Chapter 78 - Chapter 78: Bait

"Silas? Has he gone mad!"

On Elbaf's coast, seeing Silas openly releasing his aura without concealment, Rona's expression changed. She could not understand how Silas dared to appear alone.

"Could this be a trick?"

Beside her, Grindelwald frowned and retreated behind Rona.

"Admiral Rona, if White Wolf Silas dares to come, he must have some backup plan. I will stay here to guard Giant King Harald. Leave White Wolf Silas to you and Vice Admiral Kong."

"Fine."

Although she looked down on someone like Grindelwald, Rona was confident that with her and Kong together, Silas would not be able to rescue anyone from Elbaf.

Tch.

As this thought flashed through her mind, Rona felt increasingly irritated. Why did it feel like they were the villains while Silas stood on the side of justice?

Just as Rona's thought emerged, she saw a figure charging toward Silas like a meteor.

"Silas!!!"

Kong roared, using Moonwalk to triple-jump through the air, crossing several kilometers in the blink of an eye to appear before Silas.

"Steel Forge Strike!!"

"Haha, full power right from the start? Kong, do you think what you are doing now is justice?"

"Shut up, Silas!"

In the sky, Silas's blade collided with Kong's fist. The clash of Haki whipped up massive waves on Elbaf's coast.

"This time, I absolutely will not be confused again!"

"Is that so?"

Hearing Kong's words, the smile on Silas's face turned cold.

"If that is the case, then die!"

The extreme cold from his fruit ability spread along Silas's blade to Kong's hands. Even though Kong had covered his hands with Haki, Silas was using both Haki and fruit ability simultaneously.

"Frost Fall!"

The brief collision determined victory in an instant. A slash spanning over a thousand meters, carrying frost, pressed down on Kong, knocking him from the sky.

Silas's roar echoed across all of Elbaf.

"What is wrong? Is it just you, Kong? Rona, if you do not make a move, I will take Kong's life!"

Saying this, Silas charged straight toward where Kong had fallen.

"Damn it!"

Seeing this scene, Rona could no longer remain unmoved.

"Silas, since you want to die, I will grant your wish!"

Standing on the coast, Rona ran toward where Silas and Kong were while gripping her long sword tightly.

"Crimson Quick Draw!"

Unmatched blade light swept away all obstacles in its path, flying straight toward Silas.

"Heh, just you two?"

Stopping his charge toward Kong, Silas deflected Rona's slash with a backhand strike.

But at this moment, Kong, who had just been knocked down by Silas, charged out again.

"Falling Star!"

A mighty blow landed squarely on Silas.

Something is wrong!

However, the strange sensation immediately put Kong on alert.

A phantom made entirely of ice mist was shattered by his punch.

"Admiral Crimson Snake, be careful!"

"?"

Hearing Kong's words, Rona's expression showed alarm, but when she swept with her Observation Haki, she discovered Silas's target was not her or Kong.

But rather...

"Not good!"

Kong and Rona both cried out in alarm as they saw the half-beast transformed Silas charging at extreme speed toward Giant King Harald and CP0 Supreme Action Commander Grindelwald Hoin.

"Stop!"

Although his strength was slightly inferior to Kong and Rona's, Grindelwald had quasi-Admiral level standards. Even Admiral-level fighters could not easily take him down.

At this moment, he stood on Giant King Harald, his Armament Haki-enhanced finger pointing at the Giant King's forehead.

"If you do not want the Giant King to die, then..."

But Grindelwald had not expected that Silas would not even glance at the Giant King, charging directly at him and raising his blade.

"Idiot!"

A strike enhanced with Conqueror's Haki coating instantly sent Grindelwald flying hundreds of meters.

"You want to kill Giant King Harald. What does that have to do with me, White Wolf Silas?"

If a quasi-Admiral-level CP0 could kill Harald with a finger gun, then he would write his name White Wolf Silas backwards. No matter how weak Harald was now, he still had the Haki to block such an attack.

"Damn it!"

Taking Silas's strike and spitting blood, Grindelwald had to admit he had been naive. How could a villain like White Wolf Silas possibly put himself in danger for others?

Seeing Silas continuing to charge at him, Grindelwald could not help but shout, "Admiral Rona, Vice Admiral Kong, what are you doing?"

"Tch."

Although she disliked Grindelwald, Rona would not watch Silas beat him to death. The moment Silas showed slight hesitation in his attack, both Rona and Kong caught up.

However, as fellow Admiral-level fighters, Silas's strength was above Kong's and Rona's.

Combined with speed being Silas's specialty, just as Rona and Kong approached, they saw Silas immediately pull away from them again.

"Lord Grindelwald, stop him!"

"What, me!?"

Hearing Kong's words, Grindelwald, who had just been struck by Silas's Conqueror's coating, turned pale. But he could see the situation too.

If Kong and Rona did not hold down Silas and he really wanted to run, they might not actually be able to stop him.

And there was a reason why he was specifically assigned to act this time.

Zoan Type: Bird-Bird Fruit, Peregrine Falcon Form!

Grindelwald spread his hands wide as numerous feathers grew from his body. Seeing Silas charging at him, Grindelwald took to the air.

"Feather Strike!"

Numerous blade-like feathers flew toward Silas, trying to block his advance, but Silas ignored them completely, single-mindedly charging at him.

"Gah!"

Seeing this version of Silas, Grindelwald screamed, flapping his wing-transformed arms and fleeing toward the distance without looking back.

"Grindelwald!!"

Seeing this scene, Kong and Rona cursed angrily.

At least block him!

Fortunately, although Grindelwald fled to a high altitude, he did not do nothing.

His bird claws struck repeatedly in midair.

"Tempest Kick: Continuous Wave!"

The same Six Powers technique, but the power displayed by strong versus weak fighters was vastly different.

Sickle-shaped slashes fell from the sky.

Even Silas had to raise his hand to defend against Grindelwald's attacks.

"Finally caught up to you!"

Seeing Silas finally stop before him, Kong's expression was excited. The impact from his Armament Haki release enveloped Silas completely.

"Falling Star!"

"Crescent Cutter!"

Also attacking was Rona, whose speed was only slightly slower than Kong's.

Two Admiral-level fighters, plus one infinitely close to Admiral level.

Three joining forces.

Silas had nowhere to escape.

But in such a dire situation, Silas let out laughter.

"Haha, exactly as it should be!"

He had attracted the attention of the three strongest fighters. The rest...

Ripley, it is up to you now.
