Kāchā!

With a slight force from Ross’ fingers, the long sword twisted and broke, At the same time, a twisting force was transmitted along the long blade and bombarded the Captain’s body, letting blood gush out of his mouth as he flew backward.

Then he stepped on his feet and the entire ship again showed strange ripples that spread in all directions. Eventually, countless boards overturned and the entire ship folded violently in the middle and broke apart.

After destroying two Battleships in succession, Ross stood on the broken Battleship and gasped for a moment. After adjusting slightly, he jumped up and landed on the sea.

Destroying Battleship takes less stamina than Ross though.

Despite the enormous burden placed on his physical body by the power of distortion, it took only about 20% of his actual physical strength to destroy two Battleships in such a short period of time.

This consumption is completely affordable.

Whiz!

Ross continues to charge towards the next Battleship.

His body is actually running on the surface of the sea. In the case of Geppō (Moonwalk), the air can become a pedal to step upon, so it is naturally much easier to use seawater as a pedal.

With the power of his current Distortion Fruit, the phantom formed by refracting light can be as far as twenty or thirty meters away from his original body, enough to make the gunfire on the Battleship unable to find his true location.

Crash-Bang!

After an ineffective cannonball fire, Ross stepped up and out of the sea. He jumped up and landed over on the next Battleship.

“He is here!”

“Damn! What should we do?”

Seeing Ross once again ignoring the cannonball fire and jumping up from the sea and onto the Battleship, numerous Marines on the Battleship showed some horror on their faces.

However.

Almost immediately after Ross jumped on the battleship and landed, a single powerful sword energy strike came from the West direction intending to cut his head.

Faced with the sudden attack, Ross did not panic, He hugged his hands from both sides and clamped the sword energy between his palms and then he rotated in the air throwing the sword energy towards the sea.

Sneer!

The sword energy fell into the sea and cut a fissure of more than ten meters in the sea.

Looking at the aftermath of the attack on the sea, Ross' eyes slightly fluctuated. He had guessed who wielded the sword that attacked him. There was no doubt that the only one who could display this level of sword arts was the Rear Admiral Onigumo from the Marine Headquarters.

Ross also had a little impression of Onigumo, He vaguely remembered that during the War of the Best in the original story, Onigumo cooperated with Admiral Kizaru and captured Captain Marco of the First Division of the Whitebeard Pirates by clasping seastone cuffs on his wrist.

Ross turned his head and looked in the direction from where the sword energy came.

There.

A figure is Wearing a Marine Justice coat with a brown-purple hair and a Marine justice plaque embroidered with a military officer’s badge and standing on the top of the cabin. It is the Marine Headquarters Rear Admiral Onigumo!

He held a sword in his hands and was coldly staring at Ross.

“Yes… It’s Rear Admiral Onigumo!”

“Oh, We are saved…”

Many Marines on Battleship did not see when Onigumo arrived on their Battleship, but they were relieved seeing the power displayed by Onigumo’s sword.

Ross’ strength is too terrible for them to resist and the only person that can take him down is the Rear Admiral Onigumo, an elite marine sent by the Marine Headquarters on Grand Line!

As a Rear Admiral of the Marine Headquarter, Onigumo has a prestigious reputation on the Grand Line and he had also defeated pirates with bounties of over 100 million berries so it is natural that he will not have any problems dealing with Ross.

With him on the Battleship, it was like eating a reassurance pill for many Marines present, Their panic and fear faded away and a calm feeling replaced them.

“Ghost Hand Ross…you bastard…”

Onigumo looked at Ross on the deck with cold eyes and said: Do you know how much responsibility I have to take for losing two Battleship!”

At the same time as his last sentence fell he suddenly turned into a shadow, rushing towards Ross, with his sword wrapped in a powerful sword energy force descending at Ross.

Whiz!

Ross’s footsteps turn as he also shows Soru of Marine’s Rokushiki. After avoiding the sword, his body turned as he attacks Onigumo with his one leg.

Onigumo snorted as he blocked the attack with his sword.

Buzz!!

Ross kicked Onigumo’s legs on the side of the blade and the power of distortion jumped up, causing Onigumo' arms to slightly shake with the blade.

There is a huge power gap between the branch Rear Admiral and Headquarters Rear Admiral. One is responsible for the defense of their respective sea area whether it is the East, North, South, or West Blue, while Headquarter Rear Admiral is responsible to guard a section of the Grand Line!

As the Marine Headquarters Rear Admiral, Onigumo is not only proficient in Marine’s Rokushiki, but he can also use two different types of Haki.

After the standoff, the two men retreated a few steps.

“If losing two Battleships make you this angry, then I am sorry because this is just the beginning.”

Ross looked at Onigumo and said calmly, “I said this when I was forced to become a pirate, I hope you don’t regret the orders that were issued at that time.”

Onigumo was silent when he heard Ross' words.

Regret?

A little bit.

But what he regretted was not that Ross was classified as a pirate, but that Lieutenant Colonel Leica a waste of Marines who couldn’t even deal with Ross in the very beginning.

At this point, there is no possibility of any reversal. Marines can never give up their prestige for a single individual. Only by putting Ross down to the bottom of the sea can the majesty of Marine be demonstrated and the pirates on the sea can be deterred.

“From your refusal to join Marines, I can see that there is no justice in your heart, Even if we didn’t do anything, you will surely be on the road that is opposed to justice, so whatever you say does not have any significance”

Onigumo’s coldly said and he stepped forward, his left hand holding a sword sweep and his right hand holding another sword chops at the same time creating a cross shape sword energy to cut Ross.

“A good excuse.”

Ross’s face flashed with a trace of sarcasm, He punched out hitting the center of the cross-shaped sword energy, The power of distortion suddenly broke out and the cross-shaped sword energy was twisted and crushed, creating a deep crack on the surrounding Shipboard.

After smashing Onigumo’s sword energy, Ross suddenly stepped forward with a strong power of distortion wrapped around his fist and punched towards Onigumo’s chest.

He was too lazy to start an argument with a Marine.

There is no room for reconciliation between him and the Marines. By killing Marine captains and rear admiral he can get Talent Proficiency points. In his eyes, Marines are just his prey.

Buzz!!

Onigumo crossed his two swords and resisted Ross' attack then he violently swung his swords at Ross' direction. At the same time, he jumped up and swept his legs.

Rankyaku (Tempest Kick)!

The two sword energies with strong horizontal foot power are interwoven with each other forming a network of sword energies, which cuts towards Ross.

Ross’ eyes were indifferent, his hands were separated up and down and he tore the web of sword energy by pulling it up and down and then he stepped right through the middle.

“Distorted Tempest.”

As he stepped out, his whole body suddenly shook and it was divided directly into three figures, which surrounded Onigumo from three different directions.

The original power of Distortion Fruit, in terms of Light Distortion he could only refract light to this extent, Ross has been able to use the distortion of light to create two phantom doppelgangers that are identical to himself.

Such phantom doppelgangers have a certain impact, even for people who can use Observation Haki, because when they see a fist coming, even if they know it is a phantom, most people will still make instinctive evasion or take defensive actions.

“Such Insignificant skill.”

Looking at the three identical Ross, surrounding and besieging him, Onigumo snorted and expanded his Observation Haki. He swept the two phantom doppelgänger with his two swords and at the same time attacked Ross with his sword energy.

Although creating phantom doppelgänger consumes stamina and takes up part of the power of distortion, Onigumo is more affected and it is more difficult for him to attack Ross with all his strength.

Zi Zi!

Ross’ hands were empty as he grabbed Onigumo sword energy attacks, twisted them into a ball and threw the sword energy ball back towards Onigumo.

Onigumo used Rankyaku (Tempest Kick) and kicked towards the incoming attack, but at this time, Ross followed up and punched out with his fist wrapped in the power of distortion.

At the same time.

The other two phantom doppelgänger also punched towards Onigumo, one from left and one from the right.

Although He knew that the left and right are the phantom doppelgängers, Onigumo still instinctively reacted to avoid Ross' attacks.

Bang!

The fists and swords intersected and the swords coated in Armament Haki in Onigumo’s hands showed sign of instability. The two swords also tremored violently, giving a buzz!

“It seems that you can’t cope with this Insignificant skill.”

Ross sneered, he stepped on his feet and used Soru, His entire figure moved sideways as he surrounded Onigumo with his two phantom doppelgängers constantly switching his position with them.

Onigumo hummed gloomily and suddenly closed his eyes. Instead of watching Ross' attacks, He only used Kami-e (Paper Drawing) of the Marine’s Rokushiki’s and Observation Haki to captured Ross’ position, while holding his swords in both of his hands with Armament Haki coating them completely.

“Armed!”

Around the two swords, the Armament Haki's colors shook violently. Suddenly, they gathered together. The colors changed from surrounding the swords and became attached to them, turning the two swords into pitch-black colors.

The strength of Armament Haki is high and low and at the high-level, Armament Haki can be used to achieve the hardening effect. Even at just the basic Hardening, it has already surpassed the basic level of Armament Haki and entered the high level.

"Armament Haki hardened…"

Ross stared slightly but did not show any fear. He thought intently before putting away the phantom doppelgängers and roused up the power of Distortion Fruit.

"Distortion Fist!"

“Two blade stream… caress cut!”

Onigumo combines two swords and chops strongly.

Buzz!!

Ross’ power of distortion hit Onigumo’s cuts hard in the air and the fist and sword did not connect perfectly but stopped about half an inch apart from each other.

At its center, the collision of sword energy and the chaotic power of distortion badly interweave and collide, making a nurturing and crackling sound, as if there was static electric current in the air.

Bang!

The waves of sword energy and the power of distortion finally burst apart and the aftermath of the collapse surged in all directions, leaving the deck beneath Ross and Onigumo totally disfigured and shattered.

In the aftermath, Ross took two steps back, while Onigumo staggered the same way, stepping back two steps as they have almost equally hit each other with all of their strength.

“…Devil Fruit can be developed to this extent.”

Onigumo opened his eyes and looked at Ross with a solemn look in his eyes.

He thought that he could easily catch a pirate like Ross who had never been to the Grand Line using his strength, But he didn’t expect that even when pushing his Haki to its limit it will result into this situation.

Fighting with a West Blue pirate was somewhat unacceptable for him, he is a Rear Admiral, who is stationed at the Grand Line Marine Headquarters.

And just as Onigumo started thinking about tactics, Ross attacked again.

“Distortion…flash!”

Buzz!!

In the space around Ross, the light suddenly dimmed and at the same time, a brilliant light suddenly came out of Ross’ eyebrow, like a flash, piercing Onigumo’s eyes, making his eyes painful as he involuntarily closed them.

Now that the power of distortion has been able to make two phantom doppelgänger, it can naturally converge light in an area to form a strong flash attack.

“Ah!”

This flash not only hurt Onigumo’s eyes but also made several Marines, who was watching from a distance, cover their eyes and scream, feeling a sharp pain in both of their eyes.

Whiz!

Ross stepped forward and punched Onigumo.

Onigumo, unable to concentrate because of the pain in his eyes, was forced to fight with a sword and staggered back under Ross’s punch.

Bang! Bang!

Ross showed no mercy. Knowing that the other party had Observation Haki and soru, he did not waste his stamina by moving back and forth. Instead, he fought directly and a series of blows poured down towards Onigumo like a gale Rainstorm.

Onigumo has become extremely confused for a while, although he can use Armament Haki to protect his body, He cannot completely resist Ross’ power of distortion, with each punch, he feels extream pain in his arms.

“Get away from me!”

After being forced to retreat for more than a dozen steps, Onigumo roared while jumping up and swept his legs across and unleashed Rankyaku (Tempest Kick) toward Ross’ face, waving his swords in succession, sending out more than ten sword energy attacks.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Ross raised his hand and pressed all the sword energies in front of him as if he is holding countless snakes. After a twist, all of them collapsed under the power of distortion.

Onigumo’s eyes have been restored, but he has given up on opening them, He was really bothered by Ross’ tactics of restraining his vision.

“You’ve pissed me off, West Blue kid!”

He looked at Ross and said in a cold voice, “Do you know why I’m called ‘Onigumo’? That’s because…

As his voice fell, a strange momentum suddenly appeared all over him. The hair spread over his shoulders and back suddenly floated one by one.

The floating hair, bundled up and twisted together, eventually turning into six spider-like legs, the six black spider’s legs took out six swords from the coat he was wearing and he held eight blades in his current posture!

“Life Return (Seimei Kikan)?”

Ross watched the strange changes on Onigumo, his eyes flashed, his impression of Onigumo was not deep, he always thought that Onigumo has the ability of the Zoan Devil Fruit model: Spider, but he did not think that Onigumo was a high-level body skill user.

Life returns (Seimei Kikan) ability, even those who are proficient in Marine's Rokushiki, have a little grasp on this technique, This is a top-notch body skill by which the user can freely control their body, hair and even internal organs.

“You haven’t been to Grand Line, but you have such knowledge that you recognize not only Haki but also the Life Returns (Seimei Kikan), It is quite surprising.”

Onigumo grinned and grinned terribly.

In the War Of The Best in the original work, Life Returns (Seimei Kikan) has become Onigumo’s normal skill, but now it is his ultimate stunt, in order to press Ross down, he has no reservations anymore!
