Chapter 401 Ignoring the Defense Blade, Brook's Hyorinmaru

"Shoot him with the divine spear!" Usopp gripped the hilt of the divine spear with both hands, with the blade pointing at Kizaru. As soon as he spoke, the divine spear shot out.

In Kizaru's observation Haki, the divine spear also carried a threat, but he could clearly feel the attack method and landing point of the divine spear, so Kizaru calmly dodged the attack of the divine spear by turning sideways.

"A straight-line attack, three hundred meters?" Kizaru thought to himself as he watched the retracted divine spear.

"Shoot him, with the magic gun!" Seeing that his first shot missed, Usopp immediately aimed at Kizaru again.

"whoosh"

The magic spear was fired again, but this time the length was shortened by 30 meters.

"Oh my, the newcomers nowadays are so scary." Kizaru once again dodged Usopp's divine spear attack with a golden glow, but said.

"Shoot him, shoot him, shoot him..." Usopp used the power of the divine spear to attack Kizaru many times, but Kizaru easily dodged the attacks by turning sideways a few times.

"Hu, ha..." Usopp held the magic gun, panting and looking at Kizaru, "Shoot him..."

"Whoosh..."

The tip of the divine spear was still two or three meters away from Kizaru, but it stopped.

"How, how could this happen?" Usopp cried in disbelief.

"Did you notice? Each of your attacks is getting shorter and shorter." Kizaru looked at Usopp and said, "It takes some kind of energy to use this weapon. You've used up all your energy."

"That bastard Wang Hao tricked me. He didn't tell me that using the divine spear would exhaust the power of the soul so quickly." Usopp said with a look of being offended.

"So, have you ever been kicked at the speed of light?" Kizaru appeared in front of Usopp, with one foot raised up with a golden glow.

"Wow..." Usopp looked at Kizaru with horror.

"Revolutionary Dance·Charging Attack..." A figure appeared beside Kizaru, "Morning Song·Straight Stab!"

'receive……'

Kizaru dodged to the side instantly.

"Oh my, I almost had a leg chopped off." Kizaru said fearfully as he looked at Brook who flashed past him.

"Yohoho, it seems that I am the only one who can hold you back now." Brook turned around and looked at Kizaru with a serious face on his skull, "Sit upright on the frost sky, Hyorinmaru!"

An iron chain grew out of the tail of the Hyōrinmaru blade in Brook's hand, and he swung the blade, sending an ice blade slashing towards Kizaru.

"Tenkukumo Sword!" A lightsaber instantly appeared in Kizaru's hand, and he raised his hand to block the ice blade.

However, the ice blade was not blocked by the lightsaber, and passed through the lightsaber and slashed towards Kizaru.

"Whoosh..."

Kizaru instantly sensed something was wrong and dodged immediately, loosening his hand of the lightsaber in a hurry.

"Ah, my, I can't actually defend against the attack of that knife." Kizaru looked at the small piece of dust raised by the Tenzin-kun sword stuck in the ground, and then looked at Brook who was ready for battle.

"The old man was actually suppressed?" Zhan Taomaru turned his head slightly to look in the direction of Kizaru, only to see that there was a tear in Kizaru's clothes on his right shoulder, and a little blood was flowing out.

"The newcomers nowadays are incredible and scary." Kizaru said, crossing his arms over his chest.

"Flock of Birds Icicles!" Brook swung his sword and two icicles stood up in front of him, and a large number of ice spikes shot towards Kizaru.

"Yasakani no Magatama!" Seeing this, Kizaru hurriedly fired a large number of light bullets to block Brook's attack.

"How can he block it again?" Brook shouted in surprise as he watched Kizaru accurately block the ice spikes with light bullets.

"Sure enough, this is an ability of yours. Long-range attacks with domineering power can block your long-range attacks, but if it is close defense and connected to the body, there is no way to defend against your attack." Kizaru said, "Then, I know what to do..."

Kizaru instantly appeared behind Brook.

"As a vassal of the sword, as long as I get rid of you first, the sword will be insignificant." Kizaru's feet, glowing with golden light, appeared next to Brook's head.

"Prelude: Sword Attack." The tip of Hyorinmaru's sword appeared next to Brook's face at some point, just between Kizaru's feet and his own face, with the blade facing Kizaru's feet.

"Whoosh..."

Kizaru retracted his foot like a spring.

"Crash..."

The half-moon blade on the chain at the tail of Hyorinmaru's sword went around Brook's waist and shot straight at Kizaru from behind.

"Yoho..." Kizaru didn't dare to touch Hyorinmaru, so he had to distance himself again and dodge to the side.

"Sake Barrel Dance: Strike Again!" Brook moved his feet, and Hyorinmaru followed like a shadow and pointed at Kizaru again.

“Squeak, whoosh…”

But Kizaru just raised one hand, and a laser shot out from his fingertips, instantly hitting Brook's body.

"boom"

A violent explosion sounded behind Brook.

"Brook!" Usopp yelled.

"Ahaha..." Hyorinmaru's attack stopped, and Brook stopped three or four meters in front of Kizaru, trembling all over, looking down at his body with horror.

"How are you, Brook!" Usopp asked in panic.

"Ah..." Brook turned his head stiffly and looked at Usopp, "Fortunately, I'm dead, just a skeleton..."

I saw a hole burned in Brook's clothes at his waist, right next to his spine.

"Oh my, did I miss?" Kizaru said regretfully, "Compared to you, the sword is the biggest enemy, so why should I fight to the death with a sword?"

"Ah..." Usopp suddenly thought of something when he heard it, and looked at Brook with a puzzled look, "Why did your Shikai last so long?"

"Because, I have nothing but this bone and the power of the fruit." Brook said, "When I first touched this sword and activated the Shikai, I felt it was absorbing my soul power, and I was so scared that I quickly released the Shikai."

"That's right!" Usopp pounded his fist on his palm, as if he had suddenly understood something. "Your soul can float in the mist for a year without dissipating, only with the blessing of the fruit ability, so your soul power should be very strong, and you can easily maintain the state of Shikai."

"That's right..." Brook raised his head and looked at Kizaru seriously, raising Hyorinmaru again.

"Thorn..."

Liu Yuting suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

"Hmm?" Kizaru looked at Liu Yuting with a squint, "Did I lose again?"

"I can't help it. My reaction speed is not slower than yours. The difference between lightning and light speed in battle is not that big. My mind network's insight is not worse than your sight and hearing color, or even stronger. Although I have just started to learn the armament color, I have seastone weapons to make up for this. It is only a matter of time before I defeat you." Liu Yuting found a stone to sit down with a slightly tired look. "But, old man, you are really not easy to deal with."

"It's getting late. I have to finish things here quickly." Kizaru curled his lips, changed the subject, and looked at Brook.

"Ta Tata..."

Brook rushed towards Kizaru in an instant.

"Tenchukumo Sword!" Kizaru also took out a lightsaber on the spot and rushed towards Brook instead of retreating.

The two men passed each other, leaving a trail of black ice behind Brook and a golden light behind Kizaru.

"Hinage Sando..." Brook slowly put the Hyorinmaru back into the sheath, "Soul: Arrow Tail Strike..."

"Click..."

The Bingrin Maru was completely sheathed.

"Hmm..." Kizaru glanced at Brook behind him, but his body turned into light and disappeared on the spot.

"Tsk, clone..." Liu Yuting curled her lips.

"Pfft..."

Brooke fell to her knees with a thud, then fell face down on the ground.

"Brook!" Usopp exclaimed.

"Oh my, the newcomers nowadays are more terrifying and difficult to deal with than the other." Kizaru appeared beside Zoro, "Fortunately I dodged quickly, otherwise I would have been seriously injured if I was hit by his sword."

"How, how is this possible?!" Usopp looked at Kizaru who appeared next to him in horror and screamed, "When..."

"The one that was chopped by the skeleton was just Kizaru's shadow clone. I'm afraid he got the inspiration from me." Liu Yuting rubbed his forehead and said, "The old man is very bad. He stole my clone tactics."

Kizaru glanced at Liu Yuting, then lowered his eyes and looked at Zoro under his feet.

"The two people who tried to stop me have lost their combat effectiveness, so..." Kizaru raised his foot, and golden light appeared on his foot again.

"By the way, where is my son? Has anyone seen him?" Liu Yuting suddenly asked, "Why can't I sense his presence?"
