To instantly unleash three strikes is a different concept from to execute one strike as three separate strikes.
The former can be described as fast, even if it is the so-called "simultaneous" three-slash attack, it is still within the concept of speed.
But Kuro's most genuine sword, at the very moment he drew it, split into three.
"You you you you you!"
Lida stared wide-eyed at Kuro, her voice trembling.
"As expected, you're a complete freak; you can even do something like this!"
"What's the big deal?"
Kuro didn't think the [Swallow Return] was anything special. "It's just three swords. Look at Roronoa Zoro, he's a three-sword style, he can do things like slicing a swallow with his sword. There's also the eight-sword style, what's so special about it?"
“That’s not how it is at all, do you think I’m stupid!” Lida glared at Kuro.
If others can't understand it, surely she can!
This was a divine strike!
How could something as devastating as the Bullet Swallow compare to the stunning and terrifying power of this strike!
Kuro couldn't understand it. In his eyes, Kuro's slash had simply turned into three slashes, which was just a bit magical.
If he were to face a strike like that, the worst that could happen is death.
What's so great about it...
But for Lida, who had seen most of the techniques, even though she was not proficient in physical combat or swordsmanship, she could still understand the subtlety of this strike.
That's not just about splitting the blade into three; it also has the effect of blocking the enemy's retreat. Once you engage the enemy, no one can dodge that strike.
This falls under the category of 'ability'.
Kuro actually reached the level of 'ability' just through his swordsmanship!
To call someone like this a perverted Rita would be an understatement.
"Well, that kind of thing doesn't matter."
Kuro scratched his head, looking down at the Bullet Swallow's corpse. As Buck died, the Bullet Swallow gradually softened and transformed into Buck's appearance, now lifeless.
But just in case...
With a swift stroke, Kuro severed Buck's head. With a few more swift strokes, he shredded Buck's body into pieces. Then, he unleashed a powerful blade aura that reduced Buck's flesh to ashes.
“What are you doing?” Lida asked.
"Just in case, it's best to finish them off. After all, Paramecia-types always have strange abilities," Kuro said.
Is this what you call finishing off someone?
Lida watched the ashes fall from the sky, a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth, and inexplicably felt a pang of sadness for this pirate with a bounty of over 300 million.
A red dot appeared in Kuro's eyes. He activated his Observation Haki, which enveloped the entire island. After confirming that Buck's presence was gone, he said, "Alright, let's go back."
Lida was somewhat speechless. Was it really necessary to go to such lengths? She needed to use her Observation Haki to confirm.
They've all turned to ashes, how can they possibly be brought back to life?
If that pirate were alive, he would probably be moved to tears if he knew that Kuro treated him with such care.
The group walked towards the camp, where the land returned to calm, with only the moonlight still shining.
The crescent moon in the sky is the only observer.
The moon completes its cycle in the sky until it sinks below the horizon of the ocean, while on the other side the sun rises, bringing dawn.
Kuro boarded the ship again and headed to Branch 153.
Cass is a fake; he must find the real Cass.
Otherwise, one cannot live a leisurely life in the East China Sea.
As the sun rose and set, and night fell again, the place where the ashes had fallen on the rocky island suddenly began to churn. A mass of soft mud suddenly emerged from the earth, gradually merging together and transforming into the shape of Buck.
"Ha ha..."
Buck knelt on the ground, panting heavily.
He was covered in blood and had knife wounds all over his body.
"I almost, I almost died..."
The 'Disguise Fruit' is very powerful. Besides being able to transform into objects from memories, it has another trump card: 'disguise' itself.
That wasn't a simple 'disguise'. When he transformed into himself, he could separate that body from his own, while the original body would disappear and only reappear in the same spot a day later.
'Illusion'—this is the ultimate essence of the 'Disguise Fruit'.
This is his last trump card, and he can only use it once.
After decades of reaping the fruits of our labor, today is the first and last time they will be revealed.
After being struck by Kuro's swordsmanship, which he couldn't even comprehend, Buck released his 'false body'.
He originally planned to use this trick to get the marines to take his fake body back, but he didn't expect Kuro to actually kill him. Doesn't he need a pirate with a bounty of over 300 million to get promoted?!
It's one thing to kill someone, but why not just slash once? Why slash so many times and then unleash a final slash?
Although his body was concealed, he was still 'existent'. When he was struck by a slash, he was naturally injured. Combined with the damage he had suffered when he transformed into Bullet Swallow earlier, he almost died.
"That damned bastard!"
Buck rolled over and lay flat on the ground, panting. "I'll remember you, Lucilfer Kuro!"
In any case, he survived in the end.
If that Kuro dares to treat him like this, then I'll make sure he can't stay in the Navy!
If you were to do something using his appearance, he would probably be very upset. If the World Government were to blame you for it, that would be perfect!
After resting for a while, Buck felt he could move again. He turned around and transformed into a bird, flying away into the distance.
...
After a day and a night, Kuro returned to Branch 153.
