Chapter 530 Luffy VS Shanks

"So fast!"

The red-haired man's pupils suddenly shrank, and he instantly held Griffin horizontally in front of him.

"Boom!"

Unlike the previous sound of impact, the red-haired figure instantly flew backwards, leaving a trajectory in the air.

After flying for a long distance, the red-haired man wrapped the armament color around the Griffin in his hand and stabbed it towards the ground.

"Zi!"

The friction between the griffin and the ground produced sparks.

Seeing this, the red-haired man was stunned for a moment, then reacted.

For a moment, he even forgot that the hardness of the ground in front of him was not comparable to that of ordinary ground.

This made his method of relieving the force by stabbing with a knife somewhat impractical.

Without hesitation, the red-haired man raised the knife in his hand and stabbed it into the ground again.

The only difference from before is that Griffin is now not only entangled with the color of armament, but also the color of dominance.

This time, Griffin finally stabbed into the ground without any accident. The extremely hard rock caused the red-haired man to lose his strength before he flew far.

"Whoo~"

Pulling out the Griffin, the red-haired man shook his arms and whispered:

"This force is really strong. My arms are a little numb!"

After saying that, the red-haired boy looked up at Luffy who was laughing not far away, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He didn't expect Luffy to be so fast after transforming into Nika form.

If he had not foreseen Luffy's attack through his observation Haki and had not prepared to hold Griffin in front of him, he might have been hit directly.

The red-haired man waved the knife in his hand, looked at Luffy in front of him with burning eyes, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

"Interesting, the fruit that bears the name of God is indeed extraordinary!"

"This way I can have some fun too!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the red-haired man's eyes focused, and an extremely strong domineering aura burst out from him. Black and red lightning wrapped around him, making him look like a demon king.

"call out!"

The red-haired man swung his right hand violently, and a huge red sword wave shot out from Griffin and rushed towards Luffy in the distance.

"!!!"

Feeling the pressure from the red sword wave, Luffy widened his eyes and then quickly squatted down.

The whole body flattened like soft plasticine, the sword wave brushed past Luffy's cheek and continued to fly backwards.

After finishing, Luffy's body bounced back up and he looked at the red-haired man with a serious look in his eyes.

This type of Red Hair was the type he least wanted to encounter, because even though he turned into Nika form, his weakness did not change and was still slashing.

Therefore, Red Hair's every move was a bit troublesome for him. He couldn't just rely on the characteristics of the fruit to take their attacks head-on like he did with those striking moves.

For example, when fighting with Kaido, the power of Kaido's moves hitting him would be greatly weakened by his fruit, and in the end the damage caused to him was not actually that great.

But the red-haired guy’s slash is different. If you get hit by it, it’s no joke.

"Looks like we'll have to fight in close combat!"

Luffy murmured, then quickly rushed out.

He has some experience in dealing with swordsmen. Close combat is not a big problem for him, but if it is a long-range attack, he will be kite.

"Shhhhhh!"

The red-haired man swung his sword continuously, and waves of slashes rushed towards Luffy.

Luffy kept moving left and right to dodge these slashes.

Seeing this, the red-haired man couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and then the movement of swinging the knife in his hand suddenly accelerated.

In an instant, countless slashing blows were launched.

"!!!"

Looking at the dense attacks coming towards him, Luffy's face changed instantly, and his speed suddenly increased, constantly dodging the incoming attacks.

"Um?!"

Seeing that Luffy was able to dodge his attack even though he increased his speed, the red-haired man showed a hint of surprise on his face, but then he revealed a meaningful smile.

A knife slashed in a certain direction.

Luffy dodged a slash and suddenly found that another slash was coming in front of him. His pupils shrank involuntarily.

At this time, it was unlikely for him to dodge the attack as his speed was not yet up to that level.

However, Luffy quickly calmed down without any panic, and stomped his right foot hard on the ground.

next moment--

The ground in front of Luffy suddenly became as soft as plasticine, and then bounced up directly, forming a wall of earth between Luffy and the slash.

"Boom!"

The slash hit the earth wall, causing a loud noise, but it did not break the wall, only leaving a mark on it.

After a while, the earth wall fell down and merged into the ground again.

Looking at the not-too-deep mark on the ground, Luffy's eyes burst into a strong light.

If his fruit ability can affect the ground, then Xia Chen would be doing him a favor.

After all, the hardness of the rock on this ground is not comparable to the hardness of ordinary rock.

This is obviously more advantageous for him!

Thinking of this, Luffy couldn't help but laugh again.

"Hahaha……"

The red-haired man on the opposite side narrowed his eyes after seeing Luffy blocking his attack like this, and murmured in a low voice:

"Does the ground also have rubber properties under the influence of the fruit's ability?"

Before the red-haired man could think too much, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he kicked his legs hard and immediately left the spot.

And the next second after he left, the ground where he was originally standing suddenly bounced up, and the impact caused an explosion in the air.

Seeing that his attack didn't work, Luffy couldn't help but shake his head.

"Observation Haki is such a hassle!"

From the battles before to now, Luffy has also discovered that Red Hair's observation level is higher than his.

Although Red Hair's physique is not as tough and strong as Kaido and others, the problem is that he is small in size and therefore a small target.

Coupled with his powerful observation Haki, it would undoubtedly be extremely difficult for Luffy to hit him.

"But... this is what makes it fun!"

Luffy murmured softly, kicked his legs hard, the ground instantly sank, and then his body bounced up instantly.

It turned into a shadow and rushed towards the red-haired man in an instant...

On the other side, bursts of roars were heard from where Ben Beckman and Sauron were.

"boom!"

A gunshot was heard, and a bullet wrapped in the color of dominance and armed forces was shot out from Beckman's gun.

It is just a small bullet, but it carries extremely powerful power.

Feeling the powerful force coming from the bullet, Zoro immediately put the two swords in his hands behind him, jumped up, and slashed towards the shock wave formed by the bullet.

"Extreme Tiger Hunting!"
