Weapon fruit is rubbish? Have you ever heard of Ryujin Jakka?

Chapter 455 8 vs 8! Materialized Zanpakutō vs. the Red Hair Pirates

"Feel sorry!"

Senbonzakura glanced at the domineering Shanks, and then thought of Ben Beckman who had forced Sode no Shirayuki into a desperate situation with a single shot. He lowered his head and apologized again for his arrogance.

He was not afraid of death, but he felt very guilty when he thought about how his arrogance almost implicated Xiu Baixue.

after all.

He insisted on taking down the Red Hair Pirates alone, but it was he who proposed it.

"I would rather see you apologize with a knife than with your mouth."

"How about this."

"If you feel guilty, then pick one of these pirates."

Huatian glanced at every member of the Red Hair Pirates:

"It would be too much of a stretch for you to face this pirate group alone, but it shouldn't be too much to just take down one of them."

Hearing this, Senbonzakura knew that Hanaten was trying to save face for himself. At the same time, he also wanted to prove that he was definitely not just a talker.

"Leave him to me."

Thinking of how Sode no Shirayuki was almost shot to death by Ben Beckman, Senbonzakura chose him as her opponent without hesitation.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Hua Tian could only choose to remain silent.

What could she say?

Do you think Senbonzakura has a good eye? Is she really good at judging people?

As soon as he opened his mouth, he chose the one whose strength was second only to Red-Haired Shanks.

But can she say this?

No.

Huatian knew very well that with Senbonzakura's tsundere personality, it would have been better if she didn't say anything. But once she said it, Senbonzakura would be even more determined to deliver it to Ben Beckman.

"Let Hua Tian and I take care of him!"

In the end, it was Kuanggu who spoke up.

After all, she looks like a girl, and saying this will make the tsundere Senbonzakura more acceptable and she won't feel looked down upon.

"Then, I'll go deal with him."

Senbonzakura is a tsundere, but not a fool.

Hua Tian's silence, coupled with Kuang Gu's initiative to speak up and regard Ben Beckman as an opponent, made him understand the other party's good intentions, so after a brief hesitation, he chose Laqi Lu as his opponent.

"can."

After hearing this, Huatian nodded slightly and agreed to let Senbonzakura fight Laci Lu.

If Ben Beckman is the second in command of the Red Hair Pirates, Jesus Bu is the third in command, then Lakiru is the fourth in command.

With Senbonzakura's strength, even if she is defeated, it will not be a problem for her to hold the opponent back.

"Leave him to me!"

Sode no Shirayuki looked at Jesus Bu and chose an opponent who was more difficult than Senbonzakura.

"Do not."

Hua Tian shook her head. The other person was Sode Shirayuki, so she didn't need to worry about what she said and could speak the truth:

"He is the second strongest among this group of pirates after the one who just shot you."

"With just you, you won't be able to defeat me even if you use your Bankai."

"After all, Rosen using us is completely different from us using our own abilities. The power is simply incomparable. You should understand this principle."

Hearing this, Sode no Shirayuki nodded.

If she were to be handed over to Rosen to use, it would be like a natural ice fruit, even more powerful than Kuzan.

It’s not because Sode Shirayuki is powerful, but because Rosen who controls Sode Shirayuki is powerful.

But now, without Rosen to control her, she can only use her own abilities, and the power is naturally a world of difference.

"So, you're going to deal with me and Jesus Bu by yourself next?"

"Do not."

"It should be said that it is a knife."

Ben Beckman stood in front of the severely injured Hongo, his eyes like knives, cutting into Huatian's body.

He was already certain that both Hanaten and Kyōgoku, like Senbonzakura and Sode no Shirayuki, were Rosen's Zanpakutō.

Even through the communication between Katen and other Zanpakutō, as well as the similarities between Katen and Kyōgoku's attire, he guessed that Katen and Kyōgoku were two in one, transformed from the same Zanpakutō.

"It's already very good to be able to get rid of you."

"As for him."

"Someone will deal with it."

Huatian shook his head and looked at Jesus.

After she was created by Rosen and materialized, she has been in the Judge restricted area, understanding everything in this world, and even took the initiative to learn the power system of the pirate world in private.

For example, physical skills, swordsmanship, and even domineering.

Therefore.

She was well aware of how powerful Ben Beckman was.

"what?"

"Could there be other Zanpakuto in the Judge's restricted area?"

Both Ben Beckman and Jesus Bu's expressions changed drastically.

At first, they all thought that after Rosen started fighting with the Whitebeard Pirates, they would be able to easily capture the Judge Restricted Area.

however.

Hongo, who was lying in a pool of blood, and Hanaten's words made them realize that the Judge Restricted Area, a base second only to the headquarters in importance to the Navy, was far from as simple as they had initially expected.

What happened next made Ben Beckman and Jesus terrified.

锵

Hanaten waved his sleeves, and five Zanpakuto suddenly rose from the shadows under his feet.

"Eight to eight."

"Just right."

Hua Tian looked at Ben Beckman, his delicate and dignified face revealing a hint of amusement.

"what?"

When Ben Beckman saw this scene, his face, which was filled with murderous intent, revealed a hint of horror.

Is this really the Forbidden Zone of Judge?

In his opinion, this naval base should be called the Zanpakuto Restricted Area.

"Surprisingly, there are five more Zanpakutō."

Seeing this, Jesus swallowed with some difficulty.

Not only the two of them, but also Lucky Lu, Bendik Snake, Benk Punch, Mengshida, Lime Jones and Roaring Gabu, all the Red Hair Pirates who participated in the battle had solemn expressions.

"Rosen, how many Zanpakuto does he have stored in this base?"

Bendik Sneak almost couldn't help cursing.

Including Hanaten Kyouten, Sode no Shirayuki and Senbonzakura, this means that they will next face the eight materialized Zanpakutō created by Rosen.

The Red Hair Pirates, who originally had an absolute advantage, had lost all their advantages in numbers and combat power at this moment.

"Who knows?"

The corners of Hua Tian's lips slightly raised, outlining a playful arc, and then he gently waved his left hand, and five Zanpakuto rose from the ground, flew through the air, and landed in front of each of the Red Hair Pirates.

then.

锵

As bursts of sharp sword sounds were heard, five Zanpakutō rose from the shadows and materialized one after another.

In an instant, it changed from the form of a blade to the original appearance of a Zanpakutō.

"what is this?"

Jesus Bu stared at the strange figure in front of him.

In the last second, it was a Zanpakuto, and in the next second it turned into a strange figure wearing a light green cloak, with no clear face and body.

"Yes, it's Nishizuku."

Hongo supported himself on the ground with his right hand and raised his head with difficulty from the pool of blood. His eyes first fell on the blade held by the cloaked figure.

"A Zanpakutō that can swallow a person and heal their injuries?"

When Jesus heard the name Nishiku, he immediately thought of the ability of this knife.

Because Rosen has used the Nishizuku Knife many times in public, the appearance and abilities of this knife are no secret.

"That's true, but it may not be the case."

"After all, Zanpakuto has two levels: Shikai and Bankai."

"If Shikai is to bring out part of the power of Zanpakutō, then Bankai is the full power of Zanpakutō. And healing injuries is the ability of Nishizuku's Shikai, but Bankai is not necessarily the case."

Hongo gasped and glanced at the other four materialized Zanpakutō one after another.

It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it, but once he did his heart sank to the bottom.

Except for Nishizuku, he only recognized one of the remaining four materialized Zanpakutō, and could not recognize the other three at all.

In other words, among the five Zanpakutō, the abilities of three are unknown and there is no information at all.

In this way, it would be impossible for the Red Hair Pirates to take precautions in advance.

After experiencing firsthand the abilities of Katen Kyōkotsu and nearly being killed by Hatsumi, Hongo realized that facing off against some Zanpakutō with unknown abilities was too dangerous.

Even if you have more hard power than your opponent, you can still be easily defeated by the weaker side or even killed on the first encounter due to insufficient intelligence.

He is the best example.

"That should be a punishment from heaven!"

"Rosen used this Zanpakutō when he defeated Douglas Barrett. Combined with Rosen's Armament Haki, it has the ability to cut through everything in one blow."

"Of course, now that Rosen is gone, the power will be greatly weakened, but it should not be underestimated."

"As for the others, they are all Zanpakuto that we have never seen before. You must be careful and be fully alert to deal with them."

Hongo looked at the burly figure with fire in his mouth and a blade in his hand. He recognized the identity of Tenken through the appearance of the Zanpakutō in the other's hand, and then he did not forget to remind the other crew members.

"Leave it to us from now on."

"Hongo."

"Go back to the boat and rest first."

Ben Beckman said to Hongo who was struggling to get up from a pool of blood.

"Ok!"

Hongo nodded, then turned and retreated, but his eyes and observation Haki were always on guard against every materialized Zanpakutō, especially the shadow under his feet.

After suffering from Huatian Huanjuan's ability, he was extremely wary of Shadow.

In fact.

The members of the Red Hair Pirates are not very afraid of the natural-type fruit abilities that are as powerful as natural disasters. Instead, they are most wary of the gloomy and mysterious abilities like Hanaten Kyoukotsu.

After all, the first time Hua Tian Kuang Gu made a move, he killed a cadre of the Red Hair Group in seconds and injured the second-in-command of the Red Hair Group.

"Just right."

"We are both two."

"Then let's have a two-on-two battle!"

One of the Zanpakutō turned into a chain that bound a man and a woman.

The man was wearing a white long-sleeved shirt and had a defiant look on his face, with two snake fangs sticking out from the corners of his mouth.

The woman was wearing a green jumpsuit, a tall, plump brown-haired woman, revealing an unbridled wildness.

After they materialized, they immediately targeted Benk Punch and Meng Shida, who were also a duo.

"You, no."

"who are you?"

Benck Punch looked at the man and woman in front of him.

Although both are materialized from a Zanpakutō, it seems that the boy with snake fangs is the weapon, while the plump and tall brown-haired woman is the one who uses the weapon.

After a brief observation, he vaguely realized that the personalities of this man and woman were not as dignified and dignified as Hua Tian, ​​but rather secretive and gloomy, so he tried to get information from them.

"Yes!"

"If I don't even tell you our names, even if I kill both of you, the world won't know and remember our existence."

After hearing this, the snake-fang boy seemed to be thinking about something, then looked up at the brown-haired woman beside him.

"We call it Snake Tail Pill."

"Before you die, do your best to remember this name."

"Pirate."

A man and a woman looked at each other, and then spoke in unison.

They all saw what Benck Punch was up to, but they didn't care.

It's a rare opportunity for him to come out, and Sheweimaru just wants the pirate world to know his name.

Just like the names of Zanpakuto such as Zangetsu, Ryujin Jakka, and Hyorinmaru, they are known to the world and remembered by people.

Of course.

What they wanted most was for Rosen to remember them and use them more in the future.

The best way is to take advantage of the Red Hair Pirates' invasion of the Judge restricted area, and use the bodies of Bunker Benz and Monstar, two cadre-level pirates, to make the name of Snaketail Maru famous throughout the world.

In this way, the name Jabimaru will definitely come into Rosen's field of vision and gain Rosen's favor like other Zanpakuto such as Kyoka Suigetsu and Zangetsu.

This is not just Sheweimaru's idea.

All Zanpakutō hold this thought in mind after materializing.

If ONE PIECE is the ultimate dream of pirates, then gaining the favor of Rosen and becoming the strongest sword in his hand is the ultimate dream of all Zanpakutō.

Including Katen Kyoukotsu, who was specially left behind by Rosen to control the materialized Zanpakuto, every materialized Zanpakuto was now trying their best to prove their strength by stepping on the corpses of the Red Hair Pirates.

then.

It became the strongest, most trusted and most relied upon Zanpakutō in Rosen's hand.
