Vongola Primo in One Piece - Chapter 330
Upon seeing the frozen sea, Varia’s members immediately stepped onto the ice. Each one of them was filled with fighting spirit, even the ordinary members.
It was due to their training with Colonnello and Squalo’s guidance.
As for Squalo and a few other officers, they showed no fear at all. Except for Fran, who seemed indifferent, the rest were full of spirit, especially Belphegor. For someone who enjoyed massacre like him, battlefield was his favorite place.
“Which one of you is going to be the first to die by my hands? I can’t wait to chop off your head!” Squalo roared and charged to the front.
As he rushed forward, he opened his Box Weapon. A Shark enveloped in Rain Flame charged with Squalo. As a great swordsman, the aura he emitted was overwhelming.
In Varia, Squalo was undoubtedly the second most powerful after Xanxus. However, people tended to underestimate him, probably because he had only faced Vista during the battle in Wano Country. But in reality, it was simply because he accepted Vista’s challenge as a swordsman. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have fought against him for so long.
But for this battle, Squalo came purely for the sake of slaughter. Moreover, there weren’t any bona fide swordsman among the Marines, anyway.”
“Look, they’re charging towards us. I haven’t fought in a long time, so I’ll teach these young men a lesson!”
Garp said as he bent his knees slightly and rushed straight for Squalo.
Seeing this scene, the other Marines also immediately made their move. With a Marine hero as the vanguard, their morale soared. Garp’s presence was like a reassuring anchor, even more effective than the three Admirals.
In an instant, the Marines and Varia clashed. However, the disparity in strength between the two sides became immediately apparent. Varia members were indeed elite, but this time, the Marines had also sent their finest!
Even Belphegor and Lussuria didn’t have the luxury to kill the ordinary Marine officers because they were facing at least two Vice Admirals. A slight mistake would put cause irreversible mistake.
“Anyone that loses here will automatically be demoted to ordinary members, understand?”
Xanxus took a few steps forward, and his imposing aura made ordinary people too afraid to approach him. Even the Marine soldiers who were already in combat deliberately avoided him. They all knew that if they approached Xanxus at this moment, there would only be one outcome…
Death!
Although they weren’t afraid of sacrificing themselves in battle, such sacrifices were meaningless. They knew that leaving Xanxus to the Admirals was the best choice.
“Sengoku and the other three Admiral losers, come over and help me warm up!”
Xanxus mocked them casually. Although it was mockery, his eyes were extremely serious. He had confidence in his own strength, but he also knew that facing several Marine strongest combatants wouldn’t be easy.
However, at this moment, he couldn’t afford to focus on just one or two opponents. They were at a disadvantage, and other Varia members didn’t have the luxury to deal with those top-tier fighters either. Moreover, he hadn’t expected Squalo to have his hands full with the smiling Marine veteran. His reputation as the Marine hero wasn’t just for show indeed.
As for Fran, he was currently dealing with the former Marine Admiral Zephyr. In the current situation, if he didn’t shoulder this heavy burden, any one of the top-tier fighters on the opposing side could cause significant damage to Varia. Even people like Belphegor and Lussuria might be severely injured if they let their guard down.
“Oooh, how terrifying! Xanxus, the leader of the Varia Team. I remember that you defeated Sakazuki during the battle at Round Island, didn’t you?” Kizaru made a horrified face, but anyone would know that he was faking it.
“Hmph, do you think I’m the same as before, Borsalino!”
Sakazuki’s face became considerably less pleasant when his loss in the past mentioned. But as he had said, he was different now from before. Even in a one-on-one situation, he had the confidence to defeat Xanxus.
Of course, having confidence was one thing; whether he could actually do it was another matter.
“Don’t argue about these useless things. The priority is to kill this person and end this battle.” Aokiji’s expression was solemn. At the same time, visible cold air appeared in his hands, indicating that he was ready to strike.
Just as the three Admirals were preparing to attack at the same time, a small boat stopped at the edge of the ice. Then, a figure with hands in the pockets of his coat casually walked over. His footsteps seemed to resonate in the hearts of the three Admirals and Sengoku, making their faces extremely solemn.
This guy…
He always appeared at the most inappropriate times in places. What a troublesome person!
“Fortunately, I received a message in time. Because of some trivial matters, I was delayed for a while. Otherwise, you and your men would probably have met your end here, Xanxus. But now, it’s perfect. I never expected the Marines to resort to such a sneak attack. Does such an act befit the justice you claim to uphold?”
The figure in the coat stopped, standing not far from the three Admirals. He spoke in a deep voice.
Seeing this person’s appearance, Sengoku’s expression turned extremely unpleasant. “Cloud Guardian, Alaudi, the strongest Guardian? But is a traitor like you really in the position to question our justice?”
