Chapter 154: Monkey (Kizaru) chooses to call for help

"Tactical skills acquired!"

"There are too many strong people under my command who need to replace their devil fruits..."

After receiving the reward, Jello showed a cruel smile, and he couldn't wait to see the river of blood.

Suddenly, a golden light flashed, and a rain of light burst towards Jello.

"It seems that Punk Hazard has an unexpected guest today. What should I treat you with?"

"Eight-foot beautiful magatama!!!"

The signature lazy tone sounded, and the person who came was none other than Vice Admiral Kizaru, the Flash Man who had eaten the Obscene Fruit.

"Thank you for the gifts of nature."

When Zero saw Kizaru, his eyes lit up and he recited silently in his heart.

"How terrible, Borsalino."

Jello grinned and greeted him viciously, then he waved his right hand which controlled magnetism casually, and the metal shell of the experimental base rose from the ground and blocked in front of him.

“Clang clang clang….”

The sound of raindrops hitting the ground continued to ring out, and cracks soon appeared on the surface of the metal shells.

"You said it was scary when we just met. I don't know who you learned this from."

"That sounds really unpleasant."

Seeing that the attack was effective, Kizaru, who thought he was in the upper hand, increased his attack strength while not forgetting to use his face to launch verbal attacks.

"Does it bother you that your lines were taken away from you, Borsalino?"

While the words were tit-for-tat,

Jello increased the magnetic output control, and more and more metal shells were attracted and quickly combined into an extremely solid defensive barrier.

This defense left Borsalino with no chance to shoot.

"Hmph, Pirate Dark Dragon......."

"Hiding behind a turtle shell is nothing. Have you ever been kicked at the speed of light?"

Photons continued to condense towards the right foot, and Kizaru suddenly appeared behind Zero and raised his foot to kick Zero.

"Magnetism is also a force. Have you ever been kicked by an electromagnetic force?"

While asking this question, Jello covered his left leg with Armament Haki, using magnetism as an amplification force, and swept towards Kizaru with flashing silver lightning.

He had already predicted Kizaru's next move using the more advanced observation Haki.

"?????"

Seeing the enemy react so quickly, Kizaru was full of question marks, as this had never happened before.

"boom--!"

There are no techniques involved, just pure strength.

The kick was so powerful that it sent Kizaru flying backwards, where he turned into photons and disappeared in mid-air.

"He can't be faster than me. He must have predicted the trajectory of my attack."

"Your Observation Haki is superior to mine, maybe it can predict the near future!"

After being defeated by the blow, Kizaru quickly figured out what was going on.

A hint of dissatisfaction flashed across his face, the cloak of justice behind him fluttered in the wind, and his hands slowly clasped inward, continuously condensing photon particles.

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling lightsaber appeared in his hand, which was the "Sword of Ame-no-Kurosakumo".

"How terrifying, Pirate Anlong! This is the strength of a pirate with a bounty of nearly 1 billion berries!"

After the fully materialized Kizaru stabilized his body in mid-air, he covered his wrists with armament Haki and jumped to slash at Zero who was standing on the ground with even more powerful force.

"Interesting, have we finally entered the second stage?"

As Jello spoke, he used magnetism to control the metal to condense a mechanical arm on his right hand similar to the one in the original work, Zefa.

With a relaxed smile on his face, Jello jumped up and actively fought back, fighting for several rounds without losing the upper hand.

"Too weak."

Zero imitated Kizaru's usual speaking tone, which made Kizaru feel a little intoxicated after listening to it.

"Why does this lousy mouth speak so harshly? It's really annoying."

Kizaru couldn't think of a way to defeat the enemy for a moment and complained helplessly in his heart.

As the battle was tense, Jello slowly spoke again: "Why don't you use your light clone to sneak attack me, Mr. Borsalino, the terrible one."

Kizaru couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when his trump card was revealed.

"I don't think we've met before, have we?"

"How come you know everything!"

Kizaru rarely became serious and looked at the man in front of him as if he was facing a formidable enemy.

"I haven't seen you, but I know a little bit about you."

Jello's voice gradually became cold, and the dragon scale armor quickly covered his body, transforming him into a dragon-man form most suitable for combat.

The domineering aura surged like a tide, suppressing Kizaru who was facing him.

"Nani!!"

“This feeling…”

Under the suppression of the domineering aura, Kizaru only felt that he was placed in the deep sea, and even his breathing was hindered.

As Zero's cards were revealed one by one, Kizaru became unable to resist and his declining trend became apparent. His lightsaber was suppressed lower and lower, and even a deep pit was trampled out on the ground beneath his feet.

The current Borsalino is only an elite vice admiral of the navy, and has not reached the strength of the admiral in the original timeline. He is no match for Zero, who killed Aramaki and Magellan.

"Pirate Dark Dragon, what is your purpose here?"

After seeing the difference in strength clearly, Kizaru no longer felt lazy and stared at Zero's face very nervously.

"Nothing to do with you."

"Just know that if you stand in my way, you will die!"

Jello showed his white teeth, which looked like the devil's fangs.

"It's most likely Vegapunk!!!"

Without getting a direct answer, Borsalino could only think of this possibility.

Taking good care of Vegapunk is the mission assigned to him by the World Government. If anything happens to Vegapunk, losing his year-end bonus will be a small matter, and even the entire naval scientific research force will be in trouble.

Thinking of these terrible consequences, Kizaru had already made up his mind.

That is - "If we can't win, we'll go get help."

In Zero's sight, Kizaru, who was holding the lightsaber with both hands, changed his grip to the sword with his right hand, while his left hand was groping for something on his body.

"Oh? It seems... you have made your choice!"

Jero exerted force suddenly, and Kizaru's right arm holding the sword was broken, and blood spilled all over the ground.

Kizaru endured the severe pain of his broken arm and rolled on the ground, trying to keep as much distance as possible. He took out a Den Den Mushi from his body and called for help from Marinford.

"quick!!"

"Location is Punk Hazard, requesting reinforcements from headquarters!"
