One Piece My Partner is Too Crooked - Chapter 60
The sharp sea breeze blew, making the surrounding trees and jungles rustle.
Icey and Crowe were several meters apart, looking at each other in the air.
“You’re well, Boss Icey. I still can’t forget my meal at your place yesterday.”
Crowe spread out his ten-edged cat claws and stared at Icey coldly through the lenses with a gloomy gaze, like a poisonous snake that might attack at any time.
“It’s an honour for me to be remembered by Captain Crowe. It shows that our offshore restaurant is quite successful.” Icey replied with a smile.
He swaggered to the Black Cat Pirates’ territory from the front because he wanted the pirates to show up proactively, saving him the trouble of searching.
After all, the restaurant on the sea is not the Navy, and the pirates have no reason to temporarily avoid the danger and retreat as a whole group.
“I don’t remember placing a delivery order for you.”
Crowe seemed hurried, raised his hand, pushed up his glasses, and said, “So, why are you coming to me specifically? Do you want my head with a 14 million bounty on it?”
“Or…are you interested in what we snatched from Firth Town?”
From the adjutant assigned to Colonel Smoker, he learned that Icey’s maritime restaurant had appeared in Forth Town.
Combined with the beautiful blue-haired girl who can summon floods and is suspected of eating a Devil Fruit, it is certain that this group of people knows about the existence of Devil Fruits.
Only the priceless value of Devil Fruit can allow them, who are engaged in the restaurant business at sea, to risk their lives and come here!
“Only young people make choices.”
Under Crowe’s gaze, Icey gently waved the two knives and smiled calmly: “I’m sorry, I want both.”
“Seeking death!”
After confirming the other party’s hostility, Crowe said no more, stepped on the ground quickly with both feet turned into an afterimage and rushed towards Icey.
After the brief confrontation at the sea restaurant, he knew the opponent’s skills well, so he immediately used his assassination skill: Silent Step!
Dark shadows flashed between the jungles, and the slender, sharp blades reflected the cold light.
Icey felt strong wind pressure blowing across his face, and the next second, Crowe, wearing a pirate cape, appeared in front of him.
Ten sharp blades streaked through the air, blocking all the spaces on the left and right sides!
The speed is very fast, but under the perception of the oppressive power, there is nothing to hide.
I saw Icey opening his arms and using the two machetes in his hands to shoot left and right, accurately crossing the path of the cat’s claw blade.
The crisp sound of the blades clashing and rubbing sounded along with the sparks bursting out.
With a machete against five sharp claws, Crowe’s seemingly blind attack was easily blocked by Icey!
“You guys can sense attack trajectories.”
Crowe curled up his lips and showed a charming smile. He was not surprised that his attack would be neutralized.
“It’s a pity that compared with your weak strength, it’s not worth mentioning!”
Veins appeared on Crowe’s arms, and the palms of his hands were bent together, releasing strong force.
The ten sharp blades blocked by the machete immediately shook violently, advancing slowly toward Icey’s shoulders, sides, and thighs.
As expected of a pirate with extremely rich combat experience, in just the moment of the fight, Crowe judged that Icey’s biggest flaw at present was his strength!
However, as he gradually increased his strength, he wanted to cut the person in front of him into several pieces.
Icey quickly retracted the two machetes and gave up the resistance on his initiative!
Zizzizi.
In the flash of lightning, ten sharp blades swung down, like the bloody mouth of a ferocious beast, biting hard on both sides of Icey’s body.
Damn, so hard?
Crowe’s pupils shrank, and the sharp claw blade struck the opponent. The feeling transmitted along the palm of his hand was the same as cutting a hard stone!
What Icey wanted was the brief moment when the opponent was stunned. Without any nonsense, he raised the knife and slashed at Crowe’s exposed chest!
The strong sense of crisis forced the adrenaline in Crowe’s body to surge rapidly. It was almost a subconsciously conditioned reflex. He quickly retracted the ten-edged cat claws that he had swung out with both palms, stepped heavily on the ground with both feet and was struck by the machete the moment before. He jumped back in seconds and narrowly avoided the slashing attack.
After retreating several meters and returning to the starting position, Crowe glanced down at the shirt with a slit cut out, and his expression became increasingly gloomy.
“Your strength doesn’t seem great, Captain Crowe.”
Icey raised the hand holding the machete and patted his side.
I could see that the skin that the ten-edged cat claw had just slashed showed several small dents, and if I looked carefully, I could see a few drops of blood.
“I see; your reaction speed is no less than that of the Shadowless Steps, and your powerful physical defence is what you rely on to dare to declare war on our Black Cat Pirates?”
Crowe’s arms dropped naturally, and it was easy to see from the slightly frowning brow that his inner activities seemed not as relaxed as he said.
“It’s hard to say for the entire pirate group, but I think it should be enough to deal with you.” Icey chuckled.
He seemed to be looking forward to this battle where he didn’t have to worry about someone causing trouble and could also accumulate practical experience.
When encountering Crowe, Icey asks Aqua to follow the battle plan and go to the mountaintop stronghold to find trouble with other Black Cat pirates.
In this regard, Crowe did not stop him.
“Before that, don’t you think about why I let your partner pass?”
Crowe moved his knuckles slowly. Considering the person’s difficulty in front of him, he decided to start with the other person’s state of mind.
“To tell you the truth, I laid many traps and ambushes in advance on the way from here to the top of the mountain. Your accomplice must have been killed by various sharp blades by now, right?”
Traps and ambush?
Icey was inevitably shaken when he heard this, but he soon regained his composure.
Aqua’s perception is very keen, and her ability to adapt to seeing and hearing Haki is far superior to him. It is difficult for ordinary traps to cause effective damage to her.
Not to mention ordinary pirates, whether they can defeat Aqua, strengthened by the power of faith for several rounds, is a question.
As for that worrying IQ…
I believe that no matter how much the stupid goddess tries to trick her, she can’t trick her, right?
Therefore, Icey completely believes in Aqua!
“You don’t have to worry about my partner.”
Icey raised his head and looked at Crowe, “You should worry more about yourself than this.”
Seeing the confusion on Crowe’s face, he continued: “If my guess is correct, Captain Smoker of the Navy should be arriving soon, right?”
No one would deliberately lay out unnecessary traps and ambushes in a stronghold that could be abandoned at any time.
Their crusade against the Black Cat Pirates was a temporary move. From the surprise shown by Crowe when they first met, it can be seen that he did not know that they would come here.
Then, the only person who would ask Crowe to make these preparations in advance is Colonel Smoker, who has secretly cooperated with the Black Cat Pirates!
After all, it is only natural for the Navy to arrest pirates!
“I underestimate you. Are there people from you in the Navy?” Crowe’s voice was surprisingly cold.
“No, it’s all just speculation.”
Icey held two machetes in front of him, raised the corners of his mouth, and showed a bright smile full of sunshine, “But now, it seems that this is the fact.”
“You dare to lie to my words…”
Realizing he had been tricked, Captain Crowe showed blue veins on his forehead.
This time, he was really angry!
