Chapter 131 Kizaru Arrives
Chapter 131 Kizaru Arrives
Just then, Luo Tian and his group slowly strolled out of the auction house.
Perona's large eyes suddenly caught sight of the pacifists standing not far away, and in an instant, a wave of fear washed over her.
Her eyes widened as she stared in disbelief at the enormous creature before her, the terrifying scene of being mercilessly swatted away by the bear involuntarily flashing through her mind.
Her body trembled uncontrollably. Perona, like a frightened fawn, stumbled to Luo Tian's side, clutching his clothes tightly as if they were her only lifeline.
Luo Tian, who had been watching Perona closely, immediately noticed her unusual behavior. He stopped, turned around, and looked tenderly at the trembling Perona.
He reached out and gently stroked Perona's head, softly comforting her.
"It's okay, don't be afraid, it's not a bear."
However, Perona was still shaken and stammered:
"But...but this clearly looks like a bear!"
Her gaze remained fixed on the pacifist, her eyes filled with terror and confusion.
Luo Tian smiled slightly and patiently explained.
"Don't worry. These are actually humanoid weapons created by the World Government in the shape of bears, called Pacifistas. Although they look similar, they don't actually have real life or consciousness."
After hearing Luo Tian's words, Perona's fear lessened slightly, but she was still somewhat skeptical.
At that moment, Luo Tian stopped talking and walked straight toward the pacifists.
He suddenly swung his right fist and smashed it into the pacifist's chest.
With a loud bang, Luo Tian punched a huge hole through the pacifist's incredibly hard chest.
At the entrance of the cave, countless densely packed mechanical parts were exposed, and they occasionally flashed with dazzling electric light.
Luo and Kid, who witnessed all of this, were stunned. They stared at Luo Tian with their mouths agape, completely unable to believe what they were seeing.
Such formidable strength is truly breathtaking.
After all, although Kidd and Qiangbaru had just defeated a pacifist, it wasn't as easy as Luo Tian's method.
Then look at Perona. When she saw the pacifist collapse to the ground, revealing the huge hole, her tense nerves finally relaxed completely.
She let out a long sigh of relief, and a bright smile returned to her face.
On the other side, Kizaru's tall and imposing figure appeared.
He held the Den Den Mushi expressionlessly, a deep voice emanating from it.
"Hello? This is Kizaru. What's the situation with the Marines stationed here?"
Surprisingly, there was no response at all on the other end of the phone.
Just then, in a dark corner not far away, two figures were trembling as they watched Kizaru.
The two were pirates, and when they realized that the person who came was actually a renowned Marine Admiral, they couldn't help but feel endless fear.
One of the pirates lowered his voice and spoke to his companion beside him.
"My God! That person is actually Admiral Kizaru! Why are you still standing there like an idiot with your gun raised?!"
However, the other pirate, though trembling uncontrollably, stubbornly insisted.
"So what if he's a naval admiral? We can't just sit here and wait to die!"
With that, he pulled the trigger with trembling hands, and a bullet whistled out, heading straight for Kizaru's head.
The unexpected happened—the bullet pierced through Kizaru's head without any resistance, as if he were just a phantom.
The two pirates stared wide-eyed, unable to believe what they were seeing.
After a brief moment of shock, they finally realized that their attack could not harm Kizaru at all, so they turned around and ran away without hesitation.
Unfortunately, how could their speed compare to Kizaru's speed, who possessed the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit?
In the blink of an eye, Kizaru caught up with the two of them like lightning.
He calmly extended a hand and gently placed it on the shoulder of one of the pirates.
The pirate instantly felt an immense pressure, his legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground.
Kizaru looked down at the two disheveled pirates from his high vantage point and slowly began to speak.
"Don't run away, I just wanted to ask you for some information."
The two pirates only saw a flash of golden light before their eyes, then their eyes rolled back and they fell straight backward, crashing heavily to the ground with a thud. They were so frightened that they fainted.
Kizaru didn't even glance at them again, his gaze instantly shifting to the other side.
Standing there was a tall, golden-phoenix-like man—the supernova Hawkins, the guy with the Straw-Straw Fruit ability.
He had his eyes closed, was muttering incantations, and was holding cards in his hand, seemingly performing some kind of mysterious divination ritual.
Not long after, Hawkins opened his eyes, a confident smile on his face, and muttered to himself.
"It seems my life is not meant to end today."
However, before he could finish speaking, he felt a powerful aura sweep over him like a whirlwind.
Looking up, he saw that Kizaru had somehow appeared in front of him.
Kizaru looked down at Hawkins with a mocking smile on his face and slowly began to speak.
"Don't think I'll let you so-called supernovas off easily. Basil Hawkins, the magician with a bounty of 249 million Berries, have you ever experienced the speed of light? Speed is power."
After saying that, Kizaru raised his leg, and his left leg transformed into a dazzling golden light, kicking towards Hawkins.
This kick was incredibly fast; the golden flash streaked across the night sky like lightning, creating a sharp gust of wind and a powerful shockwave.
Despite Kizaru's swift attack, Hawkins remained completely calm.
In an instant, countless golden straws surged from his body, intertwining to form a scarecrow that stood in front of him.
With a loud "bang," Kizaru's Flash Kick slammed into the scarecrow.
The golden flash pierced straight through the wall.
Surprisingly, Hawkins managed to withstand Kizaru's attack.
Hawkins gritted his teeth, his arms trembling slightly from the immense impact, but he remained standing firmly.
Looking at Kizaru in front of him, he couldn't help but chuckle.
"As expected of an admiral from the Marine Headquarters, his strength is indeed extraordinary."
