boom~!
Basire's seven-star barrier black blade suddenly struck Crocodile's golden hook, and at this time, an invisible Haki was also wrapped around the golden hook.
Under the oppression of Basire, Crocodile's murderous intent and will were constantly rising, and his courage was also growing, which made him actually reawaken his Haki.
"Yes! Yes! This is how it feels! Keep coming!!"
Basire's passionate shouting and continuous high-intensity close-range physical battle made his eyes flash red with excitement, and his murderous intent and courage continued to skyrocket.
Feeling the pressure from Crocodile, a veteran powerhouse, Basire became more and more excited as they fought, and his mood became better and better.
He actually dispersed the barrier blade and no longer used the power of the seven-star pattern, but used Armament Haki on his fists to fight fiercely with Crocodile.
"Damn you brat! You want to use me as a whetstone?!!"
Crocodile was punched at the corner of his mouth by Basire, and the cigar from his mouth was knocked away. The black fur coat on his body was also already chopped to pieces by Basire.
"You stay at the front of the Grand Line, don't you just want to bully the new pirates? Don't you think you are always invincible?!!"
The scarlet scales on Basire's body have also returned to black. He was constantly squeezing the Haki in his body because he wanted to hone his Haki proficiency through the pressure of this Shichibukai.
"You underestimate me!!"
Crocodile became even more angry. Not only did Basire not use the barrier fruit ability, he also stopped using the weird sword energy and terrifying power. Isn't this an insult to him?
"Then show your skills!! Dog of the world government!!"
Basire had entered a full and passionate fighting state, and all his potential was being squeezed. He was eager to kill this Logia ability user with only his personal Haki.
This increases Basire's murderous aura, making his Armament Haki continuously strengthen, and his Emission Haki attacks were also becoming smoother and more coordinated.
"You little brat! Turn into a mummy!!"
'Ground Death!'
Crocodile activated his maximum sand erosion ability, completely draining all the moisture in the small space of this barrier, and the air became extremely dry.
Even the skin on Basire's body began to wrinkle and shrivel.
boom~!
But the next moment, in the barrier cage, Basire, whose body had turned completely black, was like a rhinoceros charging, hitting Crocodile against the barrier.
Crocodile was knocked against the wall and a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out from his mouth.
"Not enough! Not enough!!"
Basire shouted with red eyes, his armed fists turned into afterimages and kept hitting Crocodile.
The terrifying power made the barrier cage tremble, and the Baroque Gustave, with only one deck left, was also constantly shaking.
Outside, the Dreadnaught Sabre approached the ruined pirate ship again, and the crew of the Big Daddy Pirates were intently watching the fierce battle inside the barrier cage.
The expressions of the crew members varied.
Zoro clenched his fists and looked very calm. He knew that his current strength was still not enough and he needed to become stronger.
Doc Q, Van Augur, and Lafitte showed faint smiles. They were indeed the ones destined to defeat a Shichibukai with a newcomer. This road will become wider and wider in the future!
"I wonder if the captain is interested in becoming a Shichibukai."
Lafitte pressed the brim of his hat and laughed softly, the pale dramatic expression on his face becoming more and more playful.
"Wiiihahaha! As expected of the captain!!"
The brutish crew members such as Burgess and Eldoraggo cheered for Basire. They knew that this trial battle against a Shichibukai would directly turn into a battle of annihilation.
They also didn't expect that Sand Crocodile, a member of the Shichibukai, would be so miserable. Only Crocodile was the only strong person in the entire ship.
It turns out that these Shichibukai are all such weak beings.
So in the future, can we take down two more Shichibukai?
As if seeing that the overall situation was decided, even the large diving ship Bliking lurking on the bottom of the sea emerged from the sea. Together with the Dreadnaught Sabre, they watched the fierce battle between Captain Basire and Sand Crocodile.
The peerless beauty who ate the slippery fruit, the slippery girl Desire, the blonde beauty who ate the Liquid fruit, Honey Queen, these women were screaming sweetly to their Captain and man.
The navigator, the thief cat Nami, and the cook, Carmen, an orange-haired beauty and a red-haired sassy girl, were also waving flags and fans for their captain, jumping and cheering, and the waves were surging.
As if feeling the cheers from the crew, Basire's momentum became more and more powerful!
"Ah! Get away!"
Crocodile's mouth, nose, eyes, and ears were bleeding, and he angrily hit Basire's face with the golden hook.
Ding~!
The poisonous hook suddenly hit Basire's haki-covered face, sending out a shower of sparks, but Basire still waved his fists to hit Crocodile's abdomen.
Bang~!
The golden hook sprayed out a purple poisonous mist, which forced Basire to close his eyes and hold his breath.
And Crocodile forced his elementalization to break free from Basire's crazy suppression.
At this moment, his face was extremely ugly. The bleeding from his seven orifices and the severe injury to his abdomen made him look very pale.
"Kid, for being able to push me to this point, I admit that you are the well-deserved rookie king of this year!"
"Although I want to kill you with my strength, this situation is no longer possible. Thank you for giving me the awareness to become stronger."
"However, I can't die now, I have to go back for revenge!"
Crocodile took off his golden poison hook with his body trembling a little. He stared at Basire and said with gritted teeth.
A large amount of deadly venom in the Golden Poison Hook was poured out, but under Crocodile's devil fruit ability, all the water was absorbed instantly.
The venom has already turned into poisonous mist and poisonous powder before it reached the ground, filling the small barrier cage space in an instant.
"Kid, if you don't open this barrier cage, then you will die!"
Crocodile coughed up blood, his eyes full of danger. Even if Basire did not open the barrier, the barrier would be automatically lifted after Basire was poisoned to death, and he had already taken the antidote.
"I thought you would have some abilities after regaining your strong will. But you disappoint me so much! Crocodile!!"
Basire opened his eyes, which were full of indifference. He was very angry now. This Shichibukai made him extremely dissatisfied.
Crocodile still hasn't used his full strength yet.
Basire ignored the poisonous mist and powder and walked straight towards his opponent. Veins were already appearing on his dark fists.
"Why are you so weak?!!"
Basire yelled angrily, the Emission Haki on his fist surged wildly, he rushed forward at high speed, and blasted away furiously.
