Chapter 51: Marine Assault, I'm Fighting the Elites!
The banquet was still going!
Lister drank a lot of wine.
When people toasted him, he didn't refuse.
He completely dropped his airs and mingled with everyone.
After this long period of contact.
Everyone gradually got to know Lister.
As long as it wasn't a special situation, Lister was easy to talk to.
At the banquet, everyone also gradually let go of their awe for him.
They boasted and joked without reservations.
"Captain, we have a situation!!"
"Warships have appeared on the sea!!"
Suddenly, a voice came from the crow's nest of the main ship.
The originally noisy banquet suddenly fell silent!
Lister stood up abruptly!
He walked towards the bow.
"Telescope!"
Youlan quickly found a telescope and handed it to Lister!
Lister took the telescope and looked out at the sea.
One, two, three, four, five... ten... twenty... thirty, thirty-one, thirty-two!!!
Good grief!
A full thirty-two warships had formed an encirclement, completely blockading the entire sea surface.
They were closing in on the Money Pirates.
Seeing this scene, Lister couldn't help but suck in a cold breath.
"Stop eating! The Marines have surrounded us! Hurry up, pack your things, get moving! We have to break out, otherwise, we'll be wiped out by this group of Marines sooner or later!" Lister roared.
All the pirates of the Money Pirates instantly scrambled into action.
In just a few minutes, everyone was at their stations!
"Set sail!!!"
"Lister, which direction are we going to break out from??" Nami asked nervously.
"Do we need to choose? Of course we're breaking through the center!" Lister said without thinking.
"But the Marines' elite are in the center!" Nami said, speechless.
"I'm here to *fight* the elite!"
Lister sneered!!
Since they dared to encircle them, he had to return the favor, right?
Otherwise, people would say he was rude.
"Commodore Brin-Brin."
"The Money Pirates seem to have spotted us and are charging this way. Shouldn't we make a move?"
"Are the Money Pirates within cannon range??"
"They are!!"
"Then it's indeed time to act! Marine Headquarters is paying close attention to this operation. We absolutely cannot let them escape!"
Commodore Brin-Brin of the 77th Branch was the highest-ranking Marine in this operation to encircle the Money Pirates.
Therefore, he was also the person in charge of this operation.
After saying this, he directly roared: "Fire!"
"Fire!!"
*Boom——————!*
Thirty-two warships fired at the same time.
In an instant, the sky was filled with cannonballs bombarding the Money Pirates!
"Overclock mode!!" Lister instantly entered his overclocked state.
In an instant.
The world became incredibly clear in his vision.
Everything seemed to slow down.
The flight trajectories of those cannonballs were all within Lister's grasp.
At this moment, Lister moved.
He turned into a streak of light, with a *whoosh*.
He swept across the thirteen pirate ships.
Wherever he passed, all cannonballs that might hit the ships were sliced apart.
The cannonballs, split in two, fell into the sea like dumplings, *splash, splash, splash*.
"It's rude not to reciprocate! Counter-attack for me!"
Lister said coldly.
"Fire!!!"
"Fire!!!"
"Fire!!!"
The officers on each pirate ship roared in unison.
*Rumble!!*
In an instant, the cannons on the thirteen pirate ships also began to fire.
And they all fired towards the center of the encirclement!!
"Let me!"
A short, thin man wearing a gray tunic suit and sunglasses stepped forward.
"Kama - Tornado!!"
The man's palm formed a sword-finger and waved continuously.
Soon, a tornado was suddenly generated, moving to devour all the incoming cannonballs.
*Boom——————!*
One by one, the cannonballs exploded inside the tornado.
Aside from making the people on the warships feel the blustering wind, it didn't affect anyone on the ships.
"Eric, well done!"
Admiral Nelson Royale of the 8th Marine Branch praised loudly.
Eric was his mercenary.
Eric's merit was equivalent to his merit.
Naturally, he had to praise Eric!
"Well done!" Commodore Brin-Brin on the adjacent warship also nodded, affirming his action.
"Blocked??"
Lister raised an eyebrow.
"A tornado?? Is that the Kama Kama no Mi (Sickle-Sickle Fruit) user??"
At this time, both sides fired again.
Lister moved at super-speed again, knocking down all the incoming cannonballs. At the same time, he observed the opponent carefully.
"Kama - Tornado!!"
At this time, Eric used the same trick again.
He swung out a tornado.
Devouring all the cannonballs fired by the Money Pirates tens of meters away from the warships.
[Detected Eric using the Kama Kama no Mi ability, pulling the power of wind to attack. Detected the rhythm of the wind!]
[From the wind's rhythm, comprehended Flying Slashes!]
[After comprehending Flying Slashes, began recalling hot-blooded anime seen in a previous world!]
[Comprehended Getsuga Tenshō!]
[Comprehended Cross Slash!]
[Comprehended Fánnǎo Fēng (Bothering Wind)!]
*Rumble!!*
At this time, both sides began a new round of cannon fire.
Lister returned to his senses from the burst of inspiration, the super-enlightenment.
"Senbyaku Fánnǎo Fēng (Thousand Hundred Bothering Wind)!!"
Watching the cannonballs firing again, Lister suddenly swung his sword.
The omnipresent wind was pulled.
Finally forming a large tornado.
Blocking all the cannonballs outside.
Everyone in the Money Pirates was dumbfounded.
Especially Zoro. He felt that this move from Lister had an indivisible, wonderful connection with himself.
"Strange, why do I have this feeling!"
"Suddenly, why do I feel like I'm living in Lister's shadow..."
On the warship.
Eric watched Lister's move, which was somewhat similar to his tornado, and his pupils shrank suddenly?
"What's the situation? Did he already know this move, or did he learn it from me!"
