"What was it called again?" Luffy tilted his head.
"Kro!!!"
Kro roared and charged forward, "I'll tear you to pieces! Straw Hat Boy!"
Seeing Kuro charging towards him, Luffy grinned, "I've got a great idea!"
He stretched out his arm and threw a punch at Kro.
"Idiot, I already told you, I know exactly what you're doing!"
Kro dodged the punch by sidestepping it, and sneered, "Don't think that just because I'm big I'm a target. Is your fighting spirit that weak? Haven't you learned your lesson yet? I'm so disappointed in you, Straw Hat Boy!"
"laugh!"
After missing his punch, Luffy suddenly laughed. His outstretched fist suddenly lashed out like a whip towards Kuro.
Snap!
Kuro grabbed Luffy's outstretched arm and tightened his grip, saying, "If you don't want it, I'll tear it to shreds first!"
"No way!"
As Luffy spoke, the arm that Kuro had been holding in his claws continued to swing, like a long rope, directly binding Kuro's thick arm.
At the same time, Luffy stretched out his other limbs and wrapped them around Kuro's limbs, binding him up.
"You say you understand my movements, but then you won't be able to dodge them!" Luffy chuckled.
This method of entanglement is exactly the same as it was back then!
That's how he lost two years ago!
Kro's eyes were bloodshot. "Using the same trick won't work. I still have my mouth!"
He opened his mouth wide and began to inhale, his chest and abdomen expanding.
"At this close range, you can't move yourself while you're tying me up, can you, Straw Hat Boy!"
Don't underestimate me!
Luffy stretched his head back, reaching all the way to the open space outside the ruins, and at the same time, he took a deep breath, "Gear Third!"
"A giant balloon!"
The head suddenly became enormous.
call!!
A strong gust of wind rushed towards Kuro as Luffy retracted his neck.
"Gum-Gum..." Luffy shouted.
"Six Kings Spear - Inuarashi Breath!"
Pale blue shockwaves formed by the slashes began to appear in Kro's mouth.
His physique wasn't up to Mr. Kuro's level, nor did he possess Rita's talent. He couldn't learn the "Thousand Strikes in an Instant" that Mr. Kuro spoke of, and he hadn't even mastered the "Black Rope Heavenly Flash." However, he could still execute a modified version that suited his own style.
Being hit by this move will not only create a powerful shockwave, but also result in being attacked by countless slashes simultaneously, which is not much different from 'a thousand strikes in an instant'.
Straw Hat Boy is made of rubber, so slashing attacks are his natural counter.
"Hey, Straw Hat Boy!"
Kro roared, his mouth moving as if he was about to unleash a furious roar.
Just then, the huge head that was charging towards them suddenly widened its eyes.
Suddenly, an inexplicable aura enveloped Kro.
It made his whole body stiffen, and his body went limp slightly.
"Conqueror's Haki?!" Sweat beaded on Clod's forehead.
This momentary opening allowed Luffy's head to crash into it at lightning speed.
His entire forehead was covered in Armament Haki, and in the instant that Kro was stunned, he slammed into his forehead.
"bell!!!"
BOOM!!!
A deafening roar, like the tolling of a bell, echoed through the ruins. Luffy then released his grip on Kuro, his massive head slamming against Kuro's forehead, sending Kuro's head lolling backward. The force of the impact propelled Luffy's entire body backward.
Bang!
The gate was smashed open by Kro's five-meter-tall werewolf body, which slid along the ground for a while before coming to a stop next to a ship.
His eyes rolled back, his teeth were clenched, and his body was trembling slightly; he had clearly been hit quite hard.
The ship next to him was the Thousand Sunny, which was docked there.
"Ah! Sonny, it's been a long time!"
Luffy's head shrank, he adjusted his straw hat, and grinned at the ships in the harbor.
"Hey, Luffy!"
At that moment, sounds gradually rose from outside the ruins.
Zoro, Usopp, Nami, Sanji, Chopper, Robin, Franky, and Brook are all rushing over here.
"Everyone's here!"
Luffy grinned, raised his fists, and shouted, "Then let's set sail!"
"Seriously... what's going on?"
Just then, a voice rang out from the side.
Everyone looked over and saw a little girl with her hands in the pockets of her overalls and a lollipop in her mouth walking over from the broken wall.
She glanced at the Straw Hat crew, then looked at the werewolf lying on the ground, shifted the direction of her lollipop, walked over to Crowe, and kicked him.
"Hey, Chloe, are you alright?"
After being kicked, Kro's body transformed into human form, and his unfocused eyes gradually regained some willpower.
“Lida…I’m sorry, I failed,” he said through gritted teeth.
"Ah...that doesn't matter. The problem now is that this place is a complete mess, both in Chambord and at our base."
Lida looked around at the ruins and said, "Kuro will be angry."
