One Piece My Partner is Too Crooked - Chapter 28
Putting away the messy thoughts in his heart, Icey stretched casually and walked slowly towards the nervous Higuma.
“I think you should realize the gap between us, Higuma.”
“If you don’t want to be beaten to death, it’s better to just surrender. After all, we still have a friendship worth 800,000 Baileys.”
Hearing these ambiguous words, a glimmer of hope of survival lit up in Higuma’s eyes.
But before he could speak, Icey’s next words completely wiped out this hope.
“Don’t worry, after I capture you and collect the reward, I will definitely not make things difficult for you again.”
What is the difference between sending me in and killing me?!!
Hope failed; Higuma tried his best to regulate his breathing, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Icey, who was getting closer.
His mind was running rapidly, thinking about the best escape plan before him.
Realizing that it was difficult for him to break through the opponent’s defence, Higuma gritted his teeth and accepted this fact, no matter how unwilling he was.
Since you can’t beat him, you have to run for your life.
Who the hell is going to fight you to the end?
When Higuma glanced past Icey from the corner of his eye and caught a glimpse of Aqua and Luffy in two different directions, his sinister eyes suddenly lit up.
Hahaha, yes!
Something that can save your life!
Higuma was ecstatic in his heart; his face remained frightened and gloomy, but behind his back, he secretly held a handful of sea sand tightly in his palms.
His movements and expressions were well hidden. It was enough to deceive Aqua and Luffy, but how could he hide it from Icey, who was good at this?
Icey understood in his heart, but on the surface, he pretended not to notice anything and continued to move forward.
The distance between the two insidious and cunning actors is getting closer and closer.
“Go to hell, Icey!!”
Seeing that the time was right, Higuma suddenly threw out the sea sand in his hand.
The tiny particles dispersed like smoke, greatly cutting off Icey’s vision and forcing him to close his eyes tightly.
Icey, who had been prepared for a long time, did not panic. As long as he had the power to see and hear, even if he couldn’t see it, he would be sure to lock on to Higuma’s aura and receive all sudden attacks!
However, when he saw and heard the oppressive power, Icey frowned and realized something was wrong.
The perceptive Higuma had no intention of launching an attack, so he grabbed the long knife scattered on the ground and ran wildly.
“The target is Luffy? You really know how to seek death…”
Yes, Higuma’s target is Luffy, who is watching from a short distance away and cannot resist!
“ah?!”
Seeing the ferocious bandit suddenly change direction and run towards him, Luffy was frightened, and his expression changed.
The fear of being held hostage by this guy hit him, forcing him to turn around and run out of instinct.
Aqua also discovered Higuma’s crazy intention for the first time. As soon as she took a strong step, a heavy feeling of dizziness surged out crazily.
Now, she has not fully adapted to the world of pirates, and the side effects of excessive release of water magic are inevitable!
Compared to Aqua’s extreme anxiety at this moment, Icey, whose vision had returned to normal, strangely stayed in place with no intention of catching up.
He was so calm that he even thought of raising his hand and slowly patting away the sea sand that fell on his body.
In addition to the fact that speed is a flaw and it is impossible to catch up with Higuma, who took the first action now, there is another extremely important reason:
Just now, his domineering aura captured an extremely terrifying and powerful aura!
Even though they are far apart, the entry-level hegemony can still sense it, which is enough to show that this aura is extraordinary.
And now, looking at the entire Windmill Village, the only one who possesses this kind of coercion and dominance is the captain of the Red-haired Pirates – Red-haired Shanks!
‘So Shanks, the man who will become the Emperor of the Sea in the future and possess the strongest domineering aura, what choice will you make in the face of this situation?’
Icey crossed his arms and looked up at Higuma, who was about to catch up with Luffy. His deep eyes flashed with a bit of curiosity.
“You brat, if it weren’t for you, how could I be in this damn miserable state now?”
“You still want to run, right? OK, I’ll chop off both of your legs right now. Let’s see how you still run!”
Higuma’s face was covered in blood, and his face was ferocious. He felt the trauma left by Icey in his body was getting worse. Knowing that he could no longer delay, he looked hard and raised the long knife in his hand to chop straight down Luffy’s slender legs. !
Taking advantage of his rubber body, Luffy twisted his neck and looked back to see what was going on, only to see the horrifying sight of a sharp blade flashing with cold light, rapidly growing in size in his pupils.
Luffy, still a child at heart, was so frightened that his mind went blank, his legs went weak, and he fell to the ground.
Therefore, the blade that should have been aimed at his legs was instead aimed at his pale head!
Icey!
The knife fell from his hand, blood splattered.
A tall and majestic figure appeared without warning, standing between Luffy and Higuma.
The distant sea breeze roared in, blowing the black cloak.
The pure white underwear was dyed red by the blood. With a muffled “plop” sound, the severed arm fell from the air and fell on the beach not far away, letting the warm blood wash away in the waves.
The atmosphere fell to freezing point at this moment, and it was terrifyingly quiet.
Whether it was Higuma, who was slashed with a knife, Luffy, whose eyes were filled with tears, or Aqua, who was rushing to rescue people, they were all stunned by the shocking scene that happened in front of them. In place!
“What’s wrong, Luffy, didn’t you say you want to be a man upright? How could you be scared to tears by a mere bandit?”
Shanks, who teleported here through some unknown means, ignored Higuma and turned to look at Luffy, who was in tears.
His voice sounded soft and calm, without any pain from having his arm chopped off.
“But, but, Shanks, your arm, your arm…”
Little Luffy bit his lips tightly to prevent tears from falling. He could see Shanks’ empty shoulders, but he still couldn’t hold back the grief that surged crazily, and he cried heartbreakingly.
From this moment on, little Luffy’s state of mind changed drastically.
This change will affect his entire future pirate career!
In the distance, Icey stared blankly at such a familiar scene in the anime.
Although I had already suspected it, the visual impact of seeing it with my own eyes and experiencing it personally cannot be compared to that through a screen!
They are good guys; without the King of the Offshore, there is no pretence, Shanks.
Icey couldn’t help but Higuma in his heart.
You know, Shanks is now a famous pirate in the new world. The duel with Hawkeye Mihawk some time ago even paid great attention to Whitebeard, who was at his peak.
In front of such a three-colour domineering powerhouse, there is no difference between the King of the Offshore and Higuma.
Even if Shanks releases a little overlord-coloured domineering energy from a distance, or if he slightly covers it with a high-level armed colour, let the King of the Offshore chew it for a long time, or let the Higuma chop it for a year, it will be impossible to remove his arm!
Therefore, the conclusion that Shanks will lose his arm in the weakest East China Sea is already very obvious.
As he said to Whitebeard later, this was to place a bet on the new era, on Luffy, who ate the Devil Fruit that inherited Joeyboy’s will!
