Chapter 157 Dwelling in the high heavens, carrying the raging flames of the earth.
【Renwu Port】
It's 23 p.m.
The crescent moon hangs high, occasionally swept by a wisp of night wind.
The clouds weren't black, but rather gray, resembling 5D thick black stockings.
As the moon rises higher into the sky, it casts down a downward-looking moonlight.
[Shadow Squad Base]
Noisy sounds came from the courtyard.
It's unclear whether it was the original candlelight or the bustling activity of humans that attracted the moonlight.
The courtyard, which resembled a traditional Chinese courtyard house, was dazzling and didn't look like the kind of night one would expect in Wano Country.
"Boss, this quarter's harvest is much better than last quarter's. It seems more and more workers are joining our Chaotic Shadow Group!"
"Of course! Our Chaotic Shadow Group is the strongest in White Dance!"
"That so-called Mad Night Group, ugh~~ trash, how dare they openly challenge us!"
"Let's drink! I'm going to take a stroll through the White Dance Gallery later, hahaha!!"
Outside the door, a cluster of flames suddenly lit up on the back of Jhin.
"The moon is bright and the stars are few, to use Bazel's words..."
boom--!!
The door flew inside, knocking down the samurai guarding the door.
"Tonight is the perfect night for the hunt."
"You bastard, don't you know this is the Chaotic Shadow Squad?!"
A somewhat awkward rap-like sound came through.
Jinbe stepped forward, extending his left arm, which was wrapped in Armament Haki, to block the samurai's hand, which was half-drawn from its sheath.
His gaze swept over the police officer's hair above the other person's head.
"A samurai, huh? Let me test the so-called power of a samurai."
The powerful force suppressed the enemy's trembling right hand.
The wandering martial artist noticed the difference in power and his expression changed slightly.
"You monster, how dare you provoke the Chaotic Shadow Group?!"
"Monster? I am a fishman."
After taking a step back with his right leg and assuming a lunge stance, Jinbe released his left hand that was pressing down on the enemy.
"Fishman Karate!"
"Three thousand tiles, straight punch!"
Whoosh—boom boom boom!
The wandering samurai, who was knocked away, crashed through the artificial hill and the screen used to block the view.
She fell in front of the scarred man.
Suzuki Juro paused for a moment as he drank, then, after finishing his drink, he looked up and used his remaining eye to see the people entering the banquet hall.
"A man, five monsters, a little girl, and a lizard."
He raised his hand and waved it, and the wandering martial artists who had drawn their swords retreated and sat down.
"I'm Suzuki Juichiro, who are you?"
"—There's no point in asking so many questions. I'll give you two choices."
Jin looked down at the man at the far end of the room.
"First, submit. Second, I will kill you, and the history of the Chaotic Shadow Group will end today."
"Heh~"
Juichiro Suzuki shook his head and chuckled.
"I haven't heard a joke like this in ages. You, an outsider, think you can make me submit with just a few words?"
"Who gave you the courage?"
"Or do you think that eliminating one of my men will scare me?"
He gently placed the wine glass on the table and slowly rose.
"I am Suzuki Juichiro, also known as the 'Desperate Jeichiro'."
"I'll show you what my swordsmanship is all about!"
"Get out of the way, you little minions, this guy is mine—"
With his swords gripped in both hands, Suzuki Juro charged toward Jin with small, quick steps.
"Prey!"
call--!
A swift, downward slash.
But he didn't even blink.
The blade struck as intended.
But Suzuki Juichiro's expression changed slightly as he jumped back at lightning speed.
That speed was several times faster than when charging.
"What's wrong? Why are you backing away?"
Chi Jing glanced at the tattered leather jacket, then turned his merciless eyes to Suzuki Juro.
"If your power is limited to this, then I'm afraid the entire White Dance would have no desire to make me go all out."
"You are too weak."
Suzuki Juro sneered a few times: "Don't think you can act recklessly just because you're wearing armor under your clothes, you piece of trash!"
"Outsider, have you heard of Ryuo?"
"Whoa!! It's Boss Shichiro's Ryuo attack! That's an incredibly powerful attack!"
"That's right! The boss even smashed a house to pieces with that one sword strike!"
A sword shattered a house?
"Hehehe~~~"
Olga hid behind Chi and chuckled.
"These bumpkins have never seen anything like this before. They should know that Jhin's Flame Slash can cleave the ocean in two."
"Don't be ridiculous!!! No one can split the ocean open!"
Suzuki Juichiro roared and launched a second charge.
The blade in his hand gradually turned pitch black.
"Jiichiro Suzuki, come on!"
"Watch me shatter that despicable armor!"
"Ryuo? It's just flowing Armament Haki. I thought it was something new."
Jin sighed, and as the flames behind him surged, the gale surrounding his body also became violent.
Flames and gales transformed into fluids, swirling around his body and rising ever higher into the sky.
"A monster!!!"
"This guy is a monster! Look! He's human, yet he has wings!"
"And those enemies too, they're clearly human, but they have fish-like faces!"
At the very back, Little Eight raised his arm and shouted angrily, "We're not monsters! We're fish-men, you idiots!"
"The monster is talking!!!"
The samurai looked terrified, and their hands gripping their weapons began to tremble.
"Rising high in the winds, carrying the boundless flames of the earth's fury—"
In his fiery pupils, Suzuki Juichiro's left hand was reflected as he reached into his inner pocket and pulled out a pistol.
Bang--!!
The bullet spun and flew towards Suzuki Juichiro amidst his cunning and triumphant smile.
Hey~
The flattened bullet flew to one side.
Suzuki Juro's smile froze: "Impossible!!!"
Chi's wings spread out to their maximum extent, and he held a constantly spinning fan in his arms.
"Beat your wings!"
boom---!!
The flames transformed into thick lines that moved across the ground, quickly enveloping the entire banquet hall in a fiery barrier.
A red light flashed in Jinbe's eyes, and his expression changed slightly.
They quickly left the house, pulling their fishman companions and Olga along with them.
"The Claws of the Wind".
"Given the name of the Tengu!!"
A fierce wind rose from the ground, spiraling upwards toward the sky!
"Unleash a world-ending wave!!!"
The somber chanting echoed through the nearby alleys.
As the right arm holding the fan is raised high.
A massive fire tornado formed in the blink of an eye.
The screams were drowned out by the loud wind.
Chi's merciless eyes reflected the pitiful figures of the fire people running around.
The fire element within the fiery tornado quickly formed a fire dragon, which intertwined with the wind dragon created by the gale and rose into the sky.
"Guardian Angel - Twin Dragons' Ultimate Strike!"
The fire dragon and the wind dragon are integrated into one, with fire on the left and wind on the right.
He roared and charged toward the ground.
boom--!!!
When Jinbe and the others lowered their arms that were blocking their way, they discovered that the once bustling Rankage group's stronghold had vanished, leaving only some remnants of the outer buildings.
As for the center.
A pit nearly 100 meters deep appeared.
The pit walls exhibit a spiral pattern, which is composed of interwoven burn marks and cutting marks.
"Hey, Jin, aren't you going a bit too far?!"
Olga roared as she rode on the sea lizard:
"You idiot!!"
"Have you forgotten why we came here?!"
"If we kill Suzuki Juichiro, the entire underworld of Blade Port will be thrown into chaos!"
He was posing and showing off when he froze, realizing, "Yeah, he came here to subdue the underground forces of Blade Martial Port."
With wings flapping behind him, Yuqiang feigned composure.
"This is just a warning; Brother Bazel once said..."
"With a fearsome unknown powerhouse, things will go smoothly in the future."
"fart!"
Olga jumped to the ground and kicked hard at Jhin's shin.
"That stinky snake never said anything like that!"
"It's because of you that I got the fruit, and I did this on purpose to show off my power!"
"Don't think I can't guess what you're thinking!!"
"I know exactly whether you use your left or right hand to wipe your butt when you go to the toilet—uh uh uh!!"
He reached out and picked up Olga, covering the girl's mouth where the door wasn't locked. Jin's lips twitched.
"Let's go, let this matter simmer for a while before heading to our second target."
"And Olga, shut your mouth, or next time I'll let you experience what Brother Bazel was talking about—bungee jumping."
The night after Jin wiped out the Shadow Squad, just as Bladeport was gripped by fear.
Far away in the Flower Capital, outside the City of Light and Moon.
"Rambo, it's me."
Hanafza's voice came from the darkness.
"Have you found the target?"
Rambo leaped out of the bushes and quickly jumped onto Hanafza's shoulder.
"This is not the place to talk. The samurai patrol will be passing by in no more than three minutes."
"Climb over the wall, then turn right. You've awakened Observation Haki, right? The corridor after turning right is also a patrol area. Let's avoid them. I'll take you to the special dungeon where Kozuki Sukiyaki is imprisoned."
