Pirate Catcher in the Rye

Boom! ! !

"Lord Snag——"

suddenly,

I saw where Charlotte Snag was, and hundreds of meters of flames exploded like a bomb, drowning both Iji and Snag into the sea of ​​flames.

Seeing this, the members of the BIGMOM pirate group suddenly exclaimed.

Even though Snag is extremely powerful and is one of the four generals of the BIGMOM Pirates, his body is still that of a mortal and his abilities are only superhuman.

Such a terrifying explosion would be difficult to withstand just by relying on armed colors!

"I'm distracted, Charlotte Snag!" Iji's body slowly condensed out of the sea of ​​fire, his tone as arrogant as ever.

Because of Armed Haki's restraint on ability users, there are always people in this world who ignore the horror of natural devil fruits!

but…

Regardless of the power of the ability itself, even a simple elementalization is enough to change the situation on the battlefield.

Just like now.

The Shashao Fruit is not just a simple strength bonus for Iji.

Because of his superhuman physique, he could control flames and even make them explode, while using his elemental advantage to avoid damage!

You are welcome to say,

No one in this world understands the power and use of fire better than him.

Because of the duel between BIGMOM and Hawkins, Snag was temporarily absent-minded and missed the best opportunity to evacuate!

"Cough cough~"

a long time,

A violent coughing sound came from the center of the flames. At this time, Snag was covered in bruises and many parts of his body were burned by the flames. His whole body was beyond recognition.

This is the most serious injury he has suffered since he was born. Even when he fought against other leaders of the Yonko Pirates in the past, he has never been injured like this!

On the one hand, his brothers and sisters take good care of him.

On the other hand, his opponents are all equally powerful as him, either the captain at the bottom or the flying six cells of the Beast Pirates!

"I will lose?"

"No...will die!!!" Charlotte Snag muttered to herself.

He has seen many brothers and sisters trying to come to support, but they were all stopped by the Hawkins Pirates.

Until now, no one has escaped from his opponent and come to him.

Including Katakuri whom he adores!

"Vinsmoke Iji...is indeed a user with the ability to burn the Burning Fruit...It's a pity...Mom will never lose..."

"Tread! Tread! Tread!"

Snag staggered over, his steps slow and steady.

The glory of the Four Stars does not allow him to sit back and die. As long as he still has breath, he will fight until the last moment.

"Whoosh—"

An afterimage flashed by, and Iji suddenly appeared in front of Snag, stretched out his right hand and grabbed his neck at an incredible speed.

of course,

This level is still within the observation range of Snag's Haki. Unfortunately, he is now seriously injured and his body can't keep up.

"so what!"

"Heh, are you going to burn me to death with oil? Or are you still able to use Armament Haki?"

In the past few years, Iji has seen many examples of people breaking through in desperate situations and turning defeat into victory.

This includes the battle between Hawkins and Doflamingo eight years ago!

But he didn't think Snug had that qualification.

The gap between the two is too huge. Most of the opponent's strength lies in the ability of the oil fruit, and this ability has no effect on the natural type.

not only that,

After the battle with Karas, he awakened his armed domineering energy. At the same time, his superhuman physique also improved to a higher level!

"To add fuel to the fire, your abilities will not only not help you defeat me, but will actually hurt yourself."

"The glory of the Yonko Pirates is indeed worthy of praise, but now, everything like this has become a burden..."

"The moment you are seriously injured, the first thing you should do is run away, instead of insisting on deciding the outcome with me."

"What you are heading towards step by step is not victory, but the abyss of death, idiot!"

Iji didn't understand Snag's persistence.

Although he himself is not afraid of death, with the awakening of his emotions, he understands the value of life more and more.

"Whoa!"

suddenly,

A layer of slick oil appeared on Snag's body, and Iji's arm slipped directly out.

Not only that, the oil and water flowed to the ground, and the entire ground suddenly became as smooth as a mirror!

Unfortunately, Iji with the ephemera device can fly, and these oils cannot limit his performance.

Of course, the purpose of these oils is not to target Iji, but to increase Snag's own speed with minimal force!

"I was indeed careless just now. As long as you avoid those explosive flames, you can't do anything to me!"

"This battle is not over yet..."

"From now on, your attacks can never hurt me at all, Vinsmoke Iji!"

Snapped!

Snag fell back to the ground, holding the long knife in his hands with both hands, ready for battle.

As one of the four generals of the BIGMOM Pirates, he is indeed not as good as Katakuri and others, but his strength is not that embarrassing.

It was just a moment of carelessness, and Iji's ability really restrained him!

"It's too late, Charlotte Snag!" Iji shook his head with regret.

If you go all out from the beginning, this battle will definitely be quite exciting.

Unfortunately, Snag was too arrogant and did not face his opponent at all. He was completely blinded by the amount of the reward!

"Chimera - Searing Hell!"

boom! ! !

I saw more and more flames spurting out from under Iji, the surrounding temperature continued to rise, and even the air was distorted by the heat.

As a modified person with a superhuman physique, his upper limit for using fire is even greater than Ace's.

With the combination of the two, even the temperature of the flame is suddenly increased!

Snag's ability is oil after all;

Even if the surface of the body is protected by oil with a very high ignition point, once it exceeds a certain limit, the body will burn.

"Boom!!!"

As if the earth was shattering, the flames that were several times more terrifying than before suddenly exploded, and the violent shock wave blew away all the surrounding pirates.

Thick smoke suddenly billowed from this battlefield, and the ground shook violently. The crumbling posture seemed to be sinking into the sea in the next moment.

at the same time,

A huge pit with a depth of tens of meters appeared where the two of them were. Above the hole, the flames were burning, and even the rocks were burned red by the flames, making a crunching sound.

It's like a volcanic eruption, making people's scalp numb!

You know, Fire Fist Ace died at the hands of Admiral Akainu.

This is almost universally known, and many people saw that scene over the phone.

but now…

Iji's flames clearly exceeded that limit and reached a level that could rival magma.

If you add the ability to explode, it would be a replica of Akainu!

The development of Devil Fruits is not a figment of imagination.

Even though the shapes and powers are different, in nature, the temperature of conventional flames is generally lower than that of magma, and every increase is extremely difficult!

From this point of view, Akainu is right when he says that Rockberry is the superior fruit of Yaki-yaki fruit.

In terms of temperature,

It is indeed his magma that is better!

"With your ability, there is no way to dodge such a large-scale explosion. The four generals of the BIGMOM Pirates can only do this."

"Then how long can you last?"
