Chapter 286: [Sword of Clouds - Decapitation]
Stab it!
Swish!
The masked man had barely finished speaking when his serrated broadsword slicing through the black staff with a piercing sound! Then, the serrated broadsword swung rapidly towards Slard, leaving afterimages in the air.
Clang! Clang! Clang...
Facing the masked man's rapid attacks, Slad remained unfazed, wielding his black staff with ferocious power, deflecting countless blades.
"Hee-la-la-la..."
The masked man's attacks were interspersed with laughter as he fully enjoyed the thrill of the battle. His movements became increasingly rapid, and the serrated broadsword in his hand grew ever more ruthless.
Clang! Clang! Clang...
Click!
"Useless trash! Push harder! Useless trash! Make me even more excited! Disobedient trash, all of you must die, all of you die! Hee hee hee hee!"
Harsh sounds echoed across the pirate ship as the masked man and Slade fought rapidly across the deck.
Click!
puff!
"what!!!"
"Hiss! Don't attack me!!"
With screams echoing, chaos erupted on the pirate ship's deck as the masked man, in a frenzy, even killed his own men.
Clang! Clang! Clang...
Slad fought and retreated, not caring who his opponent's sword was cutting—they were all pirates anyway. However, the strength of the guy he was fighting was becoming increasingly difficult to handle.
"Hee-la-la-la..."
"Shut up, you idiot! Hasn't anyone told you that your laughter is awful?"
when!
Just as the masked man laughed again, Slad exerted force with both arms as he spoke, the power emanating from the black staff instantly knocking the man back, and then stood with the staff horizontally.
"hiss!"
"What...what did that guy say?"
"How dare he?"
Slad's voice echoed across the entire deck of the pirate ship, causing all the pirates to shudder and their faces to show disbelief.
Sure enough, under everyone's gaze, the masked man's body began to tremble, as if he were enduring extreme discomfort and pain.
"Hehehehehe! You bastard! Not only are you disobedient, but the things you say are making me angry. Tell me, how should I make you die?"
A hoarse laugh escaped the masked man's lips once more, but this time the laughter was filled with cruelty, and his eyes were filled with icy coldness.
choke!
The masked man brought the serrated blade to his lips, lightly licking the edge with his tongue. A trickle of blood flowed from his tongue, but his eyes only gleamed with greater excitement.
"Damn! What a disgusting guy! I really can't stand it anymore!"
Slard watched the guy opposite him play and immediately felt a black line appear on his forehead. He had never seen such a disgusting guy since he set sail.
boom!
Slad first planted the black stick in his hand into the deck to make it stand firm, and then, under the watchful eyes of all the pirates, slowly rolled up his sleeve, revealing a black lump tied to his arm.
"Huh? What's that guy doing?"
"What's that strapped to his arm? A weapon?"
Slad's actions puzzled the surrounding pirates, who began to whisper among themselves. The masked man standing opposite Slad also watched with great interest.
"Hee-la-la-la! Ready to die?"
Slad ignored what the other person said and continued to untangle the black lump tied to his arm.
boom!
With a muffled thud, Slad tossed the dark bump on his arm to his feet, and at that moment, he let out a deep breath.
"Phew! This is so much easier! Fighting with this thing on is such a hindrance. I wonder how that captain managed to do it?"
As Slad muttered to himself and stretched his joints, to the surrounding pirates, he seemed reborn at that moment.
"Ok?"
The masked man in front of him had a shadowy look in his eyes. He could sense that the person standing in front of him was different, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
"Then let the battle end here! Gentlemen! When you bombarded the Liberty, your fate was sealed. So, may you rest in peace!"
hum!
"Hee-la-la... Uh?..."
The masked man was about to mock Slad when he heard his words, but a sudden, terrifying aura froze him in place.
"hiss……"
Slad's Conqueror's Haki instantly enveloped the entire deck of the pirate ship. The moment all the pirate minions came into contact with this aura, their eyes began to roll back and their bodies swayed.
boom!
Swish!
However, Slard didn't wait for them to fall. Instead, as he released Conqueror's Haki, his body vanished from the spot. The speed he displayed now was vastly different from before.
"Sword of Clouds - Decapitation!"
puff!
A chilling voice echoed through the air, a flash of white light streaked across the masked man's neck, and Slad appeared on the deck behind him.
call!
Glug glug!
The wind generated by Slard's high-speed movement blew across the deck a step behind, and the masked man's head rolled onto the deck at that moment.
puff!
A spurt of blood gushed from the severed neck, instantly staining the entire area crimson, while the now-cease-rolling head revealed a face still bearing a mocking expression.
boom!boom!boom……
This scene was unseen by anyone on the pirate ship's deck except for Slard, because all the other pirates were currently collapsing unconscious on the deck.
"Hmm! My body feels so much lighter after removing the sea stone, there's no feeling of stagnation at all..."
Bubbles! Bubbles!
Bubbles! Bubbles!
Just as Slad was muttering to himself and preparing to leave the pirate ship, a Den Den Mushi suddenly rang out. Slad looked in the direction of the sound and saw that it was coming from under the headless corpse's shirt.
"Hmm? A Den Den Mushi?"
Swish!
Slad raised an eyebrow, without much thought, and slowly raised his right hand, activating his Cloud-Cloud Fruit ability. An arm formed from clouds reached towards the headless corpse, pulling a gold-rimmed Den Den Mushi from under the corpse's shirt.
Click!
Having acquired the Den Den Mushi, Slade answered the call without the slightest hesitation.
"Moshi moshi! This is the Den Den Mushi (snail communication point) of the Kingdom of Sodler. Please connect me to His Highness Sodlerkis!"
As soon as the Den Den Mushi was connected, a professional and respectful voice came through, with a slightly flustered tone.
"Say!"
Upon hearing the voice coming from the Den Den Mushi, Slad glanced calmly at the headless corpse beside him, then uttered a single word to the Mushi.
"Forehead……"
After Slater's voice fell, there was a noticeable pause in the Den Den Mushi, but it was only for a moment before the voice came through again.
"Your Highness Sodekis, His Majesty the King has instructed me to inform you to return to the Kingdom of Sodekis as soon as possible. Please return immediately!"
The voice coming from the Den Den Mushi was somewhat hesitant, but still conveyed the message completely.
"understood!"
Click!
boom!
"Tsk tsk tsk! I accidentally killed a prince. Now it'll be a bit of a hassle to resupply in the Kingdom of Soderle! Tch!"
Swish!
Slad gave a curt reply, then crushed the Den Den Mushi. He muttered to himself as he retrieved his weapon from the deck, turned, and took to the air, flying towards the Liberty.
call!
Rumble!
However, just as Slard had walked away, a huge white cloud suddenly appeared directly above the pirate ship, its churning revealing a terrifying danger.
