Chapter 72 - Destroying Bullet

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for triggering a new selection!]

[Choice One: Bullet is about to completely absorb a surrounding wall. Choose to strike with a heavy punch and successfully stop him!]

[Reward: Tremor-Tremor Fruit power upgraded to Lv. 5]

[Choice Two: Regarding Bullet's actions, disdain him and choose to ignore him!]

[Reward: Useful Weather Knowledge * 1]

[Choice Three: Deal with Bullet last and first kills all the Whitebeard Pirates' captains!]

[Reward: Armament Haki upgraded to Lv. 7]

Kill all of Whitebeard Pirates' captains first?

They are too dispersed on the battlefield right now, and Ace is still at the execution platform.

He couldn't possibly go there prematurely and execute him, could he?

Moreover, Bullet is currently continuously absorbing the surrounding wall with his Clank-Clank Fruit ability, and he's almost completely opened a gap.

With this thought, Renji's gaze turned to a certain spot. As he muttered a chant, Kurai in his hand trembled slightly, and then he slashed out.

Under the enhancement of Lv. 2 King of Curses, the thick and eerie Cursed Energy rapidly combined with Haki and swordsmanship.

Unlike Sukuna's Cursed Incantation enhancement effect, the dismantle Renji now used not only had greatly increased power due to the incantation but also had significantly greater speed.

Although dismantle was only Lv. 3, this almost instant slash was able to easily cut through the Haki defense on Bullet's robot surface.

At Marineford's port, a figure in a black cloak, Mihawk, had not taken any action since the war began, except for being affected by Whitebeard's tremors and making a move to dispel them.

His goal had shifted from his initial expectation and eagerness to fight Whitebeard.

Compared to Renji, Whitebeard clearly couldn't satisfy Mihawk.

Finally, his heavy-ringed eyes, upon seeing that dark red slash tear through the sky, revealed deep excitement.

"The power is still lacking, but the speed of this flying slash can be said to be first-class in the world."

Whoosh!

The dark red light bloomed in the air. Almost at the instant Bullet moved his body, the slash, primarily driven by dismantle, had already cut into the surface of the combined robot.

Armament Haki has always been Bullet's proud skill. His innate talent gave him a vast reserve of Haki, enough to support him in hardening his entire body with Armament Haki.

Moreover, the hardening level of Bullet's Armament Haki would not decrease in intensity even when it needed to envelop a massive body.

However, the moment he was struck by that dark red slash, his main body felt an unprecedented pain.

"Ugh..."

Bullet let out a low growl.

His eyes were filled with shock. That attack actually hurt so much.

Bullet, born in a war-torn country, had experienced various battles on the high seas, eventually being imprisoned in Impel Down. The torment he endured could definitely be described as inhumane.

However, compared to the pain brought by Renji's slash, the torment he received earlier in Impel Down was practically insignificant.

"It only hit my robot, yet it can transmit pain to my main body?"

In a flash of thought, Bullet, relying on his powerful battle instincts, forcefully controlled his Devil Fruit ability to rapidly complete a position shift within the combined robot just as the dark red slash was about to cut into his heart.

Even so, that incredibly fast dark red slash still left a scarlet bloodstain on him. Intense pain surged, almost causing his combined robot to malfunction.

Fortunately, with his strong willpower, he managed to stabilize the almost collapsing combined robot.

"That dark red slash... Captain Renji!"

"Did you see it just now? It looked like something dark red flashed by."

"So strong! It actually cut through the robot's defense in one go. That was a defense that even cannonballs couldn't break earlier."

Under the shocked gazes of the Marine soldiers, the dark purple vortex on the surrounding wall, which had been continuously expanding a second ago, abruptly stopped. After being struck by the dark red slash, the mountain-like robot's figure trembled and then came to a halt.

"Ugh... Renji, this little monster, is too strong."

In a pile of rubble, Momonga struggled to his feet. He was clearly in a lot of discomfort after being hit by Bullet's robot's punch.

In the judgment of Momonga, a highly experienced Vice Admiral of Marine Headquarters, Bullet's current display of combat power, in some aspects, might have already surpassed an elderly Whitebeard.

That's why almost all the Vice Admirals, working together, were defeated in the first instance.

But Renji, facing such a formidable enemy, was actually... going to suppress him?

As the elite Vice Admirals of Marine Headquarters were shocked, Renji, in the sky, clearly analyzed the combined robot controlled by Bullet through his Heavenly Six Eyes.

"Good hardness. And inside the robot, he can shift positions at an extremely fast speed to avoid damage." Renji said softly.

Then, a curious thought popped into his mind. Lv. 3 Dismantle was still too low level, but it was just a test.

He hadn't expected to kill Bullet with just the flying slash he had just used.

"Then let's try this."

Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue!

High in the sky, Renji extended his palm. A blue-white light containing Cursed Energy rapidly flew towards Bullet's combined robot.

At the same time, after the surrounding wall was lowered due to Bullet's continuous absorption by his combined robot, the pirates of the Whitebeard Pirates took the opportunity to charge.

"Quick! Hiding in the sea will eventually lead to being bombed to death by cannonballs. It's better to charge and fight with all we've got."

Countless pirates charged towards the gap in the surrounding wall created by Bullet, enduring the cannonballs.

"Jinbe, I'm counting on you!" Luffy's eyes were firm.

Jinbe looked at the man who had created many miracles before him and said, "Are you really going to do this? You might die, you know?"

"Don't worry, I won't die." Luffy showed a smile.

Seeing this, Jinbe said no more. In this top-tier war, to rescue Ace, he, too, had staked his own fate.

"Phase, Twilight, Eye of Wisdom."

Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue! Maximum output!

Whoosh... Whoosh...

The violent blue-white light flew rapidly. In the interval when Bullet, interfered by Renji's Cursed Energy, couldn't control his combined robot, it slammed into the robot's chest.

With Renji's chanting, Cursed Energy could be rapidly mobilized by him even from a great distance.

This was the power of the combination of the modern strongest and history's strongest, Lv. 5 Heavenly Six Eyes and Lv. 2 King of Curses.

Boom!

The terrifying gravitational force unleashed by Lv. 4 Blue shook even the massive combined robot created by Bullet. The astonishing gravity firmly held its body.

Then, under Renji's control, Bullet's combined robot was pulled off the ground by the gravity of Blue. Renji, seeing this, flicked his palm, treating it like a basketball, and threw it into the sea.

Splash!

The giant combined robot fell into the sea.

A large number of pirates charged at this moment to the surrounding wall, which Bullet had absorbed until it was only a few meters high.

Renji looked on, a smile on his lips.

In this gap, the endless stream of pirates pouring in, weren't they just becoming live targets for him?
