In response to the command from the flying squirrel, the elite naval personnel imbued their weapons with Haki and began to gradually approach Barrett.
They brought over seven elite vice admirals, plus some ordinary vice admirals, a total of twenty vice admirals, and their troops were all colonels or above, totaling two thousand marines, all for one Barrett.
However, this is to be expected.
They should have the combat power to deal with a Yonko-level individual.
"Let's warm up first!"
Barrett glanced at Kuro, who was chewing on a cigar, a smirk playing on his lips, and then swiftly dodged away.
"shooting!"
At that moment, an order from a vice admiral was given, and some of the navy raised their guns and fired powerful bullets, but it was too late.
That imposing, muscular, inverted triangle figure appeared high in the sky, darting diagonally across like an eagle skimming the ground.
boom!!
His body landed, generating a shockwave that shoved away the surrounding navy.
He then lunged forward and threw a punch that struck the navy officer in front of him squarely in the abdomen, causing him to gag and stoop.
when!
The navy soldiers behind reacted, gripped their blades and stabbed at Barrett, piercing his clothes with a sharp crack.
"Hey!"
Barrett spun around and slammed his fist, which was almost half the size of the marine's body, directly into him, sending the marine flying like a rag doll.
Thump!
He stomped his foot heavily on the ground, his body shooting forward like a cannonball, and threw a punch that sent the navy soldiers in front of him flying everywhere.
In the New World, even a slightly better naval captain could be a base commander of a branch, having chased countless pirates and fought countless battles, but in front of Barrett, he was practically invincible.
The strongest people in this world... all have this kind of style!
Fortunately, these were all naval elites, only injured, not so easy to kill. That's why Kuro only allowed them to call themselves elites.
You have to work on this kind of person...
"Wild Slash!!"
Doberman stood in front of Barrett, who was unleashing his full power, and with a flash of his blade, he unleashed countless chaotic yet focused slashes, cleaving down with a single strike.
*Smack!*
Barrett reached out and gripped the blade with his right hand, bracing against the slashes. The force of the slashes shredded his glove, revealing his massive, imposing hand.
"I remember you..."
Barrett grinned maliciously at him: "You were one of the men who hunted me back then!"
call!
Bang!!
He simply raised his hand, gripped the blade, lifted Doberman up, and slammed him heavily to the ground.
"Don't be so arrogant!"
Onigumo charged forward, his eight swords wreathed in a spiraling aura of power, slashing in unison like a chaotic flurry of shadows.
Barrett stepped back, crossed his arms, and let the eight afterimages of the blades slash at him.
Ta-da!
The gloves and clothes tore apart from the forearms and fists, revealing forearm muscles as strong as steel and fists larger than the average person's size.
Barrett glanced at Onigumo through the gap between his crossed arms, a smile of excitement on his face.
Bang!!
He launched a flying kick, like a sharp sword finding an opening and striking the Onigumo's abdomen, sending him flying backward.
call!
Immediately afterwards, he leaned forward, his head almost touching the ground, and a cold light flashed above him. The flying squirrel had already reached behind him and swiftly slashed open with an iaido attack.
He himself was also a master of Iaijutsu (drawing sword technique).
but...
Bang!
Like a scorpion's hook, Barrett hooked his leg back and kicked the flying squirrel in the chin with his heel, sending him flying high into the air.
Then he opened his eyes, his legs twisted rapidly, kicking up a cloud of dust on the ground. As he twisted, his body also spun and straightened, and with his fist, he punched the leaping, slashing mountain in front of him.
Bang!
The immense force pressed down on Huoshaoshan's blade, causing the back of the blade to strike Huoshaoshan's face.
Barrett punched again, knocking Fire Mountain back.
Then he ducked his head, and saw that Dalmesia's attack had reached the spot where his head had been. He straightened his fist and pulled it outward, his elbow striking Dalmesia's chest heavily. At the same time, he opened his mouth, his teeth covered with a domineering aura, and bit down hard on the other side.
when!
Sterles then launched a thrust, but Barrett held the blade firmly in his jaws.
He grinned maliciously at Sterles, then bit down hard on the blade and pulled it to the other side, forcibly pulling Sterles' body towards him. At the same time, he covered his head with an aura of dominance and slammed it into Sterles.
Bang bang!!
Two muffled thuds sent Steires and Dalmecia flying to the left and right respectively.
Tap tap tap!
Behind him, Storoberry crossed his twin swords in a surprise attack, flashing past like a phantom.
Barrett seemed to have anticipated this, turning around and clenching his fist, his right fist deflecting the crisscrossing double blades.
Bang!
A wave of energy emanated from it.
Barrett clenched his other fist, brought it to his waist, and threw a powerful punch.
Stroberry was startled. He raised his twin blades, which had been slashing at Barrett's fist, and the crossed blades became a cross defense, blocking Barrett's fist. However, he was still forced back by Barrett's immense strength.
"roar!!"
After defeating Storobelli, Barrett raised his fists high and slammed them down on the numerous marines in front of him. His fists struck the ground, shattering the earth in a fan-shaped pattern. The impact sent the marines in that fan-shaped area flying and kicked up a lot of dust.
Kuro, who had been hesitant to make a move, gripped Shusui tightly, his eyes narrowing slightly.
The lieutenant generals were at most a bit disheveled, but not seriously injured. However, Barrett was completely unharmed, except for a few tears in his clothes.
This stamina... even after activating his abilities and engaging in combat of this level, he hasn't shown any signs of depletion.
This guy's stamina seems a bit excessive...
When Barrett was young, he was worn down by Sengoku, Garp, and even Vice Admirals including Sakazuki until he was exhausted. After so many years of training in prison, his power has become evident, and he has become incredibly strong.
The worst thing is that the criminals in the sixth level of prison are released. Not to mention the old ones who didn't repent in prison, their strength may even decrease after they get out, which is still better.
What's truly frightening is that some people use prison as a training ground to hone their skills. Once they've quietly cultivated themselves in that hellish environment for twenty or thirty years, they emerge as towering figures.
Especially someone like Barrett, who is naturally full of physical strength, would be incredibly powerful in prison, where he couldn't use his abilities and could only train in physical skills.
His abilities should have awakened within the last two years, which means that his talent is already top-notch.
When used properly, it combines powerful aura with masterful technique and immense strength...
Lida, who was some distance away from Kuro, also noticed this and subconsciously looked at Kuro.
A physical combat version of Kuro...?
