Beneath the mask, Bruno's face was heavy.

Because he had a hunch that he was likely to be finished today.

He is not Elusa's opponent at all, the other party is determined to protect Nicole Robin, he will definitely not be able to catch people, and as a senior agent to whom CP belongs, the only end if the mission fails is death.

In order to protect Nicole Robin, Elusa even said things like 'Is the World Government ready to go to war with Fairy Tail', which shows that the other party is not afraid of the rights of the World Government at all, and it is definitely not a force that keeps to itself.

Because generally speaking, it is they, the people who belong to the world government, who ask the lawless pirates, 'Are they ready to be enemies of the world government?'

What should I do now? Temporary retreat first? Or stay and fight each other to the end?

Bruno has made a decision: as a member of CP9, he not only has to fight with his life to complete the orders given to him by his superiors, but also needs to obtain information about his opponent for his companions to fight in the future!

Even if he couldn't beat it in the end, he still had the air gate as a means to escape.

So he attacked: "Shave! ”

Bruno increased his speed to the extreme this time, his figure disappeared and reappeared several times in the air with the momentum of moving left and right, so as to interfere with Elusa's judgment, and close the distance between him and Elusa in a very short time, the speed was so fast that Robin, who was watching the battle, could not see it clearly, but for Elusa, although his movements were fast, they were still in a predictable range.

Sure enough, the next moment......

"Finger gun!!"

Bruno's figure appeared, accompanied by a loud cry in his mouth, and the index finger of his right hand poked forward sharply, but when he saw the scene in front of him, his pupils suddenly shrank, because Elusa, who was still standing there, had disappeared at this moment!

His attack missed!

In the midst of the lightning and fire, Bruno's afterglow swept to his side, and his bewitching red hair flashed.

Swish!!

The sword flashed, and the two figures were misplaced.

Bruno's fingers still poked forward, one finger trembling in the air; Elusa's expression was indifferent, her eyes looked straight ahead, and the blade of the sword in her hand had a touch of red.

Puff——!

Columns of blood spray out of Bruno's chest!

It turned out that just now, Elusa had already slashed at him!!

Bruno fell to his knees with a thud, his old face under the mask was full of horror and confusion about what had just happened in that moment, he coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood and asked in disbelief, "You...... Be...... How...... What did you ......?? ”

"I've seen through your move, the so-called 'shaving' of that move is actually borrowed from the explosive power of stepping on the ground dozens of times in a very short period of time, and when you attack, you habitually move alternately in the direction of 10 o'clock and 1 o'clock; There is a brief hole in the left chest when using the 'Finger Gun', and it is impossible to move when using the 'Iron Block'......"

Elusa gushed about Bruno's flaws in battle, every point out made him deafening, after such a long mission, he knew for the first time that he had so many 'habits' and 'flaws' in him, and in the end, he even had the illusion that even if an idiot came to fight him, he could win.

Bruno fell to the ground with a 'bang', and when he fell, he muttered to himself: "I see...... My flaws...... Unexpectedly...... Is it so much......?!! ”

Wrong! It's not that there are many flaws in yourself! It's this woman named Elusa......

It's too strong!!

Since becoming an agent of CP9, Bruno never imagined that one day he would be defeated so quickly that he would be cut down with a knife before he even used his Devil Fruit ability.

Robin, who was not far away, was already stunned and stupid, she couldn't understand the principles and flaws of the 'Six Styles' at all, and she couldn't understand the explanation made by Elusa, but she was shocked in her heart.

In this world, how can there be such a strong woman?!

This is not relying on the ability of a certain powerful Devil Fruit, nor on some innate racial talent, but just relying on the skills of human beings such as observation, analysis, and combat experience, after just one round of tentative combat, they have found a way to defeat a CP9 so neatly, so that the results of the opponent's decades of hard training can be easily wasted like a joke......

Robin felt that he could suddenly understand why the magicians of Natsu and Gray were so respectful and afraid of Elusa.

"It turns out that she didn't show her real skills at all in the battle in the rain land......"

……

On the other hand, Spandam, who couldn't contact Bruno, turned around and called Luqi, Kagu and Kalifa, and after connecting, he directly sent the other party a random curse.

The three of them were annoyed to death by Kira coming to the door and pulling Esbagu to discuss his shipbuilding, and now they heard the scolding of their incompetent boss, Spandam, and the good mood of the day dissipated in an instant.

But there is no way, who makes them just subordinates, the task is supreme, what should be listened to still has to be heard, what should be done still has to be done, and finally after ignoring Spandham's abuse, several people probably got the following information: Nicole Robin's abduction plan failed; Bruno is in trouble; Take Nicole Robin back.

Taking advantage of the toilet work, the three-person and one-pigeon undercover team led by Lu Qi quietly opened a small meeting in a hidden place.

"Bruno actually lost to a woman?"

"What? Do you underestimate women? ”

"Oh no, I didn't mean that......"

"It seems that the five years of undercover time have made his hands and feet rusty."

"What do we do now? The order from above is to be sure to bring Nicole Robin back......"

"Do what you have to do! Since we can't do it alone, let's go together!! ”

After a short exchange, Lucci devised a new plan: first to retrieve Bruno, then to forcibly take Nico Robin through his Door Fruit ability, and finally to carry out the 'Shoot Esbagu Project', to force the blueprints of the 'Hades' from his mouth, and finally to leave on the sea train under the cover of the tsunami 'Akula Lagna'.

It's almost a perfect plan!

Unfortunately, he ran into trouble in the second step.

At the same time, the three of them asked Esbagu for leave on the grounds that they wanted to go back to their hometown for funeral, and then found Bruno in the alley through the team's contact number.

So far, Elusa actually retains the stereotype in Aslant in her heart, thinking that the world government should be similar to the Senate, representing the official organization, so after learning the nature of CP9, she did not kill in the battle, nor did she attack Bruno's vital points, so Bruno was only temporarily incapacitated before, and it was not seriously injured.

When Luqi and the others found him, Bruno had already recovered with his far superior physical fitness, and his wounds had been treated simply, and he was resting against the wall.

In fact, when they practiced the Six Styles before, the injuries they suffered were much more serious than this, like the one that Elusa slashed was nothing, and they could recover in a few hours, but they were idle, so they just bandaged it.

Seeing Bruno leaning against the wall with a loveless look, even Lu Qi, who has always been the most indifferent, couldn't help but feel irritated in his chest: "What's the matter? You actually lost?? ”

"No way, that woman is really strong!"

Bruno laughed miserably, and recounted the process of his fight with Elusa just now: "She only used one round to see through the principle of the 'Six Styles', and also found out my fighting habits, I am not an opponent at all......"

Kagu's eyes narrowed: "Combat habits? Why didn't I find out? ”

He is the strongest of all the members of CP9 except for Lu Qi, and he is also a veteran combat expert who can make the most of all parts of his body and all kinds of things around the battlefield to fight.

"yes, it's the first time I've known I still have such a thing......"

"No need to say anything superfluous, the new order has come down, if you have a good rest, cooperate with us and arrest Nico Robin."

Lu Qi interrupted the chat of several people and said lightly, "Fortunately, your Door Fruit Ability has not been exposed, and from this point of view, the success rate of our operation is still very high......"

"I see!"

Bruno had no objection, with his knowledge of Luci, this attitude was already very gentle, probably the heart honed by the past five years as a boatman......

……

At the same time, on the shore of the capital of seven waters, the undulating waves are blowing against this sea city under the blowing of the sea breeze.

At this time of year, the tides in the nearby waters become different from usual, more complete when you go, and more turbulent when you come, like a grumpy child brewing a temper.

Everyone here knows that this is a precursor to the imminent arrival of the gods of water.

However, when the tide came to a certain place, it was frozen into ice by a cold air, turning into a sea ice road only one person wide, and the bell jingled, and a figure appeared at the end of the ice road.

It was a tall man with an eyepatch on his head, humming a little song in his mouth, and riding a bicycle under him, slowly riding from afar to the capital of the seven waters.

This person is none other than the admiral on leave, 'Pheasant' Kuzan!

"Are you on this island? Nicole Robin......"
