Chapter 504: How Dare You Shot at ?! (Combined Chapters 2 in 1)
I havent encountered the person youre looking for. You should ask soone else, Hawkins put away his tarot cards and said to Kizaru.
Kizaru scratched his head and said, Oh If I cant find Sentomaru, then Ill have nothing to do. Well, since Im idle anyway, I cant just let a criminal like you go free, can I? Basil Hawkins
For the Marines, who were well aware of the over hundred million rookie pirates appearing on Sabaody Archipelago at the mont, Kizaru had recognized him the mont he saw Hawkins.
Speed is weight. Have you ever been kicked at lightspeed?
As soon as Kizaru said these words, he launched a direct attack. A sidekick was aid at Hawkins head.
Hawkins had just finished speaking when he suddenly took action. The kick ca so fast that Hawkins didnt even have ti to react. A trendous force sent him flying!
With a loud crash, Hawkins crashed into a nearby building.
However, Kizaru didnt stop there. The tip of his right index finger suddenly emitted a bright light, followed by a laser that hit Hawkins at the spot where he was launched. A strong burst of light erupted, and the building seed to explode as if it had been hit by a bomb, with debris flying everywhere!
Captain! The mbers of Hawkins pirate crew watched in horror and couldnt help but cry out.
However, a clattering sound followed. Hawkins walked out of the rubble completely unhard and said, Dont worry, Im fine!
Kizaru looked at Hawkins, who appeared completely unscathed, with a puzzled expression on his face.
As expected, hes no ordinary adversary Hawkins extended his right hand, and two charred straw n crawled out from under his sleeves, falling to the ground. He continued, But fortunately, I encountered soone just as formidable last ti. So since that day, Ive been more prepared It should be fine, I hope?
Just then, a groaning sound echoed, and a massive figure fell ahead of Hawkins, landing in a disheveled heap before Hawkins and Kizaru.
This individual was none other than the eccentric monk, Urouge, whose face and body were covered in wounds, and he was still bleeding, presenting a pitiful sight.
The instigator of all this chaos was an even larger figure!
This person had a rotund body and slender limbs, with a bear-like hat perched on their head.
Isnt that Bartholow Kuma, the forr Warlord of the Sea!? The mbers of Hawkins pirate crew were left in stunned silence upon seeing this colossal figure.
And as Urouge lay on the ground, he also caught sight of Kizaru and couldnt help but exclaim, Whats going on why is Admiral Kizaru here!?
Oh? You know ! Kizaru replied with an ambiguous tone.
This is this is bad! Urouge struggled to rise from the ground. Facing a forr Warlord and an Admiral today truly isnt my lucky day. Am I dood to perish today?
Upon hearing this, Hawkins glanced at Urouge and suddenly spoke, Not necessarily. I dont see the shadow of death upon you Odd, but you appear to have the aura of soone coming to your aid?
Urouge sighed bitterly, Basil Hawkins of the North Blue? Even in dire straits, you still find the ti for humor?
As the two conversed, Bartholow Kuma, the towering bear-like figure, was steadily advancing toward Urouge and Hawkins. However, just as he neared them, a sudden figure lunged forward, delivering a powerful blow to Kumas head, sending his massive body hurtling through the air. With a resounding crash, he crashed into a nearby building.
Another individual entered the fray, this ti, it was X Drake, the Red Flag.
Well, well, Rear Admiral Drake? Kizaru imdiately recognized him upon seeing Drake.
Kizaru!? Drake, who had been preoccupied with the colossal Kuma, only noticed Kizarus presence after the intervention, feeling a sense of unease.
Hawkins glanced at Drake and found it increasingly strange because he saw a similar countenance in Drakes face as well!
Could it be that the three of them, together, might find soone to help them and make a successful escape?
While Hawkins pondered this, the eccentric monk Urouge also began to act. His body suddenly expanded like a balloon, growing as tall as Kuma.
Shedding his monks robe, Urouge revealed his well-built muscles, his fists clad in gauntlets. He struck with a powerful punch aid at Kumas body!
On top of a tall building above them, another rookie pirate, the Scratchn, Apoo, watched this scene and couldnt help but burst into laughter, saying, This is going to be entertaining!
..
anwhile, in another direction, Luffy and Trafalgar Law, who were fleeing, also encountered Bartholow Kuma!
Much like Hawkins group, they believed they had co face to face with the genuine forr Warlord, Kuma.
Why why is he here!? Nami was utterly shocked when she saw Kuma appear. Zoro, Trafalgar Law, and the others were drenched in cold sweat, imdiately gripping their weapons.
However, the imposing Kuma on the opposite side wordlessly removed his gloves, extending his right hand toward Luffy and the others.
In the next mont, a brilliant flash erupted from Kumas palm! With a faint whooshing sound, the beam of light shot toward Luffy and his companions location!
Watch out, a shock wave!
Sanji shouted, and the group reacted swiftly, jumping away from their original spots. The laser beam hit the ground where they had been standing, causing a massive explosion.
Hey, you lied about it being a shock wave! After evading the attack, Luffy shouted at Sanji.
Not an impact wave? Then what is it? Sanji asked, puzzled.
That was a Laser Beam! Luffy, Chopper, and the transvestite, Bon Clay, exclaid in unison, their eyes sparkling with stars as they salivated together.
Then, the three goofballs began playfully nudging each others shoulders, continuing to sing and dance in place, Laser Beam! Laser Beam!!
Franky Radical Beam! Iron Man Franky clasped his hands together and fired a powerful Radical Beam at the looming bear, sending it flying with a single blast.
Second Gear! Luffy abandoned the fun and his body emitted a heat aura, signaling he was getting serious.
Room! Trafalgar Law beckoned with his fingers, opening up his surgical space.
Zoro drew his sword, placing it in his mouth, ready for battle. However, he couldnt help but feel sothing was different about Kuma they were facing compared to the one they encountered in the Thriller Bark.
Indeed, if Ian were here, he would have recognized it instantly. Kuma they were facing now, whether it was Hawkins or Luffys group, was actually a Pacifista!
.
Karma Retribution! Urouge, using boxing techniques, was currently delivering a relentless beating to the Pacifista they had encountered. His punches were incredibly powerful, and one after another, they forced the Pacifista to retreat.
When Urouge landed a brutal punch that sent the Pacifista crashing to the ground, he thought the battle had concluded.
However, in the next mont, a brilliant flash appeared, and a laser pierced through Urouges arm.
Aaaaaah! Urouge scread in agony, collapsing to the ground.
The Pacifista slowly got up, emitting smoke from a circular hole in its right palm.
Is that Kizarus laser? Drake saw this and was secretly astonished. He hadnt expected the Pacifista to have advanced to this level.
Beside him, Kizaru noticed Drakes astonishnt and spoke, Rear Admiral Drake or should I say, forr Rear Admiral? Are you investigating them? Why not try it yourself?
Drake remained expressionless. As a forr Rear Admiral of the Marines, he was well aware of the Pacifistas plans. He knew that when Kizaru ntioned them, he was referring to the Pacifistas.
Just then, after Urouge had been badly hurt and was trying to get up, the Pacifista lunged at Drake. In the Pacifistas eyes, everyone in front of them was a target, without any specific focus.
Drake swiftly turned, his hands undergoing a rapid transformation as he grabbed the Pacifistas incoming fist. His entire body then transford into the likeness of a fearso dinosaur, opening a gaping maw and biting down on the Pacifistas head.
Ancient Zoan-type Devil Fruit!
With an imnsely powerful bite, the Pacifistas head has started tearing apart. However, for a Pacifista that felt no pain, as long as it could still function, it could counterattack. Extending its hand, the Pacifistas palm directly touched Drakes dinosaur neck, and another laser burst through the muscles on his neck and shot into the sky.
Injured, Drake had no choice but to revert to his original form and leap away.
anwhile, Urouge, who had been watching Drakes battle beside him, was still marveling at the rare Devil Fruit he had witnessed. However, Kizaru appeared behind him, delivering a lightspeed kick straight to his waist.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Urouges massive body was sent crashing through several buildings by Kizarus kick, finally landing in a pile of rubble, his fate uncertain.
Devil Conquering Phase! Hawkins assud his battle stance, transforming into a nacing straw man. He launched an attack against Kirazu, but Kirazu swiftly evaded his attacks, and a barrage of lasers followed, striking Hawkins body repeatedly.
Under the combined assault of Kirazu and the Pacifista, the three Supernovas were overwheld. Seeing this from a nearby skyscraper, the Scratchn Apoo, realized the gravity of the situation and rushed to their aid.
Playing his own body like an instrunt, Apoo produced a lodious tune that caught Kirazus attention. But in a surprising twist, he pounded his chest and emitted a powerful soundwave that detonated Kirazus body!
Kirazus smoking torso collapsed to the ground, but Apoo knew he couldnt defeat a Marine Admiral. His intervention had rely created an opportunity for Hawkins and the others to escape. So, he quickly fled.
This was a classic hit-and-run tactic.
However, as he made his escape, Kirazu, who had been lying on the ground, suddenly stood up, his lower body reforming from light. He looked at the fleeing Apoo and chuckled, You gave
quite a scare!
Eight Span Mirror! Kirazu placed his hands around his stomach, and a dazzling corridor of light refracted among the surrounding buildings, reaching Apoos side. Then, he followed this path of light, instantly appearing above Apoo. With an axe-like kick of light, Kirazu sent Apoo crashing from mid-air straight into the ground!
As Apoo was struck, Kirazu instantly moved in front of Drake, who had no idea what had just transpired. Without any warning, Kirazu kicked him into a nearby building.
Next, Kirazu materialized in front of Hawkins. With a pointed finger, another laser pierced through Hawkins body. Although Kirazu was curious about how Hawkins remained unhard after being struck by the laser, he knew that Hawkins ability likely had a limited number of uses. Therefore, he continuously fired lasers at Hawkins, depleting the straw mans puppet-like defenses.
Hawkins defenses were soon exhausted, and he spat out blood, clutching his chest as he knelt. Kirazu realized that Hawkins ability seed to have been depleted, so he prepared to deliver the final blow, his fingertip glowing with laser energy.
Four rookies with bounties exceeding 100 million Berries, including Hawkins with a bounty of 249 million Berries, Drake with a bounty of 222 million Berries, Apoo with a bounty of 198 million Berries, and Urouge with a bounty of 180 million Berries, had gained notoriety in the recent tis as formidable pirates. However, facing the attack of a Marine Admiral, they were utterly outmatched.
It was an overwhelming display of power!
Despair filled Hawkins as he gazed at Kirazus glowing fingertip. He felt an unprecedented level of hopelessness; the difference in power was just too great.
Kirazus current presence reminded Hawkins of the feeling he had when he encountered Ian in the North Blue. However, the circumstances were different this tiback then, Ian had spared him, but now, facing Kirazu, he was about to et his end.
Could it be that my divination was wrong? Hawkins thought to himself as he closed his eyes, preparing to receive Kirazus final blow.
But just as Kirazu was about to unleash the laser, a sudden shadow shrouded his position.
W-What is that!?
Kirazu raised his head and saw a massive ship flying in the sky above him, or more accurately, flying in the gaps of the Yaruman Mangroves!
This ship was more familiar to Kirazu than anything else because it had been docked in the port of Marineford before he left the Marine Headquarters!
The Ark Maxim! That brat Ian actually ca!
What is that? Hawkins also raised his head, staring dumbfoundedly at the underside of the ship in the sky. anwhile, Urouge, Drake, and Apoo, who had climbed out of the ruins and rubble, also noticed the strange ship hovering above them. It was their first ti seeing such a flying vessel.
As the ship reached the position directly above them, it gradually ca to a halt. Then, everyone heard an exasperated voice coming from the ship.
Damn it!! Kirazu, how dare you damage my ship!!!?
Upon hearing this voice, Kirazus smiling and amiable expression vanished, replaced by a grim one. As for Hawkins and the others, upon hearing this voice, they were all left in shock.
Who on that ship dared to angrily scold a Marine Admiral like this!?
However, they also noticed sothing peculiar on the underside of the flying shiptwo round holes
It wasnt Kirazu! When Hawkins saw these two holes, he imdiately realized what had happened. He looked at the Pacifista, who was still looking up at the sky. Hawkins rembered the two laser shots fired by Kuma earlier. One had hit Urouge, and the other had hit Drake, but both shots had been angled almost vertically!
Could it be true? Could this ship be so unlucky that both laser shots fired into the sky had coincidentally hit its underside?
Ian, get down! Kirazu was no longer polite. He shouted up towards the ship, You dared to escape from Marine Headquarters, and Ive received the report. I must bring you back! Since weve crossed paths here, lets settle this!
When Hawkins heard Kirazus shout and looked up, he thought, Ian!? Could it be him!?
For so reason, when he heard that na, Hawkins suddenly felt relieved. He knew he was saved
The divination wasnt wrong It referred to him as the benefactor, Hawkins thought.
Sure enough, when they heard Kirazus shout, a head erged from the side of the ship in the sky. Hawkins had excellent eyesight and imdiately recognized the persons face. Who else could it be but the Black Dragon Ian, one of the Seven Warlords?
On the other hand, Drake, Urouge, and Apoo, the three of them, were feeling quite bleak. They hadnt expected that they would encounter not only one of the Shichibukai, Kuma, but now there was another one on the island. This was turning out to be quite the adventure.
Ian had also arrived at Saboady Archipelago. He had intended to cross over the Yaruman Mangroves on top of the Ark Maxim to reach the location where Rayleigh was. However, unexpectedly, two laser shots had penetrated the ships hull, causing a malfunction in the control system of the Wind Dial!
Ian was no stranger to these lasers, and he imdiately realized that Kirazu was below him. However, there was a slight misunderstanding. He thought Kirazu had noticed his ship and attacked it. Ian wasnt one to back down from a challenge, so he had the Ark Maxim descend, intending to confront Kirazu.
As he peeked out from the side of the ship and saw Kirazu below, he also noticed the presence of the Pacifista units on the ground. He was montarily puzzled but quickly realized that what happened was not Kirazus doing. It was likely that the two laser shots were fired by the Pacifista units, not Kirazu.
Damn! Maybe Kirazu hadnt even seen his ship. It was Ian who had voluntarily exposed himself
Frustrated by the situation, Ian couldnt back down now. He opened his Black Flaming Wings and descended towards the ground.
At the sa ti, Enel also jumped down with him!
As they landed, Drake and the others noticed Ian and Enel. When Urouge saw Enel, he was utterly stunned.
God!? Youre here!?
