One sentence clarifies the situation.

Maude's sentence can be said to be straight to the point.

The pheasant's eyes were slightly solemn.

If he continues to fight Maude here, his comrades will fall one by one until there is no more than half of them.

Unless he can get rid of Maud in a short period of time.

But this is obviously not possible.

The man in front of him, who had a rather special background and became extremely powerful in only three years, already had the strength to face him head-on.

In a one-on-one situation, even he can't assert victory.

Thankfully, only about a week has passed since the end of the war.

In such a short period of time, presumably Maude's [Shadow Inventory] is almost zero, and even if there is, it should not be much.

Otherwise

If Maud had used the shadow move that she had used to deal with Whitebeard that had dramatically increased her strength, I am afraid that the situation would have become even more tricky and troublesome.

now

Maude's ability to demonstrate in the Tops War has been recorded by naval intelligence one by one, and it has been analyzed and listed in detail.

This kind of treatment is not an exaggeration to say that it is the level of the Four Emperors.

Therefore, the pheasant has a certain degree of understanding of Maude's shadow ability, and also knows that Maude has not thrown out all his abilities in his dozens of battles.

So, what do you do now?

The pheasant sighed softly in her heart.

Naturally, he didn't have to worry about his situation, and even if he was besieged by the entire Maude Pirates after his colleagues fell, he didn't think he would be defeated.

But to defeat the entire Maude Pirates on his own, Pheasant is also not completely sure.

eventually

Pheasant's style of acting is different from that of Akainu, who upholds extreme justice.

In such a situation, the pheasant will not let his colleagues continue to sacrifice senselessly.

Moreover, the progress of this operation is already halfway completed.

Although it is unclear whether using the crew of the Hearts Pirates as a bargaining chip can make Trafalgar. Luo took the [Living Heart] in exchange, but at least it also gave the pheasant the confidence to give up the second action directly.

"What a 'mistake'."

The pheasant seemed to have made a decision, and his eyes changed slightly.

What he said about a mistake is tantamount to failure.

In fact, he can also wait for the [reinforcements] to arrive, but before the reinforcements arrive, the ghost spiders should have been cold for a long time.

"Ice Age!"

After making a decision, the pheasant immediately urged a large amount of cold air and swept towards Maude.

If the previous Ice Age was meant to kill Maude.

Then, the current Ice Age is intended to contain Maude.

Depending on the motivation, the moves used will also show a certain degree of difference in power and effect.

This time sweeping towards Maude's Ice Age? Obviously focusing on the range of the air-conditioning and the speed at which it travels? Intended to dissuade Maude, thus ignoring the rate of ice condensation.

Maud who has fought against the pheasant several times before? With the help of seeing and hearing? In an instant, I sensed the pheasant's plan and the changes in this ice age.

"I remind you? Just because I'm trying to force you to make a choice doesn't mean I'm going to let you get it. ”

Maude's eyes narrowed? Know that the pheasant has made a choice.

So?

What he should do next is to keep causing trouble to the pheasant.

"Shadow Cave Road."

The shadows gathered at Maude's feet suddenly turned into a large range of flowing waves, sticking to the ground? Soaring towards the Ice Age, roaring from the front.

With the ability to shape shadows freely? Maud can easily replicate the moves of some strong men.

For example, Ace's Fire Fist, and Doflamingo's Holy Murder Bomb.

And this trick shadow acupoint is a replica of Blackbeard's dark acupoint.

It's just that the [Shadow Box] space developed by Maude is not yet mature.

So you can't do it like the dark tunnel, after the darkness is laid on the ground? Suck a large number of objects into another space.

However, there are other abilities that can be extended through the Shadow Cave trait.

"Pheasant? You can't freeze my shadow, that means? My shadow can 'destroy' your moves constantly. ”

Under Maud's control, a large area of shadow waves spread rapidly from the ground to the front.

Quick as a wink? Just in the sector in front of Maude? Covered with surging shadows.

The cold air of the Ice Age is whistling? The shadow waves that surged on the ground were frozen in the thick ice, and the aftermath swept towards Maud unabated.

"If you want to destroy, just go for it......"

The pheasant did not have the heart to be aggressive, and glanced calmly at the frozen shadow on the surface.

His whole body gradually turned into an elemental, and then turned into a burst of ice and flew into the air, rushing towards the No. 13 Tree Island, where the ghost spider and the other navy were located.

Now that some of the chips are in hand, there is no need to fight Maude here, and minimizing losses is the most important thing to do right now.

The pheasant's actions and movements were seen by Maude.

"So what are you doing in a hurry? Stay and play with me for a while! ”

Maud stretched out her hand to face the sweeping Ice Age, and suddenly clenched her fist.

"Shadow Cave Dao, Strangling Vine!"

The shadows frozen in the ice suddenly turned into countless thorns covered with spikes, breaking through the ice from all over the ice, like a mouth full of interlaced sharp teeth, suddenly closing.

Boom, click!!

The huge ice layer was directly crushed by countless shadow thorns.

Suddenly, a large amount of ice that broke apart fell from mid-air and smashed heavily on the No. 14 Tree Island, which was split in half.

The continuous impact of falling to the ground made the devastated No. 14 Tree Island finally unable to hold on, and gradually sank towards the bottom of the sea at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Partial Armament Color Enhancement."

Maud didn't care about the situation on the tree island under her feet, and her sharp eyes moved with the movement of the pheasant.

Under the manipulation of the mind, the blooming shadow thorns, after crushing the ice, pounced on the pheasant that turned into ice and moved with overwhelming force.

"Entwined with the color of the armament......"

The pheasant looked at the shadow thorns covered with armed colors that rushed to the front, and his eyes were slightly condensed, trying to find a gap in the shadow thorns that he could pass through.

however

Maude's desire to stop the pheasant is very strong, and in the case of getting the first opportunity, how can he leave a chance for the pheasant.

The thorn swarm, covered with armament, converged into an impenetrable offensive and threw it at the pheasant in mid-air.

Realizing that he couldn't cut through the attack, the pheasant decisively dismantled the elementalization.

Returning to his human form, he did not hesitate to turn defense into offense, unleashing a high-grade armed color, covering his arms, and condensing a skate blade that was also covered with armed color in his palm.

In the face of an endless and freely changing shadow offensive, a single defense is only a slow death.

Only a strong attack is the way to win against the shadow offensive.

This has been thoroughly studied by the Navy.

Although the pheasant has made a decision to put the lives of his colleagues first, he will not miss the opportunity to fight back.

"Ice Thorn Cone."

The pheasant's eyes were full of red light, and he stabbed the shadow thorn with his sword.

“room。”

At this moment, a hemispherical realm space appeared out of thin air, enveloping Maud and Pheasant, as well as the Shadow Thorns.

The appearance of the surgical field made the pheasant's face change slightly.

Maude raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said in his heart: I didn't expect it, right? I'm ...... But there's one person who hasn't appeared.

"Transfer."

Luo, who had revealed his aura from the shadows, activated his ability with an indifferent expression.

Under his control, the pheasant, which was originally facing the shadow thorns, instantly turned into a posture with its back to the shadow thorns in a soft sound.

The extremely powerful knife that should have stabbed the shadow thorn was naturally quite embarrassing in the air.

Immediately after, the shadow thorns that swooped from behind the pheasant slapped mercilessly on the pheasant's back.

Bang bang bang——!

This was accompanied by several explosions at very short intervals.

The pheasant was flapped away by the shadow thorns, and its body turned into a black shadow, and flew straight to the body of the No. 15 Yarki mangrove tree farther away.

Meanwhile.

In order to shorten the distance between him and the pheasant, Maud had a thought and switched places with the Shadow Thorn.

Swish!

In an instant, Maud came to the position where the shadow thorn had slapped the pheasant into the air just now.

"Hegemon."

In mid-air, Maude surged with a conspicuous momentum.

A faint white light emerged from the body of the autumn water knife one by one like fireflies.

"Slash!"

Maud swung his knife sharply.

The firefly light on the body of the autumn water knife suddenly flourished, turning into a crescent-shaped slash full of dazzling light, and chased the green pheasant that flew out in the air.

Now.

The flying pheasant slammed into the body of the No. 15 Yarki mangrove tree.

While smashing the tree into a large hole, it made a loud noise that resounded through several surrounding tree islands.

The pheasant's body is deeply embedded in the tree pit.

The cold air that flooded from his body instantly condensed layers of frost at the edge of the tree pit.

"It's dangerous......"

The pheasant, who did not appear to be visibly injured, pushed his hand and pulled his upper body out of the tree pit.

As soon as he made this movement, he saw a dazzling white light reflected from behind him, passing over his body and covering the pit of the tree.

In this regard,

The pheasant, which has always maintained its sight and hearing, is not too surprised.

The menacing overlord slash crushed his back in this way, and then brutally cut off the No. 15 Yarki mangrove tree.

subsequently

Under the stunned gaze of the crowd, the huge crescent-shaped hegemonic slash continued unabated, and the four Yarki mangrove trees on the 16th, 19th, 22nd, 25th, and 28th were cut down one after another.

Eventually, along the edge of Tree Island 28, it did not dissipate until far above the surface of the sea.

"Boom ......"

At the same time that No. 14 Tree Island sank to the bottom of the sea, five Yarki mangrove trees, including No. 16, No. 19, No. 22, No. 25, and No. 28, which were cut down by the hegemon, fell to the ground one after another.

At the same time as there was a loud sound of movement, the tremor caused by the fall of the mangrove tree in Yarki was transmitted and radiated directly to all corners of the Chambord Islands.

The entire Chambord Islands shook violently as if they were experiencing a strong earthquake.

The people in the Chambord Islands, whether it is the garrison or the people, and even the pirates, can hardly hide their fear.

"What did I just see!? The person who was beaten on the tree was Admiral Pheasant?!! ”

A pirate with a bounty of nearly 100 million was dumbfounded as he watched the momentum caused by a single move to dominate the country.

"Smack——!

The companion next to him slapped the pirate with all his might, and was stunned to fan the starlight in the pirate's eyes.

"Does it hurt?"

"Smack——!

The pirate came to his senses and replied with a backhand of a slap.

"Does it hurt?"

"Painful !!"

"So, we're not dreaming, are we?"

"Smack——!

"Smack——!

"Sure enough, it's not a dream!"

"So what did we just see?!"

"Admiral Pheasant...... Knocked off by Maude......"

"Is it ...... dead?"

The pirates couldn't hide their horror, and they looked like a few Archi vine islands that were about to sink.

Shocked and shocked, they had even anticipated the worst.

That is - the entire Chambord archipelago could be sunk directly to the bottom of the sea by Maude.

At this moment, the panic brought by Maud completely spread to the entire Chambord Islands.

The all-out hegemonic slash almost destroyed one-third of the Chambord Islands' impassable area.

Due to the sinking of Tree Island 14, Maud and Law retreated to the edge of Tree Island 13.

"Ugh."

Maude looked at the huge gap that was crushed by the hegemon, and sighed: "If you want to kill the general, it is really not so easy to do. ”

Under the perception of seeing and hearing, the pheasant's breath is still stable and strong.

This shows that the hegemonic slash just now did not cause substantial harm to the pheasant.

Hearing Maude's words, Luo Shen beside him was speechless, thinking to himself: As a general representing the top combat power of the navy, if he was killed so easily, the navy would have been doomed a long time ago.

"It's not just the fruit ability, but even the weapon color and the seeing and hearing color are extraordinarily strong, it's just a monster of monsters."

Luo hugged the ghost with one hand and cried, looking solemnly in the direction where the pheasant was.

Mo Deting glanced at Luo in surprise, and said in surprise: "What, you saw it clearly just now?" ”

“……”

The corners of Luo's mouth twitched slightly, and he sighed: "How weak am I in your eyes?" ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, that's not what I meant."

Maud smiled apologetically at Law.

Seeing this, Luo rubbed his forehead with his palm, and then said in a low tone: "Maybe...... It's not because the pheasant's sight and hearing is so powerful, but because my ability release speed is too slow, so I gave the pheasant a chance to react in time. ”

"Nope."

Maude patted Luo on the shoulder and said calmly:

"Don't think that the pheasant is a natural ability, just think that his knowledge is not strong, in fact, the monster that can become a general, whether it is domineering or Devil Fruit ability, is at the top level."

"Hmm."

Hearing this, Luo nodded silently.

Just now, the color of the armed and the color of what he saw and heard at the critical moment was indeed so strong that he was frightened.

This made him, for a moment, ignore the identity of the pheasant as a top natural ability.

Maud withdrew her hand and stared at Tree Island 14, which had turned into an ocean in front of her.

I saw bursts of cold air generated out of thin air, and in an instant, the sea water was frozen into a thick layer of ice.

"Did the offensive just now hurt the pheasant?"

Looking at the frozen sea, Maude thought to herself.

In that case, if he had 500 shadows to bless him, he might be able to seriously injure the pheasant......

But there was no if.

Collecting another 500 high-quality shadows is no easy task.

The surface of the sea freezes into ice.

The pheasant emerges from the ice.

Maud noticed the blood at the corner of the pheasant's mouth at a glance.

The pheasant, on the other hand, focused on Luo, who was beside Maude, and immediately took a quick look at the situation on the ghost spider's side, which seemed to be very bad.

"Trafalgar. Luo, although the timing is not very appropriate, but ......"

The pheasant scratched his cheek helplessly and sighed:

"Your people are in our hands."

"Huh?!"
