Chapter 469 - Chapter 470: Gaenie VS Saint Saturn

"Hahahaha, what a joke! You underestimate our Captain's magnanimity too much. Let alone a former Celestial Dragon, even one of the current Gorosei, as long as they are willing to defect to the Limitless Pirates, our Captain can accommodate him!"

"Only weak and narrow-minded people like your World Government will be suspicious of their subordinates and can't even tolerate their own subordinates!"

"For our Captain, he can tolerate anyone, but if anyone dares to betray our Captain, our Captain's sword will personally cut off his head. No one in the world can stop our Captain's sword, even the Gorosei have been killed by our Captain, this is the best proof!"

Marcus mocked mercilessly.

"Static Penetration!!"

As he spoke, countless hairs on his body coiled into ten sharp, Busoshoku Haki-covered spears, carrying a large amount of static electricity as they fiercely thrust forward.

Seeing this, Erebus immediately wanted to dodge, but the direction he dodged in was exactly the direction Mounis was charging from. His retreat was blocked!

"Freezing Spire!"

Mounis's lower body transformed into hot steam, propelling him forward, while his upper body's extremely cold steam rotated into a cone shape, directly crashing into Erebus.

Erebus simultaneously punched out with both fists, trying to block the attacks of Marcus and Mounis with his own strength.

"Ah!!!"

But he overestimated his strength and underestimated the combined attack of Marcus and Mounis.

Under the impact of the two, although Erebus's fists blocked the attacks of Marcus and Mounis, both the extreme cold steam impact and the static electricity impact directly passed through Erebus's fists and hit his body.

His body was severely injured by the simultaneous impact from both sides.

"Kick Line!!"

At this moment, Doflamingo immediately rushed over, kicking Erebus's head with a descending blow.

"Get lost!!!"

Erebus was indeed a body art expert and had eaten the Ancient Zoan Lion King Devil Fruit ability. Despite suffering such an attack, he still had enough strength to shake off Marcus and the other two.

However, that was all he could do. Facing the siege of the three, if no one came to help him, he wouldn't be able to last long at all.

"Fufufufufufu, wouldn't it be better to just die obediently? You insist on making pointless struggles and enduring the most brutal beating in the world!"

Seeing Erebus still struggling desperately, Doflamingo let out his classic mocking laugh, while relentlessly continuing his fierce assault on Erebus.

"Damn it, am I really going to die here!"

As Erebus continuously blocked the storm-like attacks of Doflamingo and the other two, his heart was filled with unwillingness.

He hated these Pirates and also hated why his colleagues didn't come to save him, leaving him to be besieged by three people.

Most importantly, he hated that damned Marine, who, as his dog, had actually betrayed him and was now trying to bite its master!

"Damn Marine, how dare they betray the World Government!"

After hearing Mounis's words and seeing the precarious situation of the World Government on the battlefield, Saint Saturn couldn't help but curse out loud.

Things had reached this point, and he couldn't help but want to use the uranus to bombard Mary Geoise and wipe out all the Pirates.

However, he no longer had this right. With Imu awake, they, the Gorosei, could not use the uranus. The control was in Imu's hands, not theirs.

The most crucial thing was that they had confidently said they would defeat the Pirates before, but now they were completely pushed to their doorstep by the Pirates and thoroughly suppressed!

The thought of Imu watching in the dark made Saint Saturn shiver!

"Our Limitless Pirates are the masters of this World, that's why the Marine is helping our Limitless Pirates deal with your World Government!"

Hearing Saint Saturn's angry nonsense, Gaenie couldn't help but mock him with disdain.

"Also, old man, you dare to be distracted while fighting me? Who gave you the courage!"

The next moment, before Saint Saturn could respond, Great Grade Sword · Second Generation Raikiri, like a flying sword, pierced towards Saint Saturn's neck from the side with lightning speed.

"This little trick, this old man knew long ago!"

Saint Saturn snorted coldly, his massive body stepping back. Then, twisting his head, he used his black bull horn covered in Busoshoku Haki to collide with the Second Generation Raikiri, directly knocking it away.

"Of course I knew you knew, that's why I deliberately let you know!"

Gaenie smiled slightly. While the Second Generation Raikiri was attracting the opponent's attention, he had already arrived on the other side of Saint Saturn's neck.

"Horizontal Sword Technique · First Line of Sky!!"

The Supreme Grade Swords · Ryusui in Gaenie's hand emitted an aura of infinite sharpness. As he swung his sword, the entire world seemed to be split open by his single strike.

"Damn it, when did he appear!"

Saint Saturn was shocked to find that his Kenbunshoku Haki had not detected Gaenie's presence just now, so much so that he only noticed when the opponent was within close proximity!!

However, even if he was momentarily caught off guard, Saint Saturn still mobilized his two front spider legs at the fastest speed.

One spider leg stabbed towards Gaenie's head, trying to make him give up on that sword strike.

The other spider leg blocked in front of his neck, trying to block Gaenie's sword.

Facing Saint Saturn's counterattack, Gaenie still swung that sword down without hesitation.

"Crack!!!"

When Ryusui struck Saint Saturn's spider leg, an invisible force of sharpness acted as the vanguard, carrying the power of Gaenie's ability and Haki perfectly combined, directly cutting off the Busoshoku Haki-covered spider leg.

After cutting off the spider leg blocking the way, Ryusui continued its relentless attack, striking Saint Saturn's neck.

"Rip!!!"

Gaenie's full-power strike directly broke through the Busoshoku Haki on Saint Saturn's neck, severing Saint Saturn's carotid artery, and countless amounts of blood gushed out.

If it were a normal person, this single strike would have been enough to kill the opponent. Even if the opponent was an Awakened Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit user, they would die after their carotid artery was severed.

But the Saint Saturn in front of him used another spider leg to press tightly against his head, preventing his head from falling off, thereby forcefully stopping the blood from continuing to gush out.

On the other side, that one spider leg still stabbed towards Gaenie's head.

"Clang!!!"

However, at this moment, the large door-like sword that Gaenie had been using to step on for flight flew over, blocking the spider leg's sneak attack for Gaenie.

"What a powerful immortal body!"

Gaenie saw that in just a moment, the wound on Saint Saturn's carotid artery that he had severed had stopped bleeding and was recovering at a visible speed. This completely exceeded the self-healing ability of an Awakened Mythical Zoan, it was a genuine immortal body!

Even though he had witnessed the power of Saint Saturn's immortal body before, he instinctively thought that as long as he severed the opponent's carotid artery, he could kill the opponent.

Now it seemed that even if he cut off the opponent's head, he probably still wouldn't be able to kill the opponent.

"It's a pity, my ability cannot control Sea Stone, otherwise I might be able to kill him with a Sea Stone sword!"

When his Father killed one of the Gorosei back then, he used a Sea Stone sword. He also wanted to use a Sea Stone sword, and he had a Sea Stone sword at his waist.

However, his electromagnetic ability couldn't control the Sea Stone sword. To use this sword, he had to hold it himself.

But he could clearly sense that the opponent was always wary of the Sea Stone sword at his waist.

Furthermore, he couldn't exert his full strength with the Sea Stone sword, nor could he easily defeat the opponent, let alone use the Sea Stone sword to break through the opponent's Busoshoku Haki defense and then insert the Sea Stone sword into the opponent's body.

In short, his strength was too far behind his Father's, and he couldn't use the same method to kill the Gorosei.

"Why is that sword so sharp!"

Compared to Gaenie's surprise at his immortal body's toughness, the Gorosei was even more shocked by the sharpness of that sword.

He had clearly felt an unusually sharp force just now. That was not the power of Haki or Sword Intent, nor was it the power of the Magnet Fruit, but a pure sharpness. It was because of that sharp force that Gaenie could easily cut off his Busoshoku Haki-covered spider leg and the Busoshoku Haki on his neck!

"You'll know why if you feel it again!"

Although Gaenie was surprised, his actions were not slow at all. While Saint Saturn's neck injury had not fully healed, he held Ryusui and swung it again.

At the same time, the Second Generation Raikiri and the large door-like sword attacked from the other two sides.

This method of attack made Saint Saturn feel as if he was being besieged by three people.

Facing the attacks of the Second Generation Raikiri and the door-like sword, Saint Saturn simply didn't dodge, hardening his body with Busoshoku Haki and taking the hits head-on.

"Fierce Eye!!"

However, facing Gaenie who held Ryusui, Saint Saturn didn't dare to take it head-on. A fierce and malevolent eye shot directly towards Gaenie.

"Slash!!"

Facing that fierce eye, Gaenie was not afraid at all. With a raise of his hand, he swung a sword, and in an instant, that fierce eye was split in two by Gaenie.

Breaking through the fierce eye, Gaenie ruthlessly swung towards Saint Saturn's neck again.

However, this time Saint Saturn was already prepared in advance. While blocking with another spider leg in front, he quickly dodged.

Inevitably, Saint Saturn successfully dodged Gaenie's sword, at the cost of having another spider leg severed.

Saint Saturn didn't care about this at all, because to him, if it was severed, it would just grow back. This thing was just a consumable!

Saint Saturn's attention was now focused on the Ryusui in Gaenie's hand, and he immediately discovered something amiss.

"That sword is not normal, it's the power of a Devil Fruit, a sword actually ate a Devil Fruit!"

But it was precisely this discovery that shocked him. It was nothing for humans and animals to eat Devil Fruits, because both humans and animals are living beings, but now he found that inanimate objects, non-living things, could also eat Devil Fruits and even unleash the power of Devil Fruits. This completely overturned his understanding of the power of Devil Fruits!

"Did you find out? But even if you did, what difference does it make? It won't change your current situation!"

"I don't believe your immortal body is infinitely immortal. If killing you once isn't enough, then I'll kill you ten thousand times!"

Gaenie said confidently.

An immortal body was only relatively immortal. He didn't believe that this power of healing injuries was without cost. As long as that power was exhausted, the opponent would have to die!

And the Supreme Grade Swords · Ryusui in his hand, as Saint Saturn said, was a sword that had eaten a Devil Fruit, specifically the Paramecia-type Sharp-Sharp Fruit.

Ryusui itself was already known as the sharpest of the Supreme Grade Swords. Now that it had eaten the Sharp-Sharp Fruit, its sharpness was even greater. There was almost nothing in this world that Ryusui's sharpness couldn't cut through!

As he spoke, Gaenie closed in again, swinging the Ryusui in his hand!

"If Nox were in front of me, I would be wary of him, but you, a young sprout, are far too inferior!"

After understanding the power of that sword, Saint Saturn naturally devised a strategy. As long as he blocked that sword, there was nothing to fear from the opponent.

He had an immortal body and countless opportunities to make mistakes, but the opponent was a Paramecia Fruit user with weak defense. As long as he successfully landed a few heavy blows on the opponent, he could kill him!

In fact, it was exactly as Saint Saturn said. The moment Gaenie drew his sword, Saint Saturn used his spider legs as sacrifices and then sprayed a mouthful of venom towards Gaenie.

However, Gaenie's ability was not limited to the sword in his hand; he also had the Magnet Fruit ability!

"Magnetic Barrier!"

Invisible magnetic force materialized into a substantial barrier, easily intercepting the venom in the air.

"Ox-Demon Charge!"

Even though Saint Saturn had lost a few spider legs, his balance remained excellent. While spitting venom, he charged directly forward relying on his massive body.

"Electromagnetic Cannon!!"

Facing Saint Saturn's charge, Gaenie had no intention of dodging. With a wave of his hand, the Second Generation Raikiri appeared in front of him. With the convergence of electromagnetic force, a purple vortex formed.

In an instant, the Second Generation Raikiri transformed into a purple shooting star cannon and shot out, colliding with Saint Saturn's bull horn.

Vast electromagnetic force surged out. Even though it wasn't charged for long, its power was astonishingly strong!

Even Saint Saturn's hardest bull horn was severed by the Second Generation Raikiri at this moment. The Second Generation Raikiri even cut off a large chunk of flesh from Saint Saturn's shoulder.

Instantly, Saint Saturn's entire body was sent flying like a kite with a broken string.

Gaenie's entire body was enveloped in electromagnetic force, and in an instant, he caught up to Saint Saturn who had fallen to the ground.

"Aside from being unable to die, you are utterly useless!"

Gaenie now stood above Saint Saturn, holding the Ryusui. Countless electromagnetic forces converged, transforming into a hundred-meter-long towering electromagnetic giant sword.
