Chapter 198 Get rid of the pursuers
Artillery fire filled the sky and fell like raindrops, creating huge splashes on the sea.
The Merry also shook violently, and the sound of shells cutting through the air was sharp and piercing.
The bombs were as dense as meteors, and the Straw Hat Pirates were ultimately unable to intercept them all.
In an instant, four or five shells hit the Merry.
Thick smoke billowed and the pungent smell of gunpowder filled every inch of the air.
The short Chopper quickly grabbed the railing beside him to prevent himself from being shaken out of the Merry. Luffy and the others also frowned.
The impact of the explosion came one after another, and the calm sea became turbulent at this moment, as if it would swallow up the damaged Merry at any time.
"One sword style? A flash of starlight!"
On the navy's flagship, a tall lady slowly put away her knife and returned to the deck.
Suddenly, at the same time as the sky was filled with artillery fire, a dazzling slash as bright as a galaxy came.
The slash was like a galaxy shining with countless stars, with the brilliant light of the stars shining against each other, dreamy and dangerous.
"This is!"
As a swordsman, Zoro suddenly looked up, stared at the star-like slash, and frowned slightly.
"Wow, what a beautiful slash!"
Luffy has such a big heart that even when facing an attack that could completely destroy the Merry, he still had the leisure to discuss that slash.
"Yoshi, let me try!" Luffy stretched his muscles and was about to take action, but was stopped by Zoro beside him.
"Wait, leave it to me this time!"
Zoro's eyes were still fixed on the slash, he gripped the hilt with both hands, and the Golden Skyline and the Sandai Kitetsu were unsheathed at the same time.
"Thirty-six troubles in one life, seventy-two troubles in the next..."
"Two-sword style? Seventy-two troublesome phoenixes!!"
The blade tore through the air, and the airflow raged like a storm, and the surrounding air was compressed instantly.
As Zoro swung his two swords forward, a huge sword energy flew into the sky.
The swirling air currents were like seventy-two invisible angry dragons circling, interweaving and colliding with each other, making bursts of low roars, and then flying straight towards the slashing blow.
In just a moment, the two strikes collided fiercely.
In an instant, the space shook.
The galaxy and the tornado sword energy collided violently, bursting out with a strong light like the sun exploding.
The violent and powerful impact force spread in all directions, the sea was churning, countless shells were blown up before they could get close, and the clouds in the sky were also shaken and scattered.
On the main ship, Kuina looked up at the center of the explosion, with an undisguised smile on her lips.
Zoro, I haven't seen you for so many years, and you really didn't let me down!
And now, Lieutenant General Ghost Spider in the front left was looking at the explosion in the sky with a gloomy expression.
These pirates are more difficult to deal with than he imagined.
"All warships, stop covering fire!"
"Chase them and surround them completely!"
On the other side, seeing Zoro clear all the shells with one move, Usopp, Nami, Chopper and others' eyes lit up instantly.
He kept praising Zoro.
Yun Yi, who had been sitting on the observation tower on top of the mast, jumped down after seeing this scene and joined in the fun with the gang.
But soon, Nami pointed at the approaching warship and shouted, "Oh no, the navy is catching up."
Because of the previous bombardment, the Merry was already badly damaged and could not withstand any additional fighting.
"Okay, everyone, stand back a bit so you don't get scared!"
Reaching out his hand to stop everyone behind him, Yun Yi took light steps and walked to the front.
A golden light flashed in his bright eyes.
"Is it dark?"
"What's going on? I can't seem to see!!"
"Look! What is that??"
"Help! Help!!"
As Yun Yi used his abilities, the naval fleet not far away seemed to see some very terrifying scene.
They completely lost their strict military discipline and fled in panic like a mindless fly.
And it wasn't just the soldiers, even the most powerful Admiral Ghost Spider on the ship was frozen in place, not daring to move.
Sweat kept dripping from the forehead in the spider ghost's field of vision.
The sky seemed to collapse!
The world is dark, and the only light is the soaring golden dragon above.
But in the eyes of Vice Admiral Ghost Spider, this scene was so similar, just like many years ago.
The shadows roared and flew, and the clouds instantly collapsed. Even the sky was cracked into several hideous holes.
At this moment, a magnificent cry came from the sky.
"return to!"
As this voice sounded, in the sight of the naval soldiers, a huge wave that was a hundred meters high suddenly rose up, and it seemed that it could swallow them up at any time.
After hearing the warning, Lieutenant General Ghost Spider instinctively gave the order without any hesitation.
"Stop moving forward! Stop chasing!!"
Following the order, all naval ships immediately stopped the pursuit.
As the naval ship stopped moving, everyone felt that the sky suddenly cleared up.
The soaring golden dragon has disappeared without a trace.
Also disappearing was the dilapidated Merry.
"Lieutenant General! What was that just now?" an adjutant asked cautiously.
In just a few seconds, everyone felt like they were on the brink of death.
In fact, they did walk around the edge of the cliff of life and death.
Reaching out his trembling left hand, Ghost Spider wiped the sweat from his temples, and then said solemnly: "For thousands of years, Conqueror's Haki has been the most powerful force in the sea."
"People who possess Conqueror's Haki are almost all strong men on the sea. And as for Conqueror's Haki, each person's Conqueror's Haki has different characteristics."
"But so far, only that person's Conqueror Haki can transform into a giant dragon and kill the enemy directly on the spiritual level."
"Even the headquarters' Grand Admiral once doubted whether what he possessed was actually Conqueror's Haki? Or was it some ability similar to Conqueror's Haki?"
"He is the Lord of Fishman Island who possesses the most abilities in the world and whose cards are always hard to guess - Yun Yi!"
"Lord of Fishman Island!!" all the navy soldiers exclaimed at the same time.
Next to him, Smoker had a cigarette between his lips and clenched his fists in silence.
“I didn’t expect it to be this guy!”
"I was wondering why there was wind and thunder when we were in Rogue Town, and there was also a big golden bird."
"If it's him, then everything makes sense!"
"Sure enough, you haven't changed at all. You still love playing pranks as always!"
Dashigi on the side was extremely excited, as if she had just heard her idol, and even forgot about the embarrassment she had just experienced.
Kuina took out a handkerchief from her pocket, gently wiped the water off the North Star, and then sheathed the knife.
"Zoro, and Yun Yi! The Straw Hat Pirates are becoming more and more interesting!"
At the same time, Usopp, who had just escaped from the pursuers of the Straw Hat Pirates, was like he had lost his most beloved baby. He kept crying and repairing the damaged Merry with a hammer.
"Although my skills are much better than yours, I still can't rebuild the Merry!"
Can it be made? Of course it can be made. After all, there are hundreds of thousands of steel torrents in his secret factory.
However, this kind of thing has no effect on the Merry. In other words, it is of no benefit to the Merry.
In his previous life, Yun Yi remembered that there was such an interesting philosophical question, which was about replacing every part of a ship.
So is this ship still the original ship?
Many people discussed this issue, but everyone expressed their own opinions and no one seemed to be able to convince the other.
If the Merry is completely replaced with steel, is it still the Merry?
Well... the newly born ship elf may be able to give an answer to this question.
If a major replacement were to be carried out on the Merry now, perhaps the newly conceived ship spirit would completely perish.
Not worth the candle!
Yun Yi also held a hammer and helped Usopp repair the damaged Merry.
However, he seemed to have seen something interesting.
"As expected of someone who has been running for his life since childhood, this Robin is really good at hiding."
"I've been hiding on the Merry for so long without being discovered."
