To some extent, Garp can be said to be a complete failure.
Although he did not pass out, his body had lost its strength.
Not to mention dealing with Hashirama's next actions.
Now, it is difficult for him to do even something as simple as standing up.
Look back at Hashirama.
His injuries are recovering quickly.
Although the immortal mode can no longer be maintained, his mental state is obviously much better than Garp.
If the two sides were fighting to the death, Hashirama could take advantage of Garp's lack of physical strength to kill him.
And it's not just Garp.
If Hashirama wanted to, he could even kill the accompanying navy soldiers after finishing Garp.
However, although Hashirama won the battle, he had no intention of killing.
In fact, he didn't feel any killing intent from Garp's attack.
Coupled with the recognition of Garp's personality and strength.
Hashirama didn't want to hurt the man in front of him at all.
It's just that such a huge naval force suddenly broke into the border of the Country of Fire.
As the first Hokage, he needs to understand the other party's purpose.
Thinking of this, Hashirama took three steps at a time and approached Garp.
But at this moment...
Kirby and Belumeb were still trembling.
They looked at each other.
They exchanged glances.
They simply couldn't imagine Garp's defeat.
Even now, in their hearts, they are unwilling to accept the facts before them.
but……
What happened cannot be changed.
No matter how shocked they were in their hearts.
The final result has also been determined.
"What should we do, Kirby."
Belumeb's voice trembled.
As Garp's disciple, Belumeber naturally didn't want to abandon Garp.
But he also knew how weak his own strength was.
In this current situation, he couldn't help Garp at all.
But if Garp is left here like this, he will become a deserter.
Let’s not talk about the inner suffering.
Even if he really escaped back to the Navy Headquarters.
I'm afraid they will only be treated as deserters.
Based on this relationship, Mabel Bell really has no idea now.
Kirby looked at his companions.
It is obviously impossible to say that I am not afraid at all.
But now, the only way is to face reality.
Kirby gritted his teeth.
Then he turned and looked at the pit where Garp was.
"No matter what, we cannot let Mr. Karp die here."
"He is not only the spiritual support of all naval soldiers, but also the benefactor who brought us to Malinfando."
Kirby rolled his throat and swallowed nervously.
And deep in my heart, I mustered up great courage.
The next second...
He got up from the ground and took long strides with his legs.
He took the initiative to rush towards the pit.
Of course, Belumeb didn't expect Kebi's actions.
"Kerby..."
But looking at the backs of his companions who were leaving, he felt greatly encouraged in his heart.
Yes.
It was in order to protect them that Garp fought with the ninjas of the Land of Fire.
As Garp's subordinate, as Garp's disciple.
How could I be here and give up on the other person?
"I'm coming, Kirby!"
I saw Bellumeb yelling at Kerby's back, kicking his legs hard, and rushed over decisively.
Other navy soldiers who were still awake noticed their behavior.
First they looked at each other and exchanged glances.
Immediately afterwards, these naval soldiers picked up their weapons one after another.
Follow the charge of Kirby and Belumeb.
Heading towards the deep pit.
Although Hizashi and others noticed the actions of these naval soldiers, they did not show any embarrassment.
Although Garp's strength is extremely powerful.
In Hizashi's eyes, he is an out-and-out monster.
But these soldiers in navy uniforms were surprisingly weak.
Hizashi couldn't feel any aura from them.
He even felt that their strength might not be as good as the genin of Konoha Hidden Village.
Even if you let them pass.
It is also impossible to threaten Hashirama's safety.
Just a thought from Hashirama.
Any tree world that comes here can kill these guys.
But no matter what, Hizashi admired the courage shown by these naval soldiers.
Obviously after seeing the horror of Hashirama.
They could still rush forward in an attempt to protect their lieutenant general.
This kind of spirit is simply courageous.
Then, Hizashi made a gesture and asked his subordinates to surround the navy soldiers.
Although I don't know what the purpose of these naval soldiers is, since they are here, I can't let them leave easily.
In case they bring the information here to the Navy Headquarters.
It might cause even greater trouble.
At the same time, Hashirama, who has a strong sense of perception, also noticed the madness of Kebi and others.
He glanced up and looked at the mighty navy soldiers, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
But soon, he raised the corners of his mouth.
It's not that I discovered the strength of these naval soldiers, they were surprisingly weak.
It was their attitude of caring about their companions and sharing life and death that made Hashirama very happy.
If Kebi, Belumeb and others are all for their own safety, they can abandon their companions at any time.
Then he would take action and kill them all.
After a while, Kebi and Belumeb came to Garp first, and they protected Garp behind them.
He clenched his fists with both hands and assumed a fighting stance.
All pairs of eyes were focused on Hashirama.
He looked at the ninja god as if he were facing a formidable enemy.
It has to be said that the courage that Kebi and others mustered up at this moment made Garp somewhat unexpected.
"Kerby..."
"Belumber."
"you……"
Garp's tone was full of surprise.
"Lieutenant General Garp." Kirby rolled his throat and swallowed nervously.
Facing a monster ninja like Hashirama.
It is obviously impossible to say that there is no fear in my heart.
In fact, although Kebi assumed a fighting stance, his legs could not stop trembling.
But despite this, Kebi did not regret his choice.
"Don't say anything anymore."
"Recover your strength first."
In Kirby's view, Garp cannot be considered a failure in the true sense.
Although Garp's body was embedded in the center of the pit and could not move, there were no serious injuries on his body.
At most, they were bruises caused by the Thousand-Armed Buddha, covering Garp's muscles.
A large part of the reason why he is like this is because his physical strength is exhausted.
Just unable to get up.
So Kebi's idea is also very simple.
As long as they, the navy soldiers, can buy time for Garp to recover his strength.
The situation might be changed.
Thinking of this, they surrounded Garp and carefully stared at the surrounding ninjas.
It's like a desperate realization.
but……
Although they performed very bravely, they lacked sufficient strength.
It is also difficult to play a decisive role.
Garp's eyes widened even more.
He had no idea that Kebi and Belumeber would have such courage.
While I felt relieved, I also felt worried.
He felt that Hashirama didn't have much physical strength left.
But even so, it will definitely not be difficult for Hashirama to deal with these naval soldiers.
Yes.
For a monster like Hashirama, an opponent like Kirby.
He only needs to use the simplest physical skills to defeat him easily.
"call……"
Looking at the performance of Kebi and others, Hashirama couldn't help but sigh.
"Young people."
"I don't want to hurt you."
While talking, Hashirama took steps again and walked towards Garp.
"I just want to find out the purpose of your trip."
"There are also information from the Navy Headquarters."
Hashirama said without thinking.
The implication is that he hopes Kebi and others can put down their weapons and accept the investigation of Konoha Hidden Village.
After confirming that they have no malice or hostility towards the Country of Fire.
Naturally, it will not embarrass them.
However, as the pride of the navy, how could they let them go without help?
In their perception, the Navy Headquarters has a status that definitely exceeds that of any country on this sea.
"Don't, don't come any closer!"
A low growl erupted from Kirby's throat.
Warn Hashirama not to approach Garp again.
Otherwise, I will never be polite.
"Ke, Kebi..."
It has to be said that Garp's eyes were full of surprise at Kebi's performance.
He never thought that Kebi would perform such an amazing performance when facing a monster like Hashirama.
He could feel the courage condensed in Kebi.
"Young man, your courage is indeed surprising, but..."
Hashirama looked at Kebi. Judging from his appearance, the boy in front of him was only sixteen or seventeen years old.
Although he is not a genius, his spirit is very tenacious.
It's just that such a spirit can hardly play any real role in the face of strong strength.
Hashirama stopped.
Not because of Kirby's warning.
Hashirama didn't take his words to heart at all.
It was just that so many navy soldiers surrounded Garp.
It was indeed inconvenient for him to take away Garp's thoughts.
Thinking of this, Hashirama slowly raised his hands.
His actions immediately made all the navy soldiers feel nervous.
Some people even picked up muskets on the spot.
And pointed the dark muzzle at Zhu Jian.
"Don't move, ninja!"
"Put your hands down, otherwise, I will shoot!"
"Stay away from here!"
The navy soldiers couldn't help but speak, wanting to drink Hashirama away.
But even Garp's attack with overlord-colored Haki couldn't cause damage to Hashirama.
How could it be possible to threaten Hashirama with just such a destructive musket?
In fear, a naval soldier couldn't help but pull the trigger.
Bang!
Accompanied by a gunshot, the black lead bullets, driven by a tongue of flame, flew straight towards the pillars.
For Hashirama, such an attack was unexpected.
But the flying speed of the lead bullet was as slow as a slide in Hashirama's eyes.
He just tilted his head and missed the lead bullet.
In the eyes of many navy soldiers, Hashirama seemed to have predicted their attacks with his knowledge and Haki.
"Wood Release: The Technique of Coming to the Tree Realm!"
Immediately afterwards, Hashirama's voice sounded again.
His voice is not high, but it is sonorous and powerful.
And as Hashirama finished speaking, vines appeared under the feet of many naval soldiers.
The next second...
These vines are growing crazily at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Not only did it wrap around their legs and feet, it also became thicker.
In the blink of an eye, it transformed into thick and towering trees.
Some navy soldiers were sealed directly into tree trunks.
Some were hung upside down on branches.
But there is no doubt that the movements of these naval soldiers are all easily restricted and they are unable to move.
Even the weapons in their hearts fell to the ground.
Garp's eyes were wider than a cow's eyes.
He never dreamed that Hashirama would have such a ninjutsu in his hand.
The numerical advantage of naval soldiers was nothing in front of him.
Only the truly strong can withstand Hashirama's attack.
"This power is simply like the power of nature itself."
Garp couldn't help but marvel.
However, he also noticed that Hashirama was obviously showing mercy.
He just used this power to restrict their actions.
Otherwise, Hashirama could completely control those branches and trunks and strangle them.
It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Hashirama has this idea.
Not to mention a mere two hundred naval soldiers.
That's two thousand navy soldiers.
Even 20,000 navy soldiers.
I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand the arrival of Hashirama's tree realm.
He will definitely be killed in an instant.
but……
The arrival of Hashirama's tree realm, although it was devastating, failed to capture all the naval soldiers.
Kebi is the only one.
He watched Hashirama activate his ninjutsu.
Kebi kicked his feet hard, dodged the vines at his feet, and rolled to the side.
Just his companion, his best friend.
Belumeber was not so lucky.
Although Bellumeb also discovered the vines under his feet, he immediately waved the two knives in his hands and slashed at the opponent.
But he underestimated the hardness of the vine.
A slash with the knife failed to cut off the vines.
On the contrary, his own tiger's mouth was so shocked that it hurt and became numb.
It seemed as if he had struck not on a plant, but on hard metal.
So much so that Belumeb's body directly entered a state of stiffness.
The vines at his feet climbed up and grabbed his thighs, and then his waist.
Finally, it transformed into a towering tree, sealing Belumeber into the main body of the tree trunk, leaving only his face and chest exposed.
Allowing him to continue breathing.
"shave!"
Kebi subconsciously glanced at Belumeb, and the unwillingness in his heart turned into motivation at this moment.
He let out a low roar, used the Six Styles of Razor, and rushed towards Hashirama decisively.
Even if he is not Hashirama's opponent.
He also needs to teach this guy a lesson.
