“Steel Bone…Kong?”
Staring at the fleet ahead.
El couldn't help but squint his eyes.
He watched the towering figure at the bow of the lead battleship, a figure both massive and imposing, radiating an aura of authority even without showing anger.
He was somewhat surprised to find that this future Admiral of the Navy headquarters, who would later rise to become the Grand Marshal of the World Government's entire military, was already a candidate for the position of Admiral in the Navy headquarters at this time.
“You lot, get out of the way—"
He couldn't help but smirk, deciding to test the waters first.
Without hesitation, he drew the long sword at his waist and swung it diagonally upward.
His aura steadily intensified.
“El-sama… ”
Seeing this.
Longbread was stunned.
“Get back, don't get in the way… just watch quietly!” But he was immediately dragged backward by Hayrddin, lifted by the collar like a chick being grabbed by a hawk.
They were pulled apart, creating space.
“I'm so envious, when will I be able to master the Elbaph Spear?”
Lingling was filled with envy.
She grabbed the large sword at her waist and mimicked it with a serious expression.
“Lingling, you're a natural monster like El, when you grow up a bit, you should be able to master it!” Gaerz crossed his arms and said irritably: “If anyone should be envious, it's me!”
Lingling, although simple-minded, was extremely quick-witted.
When she trained, she could quickly grasp the key points and tricks that El taught her.
But she was envious of El and Hayrddin to the point of despair.
“The Elbaph Spear?”
Longbread was astonished and somewhat baffled.
But soon, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, his eyeballs almost popping out of their sockets…
“Wei Guo!!”
El's gaze was sharp.
The blade of his sword fiercely slashed forward.
“Whoosh——” The air was distorted, a terrifying sword pressure swept out.
It transformed into a violent cylindrical shockwave, blasting directly towards the lead battleship in the distance.
“What?!”
Longbread's mouth hung open.
His whole body showed an expression of disbelief.
His jaw almost dropped to the ground.
“What was that?”
“Damn it, they're attacking us!”
“Is this the attack of the Fallen Angel El?”
“Hey hey, are you kidding me?”
On the distant fleet.
One by one, the Navy officers were terrified.
They looked in shock at the giant sword energy that had pierced the sky like lightning.
They couldn't believe that the Fallen Angel El, a mere child, could actually unleash such an outrageous attack.
He was attacking them from such a distance.
“Is this… the long spear technique of the Elbaph legend?”
The leading Steel Bone Kong’s pupils contracted: “This little brat…”
“Boom…”
He didn't hesitate.
He slammed his foot down hard.
The waterline of the warship seemed to sink significantly.
“Brush!” The tall figure instantly surged forward.
Facing the seemingly unstoppable, violent sword energy shockwave.
His right fist was wrapped in advanced Armament Haki.
He blasted it out ferociously.
“Kongō Charge!!”
The air was directly crushed.
The powerful Advanced Armament Haki, along with the ferocious momentum, transformed into a violent shockwave, sweeping out.
It collided violently with the cylindrical sword energy shockwave that had pierced through.
“Boom boom…”
A deafening roar.
On the sea, huge waves surged.
“Wooosh…” Visible to the naked eye, air waves rippled out incessantly.
One after another, shocking waves swept in all directions, causing the warships to sway.
Many Navy officers were caught off guard and nearly fell headfirst.
“That guy…”
“He actually blocked El’s Wei Guo!”
“Gulp! Is this the strength of an Admiral candidate?”
Lingling, Hayrddin, Gaerz, and the others couldn't help but widen their mouths in disbelief and stammered.
This was the first time they had seen the Elbaph Spear, which was invincible and unstoppable, being so easily blocked.
“Hiss! To be able to unleash such a shocking attack in one go… is this the secret technique of the Elbaph giants?” Longbread was somewhat shocked.
He had thought that El’s strength would be very strong.
But he didn’t expect that the other party could unleash such an outrageous attack without even using his Devil Fruit power.
It was only because the person sitting across from him was Steel Bone Kong, the Admiral candidate who was only in his early thirties but whose strength was said to be boundless.
If it was an ordinary Navy Vice Admiral, he might not even be able to block such an outrageous attack.
“You guys leave first, I’ll catch up later by following the Life Card!”
El’s eyes were burning.
He stared directly at the imposing figure ahead.
He clenched the blade in his hand, showing a proud fighting spirit, with flames roaring behind him.
“El-sama, isn’t this too risky?” Longbread quickly reminded him: “The opponent is an Admiral candidate with the nickname ‘Monster’ in the Navy, he’s not a regular Navy Headquarters Vice Admiral.”
“Precisely because he's an Admiral candidate, he's worth fighting!”
El sneered.
Seeing Longbread and Gaerz and the others trying to say something else.
He simply waved his hand: “Don’t worry, I’m not being impulsive… I’m not naive enough to think that I can defeat someone like him directly right now!”
“I just want to see how much distance separates me from a monster like him!”
“Besides, if I want to leave, even if he’s an Admiral candidate, he wouldn’t be able to stop me!”
Most importantly.
Wouldn’t it be more interesting to piss off the enemy before leaving?
“Alright, then you be careful, El!”
After spending these days together.
Gaerz naturally understood El’s personality.
Once he had made up his mind, he wouldn’t change it.
“Then El-Oni-chan, you have to be careful!”
Lingling said loudly.
Although she was young and innocent, she wasn’t an idiot.
She could naturally tell that the enemy was very powerful.
“Yeah, don’t worry!”
His wings flapped.
El’s figure soared into the air.
He left the “Demon King Lucifer” ship.
He turned into a blur, rushing towards the distant fleet at an astonishing speed.
“Sea King, take them and go around the area where those warships are!”
El’s voice.
Echoed across this sea.
“Yes, El-sama!”
The Sea Homi immediately turned around on command.
Huge waves pushed the ship in another direction.
“Roar——”
A beastly roar.
In Longbread’s wide-eyed gaze.
The massive, hundreds-of-meters-long feathered serpent god appeared in the sky above.
In a hazy way, clouds from all directions seemed to be gathering at an incredible speed, one after another.
The entire sky began to gradually darken.
“Wooosh…”
The huge feathered serpent god.
Soared across the sky, majestic and imposing.
Its icy snake eyes looked down at the fleet ahead, staring directly at the stout figure leading them.
One blue and one black, two pairs of wings, suddenly flapped: “Steel Bone Kong, is it? Accept this greeting… Stormy Dance!”
“Wooosh…”
“Whoosh… whoosh…”
Along with a violent hurricane.
One after another, shocking wind blades.
They directly cut through the air and blasted towards the fleet ahead.
