Unlike the battle on Naruto's side, which had already reached a fever pitch, the fight Sasuke and the others faced against the prisoners wasn't as intense as one might imagine.
"Take this!"
Sasuke wasn't sure why a prisoner like this could hide firearms and even a cannon inside his cell.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The projectiles from the three-barreled flintlock shot out, but were burned to ashes by the Calamity Flas before they could even touch Sasuke's body.
"Hey!"
Before Sasuke could react, Konohamaru's figure leaped out from beside him. The next mont, he delivered a kick squarely to the face of Avalo Pizarro.
As a prisoner worthy of being held in Level 6, he naturally had so skills.
The kick, coated in Haki, only managed to force Pizarro back a few steps. But the guy actually managed to aim his gun at Konohamaru even while being attacked.
Bang-
Another shot. The projectile passed through Konohamaru's body without any resistance.
But all it produced was a large puff of smoke.
"Hehe! Over here!"
After the clone dispersed, another Konohamaru seized the opportunity to charge out from the side, hitting Pizarro's flank squarely with a Rasengan.
"Urgh!"
This ti, Pizarro only had ti to cry out in shock before he was sent spinning away.
He didn't have the formidable physique and Haki of Jack the Drought. Combined with Konohamaru's intense training during this period, this enhanced Rasengan had more than enough power to break through the prisoners' defenses.
Similar scenes could be seen everywhere here.
Those prisoners who had lost most of their reasoning ability to madness were generally no match for Konohamaru.
Even if they luckily hit a vital spot, the target would likely instantly turn into smoke and vanish, only for another identical figure to rush out from sowhere else to fill the gap.
As for the 'ruthless characters' hiding within the crowd, they were naturally handled by Sasuke and Karin, the two Mythical Zoan Users.
'Damn, when did so many young powerhouses appear on the seas?'
Having been bested once by Straw Hat Luffy, Crocodile learned his lesson the hard way. He not only warned himself not to underestimate enemies but also continued to train his own abilities.
But the golden, shimring figure in front of him didn't seem like soone he could handle just by 'not underestimating' them.
"Sandstorm!"
A small sandstorm materialized in Crocodile's hand, which he then hurled towards Karin.
Mid-air, the sandstorm rapidly expanded, soon growing large enough to suck in Karin along with a dozen or so prisoners around her.
Clang!
Golden wings easily deflected a prisoner's slash. Karin, spinning in mid-air, sent that prisoner flying, then looked back and saw the sneak attack from Crocodile.
"Hmph, playing with storms against ?"
With just a few light flaps of her wings, an even stronger whirlwind ford in front of Karin and shot towards Crocodile's direction at high speed.
Crocodile's ability was to control sand, and the storm was just an airflow generated by the sand's movent, different from Karin who essentially manipulated wind directly.
The sandstorm and the whirlwind tangled for a few seconds before the forr, along with itself, was absorbed into the whirlwind, which then continued forward unabated.
"Tch..."
Crocodile narrowed his eyes and decisively dissolved into sand, letting the whirlwind hit the other prisoners behind him.
When he reford his shape monts later, Karin's attacks relentlessly followed him.
Clearly, he had been exposed.
Like several other powerful prisoners, Crocodile had now been marked by Karin.
Seeing this, Crocodile knew it was no ti to hold back. A fierce expression reappeared on his face.
"Don't push your luck, woman!"
Half of his arm turned into yellow sand, which he then hurled towards Karin at high speed.
The path of the sand grains was extrely stealthy, only transforming into a giant blade when they reached right in front of Karin.
"Desert Grande Spada!"
The fine sand was also coated with black Haki, adding to its lethality.
However, this venomous, snake-like move failed to escape Karin's notice.
"Vajra Wheel!"
Golden wings shielded both sides of her body as Karin began spinning rapidly. The Haki-coated sand blade slash was completely deflected by the diamond-hard feathers.
"You few, stop watching! If we don't kill them, don't even think about escaping."
Seeing this, Crocodile didn't hesitate to shout at the others in the crowd who had been conserving their strength.
In truth, they didn't believe the World Governnt's promises either.
But this was undoubtedly a good opportunity.
A chance for them to escape amidst the chaos.
Several pirates... perhaps also Marines, and the forr Chief Guard, Shiryu of the Rain, began to move.
These individuals were clearly much stronger than the frenzied prisoners around them.
Haki-coated attacks almost simultaneously struck Karin. Although most were blocked by her defense, a few attacks still bypassed the diamond wings and hit her body.
Sshhh-
Shiryu flicked his sword, shaking off the blood on it, then sneered coldly.
"After all, just a little girl."
His swordsmanship specialty allowed him to launch slashes from the most tricky angles. As long as Karin's defense wasn't a complete sphere, he could always find a gap.
Seeing the wound on Karin's abdon continuously bleeding, Konohamaru's face imdiately showed anxiety. But Sasuke, familiar with Karin's abilities, remained completely calm.
'Making a fuss over nothing. This is nothing.'
Unlike the One Piece World, where people were generally tough but had poor self-regeneration, the Ninja World where Karin grew up had no shortage of healing thods.
Moreover, aside from those techniques, Karin's own regenerative ability was already terrifying enough.
Under the gaze of the many prisoners, Karin seed to notice the wound on her waist belatedly.
So, she decisively bit her arm lightly, then casually tore off the piece of clothing stained with blood, revealing a smooth abdon without any scar.
"How... is that possible? A Devil Fruit's Ability?"
Shiryu looked at Karin in disbelief, then pulled out his sword again, looking at the smooth blade, montarily doubting his own eyes.
"Hey, you, are you even capable?"
Crocodile, who had initially been ready to press the attack seeing the troubleso woman injured, now saw that she seed completely fine.
Faced with Crocodile's doubt, Shiryu couldn't find words. He could only draw his sword again.
"This ti, I'll cut you into a dozen pieces. Let's see you heal from that!"
As he spoke, he prepared to attack again.
And Karin seed done 'playing' around.
[Body Revival - Physical tamorphosis - Eight Gates Released: Gate of Shock, Open!]
Three Forbidden Jutsu activated simultaneously. Instantly, blue waves of Chakra erupted from around Karin's body.
The next mont, before Shiryu could see anything, all he heard was a clanging sound.
His sword was broken-
Along with what felt like his bones.
Sasuke, watching Karin start to wreak havoc, first shook his head, then leisurely dodged two attacks, casually knocking out two sneaking prisoners with two punches.
'It seed the truly strong ones were all on Naruto's side.'
Just as he was thinking this, the passive ability of the Huodou suddenly activated.
Calamity Sight.
"Karin! Konohamaru! Don't hold back! End this quickly!"
Hearing Sasuke's urgent shout, Karin paused, threw the unconscious Vasco Shot aside, ignored Crocodile's stare, and turned to look at Sasuke in confusion.
"Trouble is coming-"
