William, torn to pieces, dispersed into steam, then reformed into a single human form. He looked down at the red-eyed navy man below, noticing that his clothes were torn and his cloak was riddled with holes, and frowned.
“Sazil?”
He recognized this person; back in the East Blue, he had mistaken him for Kuro's man.
Of course, he is also called Kuro, but he is not quite the same as the real Kuro.
"Oh, it's you, William!"
Hearing the voice, Sazir looked up, raised his fist, and sneered, "You're quite hateful too, looking down on me. My name is also Kuro, why do you always call me by my last name? Do you think I'm not worthy of this name!"
William demanded, "What are you trying to do, Sazir? Did you do these things?"
"What are you talking about? I'm a Marine, a force for justice!"
Sazir clenched his fists tighter and tighter, making a cracking sound. "When I arrived, they were already like this. I originally wanted to retreat, but I was also angry. My subordinates dared to defy me, so I could only let them lie on the ground and rest. Of course, I didn't kill anyone; I don't kill my colleagues. But I had nowhere to vent my anger. Luckily, you came..."
He pulled his fist back and said coldly, "You're a pirate, killing you wouldn't be a big deal, would it?"
"Strike Tide - Rising Wind!"
Bang!
He punched out, 'bombing' the air in front of him, creating a huge beam of wind that shot directly at William like a cannonball.
In an instant, half of William's body was blasted away by the gust of wind, but soon, a large amount of steam emerged from his remaining lower body, forming the shape of William.
"Are you looking for death, Saziel?!"
William said grimly, "Is your action on behalf of the Navy against me?"
"Why do you care about all that? All I want right now is to defeat you and make you acknowledge me!"
Sazier leaped forward, his fist radiating an aura of dominance, and launched a punch at William.
To deal with Logia-type characters, you still need to use Haki!
As for William, Sazier's current state was very strange, but since they had already attacked him...
Steam Punch!
High-temperature steam shot out directly from William's fist, and the force of the steam accelerated the fist, delivering an explosive punch to Sazir's fist.
"Domineering aura isn't everything, you know. My power is far greater than yours!"
William strained his arm and lunged forward, about to knock Sazir down.
Sazir suddenly laughed, "It's not like you're the only one with that ability!"
Bang!
As soon as he finished speaking, William's fists, which were clashing with Sazel's, seemed to encounter something elastic, deflecting off Sazel's fist and ricocheting upwards.
"My fruit can 'defeat' everything!"
Sazir stretched out his other hand, his five fingers spread wide, as if grasping at the air, and flung it forward.
"Tear the wind!"
call!
The air he tore apart was like several whips and sharp blades, tearing William's body apart with a flick of his arm.
"I told you not to do anything reckless! Don't you understand the natural system, Sazel!" William roared as his head healed.
"Call me Kuro!"
Sazier's voice rang out from above William. He leaped into the air, raising his legs high, his calves radiating an aura of dominance, and slammed them down hard on William, whose body had just healed.
William was startled and quickly crossed his arms to block Sazir's legs.
"I told you, I strike 'everything'!" Sazir shouted, his eyes bloodshot, as he slashed down with all his might, unleashing his power just a short distance from William's arm's length away.
It wasn't a physical strike, but rather the power of the 'Fight-Fight Fruit' that created a strange elasticity, causing William's body to fall straight down, crashing into the ground like a cannonball.
Bang!
A cloud of smoke rose from the ground.
"Hehehe, hahaha! A mere Shichibukai? I can beat him!"
Sazir burst into laughter, suddenly raising his hands high, his face contorted with rage. "I'll give you a real scare, so you'll truly know me!"
Kuro once commented on his own ability, suggesting that he try to learn from Kuma. It's likely that his ability is a lower-level ability than Kuma's, but the essence is the same. If developed properly, it's possible to achieve the same level of proficiency as Kuma.
Bear!
That was someone Kuro called a 'strong one'.
So according to Kuro...
Wait, who is Kuro?
Aren't I Kuro myself?
His eyes grew increasingly red.
Never mind, it's not important. All he needs to know is that he can use this move himself. Although he can't compress it, he can definitely create an air wave!
"Blowing away your steam is a piece of cake!"
Sazir spread his five fingers wide, grabbing the air as if he were going to turn the sky upside down. Visibly, the air above him materialized into a giant sphere.
As the dust settled, William's eyes widened at the sight. "Hey, what are you doing! You're a Marine! Don't you care about the lives of the people here?!"
"Hehehehehe!!"
His response was a series of wild laughs.
What's going on here?
Has this guy quit the navy?
But becoming a pirate right under your nose isn't so easy!
At this rate, even if he defeats me, he still won't become a Shichibukai. Kuro won't let him off the hook.
Moreover, he could never be his opponent.
Why do we have to do this?
While William was somewhat lost in thought, the ground behind him suddenly turned purplish-black, and a shadowy spike pierced directly into his heart, instantly filling William's eyes with bloodshot veins.
"Don't joke around. Do you think this kind of threat will stop me from doing anything? I am 'White Admiral' William, a Shichibukai!"
William was enveloped in steam, which filled the surrounding area. His voice, which came from within the steam, became deep and powerful, "Let me show you, little Marine, what the true strength of the Seven Warlords of the Sea is like!"
...
"Hasn't Sazir called yet?"
Two warships were sailing on the sea. Inside the fortress of one of the warships, Kuro was smoking a cigar and asked a question to Kuro, who was constantly on the phone.
Kro shook his head: "No one answered, I don't know what's going on."
"What's going on? How am I supposed to know what's going on if you don't report it in time? Is Sazier unreliable these days?"
Kuro exhaled a puff of smoke, then suddenly realized something was wrong. Why did he use 'also'?
Is it a subconscious belief that all subordinates are unreliable?
But thinking about it, it actually makes perfect sense!
