Moreover, the Pirates take great pleasure in their pride but they like to stay alive. The shame of being caught by Marines will make them unable to hold their heads up forever, and they would rather die than beg for mercy but this is only reserved for the really strong Pirates!
Faced with people with overwhelming power and pride, it would be naive to capture them as the loss of soldiers in their fight would be enough to make Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) feel distressed. Like a fight between Marines and one of the Yonko! But it is different for normal pirates
Trane’s battle plan is based on this logic, and it is also one of the Marine’s common routines when facing large groups of enemies.
First, he ordered Rowen to disrupt the enemy’s defense line with his thunder coverage and lethality, and then they poured in from all directions to hack and kill the fugitives. In the end, only the strongest and the least courageous were left, which were very convenient to capture.
This plan can also be replicated on the sea, with a round of saturated artillery bombarding the enemy’s spirits, and then the Elite Officers led a team to attack the enemy’s main combatant, while the rest of the soldiers surround the rest of the enemy and finish them.
But… This is limited to normal Marine combat thinking.
A tough War Faction leader like Akainu would not allow anyone to escape alive and he would probably not capture anyone alive.
In the face of a large number of enemies, even if the soldiers will suffer heavy casualties, he will order the soldiers to flow upon the enemies like a tide to wipe out all the enemies, and never allow anyone to retreat.
…
“Don’t kill me! I surrender!”
“I surrender too, don’t kill me!”
With the threat of being “Killed”, the ordinary members of the Baroque Work were arrested and tied up one by one under the leadership of the soldiers. During this process, Das Bonez discovered that this was not a large Marine unit at all, but a small team consisting of only 30 members.
But with such a small team, after a surprise attack, the opponent has no casualties at all, which means that their combat capability is terrifying!
With such a powerful Marine squad, there is only one place where they could come from.
“Marine…Headquarters…”
Das Bonez is a seasoned warrior so he is calm even in this situation but he is unhappy. He is the second strongest fighter in the Baroque work Agency and he is also the most trusted subordinate of Crocodile.
He knew very well that his people weren’t powerless but they couldn’t do anything when faced with the Soldiers from the Marine Headquarters, the gap between them was too large!
It wasn’t that he had never thought of escaping in this situation but after he saw the guy dressed like the guard of Huadu West Island (Flower Capital), his attention was always upon him. Since then, the guy dressed like a guard instantly killed Mr.3 which prevented him from having the idea of running away.
That lightning attack is quite fast and terrifying!
Although the Rumble-Rumble Fruit had disappeared for hundreds of years, it still ranks first in the Logia Devil Fruit Illustrated Book!
And because of its presence, it is even more impossible for him to get away from here!
He knew the reason why Marine didn’t kill him and instead killed Mr.3. In addition to killing the normal crowd, the main reason they didn’t kill him is that his position here is clear at a glance. His arrest and following torture to get intelligence is the result that the Marines want.
And Marines have ways to get any and all intelligence out of him!
In that case, either he run away or… die in battle!
Cang!
With a scream, Das Bonez’s skin changed. The palm-wide skin quickly changed from flesh-colored to metal-specific material, and the edges of the skin were extremely sharp and daunting.
“Sure enough…You also a Devil Fruit Ability User…”
The change in Das Bonez appeared in front of Trane’s eyes, Trane frowned as he noticed Daz Bonez’s arms turning into blades.
If it wasn’t because of the high temperature and lethality of lightning that killed the Candle User, any other person here wouldn’t have been able to hurt him as it is not easy to hurt someone who is hiding behind a wall.
But this Black Men was able to order him around which means that this person is undoubtedly stronger than the Candle User. And this Devil Fruit ability looks quite familiar.
‘Where did I see it?’ Trane thought silently.
“Yes! I am a Blade Human who ate Supa-Supa No Mi(Dice-Dice Fruit), I can turn my body into the body of blades!” Das Bonez explained while adjusting his mentality to fight.
“You are a Swordsman, right? My Apologies… I have never been cut by a Swordsman!” Daz Bonez spoke as he strode towards Trane.
Atomic Spar- Particle Slash!!
Sii! Siii! Sii!
This is a High-Speed slash attack that uses two-handed blades as the key element to perform. It is called Particle Slash, which means to chop objects into tiny fragments, and the power behind this attack cannot be underestimated!
The overwhelming Fish Scale-like Blade Light swept down, and a single-person-high ruined stone slab was suddenly exposed with dense cracks, and then quietly cracked and decomposed into thumb-sized stones.
This attack was powerful. Das Bonez wanted to catch Trane by surprise and he made a quick decision!
At the same time, part of his attention was put on Rowen to prevent himself from being sneak attacked.
Dice-Dice Fruit can make the Ability User’s body become as hard as steel. Any attack done by a swordsman would do nothing to his body. It is also the root of his view of the Swordsmen… Only Rowen’s terrifying thunder attack would cause trouble for Das Bonez!
But……
Why… is he laughing?
Rowen didn’t plan to take any action, and he even muttered that he had no interest in paying attention to the confrontation here. When Das Bonez rushed towards Trane in a desperate attempt, Rowen turned around and walked towards the captives…
There were a few guys over there who were not very obedient, they were handcuffed but they were still swearing at the soldiers.
At this time, Trane’s flat, but angry voice rang in Das Bonez’s ear: “You are looking down on Swordsman’s too much… West Blue’s Bounty Hunter, Das Bonez!!”
“Nani?!!!”
Das Bonez turned his head in an instant, only to be greeted by a crescent-shaped Blade light that passed through his retina.
Then……
Ding…Boom!!!
In the next second, a great force came down, slashing at his hands that turned into blades, breaking the Atomic Spar-Particle Slash!
The opponent can break his Atomic Spar-Particle Slash but he is not worried.
In the past, there have been many people who had broken his attacks, but no Swordsman’s sword could cut the blade produced by his Devil Fruit Ability, let alone injure his body that was as hard as steel.
And he can take advantage of this opportunity to grab the opponent’s weapon in time, and stab his blade into the opponent’s heart with his backhand!
But he was actually surprised that the other party actually called out his name…
“Who are you?!”
“I was once a second lieutenant in the West Blue 296 branch, nothing more than an unknown person…” Trane sneered as the power behind his attack increased!
Sii!!
In an instant!
The terrifying Sword Intent and great strength are all poured into the blade and it was like a hot knife cutting through butter, and the blade cut off the arm without a pause! At the same time, the sword didn’t stop and slashed across his chest!
Das Bonez only felt cold in his arms and chest, and then he was enveloped by a tingling feeling of pain.
“What!!!”
Looking at Das Bonez who was screaming and wailing with his severed arm, the expressions on Trane’s face were very complicated: “Although I knew you were not my opponent, I still want to say, you really disappointed me, ‘Hitmen’!!!”
Bang!!
Trane kicked Das Bonez’s head and watched him roll over and fall into the big hole dugout in the middle of the camp. Trane was silent for a while and waved: “Put the Seastone cuffs on him and take him back!!”
“Uh…yes!!”
Facing the Senior Official who was in a very bad mood, the Soldiers looked at each other dumbfoundedly and ran over to arrest Daz Bonez.
In response, Rowen released his hand from the two groups of Humanoid looking Coke and shook his head as the group of captives watched him as if they were looking at a wicked demon.
“So, is this the source of the scars on your chest?”
Trane was born in West Blue and he was originally an ordinary Soldier. He was seriously injured and almost died in a mission. Then he was rescued by Garp who was passing by that area and he followed him all the way to the Grand Line.
Trane has a scar on his chest from his shoulder blade to his abdomen like Zoro. It is said that he had been cut by someone in a fight but he does not regard it as glory but see it as a shame!
He dresses neatly all day and does not even take off his white shirt for exercise to cover up the scar… But Rowen has never known who the culprit was.
But now he knows…
“I’m afraid Das Bonez would not have thought that the normal Soldier who was almost killed by him had grown to this point…Hate is indeed the greatest source of progress.”
The Quick killer Das Bonez prided himself on his Steel like defense, and he rarely meets opponents in Grand Line and West Blue who could oppose him, so he got tired of his training and stopped.
But in reality, that is just the normal defense level which is the same as that of a Marine Elite who had learned Tekkai (Iron Body). At most, it has the advantages of mobility, quick launch, and low stamina consumption. What qualifications does Das Bonez have to look down on the Swordsmen of the world?
One must know that although Trane only has a General title, he is Garp’s Adjutant!
He has carried out several missions in the New World for more than ten years!
Even a strong man who had learned Armament Haki wouldn’t dare to take his sword attack.
The root of Das Bonez’s pride was ignorance or his definition of “Powerful” was not very clear, he was the same as Rowen before he got to know what true power was.
