Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

Chapter 506 Tactical Inspection Team

The isolated Caribou was unaware that his "companions" behind him had already started crowdfunding what should be engraved on his epitaph to commemorate his brilliant yet cowardly life.

In the end, everyone decided not to carve anything and just leave a QR code of the video of his battle with Sauro.

I believe that in a few years, personal terminals will become popular all over the world, and the QR code system will also become popular.

At that time, anyone who passes by Caribou's tombstone will be able to use the QR code to learn about the most glorious moment of this guy before his death.

As for whether Caribou is at risk of survival?

Ha ha!

Anyone who has had the opportunity to work with Robin knows that Robin is a typical angel with a devil's heart.

Want Caribou to survive?

nonexistent!

……

……

Poor Caribou, he didn't know that he was moving towards death step by step.

But in the face of Caribou's ridicule, Sauro did not react much.

"I see, he's a natural ability user? It seems like we can only resort to close combat!"

Peng~

The surging blood and energy suddenly turned into dark armed color domineering, completely covering Sauro's fists.

The next moment, Sauro's huge body suddenly started running, seemingly not fast, but in fact in a flash he swung a heavy punch and came above Caribu.

boom! ! !

He clenched his fists and swung them downwards, smashing down like a huge meteorite.

Seeing this, Caribou finally stopped talking.

Faced with the terrifying attack of the giants, he quickly waved his hands, and a muddy swamp slurry gushed out from his palms like a bottomless pit.

“Swamp Barrier!!!”

A large amount of mud surged like crazy, and in the blink of an eye it completely enveloped Caribou and its surroundings.

Phew! ! !

The heavy punch did not stop at all because of the appearance of mud. Relying on the special attack attribute of Armament Haki against the nature type, Sauso smashed his fist directly into the muddy swamp barrier.

In an instant, an unusual pressure came from the surface of his fist.

The stuff in the swamp is not a Newtonian fluid!

The heavier the force of the blow, the harder it becomes.

This is a physical phenomenon that still exists even in the bizarre world of One Piece where physics does not exist at all.

So when Sauro's heavy fist slammed hard into the swamp mud, it also made Caribou's ridiculously muddy shield even muddier.

It was only after Caribou joined the Straw Hat Pirates that he realized that his fruit ability had such characteristics.

All I can say is that I suffered from a lack of culture.

But what Caribou didn't know was that he would not only suffer because of his lack of education.

Today, he will suffer again because his opponent is too educated!

"Huh? Is it a swamp?!"

Feeling the touch from his fist and everything he saw in front of him, Sauro's eyes flashed and he realized something in an instant.

As a person who has been hiding in the Elbaf Owl Library for nearly 20 years, constantly reading various books, he certainly knows the properties of non-Newtonian fluids such as swamps.

Although there is no Newton in the pirate world, Sauro suddenly changed his fist into a palm, then released all his strength, and just gently moved his palm wrapped in armed color domineering.

"!!?"

Caribou, who thought he had no chance of error, stared in disbelief at the swamp barrier that was being poked out of the sky and earth by a thick finger.

"How can it be!?"

He was shocked.

But the next second, the owner of the finger seemed to sense something, and with the help of the free space in the barrier, he suddenly bent his fingers and then slammed them towards Caribou's body.

Peng! ! !

It was like a heavy hammer falling from the sky, suddenly landing on Caribou's body, instantly squeezing and twisting his body.

The sudden attack made it difficult for Caribou to maintain the ability of the fruit, and the swamp barrier collapsed, turning into a pool of mud that scattered all over the ground.

Seeing the swamp barrier shattered, Sauro attacked again. He placed the palm that attacked Caribu directly on the ground, and clenched the other hand into a dark fist, smashing it towards Caribu's body.

boom! ! ! ! ! !

Under the terrifying force, the ground suddenly cracked into a spider web-like crack, and continued to extend rapidly in all directions.

The earth collapsed and dust and smoke rose up.

Under this powerful blow, Caribou's body was suddenly smashed into a meat pie, his tendons and bones were broken, and he was smashed into the ground covered with blood.

In the blink of an eye, Caribou, who had just been mocking Sauro, looked like a dead body.

The outcome seemed to have been determined at this moment.

"Um!?"

Seeing the sudden turn of events, viewers around the world watching the live broadcast on TV were all stunned.

what's the situation?

The people sent by the Straw Hat Pirates were defeated! ?

And it happened so suddenly?

It's not that they hadn't thought about the Straw Hat Pirates failing, nor had they thought about the battle ending.

But they never imagined that the two could be combined and completed at the same time.

After all, the two previous battles have already demonstrated the strength of the Straw Hat Pirates.

Whether it's Drake transforming into a giant dinosaur or Urouge transforming into a great monk, they both have the ability to end the battle in an instant.

But now...

"Is this the end?"

At this moment, even the giant formation showed a look of confusion.

According to the agreement, as long as Elbaf can win a battle, the Straw Hat Pirates must respect Elbaf's independent sovereignty and will always have plans to rule Elbaf again.

But, is all this happening too fast?

What they didn't expect was that... the winner was Sauro, the person they had least expected and was only used to make up the numbers.

what happened?

Was Moria careless and sent out a weakling?!

Shanks in the crowd blinked blankly, thinking that he had no chance to appear.

But when he looked up and saw that the Straw Hat Group on the opposite side was as calm as ever, and even saw a mysterious smile on Moria's mouth, he immediately realized that things were not as simple as he had imagined.

Seeing that Sauro was about to stand up, Shanks quickly shouted in alarm:

"Be careful, Sauro!"

In fact, such behavior is already suspected of cheating.

But Moriah, the commander-in-chief of the Straw Hat Phalanx, just grinned:

"Hey, it's too late!"

As he spoke, a small swamp suddenly formed on the cheek of Caribou who was lying on the ground.

Then, an opened bottle of good medicine slowly appeared from the tiny swamp, and the potion flowed down and fell into Caribou's mouth.

Under the effect of the good medicine, Caribou's broken body recovered visibly.

It sounds complicated, but in fact it was completed when Sauro retracted his fist.

So when Sauro saw Caribou again, he had fully recovered and directly launched the ground-type move "Digging", disappearing into the mud, leaving behind only a pool of strange dark purple mud.

"what?"

Hearing Shanks' reminder, Sauro's nerves subconsciously trembled.

But before he could react, he suddenly felt an unbearable pain in his palm.

He quickly looked at the back of his hand, and saw that his fingers were covered with tiny spikes that were stained with swamp mud.

The area where he had just come into contact with Caribou had now turned a dark purple color that was almost black.

Such a strong sense of déjà vu immediately made Sauro realize...

Was I poisoned by the same poison that Toori had before, which is unique to the Straw Hat Pirates?!

"Jie hahahaha..."

"Don't you think it's a little too late to realize it now?! Stupid pig!"

At this time, Caribou's figure slowly emerged from the ground in the form of mud and slowly condensed into his appearance.

Caribou's Pokémon attributes are Ground + Evil.

In the world of One Piece where attribute restraint is not obvious, this attribute combination is actually not that powerful.

But it happens that...

Caribou himself is the user of the Swamp Fruit ability.

Some ground-based moves can be matched with his fruit abilities.

For example, this digging skill is so common that it couldn’t be more common.

Originally, this allowed the Pokémon to gain the power to quickly dig through the ground and then hide in it, but when combined with the ability of Caribou's natural swamp fruit, it allowed him to transform into a swamp and move freely underground, which was extremely convenient.

Of course, if it was only this extent, Moria would never be willing to hand over such an important battle to him.

In fact, whether in terms of basic combat ability, fruit ability, or the use of Pokémon power, Caribou is not an outstanding one among many captains.

Cavendish, who joined the Straw Hat Pirates at the same time as him, had already mastered the ability to use the power of two Pokémon to evolve at the same time, just like Drake.

Even Hailding has completed the Pokémonization of a certain attribute.

Caribou, who had just reached the threshold of Pokémonization, should not have appeared on this battlefield.

But I don't know if this guy is like Buggy, with some kind of luck or something else...

When Caribou was loading the Pokémon template, he actually gained a very powerful and even enviable characteristic - the ground is full of poison!!!

[Features: Poison all over the ground]

[Effect: When it is attacked physically, it will release a large number of poisonous spikes in the direction of the attacker. Anyone pierced by the poisonous spikes will fall into a highly poisonous state.]

It was extremely poisonous. Dong Li had experienced it once before. It was a kind of severe pain toxin that even a glory warrior who had experienced hundreds of battles would find it difficult to endure.

It can be said that with this characteristic alone, Caribou is almost the father of more than 80% of the strong people in the world.

After all, in the world of pirates, physical attacks are always the most effective means.

Even bullets fired from a musket are considered physical attacks based on their characteristics.

In other words, even if someone shoots Caribou from eight hundred miles away, the poison-filled-ground effect will still be triggered, and a large number of poisonous spikes will be released from Caribou's body and shot at the enemy eight hundred miles away.

However... the poison spike is, after all, a physical item that can only poison after a sharp object pierces the skin. If the enemy is thick-skinned enough or has armor or armed color domineering protection, it can still be defended.

At this time, we have to mention Caribou's fruit ability - swamp!

As a natural fruit ability, although the swamp does not have as strong an attack capability as lightning and lava, in some ways, it is more powerful than lightning and lava.

Because the characteristics of swamps are storage, attachment, and flow...

In the past, Caribou simply used the storage capacity of swamp fruits and the infinite space of the swamp to equip a large number of combat props such as machine guns or tomahawks, focusing on the goal of surprise.

But using it this way is simply a waste of this fruit!

In fact, there are many people who have the same phenomenon as him.

So not long ago, Akane separated Reiju from the scientific research team and asked her to establish a new department based on the scientific research team - the Tactical Inspection Team.

The purpose of this department is to collect detailed information about the strong men under the Straw Hat, and help them find the most basic fighting methods based on their information.

After joining the Straw Hat Pirates, after many investigations and tests by the scientific research team, Reiju finally successfully customized a battle plan for Caribou based on his own abilities.

The tactic of directly feeding medicine into Caribou's cheek swamp just now was one of Reiju's achievements.

In this way, as long as Caribou prepared enough good medicine for his wounds, he would have countless opportunities to revive before he was clamped by seastone handcuffs or completely lost consciousness.

The original storage space combat method was not abandoned, but Reiju's department created a lot of new equipment for Caribou to use with his fruit ability.

However, most of the equipment was used directly to kill the target once it was taken out.

Although Caribou is stupid, he knows that in today's battle, neither the Straw Hat side nor the Giant side can suffer any real casualties.

So he didn't plan to use those combat equipment today.

But in addition to those equipment, his other combat plan is to utilize the characteristics of the swamp, controlling the flow of the swamp and releasing the poisonous spikes with the characteristics, so that they can still have a certain degree of controllability after falling into the enemy's body surface, and finally poison the enemy.

All I can say is that Sauro’s strength is just that.

He is indeed a top-notch figure among the vice admirals of the navy, but in the end, he is not even as strong as the ordinary Shichibukai. No matter how strong he is, how strong can he be?

So after Caribou recovered his strength, the first thing he did was to control the swamp poison spike that had already attached to the back of Sauro's hand...

Then let the swamp give a slight push, and we have the current situation.
