Bang! The muffled sound of a heavy object landing echoed loudly.
The seven- or eight-meter-long candle giant, whose body was said to be comparable to steel, was cut in half with one slash.
The huge upper body, losing its support, crashed heavily on the ground, directly shattering the paved stone floor.
Mr. 3, who had been hiding inside, watched the cold light of the blade, only a hair's breadth away from his throat, and his pupils contracted to the extreme.
Hot sweat was sliding down his rolling Adam's apple.
Faced with the sudden attack just now, the lightning-fast posture.
His mind was still stuck on the moment of the attack.
Faced with the cold and aloof man who was close at hand, Mr. 3's mind flashed with the underwear he was wearing today, which was actually white.
Not having time to think more, he directly reached out his hand to grope.
Along with the sound of tearing cloth, a tattered white pair of underwear was forcibly pulled out and directly swayed in the wind.
"I, I surrender. White represents a sincere surrender. Y, you can't kill me. If you really want to be the president of Baroque Works, I can help you seize the position of president. It's just that the president has always been very mysterious. If you don't mind, you can be a vice president first."
The hurried pleas were heard from Mr. 3's mouth.
Watching the high-ranking executive of Baroque Works, who had been high-spirited just a moment ago and had been clamoring to rub Kai on the ground.
In the blink of an eye, Mr. 3, who had even torn his bottom line, no, his underwear, and used it as a white handkerchief to surrender.
The difference between before and after was really a bit too big.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, who would have been willing to believe it.
The battle, which they thought would last for a while, was actually decided with one move.
"The only thing that can't be broken in the world of swordsmanship is speed. The strongest swordsman should be me!" The mumbling words were spat out from the shop owner's mouth as if he was talking to himself.
Watching Kai's back, it was simply shining and radiating light all of a sudden, and it became great in an instant.
In front of everyone's eyes, he laughed like a madman.
"As expected, he's a good kid. The heart of the strong only respects himself. The only thing that can't be broken in the world of swordsmanship is speed. What Supreme Great Swordsman Hawkeye, in front of him, is just fart!"
The hurried words echoed in the huge square.
Bastille was also dumbfounded. The huge shark-slaying sword he was clenching in his hand, his fingers couldn't help but clench.
Recalling his subconscious answer just now, he couldn't wait to slap himself a few times.
Especially since he had been running his mouth just a moment ago, saying that he was going to guide Kai to learn swordsmanship.
Right now, faced with the fleeting battle, it was completely like showing off his axe in front of Lu Ban. If there was a dog hole here, he couldn't wait to crawl straight in.
"Bastille, are you going to gamble the honor of swordsmanship and fight me?" Kai didn't look at Mr. 3 much.
The highest level of acting cool was to be subtle and strike while the iron was hot.
The sudden words were like a thunderclap, detonating in Bastille's mind.
Faced with Kai's lighthearted posture, Bastille's expression shook. Then, in front of everyone's eyes, he knelt down on the ground with a plop.
Holding the shark-slaying sword with both hands, he prostrated and said in a deep voice, "I, Bastille, am willing to abandon my own swordsmanship. I hope that teacher Laxus will guide me to the Supreme Swordsmanship to defeat the Skeletal Demon!"
The awe-inspiring words echoed in the huge square. At this moment, it was as if it had been infused with magic sounds, and it couldn't dissipate for a long time.
Watching the dignified Marine Vice Admiral, in front of everyone's eyes, kneel down and ask a young man in his early twenties for guidance.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, who would have been willing to believe it.
Many people even rubbed their eyes red.
No! It should be said that even Tashigi, who was standing beside him, hadn't expected it at all.
Just a moment ago, Bastille, who had been clamoring to recruit Kai into the Marine Headquarters, had taken the initiative to join Kai's command in just half a day.
The difference between before and after undoubtedly exceeded her understanding.
"Brother Bastille, have you gone mad!" Smoker's roar spread wildly from a distance.
Soon, Smoker, who had used the Smoke Emitter and was rushing over at an extremely fast speed, landed in front of Kai.
Under that gloomy expression, a pair of murderous eyes were locked on Kai, and he shouted sharply, "Laxus, I'm now officially arresting you on the grounds of attacking a Marine general and destroying the execution platform in Loguetown. If you dare to resist, don't blame me for getting serious."
The awe-inspiring words were spat out.
Watching this sudden scene, the eyes of the onlookers couldn't help but light up again.
The drama, which they thought had come to an end, was being staged again, which was really exciting.
However, this time, before Kai could speak, Bastille had already stood up from the ground. After clenching the shark-slaying sword in his hand with a backhand, he said in a deep voice, "Brother Smoker, don't do anything stupid anymore."
"You haven't even mastered Armament Haki. Teacher Laxus, just relying on the elementalization characteristics of the Logia Devil Fruit, isn't something you can defeat."
"Most importantly, the teacher is the only shortcut for me to defeat the Skeletal Demon. I hope you don't hinder me, brother. Otherwise, don't blame me for not remembering our past relationship."
Faced with his past grievances with Ainz Ooal Gown.
In Bastille's heart, he didn't have much resentment towards Kai killing the Celestial Dragon in the identity of Ainz.
It was just that, thinking of the posture of displaying powerful killing moves between his gestures, his heart seemed to have been branded with an indelible shadow mark.
This time, he left the Marine Headquarters to find the so-called new combat power.
A large part of it was that Bastille believed that he couldn't overthrow the fear left in his heart by Bone King with his own strength alone.
He wanted to use the excavation of stronger combat power for the Marine Headquarters to erase the shadow of fear.
However, this thought, after personally watching the fleeting scene and the posture of being the only one in the sky and on earth.
The fear in Bastille's heart shook for the first time.
A demonic sound appeared in his mind, as if it was telling him that as long as he joined the command of Laxus, who was also a madman.
He would be able to overcome the fear in his heart.
Watching Bastille, who had suddenly drawn his sword against him, Smoker's face suddenly turned ashen.
Just as he was about to say something. An inexplicable chill, like a raging tide, swept through the entire square.
The sudden scene made people couldn't help but shiver. Ice crystals even formed on the eyebrows of some people.
Some frost also appeared on the surrounding houses. At this moment, the entire Loguetown was like it had fallen into an ice cellar.
Feeling the change in the room, Bastille's expression changed drastically. Before he could speak, Kai had already looked towards the end of the distant street.
"I didn't expect that Admiral Aokiji would actually be strolling around here. However, this way of appearing is a bit shabby."
