Chapter 391 A being as powerful as the Blood-Eyed Ninja is simply beyond our ability to contend with.
"Cough cough...you wretched little thing..."
Hody, stuck in the wood, said with a ferocious expression, "Not bad."
She actually knocked him onto Noah's Ark in one go... I really underestimated her."
If he hadn't taken the dangerous drug, this blow might have knocked him unconscious!
"And that Shark Star," Hody said angrily, "If it weren't for him, I would have killed those two humans already!"
What a meddlesome jerk!
After cursing under his breath, Hody flexed his muscles and emerged from the ship, then turned to look in the direction where Mary and the others had been.
"Um?"
"They've disappeared..." Hody frowned. "Did Shark Star take them aboard this ship?"
If you think about it carefully, it's not impossible.
After all, the human girl's goal from the beginning was to get Straw Hat Boy into that place.
"In that case, I'll go find you on the ship," Hody said with a sneer. "I might as well go find Vander Deikun too!"
After a cold laugh, Hody burst out of the crater and rushed towards the direction where he had previously seen Vander Deikun. "You just wait, Vander Deikun!"
He wanted to make this traitor understand just how serious the consequences of betraying him were!
"This ship is even more extravagant than I imagined," said Melly, looking up at the ship.
I wonder if she has the ability to control this ship.
"It is indeed very big." Luffy, who was also looking up at the sky, nodded, then turned to Merry and asked, "Merry, can you control this?"
If Meryl can control this ship, could she forcibly move it away?
"I don't know."
Mary shook her head honestly and said, "I haven't tried it."
"Then give it a try!"
Luffy seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes lit up as he said, "If you can control this ship, you can compete with that guy named Deacon for control."
That way...they won't need to care about this ship anymore!
"Luffy," Merry said with some helplessness, "this ship is currently in a damaged state and cannot sail. Although she did not go up to check, she could judge the condition of the ship just by observing its appearance."
A ship damaged like this is absolutely impossible to continue sailing!
"Is that so?" Luffy asked疑惑地, "Then why was the Going Merry able to move back at Enies Lobby?"
"That's because Uncle Iceberg fixed me," Mei explained.
If it weren't for Uncle Iceberg helping her repair the ship, even with her special ability to control the ship, she wouldn't have been able to sail to Enies Lobby to rescue people.
"So that's how it is..."
Luffy fell silent after speaking, realizing that something like that had happened back then.
"I don't know what you mean, but Noah's Ark really can't sail right now," Shark Star said without turning his head. "To get this ship moving, we need to repair it first."
But the current situation doesn't allow them to do that, so Shark Star didn't consider how long the repair would take.
Luffy frowned upon hearing this. This was a tricky situation. It seemed the only options were to have Coward Star lure the ship away or forcibly destroy it.
No matter what, he wouldn't allow that ship to land on Fishman Island!
After all... their comrades are up there!
"Alright, stop overthinking it." Meili looked up at the enormous Noah's Ark in the sky and said, "Even if that thing really crashes down, it's okay. I believe Xiyan can stop it."
In her opinion, with Xi Yan's current strength, stopping this thing shouldn't be a problem.
After all... that man is really strong now!
Luffy simply nodded in response and said nothing more.
After all... he trusted Mei Li and west Yan completely!
Shark Star, however, showed a shocked expression. Why did it stop Noah's Ark?
Just how terrifying is Lord Xiyan's current strength?
Although we don't know exactly how strong that man is now, if he can really do something like that... then their Fishman Island will be saved!
Thinking of this, Shark Star's eyes became incredibly excited, and its tail swung faster and faster.
Soon, thanks to his efforts, the three of them successfully reached the bow of the ship.
"There they are!" Luffy pointed in Shirahoshi's direction and said, "Cowardly Star and West Flame are over there!"
Although the light here wasn't very bright, his Observation Haki still managed to detect the presence of the two people.
"I saw it."
Shark Star nodded, then quickly rushed towards White Star.
"Um?"
As if sensing something, west Yan, who was chatting with Shirahoshi, subconsciously turned his head to look to the side and then noticed Luffy standing behind Shark Star.
"Luffy?"
west Yan looked surprised and said, "What are you doing here?"
Shouldn't Luffy be fighting Hody on Fishman Island at this time? Why is he here?
Could it be... that the battle in the square is over?
That's impressive efficiency!
"west Yan!"
"Quick, save Merry!" Luffy said anxiously.
"Merry?"
west Yan was taken aback for a moment, then his expression changed and he asked, "What's wrong with Mei Li?"
"She's injured."
As he spoke, Luffy bent down and lifted Merry from Shark Star's hair, then continued, "Hurry up and heal her."
"So it was inside her hair." Xi Yan murmured upon seeing this, "No wonder I didn't see Mei Li earlier."
After saying that, west Yan's body instantly disappeared onto Bai Xing's shoulder.
When it reappeared, it was already on the back of Shark Star.
This scene completely stunned Huang Xing and Fan Che Xing.
"So fast!"
It covered dozens of meters in an instant... What terrifying speed is that?
Even the fish-men race couldn't achieve such terrifying speed in the deep sea.
Bai Xing and Sha Xing were also shocked as they looked at west Yan, clearly not expecting this human to be so terrifying.
Ignoring the reactions of the others, west Yan took Merry from Luffy's arms and carefully checked her wounds.
"west Yan..."
Seeing west Yan carefully examining her wounds, Mei Li immediately stopped crying, tears streaming down her face.
"Don't be afraid." west Yan looked at Mei Li with heartache, reached out and rubbed the little one's head, and said, "With me here, you'll be fine."
"Um.,
The little one nodded, then said with teary eyes, "But it hurts so much..."
She felt like her arm was about to break; it really hurt.
"It's alright, Mary, it's alright..."
As west Yan unleashed his medical ninjutsu, he said, "It won't hurt anymore once you're healed."
"good..
"What happened to Mary?" Bai Xing asked anxiously. "How did she get hurt?"
She longed to come closer and check on the little girl, but because of the enormous Noah's Ark behind her, she could only continue swimming upstream.
"Explain yourself, Luffy." west Yan turned to look at Luffy and asked, "Why was Merry injured?"
"And why are you here?"
Normally, shouldn't Chopper have given Merry emergency treatment to stop the bleeding?
"I saw Hody coming here, so I decided to come and chase him down," Luffy said. "And Merry thought she could help me, so she came with me."
"Merry came with you to chase Hody in the ocean?" west Yan asked, frowning.
Was it Melie who asked to come along...?
"Yes." Luffy nodded honestly and said, "It's also thanks to Merry that I'm here, otherwise I would be dead."
After saying that, Luffy paused for a moment, then continued, "As for Merry's injury... it was Hody who caused it."
After hearing Luffy's explanation, west Yan understood what had happened.
Then, anger appeared on west Yan's face.
"That bastard Hody dared to hurt Mary like this... He deserves to die!"
"Is Merry alright?" Luffy asked worriedly.
"With me here, he'll be cured quickly."
Although Meli is too small to stop the bleeding on her own, she can be healed quickly using medical ninjutsu.
"That's good..."
Luffy first breathed a sigh of relief, then his face darkened as he said, "Xiyan, give me that. I need to go find Hody!"
He will absolutely not let this bastard who dared to lay a hand on Mary get away with it!
"it is good."
Xi Yan nodded, understanding what Luffy meant, and then used Wood Release to create a clone.
"Is this the legendary clone?!" Huang Xing exclaimed in surprise as he looked at Xi Yan's wooden clone. "It's exactly the same as the original!"
You can't even spot this tiny flaw!
Although Shark Star was also quite surprised, he knew that now was not the time to discuss these matters, so he said, "When I came here just now, I glanced at Noah's Ark and found that there was no air on it."
"So... you'd be at a huge disadvantage fighting Hody up there."
Even with this bubble, it's useless, since... it's all seawater on top!
"No air is fine," Luffy said. "As long as we have that West Flame ninjutsu, there won't be any problems."
Although the fish-men become incredibly powerful in the deep sea, Xi Yan's ninjutsu can also grant him formidable combat abilities in the deep sea!
This time, he's going to take down Hody in the deep sea in a fair and square way!
"What do you mean?"
Several question marks simultaneously appeared on the faces of the three Shark Star brothers, clearly not understanding what Luffy meant.
Luffy had no intention of explaining to them, as that would be too troublesome.
Once west Yan's technique is unleashed, the opponent will naturally understand.
Understanding what Luffy was thinking, the West Flame clone nodded, then turned around and came to the side of the main body, taking out a scroll from the main body's ninja tool pouch.
"bump"
A wisp of white smoke drifted by, and a bucket of special resin appeared in west Yan's hands.
Shark Star: !!!
What is this thing?
Creating something out of thin air?
Or is it spatial capability?
"Lord Xiyan can actually take things out of the scroll?" Bai Xing asked in surprise, who had been looking back to observe the situation.
"Well, I guess it's one of my abilities," west Yan replied without turning his head.
Then, west Yan took out the resin and combined it with Water Release techniques to release a special version of Water Release: Dance of Swimming Fish for Luffy!
"Buzz"
The next moment, a thin membrane appeared on Luffy's body, protecting him firmly inside.
"This is a bubble?!"
Fanchexing stared in shock at the bubbles on Luffy's body, clearly not expecting Lord Xiyan to create such a thing.
Their body coating technology is far more advanced than that of the merfolk!
At least the bubbles they wear close to their skin aren't this strong!
"More or less," west Yan nodded and said.
In a sense, his ninjutsu can indeed be considered a special kind of bubble.
It's just that this bubble has more comprehensive functions.
"Finally, I can move freely in the deep sea..."
Luffy clenched his fists, his eyes gradually sharpening.
"Luffy!"
"profound!"
Luffy nodded upon hearing Xiyan's words, then turned to look at Noah's Ark behind him and said, "I will take down Hody!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luffy burst out of the bubble with a whoosh and rushed towards Noah's Ark behind him!
If I remember correctly, the other party was right behind Noah's Ark!
"His speed has increased so much!" Shark Star exclaimed in surprise. "Is this the power of your ninjutsu?"
"Yes."
west Yan nodded and said, "This ninjutsu not only allows humans to stay in the deep sea for extended periods of time, but also minimizes the impact of seawater on humans."
This ninjutsu could grant humans deep-sea mobility similar to that of fish-men!
"Then Hody's advantage is gone," Shark Star laughed.
The reason Hody was able to beat the Straw Hat Pirates so badly was because of the Fish-Men's agility in the deep sea.
But now that the Straw Hat Pirates have this ability too, so... Hody is doomed!
"Indeed."
Huangxing and Fanchexing nodded in agreement, clearly also agreeing with their elder brother's words.
"Hody has absolutely no advantage against this straw hat kid."
"west Yan, will I be left with a scar..." Mei Li looked up at Xi Yan and asked.
She would be very upset if she had an ugly scar on her arm.
"Don't worry," west Yan said softly, "With me here, it won't happen."
"That's good..."
After receiving an affirmative answer, a smile returned to Mary's face.
But that smile... looks a little pale.
Seeing this, Shark Star sighed silently, realizing how difficult it was for this little girl.
Then, he turned his gaze to Noah's Ark behind him, thinking to himself, "I wonder where that guy Hody is now."
Noah's Ark is so big, finding him is no easy task.
Thinking of this, Shark Star said, "I'll go with Straw Hat Boy over there and see if I can be of any help."
"Go."
Without even looking up, west Yan said, "Leave this to us."
As soon as he finished speaking, west Yan's wood clone released a water jutsu, creating a water dragon that carried the group and Bubble, and together with Bai Xing, they swam away into the distance.
"Water dragon..."
Shark Star immediately showed a surprised expression. Is this Lord Xi Yan's Water Escape Technique?
Amazing!
However, this means that he is no longer needed here.
With that thought in mind, Shark Star turned around and rushed into the distance without hesitation.
"Hody!!"
"You come out here!" Luffy roared.
"Um?"
Hody, who had just arrived not far from Vander Deikun, paused for a moment, then turned his head in surprise to look up and said, "That voice is... Straw Hat Boy?"
This guy not only doesn't want to run away, but he's also provoking me?
Looking for death?
After thinking for a moment, Hody shook his head and said, "Forget it, we can kill the Straw Hat Boy at any time. Let's deal with Vander Deikun first."
Otherwise, Noah's Ark might be moved from the sky above Fishman Island, making his plan impossible to implement!
With that thought in mind, Hody quickly rushed toward Vander Deiken.
Upon arriving before Vander Deacon, Hody coldly remarked, "I've been looking all this way, Vander Deacon!"
"You bastard, how dare you carry that...!"
Before Hody could finish speaking, he realized something was wrong. Why was Vander Deikun acting as if he hadn't seen him at all, remaining completely still?
Hody, puzzled, waved his hand in front of Vander Deikun's eyes, trying to see what was going on, but the other man didn't react at all!
"Is he dead?" Hody asked, puzzled.
Instinctively, he raised his hand to touch Vander Deacon's pulse and then discovered that the man was not dead.
"He's not dead..." Hody asked in surprise, "Then why didn't he react at all?"
It's as if I've been controlled...
After thinking for a moment, Hody shook his head and said, "Forget it, the most important thing is to kill this guy."
Although he didn't know exactly what had happened, he didn't necessarily need to find out.
After all... his goal from the very beginning was to kill Vander Deacon!
Thinking of this, Hody did not hesitate to stab Vander Deacon with the fork in his hand, piercing through his body!
"puff!"
"Ugh!"
Van der Deikun, whose body had been pierced, let out a painful growl, but his body remained under control.
Seeing this, Hody frowned and said, "It seems that this simple attack won't be able to kill you."
Since that's the case... then let's cut it in half!
Thinking of this, Hody didn't hesitate to take out a large knife that looked like a shark's dorsal fin.
Then... without any mercy, they cut Van der Deikun in half!
"puff!"
"ah!!!"
Van der Deikun, who was cut in half at the waist, was immediately awakened to consciousness by the extreme pain, while his body was also in a near-death state.
Van der Deiken turned his head and glanced at his own body, his expression immediately becoming somewhat distorted.
"My body..."
His internal organs were pierced, and his body was severed at the waist.
With injuries of this severity, he'll probably die soon.
Damn it, why did this happen?!
"Shrimp hahahaha"
"Looks like you've finally regained consciousness, Vander Deacon," Hody said with a sneer.
"Hody?"
Van der Deikun, who had fallen to the ground, turned to look at Hody and then noticed the still-dripping blood knife in the other man's hand.
This immediately made Vander Deiken understand why he had been cut in half.
"You're the one who cut me?!"
Why?!
Answer me, Hody!
Looking at Vander Deacon, who seemed even more energetic after his brief moment of lucidity, Hody sneered, "That's right, it's me."
"You traitor, you planned to kill me too, how could I possibly let you go?"
He would show no mercy to traitors!
"Ah. So that's how it is..."
Van der Deiken, whose expression gradually became listless, immediately understood Hody's thoughts.
That's true. If it were him, he wouldn't have held back either.
"Alright, it probably won't be long before this giant Noah's Ark crashes onto Fishman Island." Hody looked up and said coldly, "Then all the humans on that island will die!"
As for the merfolk?
As long as those guys are smart enough, they can escape from the island. Then... even with absolute power, he will still have subordinates to use!
"You're even more ruthless than me..." Vander Deiken said.
While Noah's Ark crashing down would certainly kill those humans,... Hody's men would also die quite a few!
But this guy doesn't care at all... It has to be said, he really is!
"What right do you have to say such things, having just thrown Poseidon down here to die?" Hody scoffed.
We're in the same boat.
Then Hody said, "Vander Deacon, before you die, tell me who did what you did."
"Maybe if I'm in a good mood, I can even help you get revenge~"
"Shrimp hahahaha"
Upon hearing Hody's words, Vander Deiken immediately understood what the other man was thinking.
They wanted to get information about that man out of him.
But how could he possibly tell such an important thing to the murderer who killed him?
"You think I'd tell you?" A dejected Vander Deikun said with difficulty, "Don't even dream about it!"
"Aren't you afraid I'll continue to torture you now?" Hody frowned.
Unfortunately, such words meant nothing to the dying Vander Deikun.
"Hody, what?"
Hody leaned close to Vander Deacon's mouth and said, "Speak louder, I can't hear you."
"I'll be waiting for you in hell..."
"Kah!" Upon hearing Vander Deiken's words, Hody's face immediately contorted with rage. This bastard actually dared to curse him.
Did Vander Deikun really think his dead ancestor could curse him?
Thinking of this, Hody retorted, "Do you think I'd be like a piece of trash like you?"
"Not only will I not die, I will become the king of Fishman Island!"
"You piece of trash, just stay down there and watch!"
"Hahaha~"
As he finished speaking, Hody couldn't help but burst into laughter, as if he could already see that scene unfolding before his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Vander Deiken opened his mouth, wanting to say something sarcastic to Hordy.
But since his body could no longer make a sound, he looked at Hody with a mocking gaze in an attempt to disgust him.
"Looking at me like that won't do any good, because what you're hoping for will never happen!" Hody said coldly.
He will kill all the rebels, and then... become the true king of Fishman Island!
Shrimp laughed heartily, and after hearing Hody's words, Vander Deikun's mockery intensified.
Hody...you have no idea what you're dealing with.
That man is someone like you or me who can't possibly handle!
Let's keep each other company on the road to the underworld! Just then, west Yan appeared above Noah's Ark, carrying two people in his hands.
"Vander Deiken was cut in half at the waist, huh?" Frowning as he looked down at west Yan, he thought, "No wonder the illusion was dispelled..."
"Hey, what are you doing?!" Luffy, being held like a chick by Xi Yan, complained, "Don't hold me like that, I'm going to find Hody!"
Shark Star looked at Xi Yan with some embarrassment. It felt so awkward for someone as big as him to be carried in the hands of someone so small.
west Yan ignored the two idiots and stared intently at Vander Deiken, who had been cut in half by Hody.
"This is really... beyond my expectations."
Luffy and Shark Star were stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then turned to look at the place where Xi Yan was looking.
"That one that was cut in half... Vander Deikun?!"
Upon seeing what had happened, Shark Star's pupils shrank to their maximum size.
If that man is killed, Noah's Ark will fall!
Upon realizing this, Shark Star immediately panicked.
What should I do?
Luffy seemed to understand something, glanced down at Noah's Ark, and said, "If this person is killed... will this ship sink?"
"Yes."
"Do you have a way to save him?" Luffy asked, pointing at Vander Decken.
If we can save this person's life, then there shouldn't be any problems, right?
"He's injured like this, there's no hope for him," west Yan said in a deep voice.
With injuries of this severity, medical ninjutsu alone cannot save the opponent.
"What do we do then?" Shark Star said frantically, "If Vander Deikun dies... this ship is going to sink!"
Once this ship lands on Fishman Island, Fishman Island is doomed!
west Yan did not answer the question, but instead frowned as he looked at Vander Deiken, pondering what to do next.
"Then why don't we just smash this thing?" Luffy said.
"no."
Shark Star shook his head decisively and said, "This ship is of great importance to our Fishman Island, it cannot be destroyed."
"Then what do you suggest we do?"
"Um?"
Hearing the commotion, Hody instinctively turned to look at the sea above, then sneered, "Heh, I didn't expect you guys to dare come looking for trouble... You really have no sense of mortality!"
"In that case, let me..."
Before Hody could finish speaking, he realized something was wrong: why weren't these two humans covered in bubbles?
How can he move freely without bubbles?
At this moment, Hody's heart was filled with confusion.
"Humans, how did you do that?"
west Yan ignored the guy and turned to Luffy, saying, "Luffy, do what you're supposed to do. Leave this ship to me."
Although things have become a bit complicated, they are not unmanageable.
"Okay, I understand."
Luffy, who had absolute trust in Xiyan, nodded and then quickly rushed towards Hody, shouting, "Hody!"
"I won't let you get away with this!"
"Straw Hat Boy!"
Seeing Luffy getting closer and closer, Hody decisively abandoned his thoughts and grinned maliciously, "Although I don't know what's going on with you, as long as you humans are in the ocean, you can never be a match for us fish-men!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hody moved swiftly, rushing to Luffy's side in the blink of an eye.
The next moment.
"bump!!!"
"boom!"
Their fists collided violently, immediately causing the surrounding seawater to surge!
"To think you could keep up with my speed in the ocean..." Hody, observing Luffy up close, said, "Is it because of that strange membrane on your body?"
Could this be a special technology that the Neptune royal family of the Dragon Palace specially researched for humanity?
Thinking of this, Hody's eyes turned cold.
"He invented this thing specifically for humans... He truly deserves to be called a traitor who is close to humanity!"
Today, the Neptune royal family must die!
"That's right, that's why," Luffy said coldly. "Now, you're no match for me!"
"How arrogant!"
"You think this is my maximum speed?" Hody roared. "Let me show you the power of the merfolk in the deep sea!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hody vanished from the spot.
When it reappeared, it was already to Luffy's side.
"Go to hell!" Hody shouted.
As he spoke, he thrust the harpoon in his hand toward Luffy's head, as if he intended to kill Luffy.
But what happened next stunned Hody, because Luffy simply tilted his head and dodged his harpoon attack.
Hody: ? ? ?
No, why is it like this again?
How the hell did this damn human discover his attack?
"Snapped!"
After grabbing Hody's harpoon, Luffy coldly said, "How could you possibly hit me when you don't even have Observation Haki?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luffy punched Hody in the stomach.
"Rubber Jet Pistol!"
"bump!!"
The fist, brimming with domineering power, slammed into Hody's abdomen, causing his eyes to bulge out, and he quickly flew towards Noah's Ark behind him!
"boom!!"
"That's amazing!"
Shark Star stared in astonishment at Luffy's retreating figure and said, "Is this the power of that ninjutsu?"
To allow a Devil Fruit user to gain such immense power in the deep sea... truly worthy of being called Lord Xiyan's ninjutsu!
"It's mainly because Luffy is strong," west Yan said.
The "Dance of the Fish" ninjutsu, in essence, only grants the user the ability to move freely underwater; it does not actually enhance combat power.
Luffy is able to achieve this mainly because he is strong enough.
"Is that so...?"
Shark Star was stunned for a moment. Did that mean... Straw Hat Luffy's strength was also very powerful?
As expected of Lord Xiyan's partner, you're really amazing!
After a moment of reflection, Shark Star turned to Xi Yan and asked, "Lord Xi Yan, how do you plan to resolve the current situation?"
Although Vander Deikun is not dead yet, he could die at any moment after being cut in half at the waist!
Therefore... we must come up with a solution as soon as possible.
This time, west Yan did not answer immediately, but lowered his head and thought for a moment.
Then he said, "Let's see if we can keep this guy alive."
If we can keep this guy alive, we can buy some time for Shirahoshi.
"Are you planning to treat him using the same methods used to treat Miss Meryl?" Shark Star asked.
"More or less," west Yan said. "However, Vander Decken's condition is quite serious. We can only try to keep him alive. As for whether we can keep him alive... we'll see."
If all else fails, the only option is to use water-based magic to move this enormous Noah's Ark away.
"Then let's give it a try," Shark Star nodded and said.
It's better to try anything than to do nothing.
west Yan nodded, then swam downwards, saying, "Let's go, let's go down and check the situation first."
"profound!"
