Chapter 343: Crushing Three Supernovas
Sabaody Archipelago · Streets
"—Low-level pirates."
Those three words were like a spark dropped into a powder keg, instantly detonating the fury of the three Supernovas!
Eustass Kid's pupils constricted violently. Veins bulged on his forehead as his mechanical arm let out a sharp crunch, crushing a whole section of the iron railing beside him!
"Who the hell are you calling a low-level pirate?!!"
His roar shook the glass windows along the entire street. A magnetic field expanded instantly, causing every metal object in the vicinity to vibrate frantically, clattering as they were pulled toward him!
Scratchmen Apoo curled his lips into a cold, sinister smile. His fingers hovered over the keys on his arm as he let out a low sneer: "A mere Marine Rear Admiral... what a big mouth you have."
Muffled breathing echoed from beneath Killer's mask. His twin blades were already unsheathed, reflecting a chilling, lethal light.
However, Ace didn't even lift an eyelid.
He continued slowly flipping through the wanted posters in his hand, seemingly indifferent to the killing intent radiating from the three.
"Kid, Apoo, Killer... there are three here."
"I wonder how things are going on Luffy's end..."
His gaze paused on a specific line in Kid's file: 'Bounty repeatedly spiked due to multiple massacres of civilians.'
Ace's eyes suddenly turned freezing cold. "Scum like this... actually dares to call themselves Supernovas?"
Kid was thoroughly enraged by Ace's dismissive attitude. Countless metal parts flew frantically from the surrounding streets, instantly coalescing into a mechanical giant arm over ten meters high, which he slammed down toward Ace!
"PUNK STRING!!!"
"BOOM!!!"
The massive fist smashed down, the ground instantly spider-webbing with cracks. A shockwave swept through the surroundings as a plume of dust shot straight into the sky!
Killer gripped his blades tight, his gaze sharp: "Is it over?!"
Apoo sneered, his fingers already tensing, ready to deliver a finishing blow at any moment.
"Phew..."
From within the dust, a flash of fire suddenly ignited. A burning silhouette slowly stepped out.
Flames intertwined to form a mantle of fire, the scorching aura distorting the very air. Ace's eyes were as sharp as blades!
"Brutal pirates..."
"It seems I can't let you stay too comfortable."
The three Supernovas' pupils shrank simultaneously!
"A Logia?!!"
Apoo nearly hit the wrong note on his arm. Cold sweat instantly seeped from his forehead. "A mere Marine Rear Admiral... is actually a Logia user?!"
Killer spat out a low sentence, his blades trembling slightly: "Flames... wait, is he... 'Fire Fist' Ace?!!"
"SWISH!!!"
Before they could even react, Ace's silhouette abruptly vanished!
The next second, he appeared directly in front of Kid, his right fist igniting with a dazzling, roaring blaze!
"HIKEN (FIRE FIST)!!!"
"BOOM—!!!"
The flames transformed into a mountain-sized giant fist that blasted forward, striking Kid's mechanical arm directly!
The moment iron met fire, the mechanical arm melted instantly into glowing, molten slag!
"ARGHHH—!!!"
Kid let out a scream of agony. Hit head-on by the fiery force, he was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing straight through three buildings. Flames, rubble, and dust erupted into the sky!
Amidst the ear-splitting roar, Ace slowly retracted his fist, flames still dancing between his fingers.
His gaze was icy, his voice low and heavy: "For a guy like you, whose hands are stained with the blood of civilians..."
"Even being a pirate is too good for you."
"SCRATCH: CHOP (TATAKI)!!!"
Scratchmen Apoo violently struck the keys on his body. A piercing soundwave transformed into a visible blade, slicing through the air as it lunged toward Ace!
VROOM!
The soundwave blade closed in instantly, looking ready to shred its target. However, the moment it touched Ace's body, it was evaporated into nothingness by the intense heat!
Ace turned his head, the firelight reflecting in his chilling eyes. The corner of his mouth lifted slightly.
"A musician?"
He let out a soft breath, flames pulsing in his palm. "Your tune... is too loud."
"SWISH!"
The fiery figure vanished!
Apoo's pupils shrank. The next instant, he felt a scorching aura rush up behind him.
"BOOM!!!"
A flaming elbow strike smashed heavily into Apoo's back. He let out a muffled groan, coughing up a spray of blood as he was slammed directly into the cobblestone street, kicking up a cloud of debris!
"YOU BASTARD!!!"
Killer roared, his twin blades slashing out in a cross!
"SCYTHE: DOUBLE FLASH!!!"
The blade light tore through the air like a crescent moon, carrying a chilling killing intent toward Ace!
However—
"CLANG!!!"
A crisp sound of clashing metal rang out. Ace merely raised a hand with effortless grace. His fingertips, coated in Armament Haki, delivered a light flick that sent the twin blades vibrating away!
His smile carried a hint of teasing: "No wonder Big Brother Roy likes using this move..."
"It really is satisfying!"
The next second, the flames erupted!
"BOOM—!!!"
A berserk heatwave swept the entire street. Killer was blown away instantly, his mask cracking with a sharp snap as he tumbled wretchedly into the ruins!
In just ten seconds, the three Supernovas—all defeated!
The crowd of onlookers was in an uproar, their breathing momentarily halting!
"Is that... a Marine Rear Admiral?!"
"Fire Fist Ace... how can he be this strong?!"
"Three Supernovas and they weren't even a match?!"
Before the gasps could fade—
"RUMBLE!!!"
Rubble in the distance exploded. Kid, bathed in blood with a savage look in his eyes, crawled out, his face full of fury!
"Damned Marine... I'm going to tear you to pieces!!!"
Countless pieces of metal surged frantically, the air humming with magnetic force!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Iron blocks, chains, gears... every piece of metal was pulled together, precisely assembling into a mechanical demon dozens of meters tall!
Kid stood within it, his eyes bloodshot, his voice deep and violent: "PUNK ROTTEN!!!"
"PUNK VICE!!!"
"BOOM!!!"
The mechanical demon's massive arms slammed together. Bolstered by magnetic force, they acted like a giant hydraulic press, aiming to crush the spot where Ace stood with unimaginable weight and power!
CRACK-CRACK-CRACK—!!!
The air was compressed to the extreme. The cobblestones on the street shattered instantly as a berserk air current exploded outward!
"HAHAHAHA!!!" Kid sneered, his eyes bloodshot.
"Anyone caught in here, even a Marine Admiral, would be crushed into a meat paste!!!"
However, the very instant the iron vice closed—
Sizzle...
The sound of searing flames transmitted from within!
Following it was Ace's indifferent voice, laced with disdain: "You can't even use Haki yet..."
"And all you're good at is bullying and massacring the weak."
"Wh... what?!" Kid's pupils shrank!
"BOOM!!!"
The flames detonated!
Several pillars of blinding fire spewed from the gaps of the mechanical demon, looking like a volcanic eruption!
The entire "Punk Rotten" was torn apart by the fire. The iron melted instantly into liquid metal, splashing in all directions!
"AAAAAAAAAAGH—!!!"
Kid screamed as he was blasted away by the explosive fire, slamming heavily onto the ground. Blood stained the long street!
Ace's footsteps were steady as he walked out from the firelight, his aura overwhelming.
He raised a foot, unceremoniously stepping onto Kid's chest, flames pulsing beneath his sole.
"With just this much skill... you dared to cause trouble in Sabaody?"
Pfft!!
Kid violently coughed up a mouthful of blood, but he still stared dead at Ace, his eyes full of madness and unwillingness: "Bastard... Marine...!!"
Ace couldn't be bothered to waste more words on him. He turned and gave an order to the soldiers behind him.
"Seastone handcuffs."
"CLICK—!"
Cold chains were locked onto Kid's wrists, completely suppressing him.
Ace turned around, his gaze falling upon Apoo and Killer, who were struggling to crawl up in the distance.
He raised an eyebrow, his tone cold and teasing: "You two... are you going to surrender quietly, or do I have to do this myself?"
Apoo and Killer exchanged a look, cold sweat breaking out on their foreheads simultaneously. After a moment of hesitation—they gritted their teeth, stomped their feet, and turned to run!
"Huff... huff... Full retreat!!!"
"We've messed with a monster!!!"
Ace let out a sigh, his gaze chilling: "You guys really don't listen, do you..."
"SWISH!"
Flames erupted violently. His figure transformed into a streak of light, instantly giving chase!
