Chapter 116: Jiger vs. Red Earl

A solemn look emerged in the Red Earl's eyes. Under normal circumstances, he would not take a newly promoted general seriously, but now, the appearance of a fighter like Jiger would play a decisive role in the outcome of the battle.

Kong was also stunned for a moment because he saw the flames and wings behind Jiger.

But now is not the time to worry about these things. He just needs to know that the people coming are from his side.

This time it was finally Sora's turn to laugh. He looked at the Red Earl with an unpleasant expression and said with a smile,

"Redfield, do you understand the disadvantages of being alone this time?"

The Red Count said nothing, but his figure gradually became illusory. Seeing this, Kong's pupils shrank and he hurriedly tried to remind Jiger in the air.

But the Red Earl was so fast that before Kong could shout, the Red Earl had already rushed in front of Jiger and slashed Jiger's waist with the umbrella in his hand.

"Nani?"

Like those who encountered Kamui for the first time, the Red Earl had the same doubts.

Seeing this, Kong below first breathed a sigh of relief, and then sighed, saying that Jiger's move was really too shameless!

The Red Earl waved the blue umbrella wrapped with the color of armed forces in his hand in defiance of evil, at such a fast speed that it produced afterimages, but all of them hit the air.

Seeing that his attack was ineffective, the Red Earl immediately chose to stop and land. His physical strength could not afford to be wasted any more.

As soon as the Red Earl landed on the ground, Kong rushed over immediately and hit the Red Earl like a heavy chariot, knocking him back.

Before the Red Earl could adjust his body, a thick pillar of fire fell from the sky and instantly engulfed the Red Earl in raging flames.

Kong couldn't hold it in any longer. With a flame of this magnitude, he would have believed that Ziger was the user of the Flame-Flame Fruit, but Ziger was not!

call!

A burst of energy erupted from the center of the flames, forming an open space.

The Red Earl looked at the flames burning around him, and a few wisps of black smoke came out of his nostrils.

At this moment, he no longer had his previous elegant demeanor. The flashy red cloak had been burned to ashes by the flames, and there were several holes burned in his upper body, revealing slightly blackened skin.

He frowned and thought,

"Flame? Isn't this Black Dragon the user of the Dark-Dark Fruit?"

Soon, Jiger helped him confirm this.

Jiger spread his arms in the air, and endless darkness gushed out from his arms, gathering into a dark waterfall that rushed down.

The Red Earl had just experienced a baptism of fire, and then was swallowed up by the overwhelming darkness. However, compared with the power of darkness, the fire seemed much gentler.

When the Red Earl struggled out of the darkness, his body was already covered in blood and his eyes were full of fear.

Unlike common elements like fire, most people know nothing about the power of darkness. So even if the ability of Ziger's fruit has been made public, if you don't experience it yourself, you will never know how terrifying this power is.

For a strong man like the Red Earl, ordinary elemental attacks would find it difficult to break his defense, but just now, he almost died in the darkness.

The darkness contains a destructive force that is far beyond the ability of human power to resist. If the Red Earl was in his prime, he could have held on for a long time even with the flames burning him.

But if he was swallowed by the darkness, he would not be able to hold on for long before being completely torn apart by it.

Now the Red Earl felt as if his whole body was falling apart, and a trace of regret arose in his heart.

He was indeed too arrogant and underestimated the power of the giant navy.

Just dealing with Kong was enough to put him in such a mess, let alone dealing with Jiger.

The Red Earl, who has always been a loner, finally experienced the feeling of being isolated and helpless, and now he is in a desperate situation.

Even so, the Red Earl did not even have the slightest thought of escaping. With such a strong domineering Haki, the word escape did not exist in his dictionary.

The Red Earl straightened up, black and red lightning emanating from his body. He patted the dust off his body and said softly,

"Even if I die, I have to take someone with me."

As he spoke, he fixed his gaze on Sora.

Compared to a fully-stated Zig, Sora is definitely much easier to deal with.

Kong could also see that the Red Earl was determined to fight to the death. He forced himself to stand up, even though he was exhausted, and the terrifying Armament Haki condensed on his fists again.

Just as the two were about to fight, Jiger suddenly landed in front of Kong. He looked at the Red Earl opposite him and said without turning his head,

"Marshal Kong, you should take a rest first."

After saying this, the flame behind Jiger's neck went out with a whoosh, and the Red Earl also flashed forward at this moment.

The Red Earl was most proud of his speed, but this time before he could rush to Jiger, he was stopped by Jiger halfway. He widened his eyes and exclaimed,

"How is this possible? How can you be so fast? "

Not only him, even Kong was shocked. He knew very well how fast the Red Earl was. That was why it was so difficult for him to fight and he could only use his body to resist.

But now, Jiger has shown a speed that is no less than that of the Red Earl. Even if the Red Earl is in poor condition, this is still a very outrageous thing.

Combining the black wings of Zig and the flames behind his neck, a powerful race that had disappeared for a long time emerged in Kong's mind, that is, the Lunalia tribe.

As a naval marshal, Kong naturally knew a lot of secrets, such as some records about the Lunalia people: when their innate flames were actively extinguished, their speed would be increased by leaps and bounds.

In Kong's opinion, this race is simply the darling of God, and their talent is no different from that of someone who has eaten a mythical beast-type devil fruit.

The Red Earl had no idea of ​​this. Seeing his attack blocked, he used his skills again, trying to create distance and look for an opportunity, but no matter where he appeared, Jiger would follow closely.

Two figures, one red and one black, kept flashing and colliding in the space. The Red Earl became more and more frightened as the fight went on. It was really hard for him to imagine that there could be such a monster like Jiger in this world.

Jiger is only nineteen years old!

The Red Earl couldn't help but think, what would it be like if the 19-year-old him met Jiger? I'm afraid that even ten of him wouldn't be enough to beat Jiger!

Jiger was also marveling at the Red Earl's strength. After all, the Red Earl had just experienced a fierce battle, and it would be good enough if his strength could be half of what it was in his prime.

It is no wonder that the Red Earl can stand alongside Roger, Whitebeard and others. If he had not insisted on being alone, it would not be difficult for him to form an emperor-class pirate group with his strength.
