Bakin's devil fruit ability was very limited, but Zephyr also got a lot of information from the performance of Bakin and Weevil.
"This old woman's devil fruit ability needs to be watched carefully."
"So far, Bajin hasn't shown any outstanding dominance, but he's very fast."
"It's faster than mine."
"The marines she bit had no resistance and fell down and died immediately. The wounds were not deep, and their condition at the time of death was very strange. It was most likely poisoning."
"That man was clearly quite affected after I hit him in the head, but after being bitten by Bajin, his aura immediately stabilized and even improved slightly compared to before."
"Bajin's ability should have a certain degree of healing power, but the extent of this is currently unknown."
"The first priority is to get rid of Bajin."
Zefa protected the surviving crew members behind him. When he was confronting Bakin and his mother, his mind was not idle. He was quickly analyzing the current situation.
The villains who rushed onto the warship and attacked their navy would certainly not be able to retreat easily. At this time, none of the navy on the deck had any hope of luck.
There is one and only one way to repel the enemy.
This had already become a life-and-death battle. The naval cadets, who had no way of retreat, quickly calmed down and became resolute. Their facial expressions also became firm, and the fear in their hearts was suppressed.
Of the mother and son, Bakin's frontal combat capability is obviously stronger than Weevil's. They have strong bodies and top-level domineering power. Although their fighting skills are a bit crude, they can still cause great trouble to Zephyr with their strength.
Although Bakin has not shown much in terms of physical skills, she has certain auxiliary abilities. Judging from the abilities she has demonstrated at this stage, she should not be underestimated and must be given priority.
As we all know, kill the auxiliary first in battle.
Zefa would not be unaware of such a simple truth.
"Perhaps it is precisely because of my limited fighting ability that I have always stayed on my son's back."
Zefa made up his mind. He glanced at Bakin, who was riding on Weibull's head, and spread his hands to the nearest student behind him. He said in a deep voice, "Knife!"
As soon as the words fell, the students tacitly put the long sword in their hands into Zefa's hands.
Although Zephyr is used to solving problems with his fists, it doesn't mean that he can't use conventional weapons such as long swords. In order to better teach Tsugikuni Yuichi, Zephyr also worked hard in this area. After all, if you want to teach a genius of Yuichi's level, you really can't do it without some skills.
But in fact, although Zefa has practiced sword skills for a period of time, he is still "one force defeats ten skills" when practicing with Yuanyi. There is no way. After honing his sword skills, he is still no match for his disciple. Zefa can only maintain his dignity by such shameless means.
But that wonderful time as master and apprentice was also very short. Tsugikuni Yoriichi's growth rate was too fast, and he soon spread his wings and flew away from Zephyr's wings.
However, Zefa's sword skills have also been greatly improved.
The student who handed the long sword to Zefa looked at Zefa's arm with some concern.
At this moment, there was a deep cut on Zefa's right forearm, and blood was constantly flowing out of the wound. This was the wound that Zefa had been cut in when he had previously received Weeble's slash with his bare hands.
Facing an enemy of Weeble's level, Zefa did not dare to be careless.
"The rest of you, form a circle to protect yourselves. Stay as far away from the battlefield as possible and be wary of enemy sneak attacks."
Zefa tightly grasped the long knife handed to him by the student and gave instructions in a deep voice.
He also had some understanding of the fighting style of Ba Jin and his son, and knew that this opponent was not easy to deal with.
As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for the students to respond, Weeble, who had fully recovered in the distance, could no longer hold back and launched the first attack.
Weevil's target was unusually clear and definite, and he was directly targeting Zefa.
Zefa held the knife in one hand, swung his stance, and faced the aggressive Weevil without any fear, and rushed forward directly.
“Chuckle!”
Just when Weevil and Zephyr were about to fight again, Bakin, who was riding on Weevil's back, suddenly let out a low laugh, jumped off Weevil's back, flew over Zephyr's head, and rushed towards the trainee soldiers behind Zephyr.
For pirates, a fair fight? What the hell is that?
Fighting is just a means to achieve the goal, and the goal of Bakin and his mother is to kill all the navy on this ship to make Weevil famous!
After realizing Bajin's plan, Zefa's face changed slightly, but he suppressed the murderous intent in his heart and had no intention of turning back to rescue the students. He only hoped that the students could be stronger at this time and hold on for a while longer, waiting for him to find an opportunity to kill Bajin.
"clang!!!!"
Zefa and Weevil met each other. Facing Weevil's slash, Zefa did not resist. He swung his sword and hit the blade of the naginata, changing the opponent's sword path. At the same time, he jumped forward and slashed back at Weevil's chest with the long sword in his hand.
"ah--"
A shrill scream suddenly rang out from the army behind Zefa.
In order to distract Zefa, the effect of the fruit used by Bakin this time seemed to be slightly different. The soldier who was bitten by her did not die peacefully in that intoxicated look, but instead let out a painful scream. The hideous and painful expression and scream made all the navy people tremble in their hearts.
Even Zephyr, who was attacking Weevil, was distracted by the scream, his breathing stagnated and became incoherent.
This subtle change also allowed Weevil to seize Zephyr's weakness. Although he didn't have time to withdraw the naginata in his hand, Weevil clenched his left fist and smashed it hard on Zephyr's body, knocking the distracted Zephyr away.
“Bang!!!”
A muffled sound was heard on the deck, and Zefa's figure penetrated the deck and fell into the dark cabin.
Having succeeded in his attack, Weeble showed a smug look on his face. He was about to rush forward to help his mother chop those sailors, but a slight sound came from the deck under his feet.
A long knife suddenly pierced through the thick deck and went straight through Weeble's foot.
“Ahhhhh!!!”
Severe pain came from the soles of his feet, and a scream emanated from the fierce-looking Weevil's mouth. The sound was so loud that it was even louder and more shrill than those sailors who were attacked and fell to the ground by Bakin.
In just a few breaths, seven more navy soldiers were killed by Bajin. Although these naval cadets followed Zefa's orders to form a formation to resist, they had no way to resist the enemy for a moment.
Bajin, who was about to attack others, also heard his son's screams. His eyes flashed, and he had no intention of retreating. Instead, he accelerated the pace of slaughtering the navy.
"laugh--"
The shining blade was pulled out from Weeble's feet. Weeble, who was in pain, became even more violent. He didn't care about the injury on his feet at all. He held the knife in both hands and slashed directly at the deck below.
The slash split the deck, but where was the attacker?!
Bakin, who had killed ten navy men in a row, was about to move on to the next enemy, but the deck under his feet suddenly broke open, and a bloody long sword stabbed out directly from below. Zefa, who was knocked away by Weevil, appeared in the army formation and stabbed Bakin.
Fortunately, Bakin's observation Haki was sharp, and he stopped quickly. Seeing Zefa appear in front of him and swinging his sword at him, Bakin didn't stop at all. He flew backward directly, escaped from the army formation, and jumped back to the top of Weeble's head.
Zefa, who failed in the attack, had some blood on the corner of his mouth. He said to himself what a pity, and his eyes swept over the bodies of the surrounding students. He felt very sad, and the anger and murderous intent in his heart grew stronger and stronger.
Bakin returned to Weevil and glanced down at Weevil's foot injury. She felt relieved and looked at Zefa, whose face was as gloomy as water, from a distance, and chuckled softly.
It is true that Zephyr is a powerful navy officer, although during battle he forces himself to become cold-blooded and does not want other things to affect his judgment.
But people like Zefa are warm and soft-hearted, and he cannot sit idly by and watch his students die in vain.
If such a person is in the same camp, he will naturally make people feel at ease and at ease.
However, such a character is actually very easy to be targeted. Being too kind on this ocean is not a good thing, especially for people like the navy who need to fight on the sea all year round.
Just as Zefa was thinking about how to deal with Bakin and her son, a slight sound suddenly came from the direction of the cabin.
The deformed cabin door suddenly opened a crack. Behind the door, Ace and Sabo slowly stuck their heads out and looked toward the deck.
“.”
Bakin and Weible were very sensitive to their surroundings at this moment, and the subtle sound of the door opening was extremely clear to their ears.
They all turned their heads to look and were surprised to see that there were two half-grown kids on Zefa's boat.
Then a bright smile appeared on Bajin's face, and all the wrinkles gathered together.
"The navy is actually taking children with them when they go out to sea?!"
"You really don't know how to live or die, Zefa. Are you underestimating the power of this ocean?!"
Bakin's eyes lit up with excitement as he spoke, and he leaped straight at Ace and Sabo. Although Weevil was dazed, he had been with his mother for so long that they naturally had a tacit understanding.
The huge body rushed directly towards the navy, not wanting to give Zefa any time to rescue them.
"Bastards, these two bastards!!!"
At this time, Zefa was not only angry, the hairs on his body stood up, and he was actually a little frightened in his heart. His mind inexplicably recalled his deceased wife and children.
With a loud shout, Zefa flashed out from the army formation and rushed towards the attacking Weevil.
On one side were hundreds of students, and on the other were the two children, Ace and Sabo, who were entrusted to him.
Zefa was unable to make a choice in his heart. His actions were completely subconscious. He fought against Weevil because the students were closer to him.
"Little devil, come to me!!!"
“Chuckle!”
Bakin's face was full of excitement. She already knew what means to use to control Zefa. These two children should be quite valuable bargaining chips, otherwise Zefa would not have shown such an expression.
"Fire Fist!"
Just when Bakin rushed to Ace and Sabo and wanted to catch the two guys, a flash of lightning suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, and Sabo disappeared from her sight.
Ace, who stayed where he was, had no intention of dodging, and there was not even any fear on his face. He simply pushed open the cabin door with one hand and punched the attacking Bakin.
A crisp low roar sounded on the deck, and a pillar of fire suddenly shot out from the hatch and shot towards Bakin in mid-air.
“!!!”
Raging flames rushed towards him. Ba Jin had never expected that the two little ghosts who had peeked out of the cabin had such ability. He hurriedly swung his body in the air, trying to shift from his original position.
The pillar of fire shot past Bakin's arm almost directly. The scorching flames burned through her leopard-print short cape and left burns on her skin.
Although he used Armament Haki to resist in time, the power of the Flame-Flame Fruit still took effect.
A tingling sensation came from his arm, and Ba Jin fell to the ground quickly, with a ferocious look on his old face.
"Small"
Zi——
Just as Bakin was about to attack Ace again, a soft sound suddenly emanated from behind her. Light blue lightning rapidly gathered behind Bakin, and Sabo flashed out, extending his index finger and thumb, and an arc of electricity flashed from his fingertips.
"One hundred thousand volts!"
As a soft murmur came out of Sabo's mouth, the arc of lightning at his fingertips suddenly expanded and hit Bakin in an instant.
Well. Although this guy is not Pikachu, his attack method is somewhat similar to that of the yellow-skinned raccoon.
"boom!!!"
In broad daylight, dazzling lightning flashed above the deck.
Bakin was hit hard by Sabo's attack, and lightning penetrated his whole body. Bakin's golden hair with a bob haircut also stood up.
Zephyr, who was fighting with Weevil, also noticed the battlefield not far away. Seeing that Ace and Sabo were fine for the time being, he simply made up his mind and began to concentrate on dealing with Weevil.
When Ace and Sabo appeared, Zefa panicked. He seemed to have forgotten that these two kids were not ordinary kids.
On the entire ship, perhaps only these two little guys can really help resist the enemy.
"ah!!!!"
“Two little devils!!!”
The lightning dissipated, and Sabo's attack did not kill Bakin in one blow. Bakin, who was protected by the armed color domineering, could not be defeated by an attack of this level.
Although he failed to kill Bakin, Sabo's attack caused her severe pain all over her body, and the numbness in her nerves also affected Bakin's movements to a certain extent.
With a sharp scream, Bajin was no longer as calm as before.
He suddenly turned his body, and with his right hand in the shape of a claw, he grabbed Sabo who was attacking him from behind.
It was fast, but not fast enough for Saab!
"Hey!"
Sabo let out a light laugh, and his figure suddenly turned into a blue light. After transforming into an element, he disappeared from the spot in an instant.
"What?!" Bajin subconsciously widened her eyes, as if she couldn't believe her eyes. She hadn't noticed it before, but this time she saw clearly that the little ghost attacking her was a natural type!
"Great Flame Ring·Flame Emperor!!"
In the moment when Bakin was distracted, Ace had already stepped onto the deck, his body covered in flames.
Sabo is not the only one who has the nature element, Ace is one too.
Ba Jin quickly turned around, and the flames in the sky were reflected in her pupils. There was no way to escape, and she was directly enveloped by the sea of fire.
