Chapter 42: Severely Injured and Fierce Fighting

He looked calmly at the frost swirling around Arthur's body. The word "six" was written on the back of the haori.

He glanced at his subordinates who were frozen nearby, slowly drew the knife from his waist, held it in his hand and confronted Arthur.

"The Navy always likes to meddle in other people's affairs, starting wars everywhere and selling weapons. They cause the most casualties in the world, but they call themselves justice and the guardian of world peace."

"You look a little different from those navy men who are fighting and roaring. Why do you want to stand in such an executioner camp?"

Cooper, who was standing in front of Arthur, also felt the calm strength from him, just like the usual Arthur.

He is a strong man who fights with a knife.

It was alert to its surroundings and keenly observed that there were human corpses everywhere nearby, one falling every second.

At this moment, Arthur recalled Sakaski's question and smiled again:

“I will create my own experiences, and then pursue my own free life while becoming stronger.”

The moment Arthur finished speaking, the warrior in front of him had silently crossed in front of Cooper with a knife in hand.

The blade in the samurai's hand was covered with armament color, and it easily pierced through the frost swirling around Arthur. He slashed directly at Arthur's neck, wanting to kill him with one blow.

The movement was as swift as the wind, filled with endless murderous intent, and was captured by Arthur's observation Haki the moment the move was made.

The moment he succeeded, Tabian saw Arthur swinging the knife in his right hand, cleverly blocking the fatal blow, and then pressing it down hard on the ground below.

After losing the coordination of his body, Arthur could no longer control his strength. The tip of the blade in the warrior's hand pressed into the ground in front of him, leaving a groove.

The frost quickly condensed and froze in the crack on the ground, freezing the weapon in the warrior's hand so that he could not move.

"The sword is stuck..." When the warrior reacted, the right arm that swung the sword was already pressed to the ground along with the blade.

Puff-!

Arthur took the opportunity to slash diagonally from bottom to top in front of him.

The sword slashed through the sternum, breaking it altogether. The force of the sword was so great that even the Armament Haki Armor could not resist it.

"All the armament color is..." The calmness on the samurai's face was broken by Arthur's sword. He couldn't imagine that he was seriously injured in an instant by a guy who seemed to be dying.

The whole process took less than a few seconds, and the confrontation between the two was as fast as lightning.

"Captain Sissen!" The pirates nearby saw this scene and screamed in horror, looking at the blood spurting out of Sissen's chest in disbelief.

The enemy's blood splashed all over Arthur's face, almost dyeing his face red, and the blood seeped into his eyes.

"Cooper!" Cooper turned quickly, swung his eagle claws, and then kicked the warrior away from Arthur with a strong kick.

"Pursuit... What does a self-disciplined person need to pursue?" After Arthur severely injured the enemy with a knife, he began to talk to himself again: "It's just repeating the same day, doing the same thing alone, fighting with wild game in the mountains, and then selling aphrodisiac meat, living alone... for ten... ten years..."

Arthur's aura calmed down, and his body stabilized as his aura surged again. He stood still with the knife in hand.

The pirates went to support the samurai, their shocked faces filled with disbelief.

"Captain of Squad 6..."

"Is the gap between geniuses... so big?" As Xishen just stood up, he saw a white crescent-shaped slashing wave rushing towards him.

Before he and the pirates around him could react, all of them were pierced through by the slash.

Frost spread across the ground, and in just a moment it all turned into human-shaped ice sculptures.

"Hmm... cough cough..." Arthur used the power of the blade to quickly freeze the enemy. Soon, due to the wound on his neck, scarlet blood could not be stopped from coming out of his mouth and he started coughing violently.

Wave after wave of pirates charged at him, forcing Arthur and Cooper to fight in a desperate situation.

……

The eastern part of the island was shining with golden light, as dazzling as the light of salvation, and it collided with the vibrating force that had just appeared in the sea.

The island began to shake violently again.

The pirates under Whitebeard are heading towards the front line of the conflict between the Flying Pirates and the Navy.

A blue-flaming firebird wearing glasses appeared in the air not far from Arthur and shouted to his companions behind him:

"We seem to have arrived at the front line. We must do as Daddy says and try to make some big noise so that we can become famous!"

"Hahaha, Marco, you're only 12 and you're the commander of everyone, is that really okay?"

"Stop talking nonsense and go for it!"

A group of cadres, the oldest of whom was less than 16 years old, all rushed towards the front line where he was.

The deeper they went, Marco, who was flying in the air in the form of a phoenix, discovered that fierce conflicts were taking place near hundreds of ice sculptures below.

"Wait, there's something going on ahead!"

He hurriedly asked his companions behind him to slow down and led everyone forward to check the situation.

"An eagle and a naval officer... are beating up three officers of the Flying Pirates..."

"11th Division, 9th Division, and 7th Division's Animal Devil Fruit ability users..."

"Squat down, squat down, don't show your hostility or you'll be discovered!"

Everyone hid behind the lava rocks rained down from the nearby meteor volcano and watched Arthur fight against two captains, Cooper and another woman who looked like a black panther.

Swords clashed, Arthur fought two people alone, weapons flashed coldly, and the battle was fierce.

After watching the battle for a few minutes, the two captains were completely frozen in place by the power of the blade in Arthur's hand.

"Cooper!" (Arthur, save me!) Cooper was scratched by a humanoid black panther with his claws, his whole body was covered in blood, and there were even three scratches on his eyes.

He was beaten back repeatedly and called for help from Arthur.

Arthur, who had just finished a battle, was having difficulty breathing. He immediately ran towards Cooper with a knife in hand, but his foot suddenly missed and he fell to the ground.

He discovered from this battle that using the power of a blade was extremely physically demanding.

"If I can go back alive this time, I'll resign. Who the hell wants to go through so many life-and-death battles every day? Damn it!" Arthur used the coldness on the blade, aimed at the black panther that was biting Cooper and swung it.

The humanoid black panther dodged the cold air attack, and she immediately changed her target and rushed towards Arthur.

He threw Arthur to the ground, pinned him down with his limbs, and roared at him, saying:

"You monster! Can you still fight when you're injured like this? What on earth are your body structures made of?"

The roar sprayed saliva all over Arthur's face. She felt something was wrong when she saw the slightly raised corner of Arthur's mouth.

"I have to say, with such a curvy figure and a slender figure like a black panther, you must be very beautiful, right, Auntie?" Arthur said to her, and pinched the blade in his right hand fiercely:

"Ice Dragon, bloom on her..."

Before the woman could get angry or shocked, the blade in Arthur's hand suddenly became violent, and a large amount of cold air rushed towards her body, blooming brilliantly.

The woman, aware of the danger, discovered that a large amount of cold air was instantly poured into her body, and her beastly body began to freeze rapidly.

"I'm only 23 years old, who do you say is my aunt?!" At the moment when her body was about to freeze into an ice sculpture, she bared her teeth at Arthur angrily and swung her claws at Arthur's head.

The sharp claws left three scars on the left side of Arthur's face, and blood oozed out of them... Arthur gritted his teeth in pain, staring at her in front of him as she turned into an ice sculpture bit by bit.

"I don't like older people. If you're not an aunt to me, what are you?"

Arthur lay on the ground and rested for a few seconds, then turned to look at Cooper, who was covered in blood and lying motionless on the ground, gasping for breath just like him.

"Cooper..." (Sorry... I'm too weak... Arthur...)

"These people are all cadres. It's amazing that you can hold on for so long." Soon, Arthur stood up and walked towards Cooper, wanting to check his injuries.

A group of young and familiar faces ran out from behind the lava rock not far away.

Arthur looked at the familiar faces, roared to the sky, and rushed towards them with a knife:

"Fuck you, God! Open your eyes and look at the wounds and blood on my body. I don't believe that you have nothing in your eyes."
