My partner in One Piece is Esdeath

It was already midnight, and the sound of turning soil broke the peaceful night. This was the sound made by the devil crawling out of the ground.

These demons were gray-faced and had dull eyes. They wore relatively retro clothes, stretched out their hands forward, and walked slowly.

"Tu tu tu tu tu tu tu..."

The nearby specialized plants discovered the demon and began to attack it. Peas streaked across the sky and hit the devil's head hard. The devil immediately moved in the direction of the specialized plant after being attacked.

"According to the intelligence Mendel gave us, these demons move very slowly. If the navy comes to clear them up and use kite flying tactics, they can be solved with almost zero casualties," Annan said.

"I don't think so." Esdeath put away his sight, "Although they are very slow, there are too many of them. Our sight can cover most of Plant Island, and almost all of them have these demons within this range. Figures, without enough buffer space can easily be surrounded by them."

The specialized plants not far away were still outputting steadily, but there were too many demons. The ones in front had their heads smashed and fell to the ground, while the ones behind them stepped on its bodies and continued to move forward, finally arriving at the specialized plants. in front of.

"Crack, click, click..." The demon began to eat these plants.

There are fewer and fewer specialized plants in the wild, but the number of demons has not decreased at all. New ones are constantly crawling out of the soil and staggering to join the army of demons.

"Although I have been mentally prepared for it." Annan's mouth twitched, "But this number is too exaggerated. How do the people in the town persist until now?"

"There are different types of plants." Esdeath remembered that there were purple mushrooms everywhere in the town, "Maybe those mushrooms are more powerful than peas."

"Mushrooms are indeed more powerful than peas." Annan replied casually, "But now is not the time to talk about mushrooms. The specialized plants in the wild have been almost eaten by those demons, and their next target should be us."

As soon as he finished speaking, rickety figures began to appear in all directions.

"Now it seems that the priority of these demons should be specialized plants or objects that actively attack them. The second priority is the bright environment. They will actively move towards the glowing places."

Esdeath looked at the demon who was getting closer to the torch.

"Ouch..."

The demon lowered his body and struck at the torch. Until the fire was put out, then he walked to the next torch.

"Is this... a simple dislike of light?" Esdeath frowned, "I thought they were the same as moths."

"That's not right." Annan found a clue. "Aren't these guys capable of attacking people? Why do they only extinguish the torches here and they can't see us two big living people?"

At this moment, the demon extinguished the last torch on the ground.

The moment the fire went out, their eyes turned white, their appearance gradually became ferocious, fangs protruded from their mouths, they let out a low roar, and rushed towards the two of them.

"What's happening here?"

Annan pulled out Muramasa and separated the head of the demon that was charging towards him. After observing the surroundings, a ball of flame emerged from his left hand and he pressed it hard on the ground.

"The other side of the flower!"

Pillars of fire emerged from the ground one after another, surrounding Annan and Esdeath in a circle, forming a flame barrier.

At the same time, dozens of ice picks dropped from the sky and stabbed the demons inside the barrier to their cores.

"I was fine just now, but now I feel like I've been injected with chicken blood."

Annan frowned and said.

Esdeath closed her eyes and opened them suddenly after a moment, "There's a problem, all the demons are heading towards us."

"All come to us?" Annan said, "Isn't it possible? My flame is not bright enough for the demons on the entire island to see."

"Then it's not a matter of fire." Esdeath stepped onto an ice floe. "I'll go up and observe. You can clear the area."

After saying that, he flew into the air.

"Set fire to the mountain and sit through the bottom of the prison."

Annan sheathed Muramasa's sword, held the handle tightly, and a red light flashed in his eyes.

"Fortunately I can control the flames."

"Zheng~"

Muramasa unsheathed.

Annan inserted the blade into the ground, and the previous flame barrier instantly expanded outwards, crushing the demons outside, like a bulldozer, burning all the demons that passed by into charcoal and falling to the ground.

"How's it going?"

Annan shouted to Esdeath in mid-air.

"There are no more demons on the other side of town, and all the demons on the island are coming towards us."

"Will-o'-the-wisp!"

Annan kills an approaching demon.

"Damn it, it's all burned like this, how can you still move?"

Annan raised his foot and crushed the head of the demon crawling on the ground, and continued.

"There isn't one in town? Damn, there can't be anything controlling these guys. You can't say that these demons are exclusive and only attack outsiders."

"We don't rule out this possibility." Esdeath said with a smile, "It might as well be that all the demons come here now and catch them all in one fell swoop."

"That's easy to say." Annan said, "A large-scale attack can easily affect the town."

"Don't worry, I'm still here," Esdeath said. "If you make a mistake, I'll clean up the mess for you."

"Ok."

Annan held Muramasa with both hands, closed his eyes, and the blade ignited with blazing fire and plunged into the ground.

"Flowing blade like fire, blazing hell!"

Dozens of fire pillars emerged from the ground irregularly, gradually gathering and burning violently, emitting a huge explosion. For a time, Plant Island was ablaze.

Flames mixed with explosions gradually spread to the town.

Esdeath snapped her fingers, and a wall of ice lay between the two, blocking the flames.

At this time, Annan didn't take any care. He was operating with all his strength, expanding the scope to the entire Plant Island. All the accumulated flame energy was injected into the ground, and then turned into a pillar of fire to break out of the ground.

And the demons are not afraid of life and death, and attack Annan continuously.

This lasted for more than an hour, Annan took back his power, and half of the island was reduced to scorched earth.

At this point he could no longer sense a moving demon.

Annan straightened up, his eyes were a little dazed, and his head was dizzy. This was the sequelae of using the kenwense at full capacity for a long time.

"It's all burned." Annan sheathed Muramasa, "If there are still so many demons emerging tomorrow night, it's time to apply for a demon-slaying order to completely destroy this island."

"The demon-slaying order is too exaggerated." Esdeath stood down, "If you don't get hurt, I'll stay for another ten days, dig three feet into the ground and burn them all."

"Forget it, the New Year will be here in a dozen days. I have made a reservation at Balati, a sea restaurant in the East China Sea. I am just waiting to have the New Year's Eve dinner. I can't waste it here." Annan said.

"I asked who you were talking to on the phone before. It turned out to be an appointment." Esdeath smiled.

"I happened to see Bharati's advertisement in the newspaper at that time, and I just jumped on it," Annan said.

"Poluporuporu..." The phone in Annan's hand rang.

Opening the phone bug, the phone bug was wearing an insulating suit and couldn't see clearly.

"This is Annan. It's so late. Who are you?"

"Major Annan, this is Kurome, where are you now?" Kurome's voice came from the phone bug.

"The Iceman was just attacked."
