Chapter Seventy-One: The Indomitable Owen
Before the thunder could get closer, Diamanti touched the ground with his hand, and the incredible power of the Devil Fruit gushed out, immediately transforming the ground in a radius of hundreds of meters as light as cloth, like a huge flag fluttering in the wind.
If it were an ordinary person who was fighting Diamanti, he would probably fall because he couldn't keep his balance, and he would lose the ability to fight back. But this move obviously had no effect on Ray, who just floated lightly in the air after being elementalized, perfectly avoiding Diamanti's self-righteous attack.
"You can fly!" By this time, Diamanti was feeling a little bit worse.
Although he knew that he had no means to harm the natural system, he felt that he could complete the abuse of thunder in terms of physical skills and experience, and even if he couldn't hurt thunder, he could suppress thunder and escape calmly.
However, after discovering that Lei would fly, Diamanti's confidence was not as firm as it was at first, and he began to look around and make the safest escape plan.
"Want to escape? That's not going to work. Ray saw Diamanti's intentions and spoke.
"I learned some information about your family from Aunt He, you seem to be one of the four top cadres of the Don Quixote family, and your ability is the fluttering fruit of the superhuman system. My clone didn't pierce your cloak just now, and if I'm not mistaken, that cloak was made of steel that you transformed with your fruit ability! Ray slowly revealed the secret of Diamanti's abilities, leaving him in doubt.
"So what? You still can't hit me through steel. Diamanti grinned, his teeth glinting, but his heart grew more and more panicked.
"How? Not how! Just wanted to show you the power of knowledge. Ray shook his head pityingly, his condescending look making Diamanti's heart unhappy.
"Thunder - thunder!"
At some point, a large dark cloud gathered in the sky, which became even more eerie in the night, and as the thunder's words fell, a thunderbolt smashed on Diamanti with an undodgable speed.
The powerful electricity immediately scorched Diamanti's body, causing him to roll his eyes and lose consciousness in an instant, and his back was even more severely injured by the steel cloak behind him, and the smell of roasted meat filled the air.
Because of Diamanti's coma, the ground that had previously become like a flag was restored to its original state, and in the place where he was unconscious, a large crater several meters wide appeared on the ground due to the bombardment of falling thunder.
"I will have the opportunity to study more in my next life, otherwise I won't even know how I died." Thunder fell to the edge of the pit and raised the Iron Cloud Sword in his hand towards the unconscious Diamanti.
"Poof!" Blood splattered.
"Let me see where the hell is Owen?" Throwing away the Iron Cloud Sword casually, Ray closed his eyes and expanded the range of what he saw and heard to the maximum, carefully searching for Owen's location.
"Here!" Ray opened his eyes suddenly, his body like a rocket jet, and rushed towards Owen's place at great speed.
......
Owen's Battlefield
After being knocked to his knees by Beckman with a punch, Owen remained motionless in a half-kneeling position, seemingly losing the ability to fight back, but in fact secretly recovering his numb right leg.
"You still don't give up, it's the first time I've seen such a shaft navy like you!" Standing in front of Owen, Beckman frowned.
Owen thought he could fool Beckman's eyes, but he didn't know that his trick was clearly seen by Beckman, which was caused by the overall gap in wisdom and strength between the two.
Now that it was exposed, Owen no longer hid, got up and punched Beckman in the chin, his muscular right fist filled with all body strength, and there was even a dull sound in the air.
"Since you're still so entangled, then don't blame me for being too heavy." With a twist of his waist, Beckman easily avoided Owen's surprise attack, and the nasolabial folds on his face became more distinct in the gloom.
While dodging Owen's fist, Beckman clamped his shoulders with both hands like an eagle pounced, his right leg bent slightly, and the blackened knee smashed into Owen's left rib.
"Click!" There was a crisp crack of bone, and the pain filled Owen's head, making it impossible for him to react to Beckman's next move.
Breaking Owen's ribs with his knee, Beckman didn't stop, and the hands that clamped Owen's shoulders slid down the force of his upside-down flight, holding Owen's wrists.
"Click!" With another bang, Beckman broke Owen's wrists with his hardened hands, and pulled Owen's two arms to dislocation.
But even so, Owen didn't let out a scream. In the severe pain, his eyes were wide open, the roots of his teeth were clenched, the blue tendons on his forehead were bursting up, and a drop of sweat the size of a bean was dripping down his cheeks, but he still refused to say the words of surrender.
Seeing Owen's backbone, Shanks, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but admire, he always liked to make friends, and he felt that this man had a great appetite for himself.
"That's enough, Beckman, he's no longer able to resist, let's go!" Shanks finally couldn't help but stop.
Hearing the captain's words, Beckman directly let go of the hands that held Owen in place. Owen, who was exhausted and weak by the pain, couldn't even stand, and fell to the ground with a "bang", and the broken ribs made it even more difficult for him to breathe, so he could only maintain a collapsed position.
"I'm afraid it's hard to find a craftsman who can coat us now, and those crazy bastards don't know if they've been captured by the navy, should we take him hostage?" Beckman kicked Owen, who had fallen to the ground, and turned his head to Shanks to ask.
"Don't worry, those guys aren't that stupid, the Navy can't catch them, let's go back to the ship first. As for this navy, we will put him here, and save the navy from chasing after it for a while. Shanks said with his right hand clasped on the straw hat on his head.
"Oh! Want to go? Do you want to leave after you hurt my men like this? A voice of pent-up anger came from the sky, causing Shanks and the others to look up.
When Shanks and the others looked up, they saw a navy floating in the sky, covered in clouds and mist, and although his face could not be seen clearly because of the darkness, the evil aura falling from the sky showed that the comer was not good.
This navy was Ray who arrived in a hurry, and he had sensed that Owen's condition was not good before, but when he arrived here, he found that Owen's injuries were more serious than he thought.
"Don't even think about leaving!" Ray swooped down from the sky with rage, stabbing Shanks and Beckman with an Iron Cloud Sword in each hand.
"What? The two of us were so far apart, how could he want to attack both of us at the same time. Unlike Shanks, who immediately took precautions, Beckman frowned in thought, not understanding Ray's approach.
But in the next moment, the two swords in Ray's hand skyrocketed in length, and he figured out why. In his hasty dodge, Beckman was sliced through his clothes by Ray's sword, nearly injuring his flesh.
