Chapter 1708: Battle for Route 1 (2)

Katakuri and Jin were caught off guard and were knocked back by this force, and they were even unable to raise their heads for a while.

Especially Jhin, his injuries were more serious.

His wings were so broken that they could no longer support him to fly. He could only cooperate with Katakuri on the ground to fight against Napoleon.

However, this made their situation even more unfavorable, and the situation, which was already at a disadvantage, became even worse.

Clang, clang, clang!

Sparks flew and the sound of metal colliding echoed in the air.

Napoleon seemed to be at ease facing the joint attack of Katakuri and King.

Not only did he easily fend off the attacks of the two, but he was also able to launch fierce counterattacks from time to time while defending.

As the one who had directly resisted Napoleon's attack, Katakuri had several wounds deep enough to see the bones.

These wounds continued to ooze blood, which was shocking and made people feel pity.

"Brother Katakuri!"

Just then, Smoothie rushed into the battlefield of the three people in a panic.

She had wanted to join the battle a long time ago, but Napoleon's domineering aura was too powerful and directly knocked her away, causing her to suffer some internal injuries.

"do not come!"

When Katakuri heard the voice, his expression suddenly changed, and without even looking back, he shouted loudly without hesitation.

In the next moment, Katakuri's body seemed to be ignited by a powerful force. His muscles tensed and strength burst out in an instant.

His fist was as fast as lightning and hit the shaft of the trident of Poseidon in Napoleon's hand hard.

Napoleon obviously did not expect Katakuri to suddenly launch such a fierce attack. The trident of Poseidon in his hand was knocked away by this punch, and he himself was forced to step back three steps before he could barely stabilize his body.

"No, Katakuri-nii, I'll help you!"

Smoothie's scream cut through the air; she couldn't bear to watch Katakuri face such a powerful enemy alone.

Although she knew she might not be a match for Napoleon, she could not just sit back and do nothing.

However, Katakuri's response was extremely harsh: "No, this is not your place to interfere, leave immediately!"

There was unquestionable authority in his voice, and it was obvious that he didn't want Smoothie to be involved in this dangerous battle.

But Smoothie did not obey Katakuri's order, she rushed into the battlefield without hesitation.

Just as she rushed towards Napoleon, Katakuri also appeared like a flash of lightning and rushed in front of Napoleon.

Katakuri's arms quickly deformed into a rice cake shape, covered with a layer of pitch-black armament Haki.

He swung this arm like a whip and whipped Napoleon hard.

Napoleon retreated again and again under Katakuri's fierce attack, but he did not give up resistance.

He kept waving the Trident of Poseidon in his hand, trying to block Katakuri's attack.

However, at this moment, Smoothie's attack also arrived.

The long sword in her hand flashed with a cold light, and she stabbed towards Napoleon's chest.

In an instant, after resisting Katakuri's attack, Napoleon felt the water in his chest constantly draining away.

His body seemed to be drained of moisture by an invisible force and became drier and drier.

"Ding!"

With a crisp collision sound, the sword in Smoothie's hand pierced Napoleon's chest like lightning.

However, unexpectedly, this sword failed to break through the armed color defense on Napoleon's chest, as if it had hit an indestructible wall.

Napoleon raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a contemptuous smile. His eyes were as sharp as a hawk, staring at Smoothie in front of him, sneering: "Since when did even this kind of trash dare to interfere in my battle!"

Before he finished speaking, Napoleon suddenly raised the trident of Poseidon in his hand. The huge trident head flashed coldly under the sunlight, as if foreshadowing the coming of death.

Without hesitation, he swung the trident down towards Smoothie's head. The blow was as powerful as thunder and carried endless power.

"Quickly open!"

Katakuri's face changed drastically when he saw this, and he roared like a loud bell, resounding throughout the battlefield.

At the same time, he quickly separated one of his arms, wrapped it around Smoothie's waist like a snake, and then used all his strength to throw her out of the battlefield.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, Napoleon's trident hit the ground hard, as if the whole world was shaking.

In an instant, a deep gully was torn in the earth, with dust flying and gravel splashing everywhere.

Katakuri's rice cake tentacle was also cut off by this terrifying force.

The moment Smoothie was thrown out, she was in a daze and had no idea what was happening.

It was not until she fell heavily to the ground that the severe pain in her body woke her up from her dream.

Napoleon's authority weighed on her like a mountain. Just facing him, Smoothie was completely distracted, as if she had lost the ability to think and act.

If Katakuri had not reacted quickly and rescued her in time, Smoothie would probably have been killed by Napoleon's spear.

All this is thanks to Katakuri's powerful Observation Haki. He can foresee the future for a brief moment and make the correct response at the critical moment.

Otherwise, with Napoleon's strength and speed, Katakuri would not be able to rescue him in time.

"How dare you hurt my sister!"

Katakuri's eyes turned red in an instant and his breathing became rapid, like an enraged lion.

The domineering aura on his body gushed out uncontrollably like a volcanic eruption, and the air around him trembled violently because of this powerful momentum.

"Go to hell!"

Katakuri was furious, and his sanity seemed to be swallowed up by anger in an instant.

His arms seemed to be under a spell and quickly turned into the shape of rice cakes, and were covered with a layer of hard armed color domineering.

Like a wild beast that had lost its mind, he attacked Napoleon frantically, completely ignoring his own defense.

The pair of rice cake arms kept changing shape under Katakuri's control.

Sometimes it turned into a huge mace, smashing towards Napoleon fiercely; sometimes it turned into a heavy hammer, smashing down with the force of thunder; sometimes it turned into a sharp sickle, chopping towards Napoleon at lightning speed.

Weapons of various shapes fell on Napoleon like raindrops, making dull thumping sounds.
