Chapter 247 Locking in on Luffy
Chapter 247 Locking in on Luffy
Who can stop us then?
Even the Admirals and the Four Emperors would have to kneel down, after all, who can withstand Earth's magnetic field?
Of course, all of this flashed through Aini's mind. Though he spoke slowly, he acted swiftly, already having already made his move.
"shave!"
Enni vanished from the spot and reappeared right in front of Eustace Kid.
"not good!"
Eustace Kidd was terrified, but by then, he had exhausted his strength. It would be difficult to use his massive mechanical arm to block or defend against it.
Just like how Shanks defeated him in one move in the original work.
In the original work, after Kidd teamed up with Luffy to defeat Big Mom and Kaido, he once again embarked on the path of challenging Shanks, but we also know the ending.
Although Kid has awakened his Devil Fruit powers and possesses enough strength to be no match for ordinary pirates, he can only challenge the Four Emperors. After his defeat to the Red-Haired Pirates, Kid, whose strength and bounty have increased significantly, has once again sought out Shanks.
Although Kidd was quite strong, he was still instantly killed by Shanks, one of the Four Emperors, with a single, miraculous dodge.
When we saw that Shanks actually possessed such strength, we finally understood how he managed to maintain his position as one of the Four Emperors.
But here we want to talk about why Shanks was able to defeat Kid so easily, even in a single move.
It's not just because Shanks has extraordinary strength.
There are also shortcomings in Kidd himself.
We all know that Kid was charging up his electromagnetic cannon, preparing to deliver a devastating blow to Shanks's pirate ship, but Shanks saw what would happen ten seconds later using his Observation Haki.
After seeing the future, Shanks realized that Kid had acquired a power that he needed to take seriously. So, at this critical moment, Shanks jumped in front of Kid and used a divine evasion technique to instantly kill Kid.
At that time, Kid was preparing to launch an attack, not a defensive stance. Shanks jumped in front of Kid before Kid could even react and was directly attacked by Shanks. Kid was defeated without even making the slightest defensive move.
If Shanks and Kid had engaged in a fierce battle from the very beginning, Kid would have been on guard and would never have rashly used a move with a long prelude and many flaws.
After all, even Shanks, one of the Four Emperors, is incredibly powerful, but it is absolutely impossible for him to instantly kill Kid, who is fully armed and on guard.
However, now, Kidd's glaring weakness has been exposed to Enni without any attempt to conceal it.
In the original story, Shanks taught him a lesson, and now he wouldn't mind giving him the same lesson.
He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a cold smile, and then extended his right hand without hesitation.
Before Kidd's face could recover from the fear, Enni struck with lightning speed, grabbing Kidd's head with pinpoint accuracy and slamming it hard against the ground!
"collapse……"
With a deafening, muffled thud, Kidd's head slammed into the ground like a cannonball under the force of this terrifying blow.
The ground, which was originally paved with incredibly hard bluestone, was now as fragile and easily broken as tofu.
In an instant, spiderweb-like cracks spread rapidly from Kidd's head, expanding and extending, intertwining and forming deep, bottomless ravines.
As time went on, these cracks grew wider and deeper until the entire ground collapsed and shattered, turning into countless tiny fragments of stone that flew everywhere. The scene was so shocking that it left people speechless!
As everything finally returned to calm, Enina slowly released her grip on Kid's face. At that moment, Kid's chilling appearance was laid bare before everyone's eyes.
His mouth was wide open, as if he wanted to let out a final roar but was powerless to do so. A trickle of blood flowed down the corner of his mouth, leaving a crimson stain on his face. His facial muscles were contorted and deformed from extreme pain, and his once bright and piercing eyes were now empty and lifeless, devoid of their former luster and vitality.
Upon closer inspection, people were astonished to discover that Kidd's head had an eerily shriveled appearance.
It turned out that he had suffered a fatal blow to the back of his head, which was completely caved in. His red and white brain matter and blood were mixed together, spreading on the ground like a horrifying painting.
It is obvious that Kidd has already died, and his death was so gruesome that it is unbearable to look at.
"hiss……"
The scene was so horrifying that even the usually calm and collected Trafalgar Law and Urouge, as well as the outgoing Luffy and Sanji, and even Basil Hawkins, who had already joined Enni's ranks, couldn't help but gasp after witnessing Kid's gruesome death.
Their eyes widened, their faces filled with disbelief and shock, and for a moment no one could utter a single word.
"Gurgle..."
For a long time, everyone was stunned and unable to recover. After they did, they couldn't help but swallow hard. Some even instinctively took a few steps back, as if only in this way could they calm themselves down.
When they looked at Aini again, their eyes had completely changed.
Who is Eustace Kidd?
That's the person with the highest bounty among their supernovas. Although bounties don't fully represent strength, they are still an important criterion for judging strength.
Even if Eustass Kid's strength isn't consistently ranked first among the Supernovas like it is with bounties, he'd still be in the top five. Perhaps even the top three...
And that's the kind of strength.
Yet, he couldn't even last a single move against this navy officer. Just how terrifying is this navy officer's strength?
If the navy were to attack them, could they escape?
Or will he end up like Eustace Kidd?
At this moment, anyone with a modicum of sense was already considering retreating. Trafalgar Law and Urquid exchanged a glance, then hastily retreated.
For example, Sanji grabbed Luffy and tried to run away.
Enni's eyes narrowed involuntarily. Luffy's ability, although it currently resembles the Paramecia-type Gum-Gum Fruit, is actually the Zoan-type Mythical Zoan-type Nika Fruit.
This fruit is not to be missed.
To do it or not?
Let's do it! What's he afraid of?
He wasn't afraid of either Dragon or Garp. Besides, he was a Marine, and Luffy was a pirate; wasn't killing him perfectly justified?
