"It's useless, no matter how you struggle, the gap between you and me has doomed you."

Klockdahl's tone remained leisurely in the midst of the stormy attacks of the trio.

He laughed at the innocence of the three, and for a person like him with a natural Devil Fruit ability, the three's attack was just a joke.

It may be that for the other pirates, the abilities of these three newcomers are really good, so that they can defeat the cadres of the Baroque studio, but they have an essential gap with themselves.

"That's the end of the boring game."

Klockdahl was too lazy to waste any more time, the defeat of the cadres had a slight impact on his plans, and he needed to fill the loopholes himself at the last moment of the usurpation plan.

He raised his hand.

"Let me show you what true power is."

Klockdahl was confident that the trio would not survive his own attack.

"Desert Treasure—huh?"

He suddenly felt that his grip on the sand had weakened slightly.

"Wait—"

With a chill on his face, he looked up and saw countless raindrops falling from the sky in the glimmer of the morning light.

"It's raining? How can it be? ”

The thought only existed in my mind for a moment, and then it was diverted by a sharp pain in my cheek.

Luffy's fist slammed into his face, and his body, which was supposed to be elementalized, was now like a rusty machine, half a beat slower.

Klockdahl flew straight out and smashed his body into the dunes.

"Hit?" Luffy was also stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the attack that had been not working would suddenly have an effect.

"It's because of the rain, right?" Sauron looked up.

"Does water restrain his Devil Fruit abilities?" Luffy burst out laughing, "That's good luck." ”

"I'm afraid it's not luck." Sanji's eyebrows moved: "In a place like Alabastan, rain is not common, let alone rain at such a critical time in the place where we are fighting. ”

"Did the guy make a move?" Zoro grinned, "It seems that this rain ability is also the means he has prepared to deal with Klockdahl, right?" No wonder that guy is so confident. ”

"Is that so?" Luffy thought for a moment, then gave up thinking: "No matter! Let's fight Fly Klokdal first! ”

"Who do you want to fly?"

A sudden, dull roar came from the sand dunes, and the nearby desert began to shake, and the next moment, the boulder under the feet of Luffy and the others suddenly began to crack under the action of some force, until it completely turned into yellow sand.

The raindrops from the sky fell on the desert and disappeared without even dampening the gravel.

"Desert Sunflowers!"

With the sound of Klockdahl, the position where Luffy and the others were standing suddenly sank and turned into a circular giant pit with a radius of 100 meters, and the yellow sand in the pit continued to flow, like a suction cup, to swallow all the people standing on it and bury them under the yellow sand.

And the rain intensified the suction of the yellow sand, Luffy and the others suddenly felt bad, as their legs sank, the unstoppable restraint force made them unable to take a step at all.

"Did you want to use this method against me?" Klockdahl's wet figure appeared at the edge of the crater, and he looked down at the three people in the pit with disdain: "You guys secretly used dancing powder, so you let it rain in this area, right?" ”

"I don't know where you came from knowing that water can restrain me to some extent, but—"

"As I said, the gap between you and me is too big, even if you can't elementalize, a weak attack like yours won't threaten me at all."

With his rubber-like body, Luffy hurriedly pulled his feet out of the quicksand, grabbed Zoro and Sanji with both hands, and threw them towards the top of the giant crater.

Klockdahl sat back and watched all this, and did not stop it.

"It's useless, just give up the struggle like this, maybe you can save a lot of pain."

He raised his hand again and aimed it in Luffy's direction.

"Desert Sword!"

With the fall of his palm, the incomparably sharp invisible attack separated the earth, Luffy only felt creepy, and dangerously stretched out his arms to grab the gravel at the edge of the huge pit, and finally dodged at the last moment of the attack.

Only then did he turn around and see that the sunflower-like crater had been split in two by a bottomless crack.

"Did you dodge?"

Klockdahl smiled disdainfully as the Straw Hat Boy finally broke free of the quicksand and slammed his fist at him.

"It's too slow." As if anticipating Luffy's attack in advance, he dodged the opponent's fist slightly sideways, and then raised his hand to hold his arm.

"The more you struggle, the more desperate you become."

His ability activated, Luffy's arm dried up in an instant, and the moisture in his arm was instantly drained, and this dryness was still going along Luffy's arm towards Luffy's body.

Luffy was shocked, and his fighting instinct made him not retreat, but advanced, and pounced directly on Klockdahl, his right leg smashed towards Klockdahl like a tomahawk.

Klockdahl had to let go of Luffy's arm and dodge the blow sideways.

Although it was enough for him to resist the opponent's blow and completely suck the opponent into a dry corpse, it was almost a multiple-choice question for Klockdahl, and there were countless ways for him to defeat the newcomer in front of him, and there was no need to take another beat.

Although he doesn't want to admit it, because he pays too much attention to the development of the fruit's ability, his physical fitness is far inferior to this newcomer, and it is easy to suffer if he fights purely hand-to-hand.

Luffy got out of control, looking at his right hand, which was already like dry wood, and had no feeling at all, his heart moved, he opened his mouth suddenly, and under the power of the rubber fruit, his mouth opened to an exaggerated degree, and a large amount of rain was swallowed by him, and with the infusion of water, his arm finally returned to normal.

"It's dangerous!" He moved his fingers to make sure his arm was back in control, "It's good it's raining, otherwise it would be trouble." ”

"Sand crocodile, we'll do it again!"

Klockdahl's face darkened.

Although he didn't care, the rain did cause him some trouble, but it was only a minor trouble.

After having obtained the Devil Fruit for so long, he naturally had a way to target his weaknesses.

He easily dodged Luffy's attack again, kicked Zoro and Sanji with both feet, and then spread his fingers, and a small tornado sand storm formed in the palm of his hand.

"Rain clouds or something, just like you are as fragile as you, you just need to blow them away."

"Shalan!"

With a flick of his hand, the sand storm fell to the ground and grew wildly, and soon turned into a giant storm connecting the heavens and the earth, and the rain in the space was suddenly swept into the storm, and even the thin rain clouds in the sky were quickly swept away by the storm.

This natural disaster-like force brought the three of them to a halt.

And Usopp and the others, who were hiding farther away, were even more chilled.

This. Is it the power of the Seven Martial Seas?

They realized that they were too optimistic and far underestimated the strength of Klockdahl, and even with the help of the rain, the Straw Hats had lost all three major battles, and now Klockdahl was clearly serious.

Who will be able to defeat such an enemy?
