Chapter 622: John Haize Dies in Battle
"Ugh!"
Whitebeard in the distance sighed inwardly.
Although it is not stated explicitly, there is no doubt that Captain John has now been betrayed by his own crew.
Many big pirates would not accept betrayal.
But such things are normal on the sea.
But it is extremely rare among top pirate groups.
Now that the John Pirates have exposed this problem, it is particularly fatal to Captain John in this crucial war.
It is ridiculous that such a great pirate was betrayed by his core crew members.
These crew members are all strong men who have followed Captain John for many years.
Although it was a bit unexpected, it was also reasonable.
The other members of the Rocks Pirates were well aware of John's greed during his time.
Although he was generous, he was also extremely stingy. He would keep most of the stolen treasures for himself and hide them away.
With such a leader, how can the crew members follow him sincerely?
Especially in recent years, Captain John has gradually fallen from the altar.
It's becoming increasingly impossible to awe.
Facing the powerful enemy Isaac, Kaido was almost defeated several times. When he was unable to escape, it was his core cadres who restrained Isaac, allowing him to catch his breath from the fierce attack.
"Fire Disaster" Jhin, "Plague Disaster" Quinn, and "Wind Disaster" Hebbid, each of them rescued their boss in the first room and then held Isaac back.
Even if he defeated Kaido, Isaac's physical strength would be almost exhausted, and anyone could restrain Isaac.
In comparison, Captain John's situation was completely different.
In terms of interpersonal relationships, John doesn't have a good relationship with other members of the Rocks Pirates.
Captain John, it seems the curtain is closing.
Some people wanted to free their hands to provide support, but they were unable to do so. The enemy was also aware of this and burst out with astonishing strength to entangle them.
Especially the five members of God's Guard, who burst out with terrifying fighting power.
Each figure changed strangely, and the aura became even more terrifying.
A griffin with an eagle's head, a lion's body and wings on its back!
A giant troll!
A giant blue dragon surrounded by lightning!
A unicorn with snow-white body, a pair of wings and a single horn on its head!
There are also frost giants that exude cold air!
One mythical species after another appeared in front of everyone, causing people's faces to change drastically and feeling extremely shocked in their hearts.
For a time, the pressure on the pirate alliance was doubled.
The five members of the God's Guard are all users of the rare Mythical Beast Devil Fruit.
In this situation, even if he wanted to free up his hands to support John, there was no way.
The overall strength of today's God's Guard is much stronger than it was thirteen years ago.
What's the difference?
Generally speaking, the elite members of the God's Guard will not eat devil fruits.
Compared with relying on external forces, they prefer to rely on their own strength.
The Five Elders are a special case.
Of course, he could only eat the Devil Fruit after becoming a candidate for the Five Elder Stars.
Only the mythical beast devil fruits can catch their eyes.
After all, the enormous vitality provided by the mythical beast species, in a sense, has the effect of slowing down the decline in strength and prolonging life.
So, during the battle in God Valley, compared with those top monsters, the God Guard did not seem to be that powerful.
The Battle of God Valley was definitely an unforgettable shame for the God's Guard.
After all, the losses in the past eight hundred years are not as great as those in this war.
In the past, mythical beasts often symbolized longevity.
But after that battle, the meaning of the mythical beast species has changed.
In addition to longevity, there is also strength.
There are ten members in the God's Guard.
Except for the strongest commander of the God's Guard, Ferland Galin.
The nine official members are all users of mythical beast-type devil fruits.
Each of them possesses terrifying fighting power.
"The King of Violence" Kosa, "Werewolf" Quiro, and "The King of Hell" Blaze can still deal with it calmly.
The so-called outbreak is at most on par with them, a little more difficult to deal with, but not to the point of being tricky.
And what about Captain John?
The pressure he faced doubled because his enemies included not only a substitute for God's Guard and a top fighter, but also a full member of God's Guard.
The terrifying griffin was like the son of wind, controlling the strong wind, and slashing towards Captain John with one wind blade after another.
The ghostly figure avoided most of the wind blades!
John panted heavily and continued to struggle with the Ligaru mammoth's body.
And that member of God's Guard no longer wanted to argue with him.
He entered into human-beast form, launched a fierce attack on Captain John, and chased him relentlessly, making it impossible for John to escape and he could only passively face the enemy.
John's movements began to become slower, there were more flaws, and the situation became increasingly worse.
Having reached the limit, but still being able to continue fighting is a reflection of one's desire for life and tenacious willpower.
The silent, deadly attack came from afar, without anyone noticing.
A bullet easily cut through the air and locked onto the figure of the griffin.
No, its target was the griffin's head.
Sensing deadly danger, this member of God's Guard instinctively turned his face away.
But it was no use, the bullet seemed to turn, as if it had predicted his actions.
With its extreme lethality, it shot directly into his right eye.
The Griffin's right eye was pierced, and a bloody hole appeared behind his head.
Severe pain spread throughout his body. The bullet caused severe damage to his body.
Such a scene shocked another candidate of God's Guard and the top combat force of the World Government.
I rushed over to see how he was doing.
"Kill him first! Don't worry about me!"
The "Griffin" shook his head and stopped their actions. They had finally forced Captain John into a desperate situation. If they let him run away, it would be a complete waste of effort.
His eagle-like pupils looked a thousand meters away, towards the direction where the bullet came from, but strangely, he saw nothing.
He lost an eye and suffered a serious head injury, which had some impact on his fighting ability. Fortunately, the damage to his brain was avoided. He endured the pain and attacked Captain John again.
Even if there are enemies in the dark, so what? Captain John and his men are sure to be killed!
That’s right, “Death Gun” Leon is finally here.
Arrived at the bloody battle island alone and silently.
Captain John, noticing the dire situation, gave him an assist.
But it was useless! The Griffin had a keen sense and completely avoided the vital points. If he hadn't reacted, he would have died directly from his bullets.
"One!"
Leon muttered to himself, knowing that he couldn't save Captain John, so he just ignored it.
Every bullet must not be wasted, he has to find a more suitable target for assassination.
Everyone was fighting, and in Captain John's case, it was difficult to notice what was going on at such a distance.
In other words, Leon has not been discovered yet.
This was a good time for him to strike.
Take advantage of this opportunity to expand the results of the battle.
The cold "Death Gun" has been entangled by the flowing cherry blossoms, and Leon's pupils have become more and more indifferent.
Relying on the stealth ability of his combat suit, he has arrived at the core of the battlefield.
There are many targets around that can be attacked.
"Chance!"
Who would have thought that there was a ruthless gunman in the dark.
The three men who were eager to hunt down Captain John had no time to notify others.
In other words, they didn't notice that the battlefield was too chaotic, so it was normal for gunmen to hide in the dark.
The "Griffin" has determined the direction of the man in the dark. After dealing with Captain John, he will go and kill the villain who took away his eyes and could only attack secretly.
Captain John is now powerless to save the situation!
He realized who had come, but it was too late.
At this moment, his domineering aura had been exhausted. He was covered in wounds and had lost the ability to resist. The long sword in his hand fell to the ground.
Under the combined attack of the three, he closed his eyes unwillingly.
