~clang!~
There was a huge sound, and Basire's barrier easily blocked Arlong's big saw blade, Kiribachi.
"Scum! Is this the power of the fish-men you are proud of?"
Basire looked at Arlong with a sneer, pushed the sword away, and immediately slashed at him with the Sandai Kitetsu in his hand.
"Hmph! We fish-men are born with strength ten times stronger than humans! We are the noblest race!"
Arlong saw that Basire was a difficult opponent with a Devil Fruit Power, so he immediately tried to lead him close to the sea. As long as he was at sea, he could easily kill this Devil Fruit user!
"Huh? Then what kind of rubbish nobles do you think the Celestial Dragons who enslave your race are? How do they compare with you, a noble fish-man?"
'Barrier: Death Duel Cage!'
Basire crossed the index and middle fingers of his left hand and drew a frame. A huge rectangular barrier suddenly appeared around him, trapping him and Arlong in the middle, completely cutting off any escape.
"What! You actually... dare to scold the Celestial Dragons?"
Arlong looked at Basire in disbelief, and even felt a hint of admiration in his heart. However, he quickly annihilated this emotion. Every human being is his enemy!
Arlong still didn't believe he couldn't do anything and tried his best to hack at the transparent barrier walls created by Basire. In the end, he used too much force and broke a tooth of the big saw sword Kiribachi.
"It seems I have to kill you to break this prison!"
Arlong also reacted quickly. He knew that he could not break this barrier. He once followed the Sun Pirates and encountered many seemingly unstoppable Devil Fruit Powers, but in the end they all fell in the hands of their superior fish-men!
"Yes, killing me can indeed break the death duel cage. However, today you have no other choice but to die!"
A red light flashed in Basire's eyes, and he prepared to slash with Sandai Kitetsu. Today he will kill this fish-man and even if Jinbei, the knight of the sea comes, it will be useless!
"Arrogant human! Then I will let you know the terror of our fish-men!"
Arlong smiled ferociously, and then raised the big saw blade that had a broken tooth, and slashed with it. The huge force caused the big saw blade to make a large arc.
"Then let me see it! Scumbag fishman!"
'Basic sword skills: Discount Divine Departure!'
Basire accelerated with all his speed and then suddenly paused strongly, leaving a huge hole in the ground. Stones flew everywhere in an instant, and using the momentum, Sandai Kitetsu struck with terrifying force from bottom to top, creating a curved arc.
Arlong held up the big saw sword in both hands, jumped up high, and wanted to use the power of the dive to split Basire in two pieces!
~Clang!~
~Pfft!~
The collision between Basire and Arlong was certainly not as terrifying as Roger and Whitebeard in One Piece, nor is it as terrifying as their Conqueror's Haki intertwined airborne stalemate.
Their contact was only for a moment, and the big saw sword Kiribachi was cut off by Sandai Kitetsu that was covered with Armament Haki. The terrifying slash reached Arlong's body, cutting from the abdomen to his chin, and his serrated nose was chopped off.
Because of how powerful Arlong's dive was, the damage he took was actually doubled!
~boom!~
Arlong was violently smashed into the transparent barrier, causing a second serious injury.
This explosive scene made Hatchi and Kuroobi widen their eyes. Their brother Arlong was actually defeated!
Nami and Nojiko, who had just arrived, covered their mouths and looked excitedly at Basire who had just defeated Arlong.
Their village can really be liberated from the Arlong pirates today!
"Come on! Stand up! Let me see your noble head!!!"
Basire shouted with a grin on his face, and then dragged his cursed sword over slowly, every step filling Arlong with a sense of oppression.
"Uha~, how could you... Armament Haki...?"
He vomited blood and there was a hint of fear in his eyes. Why is there someone with Armament Haki in a weak place like East Blue?
Not many people in the Grand Line even know how to use Armament Haki. Only the strong pirates in the New World generally possess this terrifying power.
"You dare to be so arrogant in a place like East Blue, but in the New World, even in Paradise, you are just trash!"
"A noble race? You seem to have forgotten the origin of the sun tattoo on your chest. If you have the guts, go kill a Celestial Dragon!"
Basire stepped on Arlong's wound, causing him to grimace in pain and turn pale, but there was endless anger in his eyes.
The sun tattoo of the Sun Pirates was originally intended to cover up the 'Hoof of the Celestial Dragons' that was branded on his previous Captain, Fisher Tiger when he was a slave.
The fish-men joined the Sun Pirates one after another because they admired Fisher Tiger who dared to resist the Celestial Dragons, and they also got this sun tattoo as a sign of camaraderie.
"Unforgivable! You humans will be overwhelmed by the wrath and power of the fish-men!!"
'Shark on Tooth!'
The teeth in Arlong's mouth grew wildly, he launched himself to bite Basire on his right leg, trying to completely destroy Basire's leg.
'Barrier: Diamond Leg!'
Basire allowed Arlong to bite his leg. The terrifying bite force caused the Arlong's shark teeth to break, causing countless shark teeth to fly away.
"Death in madness is not a blessing."
Basire raised the Sandai Kitetsu high, his eyes full of murderous intent, and stabbed it into Arlong's head. He held the handle of the knife tightly with both hands and turned it counterclockwise two and a half times, completely destroying his brain.
The madly biting Arlong also stopped in an instant and fell limply at Basire's feet. His blood shone on Sandai Kitetsu's blade, and then was slowly absorbed, which looked quite eerie.
"Arlong is dead!!"
Nami and Nojiko screamed wildly and burst into tears. The murderer of their adoptive mother Bell-mère was finally dead, and Cocoyashi Village was about to be liberated!
The villagers who were prepared to fight for their home with their lives cried wildly, releasing the repressed emotions they had held over the years.
"No! Brother Arlong!!"
Kuroobi, Chew and Hatchi all looked at the dead Arlong with fear and sadness. They didn't expect that he would die so quickly, they were so sure of his victory and never expected such an outcome!
Aren't Basire and Arlong both pirates with a bounty of 20 million?
Then why is the gap in their strength so big!
"Hey! Don't worry! You are going to hell too!"
Kuro smiled cruelly, turned into an afterimage in an instant, and launched an inhumane and silent dismemberment move against Kuroobi.
He could spare Pearl once because he could join their crew as a trainee, but they had already been ordered to kill these fish-men by Basire, so he would not show any mercy.
On the other side, Eldoraggo was also merciless and directly destroyed the upper body of Chew. Even if some villagers wanted to exchange the body for its bounty, the Marine probably wouldn't recognize it!
Only the Octopus Hatchi didn't die on the spot. He was chopped off six times by Zoro, leaving a huge wound on his chest. His wound spewed blood and he went into shock. Then he just lay on the ground with a weak breath.
Basire pulled out the Sandai Kitetsu and picked up the corpse of Arlong.
"Your 20 million bounty is your limit, but my 20 million bounty is only because you, the highest bounty criminal in East Blue, limit Marine's judgment of me."
Basire unlocked the death duel cage, threw Arlong's body in front of Nami and the others, and then walked to the port with a cold face, because there were still fish-men returning one after another.
Today, he wants Sandai Kitetsu to drink the blood of these fish-men to become stronger again!
