Chapter 142 Transparent Fruit? Not transparent!
"A devil fruit user?"
Hearing such words suddenly from Golden Lion's mouth, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi was somewhat confused. He didn't know what he had done to make Golden Lion have the illusion that he was a devil fruit user.
However, Yoshikazu Tsugakuni didn't think much about it, because just as his attack was blocked by the Golden Lion Shiki, he suddenly found that someone was rushing towards him quickly.
There was an inexplicable distortion in the air, and a short sword suddenly stretched out from the void beside Jiguo Yuanyi and stabbed directly at Jiguo Yuanyi's lower abdomen.
"Hey! Are you here?"
Golden Lion Shiki held his two swords against the long sword in Tsugakuin Yoshiichi's hand. When he noticed the sudden attack towards Tsugakuin Yoshiichi, a bright smile appeared on his face.
"Huh?!" The dagger fell quickly. Ji Guoyuan glanced sideways and suddenly stepped on the air with both feet.
Use the Moon Step.
Yuichiro Tsuchiya jumped directly into the air and avoided the attack in an instant. After creating some distance, Yuichiro Tsuchiya turned his hand and slashed directly at the "void".
Buzz——
The domineering aura of the Overlord surged out, and the black blade light slashed directly towards the void. At this moment, the void actually let out a shrill scream, and a thin figure directly emerged from the space and fell rapidly to the ground.
"What?!"
When the Golden Lion Shiki saw this scene, his heart tightened and he couldn't help but let out a low cry.
The one who attacked Yoriichi Tsugakuni was the invisible man who had eaten the superhuman transparent fruit, the Mist Assassin Horace Dean, who had a bounty of 420 million berries.
When Horace Dean activates the ability of the Transparent Fruit, he and all objects he touches become transparent, and even light can pass through them.
It is impossible for ordinary people to detect the whereabouts of Horace Dean, and even with the observation Haki, it is difficult to capture him.
Although Horace Dean's bounty was less than 500 million, his hands were stained with the blood of a super pirate with a bounty of 1.1 billion. In order to recruit him, Golden Lion promised him the position of captain of the First Squadron of the Sky Pirates.
But what Golden Lion didn't expect was that while Tsugakuin Yoshiichi was concentrating on attacking him, he was actually able to discover Horace Dean's sneak attack. This had never happened before.
Not to mention someone like Tsugikuni Yoshiichi who was fighting with others, even if he was not distracted and concentrated on sensing the whereabouts of Horace Dean, it would be difficult for him to detect the other party's attack.
However, the reality is that not only was Horace Dean's attack noticed by Yoshiichi Tsugakuin, but the other party's hasty counterattack even successfully hit Horace Dean.
Judging from the amount of bleeding just now, even if Horace Dean didn't die, he would probably lose his combat effectiveness at this moment.
The Golden Lion's face was full of surprise, but Yoriichi Tsugikuni, who killed Horace Dean, was a little confused as to why the Golden Lion Shiki would show such emotions.
In fact, Horace Dean, who has become transparent in the eyes of Golden Lion and others, is no different from others in the eyes of Tsugumi Yoshiichi.
From his perspective of a transparent world, Horace Dean's "sneak attack" just now was actually a fair and open attack, and Ji Guoyuan saw every move of the opponent.
From Yoriichi's perspective, he didn't even realize that Horace Dean had already used the ability of the Transparent Fruit.
Ji Guoyuan used his Observation Haki to sweep over Horace Dean who had fallen to the ground, and then turned his attention back to the Golden Lion Shiki.
Horace Dean, who had attacked him, was breathing very weakly at this moment. If he didn't get timely treatment, he would be dead.
Yunyi had no time to finish off the enemy at the moment, and the person he should be most wary of now was the Golden Lion Shiki himself.
"This kid is even more domineering than before!"
Shiki, the Golden Lion, felt a chill in his heart when he saw Tsugikoku Yoshiichi's gaze. He was a great pirate who had roamed the seas for decades, but now, facing Tsugikoku Yoshiichi, Shiki had the thought of retreating.
After the naval battle with Roger's At-Wall, Golden Lion suffered a crushing defeat and had his forearm severed by Yoriichi Tsugikuni. These setbacks somewhat dampened the pirate's resolve.
The golden lion Shiki, who couldn't sleep peacefully because of the pain in his arm, had some subtle changes in his personality.
"Shiki the Golden Lion actually backed down?!"
When one reaches the level of Yuichiro Tsugakuten, he can often perceive the opponent's psychological changes at the first moment. The moment the Golden Lion had the thought of retreating, Yuichiro Tsugakuten felt it.
This discovery made Ji Guoyuan feel murderous.
Opportunity! This is a chance to kill Shiki the Golden Lion!
Under the influence of gravity, Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's body began to fall. Tsugakuni Yoshiichi stared at the golden lion Shiki closely, pointed his left foot in the air, and rushed towards Shiki quickly.
The sound of breaking air exploded in the ears of the Golden Lion Shiki. Although Shiki only saw a vague figure passing by in front of him, the two long swords in his hands once again blocked in front of him.
"clang!!"
Sure enough, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi had already reached Shiki and swung his sword towards Shiki's chest. After the attack was blocked, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi stomped on the ground again, flipped forward, and instantly reached Shiki's head, swinging his sword towards Shiki's forehead.
Ji Guoyuan's moves were connected very smoothly and at a very fast speed.
Shiki the Golden Lion's Observation Haki couldn't detect Yoriichi's presence at all, and he had no way of predicting Yoriichi's movements. All he could do was rely on his hearing and eyesight to vaguely judge the direction from which Yoriichi Tsugikoku might attack.
Realizing the attack from above, Shiki quickly turned his head, and the long knife slashed across his left shoulder and neck, leaving a wound of six or seven centimeters.
Before Shiqi could even catch his breath, the long knife that had left a wound on his shoulder suddenly changed direction and headed straight for his neck.
Yoshiichi Tsugikuni, who was attacking Shiki on top of his head just a moment ago, has now come behind Shiki, and his long sword has changed from a vertical slash to a horizontal slash.
"Little devil!!"
When danger came, Shiki roared angrily, and when he lowered his head, the Golden Lion directly activated his ability. The hull of the pirate ship, which had just been cut by Tsugakuin Yoshiichi, was directly combined into a large ball with a diameter of hundreds of meters by an unknown force.
As Shiki avoided Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's slash, the big ball floating in the air came from bottom to top and smashed directly towards Tsugakuni Yoshiichi.
Seeing the sudden attack, Ji Guoyuan inserted a long sword across his chest and swung it directly.
However, at this moment, the big ball created by Shiki's ability suddenly shattered, and Yunyi's slash directly passed through countless debris and fell directly to the ground, cutting a bottomless crack.
At the same time, the broken wooden boards, iron blocks, and soil instantly surrounded Tsugikuni Yoriichi.
Then they gathered towards Yuanyi.
“Hoohoohoo!!!!”
The wreckage roared towards Yoshikazu Tsugakuni, as if it was preparing to bury Yoshikazu alive.
If Tsugikuni Yoshiichi hadn't known clearly that his opponent was Shiki the Golden Lion, he would have thought that it was some unscrupulous killer who launched the Chibaku Tensei.
The wreckage of the pirate ship gathered together and directly submerged the figure of Yoriichi Tsugikuni.
At this moment, only the figure of the golden lion Shiki remained in the sky, and the "ball" with a diameter of 100 meters floating in front of him.
There was no sign of Tsugikuni Yoriichi at all.
"Hahaha"
“Hahahahahahaha!!!”
The Golden Lion laughed wildly at the "giant ball" in front of him, and his laughter echoed on the west coast of Migo Town. The pirates saw that Tsugikuni Yoriichi seemed to be controlled by the Golden Lion Shiki, and they all cheered.
The sound of waves crashing against the cliff was drowned out by the laughter of Shiki and the pirates.
