I really don't want to be the pirate king

Under the cover of night, two figures stood opposite each other, with flames burning quietly around them, and the atmosphere was somewhat solemn.

"The gun."

Ace raised his hands, thumbs up, index and middle fingers raised together, pointed at Dazbonis, and shook rapidly.

Da-da-da.

Flames the size of fingers flew out and shot towards Bowness.

Whoosh.

Bowness' body disappeared without a trace, and he quickly appeared next to Ace, holding a long knife and slashing at his body.

"So fast."

Ace looked a little surprised, looked at the oncoming blade, and jumped back.

He was attacked by Bowness just now. He wanted to use elementalization to resist other people's slashes, but found that it was useless and his skin was cut.

He didn't know why the other party could hurt him, but he didn't dare to use his own body to deal with the other party's attacks.

Ace jumped into the air and waved his hands, "Sun Flame."

The two flames formed a spiral and flew towards Bowness.

Bowness' body disappeared again and appeared on Ace's side, slashing towards the opponent's neck with a knife.

Ace immediately squatted down and struck his hat with the blade, splitting it in two and cutting off a few hairs, but it did not cause any damage.

Missing a hit, Bowness slashed Congyu's left hand downwards, hitting Ace's waist.

But Ace kicked off his feet, jumped over, held down Bones' knife-holding palm with his right hand, and punched Bones in the chest with his left hand.

thump.

Huge power surged out, and Bowness was blown away, flying into the distance.

Not only that, a raging flame was released from Ace's fist, completely covering Bowness and burning his body.

"Should it be resolved now?"

Ace stood there, pressing his palm on his hat, planning to leave towards the warship.

But at this time, a figure walked out of the flames. His upper body was exposed, and his well-developed chest muscles were exposed, but he did not suffer any damage.

"how is this possible?"

Ace looked confused as to why his fists and flames couldn't hurt him.

"It's so hot."

Bowness walked towards Ace step by step, stretched his neck, and tightened his grip on the blade.

shave!

The next moment, he disappeared again and appeared in front of Ace, slashing down with both swords.

Ace immediately jumped back and dodged the attack. He opened his mouth and spat out, and the flames turned into a river and swept towards Bowness.

But Bowness smashed the flames, appeared in front of Ace, and slashed him with his sword.

How is this going?

The natural type can be transformed into elements, so it is not afraid of physical attacks, and the fire it releases can burn rocks.

But the current result is completely opposite. The opponent is not afraid of attacking and can even hurt himself.

How is it done?

Ace was a little surprised. The moment he dodged the opponent's slash, he squeezed into the opponent's arms, supported his wrist with his left hand, and pressed Bowness's chest with his right hand.

boom.

Bowness was knocked out again, and the flames once again enveloped him, burning fiercely.

Bowness remained unscathed, but Ace noticed something was wrong.

When his fist fell on Bowness, he felt that his body was extremely hard, not like a physical body at all.

This might be due to his special physique, but the opponent's slashes could hurt him, which made Ace hesitate.

So he took the initiative to rush forward and trembled close to Bowness.

Ace slapped his palm on Bowness' sword blade, feeling the power lingering on it, and narrowed his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, he punched out again, landing on Bowness and knocking him away.

There is a strange energy wrapped around the blade, making the slash more threatening.

What is this energy?

Ace didn't know it, but Bowness was already attacking, attacking him again, his right sword slashing out with a thunderous cut, and a sharp bird song appeared.

"What sound~"

Ace jumped back and dodged the blow, but fired a slash from the Raikiri sword.

The chop hit Ace and passed through him.

"This energy cannot be released."

Ace understood how to use the special energy, but then he felt that his body could not gather it.

I saw the chopping wave vibrating at high speed, shaking my body apart and making it impossible to close it up.

Raikiri is infused with armament-colored Haki and vibrates at high speed. After development, Bowness can make the chop wave vibrate at high speed, giving it greater destructive power.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bowness appeared in front of Ace and slashed with both swords.

Ace barely managed to gather his body, but he was already a step slower, took a step back, and was still hit by the blade.

poof, poof.

Two bloody mouths appeared on Ace's chest, and the skin and flesh were split open, looking very miserable.

"It hurts."

Ace gritted his teeth and did not retreat. Instead, he stepped forward and fought with him at close range.

He dodged and blocked to prevent Bowness's blade from falling. After finding an opening, he punched Bowness in the abdomen, causing his body to shake violently.

Bowness couldn't hit him, and he looked a little anxious. He kept swinging the blade, but he found an opportunity and hit him in the face.

calm down!

Bowness felt a little anxious, so he gathered his chaotic thoughts and focused all his attention on Ace.

His right sword, Raikiri, slashed at Ace's shoulder, but the latter turned sideways and dodged. At the moment, he took a step forward, supported Bonis's left wrist with his right hand, and punched out with his left hand, hitting Bonis's wrist. abdomen.

boom.

Bowness was blasted away, rolled up on the ground, struck out with lightning, and flew out with a chop.

Whoosh.

Ace moved sideways, but Bonis was already coming towards him and slashed him with his sword.

At this moment, Ace took a step forward, held Bowness's wrist with his left hand, and punched out with his right hand.

Bowness blocked the blow with his long knife in his left hand, and then bumped his head forward.

boom.

Ace was knocked upside down, his nose bones were broken and blood flowed out.

Seizing the opportunity, Bowness had already slashed out with the sword in his right hand, but Ace kicked him in the abdomen and kicked him away.

"This man is really strong."

Ace stood there, touched his nose, and stared at Bowness.

"Come again."

Bowness jumped up and rushed towards Ace, raising his long knife and slashing towards the opponent.

The two figures overlapped, their arms seemed to turn into welcome, and their movements were so fast that it was difficult to see clearly.

Bowness would occasionally be hit, but would not be injured, while Ace would be hit with considerable injuries.

"Ace will lose if this continues."

The pirate ship withdrew from the harbor. Deus stood on the side of the ship, looking into the distance with a nervous expression. Skar held the knife and shouted loudly: "Let's go help him."

"Need not."

But at this moment, a voice sounded from the second floor of the aft cabin, "Leave it to me."

I saw a figure setting up a spear, aiming at Bowness, with his finger on the trigger, intending to press it.

Milkha is the sniper of the Spade Pirates.

His bullets are so powerful that it's impossible to tell where they come from. They can kill in one hit, making people frightened.

Milkha locked onto Bones' right leg and was about to pull the trigger, but at this moment, there was a bang, and Milkha's gun exploded, and the fragments jumped onto his face, leaving a bloody mouth.

"The gun is broken?"

Milkha looked at the gun in his hand, but shook his head, "No, the moment the bullet flew out of the muzzle, another bullet hit the muzzle."

But where did the bullet come from?

He looked in the direction of the bullet and found that there was nothing in front of him. It happened to be the wide central avenue. There were no buildings and no one holding a gun.

what happened?

Michal frowned and continued to look into the distance, discovering a towering tower.

Golden Emperor Casino.

A terrifying thought occurred in his mind. This bullet couldn't have been fired from the Golden Emperor Casino, right?

Being able to hit one's own muzzle from such a long distance, how powerful must this shooting ability be?

Michal has a calm personality, but for the first time he feels fear.

"Mihar, why haven't you taken action yet?" Deus asked loudly.

"There are snipers watching us."

Michal's voice was a little hoarse, "Don't move, everyone, or they will all die."

Following Michal's voice, everyone froze there. No one doubted his judgment and did not dare to move.

The battle between Ace and Bowness is still going on.

"bring it on."

Bowness held the two swords in his hands, charged forward again, and slashed at the opponent again.

Ace, who was covered with no injuries, stood there panting, looking at the oncoming slashes, and raised his arms.

"Have you given up?"

Bowness held the long knife and slashed it down, hitting the opponent's arm.

puff.

Blood spurted out, but there was only one injury. It was the injury caused by the lightning strike, which broke the skin and left a scar.

As for Ace's right arm, Cong Yu slashed at it, but it failed to break through the defense.

"Hey hey hey."

Ace laughed, propped up Cong Yu with his right arm, and punched Bowness in the chest.

boom.

Bowness flew out and hit the ground. He turned over and stood up. His chest was in great pain and bruises appeared.

He looked at Ace and asked with a somewhat disbelieving expression: "You have mastered the armed domineering entanglement."

"So it's called Armed Color Haki?"

Ace laughed and said, "Yes, I did master it."

"You are a genius."

Bonis looked at the other person and said with admiration: "He is the second person I have ever seen who can awaken the armed domineering force in battle."

"is it?"

Ace smiled and said, "Now that I have mastered the Armament Haki, you can no longer defeat me, so how about giving up?"

"Can't beat you?"

Bowness' figure swelled, and under Ace's shocked eyes, he smiled and said, "I forgot to tell you, I am also a Devil Fruit user!"

"Roar."

Bowness transformed into a black gorilla about four meters tall, holding a long knife and roaring to the sky.
