The moon step is a very practical technique.

Using this technique, Maud easily led Rowe to the top of the whale's head on Leviathan Island.

Located at the entrance and exit of the human ladder box, that is, the place where the stone pillars pass to the top, is a dark green stone road that leads straight to the capital of King Ahab.

On both sides of the stone pavement, there are hanging lantern vines that can still thrive under the scorching sun.

Each tendrel is the size of a baby's arm, and the surface is covered with small lilac spikes, revealing a different kind of beauty when the sun shines.

"Is this the root of the hanging lantern vine......

Maude raised his eyes to see the dark green stone road under his feet and the royal capital building standing not far away.

As far as the eye can see, there are all these roots exposed to the sun.

Before he came up, he only knew that the hanging lantern vine was a national treasure of the Ahab Kingdom, and he thought that there would be some protective measures.

outcome

Now it seems that there are not only substantial protective measures, but everywhere.

What is more special is that the roots of the hanging lantern vine are different from ordinary plants, and they do not need to take root and underground, and even need sun exposure to speed up the growth rate.

"Maud is at home, and the spikes on the roots are highly poisonous."

Luo walked to the hanging lights on both sides of the stone road, and reminded him at the right time.

Maud chuckled, not paying much attention, and instead looked in the direction of Ahab's royal capital.

He had brought Luo here as a [helper], and he had no interest in these so-called national treasures.

On the contrary, it was the royal capital of Ahab at the end of the stone road that aroused some of his thoughts.

"I didn't expect this ...... before"

Maud's eyes sparkled.

How much [heritage] will a country that attaches so much importance to accumulating wealth have?

Just by touching the thought, Maude seemed to see the banknotes flying in the sky.

"Luo, I'll go ahead and have a look."

Maud left a word, and no matter how Luo reacted, he walked along the stone path and went straight to King Ahab.

"Maude is in charge...... house?"

Luo turned his head to look at Maude's back and couldn't help but sigh softly.

Thinking with my feet, I also know the meaning of Maude to "look ahead".

Holding back from saying things such as asking Maud to solve it quickly, Luo silently withdrew his gaze and opened the field of the surgical fruit towards the hanging lantern vine root in front of him.

Picking or carrying the hanging lantern vine is a troublesome and dangerous task.

But Luo has the ability to operate the fruit, and it takes less than ten seconds to pick a sufficient amount of hanging lantern vine roots.

So, here's the problem.

How long is he going to wait here?

Okay, come and get the hanging lantern vine roots......

Luo was full of helplessness, and commanded the hanging lantern vine roots to fly in front of him one by one.

With the help of his ability, it didn't take long for Luo to collect a sufficient amount of hanging lantern vine roots.

At this time, Maude walked out of the distance of 100 meters.

Luo looked at Maude's back, a little hesitant.

He wanted to stop Maude and tell Maud that it was over.

But this kind of behavior feels like ruining Maude's interest.

With this in mind, Luo finally chose to remain silent.

He silently watched Maude walk away.

suddenly

Luo seemed to be aware of this, and suddenly looked at the passage of the stone pillar human ladder box.

"Who is it...... Well? ”

Without any hesitation, Law's right hand climbed onto the hilt of Devil Cry.

At the same time, he kept staring at the entrance of the passage as he kept sprinting backwards.

When he withdrew for dozens of meters, a tall figure rushed out of the passage, and immediately stepped on the air and landed steadily to the ground.

After seeing that the person who came was Vice Admiral Momoto Gion of the Navy Headquarters, Luo's face changed suddenly.

As long as the pirates are mixed in the great passage, they will basically take the initiative to learn about some famous navy.

You don't need to know too much, at least remember the relevant information of the lieutenant general and even the general.

The advantage of this is that if you encounter it on the sea in the future, you may be able to buy some more time to escape.

"This woman...... How did it end up here? ”

After recognizing the other party's origin, Luo's heart was solemn.

Gion landed, and like Luo, his right hand immediately attached to the hilt of the saber Jin Bira.

The unwavering eyes swept over Luo's appearance, and Gion said lightly: "Trafalgar. Luo, with a bounty of 72 million. ”

Luo pushed the handle of the knife with his thumb, his eyes were full of vigilance, and he said calmly: "It's really an honor for a little minion like me, who is not well-known, to be remembered by the lieutenant general of the headquarters." ”

Gion was silent.

Suddenly, Jin Biluo came out of the sheath.

Shatianmen!

Gion slashed at Luo Ji several times.

Luo didn't even see Gion's swing trajectory when he saw a crimson slash coming at him.

"Tsk......"

Luo's eyes shrank sharply.

“Room。”

Hemispherical space unfolds in response.

Luo's form disappeared in an instant, moving beyond the range of the slash, thus avoiding Gion's move of the Sand Heavenly Gate.

however

I don't know if Gion was able to understand the fruit of the operation, or simply with the help of reflexes or seeing and hearing, when Luo teleported to another location, Gion followed.

Swish!

Gion slashed straight at Luo's vital point.

Luo gritted his teeth and drew his knife to resist dangerously.

Boom!

Sparks burst!

Luo couldn't stand the power of Gion and was cut back a few steps by this sword.

Gion didn't spare his hand, and a dodge came to Luo's face, and once again drove the knife to Luo's vital point.

Luo Pin took a few steps back and messed up, but he still raised his sword in time to parry Gion's onslaught.

however

In the face of Gion's attack that was entangled in the armed color, Luo's strength could not resist the amplification effect brought by the armed color, and he was slashed back again.

This time, Gion made up for it.

Boom!

A powerful kick hit Luo's abdomen, causing Luo to spit blood and his body fly upside down like a curved shrimp.

Gion looked at Luo who flew out upside down with cold eyes, and swung his sword to slash away a crimson sword qi slash.

"Room, ahem......"

Luo, who was flying upside down in the air, hurriedly glanced at the slash that was coming after him, and was about to open his surgical fruit ability to avoid this slash, when Luo stepped on the moon step and came to him first.

Maud held a thousand birds in her hand and slashed diagonally, shattering the oncoming crimson slash.

"This knife."

After shattering Gion's slash, Maud slowly landed on the ground, holding the knife across her nose, revealing a pair of sharp eyes on the blade.

"You're coming for me, old woman......"

“……”

Gion calmly looked at Maude's provocative expression and demeanor, and did not deny it, nor did he acknowledge Maude's call for an old woman.

Luo also landed on the ground, holding his belly and standing behind Maude, looking beyond Gion to the four naval officers who had just come out of the passage.

"Maud is in charge, will you run?"

In Luo's view, meaningless battles can be avoided.

“……”

Maud didn't speak, but looked at the wolf rat in the passage that he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Maude."

The wolf mouse looked at Maude, who was not inferior in momentum even in the face of Gion, and his expression was slightly complicated.

I haven't seen each other for more than a year.

This young man who always likes to dig holes for him in Mad Hat Town seems to have increased by leaps and bounds in terms of strength.

Maude glanced at the eldest brother wolf mouse, then looked at Gion, and said coldly:

"Luo, I have a grudge with this old woman, so it's impossible for me to escape, either kill them here, or fight to the death."

"Maud is ......"

Luo's eyes changed, and the secret way was not good.

Fight to the death......

Against a strong enemy like Gion, it is not a rational act to fight to the death and not retreat.

"Huh?"

Luo, who was secretly anxious, suddenly saw Maude's left hand on his back, using his index and middle fingers to make a gesture of pulling his legs and running.

“？？？”

Luo looked at the gesture and his face shook slightly.

Said that the battle to the death will not retreat???

Hearing Maude's declaration, a smile suddenly appeared on Gion's charming face.

"Fight to the death and not retreat? It's better to ...... that way."

Gion pointed his knife at Maude and said calmly: "In terms of ambition, you are much better than that trickster who only knows how to escape." ”

"Bang!"

Maudna's left hand, which was behind him, suddenly pulled out the crow and aimed it at Gion and pulled the trigger.

Buckshots, wrapped in armament color, flew over a short distance and arrived in front of Gion in the blink of an eye.

Laugh at!

Gion swung his sword and slashed it in half without any pressure.

"Tsk."

Seeing this, a look of jealousy flashed in the depths of Maude's eyes, and he directly put away the crow.

The strength of this old woman......

Domineering, knife skills, physique.

If you judge by star rating, most of the values are already more than six stars, right?

"Old woman, you didn't come to catch me, did you?"

"Catch?"

Gion raised his eyebrows slightly, and an undisguised killing intent appeared in his shiny eyes.

"Your strength is not weak, so you can only crusade against you on the premise of killing you, so as to avoid some risks that you don't need to take."

"Thank you so much."

This chic recognition allowed Maud to hold the knife in both hands.

In the past, when he faced the enemy, he would hold the knife with one hand as much as possible.

Only in this way will there be room to bring out the charm of the Usopp stream.

But this time the enemy is Gion, and he can't afford to be careless.

Gion stopped talking nonsense, kicked his feet, and rushed towards Maude with a knife.

In order to make room for Luo, Maude did not retreat but advanced, and took the initiative to meet the rushing Gion.

The two collided with knives.

The armed colors of each other converged where the blades collided, triggering a fierce wave of qi, shattering the roots of the hanging lanterns on both sides of the stone road.

"Sure enough, it was suppressed......"

Maud struggles to endure the power of Gion.

Now, even if he brushes up on the dungeon twice, he is still not Gion's opponent.

After all

After more than a year, it is impossible for him to be the only one who has made rapid progress.

Admiral-level navies like Gion stationed in the Great Passage have to deal with pirates who do whatever they want all the time.

In terms of strength, it is naturally impossible to stand still.

Maud didn't know how much Gion had gotten stronger during that time, but he was sure that he couldn't beat Gion with just one hand-to-hand encounter.

Taking advantage of the opportunity gained by suppression, Gion jerked back the golden bira, and immediately slashed at Maud like a storm.

Cold, and full of murderous intent.

Maude's face changed slightly, raising the color of what he saw and heard to the extreme, and raised his knife to parry with difficulty.

Boom Boom Boom ......!

Bursts of dazzling sparks burst between the two.

Maud is retreating, and Gion is advancing.

It's clear who is superior and who is inferior.

The two sides that were fighting fiercely crossed Luo in such an advance and retreat.

Silently watching Maude lure Gion away, Law turned to look at the four admirals in the passage, and his mind gradually became active.

The roots of the hanging lantern vine seem to have to be abandoned.

As Luo thought to himself, he saw four admirals led by wolf rats rushing towards him.

"It's timely."

A glint flashed in Law's eyes as he slowly stepped back, sticking to the edge of Maude and Gion's battle circle as much as he could.

The wolf rat stared at Luo and raised his hand to signal his companions to disperse.

The three generals suddenly stepped on the moon step and rose into the air, leaving the wide stone path, and volleyed over the hanging lantern vines on the rocky ground, trying to form a cross encirclement on Luo with a roundabout momentum.

Luo immediately sensed the intentions of the three generals, but he didn't take it seriously, and still slowly retreated, keeping a certain distance from Maude, who was fighting fiercely with Gion.

Soon, the three generals circled behind Luo and on both sides of the stone path.

And directly ahead, there is a wolf rat that is striding a meteor.

The first to attack was the admiral who had circled behind Luo.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Law ignored the attack coming from behind and raised his middle finger directly.

“Room。”

The spherical space that appears out of thin air will be included in everyone present in an instant.

Forcibly increasing the diameter range of the realm, Luo consumed a lot of physical strength in a single breath.

Swap

Luo sneered.

The admiral who slashed at Luo's back with a knife suddenly disappeared out of thin air, and was replaced by Maude, who made a posture of raising his knife to parry.

Under the effect of the ability of the surgical fruit, the two people completed the position reversal in an instant.

On the other side, the general who was transferred over was almost cut down by Gion.

"Well done."

Maude smiled slightly, didn't look behind him, and decisively reached out his left hand and grabbed the back collar of Luo.

"Uh-huh???"

Luo was slightly stunned.

Maud didn't have much extra effort to explain, and carried Luo with a silent step, quickly past the wolf rat blocking in front of him.

"Don't want to escape!"

The red light flashed in the wolf's eyes, and the figure disappeared in place.

But he used a shave, and dodged in front of Maude.

At the moment of appearance, the wolf rat had already taken the form of a man and a beast.

Finger guns, wolf fangs!

The wolf rat flexed and stretched out his right fingers, stabbing Maud with its claws, who were still not fully revealed.

"Do you see and hear the color......"

Maud paused, revealing her form.

But he didn't pause because he was forced to stop by wolves.

Silent Steps—Shadows!

As Maud paused, his ankle jerked to the ground, and he took advantage of the momentum to drive the knife towards the wolf and mouse.

"Stop!"

The wolf's eyes widened.

The spear fangs that pushed forward inexplicably passed through the knife and then hit Maude's chest.

"Huh?"

In the wolf's field of vision, Maude's body turned into a string of afterimages and disappeared with the wind.

Immediately after, a cold voice with a hint of sarcasm came from behind him.

"Brother Wolf Mouse, there is also a difference between strength and weakness, what you see and hear...... It's so weak. ”

When the sound started, before the wolf rat could react, it was slashed to the ground by Maude.

After overturning the wolf mouse, Maude didn't look at the situation of the wolf mouse, and he jumped down from the passage as soon as he didn't love fighting.

"Wolf rat!"

The sudden situation made Gion look cold, and he came to the wolf mouse as quickly as possible.

After confirming that the wolf rat was not in danger of life, she looked coldly at the passage not far away.

Tricked......

Gion gritted his teeth, anger on his face, and immediately jumped down the passage and chased after Maude who had fled.

When she chases down......

"You bunch of shit, save me!!"

Digal, who was held hostage by Maude, was at a loss and did not forget to cry out for help.

"Your Majesty!!"

The army and the guards were also a little confused, looking at Digar, who was held hostage by Maude.

A second ago, Digar was clearly under their heavy protection, how could he be held hostage by Maud in the blink of an eye?

Law leaned against Maude's side, his head bowed and gasping heavily.

The ability to overload the surgical fruit twice in a row almost drained his physical strength.

"Maude is in charge, I ......"

"Yes."

“？”

Law looked at Maude suspiciously.

He wanted to say that because his physical strength couldn't keep up, he couldn't use the ability of the surgical fruit to support him in the future.

As a result, you know before you finish speaking?

"Luo, your physical strength is not very good, it only takes two times and it will not work."

“……”

Luo was more puzzled, and he couldn't think about it anymore, so he let the weight of his body lean on Maude, and tried to adjust his breath as much as possible.

Maud placed the blade of the thousand doriges across Degar's neck, and immediately looked at Gion falling from the sky.

"Old woman, this guy is the king of the member country, is he qualified to be a bargaining chip?"

"Bacardi. Hammond. ”

Gion looked at Maude coldly, word by word.

Maude had a smile on her face, but her eyes were cold.

"Don't worry, even if I escape this time, I can guarantee that it won't be long before we meet again, but...... It might be interesting then. ”

“……”

Gion was silent.

Digar was still yelling.
