Chapter 474: The black-robed leader shows off his power, and the Straw Hat Pirates fight to the deat

As they went deeper into the island, they heard a miserable cry. Following the direction of the sound, they found a huge prison. Many people were imprisoned in the prison, including the Nine Snakes' warriors.

"Our fighters are inside!" Hancock said excitedly.

They were about to rescue the soldiers when suddenly a large number of black-robed men appeared around them. These black-robed men were more elite than the ones they had encountered before, and their eyes were cold and resolute.

"You are finally here. Today is the day you die." said a black-robed leader.

Luffy looked at the black-robed man and grinned, "Humph, just you guys? We're going to take our ship and our partners away, and we're going to completely destroy this evil organization of yours!"

A new war is about to break out. Both sides are ready for battle, and the atmosphere is extremely tense...

The black-robed men came like a tide, and Luffy took the lead in attacking. He activated Gear Fourth, and his body became huge and strong, surrounded by red steam: "Rubber rubber? Ape King Gun? Destruction of the world!" He rushed towards the black-robed crowd, and each punch carried the power to destroy the world. The black-robed men were knocked back by his attack, and big holes were smashed on the ground.

Zoro was not to be outdone. He used the "Three Swords Style, Secret, One Great, Three Thousand, Great Thousand Worlds". The three swords in his hands turned into a huge blade light, sweeping the black-robed man like a tornado. Wherever the blade light went, the black-robed man was chopped into pieces, and black strips of cloth flew in the air.

Kuina and the Nine Snakes warriors worked closely together. Kuina used the "Tianyuan Sword Technique - Galaxy Starburst". Her sword shone like a brilliant galaxy. Every swing released countless sword qi, which shot towards the black-robed man like a meteor shower. The Nine Snakes warriors attacked the enemy with bows and spears. Their attacks were orderly and echoed with Kuina's swordsmanship, forming a dense attack network.

Hancock used her "Heroic Haki", and the powerful Haki swept across the battlefield like an invisible storm. Some of the weaker men in black robes were instantly stunned by the Haki, and the rest were also affected to varying degrees, and their movements became slow.

Ling Tian was looking for the leader among the black-robed people. He knew that only by defeating the leader could he effectively break the enemy's offensive. He used the "Spectral Phantom Sword? Ultimate Phantom", and his body turned into an illusory light and shadow, moving freely among the black-robed people. His sword swung as fast as lightning, and each sword could accurately pierce the black-robed people's vital points.

The black-robed leader saw his men being defeated by the Straw Hat Pirates and the Nine Snakes. He snorted coldly, raised his magic wand, and muttered something. Suddenly, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and black lightning struck from the clouds and shot towards everyone.

"Everyone be careful!" Zoro shouted, and he used his sword to block a bolt of lightning that was shooting towards him. The lightning came into contact with the blade, generating a strong electric current that paralyzed Zoro's arm, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted.

While dodging the lightning, Luffy rushed towards the black-robed leader: "Don't try to hurt my friends!" His body moved flexibly in the lightning without slowing down at all.

Kuina and the Nine Snakes used the surrounding terrain to avoid the lightning while continuing to attack the black-robed man. Hancock used "Sweet Sweet Wind" to create some pink heart shields to block some of the lightning attacks.

Ling Tian saw the right moment and rushed towards the black-robed leader: "Wind-breaking Slash? Sky-shattering Strike!" A powerful force burst out from his sword and slashed towards the black-robed leader's magic wand. The black-robed leader swung his magic wand, and it collided with Ling Tian's sword, emitting a strong energy wave.

The two sides were in a fierce stalemate. The shouts of killing, the roar of magic, and the clash of swords on the battlefield were intertwined and deafening. Blood flowed on the ground, and many people on both sides were injured, but the intensity of the battle did not decrease at all.

As Luffy approached the black robe leader, he was stopped by several black robe magicians. They jointly cast a huge magic circle, and a blazing black flame spurted out from the magic circle, burning towards Luffy. Luffy turned on the second gear and quickly spun his body, generating a strong airflow to blow away the flames. Then he rushed towards the magicians: "Rubber rubber? Bazooka!" His legs stretched out like springs and kicked the magicians away.

As for Zoro, after getting rid of the paralysis of lightning, he rushed towards the place where the black-robed people were the most. He used the "Three Swords Style Tiger Hunting" and swung three swords crosswise to form a huge "X"-shaped attack wave, cutting the group of black-robed people in two.

When Kuina saw a Nine Snake warrior being besieged by a black-robed man, she rushed over to rescue him. She used the "Tianyuan Sword Technique - Breeze Blowing Willows", and her sword was as gentle as the breeze, yet had strong penetrating power. She cleverly resolved the attack of the black-robed man, and then with a backhanded sword, she repelled all the black-robed men who were besieging the Nine Snake warriors.

Hancock then fought against several female warriors among the black-robed men. These female warriors were very powerful, and they attacked Hancock with various weapons. Hancock used the "Fragrant Kick", and her legs glowed pink. Each kick could accurately hit the enemy's weapon and kick it away. Then she used the "Sweet Sweet Wind? Charming Lock", and the pink love chain wrapped around the female warriors and bound them.

The black-robed leader saw his men gradually losing ground, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes. He took out a black crystal ball from his arms and chanted an ancient and evil spell. As the spell was chanted, the black crystal ball exuded a powerful dark force, and the air around it seemed to be frozen.

"Oh no! He's about to use his ultimate move!" Ling Tian sensed the danger and shouted to his companions, "Everyone gather together and defend!"

Everyone heard Ling Tian's shout and quickly moved towards him. Luffy, Zoro, Kuina, Hancock and the Nine Snakes formed a circle and performed defensive moves. Luffy covered his whole body with Haki, his muscles bulged, ready for battle; Zoro crossed his three swords in front of him, his eyes sharp as an eagle, ready to resist the upcoming attack; Kuina's sword glowed softly, forming a layer of protection; Hancock once again used the Conqueror's Haki to try to weaken the power of the black-robed leader; the Nine Snakes raised their shields and strung their bows and arrows, ready to counterattack at any time.

The black-robed leader raised the black crystal ball above his head, and the dark power surged out of the crystal ball, transforming into a huge black beam of light, shooting towards everyone. Wherever the beam of light went, the ground was torn apart and trees were uprooted, as if the end of the world had come.

"Rubber rubber? Sky Island rubber gun!" Luffy shouted and threw his strongest punch at the black light column. His arm stretched out like a rocket, and collided with the black light column with a strong impact. However, this time his attack only made the light column shake slightly, and the huge reaction force shook Luffy back a few steps, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
