Bang!!

With a sound, Titch could not think too much. Kuro punched him directly in the abdomen, making him retch and his body hunch away.

At the moment the fist hit, six ribbons emerged from Kuro’s body. The ribbons directly tore open the bite of the black snake and hit all of them towards Tiki.

Chi chi chi!!

The absolute lethality of the ribbon directly broke the opening of the black beard and mixed with the vibrating black gas.

BOOM!!!

Tich’s body shook violently, causing the surrounding earth to crack again. Kuro felt that his body was unstable, and the ground under his feet had cracked into several pieces, and even seawater appeared from the cracks.

Frowning, he turned around and kicked Tiki, sending it flying far away. At the same time, his body flew into the air.

The ground they were on shattered inch by inch, and in the end, it was divided into small pieces. The pieces turned into powder, and seawater surged out from it. The powder fell into the seawater, turning the center of the square into a seawater lake.

The destructive power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and the devouring power of the Dark-Dark Fruit completely turned the surroundings into ashes.

Seeing this scene, Kuro’s eyes became more serious.

The power of this move is not small. It is basically caused by the ‘black snake’. If it weren’t for the fact that he had blocked the bite of the black snake with the Lifeless Space Strike, it would have been more serious.

Even so …

He glanced at himself. There were also some gaps in the place where he was bitten. They belonged to his body, but at this moment, under the high-speed recovery of his powerful physique, they were gradually repaired.

“Fortunately, I developed the Black Tortoise Profound Meaning to consolidate my physique again. Otherwise, I’m afraid it would be bad…” Kuro thought.

He was not just an ability user. He knew swordsmanship and profound meaning.

Among the four profound mysteries, the “Overlord Body Black Tortoise Body” that he developed back then will not strengthen his physique, but only solidify his defense. Every time he is beaten, he has to breathe, but the consolidation effect will not disappear.

Tiki’s contact with him would make his ability ineffective, but his physical fitness was solidified under the influence of the four profound mysteries. This was one of the reasons why Kuro was fearless.

Although it consumes a lot of stamina…

However, compared to the disappearance of his shortcomings, this stamina is worth it.

How could he use this shortcoming to attack others? When he understood the use of the knife, he was already developing how to avoid such accidents.

After all, be it Seastone, seawater, or Tiki’s ability, there are many things in the sea that can deal with metahumans.

But if he can consolidate his physical fitness, even if he doesn’t use his ability, his physical fitness is at the top of the sea when integrated with the knife. Compared to Titch, his physical fitness is a nightmare in close combat.

With that thought in mind, Kuro looked up at Tiki in the distance.

Tiki’s current situation is much worse than Kuro’s.

Titch, who was kicked by him, was now lying on his back on the ground. There were several big depressions on his body covered in black smoke. There was no blood on his body, but there was a big pool of blood on the ground.

Almost …

If Titch defended later, the characteristics of the Dark-Dark Fruit alone would not be able to resist his moves.

Then …

Sizzle!

Kuro’s body exploded with lightning, making the sky dull again.

“Hot breath!”

He opened his mouth and spat out a ball of hot breath at Tiki, who was lying there. Immediately after, the sky exploded with muffled thunder. As the hot breath was spat out, a large amount of thunder also hit in that direction.

When dealing with such people, if you have a chance, fight until you die!

However, when Thermal Breath and Thunder were about to reach Tiki, the black snakes around him crawled up. The black snakes formed a flower pattern and circled around Tiki itself. The snake head extended out and bit the thunder and fire energy.

“This guy…”

Kuro narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “Are you going to be a coward, Tiki!”

There was a pause in the ‘flower’ for a while, and then Titch’s panting laughter sounded, “Thief, hahahaha…”

He poked his head out and revealed a mouthful of missing teeth. “Almost, you almost killed me. It’s really scary. That kind of strange ribbon with lethality… But I won’t be fooled again. I just have to be careful. I will stop that kind of ribbon and I won’t give you another chance!”

He reached out and pointed at Kuro and said ferociously, “Kuro! I’m going to kill you completely! Take your ability!!”

“Pirates… They are the first to boast.”

Kuro shook his fingers. “When I peel your skin off, you won’t say such stupid things!”

“Come at me if you can, thief hahaha!” Tiki laughed.

Although he said that, neither of them moved.

The opportunity had been missed.

With Tiki’s current posture, he really can’t break through the Black Snake. If he wants to break through by force, I’m afraid he will have to pay a great price and he may fail.

As for Titch, he could not find trouble with him.

In terms of combat, he is not his opponent. Kuro has already confirmed this, but if he can’t be killed, then it’s useless to fight.

At their level, if there are no flaws, the outcome will not be decided for a while.

But let go…

We can’t let him go now!

No matter what, he had to finish this battle in one go!

“Hahahaha…”

Tich stared at Kuro for a while and suddenly let out a chuckle. “You can’t beat me, Kuro. I still have ‘helper’. You are gone.”

These words made Kuro narrow his eyes and subconsciously look at the location of the Straw Hat Pirates.

The Straw Hat Gang is surrounding Luffy, and that reindeer seems to be treating him?

Wait for Straw Hat to wake up?

Now that the battlefield is in a stalemate, the only breakthrough point is that kid.

Once he wakes up… Based on the purpose of rescuing Akagami (Red Hair), he will definitely come to deal with me, because Kuro will not let Akagami (Red Hair) go. His strategic goal is to kill all the pirates who come here.

But in that case, Straw Hat will definitely fight him again, and then with Tiki…

“Sa, you guessed it, didn’t you!”

Titch smiled confidently. “You don’t have a chance. Your last strength is suppressing pirates in Impel Down. I spent a lot of effort to make a big fuss in Impel Down for this, unless you want to lose face in front of the whole world!”

“You’ve already boasted, and now it’s live. I don’t even need to win, I just need to leave here with Straw Hat and Marine’s prestige will plummet and the New World will change again.”

“One Piece can be found slowly. I’m not even interested. I just need to break the current situation. At that time, my era will still come! Hahaha, hahahahaha!!”

This is Tiki’s plan. Yes, he doesn’t need to win. His purpose here is more to sweep away Kurowai’s trust. When the time comes, the whole world will know that pirates are unstoppable. If even Kurow, who is now so famous, can’t do anything to them, then the world will know how powerful pirates are.

At that time, the situation of the world will return to that chaotic state. He, Marshall D. Titch, can complete his ambition at that time and become the real Pirate King who rules the sea!
