#724 - I have a helper too! (2 in 1)

Ace's devil fruit ability does have a restraining effect on Crow's devil fruit ability to a certain extent.

However, it was not an easy task for him to capture and kill the crow in a short time.

After shattering the sound of the crow's wind in mid-air with one blow, the crow, whose real body had returned to the ground, also launched an attack on Ace in mid-air.

As a user of natural fruit abilities, Crow's use of devil fruit abilities is far more agile and skillful than Ace's.

The spikes made of coal slag were imbued with armed color domineering and shot towards Ace in mid-air.

At this time, Ace did not relax his vigilance just because he successfully blew up Crow's clone. Although his attack was successful, Ace felt that the opponent, as the commander of the Revolutionary Army, should not be so easy to deal with.

This caution in his heart also made him aware of the attack from the ground.

"When did he return to the surface?"

"Was it at the moment when the body exploded just now?"

Ace had such a doubt in his mind. During the battle with the opponent, his observation Haki had been locking onto the opponent's breath, but unfortunately, Ace did not realize that the opponent had escaped and only left a fake body in the sky to attract his attention.

Although he was confused, Ace's hands did not slow down at all.

Without using the power of the devil fruit again, Ace turned sharply, and using the momentum of turning, he swung the long sword in his hand fiercely towards the crow on the ground. A green sword light was released directly from the blade of the "Famous Sword Ace".

The powerful blade light shattered the coal needle that was rushing towards it in mid-air, and then continued to move forward, shooting straight towards the crow.

"Slash?!"

Although he is a devil fruit user, Ace actually used slashing instead of using his devil fruit ability to deal with his attacks, which more or less surprised Crow.

Among all the natural-type Devil Fruit users he has met, the vast majority of them tend to use the Devil Fruit's ability rather than their own strength after obtaining it.

However, Ace's fighting style is completely different from what Crow knows.

This is also due to the education system of the Navy Headquarters. Ace and Sabo were taught by Garp in their childhood, and during that period, they laid a solid physical foundation.

Back at the Marine Headquarters, Zephyr was also in charge of teaching the children.

Ace has always had a dream in his heart that he has never told anyone. He hopes that one day he will be able to deliver a blow that surpasses that of his father, the Pirate King, so as to prove his own worth and completely deny the path taken by Pirate King Roger.

It is actually difficult for others to understand the connection between the two. Why would Ace, as a son, try to deny his father? !

I'm afraid others simply won't be able to understand his thoughts.

But for Ace himself, it is a shame to have the blood of the Pirate King flowing in his body.

The biggest criminal in the world, the Pirate King who opened the Age of Discovery. For a kind-hearted person like Ace, he could never accept that his father was such a person.

As for whether Roger is good or bad in nature?

Naturally, no one in the Navy Headquarters would tell Ace about this kind of thing, but for Ace, judging his father only requires judging indirectly through what he has done. In Ace's opinion, his father has really made a great contribution to the chaos in this sea!

Because of this, Ace felt that he needed to atone for his father.

The famous sword in his hand was associated with the chaos that Roger brought to this sea. Now he wants to use this famous sword to bring peace back to this sea.

"boom!!!!"

Ace's slashing blow came down with a loud bang, and the terrifying force hit the ground, leaving a long groove on the ground.

However, the figure of Crow disappeared without a trace under Ace's attack.

Crow's devil fruit ability seems to allow him to perfectly integrate into the land. It is clearly the ability of the Coal-Coal Fruit, but he can actually achieve "earth escape" in such an alternative way, which is really unexpected.

"whispering sound"

Ace's figure quickly fell back to the ground, his observation Haki permeated around him, and he carefully sensed the breath of Crow. He didn't think that the opponent would die in such a slash. Although the two of them did not fight for a long time, Crow's strength had already made Ace take him seriously.

This may be the most powerful enemy I have ever encountered since my debut.

Ace had no choice but to deal with such an existence carefully.

"puff--"

There was an inexplicable light sound on the ground behind Ace. When he turned around, the ground was lifted up by some unknown force. At this moment, a piece of ground was like a long carpet, covering Ace directly.

“?!”

This strange attack method also made Ace's pupils shrink slightly. If this was also Crow's attack, then the opponent's devil fruit might have been developed to the level of awakening.

The elemental power may have been able to affect other substances around the crow.

"Fire Fist!!!"

The long sword was slightly retracted, and Ace's left hand turned into a fist and directly hit the "carpet" that was "rushing" towards him. The red fire column instantly melted through the incoming soil, and the fire column shot up into the sky.

"Hmm?" However, at the moment when the land was shattered by Ace, his observation Haki seemed to have captured something, and the long sword in his right hand was quickly raised in front of him.

“Boom—”

At the same time, a huge figure suddenly emerged from the edge of the "carpet", holding a steel fork in both hands, and attacked Ace directly.

Ace sensed the attack from the approaching man in advance, and the blade of the steel fork and Ace's knife collided with each other, making a crisp golden sound.

As the two's domineering auras collided with each other, a strong hurricane quickly spread out in all directions with the two of them as the center.

A powerful force was transmitted from Ace's arm back to his body. At this moment, his body flew back several meters uncontrollably. As his military boots rubbed against the ground, two thick piles of dirt formed at his heels.

The retreating figure stopped, and Ace maintained a delicate balance with the power released by the enemy.

It was only then that Ace had time to look at the man who had attacked him.

Unlike the person he had expected, the man in front of him who was attacking him with a steel fork was huge, probably over ten meters tall, a standard giant.

The man had his upper body exposed, a miner's hat on his head, a beard, and only a short floral skirt on his lower body.

Ace frowned at the outfit that was totally inconsistent with the man's gender. After a quick look, he recognized the other person's identity.

"Captain of the Western Army of the Revolutionary Army, user of the Push-Push Fruit, Mori!"

The Marine Headquarters had conducted a fairly in-depth investigation into the cadres of the Revolutionary Army. Ace knew that his enemy this time was the Revolutionary Army, and he had also done some research on the cadres of the Revolutionary Army, both in terms of their appearance and their devil fruit abilities.

He thought that meeting a general-level figure in the Peipei Kingdom was already a great achievement, but what Ace did not expect was that there were actually two general-level figures here.

"boom--"

The "earth carpet" shattered by Ace fell to the ground with a loud bang, and thick smoke and dust swept in.

When Mori saw Ace calling out his name, he actually threw a wink at Ace, and then when the dust swept over, he quickly withdrew his gun and his figure quickly disappeared from Ace's sight.

The crow that had just fought with Ace had disappeared, and Mori, who had attacked him, also disappeared without a trace under the cover of smoke and dust.

Feeling the situation was very difficult, Ace did not stay on the ground for long. He flew quickly into the air using the Moon Step and quickly escaped from the cover of the smoke and dust.

At this time, the ground was covered with smoke and dust, and the yellow dust fog had already obscured the battlefield.

With his vision blocked, Ace didn't want to deal with two army captain-level figures, Crow and Mori, on the ground at the same time.

Although Ace is full of confidence in his own abilities, with his naval education background, he also knows the principle of doing things within his ability.

Blind self-confidence will not only harm yourself but also your partners.

Although Ace's character is still straightforward, his educational background and experience also make his straightforward character more delicate, which Luffy does not have.

Looking down at the battlefield, Ace reached into his arms.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

After a while, a communication mushi appeared in his hand.

"Sabo, things have changed."

"The Revolutionary Army's Crow and Mori are both on the battlefield. I can't handle it alone."

"You let T-Bone stay on the warship, and you come help me."

Encountering two such tough enemies, even someone as confident as Ace started to prepare to call for help.

It's not because Ace feels he has no way of winning, he just doesn't want this battle to drag on too long.

The sooner the war ends, the less dangerous it will be for ordinary people.

If a quick resolution is possible, it is better to resolve it as soon as possible to avoid further complications.

"Raven and Morrie?"

"Both commanders of the Revolutionary Army appeared in the Kingdom of Compensation?"

"This is really unexpected!"

"Wait a minute, I'm coming."

Sabo's slightly emotional voice came from the other end of the phone. Just as Sabo finished speaking, a thunder suddenly sounded in the sky.

“BOOM!!!!”

A bolt from the blue came suddenly. A bolt of lightning shot down from the clear sky. In just one thousandth of a second, the lightning had already landed on the battlefield. As the lightning struck the ground, the thick fog was forcibly dispersed.

As the lightning flashed, it condensed into a solid entity. A young man wearing ordinary naval training uniform suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

"It's coming really fast!"

Ace's figure slowly descended from the sky. He glanced at Sabo who appeared on the battlefield and put the Den Den Mushi in his arms.

Sabo came very quickly, crossing the ten thousand meter battlefield. For him who possessed the Thunder Fruit, it was just a blink of an eye.

As soon as he joined the battlefield, the heart net combined with the observation Haki quickly covered the entire battlefield.

Sabo's perception ability is on the same level as Ace's. He can clearly capture the position of the enemy even if they are underground.

"Hiding from here and there"

“That’s really out of character.”

"Isn't he the commander of the revolutionary army?"

As he spoke, two lightning whips condensed in Sabo's hands. Sabo jumped lightly and swung the lightning whips in his hands towards the ground somewhere on the battlefield.

When the thunder exploded, two large pits were blasted on the ground by Sabo's attack. At the same time, two black shadows quickly shot out from the pits and returned to the surface.

Both Mori and Crow were forced to show up, and their eyes turned directly in the direction of Sabo, with a hint of suspicion in their eyes.

"The Navy's Thunder Fruit user!"

"Commodore Sabo."

Just as the Marine Headquarters knew the Revolutionary Army, the commanders of the Revolutionary Army also knew the powerful men in the Marine Headquarters like the back of their hands.

As the brightest new stars of the Marine Headquarters, Ace and Sabo are naturally also in their database.

The appearance of Sabo also surprised Mori and Crow. Originally, there was only Ace, and the two of them were confident that they could deal with him, but now there is another natural-type person, who is a powerful user of the Thunder Fruit, which puts tremendous pressure on Mori and Crow.

The appearance of Sabo also made the two army commanders want to retreat.

The appearance of these two young rookies, Ace and Sabo, also means that the Navy Headquarters is indeed paying close attention to the rebellion in the Kingdom of Pei-Pei.

Those natural forces of the navy are all marked as special-grade combat forces within the Revolutionary Army. Fighting with enemies of this level will often result in huge casualties. Therefore, within the Revolutionary Army, if it is possible to avoid fighting with enemies of this level, it will be avoided as much as possible.

Obviously, the fighting power possessed by Ace and Sabo has already made the Crows of Mori River feel very fearful.

One fire, the other thunder.

If these two nature-type warriors go all out, except for a limited number of people in the revolutionary army, the entire revolutionary army of the Peipei Kingdom will probably not be spared.

Crow and Mori looked at each other and saw the intention of retreat in each other's eyes. It was not because they were afraid of fighting each other, but because it was not worth it. Forced confrontation would not do any good for the revolutionary army.

Of course, the most crucial factor is that Ace and Sabo are strong enough. If they were ordinary navy officers, they would have been captured and killed by Mori and Crow by now.

“Boom—”

There was a roar of thunder in the sky, and just as the thunder sounded, Crow and Mori both shouted loudly:

"Walk!!"

In an instant, one of them drilled into the ground, and the other figure exploded and turned into countless crows that flew away in all directions.

The crow was indeed fast enough, but Mori was a bit slow. As a bolt of lightning struck, Mori was hit directly by the lightning.
