Bai Yu, revealing a hint of urgency.
They were eager to know what choice Bai Yu would make in this situation.
"Sorry, this is the person I'm going to kill. I appreciate your kindness, though."
Bai Yu smiled bloodthirstyly and walked straight out of the crowd.
" Nusjuro, didn't you want to kill me? If so, then come and chase me. I hope you truly deserve the risk I'd take to come here and chop you down."
As soon as he finished speaking, lightning crackled and burst forth from Bai Yu's body. The next moment, in full view of everyone, it transformed into a bolt of lightning and shot straight away.
Everyone was stunned by what they saw.
Even the Nusjuro was no exception.
Is this a desperate fight to the death, or a retreat?
The jumbled thoughts had barely flashed through his mind when the Nusjuro the Roar angrily.
"You insolent brat, how dare you try to deceive me with your tricks, even using Kaido's methods?"
"I'll see where you can run to."
"CP0, I don't care what methods you use, stop these traitors, the Shichibukai, and bring back the head of that arrogant fool."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Nusjuro unleashed a powerful aura and quickly broke through the air to chase after Bai Yu.
Upon seeing this, the CP0 members present didn't have time to think and immediately used their hands to stop the Shichibukai.
"Haha, I didn't expect Admiral Bai Yu to be as confident as ever, completely unpredictable. I was originally planning to use this opportunity to repay a debt of gratitude, but it seems that's out of the question now."
Jinbe was the first to burst into hearty laughter.
He glanced back at King Neptune and said, "Your Majesty, it seems the World Affiliated Nation Conference has no intention of continuing. Let us take our leave."
Walk?
King Neptune and the others paused for a moment.
" Jinbe, shouldn't we wait for the final result? What if Admiral Bai Yu needs support...?"
"Need support?"
Jinbe shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, you're overthinking it. Admiral Bai Yu has always been seen as a thorn in the side by many, but he has always managed to escape unscathed."
"This time, since he refused us and even declared that everything he came for was to take down the Five Elders, it's enough to show that Admiral Bai Yu has enough confidence."
"I believe him. He would never have gotten involved in this mess if he didn't have the confidence to walk away unscathed."
After he finished speaking, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
Dracule Mihawk sheathed his Black Blade Yoru, and turned to leave first.
The CPO who had been blocking his way suddenly changed his expression and subconsciously took a step back.
CP0 is indeed the highest-ranking intelligence organization under the World Government.
However, not everyone possesses formidable combat power.
At least, there is still a significant gap compared to the Shichibukai.
If they were to face a Shichibukai, they could at least put up a fight.
But now, there are Shichibukai on this ruin, which also puts a lot of pressure on the dozens of CPOs present.
"What's wrong? Are you trying to stop us from leaving?"
Dracule Mihawk spoke calmly.
"Since that guy has already refused our help, we won't bother doing something so shameful."
"Of course, if you believe you have the ability to capture all of us Shichibukai, then feel free to fight."
As soon as he finished speaking, the invisible aura dormant within Hawk-Eye's body subtly spread out.
The faces of the several CP0 members standing nearby changed instantly, and their muscles tensed to the extreme.
Let them go!
Rob Lucci's voice suddenly rang out.
"Our mission is simply to stop them from going to support War Demon Bai Yu. Since they've abandoned their support, keeping them here won't do them much good, and might even make the situation worse."
"As for how to deal with the traitors among the Shichibukai afterward, let the Five Elders handle that."
The expressions on the faces of the CP0 members present changed slightly.
However, compared to them, Rob Lucci, who was originally the ace of CP9, has a status and position that are clearly incomparable to ordinary CP0 members after being promoted to CP0.
Faced with Rob Lucci's decision, many people exchanged glances and then stepped aside to make way for him.
Seeing this, Dracule Mihawk was the first to walk away slowly.
The remaining five members of the Shichibukai also turned and left.
Only the kings of the Affiliated Nation remained, looking utterly helpless.
Meanwhile, in the Holy Land Mary Geoise.
Two figures stood inside the palace, watching the live broadcast of the Den Den Mushi (a type of Den Den Mushi). The one in the lead Daps, said...
" Killer, Rob Lucci is indeed a promising talent. If we nurture him in the future, perhaps we can use his life force to enhance the strength of those guys."
Rob Lucci and his companions, who failed in their mission to protect the Celestial Dragons in the Sabaody Archipelago, should have been punished.
However, he was later selected by Daps and directly promoted to the CP0 ranks.
All of this was solely for the purpose of implementing a plan.
"This guy is indeed quite good, but Nusjuro chased after that little fellow. Are we really not worried?"
Killer, tall and slender with a long beard and dressed in a suit, asked in a deep voice.
"Don't forget, this time, in order to nip this variable in the bud, we also broke ties with the Marine Headquarters."
