The Paper Fruit Among the Pirates

"Am I dazzled..."

Sanji took a puff of his cigarette and turned to look at Zoro beside him hesitantly.

"That's Roman, right?"

"That's right,"

It was rare for Zoro not to argue with Sanji, but to look at the man standing on the top of the white vine with a knife in both hands.

"It's Roman. But his condition..."

It's hard to say, but now Roman looks rosy, and his momentum is like a wolf!

Well, it's obviously different from the usual Roman. Now his expression and momentum are full of greed, brutality, and cruelty...

Snapped,

"That guy is not Roman."

Luffy also landed on a white 'leaf', looking seriously at the haughty figure standing on the top of the vine.

"Everyone!"

With the help of "A Thief's Ultimate Art" that was suddenly 'charged', Nami was carried up by the wind.

"Be careful, Roman is out of control!"

Nami waved this manual in her hand, and quickly explained to everyone: "Roman just drank the 'Cellular Will Awakening Potion' developed by the Navy, and was shocked by the instinct of the whole body's cells, and became full of biological desires——"

"What is biological desire?" X3

Facing the problem of the three combat strength of the Straw Hats, Nami had to give an example.

"For example: eat meat, become stronger, women~~~"

"Meat! I want to eat meat too!"

Luffy opened his arms and shouted.

"Get stronger? Sounds good!"

Sauron held the knife and fought vigorously.

"Beauty? Where~~"

Sanji instantly twisted into noodles and swayed.

·······? ? !

This straw hat group is hopeless, tired, destroy it.

Nami clutched her forehead and wanted to cry, but do these guys know the danger of the current situation——

"Ahhh, help, help! Come and save me!!!"

A burst of crying broke the tranquility of the battlefield separated by Roman's move, and Rob Lucci took out a phone bug with an ugly expression.

"Sir..."

"Lu Qi? That's great, come and save me! I was killed by that devil girl—"

"Pfft,—ah! I got a sword in my ass, I'm going to die!!"

What comes from the phone bug is running, hacking, crying, and the desperation that is about to overflow the phone bug. You can imagine how miserable the situation of the man named Spandam is at this time without looking.

? !

This trash sir! Even a woman handcuffed to Hailoushi...

Wait, is that Nicole Robin trained in sea floor stone suppression? ! Careless——

"Save me, save me quickly! Lu Qi!!"

The guy on the other side of the phone bug seems to be being chased by a monster, and he can't wait to get directly from the phone bug.

"Save me quickly! Otherwise, I will destroy your hometown—"

! ?

For a moment, Rob Lucci's pupils expanded and contracted violently, and then he took a deep look at the other CP9 members who fell in the ruins, and had to turn around and fly towards the Tower of Hesitation with moon steps! And the Straw Hats didn't stop him, because:

"Wait... see me... how dare you not kneel!?"

Faced with waves of violent murderous aura that can tear the liver and gallbladder of ordinary people, coming from "Roman" with overwhelming momentum, Sanji threw away his cigarette butt and complained.

"It's hard to believe that Roman, who is usually so rational, becomes 'crazy' like this."

"So strong murderous intent,"

Sauron cracked the corner of his mouth, revealing his white teeth, like a monster!

"It seems that I can finally have a good fight with Roman—"

"I... we... what should we do?"

Usopp, who is already hugging Chopper... No, the sniper king is about to cry. He can still muster up courage in the face of the enemy, but facing his main staff who suddenly convulsed...

"How about you take a recording shell and record Roman's words and play it to him?"

? ? ?

"Forgive me, I don't want to be trained to death by Roman—"

"presumptuous!"

Just when the murderous aura pervading the battlefield became stronger and more overwhelming, Nami, Usopp, and Chopper began to feel palpitations and trembling, and when they couldn't breathe; Sanji and Zoro, who bore the brunt, tensed their hands When the legs and the weapons in the hands were clenched to the limit, cold sweat oozes unconsciously.

Then·····

The killing intent disappeared!

It can be said that it suddenly disappeared completely without a trace, like an overwhelming tsunami thundering down, but it turned into ethereal water vapor the moment it rushed to the front! The strong drop makes people feel dizzy like a sudden brake, and there is a faint illusion that the nerves are stretched to the limit and are about to break.

Although Judiciary Island is a "Land of Light" without night, it is now out-and-out night in other places, and the sea breeze is blowing. After passing, it brought wisps of dust, like mist and smoke.

Disappeared together with the murderous intent was Roman who was standing on the top just now!

"Be careful, he's just..."

Relying on the characteristics of "The Art of Thieves" in her hand being connected with Roman's blood, Nami sounded a reminder at the first time, but it was too late.

Almost at the same time, Sanji kicked back suddenly, and with an ear-piercing roar, he kicked out circles of white waves in the air! but--

Frustrated!

Roman, who was bent into a blank sheet of paper, easily dodged Sanji's kick! At the same time, a faint halo covered Sanji from Roman's left middle with thumb, middle finger and ring finger folded, index finger and little finger raised.

"this is?······"

Silver Fox Fox's 'Slow Light'!

For a moment, Sanji hilariously stopped in the air, as if he had been hit by a hold spell. There is only one thought left in my mind:

It's over!

thirty seconds. Based on Sanji's understanding of Roman, it was enough for him to chop himself into meat sauce, then wash his hands, smoke a cigarette, and move a stool over to see himself turned into dumpling stuffing.

Fortunately, he is not fighting alone.

"Three-sword style-sword wolf style!"

The sword light like soft water poured down and enveloped Sanji. The sword light perfectly avoided Sanji and forced Roman to retreat! ——In other words, Roman took the initiative to back away.

When the knife light fell, Roman's figure suddenly disappeared, just like when he suddenly attacked without warning at first! Almost everyone lost their grasp and sense of his position in an instant, and Sauron's knife light all swung into the air, because Roman had already locked on the next target:

? !

Usopp, who was stiff all over, couldn't even move a finger, a cold voice sounded behind him, and then:

"Boom!"

boom!

A violent explosion burst out in Roman's palm, and was firmly locked in it by his five fingers, and he slapped Usopp's back lightly on the terrifying impact.

click,

In an instant, Usopp bent forward into a 'V' and flew out, with blood gushing from his mouth and nose, and only one question in his head:

Why?

Why did you hit me first——

As soon as it went dark, the long-nosed masked sniper crashed into the ruins of the building.

call out!

"Roman, stop!"

The next moment, an extended fist slammed on the place where Roman was standing, but it only splashed a piece of broken stone and broken bricks in vain.

"Hey, hey, isn't it too ridiculous?"

Sauron bit the words of peace, his face was more severe than ever!

The current Roman not only comes and goes without a trace, but is completely difficult to catch. And the most frightening thing was that he couldn't feel Roman's killing intent! The "knowledge-colored domineering" that was usually trained did not sound any alarm.

This is no longer what you can do by hiding your own killing intent well, but that the other party doesn't regard Usopp as a human being at all! Just like a child enthusiastically disassembling and assembling a toy at will, no matter how much he concentrates on it, the subconscious mind will never have the concept of 'killing' at all.

This is a very extreme mentality, but it is also an extremely dangerous mentality for everyone in the Straw Hats.

The essence of knowledgeable domineering is to 'listen'. At present, the Straw Hats are only in the initial stage of detecting the breath and emotional changes of the surrounding creatures, and using them to predict and avoid danger.

Only by going further can one read the position and number of enemies out of sight, as well as the actions the opponent will take in the next moment. ——Even if the opponent is a robot or a natural disaster!

With the current method of "Roman" expressing his killing intent and releasing it to coerce the Quartet, and the killing intent is restrained like light and dust, everyone in the Straw Hats has no way to be vigilant and alert. Coupled with his elusive skill, it is enough to make anyone die without knowing why.

What's even more frightening is that all the members of the Straw Hats are here, but they can't even make Roman think of 'killing'. What does this mean?

"What the hell are you doing!?"

Luffy stood in front of Roman, keeping the others behind him.

"Be sober, Roman—"

"I am fine."

Once entering the battle, Roman immediately changed into a normal person. The eyes are pure and agile, completely like a naive child - seeing a toy that is quite interesting.

In short, it is another state of desire under the control of 'instinct'.

Desperation!

"very good····"

'Roman' who looked at Luffy parted his mouth, revealing a smile mixed with innocence and cruelty.

"I'm going to... tear you down... all of you!"
