In One Piece With The Barrier Fruit

Chapter 617: The Top Four Are Revealed



Facing Akainu's deliberate killing blow, Garp could only turn his head to avoid being hit by the magma punch, and also frantically focus his armament haki to defend his face.

But as the fist of magma passed by, Garp's ear disappeared under the fist of magma, even if it was protected by Armament Haki, and even his hair and scalp were burnt.

"Old man, die!"

Akainu failed to blow off Garp's head, but the subsequent magma shoulder also hit him, knocking the old Marine hard into the barrier space.

Under the high temperature of the magma, white smoke erupted from Garp's body. His current armament haki was no longer enough to continuously resist this terrifying magma.

Luffy and Sabo were frantically attacking the barrier, desperately wanting to help their grandfather.

"Hoho, old man, I'm going to kill the Straw Hat brat's most important person again in front of his eyes."

Akainu looked at the two brats outside the barrier who were smashing the barrier crazily, and smiled darkly at Garp.

"Luffy..., Sabo..."

Garp was still doing his best to resist Akainu's high-temperature magma, but he is too old, and his haki's recovery speed is far slower than when he was young.

Now I can only watch as Akainu burns him to death bit by bit.

On the floating island.

Dragon, Kuzan, and Sengoku were begging Basire to end the fight immediately.

But Basire was still observing the changes of Straw Hat Luffy. Wondering why this guy has no tendency to awaken his Sun God Nika fruit.

It seems that Luffy's development and understanding are not enough, or he was not killed and did not understand the power of the drum at all.

Perhaps the form of Sun God Nika has the same ability as the Revive Fruit, and the user needs to be killed once to trigger it.

Just when Akainu gave Garp another fatal punch, a protective barrier stretched out inside the barrier space at a high speed, blocking the fatal blow for the seriously injured Garp.

And Basire's majestic voice also came from the sky.

"Akainu, win!!"

Hearing this voice, Akainu could only grimace, reluctantly let go of Garp, and turn around to leave coldly.

At this time, the solid barrier space also faded, allowing him to walk away, and letting Luffy and Sabo go in to rescue Garp.

"Bastard! Go to hell!!"

But he never expected that the reckless Luffy would directly attack Akainu who was leaving.

Akainu raised the corner of his mouth, as if he was already waiting for Luffy, and his fists instantly became hot, waiting for the Straw Hat kid to come over, so that he could kill him directly.

However, the next moment, a green light wind blade and red light sword energy rushed towards Luffy at high speed to stop his stupid behavior.

Thanks to their observation haki that could foresee a few seconds into the future, Dragon and Shanks took action immediately.

If Akainu is really hit by Luffy, then the nature of everything will change and he will have an excuse to kill him.

The consequences are unimaginable!

However, there was an attack that was faster than the wind blade and sword energy. As space cracks appeared, Luffy vomited blood and flew backwards. Countless bloody marks appeared on his body, and blood splattered.

"Irrelevant personnel, please stand down!"

Basire's voice filled with conqueror's haki came from high in the sky again, scaring countless people into silence.

The high-temperature magma in Akainu's hands also cooled down, and he could only sigh in disappointment, and then continue to leave the ring.

Sabo rushed towards Luffy anxiously, with a distressed and angry expression on his face. How dare this idiot mess around in this place? Now the top figures in the world are watching the fight.

If Basire is offended, then Luffy, who refuses to drop his pirate title, will really not be able to leave Laugh Tale, even if Dragon and the others protect him.

"I'm sorry, Emperor Basire. I am eager to save my son, and I am willing to accept the punishment in his place."

Dragon immediately apologized to Basire, and was willing to bear all the punishment for Luffy. For his stupid son and reckless father, Dragon was willing to even give his life, and he knew that he probably couldn't even keep his position as a permanent representative after this.

At the same time, he also has a clearer understanding of Basire's strength. Whether it is his devil fruit abilities or observation haki, he is much stronger than him and Shanks.

Basire probably saw the future a few seconds longer than they did, and had already noticed some of Luffy's actions.

"I don't want Straw Hat to remain a pirate."

Basire said lightly. This was the last bit of help given to Dragon, and he hoped they would not discredit the new World Government again.

"Clear!"

Dragon sighed in his heart and immediately replied that after this time, if this stupid son does not take down the pirate flag, he will forcibly dismantle the Straw Hat Pirates.

At worst, let Kuma send the Straw Hat Pirates crew members all over the world, so that they can enjoy the feeling of parting again.

After Sabo dragged away Luffy, who was injured twice, the farce ended, and Garp had also been taken away for treatment by Marine doctors.

Under the announcement of the host Ann, the subsequent competition continued.

Basire was not interested in other regular fights, so he did not pay attention to most of them.

After three days of continuous elimination and screening, before they knew it, the top eight had emerged.

Sabo, Zoro, Yamato, Katakuri, and Crocodile all advanced to the quarterfinals, fighting on the same stage as Akainu, Shanks, and Bullet.

Now Basire wanted to see Sabo and Sakazuki fight, so he arranged the fight and they had a terrifying battle.

But in the end, Sabo's Fire God Vulcan form couldn't defeat Akainu's Magma Fruit ability that had been trained to a terrifying degree, and he was seriously injured and lost.

Zoro also excitedly met Shanks who also used a sword, and the two had a swordsmen duel.

Although Zoro lost in the end, he also learned a lot, and his confidence in becoming the world's greatest swordsman became stronger and stronger.

Crocodile was also very unlucky to meet his old rival Bullet, but this time he did not manage to tie.

Bullet quickly defeated Crocodile, who claimed to be his equal, and advanced to the semi-finals.

One of the most entertaining battles was the battle between Yamato and Katakuri. Both are descendants of the Yonkō, users of conqueror's haki, and both have learned conqueror's infusion.

One is a mythical zoan user, and the other is the user of a special paramecia fruit.

Their battle lasted for eight days and eight nights before the winner was determined. In the end, Katakuri's willpower was stronger and he defeated Yamato and secured his position in the top four.

The top four with both strength and luck were finally revealed. Akainu, Shanks, Bullet and Katakuri.

Basire also extended his shady hand again and directly arranged the opponents, just to enjoy a wonderful show.
