Chapter 399: Intimidating the Blackbeard Pirates
call!
"Hiss! What's that? Why does that black smoke make me feel so uncomfortable?"
"Is that a natural phenomenon?"
The sea wind whistled past their ears, and before their eyes lay a breathtaking sight. The crew members, doing odd jobs, stared in astonishment at what they saw.
"Captain! What's that black smoke?"
At this moment, Nicole Robin, standing next to Mu Chong, frowned and asked softly.
Her voice drew the attention of the others, who all turned to look at Mu Chong at the bow, awaiting their captain's answer.
"Yes! That's why we've come here. That black smoke is produced by a Devil Fruit ability. The person we're looking for is currently engaged in battle on the island ahead!"
Mu Chong's expression remained indifferent as usual. Upon hearing Robin's question, he calmly explained...
"What?! That was actually done by human hands?"
"Phew! A Devil Fruit ability?"
Upon hearing Mu Chong's explanation, several people gasped in shock, while the white cat Mu Mu's eyes lit up, and a faint fighting spirit began to emanate from it.
call!
Just as everyone was talking, the high-speed Liberty was approaching Banaro Island, and the island's scenery became even clearer in their eyes.
Thick black smoke enveloped most of the island, its terrifying aura creating a powerful suction that gave one the illusion of being trapped within it.
Rumble!
The next second, as the Liberty ship came to a stop on the coast of Banaro Island, a tremendous roar suddenly erupted from the island. Then, everyone saw countless houses being swallowed by black smoke; in just moments, the once orderly town had completely vanished.
"This...this is way too outrageous?!"
"The town...it has vanished? What terrifying power is this?"
This scene once again astonished the crew members who were doing odd jobs, but although they muttered to themselves, their expressions did not show much fear.
"Hehehe! You guys take good care of the Freedom. Also, Moriarty and Laura, you two stay here too. Remember to make sure the Freedom is safe!"
Mu Chong merely smiled at the surprise of the people behind him, then turned and said a few words to them before flying away from the deck with the white cat Mumu and Nico Robin.
"Meow! Bro! Are we going to go straight over and join this battle?"
During the flight, the white cat Mumu turned to Mu Chong excitedly and asked, his tone revealing an intense desire to fight.
Nicole Robin, held in Mu Chong's arms, also looked at him with a questioning gaze, but her eyes were much calmer.
"No! We won't get involved in this fight! This is a feud between those two, or rather, their own family matter. Besides, I already tried to persuade one of them once, but I was ignored. Why bother them again!"
Upon hearing the white cat Mumu's question, Mu Chong's lips curled into a slight smile. As he spoke, he changed the direction of his flight, heading towards a mountain outside the battlefield.
"Ok?"
"Hehehe! There are some interesting guys standing on that mountain over there. Let's go say hello!"
Swish!
While White Cat Mumu and Robin were wondering what was going on, Mu Chong chuckled and suddenly accelerated, his body disappearing into thin air in an instant.
Meanwhile, the Blackbeard Pirates' sniper Van Augur, helmsman Burgess, navigator Buffett, ship's doctor Doc Q, and a half-dead white horse, who were observing the battlefield from the sidelines, were all intently watching the battlefield.
"So-called Devil Fruit users become incredibly vulnerable once their abilities are taken away. No wonder he's a division commander in the Whitebeard Pirates; even his basic abilities are so amazing..."
Rumble!
Van Oka, carrying a sniper rifle, stood on the hillside, watching the ongoing battle ahead, muttering to himself in a detached tone.
"Today marks another crossroads in fate..."
hum!
However, just as Van Augur finished speaking, a terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the four people on the hillside and the horse.
Whoosh!
"Ok?"
"This momentum..."
"Who?"
In an instant, Van Augur and his three companions assumed defensive combat stances, their bodies tense, beads of sweat beading on their foreheads, their eyes narrowed, and they stared warily in the same direction.
Swish!
As the air rippled, Mu Chong and his two companions, dressed in white robes, appeared on the hillside to the right of the four.
"you……"
The moment Mu Chong appeared, Van Augur's expression froze, his eyes flashing with incredulous terror. He never expected to see the chivalrous Mu Chong, who had once invited him, here again.
"Hmm? Oh my! I didn't expect to meet a man like you here. Your name has been appearing frequently on the sea lately! Hero Mu Chong!"
Standing to the side, the devilish sheriff Lafitt, who had already drawn his pistol, stared at Mu Chong in astonishment. Although his voice sounded calm as usual, his defensive posture remained unchanged.
"Hahaha! Who do we have here? It's that guy who's always being chased by the Navy and the World Government. Are you here to fight?"
Compared to Lafitte's caution, Champion Bages acted much more arrogantly, grinning widely and spouting nonsense at Mu Chong.
Stab it!
However, the instant Champion Burgess finished speaking, the white cat Mumu, who was standing next to Muchong, vanished from its spot. A flash of white lightning streaked across the sky, and the next second, it appeared before Burgess.
"Hey! Burgess, get out of the way..."
"Hahahaha..."
Despite Van Augur's immediate warning, Bagges dismissed the attack from the white cat Mumu, even preparing to loudly mock it.
"Who gave you the audacity to laugh at my brother?"
boom!
However, when the white cat Mumu's fist, imbued with Armament Haki and white lightning, struck Burgess's crossed arms, the latter swallowed back the words he was about to say.
boom!
With a loud explosion, Burgess's body was slammed down the hillside by a punch from the white cat Mumu, crashing straight into the jungle below.
call!
A gust of wind swept across the hillside, ruffling everyone's clothes. The remaining members of the Blackbeard Pirates stared motionlessly at the white cat Mumu, who had taken Burgess's place, their eyes flashing with surprise.
If it were Mu Chong who attacked, they probably wouldn't have shown such expressions, but their champion, Bages, whom they knew well, was sent flying by a single punch from someone who didn't look entirely human.
"Hehehe! A chivalrous hero..."
Seeing this, Lafitte seemed to have given up on taking further action. He slowly holstered his pistol, and as he picked up his cane, he smiled at Mu Chong.
hum!
However, before Lafitte could finish speaking, a powerful gravitational force enveloped them, instantly turning Lafitte's expression extremely ugly.
Pfft!
With the application of gravity, Doc Q and his white horse, who already appeared weak and powerless, were forcefully pressed against the hillside platform.
Meanwhile, Lafayette and Van Augur, who had remained silent, were struggling to support themselves, their faces displaying utter terror that perfectly illustrated their thoughts at that moment.
Facing Mu Chong, they were unable to even directly confront his aura, which filled their hearts with bitterness.
"Hey! Don't get so excited, everyone! I'm just here to watch the battle. Don't act like you're facing a formidable enemy. What if I get excited and kill you all? Then that guy Diqi will be left all alone."
