Chapter 306 The wind is blowing hard!

Shanks shook his thick neck after transforming into a half-dragon, making a loud cracking sound, and the electric arc formed by the domineering color kept jumping on his body.

The mythical beast fruit gave him stronger defense and recovery ability. In just a short while, his aura returned to its peak state.

Long frowned, sweat dripping down his forehead. Seeing that Shanks was about to attack again, he quickly spoke,

"Wait a minute! Captain Red Hair! There doesn't seem to be any hatred between us? This is simply a meaningless battle!"

Shanks slowly lowered his raised dragon claws. He looked at the dragon opposite with a smile and said,

"No point? No! You, a sewer bug, really disgust me. In order to prevent you from polluting the world, I must kill you!"

"Nani!?"

Long Qi's eyes widened. Since they met, Shanks had given him two titles.

"The lost dog!"

"Sewer bugs!"

Even though Long had cultivated his character over the years, it was completely worn out at this moment. As for forming an alliance, he no longer held out any hope.

Long's face darkened. He stared at Shanks opposite him and said coldly,

"Redhead! It seems that Newgate is right. You are just an arrogant little devil! You will pay the price for your actions today!"

(Long is sixteen years older than Shanks)

Shanks sneered.

"How dare Newgate call others arrogant? His broken ship should have sunk in the new era long ago, and you are such a troublemaker!"

Once again earning the title of "troublemaker", Long's face turned from black to blue. At the same time, a large amount of black clouds quickly arrived and soon covered the entire sea area.

Heavy rain poured down, and thick thunder was like silver snakes surging in the clouds.

The airflow originally controlled by Shanks also began to become restless, as if wanting to rush towards the dragon.

Shanks' expression remained unchanged. He raised his fingers slightly, and the air flow around him instantly calmed down like a docile cat.

He glanced at the doomsday-like environment around him, then looked at Long and said calmly,

"Fruit awakening?"

At this moment, the pupils in Long's eyes had disappeared, leaving only the whites of his eyes. He said in a deep voice,

"Red-haired, I admit that the power of the Blue Dragon Fruit is indeed very strong, but the time you have been a power user is still too short. Without awakening, you simply cannot... What!?"

Long's eyes returned to normal instantly and he looked at Shanks in disbelief.

Under Long's astonished gaze, a streamer of crimson flames emerged from Shanks' body.

Of course he knew what this meant, and exclaimed,

"The fruit has awakened!? This is impossible!!"

Although Long didn't know exactly when Shanks ate the devil fruit, he was sure that the time would not be long, not even more than half a year!

Because everyone knows that the original owner of the Blue Dragon Fruit is Kaido, and Kaido died not long ago!

As the flame cloud streamers appeared, an extremely terrifying aura burst out from Shanks, instantly turning a big hole in the dense black clouds, and sunlight poured down.

Looking at the dragon with a constipated expression, Shanks raised the corners of his mouth and said,

"You're right. I've only been a user of abilities for too short a time, and I'm still unable to control this power. So you better be careful. I won't be as gentle as I was just now..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a red light flashed in Shanks' eyes and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.

The next second, he appeared in front of the dragon and with one slash of his sword, he sent the dragon flying high into the sky.

Long controlled the strong wind to stop his rising figure. He covered the bleeding wound in his abdomen tightly and shouted loudly. Several bolts of lightning burst out from the surrounding black clouds and hit Shanks together.

Shanks opened his mouth and let out a dragon roar, and the attacking thunder stopped abruptly. Then it changed its target and hit the dragon, blasting it into scattered green airflow.

The celestial phenomenon caused by the dragon's awakening has now become Shanks's home court. He gritted his teeth, condensed his body, and immediately activated his domineering aura, turning one of his hands into pitch black.

Then, the elements of his arm transformed into a small hurricane. Only the black hand on top remained materialized and spun rapidly under the influence of the hurricane.

"Hundred-crack dragon fangs!"

Shanks smiled contemptuously and said,

"You like to add the word 'dragon' to your move names, but other than the name, how else do you have anything to do with dragons?"

As he spoke, Shanks took a deep breath, and the next second, a hot dragon breath mixed with red lightning spewed out of his mouth.

The red dragon breath and the green hurricane collided with each other. Soon, Long's hurricane-like arm was completely devoured by the dragon breath. He let out a shrill scream, and blood gushed out from the broken arm of his left arm.

Long clenched his teeth tightly, and his face turned pale as paper due to excessive blood loss.

At this moment, the winner was decided. Long endured the severe pain, turned around and turned into a hurricane to escape quickly. His decisiveness made Shanks stunned for a moment.

Shanks naturally wouldn't let the dragon get away like that, so he immediately chased after it.

The direction in which Long fled was where Yixiao and Beckman were fighting.

Yixiao's situation is not optimistic at this time. Even with the powerful devil fruit like the gravity fruit, his strength is still slightly inferior to Beckman.

Long yelled as he ran for his life.

"Smile! Go!"

Although Yixiao couldn't see, he could sense that Long was seriously injured. His heart sank, and he immediately activated the power of the gravity fruit to its maximum, releasing a series of circular purple gravity waves, which temporarily forced Beckman back.

Then, he appeared behind the dragon in a flash and said in a deep voice,

"Mr. Long, you go first, I'll cover you!"

"No! Yixiao, if you are dragged you will die!"

Although he said this, Long had no intention of stopping. In just a short while, he had already escaped hundreds of meters away with the wind.

As the commander-in-chief, he must always keep the overall situation in mind!

He is the big picture!

Yixiao had no complaints about this, and even turned around and released a surging gravity wave. Driven by the gravity wave, the dragon's speed increased again, and it completely disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The scene was just like when he was thrown out by Garp like a cannonball.

After doing all this, Yixiao blocked Shanks who continued to chase him. Shanks frowned and said,

"Get out of the way!"

At the same time, Beckman rushed over again, and with a smile he was sandwiched between the two.

Yixiao had already made up his mind to die, and he swung his sword forward resolutely.

It is a bit troublesome for a general-level fighter to fight with all his might.

Five minutes later...

Snapped!

Shanks threw the bloody Yixiao onto the deck. Beckman was standing beside him with his arms folded and smoke coming out of the muzzle of the gun on his back.

He took out a Den Den Mushi, and after the call was connected, Shanks asked, as if to take credit for it.

"Brother, do you want the fruit?"
