Chapter 724: The gap between people with special abilities! (2 in 1)

After all, the thunder created by the natural devil fruit is vastly different from the thunder produced by nature itself.

The roar of thunder resounded throughout the battlefield, and the lightning created by Sabo's devil fruit accurately hit Mori in the distance.

After the lightning dissipated, a faint green smoke rose from Mori's body. The next second, the giant's huge body fell to the ground with a loud bang.

But Mori's loss of composure only lasted for a few dozen seconds. After he came to his senses, Mori supported himself on the ground with his hands, slowly sat up, and then turned his head to look in the direction of Ace and Sabo.

Although Sabo's attack successfully hit the target, it did not seem to cause fatal damage to Mori.

Although Sabo's attack cannot be compared with the thunder born from nature, the power of the natural devil fruit is obviously not limited to this.

For Sabo, a lightning strike like that is just an ordinary attack that he can use at will, and it is not his ultimate weapon at all.

“Morrie!!”

"Are you OK?!"

The Northern Army captain Crow, whose body exploded into countless crows and fled in all directions a second ago, quickly condensed into a physical form next to Mori after realizing that his companions were under attack. While gently patting Mori's body, Crow also used his body to block Mori, looking at Ace and Sabo in the distance with a serious face.

In terms of devil fruit abilities alone, Sabo's Thunder Fruit ability is obviously much more difficult to deal with than Ace's Flame-Flame Fruit.

The appearance of Sabo brought pressure to Mori and Crow that Ace alone could not match before.

Just as Mori and Crow were concentrating, Sabo's body in the distance suddenly turned into a flash of lightning and rushed into the sky.

"boom!!!"

In an instant, another flash of lightning streaked across the sky, followed by rumbling thunder that exploded in everyone's ears.

Another bolt of lightning fell from the sky, and this time the target of the attack was the Northern Army captain who had already formed a condensed entity - Crow.

"Damn it, it's happening again!!"

The crow raised his head suddenly, and saw the flash of lightning in the sky. He couldn't help but curse. His body had already completed the elementalization while he was speaking. Before he finished speaking, the lightning had already penetrated the crow's body and hit the ground.

"Boom——" A big hole was blasted on the ground by the lightning that fell from the sky, but the crow that successfully transformed into an element did not suffer any substantial damage.

The flying coal slag gathered together again in an instant and once again condensed into the entity of a crow.

However, before the crow looked up at the sky, Sabo's figure had already appeared in front of him. An iron pipe with a bend, which had been infused with Sabo's domineering aura at this moment, was smashing towards the crow's head.

Sabo's body has merged into the lightning that just attacked the crow. While attacking the crow, he has also completed the displacement.

As soon as the entity appeared, it attacked the crows directly.

Like Ace, Sabo received systematic education in the Marine Headquarters. He knew very well the weaknesses of natural Devil Fruit users like Crow.

Relying solely on the power of the devil fruit can only suppress the superhuman Mori. People with special abilities like Crow still have to rely on domineering power to win.

"Go quickly, I'll cover you!"

Facing Sabo's attack, Crow raised his hands repeatedly to block. While blocking, he also roared at Mori behind him.

As a nature type, he has the opportunity to escape from the siege of Ace and Sabo.

However, if the huge Mori does not leave the battlefield in time, he will easily become the target of attack by Ace and Sabo.

It is true that Mori is the captain of the Revolutionary Army, and his level of domineering can be considered top-notch. However, Ace and Sabo in front of him are also top-notch warriors in terms of both domineering and devil fruit abilities. Although Mori is strong, there is still a fatal gap between him and them.

"clang!!!"

The water pipe infused with domineering power hit Crow's arm, and the sound it made was like the collision of weapons.

At this moment, Crow decisively gave up using his ability. He stretched out his hand to block the attack and then raised his leg to sweep towards Sabo's face.

At this moment, the two nature-type ability users actually started fighting.

"Hey!"

“Just right!!”

After just a few moves, Sabo suddenly grinned, gently squeezed the steel pipe in his hand, and dense lightning directly surrounded his weapon.

After slightly tilting his head to avoid the crow's attack, Sabo also attacked continuously. He danced with a steel pipe with great force. Lightning surrounded Sabo, forcing the crow who was fighting with him to not dare to take over easily and could only retreat and dodge.

After just one encounter, Crow was suppressed by Sabo.

But his appearance did give Mori a chance to escape.

After being struck by Sabo's lightning, Mori came to his senses and glanced at Sabo and Crow who were fighting. Seeing that his partner was struggling under the opponent's hands, he hesitated for a moment, and finally picked up the steel fork and stabbed towards Sabo.

Although Crow wanted him to flee, as the commander of the revolutionary army, how could he abandon his comrades like this? !

Mori was well aware of how powerful his opponent was, and that was why he couldn't leave Crow here alone.

Sabo, who was fighting with Crow, was obviously paying close attention to the surrounding environment. Whether it was his observation Haki or the heart net woven by the Thunder Fruit, he could accurately capture Mori's movements.

If the other party wanted to launch a sneak attack on him, then it could only be said that Mori had made a wrong calculation.

Swinging the steel pipe, Sabo forced the crow back, and then he stretched out his hand to meet the incoming steel fork and took it.

"Boom-"

Sabo pressed down on the steel fork accurately, without any intention of resisting it. After deflecting Mori's attack, he jumped lightly and landed on the pole of the steel fork, then attacked Mori's face directly along the pole.

While sprinting on the steel fork, terrifying lightning was released around Sabo. Even with the protection of Armament Haki, Mori could still clearly feel the electric current coming from the weapon.

The electric current was able to penetrate his Armament Haki protection, causing his body to feel numbness and pain.

"Since you are not going to leave, I will take you back to the Navy Headquarters for trial!"

This time, Sabo had no intention of holding back. He approached Mori, leaped forward, and slammed the steel pipe in his hand directly into Mori's face.

Mori's body was huge to begin with, and his movements were far less agile than those of a normal-sized human. At this moment, he was affected by the Sabo lightning, and his movements became abnormally slow.

Facing Sabo's attack, Mori had no way to make an effective evasive response. "Bang!!!!"

The blow filled with Armament Haki hit Mori's face solidly. While Sabo's Haki successfully penetrated Mori's body protective Haki, the electric current generated by the Thunder Fruit was instantly transmitted to Mori's body.

"what--"

At this moment, Mori, who had completely lost his defense, was electrocuted and couldn't help but let out a cry of pain. Then, his huge body fell to the ground with a loud bang.

This time, Sabo's electric current ran through Mori's entire body. All the nerves in his body that received electrical signals were disordered at this moment. Even though Mori still retained his independent consciousness at this moment, his body could not obey the commands of his brain no matter what, and he could no longer stand up and rejoin the battle.

Sabo's figure fell from the air and stood steadily on Mori's back. The steel pipe in his hand touched Mori's skin, and then his eyes swept towards the crow not far away. It seemed that he had no intention of continuing to attack.

"Morrie!!!!"

Crow obviously didn't expect that his partner could be subdued by Sabo so easily. Mori, who was also strong and domineering, couldn't even hold out in front of a young man like Sabo.

Seeing his companion being stepped on, the crow cried out but did not dare to get closer.

Sabo's attitude was full of warning to Crow. If he dared to get close, it would only take a moment for the other party to take Mori's life.

"Do you still have time to care about your partner?"

"Crow, you have no way to escape. You can suffer less if you surrender."

"If you continue to resist, it won't be as simple as just imprisoning you in Impel Down."

From the beginning to the end, Sabo never had any intention to kill these commanders of the Revolutionary Army. Driving these revolutionary soldiers away was the original goal of Sabo and Ace.

But the other party insisted on fighting, and the two of them had no choice but to fight against him.

Even during the battle, Ace and Sabo had no intention of killing anyone, but if Crow continued like this, even they would not have the confidence to control the trend of the battlefield.

Sabo was trying to persuade the crow to surrender, and Ace raised his sword to block the crow's way.

The two marines have formed a pincer attack on Crow from the front and the back, and the most fatal thing for Crow is that his partner Mori has also fallen into the hands of Ace and Sabo.

The situation took a turn for the worse, and at this moment even if Crow wanted to leave, he couldn't do it.

But it is absolutely impossible to let him surrender just like that!
"surrender?!"

"Haha, are you looking down on our revolutionary army?"

Crow's body began to disintegrate at this moment, and black crows shot out from his body, attacking Ace and Sabo at the same time.

"Stubborn."

Ace's expression darkened, and flames surrounded him.

Not far away, Sabo saw this and shook his head slightly, with lightning surrounding his body.

"boom!!!"

A loud explosion sounded from the battlefield in the distance. In front of the gate of the royal city, the royal city army and the revolutionary army that were separated by the fire belt all looked in the direction where the explosion came from.

No one knew what was happening over there, but they seemed to have a premonition that the battle there would likely affect all of them.

"Puff--"

At this moment, a black crow flapped its wings and fell towards the direction of the revolutionary army's formation.

Although the army leaders had gone out to deal with the attacks of Ace and Sabo, there were still cadre-level figures in the Revolutionary Army.

The flying crow landed on the arm of a fishman in the revolutionary army. When the other party saw the crow, after a brief moment of stunnedness, he quickly took out a blank piece of paper from his arms and spread it flat on the ground.

The crow perched on the fishman's shoulder seemed to sense something and landed lightly on the white paper. At the same time, its body quickly dispersed and turned into words.

"Quick! Go!"

The fishman Haku looked at the words on the white paper and his face suddenly changed. He could not take care of leading the troops to attack the royal city. He quickly put away the paper and shouted to the army behind him:

"retreat!!"

“Retreat quickly!!”

The fishman’s roar is loud, but how far can his voice be heard in this noisy battlefield?
Even though he, as a cadre, took the initiative to lead a group of people to retreat to the rear, there were still many revolutionary soldiers who were unable to receive the message of retreat, or some of them had no intention of retreating at all. In short, the revolutionary army's team was split at this moment.

Some people still remained on the battlefield, while others, led by some cadres, quickly retreated to the rear and left the battlefield at an accelerated speed.

In the blink of an eye, more than half of the troops of tens of thousands had left.

The part of the revolutionary army that remained on the battlefield also realized at this moment that something unusual had occurred. Reluctant to leave, they quickly launched a charge towards the royal city.

The engineers waved their shovels and put out the fire by filling the ground with earth, trying to open a road to the royal city.

But unfortunately, just as they were working hard for this, a beam of fire and a beam of lightning shot out from afar and landed on the top of the city wall of the Kingdom of Peipei.

Ace and Sabo, who had gathered their bodies, felt extremely depressed as they watched the revolutionary army frantically attacking the royal city.

They really didn't want to take action against these ordinary people, but at this moment, they couldn't ignore the orders of their superiors.

The revolutionary soldiers who were advancing madly in front of the city wall were ordinary people. Behind them, the soldiers and the people in the city were also ordinary people.

It is probably a big question whether the revolutionary troops will be able to accurately find their targets for revenge after entering the city.

In order to prevent accidents, it would be better to stop these people outside the city.

"Ace, come on."

On the city wall, Sabo whispered.

Ace nodded silently, and a strong domineering aura emanated from his body, suppressing the people in front who were preparing to attack the city.
