Chapter 215Blotting out the sun.With an unmatched momentum, he stomped down directly on Kid's head!Kid hurriedly used his massive mechanical arm to block.Boom!The moment the ground made contact with the sole of Luffy's foot, it turned into elastic Rubber, followed immediately by the eruption of a terrifying impact force.Kid felt an indescribable, massive force transmit through his mechanical arm. He was driven into the ground like a nail, leaving only half his body exposed, while his meticulously constructed mechanical arm shattered into pieces."Cough, gah!"Kid spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes filled with resentment and horror.At the same time, a terrified pirate beside Hawkins, perhaps out of fear or a desire to prove himself, actually fired a shot at Luffy with trembling hands!"You idiot! Don't!"Hawkins' expression changed drastically as he cursed under his breath, but it was too late to stop it.He instantly activated his ability, his body swelling and transforming into his massive 'Goma no So' straw man form, attempting to ward off the potential attack."Hm?"Luffy noticed the movement. Tilting his head to dodge the bullet, he grinned. His body rapidly expanded like it was being inflated, becoming even more massive than Hawkins' straw man form!"Gum-Gum Giant Pistol!"A massive white fist, wreathed in black and red arcs of electricity.Hawkins' straw man form couldn't even put up an effective resistance before its massive body was punched through. Hawkins himself was sent flying like a broken kite, crashing through half a wall before stopping. A straw voodoo doll fell from his body, instantly turning charred and black.He struggled to get up, but fell back down powerlessly, clearly severely injured.It all happened too fast.From the moment Luffy attacked to the defeat of Killer, Kid, and Hawkins, only a few dozen seconds had passed!Drake and Law's pupils contracted violently, and cold sweat broke out instinctively.They clearly felt the chasm-like gap in strength between them.This wasn't even a fight on the same level!"Looks like everyone has calmed down now."Luffy returned to his normal state, his white, steam-like hair slowly settling. He grinned at the Supernovas, "As long as you don't cause me trouble, I'll give you a chance to leave."He had no intention of attacking further; the deterrent effect had been achieved.Aside from the foul-mouthed and provocative Apoo, the most vocal and aggressive Kid and Killer, and the passively involved Hawkins, the remaining Supernovas very rationally chose silence, showing no signs of making a move.The many Supernovas gathered on Sabaody Archipelago were originally fighting for themselves. Occasional conflicts were just tests of each other's strength; without a conflict of interest, they wouldn't engage in a fight to the death.They all knew in their hearts that before entering the New World, they weren't mortal enemies. Their true targets should be the overlords of those vast waters.Right now, Luffy's strength was clearly far above theirs. Having a conflict now would be extremely irrational.Furthermore, looking at Luffy, he seemed to have more important things to do and had no intention of getting too entangled with them.So, they stopped.The chaotic battle between the Supernovas had already caused quite a stir and likely attracted the attention of Marine Headquarters. This was no place to linger.However, just as this brief silence was about to be maintained..."Waaaaaah!!!"A shrill scream erupted from the human-shaped crater where Kid had been smashed. It wasn't from pain, but from extreme rage and humiliation!Immediately after, an even more powerful magnetic wave erupted with him at the center.Luffy felt the black blade moyi at his waist shake violently, letting out a hum.Not only that, but the metal weapons in the hands of all the surrounding pirates—whether swords or flintlocks—were snatched as if by an invisible giant hand and flew out of their grasp.All the metal objects in the vicinity were summoned, converging frantically in one direction.Countless metal fragments, weapons, and debris collided, squeezed, and fused in the air, accompanied by the constant sound of twisting metal.Finally, they condensed into a massive mechanical arm piled high with countless pieces of metal!"This great lord won't accept any handouts!"Kid struggled to climb out of the crater, half his face covered in blood and his eyes bloodshot, looking like a madman. "This fight isn't over yet!"That massive mechanical arm blotted out the sun, carrying an aura of total destruction as it swung down fiercely toward Luffy.Kid's pride would never allow him to accept any charity.Never mind Straw Hat Luffy.Even if the real Four Emperors came, he would have the same attitude!Now, he didn't care about anything anymore.To hell with the Marines, to hell with the consequences—he was Eustass Kid!At this moment, he only wanted to crush the guy who had brought him such endless humiliation."A Magnet-Magnet Fruit user?"Law took a deep look at that massive mechanical arm.A bounty of over three hundred million was indeed not for nothing.Kid's strength was definitely at the forefront among the Supernovas.But could he really pose a threat to Straw Hat?Boom!A sharp roar echoed through the skies!However, the scene everyone expected—of Luffybeing swatted away—did not occur.That mechanical giant arm, capable of destroying an entire street, seemed to be dissected by another precise force before it even touched Luffy. It disintegrated from within; first, a massive hole appeared in the center, and then cracks spread across the entire arm like a spiderweb!"Luffy's swordsmanship is getting more and more terrifying."Zoro grinned as he watched the scene.In the next instant, amidst the flying metal fragments and dust, Luffy's figure appeared before Kid again as if by teleportation.This time, he didn't even use his fruit ability. He simply clenched a fist wreathed in pitch-black Armament Haki and punched Kid hard in the abdomen.Pfft!Kid's eyes bulged, and he spat out a mixture of gastric juice and blood. The massive mechanical arm instantly collapsed into a rain of countless metal pieces. He curled up like a shrimp, slowly sank to his knees, and finally lost consciousness completely, falling face-first onto the ground.Only then did the metal objects, no longer controlled by magnetism, fall like a rainstorm, clattering and clanging as they obscured part of the view.Amidst the falling metal rain, everyone saw Luffyslowly return the magic intent—which had been unsheathed at some point—to its scabbard, the movement smooth and natural.Kid hadn't even mastered basic Haki; his threat level compared to the enemies Luffy had faced was probably not even as high as Crocodile's.Luffy's opponents, from Aokiji to Golden Lion Shiki, from Zephyr to Garp—which one of them wasn't a powerhouse who had developed their Haki and fruit abilities to the absolute limit?As a rookie pirate, Kid appeared so naive in front of truly top-tier powerhouses.What Worst Generation?What Supernovas?There is only one 'Worst' in this generation.In the world of pirates, the winner takes all.Seeing that Kid had completely lost consciousness, Luffy did not continue to attack.Except for enemies like Arlong who crossed the line, Luffy wasn't particularly bloodthirsty.Furthermore, there were far more important things right now than teaching a few rookie pirates a lesson.The most important tool in his plan had arrived!At the end of the street, which had become empty due to the conflict, a bizarre scene appeared.The residents of the Lawless Zone had retreated the moment the conflict broke out, but they hadn't gone too far.Sort of.Conflicts on this island were all too normal.One could say they were a common sight.But today, the audacious residents of the Lawless Zone knelt down like a receding tide, their heads bowed low, not daring to look up even an inch.A suffocating silence replaced the previous clamor.A fat Celestial Dragon, wearing the signature transparent bubble helmet and a suit resembling a spacesuit, was sitting on the back of a burly slave.The slave wore a collar around his neck and crawled on all fours like a beast, struggling to move forward.The Celestial Dragon held a chain in one hand and an ice cream in the other, licking it leisurely.He didn't care at all about what was happening here."Tsk, a Celestial Dragon?"Urouge was the first to react, whispering, "What a troublesome race. To dare walk around so openly even in the Lawless Zone. It seems this conflict ends here; we can only kneel and let him pass."Although he spoke of kneeling, his body only lowered slightly; he didn't prostrate himself completely like the surrounding citizens.The other Supernovas who needed to hide had already done so.The Celestial Dragon seemed to be in a bad mood, kicking the slave beneath him while complaining: "Where did Father and Shalria go off to and leave me! It's all your fault for being as slow as a turtle, and you're shaking so much I'm about to throw up!"The black-clad bodyguard beside him answered respectfully: "Saint Charlos, I know their final destination, so please rest assured."Just then, several doctors and nurses pushing a patient on a stretcher rushed out from a nearby alley, looking anxious as if trying to get somewhere quickly.They clearly hadn't noticed the Celestial Dragon's arrival, or perhaps they had, but the patient's condition was critical."Hey, you!"Saint Charlos flew into a rage at the sight, immediately getting off the slave. Facing the doctors' pleas, he kicked the leading doctor to the ground. "Which is more important: the etiquette shown to me, or the life of a commoner?"His gaze then fell on one of the young and beautiful nurses. His eyes lit up behind the bubble helmet, and he pointed at her, commanding the bodyguard: "Take that woman back; I want her to be my new wife!"The surrounding Supernovas watched this scene, most of them expressionless and cold-eyed.In their eyes, Celestial Dragons were like gods of plague.They were useless and only brought trouble.Provoking these guys would bring an Admiral, which was extremely troublesome and not worth it at all.At the very least, the Supernovas didn't think they had the strength to survive against an Admiralright now."Having too many stereotypes is a bad thing; Hachi was absolutely right,"Luffy pressed down on his Straw Hat, the shadow of the brim obscuring his eyes. He let out a low, mocking laugh: "Using these guys to trade with the World Government to get Ace out... Ace will probably be pretty annoyed when he finds out."These people were simply the scum of the earth.Then, under the unbelievable gazes of everyone present, Luffy stepped forward and walked straight toward the Celestial Dragon named Saint Charlos."Hey, commoner! How dare you walk around in front of me!"Seeing that Luffy didn't kneel but instead walked toward him, Saint Charlos felt insulted. He clumsily pulled out a pistol encrusted with jewels and pulled the trigger at Luffy.Bang!Luffy simply tilted his head casually, and the bullet whizzed past his hair.In the next second, he was already in front of Saint Charlos."Eh?"Before Saint Charlos could react, a fist wreathed in black and red arcs of electricity rapidly enlarged in his vision.Boom!With a dull thud, the bubble helmet on Saint Charlos's face shattered instantly. He was sent flying off the ground by the punch, his fat body drawing an arc in the air. Blood sprayed from his nose, and he likely lost several teeth before landing precisely like a bag of trash at Zoro's feet."He's all yours, Zoro," Luffy said, shaking his hand.
