Chapter 254 Then I'll use you to settle this score, three thousand great pirates!
Kizaru's gaze gradually sharpened, and a hint of coldness crept into his languid tone:
"Wow, this is really scary... Straw Hat guys."
"If I remember correctly, you guys caused quite a stir not long ago," he tilted his head slightly, "not only did you create an ancient weapon... " Pluton, and with it, blew up the Enies Lobby, a symbol of World Government authority …
"Such a crime... is utterly heinous."
An invisible pressure began to slowly spread from Kizaru's center.
Just as Law was about to say something, a deafening roar of shouts and chaotic footsteps, like a tsunami, swept in from the direction of the street behind them!
The sound grew louder and louder as it approached, filled with madness and greed, so loud that the ground trembled slightly.
Immediately afterwards,
To the astonishment of Nami, Lawn, and the others, they saw the main members of Straw Hat Pirates — Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Robin, Chopper, and Usopp —run into the relatively open area, panting and looking rather disheveled.
" Brother Law! Nami! Run!" Luffy shouted as he ran, his rubber arms reaching out to grab Chopper, the slowest runner.
"There are...there are so many people behind us!" Usopp's face was pale and his voice was trembling. "They are even more imposing than my eight thousand men!"
Zoro and Sanji stayed at the very back of the group, fighting and retreating, their faces extremely grave.
However,
Before Law and the others could figure out who was chasing Luffy and the others...
Like a flood bursting its banks, countless dark pirates, wielding all sorts of weapons, roared and howled, instantly surged into this area!
Their numbers were so great that they almost filled the surrounding streets, open spaces, and even rooftops. As far as the eye could see, there were countless heads and ferocious faces, and their numbers definitely exceeded three thousand!
After the pirates rushed in, they didn't immediately attack Luffy and the others. Instead, they stared with bloodshot eyes, scanning and searching around like mad dogs, shouting incessantly:
" Gin light! Where is that towering Gin light from just now?!"
"A treasure trove! It must be an incredible treasure trove of Huang Gin's!"
"I saw it with my own eyes! It's in this direction!"
"Where is Huang Gin?! Hand him over now!"
Obviously,
The blinding light that burst forth when Nami used the Gin shovel not only unearthed Kizaru, but also seemed to have attracted all the greedy pirates in the entire Sabody Archipelago!
They thought a tremendous treasure had been discovered here, and they all swarmed in like sharks that had smelled blood!
In a short time,
This relatively secluded area of Benn has surprisingly gathered together:
The newly "dug up" Admiral Kizaru, thousands of pirates, Straw Hat!
The pirates who were frantically searching for " Gin's treasure" finally refocused their attention on the two most conspicuous groups in the area after a brief fruitless search.
Straw Hat, and... that tall, thin man in a yellow and white striped suit and sunglasses.
"Wait, wait a minute!!"
A sharp-eyed pirate suddenly let out a scream as if he had been choked, his trembling finger pointing sharply at Kizaru, who had just been "dug out" from mid-air.
"You…you all look at that person! That outfit…that face…that…that's Marineford!" Admiral... Kizaru?!
That scream was like a ladle of ice water being poured into a boiling oil pan!
In an instant,
All the noisy roars, frantic shouts, and the sounds of clashing weapons... came to an abrupt halt!
Hundreds of pirates froze in unison, their gazes fixed on Kizaru in the direction the pirate was pointing.
Time seemed to stand still.
One second, two seconds...
When I recognized that face that frequently appeared in the Marine executive biographies accompanying newspapers and wanted posters, recognized that signature yellow and white striped suit, recognized that languid yet undeniably imposing aura...
boom!!!
A fear even purer and more rooted in Benn energy than the sight of Pluton erupted and spread like a virus among thousands of pirates!
"It really is...it really is Admiral!!"
" Marineford's top combat force... Kizaru!!"
"How could he be here?!"
"Run! Run!!!"
I don't know who shouted that first, but it was like lighting the fuse of defeat!
The pirates, who were just moments ago so aggressive and seemed ready to tear everything apart, now looked like rabbits who had seen their natural enemy, their faces filled with extreme terror and disbelief!
They no longer cared about Pluton or Huang Gin's treasure; only one thought remained in their minds—escape!
Stay as far away from that yellow monster as possible!
Turn around, push, stomp...
The chaos escalated instantly, but in a completely different direction than before!
The pirates cried out in despair, wishing they had two more legs, and fled frantically in the direction they had come from, or even in any direction, like the receding tide!
The mass exodus of thousands of people was both spectacular and utterly chaotic!
Kizaru looked at the thousands of pirates scattering and fleeing before him, a barely perceptible cold glint flashing in his eyes hidden behind his sunglasses.
He slowly raised his finger, picked at his ear, and said lazily:
"Yay~ Perfect timing! The mission to capture Sabo failed, and I was just worried about how to explain it to Mr. Sengoku..."
His gaze swept over the fleeing figures, as if counting lambs to the slaughter. "Looks like... it's you."
Before the words were finished,
He transformed into a dazzling beam of gin- colored light, instantly soaring into the air!
The light reformed into Kizaru's figure high in the sky, his arms crossed over his chest, and countless dazzling points of light bursting from his body.
" Yasakani no Magatama!"
As his indifferent voice rang out, the countless dazzling points of light instantly transformed into a dense barrage of laser projectiles, pouring down like a torrential rain!
Each shot contained devastating power, precisely covering the most densely packed area of the pirates' retreat!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom—!!
The laser beams, like an invitation from the Grim Reaper, mercilessly struck the fleeing pirates!
Flames from the explosions shot into the sky one after another, and shrill screams instantly replaced the previous cries of panic, with shattered weapons flying everywhere!
With just one wave of attacks, more than half of Benn's original massive pirate horde was wiped out!
The ground was charred black and riddled with shocking bomb craters.
"A monster!!"
"Run! Split up and run!"
