On top of the towering castle, the soldiers rested tiredly on the high platform of the castle. Many of their faces were stained with toner, which was caused by frequent use of muskets.
At the foot of the castle, piles of corpses were piled up layer by layer, forming a feeling like stacks of sandbags. However, the smell of blood and the stench of rotting corpses rising from below kept the people on the castle alert at all times.
"Hey, move your feet a little bit. These are materials used to repair the city wall."
In other words, it is a material for temporarily repairing the city wall. The soil mixed with hay and thick rice soup can be applied to the gap in the city wall to cover seven layers in one night. It cannot stop the cannonballs, but it is better than nothing.
"What to repair? Can we survive the next wave of attacks? Those lunatics..."
"Then will you let them in?"
The man who complained was instantly choked up.
He wanted to scream and give up, but thinking of his lovely daughter, he fell silent.
It's easy to give up, but is the cost of giving up really something you can bear?
This castle built against the mountains is the last territory of this country. In a few days, they already knew that the guys outside the city were no longer normal humans. Perhaps for them, killing was the greatest joy. Looking out from the observation hole of the castle, under the blue night, pairs of red eyes were swaying in the distance.
"They're attacking again!"
The words startled a bunch of people, and those who were resting rushed to their defensive positions. Within a few seconds, the warning whistle sounded.
The huddled people in the castle raised their heads and looked panicked and frightened.
"Light the torch, those demons believe they will launch the final offensive before night falls completely! We must defend it!" The commander shouted with all his strength, drawing his command sword, but his eyes had already lost color.
So what if the defense is down? It's just to fight for a chance to survive next time. But where is the hope? They are not a franchising country, and no one will come to save this country now.
As if to confirm what he said in his heart, a series of fires suddenly erupted from a seat about a mile outside the city wall. A shrieking sound broke through the air.
The next moment, the devastated castle began to shake. There were many potholes on the already dilapidated city wall, and several overwhelmed areas were directly smashed through. There was a cry from the soldiers hiding behind the wall. Their wails.
But these wails were quickly covered up by the sound of attacks from the opposite side. The hoarse roars were the horns of evil spirits bursting out of hell. They came one after another and finally connected the city. The scarlet eyes were particularly penetrating under the gradually deepening night.
The command knife in his hand became a little loose for a while, but the veins standing on his arms and the back of his hands showed otherwise. A few drops of transparent liquid seeped out from between the fingers, slid down the blade and gathered, turning blood red when it reached the tip of the blade. The next moment they were thrown away into the distance.
"Fire! Fire!!!"
With an order, the soldier on the city wall, whose palms were covered with sweat, decisively pulled the trigger against the darkness with countless red eyes.
It was like opening a flood valve, and the sound of countless fires suddenly enveloped all sounds. Until a special ladder was hung on the city wall, and those crazy people rushed to the castle.
Facing those crazy eyes, Bibbini felt like she was being stared at by a hungry wolf in the wilderness, with a ferocity that was life-and-death.
Why do these guys have such eyes? Are they really so fanatical about war? !
He didn't understand, he didn't understand. His body seemed to be unable to do anything except fear and trembling. He subconsciously pulled the trigger and the bullet came out of the chamber, but he sat down on the ground.
The bullet hit the opponent's forehead, and the ferocious scarlet blood eyes gradually lost their color. Then the warrior who followed him hit him with a bamboo pole and threw him off the city wall.
The same scene appeared in various places on the city wall. When looking directly at those scarlet eyes at close range, few people could feel no emotion at all.
The castle's defenses became weak.
At this moment, a black cloth enveloped the castle.
People who noticed the sudden darkness of the world subconsciously took the time to look up at the sky, and were shocked by the sight in front of them.
"Ship...flying ship!?"
…
Youyuko sat on the rabbit's head with her arms folded and looked down solemnly.
"These guys are very abnormal." "No matter how much encouragement there is, it is impossible for a warrior to have such a zombie-like will to fight. There is definitely a role for Devil Fruit in this."
"Is it because I'm too lazy to take care of the Devil Fruit now? They won't be able to hold on anymore, right? Are they going to take action?"
Yuyuko rolled her eyes at Reijiu, "Sister Reijiu, what do you think?"
Reiju quickly shrugged, spread her hands and said angrily, "I don't think I have a choice."
"That's fine then."
Youyouzi raised her hand, and Bai Hua Piao Ling, who was lying next to her throne, was swept over by the wind. "Yaleyanan and Mina are watching the boat, and the others..."
Youyouzi looked down and waved his hand, and a wind blade flew down from the sky and cut out a vacuum area directly in front of the castle.
"Let's get this fight over with here."
…
The incident above quickly attracted the attention of the owner of the castle.
"That flag...is it a pirate flag?" The king of the Kingdom of Varudo stood in a strong armor and looked gloomily at the 'spaceship' above his head. At this moment, he felt a little rough in his heart. I don't know whether this sudden 'ship' is an enemy or a friend. Is it the last straw that breaks the kingdom or a beacon that rekindles hope in the kingdom?
However, the vague sight of the black fluttering pirate flag made the king who smashed Varudo a little sad.
Pirates.
Even if I help, I will definitely be a lion.
But before he could continue to think about this issue, a strong wind suddenly rose around the castle, and a pungent smell of blood suddenly rolled up like a sea wave with the strong wind and waves.
The next moment, a black figure jumped off the pirate ship and waved a weapon that was indistinguishable in the dim light. The king who smashed Varudo suddenly became stupid.
In an instant, several huge tornadoes were set off and swept away from the castle. The blood and corpses below were quickly pulled into the tornado, and then turned into countless fragments. In just two or three breaths, the tornadoes turned into dark red terrifying tornadoes.
But this was not over yet. Just as the strong wind rose, crackling thunder and lightning suddenly sounded in the sky. A thunder dragon swooped down from the clouds and rushed towards the battlefield outside the castle with an ear-piercing roar. Wherever the dragon passed, it was like thunder plowing the ground with continuous roars and explosions.
"This..." "Who is this person?!"
Then the thunder light shone from time to time, and the king finally saw the logo on the pirate flag clearly, but after reading it, he was even more shocked.
Is that one-eyed kawaii bunny-headed pirate flag really a 'god' out there?
At this moment he even forgot to breathe.
He just felt that the world had become completely unfamiliar to him.
Unlike the king, a embarrassed figure in the castle took the opportunity to run up to an eaves of the castle and stood on the eaves and took out his camera. "Big news, this is definitely big news, that figure and this ability!! It's unmistakable, it's unmistakable! That lord... Lord Shanki of the Seven Martial Seas!"
While murmuring excitedly, his eyes were extremely shocked as he looked at the 'ship' floating in the sky not far away and the few people below the castle who were quickly cutting through the battlefield.
"Is this the crew member of Lord Shanji who has never appeared?!"
"Big news, this will definitely surprise everyone, it's rare, big news, big news!"
…
During the battle, Youyouzi took the time to glance behind her. This inadvertent glance happened to meet the eyes of the man leaning on the sloping eaves.
He frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy. He wanted to wave away the man, but raised his hand but gave up.
"Others will eventually find out, but sooner or later. Although some problems will be exposed, those five old guys should be a little bit clueless." After murmuring a few words, Yuyuko turned around and dealt with those who had already been dealt with again. Guys who don't look like humans.
Yuyouzi didn't know if they still had their own thoughts, but from the way those guys still charged without fear of life and death, Yuyouzi only felt disappointment and powerlessness.
This is the power of Devil Fruits. Maybe many Devil Fruits have a low sense of existence, but they are also indispensable for people who are confused but feel scared.
Just like the childlike fruit possessed by sugar in the Don Quixote family, as long as he is turned into a doll when he cannot resist, then people all over the world will forget that person.
Just the touch of your fingertips has the power to change the world.
How much power can there be like this?
At least the devil fruit with unknown abilities that I encountered now has turned the people below into this beast-like appearance.
These are all people!
I feel a little sad in my heart, and I secretly mourn for the people in this world. Without pausing, he waved countless wind blades again to sweep the battlefield.
…
"Sister Ikari, do you feel it?" Lying on the side of the boat, next to Ikari, who had her back leaning against the side of the boat, and Mina and Freya, who were left on the boat by the special force.
Ikari nodded silently. In the world of her perception, the boundless red ocean stopped abruptly as if it had encountered a dam, and the breath that made people feel hairy was disappearing as fast as a golden man.
It's just that Ikari felt that these dying breaths did not disappear, but overflowed into the air. Just a slight contact made people feel irritable, and there was a lot of desire for destruction.
"Is this also the power of the devil fruit that the master said?"
"Sister Ikari, are you willing to be Yuyuko's apprentice?" After hearing Ikari's whisper, Mina hurriedly rubbed her head over. A little happy, a little excited, as if... I have a new toy.
that's the truth.
Because when Yuyuko taught Rebecca, she often used playful attacks. Later, when Yuyuko wanted to be lazy, she would ask Mina to take her place from time to time. Of course, Mina also treated it as a joke. .
So when it comes to having an apprentice, Mina's first reaction is fun. It was because Yuyuko led him astray...
Ikari:…
Become a disciple, this is what Yuyuko proposed on the way to the Kingdom of Varudo. Although Ikari was a little moved, she was always hesitant. There was a voice in her heart that kept saying, 'Are you worthy of being like this?' ’, so she kept tossing and hesitating. I just said it casually.
only……
"Hmm~"
I don’t know why, but my body involuntarily responded in a low voice.
The body made its own decision.
"Huh~" Mina tilted her head and stared at Ikari for a while. "It's strange, I always felt that there was a glimmer of joy in your eyes just now~ Is it an illusion?"
