Without any forewarning, struck by Jotaro's fist directly on the face, Arlong's mouth was filled with gushing blood, and his sharp teeth shattered all over the ground.
His face was full of shock, his massive body trembling incessantly from rage.
"You inferior race… actually… actually dare… actually dare to attack the noble fishmen!!"
"I'll slaughter you!"
Jotaro glanced coldly at him. Towards this kind of idiot, he had never shown the slightest respect.
Rather than talking big principles, he much preferred solving problems with his fists.
"Boss Arlong, you don't need to make a move, just leave this guy to us."
One of Arlong's officers, Kuroobi, advised, "If you personally take action, the entire Cocoyasi Village might end up destroyed like Gosa Village, and then the money I receive afterward will become less."
Arlong's face sank as he thought for a moment, then grimly said, "Then I'll leave it to you. Remember to tear this guy into eight pieces, I want to throw him into the sea to feed the fish!"
He looked towards the other two officers.
"Don't waste time, go together. Remember, don't underestimate him, this guy is very likely a Devil Fruit user."
How could an ordinary person possibly flip over a fishman like him with just one punch?
Furthermore, that punch Jotaro threw just now was purely delivered by a Stand, without even using Haki.
That was why Arlong felt it was strange.
Only if Jotaro were a Devil Fruit user could it make sense.
He looked like a brute, yet his brain was not stupid at all; not attacking immediately was because he wanted his subordinates to first test Jotaro's depths.
"Devil Fruit?"
The three officers' expressions slightly changed.
This thing was not unfamiliar to those born in the Grand Line, there, Devil Fruit users were everywhere.
Basically, every powerful pirate crew had such people.
"It's just a pity this is land, if it were on the sea, I alone could easily deal with him," Kuroobi said somewhat regretfully.
"Even so, three officers against one of him is still making a big fuss over nothing," Chew said with arms crossed, his eyes filled with disdain.
Devil Fruit users, who became useless the moment they touched seawater, in his view were only lowly existences.
However, since Arlong had already given the order, even if the three were dissatisfied, they would not say more.
Hachi took action first, bending his waist, his body tensing, as though compressing something.
Jotaro naturally would not give him the chance to strike.
That thing that looked like an octopus, what he planned to do, Jotaro could guess with his toes.
"Octopus Hachi 'Pitch Black'!"
"ORA!"
The moment before Hachi could spray ink, Star Platinum's fist struck his cheek.
"Zzzzzz!"
A burst of spraying, thick black ink was all sprayed onto Kuroobi and Chew beside him.
"Damn! I can't see anything!"
"Hachi, you bastard, what were you aiming at!"
The two cursed as they wiped the ink from their faces and bodies.
"What happened?" Hachi covered his red, swollen face, somewhat unable to figure it out.
He remembered that at the moment he sprayed, something seemed to hit his face, causing his trajectory to veer to the side.
"I'll do it again!" He once again made the motion of spraying ink. "This time there won't be any accidents, watch my saliva!"
"ORA!"
Star Platinum's perfectly timed punch struck Octopus Hachi's cheek again, this time with even greater force.
"You bastard! Just what do you think you're doing!"
Arlong, drenched head-to-toe in Hachi's ink, bared his teeth and roared furiously.
Hachi covered his mouth, never expecting that this time he would end up spraying his own boss.
Humiliated and angry, he looked toward the nearby Cocoyasi villagers who were watching from not far away, raging.
"Who is it! Who's playing tricks on me?"
He first ruled out Jotaro, because in his line of sight, the opponent hadn't moved at all.
Then the culprit must be hiding among these crowds, taking advantage of his carelessness to attack him.
The Cocoyasi villagers looked at each other, puzzled.
"What's with this fishman clowning around? Why is he spraying ink at his own companions?"
"No idea, feels like his brain's not working too well."
These words entered Hachi's ears, making him so ashamed he wished he could disappear.
This time, he directly took out his trump card, Six-Sword Style.
Jotaro's gaze rarely showed a trace of seriousness; after taking up the swords, the aura of the octopus fishman changed drastically.
He glanced at the wound on his shoulder, thinking to himself, 'Must make a quick battle.'
After fighting Hawkeye, up until now, he hadn't had a proper rest.
Using Ripple and his Stand to help the refugees of Gosa Village had also drained too much energy.
Jotaro knew his physical condition was gradually worsening, so he had to defeat these fishmen quickly.
"Six-Sword Style, Octopus Open Gate!"
Hachi charged fiercely, six cold blades slashing at Jotaro simultaneously.
"Quickly dodge!" Genzo shouted in a deep voice.
A human only had two hands, how could they block six swords? Moreover, Jotaro was unarmed.
"ORA ORA ORA ORA!"
Star Platinum's fists swung rapidly, hovering in front of Jotaro, as if forming the hardest barrier in the world.
"The swords bounced off?"
Not only Hachi, but the other fishmen were also extremely shocked, looking in disbelief at the scene before them.
Hachi had never seen such an enemy before; gritting his teeth, he immediately used the ultimate move of the Six-Sword Style.
"Six-Sword Waltz!"
His whole body spun like a top, driving the six swords to rotate endlessly.
Under extreme speed, the six swords created afterimages, leaving not a single bit of blind spot at 360 degrees.
In others' eyes, it was indeed so, yet the one he faced was Jotaro, who possessed the most precise Stand in the world.
"ORA ORA ORA!"
Star Platinum's hands directly entered the sword shadows. Strangely, the rapidly spinning swords did not cut him, nor even touch his movement trajectory.
Several precise punches struck the hilts, the swords in Hachi's hands instantly flew out.
"Not good!"
At that moment, the blades had completely gone out of control, he watched helplessly as one sword stabbed toward his own eye.
The sword was incredibly fast, completely impossible to block.
"ORA ORA ORA ORA!"
Star Platinum unleashed another barrage of attacks, the overwhelming fists turned the six swords into a pile of metal scrap.
Hachi fell to the ground, his heart filled with lingering fear.
If Jotaro weren't the enemy of the fishmen, he might have thanked him.
If not for his timely action in destroying the six swords, his eyes and body would definitely have been full of holes.
Arlong's face grew darker and darker, he had already seen that Hachi had lost the will to fight, and secondly, Jotaro was simply too strange.
What on earth had he done.
This kind of Devil Fruit ability he had never seen nor heard of.
"Could it be a Logia-type fruit, could it be controlling air?"
As a former officer of the Sun Pirates, he was still quite knowledgeable.
"Logia-type fruits are recognized as the strongest among the three categories of Devil Fruits. That Hachi would lose is understandable."
Arlong looked at the other two officers.
"You two go together, don't be careless again!"
