This street had been utterly destroyed; the buildings lining both sides had collapsed in the fierce battle. The wreckage was chaotic, with sloping structures and ruins filling the area with rolling stones.
The ground, once covered in stones, was now a maze of dense, intertwining cracks. As the billowing smoke and dust began to disperse, everyone finally caught sight of the battle's aftermath——
When they saw Abaro Pizarro's miserable state, shock rippled through the crowd!
"This battle ended too quickly, right?! He's a sub-captain of the Blackbeard Pirates! He barely lasted against Marco!"
Someone whispered in disbelief.
Many others shared this sentiment.
"It's not that Abaro Pizarro is weak; he bombarded that pirate with a bounty of 500 million and took him out of action! This kind of opponent... weak?! Not at all! It's not that Abaro Pizarro is too weak; it's that Marco is way too strong!!!"
People were exclaiming as they gasped in astonishment at the powerful force and formidable techniques displayed by Marco!
"Look! Abaro Pizarro's chest… that's a fist mark!"
Many eyes focused on Abaro Pizarro's chest, where a deep fist-shaped blood hole was visible. In that imprint, hot, boiling flames writhed, burning inside Abaro Pizarro like magma!
Wow~~!
An uproar erupted!
Abaro Pizarro was still alive, thanks to his strong vitality and robust physique!
Yes, the burning flames were continuously destroying his… heart!
"Now… do you still want my Immortal Phoenix ability?"
Marco's voice rang out, and the raging flames swirling around him danced wildly as a pair of massive flame wings, spanning over twenty meters, erupted from his back. With a powerful flap, he soared into the air, looking down at Abaro Pizarro struggling below.
It was precisely what Marco had anticipated.
The members of the Blackbeard Pirates had always sought to obtain his Immortal Phoenix ability, constantly plotting to kill him!
However, due to the treacherous conditions of the previous sea area and the dangers lurking within, they had spent a lot of time searching before finally deciding to pursue other abilities.
But Marco knew that even Blackbeard himself never expected him to take the initiative against the Blackbeard Pirates!
Hunt or be hunted?
Marco had chosen to seize the hunt, proactively targeting the members of the Blackbeard Pirates. In this life, he would not leave his fate—his life and death—in the hands of others.
For all who wished for his downfall, there was only one outcome: Marco would kill them!
Abaro Pizarro and Burgess were merely the beginning!
The Blackbeard Pirates were at the threshold of destruction!
Burgess was already dead, his bulging eyes frozen in horror and shock at the moment of his demise; he… had been killed with a single punch!
Crash~~!
Abaro Pizarro, blasted into the thick wall, endured the severe agony as he broke free from the debris. He pressed a hand against the fist mark that continuously burned through his internal organs; his fierce visage twisted in agony as he raised his head with malicious intent, glaring at Marco in the air. "Immortal Phoenix Marco… you're indeed strong, stronger than me and him…"
"Ahem~~!"
Abaro Pizarro coughed violently, spitting out a mouthful of blood, the wound where he pressed against the fist mark gushing forth with crimson fluid!
"Ah~~!"
The intense pain forced Abaro Pizarro to roar at the top of his lungs, the sound echoing throughout the island!
Not far away, a figure wearing a pilot's hat, dressed in a dark blue prison officer uniform and holding a cigar, heard this roar. His brows furrowed, and he looked up at the sky, just in time to see Marco hovering above, his massive flaming wings spanning out behind him!
In his fierce eyes, a surge of murderous intent appeared. "Immortal Phoenix Marco?"
This person was Shiryu of the Rain, who had arrived from the nearby sea to join Abaro Pizarro and Burgess as per their advance agreement!
Rumble~~!
Shiryu of the Rain moved with incredible speed, leaving a trail of afterimages as he instantly appeared on the devastated street where the battle had raged.
"Huh?"
Marco was the first to notice, his gaze falling on the newcomer!
Whoosh!
Many pirates in the distance had their eyes on this new arrival. Anyone bold enough to enter the battlefield so brazenly would inevitably capture everyone's attention!
"That guy… who is he?!"
"Look at his fierce and brutal expression; he's definitely another murderer!"
As the crowd shouted in astonishment, Abaro Pizarro, seriously injured and barely clinging to consciousness, lifted his head to see his ally. His eyes sparkled with hope. "Shiryu of the Rain… you're finally here!"
Wow~~~!
The moment many pirates in the distance heard the name "Shiryu of the Rain," they erupted into an uproar!
Shiryu of the Rain, captain of the Blackbeard Pirates' Second Ship! The former warden of the Impel Down prison; it was due to his presence and that of Magellan that the prison was referred to as the 'copper wall and iron wall'!
This man was extremely murderous and bloodthirsty!
After joining Blackbeard, Shiryu of the Rain was responsible for the deaths of countless pirates. His thirst for blood knew no bounds; it did not matter if the opponent was powerful or weak—he would kill anyone he desired, from captain-level pirates down to ordinary, defenseless civilians, leaving no survivors!
Just days ago, there were rumors of an entire town being slaughtered… the perpetrator was none other than… Shiryu of the Rain!
"Hiryu… kill him!"
Abaro Pizarro pointed at Marco with a grotesque expression, knowing that Shiryu of the Rain's strength far exceeded his own.
"Is this your last line of defense?"
Marco's face lit up with a grin, a smile filled with murderous intent!
Rumble~~!
Without hesitation, Marco made his move, swooping down sharply. In the blink of an eye, he was above Abaro Pizarro's head. "You… can die!"
"You can't kill him!"
Almost simultaneously, as Marco descended, Shiryu of the Rain also engaged, his voice cutting through the air as he attacked. The blood-infused demon knife sparked with a dreadful energy… killing intent unleashed!
Shiryu of the Rain was incredibly fast; both his body and the speed of his demon knife moved so swiftly that ordinary eyes struggled to perceive his movements, leaving behind a trail of crimson afterimages.
However, Marco was faster. The target he aimed to eliminate… had no chance of survival!
Boom~~!
As their voices echoed, Abaro Pizarro was instantly blown away by Marco's thunderous momentum! Abaro Pizarro's body exploded in an instant, showering the sky with blood!
"No one will save those I choose to kill, not even Blackbeard himself… No exceptions!"
