Taoist priest, who is so popular in One Piece

If Luffy's previous body had the properties of rubber, it gave him excellent elasticity and ductility.

After awakening the power of Gear Fifth, Luffy can be said to know his own body very well.

Even if it is as small as a hair, Luffy can control it perfectly.

To put it simply, this is Luffy's unique, near-perfect [Life Return].

In the battle, he no longer even sticks to the single punch and kick moves.

Being able to launch attacks at will is Luffy's current fighting style.

At this moment, Barrett, who was standing opposite Luffy, once again increased his attention to Luffy.

That tiny body can actually possess both extreme softness and extreme hardness.

Such an opponent...

Barrett grinned and exhaled a breath of hot air:

"It makes me excited!"

As soon as the words fell, Luffy and Barrett disappeared again.

Bang bang bang bang!

The two seemed to have disappeared from this world, and each time their figures appeared it was only a brief moment when they were fighting.

In just a few seconds, the two collided in dozens of places across the island.

Each collision generates a powerful shock wave.

To those watching on the big screen, all they could see was the smoke and dust that occasionally rose up on the island and the huge deep pit.

-

"I say, you can't excite me at all."

On the fan-shaped island in Division 3.

Bai Ye stood in the air, looking at Crocodile who was standing on the sand in front of him, and said with some disgust.

Tsk, why do I feel like after beating Big Mom, I can’t get excited about other people anymore?

How lonely it is to be invincible~

and many more!

As Bai Ye was sighing with emotion, he suddenly realized that he had committed the protagonist's biggest taboo and became arrogant!

Really, it’s all Crocodile’s fault.

Looking at Bai Ye's inexplicable look of disdain, Crocodile's mouth twitched constantly, and his own self-cultivation blocked the words he wanted to say.

You are strong, you are amazing, you are noble!

At the same time, he also sensed the battle between Luffy and Barrett, and was a little surprised that the latter fell into a slump.

In fact, his main purpose this time was to get the Straw Hat Pirates to wake up Barrett.

Don't worry about how powerful being alone is.

Only by working with the Cross can you have a bright future.

But he also had to admit that his expectations were wrong.

He originally thought that based on Barrett's strength, if the Straw Hat Pirates wanted to defeat him, at least Luffy and Byakuya would need to attack at the same time.

No matter how much he overestimated the strength of the Straw Hat Pirates, he felt that it would take one of Luffy or Byakuya, plus two of Zoro, Sanji and Jinbei, to perfectly suppress Barrett.

But he could never have imagined that Luffy alone could force Barrett to this point.

This is totally different from what he planned!

He was originally planning to make his final appearance after Barrett was defeated by many members of the Straw Hat Pirates.

Say something very cool like "Long time no see, Straw Hat Boy" and then rescue Barrett.

Then he used words like "A person's power will eventually be limited, and strong companions are indispensable" to subdue Barrett.

But now it seems that no matter which method is used, it is useless.

Crocodile was even a little worried that a stubborn guy like Barrett would run away with the Straw Hat Pirates after being suppressed by Luffy alone.

He knew that when Barrett became a member of Roger's pirate group, he just couldn't beat Roger...

If that happens, he will suffer a great loss.

But he was secretly cheering himself up in his heart. After all, Barrett's strength had only been partially revealed so far.

Until just now, Barrett had been fighting with his well-trained physical strength and domineering skills.

However, his fruit ability has never been activated.

As for the reason, it is because the time has not come yet.

In Barrett's opinion, the biggest reason why he was defeated by the Demon Slayer Fleet led by Sengoku and Garp was that he did not use his abilities to the fullest.

Parahuman fusion fruit.

Anyone who eats this fruit can decompose all objects and rearrange them.

Barrett's huge submarine was built by him personally, which is similar to the Swallow-Swallow Fruit that Franky ate.

Similarly, Barrett can also merge objects he touches with his body.

Crocodile also knew that Barrett had developed to the point where his fruit had awakened. Even if he did not directly touch an object, as long as the object was within the coverage of his ability, it would be affected.

Barrett's strongest goal is to assimilate the entire Demon Slayer Fleet and turn himself into a huge war machine.

The strongest ability plus the strongest body is Barrett's ultimate goal.

"But I don't remember notifying the Liaoyuan Army to come over..."

Crocodile was muttering in his heart when he was knocked away by Byakuya.

-

"Hey, you... white-haired rabbit, get out of my way! Why won't you let us leave?"

At the only port specially set up by the Cross Guild for convenience, the pirates who chose to give up the game were gathering together and confronting the person in front of them... let's call it a person.

Among them were a dozen dead pirates.

"You are the white-haired rabbit! I am a rabbit of the Fur Tribe, and I am also the "King's Bird" of the Furry Principality and a member of the Musketeers - Carrot!"

Hearing the other party's words, Garrot puffed up his cheeks and said angrily.

The person opposite: ...

"Isn't that still a rabbit? No, what I'm telling you now is why they didn't let us leave. Were all the things the Straw Hat Pirates said before a lie?"

The person who was speaking bit his lips tightly. The previous battle for the qualification was too brutal, causing the pirates present to suffer varying degrees of injuries.

This is also the reason why they want to leave as soon as possible. Their intuition tells them that something big is going to happen next.

But what they didn't expect was that the Cross didn't stop them. Instead, a white rabbit jumped down from the Straw Hat Pirates' Merry and stopped them without saying a word.

"The adventure team can leave, but the pirates can't!"

Garrott said with his hands on his hips in full force.

It would have been better if she hadn't pulled a carrot out of her pocket and gnawed on it.

"Why?!" Someone among the pirates shouted, "We have clearly given up the game!"

They don't think that the Straw Hat Pirates are planning to treat them to a meal because they are fellow pirates.

"Stop talking so much, everyone come together and chop this rabbit!!!"

Following someone's instigation, a group of pirates picked up their weapons and rushed towards Carrot.

"You are the rabbit!!!" Carrot angrily took a big bite of the carrot and got ready to attack.

But at this moment, two voices came from behind her.

【Lan Jiao! 】

【White fist! 】
