"How could I possibly be killed by a brat like you!"
"Life Return!"
Perhaps to mask the fear in his heart, Jenore roared, all the muscles in his body bulged slightly, and wisps of white smoke rose from his body.
The technique of Life Return to strengthen oneself, as a body art expert, he naturally knew how to use it, after all, this thing was part of the World Government's training system!
"Iron Arm · Bloodfall!"
There was a faint surge of blood within the black iron arm, and when he punched out, it was like a black-red sun falling.
Behind Nox, a phantom of a bloody sword god appeared, and an unprecedentedly powerful force bloomed from the Seven Star Sword.
The bloody sword god phantom suddenly opened its eyes, and Nox instantly transformed into a wisp of bloody light, charging towards Jenore.
"Three Elements Combined Mystery · Overlord Wrapped · Slaying God!"
With a single sword strike, the sword god phantom instantly merged into the Seven Star Sword, pushing the sword's edge to its limit. The current Seven Star Sword was like a god-slaying sword; even a god would be slain before it!
"Die for me!!"
Jenore roared madly. This punch carried all of Jenore's conviction. As the name suggested, with one punch, either the enemy died, or he died!
"Tear!!!"
However, such a punch, which gathered all of his conviction, was no match for the sharpness of the Seven Star Sword.
Just at the moment of collision, Jenore's proud top-tier Busoshoku Haki was forcefully shattered by the Seven Star Sword.
Even Jenore's iron arm fist, tempered for decades, had the five finger bones of its fist severed by the sharpness of the Seven Star Sword in that instant.
Furthermore, the Seven Star Sword continued its momentum like a broken bamboo, slashing towards his chest, severing eight of his ribs.
Had Jenore not retreated half a step, perhaps even his heart would have been shattered at that moment!
Jenore could not believe the vast difference between himself and Nox. With just one sword strike, he was defeated, and even his iron arm, which had been tempered for years, was severed by a single sword strike!
"Puchi!!!"
A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out from his mouth, and his body instinctively wanted to distance itself from Nox.
"I said I would send you down to reunite with your two subordinates, and I never break my word!"
However, the moment Jenore retreated, Nox directly transformed into a bloody shadow and disappeared from his original position.
Seeing Nox disappear before his eyes, Jenore subconsciously used Kenbunshoku Haki to search for Nox's whereabouts. However, when he found Nox's trace, he realized it was too late!
The Seven Star Sword, which made his soul tremble, was slashing towards the back of his neck at an extreme speed. His Kenbunshoku Haki saw it, but his body couldn't react in time.
His brain had just issued the command to his body, but before his body's motor nerves could execute it, the Seven Star Sword had already touched his neck.
The defense of the top-tier Busoshoku Haki was like ordinary sheet metal in front of the Seven Star Sword, easily severed. Even his bones were still like ordinary iron pillars in front of the Seven Star Sword, completely unable to block the sharpness of the Seven Star Sword.
"Puchi!!!"
Time seemed to freeze for a moment, and a red light flashed across Jenore's neck.
"I'm not willing..."
Jenore realized that his neck had been severed, but his consciousness had not yet dissipated. His eyes were filled with unwillingness and regret.
He should not have been so greedy for power back then. He should not have stayed in this position at his age. Three years ago, he should have resigned from this position, retired to his hometown, and lived a retired life.
If he had chosen to resign back then, he would not have died here today.
"Under my sword, whether you are willing or not, you will die!"
"When you reincarnate in your next life, remember to beg the King of Hell not to let you be reincarnated as my enemy."
After Nox finished speaking, Jenore's body fell down. Blood spurted out from the severed neck, but all the blood flowed upwards, pouring into the Seven Star Sword. Finally, Jenore's corpse turned into a dried corpse.
"Life Return · Release!"
"Blood Boil · Stop!"
Immediately after, Nox's limbs and blood all returned to normal, and a feeling of weakness swept through his entire body.
This was the side effect of using temporary battle power enhancement, which was unavoidable.
But after only three breaths, relying on his strong recovery ability, that feeling of weakness completely disappeared.
"Gorosei, I wonder if you are truly unkillable!"
Nox narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction where the Gorosei and the Executive Officers were fighting. Although his eyes couldn't see, his Kenbunshoku Haki could see clearly.
He hadn't gone to find the Gorosei before because he knew that the Gorosei all possessed a tenacious vitality that was almost unkillable.
That's why he chose Jenore, a top-tier combatant he was confident he could kill, to make an example of. Now that Jenore was dead, there were only those five Gorosei left!
In the past, when the Limitless Pirates hadn't grown up, he was unwilling to take on the Gorosei. Now that the Limitless Pirates had grown up, even if the Gorosei were all gathered in the Limitless Sea, he was completely fearless. Therefore, his eyes were now filled with madness!
"Brat, go to hell!"
Saint Saturn, in his complete Oni-Bull form, had his horns turn black and charged from afar towards Diamond Titan Bullet.
"Hahahaha, old man, your horns aren't strong enough!"
Bullet also ran quickly, and his massive Titan fist turned black.
"Puchi!!"
However, just as the two sides were approaching, Saint Saturn suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a large amount of venom, which shot onto Bullet's Diamond Titan body.
Bullet's body was too large to avoid the venom spray, so he could only defend with Busoshoku Haki.
But the venom was terrifying. Even Bullet's Busoshoku Haki was corroded by the venom, and it even corroded some of Bullet's Diamond Titan skin and flesh.
After Bullet discovered the terror of the venom, he used gravity to remove all the venom from his body.
But at this moment, Saint Saturn had already charged over, and his horns were aimed at the spot that had just been corroded by the venom and charged into it.
"Chichi!!!"
The horns forcefully broke through Bullet's defense along the wound and inserted into his Diamond Titan body.
"Treacherous old man!!"
Bullet endured the intense pain in his body, stabilized his lower body with his feet, and condensed terrifying Busoshoku Haki in his hands to smash Saint Saturn's head, embedding Saint Saturn's entire head into the ground.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bullet retreated again, allowing the horns to be pulled out of his body, and then used the technique of Life Return to stabilize the pierced wound.
"Bullet, dodge!!"
Just as Bullet wanted to charge up again and beat this cunning old Gorosei to death, he heard Nox's Kenbunshoku Haki sound transmission, and then decisively retreated, leaving the battlefield position to his Captain.
Since his Captain had already dealt with his opponent and came to find his opponent, Bullet could only take a step back.
After all, being battle-hungry was one thing, but he didn't like being abused. If he dared not listen to his Captain, then after returning, he would definitely be abused to death and back by his Captain.
And it would be in front of the many brothers he usually bragged to. How embarrassing would that be!
"Hmm? What's going on?"
Saint Saturn looked at Bullet who was retreating, feeling puzzled.
"How is that possible!"
"How is he here? Could it be that Jenore has been killed by this guy?"
But the next moment, his Kenbunshoku Haki detected something unusual above his head, and he subconsciously looked up, only to discover something that surprised even himself.
The clouds in the sky were forcefully gathered by an invisible vortex of gravity, forming a funnel shape, with the rolling clouds pouring into the lowest point of the funnel.
Nox, holding the Seven Star Sword, dived down at an extreme speed. Countless streams of air in the heavens and earth surged towards him, all of which were completely compressed around the Seven Star Sword by Nox with powerful Haki and Sword Intent.
Layers of bloody red lightning erupted from the sword, sweeping across dozens of miles. The entire sky instantly turned into a world of lightning.
Saint Saturn was shocked as he watched Nox appear in the sky. He clearly remembered that Nox's opponent was Army Marshal Jenore.
Even if Nox had the ability to kill Jenore, it was impossible to kill Jenore in just a few minutes!
"Life Return · Limb Normal Enhancement!"
"Three-Element Fusion Secret Art - Domineering Enchantment - Domineering Country!"
Nox roared, and the moment his limbs were amplified, he unleashed the Seven Star Sword with all his might. Instantly, the heavens and earth trembled, and an extremely powerful force erupted, transforming into a dazzling meteor-like shockwave that swept down.
Saint Saturn had no time to dodge this sudden and violent shockwave. The shockwave seemed to have completely locked onto him, and no matter what he did, he couldn't escape.
"Ox-Oni Secret Art · Iron Body Warrior!"
Busoshoku Haki instantly covered Saint Saturn's entire body. All of his spider legs closed and rooted themselves in the ground, his head was buried beneath his body, and his entire body was curled up into a ball to resist the shockwave that made him tremble!
As the meteor-like shockwave descended, the heavens and earth trembled, and the earth collapsed.
The supreme power and unparalleled penetrative force shattered even Saint Saturn's Busoshoku Haki in an instant.
The extreme impact instantly destroyed the skin, muscles, and bones on Saint Saturn's back. The vast Haki even forcefully rushed into his body, destroying his internal organs.
The spider legs rooted in the ground could not withstand the immense pressure of the impact, and four of the spider legs instantly broke off.
The head hidden in his abdomen also suffered from the pressure of his body collapsing downwards, causing Saint Saturn's entire head to be squeezed by his own body, resulting in a splitting headache.
The entire island began to shake under this single shockwave. The earth tore open, and a giant pit tens of thousands of meters deep appeared on the island. Saint Saturn in the pit was beaten to a pulp all over his body.
With just one move, Saint Saturn's Ox-Oni body was beaten into a state that was no longer recognizable as an ox. Looking from afar, one could see various internal organs pulsating in his body, and blood flowed out like a fountain.
