#453 - Chapter 453 Two Killing Gods
The guards' fear spread rapidly, and their gazes towards Jin, Kuzan, and Shanks were filled with helplessness and dread.
Even though they were the Holy Land's elite, once looking down on everything, at this moment, faced with these powerhouses capable of shaking the entire world, their confidence had long since collapsed.
They knew deep down that they were no match, a thought that had taken root when facing Jin, and now with two more killing gods arriving, this battle was a massacre from the start.
Some guards even began to break down under this suffocating pressure, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, their legs weakening, kneeling on the ground, desperately watching the two approaching.
Kuzan's gaze swept over these kneeling guards, his heart growing increasingly angry.
He knew that all of this was the Five Elders' conspiracy, and these guards were nothing more than pawns in their hands.
But even so, he didn't feel the slightest pity in his heart.
He stepped forward coldly, reaping their lives without mercy.
Towards these puppets who had already lost their minds, Kuzan felt not a trace of compassion.
And what about the Five Elders?
They still stood in the distance, coldly watching all of this.
Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro Saint indifferently glanced at the battlefield, as if the lives and deaths of these guards had nothing to do with him.
They were merely tools, tools used to exhaust the strength of Jin and his companions.
Even if these people died here, it would only be an insignificant sacrifice.
"Blackbeard, aren't you going to make a move yet?" Nusjuro Saint asked coldly, his tone still full of that lofty arrogance, as if everyone's life and death were in his hands, and Blackbeard was just an obedient dog.
Blackbeard's eyes overflowed with anger, and his gaze towards Jin was like looking at a demon from hell.
He knew that Jin's target was him.
Even with the Five Elders' promise in his ears, he couldn't completely calm down.
Faced with Jin's unparalleled sense of oppression, the fear in his heart almost devoured him.
Even the once arrogant and domineering him couldn't help but tremble all over at this moment.
However, Blackbeard had no way out.
He gritted his teeth, cold sweat dripping from his forehead, his eyes full of fear, but a forced smile hung on the corner of his mouth, "Zehahaha, Jin, are you in such a hurry to send me on my way?"
His laughter was stiff, even with a bit of trembling, his heart beating so fast it was about to jump out of his chest.
"......"
Blackbeard's laughter hadn't completely faded away when his smile froze on his face.
In the next moment, he only felt a tremendous force coming at him, and before he could react, a heavy fist had already slammed into his face.
"Bang!!!"
The sound echoed like thunder throughout the battlefield, and Blackbeard was sent flying horizontally like a kite with a broken string.
His body tumbled in the air, smashing through several thick stone walls along the way, and finally slammed heavily on the ground, stirring up a large cloud of dust.
The Five Elders' eyes widened instantly, so shocked that they almost lost their words.
They didn't even see how Jin made his move, only catching a glimpse of the afterimage of the fist lingering in the air.
This speed and power exceeded their imagination, and what was even more shocking was that Jin's seemingly casual blow was enough to send a powerhouse like Blackbeard flying.
"How… how strong is he?" One of the Five Elders was secretly shocked, and an unspeakable chill surged in the depths of his heart.
Blackbeard's body slammed heavily on the ground, and the intense pain made his vision go black for a moment.
Although his body was rubberized due to the power of the Rubber-Rubber Fruit, and the surface didn't seem to have many injuries, the vibration of his internal organs and the dizziness in his mind made him unable to stand still.
His head was spinning, and a huge sense of shock and fear surged in his heart.
"H-How is this possible…"
Blackbeard raised a trembling hand and touched his face, his eyes full of panic and unease.
He couldn't understand how he, as a great pirate, could be so easily knocked down?
And the power of that punch—even though his body was rubberized, he could still feel like his whole body had been crushed, especially his chest, as if it had been hit by a steel hammer, and the vibration of his heart made it difficult for him to breathe.
Blackbeard struggled to get up from the ground, his legs shaking, trying to steady himself.
He looked at Jin not far away, his eyes full of fear.
Jin was still standing there, his expression calm, as if the blow just now hadn't cost him any effort.
His hands hung easily at his sides, his gaze cold and ruthless, as if he was looking at an ant that could be crushed at any time.
"Zehahaha…" Blackbeard forced out a smile, but that smile was obviously panicked and hypocritical, unable to hide the fear in his heart.
He felt cold all over, cold sweat constantly dripping from his forehead, soaking his back.
But the Five Elders still watched coldly, they had no intention of helping Blackbeard, but instead stood quietly to the side, observing the changes in the battle.
Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro Saint frowned, seemingly a little disappointed with Blackbeard's performance.
"Is that all?" he murmured softly with contempt, his tone revealing undisguised contempt and disdain.
Although Blackbeard's heart was already consumed by fear, he couldn't just give up like this.
He knew that the Five Elders' patience with him was limited, and his only chance to survive at the moment was to show his value in front of them.
Blackbeard's heart beat faster, and his mind quickly thought of countermeasures.
He couldn't just passively take a beating anymore, he had to find a way to stall for time, and maybe even find a chance to counterattack.
"Jin… Zehahaha, do you think this is all my power?"
Blackbeard laughed in a low voice, trying his best to make his voice sound calmer, but the flickering in his eyes had already betrayed his inner thoughts.
He secretly mobilized the fruit ability in his body, intending to find an opportunity to counterattack, although he knew in his heart that this blow might not work.
However, Jin just glanced at him coldly, his gaze without the slightest fluctuation.
That kind of contempt and indifference made Blackbeard feel unprecedented humiliation and fear.
He suddenly realized that the man in front of him didn't take him seriously at all.
No matter how he struggled, in front of Jin, he was always just an insignificant little character.
At this moment, Blackbeard's heart suddenly shrank, and his fear finally broke out completely.
Jin didn't give him another chance to speak, his footsteps moved slightly, and in the next second, his figure disappeared again.
Only a faint sound of air being torn was left in the air, and Blackbeard's pupils shrank sharply, he didn't even have time to react.
"Bang!"
Another heavy punch, directly hitting Blackbeard's abdomen.
The power of this blow was even more violent, and Blackbeard didn't even have room to resist.
His body was sent flying again like a kite with a broken string, crashing into a stone wall in the distance and collapsing to the ground with a bang.
