Gordon Ebner disregarded everyone's attempts to stop him. He shoved aside the guards blocking his path and directly headed to the top floor.
The guards of the Red Lady Tower could only stare helplessly.
Gordon Ebner was a cadre of the Buin family, and his strength was formidable. How could they be his opponents?
And now, Gordon Ebner was in a fit of rage. If they provoked him carelessly, they might lose their lives on the spot!
"Lord Ebner! If you continue forward, I will have no choice but to notify Lord Fitzgerrald of the Buin family to come and preside over justice!"
The madam shouted loudly.
At these words, Gordon Ebner immediately stopped.
But he quickly turned his head and stared at the madam with a grim look: "Fitzgerrald? That guy still owes me a drink! Go ahead and notify him. Si Qingluo... will be mine!"
"I warn you, all of you, stand still! Anyone who dares to block me again will find that I show no mercy!"
"Furthermore, no matter what commotion occurs on the top floor later, none of you are allowed to come up. Otherwise, I'll make sure you regret it!"
After delivering his warning, Gordon Ebner continued forward.
The madam and the guards exchanged glances, their faces full of helplessness.
Gordon Ebner was determined this time... This lust-driven man, whenever he encountered a woman, would go completely wild, disregarding everything. Even if they notified Lord Fitzgerrald now, it would probably be too late.
A perfectly good transaction, just lost like that. What a pity!
...
"He's here."
Ye Jia, who was appreciating Si Qingluo's dance, squinted his eyes, knowing that Gordon Ebner had arrived.
It wasn't that his perception was particularly keen, but rather that Gordon Ebner's massive body stepping on the wooden stairs produced a grating, piercing sound, making it hard not to notice.
Ye Jia showed no panic, continuing to enjoy the graceful dance.
Until a "bang" sound—
The door to the top-floor room was smashed open by a punch. Si Qingluo shrieked in fright and quickly hid behind Ye Jia.
"Brat, daring to steal my woman, Gordon Ebner's woman! Today is your day to die!"
Gordon Ebner stepped on the shattered door panel, approaching them, speaking fiercely.
"My day to die? Are you sure?"
Ye Jia calmly picked up his teacup and took a small sip, not even bothering to give Gordon Ebner a direct look.
"Brat, die!"
From the knuckles of Gordon Ebner's two fists, which were as large as sand pots, several long bone claws suddenly extended.
"Wolverine?"
Ye Jia glanced at them, almost choking on his tea.
Bone claws appeared from the knuckles of Gordon Ebner's fists, looking exactly like Wolverine's special ability!
However, Wolverine's were adamantium claws, while Gordon Ebner's were bone claws before evolving.
But soon, something changed... Gordon Ebner's head transformed into a wolf's head. Grayish-white wolf fur grew from his face, constantly extending, until his entire body took on the appearance of a wolf, transforming him into a massive werewolf!
A pair of blood-red, bloodthirsty eyes were filled with savage beastiality, terrifyingly chilling.
Si Qingluo only glanced at him. If Ye Jia hadn't promptly reached out to support her, she would have almost collapsed onto the ground in fear.
"No need to be afraid, he's just an Animal-type Devil Fruit user."
Ye Jia softly comforted Si Qingluo.
"Qiu Li, this guy is yours. Can you handle him?"
Ye Jia looked up and asked loudly.
Suddenly, a figure leaped in from another spot... The room was open-air, without cover, and the figure landed directly in front of Gordon Ebner.
"Leave him to me. A cadre of the Buin family... fighting him will help my swordsmanship grow."
Qiu Li held a sword in his left hand and a saber in his right, resting them at his waist. His sharp eyes glared fiercely at Gordon Ebner.
"You? You think you can deal with me? Ridiculous!"
Without another word, a crimson light flashed in Gordon Ebner's bloodthirsty eyes and then disappeared. His entire being instantly transformed into a swift shadow, and he opened his bloody maw to bite.
Qiu Li showed no panic.
Before joining the Grim Reaper Pirates, Qiu Li's strength was at most comparable to Blood Blade Pacifis. If he hadn't been ambushed from behind, Qiu Li wouldn't have been defeated so miserably.
But after half a month of arduous training on the ship, with the unlimited stamina provided by the Stamina Pills, Qiu Li's strength was no longer what it used to be!
"Let me... test the results of my training!"
"Blade and Sword! Cross Performance!"
Qiu Li held his blade and sword, his eyes narrowed, and he instantly wielded them!
Like lightning, the blade and sword simultaneously formed a horizontal and vertical cross-shaped sword light in front of Qiu Li.
Qiu Li let out a soft cry, and the cross-shaped sword light vanished from its spot.
The next second.
"Bang!"
With an explosive sound, Gordon Ebner's figure fell from the air.
He looked down and saw a cross-shaped wound imprinted on his body, which suddenly burst open, splattering blood everywhere!
Strangely, after Gordon Ebner's wound opened and bled, it quickly healed at a visible speed. In just a few seconds, his body returned to normal, without any trace of injury!
Qiu Li and Ye Jia's expressions both changed when they saw this scene.
No wonder he could become a cadre of the Buin family. Such a large wound could heal in such a short time... Animal-type Devil Fruit users should not be underestimated.
"Brat, you actually dared to injure me... I'll kill you first!"
Gordon Ebner was injured by an unknown swordsman. If this matter got out, Gordon Ebner's reputation would undoubtedly plummet.
The only way to regain his reputation was to kill this swordsman, using his head to prove his abilities!
Immediately, Gordon Ebner launched a fierce offensive against Qiu Li.
Qiu Li also refused to be outdone. He wielded his blade and sword, engaging Gordon Ebner in a head-on battle!
The room wasn't a battlefield; it was fragile and couldn't withstand their combined power.
In less than a minute, the entire room was in tatters. Ye Jia quickly picked up Si Qingluo and teleported to a safe spot like lightning, bringing a table and teapot with him. He drank tea, held the beauty, and leisurely enjoyed the fight.
"They're fighting! Lord Ebner has made his move!"
The guards outside, hearing the commotion, looked dejected.
If the Red Lady Tower's star auction guest was killed by a Buin family cadre, if this got out, the Red Lady Tower's reputation would instantly plummet to rock bottom!
Not only that, Gordon Ebner was a violent fellow. When he fought, he was like a madman. He might even smash the Red Lady Tower.
"This is big trouble!"
The madam's face was extremely grim.
...
"Wolf Cannon!"
Gordon Ebner took a deep breath, then opened his bloody maw and violently spewed an air cannon.
"Bang!"
Qiu Li quickly dodged, but a large hole was blasted in his original position!
