One Piece: Starting in God Valley as a Slave

The attack missed, and Gion was stunned. Then she remembered that Carl was a Logia, and physical attacks without Haki could not hurt him at all.

So she used Armament Haki to wrap around the sword and stabbed Carl's waist. There seemed to be some obsession with the waist, as she always aimed for this position.

However, she made the same mistake as Borsalino at the beginning, confusing Carl's Kamui with ordinary elementalization.

The Konpira wrapped with Haki still passed through Carl's body without any hindrance. Gion opened her mouth slightly and blurted out, "How is this possible?! I clearly used Armament Haki!"

Carl said nothing, grabbing Gion's shoulder with one hand and striking her stomach with his knee.

She immediately used Armament Haki to defend, but her Armament Haki was as fragile as paper against Carl's attack, breaking instantly.

Suffering a severe blow to the abdomen, Gion spat out a mouthful of blood, her body trembling as she stepped back a few paces, finally kneeling on one leg before Carl.

Seeing this scene, the crowd watching the fight all twitched their mouths violently, thinking that Carl had no mercy on women and was truly ruthless when he fought!

Carl looked down at Gion and said lightly, "What's wrong with you? Do you want to admit defeat?"

Gion's face showed embarrassment. Just now, she had faced Ginny with such a condescending attitude, full of confidence in her own strength.

But now, the roles had reversed. Her so-called confidence had been completely shattered by Carl, and the swordsmanship she was proud of couldn't even touch Carl's clothes.

Gion finally understood why Tsuru praised Carl so highly. Given the strength Carl had shown, Tsuru might still have been too conservative.

She smiled bitterly, realizing how ridiculous her earlier pride had been after defeating two students. The gap between them was too obvious. No matter how unwilling she was, Gion had to admit that she had lost, and lost completely.

She held the sword with both hands and stood up from the ground, Carl's cold face reflected in her peach-colored pupils.

Gion looked at Carl's face carefully, as if trying to imprint it in her memory. Until Carl showed an impatient look, she whispered, "I lost."

Carl raised his eyebrows, not expecting Gion to admit defeat so easily. It felt like punching cotton.

With his current anger, if Gion had said something stubborn, his next blow would have knocked her unconscious on the spot, and she wouldn't be getting up without lying in the hospital for ten days or half a month.

To avoid falling back into that violent state, Carl had cultivated himself in Sorbet for six years, tempering his mind to be tough and difficult to break down.

But when he saw the injured Ginny, he nearly lost control of his emotions.

Only then did he truly realize how important Ginny was to him.

Unknowingly, the girl who followed him all day had become an inseparable part of his life, and he wouldn't allow anyone to hurt her.

Thinking of this, Carl's hand once again emitted a thick black gas, and Gion's ponytail spread out and floated toward him.

The black high heels on her feet were deeply embedded in the soil. After temporarily stabilizing herself, she murmured, "Still don't want to stop? It seems that the girl doesn't have unrequited love. Why am I suddenly envious of her..."

Carl raised his dark right hand expressionlessly and pointed it at Gion. Just as he was about to exert force, a figure wearing a Marine cloak flashed by, raising a palm to meet Carl.

"Calm down, Carl!"

The person who arrived was tall, with long dark blue hair tied into a ponytail like Gion's. She had a very capable temperament, but her face looked a little older.

She was Vice Admiral Tsuru of the Headquarter. Thanks to Momonga's "message," she was able to arrive in time.

Of course, Momonga, who was just a student, didn't have the ability to contact Tsuru directly, so he called Zephyr first.

What surprised Momonga was that Zephyr was still on the warship returning to the Headquarter, but there was no time to ask questions, so he directly relayed the situation about Gion.

"Teacher Zephyr, come back quickly! No one here can stop Carl!"

Zephyr said nothing after hearing this and immediately informed Tsuru, who was at the headquarters. She was also shocked and immediately set aside what she was doing, heading straight to the Marine School.

As soon as she arrived, she saw Carl reaching out to Gion, already using his power.

She had long heard about the power of the Dark Fruit. Based on the information from Zephyr, not even a body could be found of the pirates who fell at Carl's hands during his voyage, cleaner than even Akainu's methods!

Although she knew Carl was unlikely to kill her, she didn't dare to take the risk.

Her palm wasn't just an ordinary palm; it contained the power of the Wash-Wash Fruit. She intended to "wash" away Carl's anger.

But Tsuru was too hasty. She forgot that this Devil Fruit ability, which needed to be used at close range, had no effect on Carl, a Dark Fruit user!

By the time Tsuru realized this, it was too late. The black energy on Carl's hand not only did not dissipate but became even more violent. At such a close distance, her hand was tightly attached to Carl's, making it difficult to pull away.

"Vice Admiral Tsuru, this Gion lady wants to see my strength, so you don't have to interfere, right?"

"Gion has already admitted defeat. I will give you an explanation later after I clarify things."

Hearing what Tsuru said, the students on the field were shocked.

Good grief, that's Vice Admiral Tsuru! And she's saying she'll give an explanation to Carl, a student? Is there something wrong with my ears?

Tsuru's eyes flashed, and her Armament Haki instantly covered her entire arm, a strong force erupting to push Carl back.

After all, she was an older generation Marine. Even without her fruit ability, her Armament Haki alone was not something that an ordinary Marine Vice Admiral could achieve.

After breaking free from Carl's grasp, Tsuru hugged Gion, carefully checking her injuries. After confirming she was okay, she breathed a sigh of relief and scolded,

"Gion, you've really caused me a lot of trouble as soon as you arrived. Didn't you always say you didn't like staying at the Headquarter?"

In front of Tsuru, Gion looked like a little girl who had done something wrong. She lowered her head and whispered,

"I've been listening to Sister Tsuru talk about how amazing the students of this class are, and there's also the genius Carl. I couldn't help but be curious and wanted to come and see it..."
