Chapter 118-119

"Three Headquarters Vice-Admirals are really hard to deal with."

Far away from the battlefield where he fought against the three Vice Admirals, Ross quickly landed on the ground, slightly staggering and muttering when he landed.

At this time, the wounds on his shoulder and the wound on his fist had all healed up and almost all the b.l.o.o.d.y condensed blood had fallen off, but his forehead was covered with a drip of fine sweat stains due to excessive consumption of stamina.

Doberman, Momonga, and Cancer were recently promoted Headquarters Vice-Admiral and there was still a slight gap between their strength and that of a veteran Vice-Admiral who had at least 9 years of experience, If they were veteran Vice Admirals then Ross would not have won even if he activated his "Tenacious" talent.

Even to the extent that.

If they were senior Headquarters Vice-Admiral, then two of them would have been sufficient to completely subdue Ross.

"Anyway, I was able to defeat them this time."

Ross slowly walked towards the sh.o.r.e where Ghost Shadow s.h.i.+p was. The last b.l.o.o.d.y battle with Momonga and others had almost exhausted the part of stamina that had risen after he had activated the "Tenacious" talent. Otherwise, he would not have noticed that the two Headquarters Rear Admirals were approaching and escaped directly.

Headquarters Rear Admiral is still eligible to intervene with Vice-Admiral's Battle.

Ross pushed himself to his limit to win this fight, if the Momonga and others have brought two additional Headquarters Rear Admiral, then the outcome of the battle would have been very different.

Naturally.

With Gravity Distortion's flying ability and his slightly faster speed than that of three Headquarters Vice-Admirals, Ross immediately escaped with the help of his ability once he senses that he has no chance of winning. Three Headquarters Vice-Admiral can't stop him with flying ability at all.

As for the activation of the 'Tenacious' talent, this is also within Ross's budget. He thought about whether to activate this talent a long time ago, but it has not been implemented.

Physical Enhancement is one of the three main talents of the General Department, which is a comprehensive enhancement of the body, while Tenacious is a talent branch under the Physical Enhancement.

Compared to Physical Enhancement, 'Tenacious' specializes in the stamina and resilience, It provides a big stamina boost to Ross and it is also capable of bearing Distortion power overload and healing Ross of any hidden injuries!

There was no system sound in his ear that indicates to defeat of Marines and he didn't get any rewards. Ross shook his head and felt his stamina recovering little by little. He took a deep breath and walked forward.

On the coast.

The Ghost Shadow s.h.i.+p is quietly docked on a sandy beach. On the side of the Ghost Shadow s.h.i.+p, there are a lot of Marine soldiers lying on the ground. The Battle here is still intense.

Marine's three Headquarters Rear Admirals led a group of elite Marines and they are fighting against Laffitte and others, although the Marines side had lost a lot of soldiers, the current situation is very unfavorable for Laffitte and others.

Both Laffitte and Robin have the ability to be fearless of ordinary army tactics. Marine initially swarmed in and suffered a big loss, but the three Headquarters Rear Admirals are not just simple Marines.

Whiz! Whiz!

Laffitte is moving like a ghost and at the same time he occasionally fires his guns to support Robin as he fought a Headquarters Rear Admiral.

Robin struggled under the attack of a Headquarters Rear Admiral. This Rear Admiral is a pure-body type powerhouse and not a swordsman. The advantage is that he is not a big threat to her Flower-Flower Fruit (Hana Hana no Mi). But the disadvantage is that she cannot defeat him by using her Flower-Flower Fruit (Hana Hana no Mi).

On the other side.

Trafalgar Law joined forces with Xilu to fight the last Headquarters Rear Admiral.

Xilu is a sailor brought by Ross from the Sky island. He has Observation Haki and strong physique. He uses an axe as a weapon and can withstand the attack of the Headquarters Rear Admiral with Law's ability as support.

However.

Law is too young and even if he is only supporting from the side and not fighting the frontal combat, he is breathing heavily and his forehead overflows with sweat.

He took a deep breath and turned his wrists. Surgeon-Surgeon Fruit's ability was activated. He suddenly swapped the Headquarters Rear Admiral location with the sand next to Xilu, causing the Headquarters Rear Admiral to receive Xilu's big axe.

Qing!

The Headquarters Rear Admiral, with a cold gaze, blocked the big axe with his sword which resulted in him staggering slightly and then he suddenly attacked Law with his sword energy.

The sword energy cut a crack more than ten meters in length on the beach and Law did not hesitate to re-stimulate his ability to avoid the chop, but the sweat on his forehead was increasing.

"If it drags on like this, it will be more and more disadvantageous…"

He looked at the battlefield with great dignity. Robin and his side fought bitterly. If Laffitte hadn't intervened from time to time and provide some help, they would have been defeated a long time ago and this continuous support also made it difficult for Laffitte to defeat the Headquarters Rear Admiral quickly.

It's all so hard here, Ross's troubles are probably even bigger.

Law's heart sank to the bottom. He was indeed close to his revenge on Ross's s.h.i.+p but the danger he encountered also increased a lot. Originally, he dealt with some bounty hunters at most, but now he was confronted with Marine Headquarters Rear Admiral, a character of this rank is someone he cannot defeat!

If not for the abilities of Surgeon-Surgeon Fruit, he would not even have the qualification to intervene in this fight.

Whiz! Whiz!

Three Headquarters Rear Admirals kept attacking, forcing Robin and others to resist pa.s.sively. Only Laffitte could spare his hands, but he could not deal with three Headquarters Rear Admirals alone.

And just as the situation became more and more unfavorable, Robin's Rear Admiral, who was trying to suppress Robin suddenly heard the sound of the Den Den Mus.h.i.+ in his pocket.

"Huh?"

His brows were slightly wrinkled and his fists slightly paused. Instead of taking out Den Den Mus.h.i.+, he tapped his pocket directly.

"Rear Admiral Jon, what's the situation there?"

"It's almost over."

Jon responded quietly as he kicked a chop at Robin.

"Not finished yet?!"

A repressed and low voice came from the Den Den Mus.h.i.+. After a pause, the voice became serious and said: "Vice-Admiral Momonga has given his orders, everyone will retreat immediately!"

The voice came from Jon's pocket and was clearly captured by Robin and Laffitte, who were present.

"Whoop…"

Laffitte was a little stunned and he did not know what to think, But after some time the corner of his mouth was raised in a strange curve and Robin's slightly dignified and tense expression was also slightly relieved.

Jon and two other Rear Admiral heard the voice and all of them were stunned.

"Hey, what the h.e.l.l are you saying? We will be able to defeat them in under a minute. Why are you telling us to retreat? Is this really Vice-Admiral Momonga's command?!

Den Den Mus.h.i.+'s voice paused, seemingly hesitating, but did not explain the reasons for the retreat, but solemnly exclaimed:

"Do you want to question Vice-Admiral's orders?"

The news that three Vice-Admiral had been defeated by Ghost Hand Ross would be a devastating blow to Marines morale and he dared not announce it to the battlefield where Jon and others were.

Jon listened to the harsh voice coming from the Den Den Mus.h.i.+, but he could not help staring in place, somewhat confused for a while and looked towards his other two companions.

Both of them also showed a trace of confusion.

Retreating at this time will give the Ghost Hand Pirates a chance to breathe and they may even escape by their s.h.i.+p, Their s.h.i.+p is extremely fast and once they sail at the sea, Marines will not have any chance to capture them.

"… Obey orders and withdraw!"

Although he didn't know what was going on, one of the Rear Admiral took a deep breath after a few seconds of silence and he was quite clear about the seriousness of the crime of disobeying orders.

Jon and the other man looked at each other and saw each other's eyes. After biting his teeth, he looked at Robin who was standing not far away. His muscles were tense and he took a big step forward.

"At least let me capture the Devil Child…"

Whiz!

He used his full power to attack Robin, He was planning to knock her unconscious with a single attack and then capture her.

Robin's eyes were fixed, her hands crossed in front of her chest and countless arms emerged forming a huge palm blocking Jon.

Bang!

However, the huge palm was only a slight hindrance and was crushed by Jon's punch turning into countless petals, Jon then rushed toward Robin.

"ROOM!"

Not far from the situation, Law saw Robin's situation and the demon knife in his hand moved as he used his abilities to try and save Robin, but as soon as his ability was released, a sign of collapse appeared and his ability collapsed.

At the same time, Law's body also involuntarily fell to the front and he instantly fell to the ground in a kneeling position, barely clenching his sword for support.

Did I over consumed my stamina?

He felt the heavy feeling coming from his body and looked up at Robin.

Whiz!

Fortunately, Laffitte was there. He dodged and came to Robin, waving a red stick and stopped Jon.

"Whoop, if you hurt Miss Intelligence, Captain would be furious."

Jon's face became gloomy as he watched Laffitte defending Devil Child and his companions did not deal with Laffitte.

"Captain?"

"Your Captain, I'm afraid he's been escorted to Battles.h.i.+p now!"

After that, Jon shook his head and was ready to turn around. His companions were not going to do help him and he could not deal with Laffitte alone and catch Devil Child.

But at this time.

He suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Robin put her arms down and Laffitte took back this red cane and the corner of his mouth was slightly raised, both of them were looking at something behind him.

Not only Robin and Laffitte but also Law who was half kneeling on the ground and Xilu, with a huge axe, looked behind him. Law breathed softly, while Xilu grinned.

In the eerie silence.

Jon turned his head bit by bit and looked in the direction that Robin and others were looking at. At the end of the line of sight, on the beach about 100 meters away, a figure appeared and was walking slowly towards them.

Jon's pupils shrank sharply when he saw the figure. He stuck in his voice with an "impossible" sound, and a cold feeling rose from his back.

It's not just Jon

Even his two companions, as well as the rest of Marine's soldiers, stared at the figure that came along, with an incredible look on their faces.

Although the figure was slightly beaten up and there were blood spots on his body, but he was recognized by almost everyone here, he is the reason that they came here for…

Ghost Hand Ross!

"How is it possible, Weren't the Vice-Admirals containing him? How could he appear here, What happened to the Vice-Admirals?!" Jon's face changed dramatically.

At the same time.

The other two Rear Admirals were also shocked. They suddenly thought of the inexplicable retreat orders. If Ross escaped from the encirclement, Vice-Admirals would definitely chase him and remind them to be careful about Ross and stop Ross.

But now, Ross is here and what they receive here is not a careful and blocked order, but an order to retreat immediately.

What does this mean?

The three Rear Admiral didn't dare to think further. They only felt that a cold feeling spread all the way from the soles of their feet to the top of their head.

Looking at Ross who was slowly walking towards them, three Headquarters Rear Admiral felt a little depressed and Marines felt a heavy pressure on his body.

"…Retreat! Retreat!"

No one knows who shouted but many Marines responded immediately and fled.

Jon's heart beat violently several times, but he also retreated and rushed out trying to follow his two companions.

But.

Just as he tried to escape, the beach in front of him suddenly picked up like a wave and swept across him.

Jon's speed dropped sharply as his head crashed into the sand. He was shocked and struggled hard. He rushed out of the sand and headed upward on Geppo(Moonwalk).

But just then Ross's figure appeared in front of him, floating in mid-air, looking at him with indifferent eyes.

Jon only felt a violent shock on his body and his heart felt like it would jump out from his chest, his whole body turned cold and he almost fell directly from the air.

In horror, he used GeppĹŤ (Moonwalk) to escape Ross but Ross's fist has already fallen on him.

"Armed Tekkai (Iron Body)!"

Jon roared and utilized Tekkai (Iron Body) from Marine's Rokus.h.i.+ki to its limit, along with Armament Haki and he raised his arms to try to block Ross's blow.

Bang!

Ross punched between his arms and a terrifying force rushed down tearing apart Jon's defense.

Even a Headquarters Vice-Admiral, such as Momonga struggled to resist Ross's Fist head-on and had to be back off to avoid it, not to mention a Headquarters Rear Admiral.
