Chapter 404
The fires all over the town went out at the same time, as if by appointment.
The whole process was short and silent.
The light source suddenly disappeared.
There was still a hint of warmth in the night air.
This is the heat left over from the previous fire.
However, at this moment, the captain who found the basement in the dilapidated building did not feel the slightest enthusiasm.
Yes, it's just a chill that goes deep into the bone marrow.
He witnessed the process of the fire being extinguished with his own eyes. For him, it was undoubtedly a scene full of visual shock.
And, hundreds of subordinates rushed into the dilapidated building in front of them, but there was no sound at all.
"What the hell...what's going on..."
The captain turned his head mechanically and looked at the entrance of the dark dilapidated building.
The darkness that can't be seen to the end is like a huge mouth of the abyss that chooses people to devour.
In this way, the scenes that could not be explained by common sense, turned into bursts of icy chills, rampaging in the captain's body.
The scalp is numb and the whole body is cold.
This is the captain's true feelings at the moment.
He knew that this was a spiritual fear brought about by a long-lost fear.
He just stared blankly at the dark entrance of the dilapidated building.
In a trance, I always felt that the dark entrance was a vortex, sucking his consciousness into it.
He wanted to go in to check the situation, but he didn't have the courage to take a step.
At the same time, perhaps because of the deepening fear, the chill inside and outside the body became more and more obvious, and it felt like even the blood began to freeze.
Frightened, the captain suddenly thought that if he didn't go in to check the situation, he could shout outside to see if he could get a response.
Thinking of this, he opened his mouth.
"..."
But no sound came out.
He suddenly found himself speechless, and even his thoughts began to become sluggish.
Looking at the entrance of the dilapidated building, it only felt darker.
"Ah la la..."
Aokiji put his hands in his pockets, turned his back to the captain who had turned into an ice sculpture, and looked up at the sky above Dressrosa town.
There, in the sky, stood a man who could not be forgotten as long as he saw it.
That was his captain, Baka D. Maud.
Aokiji stared at Maud silently, and only withdrew his gaze after about five or six seconds.
"Your 'happy hour' will end here."
Aokiji looked back and didn't realize until the end that he had been frozen into an ice sculpture of the captain, and immediately walked towards the dark street ahead.
Every step you take out will step out a layer of ice that exudes chills on the ground.
It's just that there seems to be a flame burning in his eyes under the sunglasses.
On top of a street building not far away.
Perona looked at the back of Aokiji walking towards the central street of the town, only to feel that the air around her was full of freezing coldness, and her body in a princess dress shivered involuntarily.
"Kuzanne, that idiot... If you catch this lady, hum."
She kept rubbing her shoulders with her hands to get the heat, Perona's round eyes stared at the green pheasant, who was walking away with the chill.
"But he should be fine."
Although the air was filled with the chill released by Aokiji, Perona could feel Aokiji's anger.
"Kuzan is angry."
A gentle voice came from behind Perona.
"Sister Jaya."
Following the sound, looking at the person coming, Perona smiled.
Jaya smiled and nodded at Perona, and said softly: "This time, Perona, you don't want to participate."
"what?"
Perona looked at Jaya with puzzled eyes.
Jaya didn't say much, but smiled and took out a plate of cranberry cake brought from the Terror Barque and handed it to Perona.
Seeing the cranberry cake, Perona's eyes flashed, and she quickly took the cake, instantly forgetting the idea of participating in the battle.
Jaya looked at Perona, who was happily eating her cake, and then looked at the back of Aokiji who was walking away in the distance.
"Not a single one."
In my mind, the picture when Maud gave this order suddenly passed by.
This is an order they are quite familiar with, and it is very applicable to this battle tonight.
Jaya's eyes opened slightly, revealing a ray of red light that was very conspicuous in the night.
Seeing and hearing color activated, began to search for the location of every pirate in the town.
After a while.
Jaya volleyed towards the building complex shrouded in the dark night ahead.
In the air behind her, there was a dense array of swords, swords, swords and axes.
Dilapidated buildings.
Hidden in the depths of the dark door, there was the sound of rustling footsteps.
A group of women leaning and supporting each other with fear floating on their faces walked out of the dilapidated building tremblingly.
As soon as they left the building, they saw an ice sculpture standing at the door, emitting cold smoke.
They barely recognized the ice sculpture, it was the man who opened the basement passage before, and their eyes couldn't help but tremble quickly.
"Like, like the pirates just now..."
There was an older woman with an incredible light hidden in her eyes.
Just now, a group of pirates rushed into the basement, staring at them with hungry wolf-like eyes.
Just when they were in complete despair, a force from nowhere turned these pirates into ice sculptures in an instant.
The sudden change shocked them.
"Look at..."
In the crowd, a woman with trembling arms pointed to the night sky.
Everyone looked up and saw the scene of Jaya flying with thousands of sharp swords, and they were all shocked.
In disbelief, they watched Jaya disappear at the end of their field of vision.
Soon, with a little moonlight, they noticed the presence of Maud again.
"He, they... are they here to save us?"
The women stared blankly at Maud, who stood motionless in the air, and murmured.
In the heart devastated by fear and despair, a ray of hope began to usher in a ray of hope.
The same scene played out everywhere in Dressrosa town shrouded in darkness.
The Maud Pirates came out in full force, and after extinguishing the fire, they began to kill many pirates who had done evil in Dressrosa town with the momentum of thunder.
The destructive efficiency of killing enemies has caused the number of pirates to drop sharply at a speed visible to the naked eye.
With the death of the pirates, the innumerable hiding places of Dressrosa walked out of the residents who looked confused.
"How can a wonderful performance be covered up by the night."
Above the night sky, Tezzolo's excited voice suddenly came.
"Come on, let the world's eyes focus here again, gold—"
"Karma!"
The last syllable of the passionate voice fell, and the sky shrouded in darkness suddenly burst into golden fireworks.
The dazzling light covered every corner of Dressrosa, instantly attracting countless eyes.
Everyone in Dressrosa looked at the sky with golden fireworks like a conditioned reflex.
Under their astonished or shocked gaze.
The fireworks that bloomed in the night sky were closing in quickly, turning into golden pillars that were heating up at high temperature and radiating light.
A large number of golden pillars criss-crossed in the air, like a large net covering Dressrosa.
The light of thermal energy released from the great net illuminated the town of Dressrosa.
And Tezzolo, who was dressed in a luxurious golden costume, stood at the top of the golden net, looking down at everyone below, and looked up at Maud, who was king in the sky.
"..."
Maud looked helpless at the movement that Tezzolo made.
He was given a golden throne-like chair when he had nothing to do with it. Now it's even more exaggerated, to make such a big noise during the surprise attack.
Maud shook his head slightly.
After getting along for a while, apart from other things, he could understand Tezzolo's style of action that he always had to make a big line no matter what.
"It's worse than expected."
Maud looked down at the town of Dressrosa.
Under the light of the gold industry fire, corpses and dried blood can be seen everywhere, as well as the wreckage of buildings that have been burned to darkness by the fire.
Thinking back to the last time I came to Dressrosa, compared to the scene in front of me, it doesn't seem to be the same place.
"No wonder Kuzan is so angry."
Maud turned his eyes and looked at Aokiji who was reaping the life of pirates.
Now as a pirate, the [justice] of this former admiral has not changed.
In his eyes, there is no one like this group of pirates who have committed all kinds of crimes in Dressrosa.
certainly.
On this point, Maud and Aokiji agree.
The pirates I see now are all damned people.
That's why he issued the order of [one not to stay].
"Where is the Dong Tata clan..."
Maud's eyes moved away from Aokiji, his eyes turned red, and he glanced at the town of Dressrosa.
After a moment.
His gaze was fixed on the Toy House building not far from King Dressrosa's Highlands.
above the sky.
The Dread Barque hovered silently.
The Straw Hats, Bonnie, and Violet and Rebecca, who were rescued by Maud, were all standing on the edge of the terrifying three-masted ship, looking down at Dressrosa, who was devastated below.
Violet and Rebecca clung to their clothes, their faces filled with grief.
The Straw Hats looked solemn and remained silent.
Only Bonnie didn't feel anything, even a chicken thigh in her left hand and a slice of pizza in her right hand.
"Hahahahaha."
Bonnie was chewing on the pizza, and with her eyesight, she could see that the members of the Maud Pirates were slaughtering the pirates that invaded Dressrosa.
"Hey, it's obviously a group of pirates..."
Watching a country that was about to be destroyed being saved by a group of pirates, Bonnie felt very uncomfortable, and she was a little jealous of this country named Dressrosa.
If her country could welcome such a group of people at that time...
Whether he is a villain or a pirate!
"Bah, it's really unpalatable."
Bonnie turned her head away and spat out the pizza she just ate.
Her reaction and actions could not help attracting the attention of the Straw Hats.
"What are you looking at?! Look at your eyes again!!"
Bonnie gave the Straw Hats a vicious look.
That bad manners look, really does not look like a normal woman.
Except for Sanji, who was red-eyed, and Luffy, who was staring at Bonnie's pizza and chicken legs and swallowing, the others in the straw hat ignored Bonnie's clamor.
Originally, the Straw Hats who were eager to become stronger also wanted to participate in this battle.
But their battle this time was directly thwarted by Lafayette.
According to Lafayette, a group of guys who don't even know how to "kill the enemy" should not join in the fun to save them trouble.
With Lafayette's lobbying, Maud turned down the Straw Hats' request to join the war.
After all, Lafayette was right.
In such a battlefield where the enemy is to be killed, the straw hats who can't "kill the enemy" can only defeat the enemy.
In the end, they have to make up the knife, and the more troublesome it is, the more troublesome it will be.
"Senior Zoro, where are you going?"
Bartolomeo looked at Zoro who turned and left.
Zoro didn't turn his head, and said calmly, "Training ground."
"But over there..."
Bartolomeo stretched out his hand towards Zoro's back, and the sound of restraint stopped abruptly.
because.
Sauron, who had the property of Luzhi, stepped on the air with one foot, and then fell off the terrifying three-masted ship and fell to the ground.
"what!"
Bartolomeo exclaimed: "Senior Zoro has fallen!!!"
"Um?"
Only then did everyone present notice that Zoro was falling to the ground.
Luffy was staring at the food in Bonnie's hand, not paying attention.
Usopp happened to be next to Sanji, and quickly said: "Zuoron accidentally fell, Sanji, hurry up and use the moon step to catch Zoro!"
"Don't worry, that green algae head won't die."
Sanji was staring at Bonnie, not planning to save Zoro at all.
In fact, Sauron really didn't need him to save him.
"..."
Usopp was speechless.
Only Chopper ran around in panic.
Robin looked at the panicked Chopper and covered his mouth and chuckled.
Like Sanji, she was not worried about Zoro's safety.
Again.
With the current height and field of vision, she could completely use her ability to weave a "flower" net before Sauron landed to help Sauron buffer his falling force.
at the same time.
The underground port of the Toy House.
Monet and the members of the Hundred Beast Pirates who were here finally heard the faint movement from outside.
It's a scream...
Although during this period of time, the screams from the residents of Dressrosa could be heard almost every moment.
But this time, it seems to be a little different.
Monet, who was about to torture the members of the Dong Tata clan, listened to the noise from the outside, his brows were subconsciously locked, and he looked at the stairs when he came.
The bad premonition from before resurfaced at this moment.
"I really envy those guys outside..."
A member of the Hundred Beasts Pirates hadn't noticed the difference yet, but thought the scream belonged to a resident of Dressrosa, and said with an envious tone: "It's not like us, we have to guard here day and night. These little people."
"yes."
When the other members of the Beast Pirates heard the words, they all shook their heads and sighed, and began to envy their colleagues outside who were enjoying the spoils.
Others are enjoying, and they are here to watch.
"Envy what?"
A voice suddenly sounded.
"Huh? You ask me what I envy? Of course... eh?"
The members of the Hundred Beast Pirates who were present followed the voice, and what they saw was Maud who had his back turned to them.
The reason why Maud can be recognized immediately is because of the unsheathed autumn water that Maud holds in his hand.
Looking at Maud who suddenly appeared, everyone present was first stunned, puzzled, then horrified and shocked.
Monet turned his head sharply and looked at Maud who appeared silently on the other side of the cage, his golden eyes shrank sharply.
The little people of the Dontata clan who were imprisoned in the beast cage all looked at Maud who suddenly appeared in front of the beast cage.
The atmosphere in the arena was obviously a lot more dignified.
Maud quickly glanced at the little humans in the beast cage, and his eyes paused on the hoarse voice of the screaming king of the Tata clan.
"so……"
Maud looked at the members of the Hundred Beast Pirates in front of him and said calmly, "What are you envious of?"
When the voice did not fall.
From the chests of the members of the Hundred Beast Pirates who surrounded the cage, they all shot a bloody arrow without warning.
It looked as if they were suddenly slashed in the chest.
"Uh?!!"
The members of the Hundred Beasts Pirates lowered their heads in astonishment and looked at the stab wound that suddenly appeared on their chests.
"when……"
"But, obviously I don't feel like I've been cut..."
"Puff tom, puff tom..."
Immediately after, the members of the Hundred Beast Pirates fell to the ground one after another.
After a second or two.
The only ones who could stand still in the arena were the calm Maud and Monet who couldn't hide his horror.
Inside the cage.
The little people of Dongdada either looked sluggish, or stared at Maud in a stunned manner.
What just happened?
