Nami and the others were utterly shocked to see Luffy taken down so easily.
Had their strength weakened so much?
They barely even fought before collapsing.
Were these enemies really that strong?
Just as they were worrying, they suddenly noticed that the enemies were now charging toward Vir.
Seeing this, they all let out a sigh of relief.
Oh, they’re going after Vir?
Then it’s fine. You guys, do your best.
The leader of the group, however, seemed to sense that Vir was not someone to be trifled with.
Without hesitation, he pulled out a massive cannon from his back and fired directly at Vir.
The cannonball was highly destructive.
If it so much as touched him, things would go south fast.
The cannonball led the attack, followed closely by three spear-wielding warriors.
As the cannonball approached, Vir simply lifted his foot and kicked it.
Seeing this, the three warriors’ faces lit up with excitement.
This type of cannonball explodes on contact.
This guy was dead for sure!
Just another ignorant Blue Sea dweller!
But the expected explosion never happened. Instead, the dark cannonball seemed to turn even blacker.
Vir wasn’t blown away. Instead, the cannonball had been kicked far off into the distance.
The three warriors couldn’t comprehend what had just happened.
But they had no time to think. They launched their attack, thrusting their spears at Vir in perfect synchronization.
Yet, in that moment—
Vir suddenly disappeared.
Before they could even react, each of them felt a powerful kick land squarely on their stomachs.
One of them, held by the neck, didn’t get sent flying.
The other two weren’t so lucky.
One was blasted hundreds of meters away, plunging straight into the White-White Sea below.
The other, a female warrior with impressive “pectoral muscles”, crashed hard into the ship’s railing.
Surprisingly, the railing did not break. Instead, it momentarily transformed into solid steel at the moment of impact.
The one in Vir’s grip still tried to struggle.
But before he could put up much of a fight, Vir lifted him and smashed him headfirst into the iron deck below.
Instantly, the man stopped resisting, coughing up a mouthful of blood.
The injuries were just severe enough to keep him from getting up anytime soon.
Seeing this, the female warrior grew visibly anxious.
They had seriously kicked a steel plate this time.
This guy was unstoppable!
They had to retreat immediately.
But she wasn’t about to abandon her comrades. Instead, she charged at Vir again.
Vir attempted to restrain her by manipulating the wooden planks of the Going Merry, but it didn’t go as planned.
With agile footwork, she effortlessly slipped past and appeared right in front of him.
Her pale right hand lifted slightly, revealing a strange shell in her palm.
And then—
“Impact!!”
A powerful Impact Dial released a devastating shockwave.
The blast struck Vir directly in the face.
Even Usopp and Nami, standing behind him, were sent flying, crashing into the wooden planks behind them.
The attack was fearsome.
Everyone anxiously turned to look at Vir.
Meanwhile, after delivering the blow, the woman quickly grabbed her fallen comrade and attempted to retreat.
But just as she was about to leave—
A foot suddenly appeared in front of her chest.
Then—
Boom!
A tremendous impact sent her hurtling backward, crashing into the same steel railing as before.
This time, even the reinforced steel couldn’t hold up, bending significantly from the force.
She coughed up a mouthful of blood and could no longer stand.
Kneeling on one knee, she looked up at Vir in shock.
He had taken a direct hit from her Impact Dial—
Yet he didn’t even have a scratch on his face.
How was this possible?!
And just like that, in under two minutes, one was missing, and two were heavily injured and captured.
Raki couldn’t accept this reality.
How could someone from the Blue Sea be this powerful?
She and Kamakiri were among the strongest warriors in their tribe!
Only Wiper was stronger than them.
Yet, neither of them had lasted even two moves against this man?
Just who the hell was he?!
As Vir approached her, he first grabbed the bent railing. With a simple motion, it returned to its original shape.
Then, he casually reached out and pulled off her mask.
Sure enough, beneath it was a woman’s face.
Her long hair cascaded down freely.
This woman seemed to be called Raki.
At that moment, she glared at Vir with an intense, defiant expression.
A look that said she would rather die than surrender.
Vir couldn’t help but laugh.
You guys came looking for trouble, lost miserably, and now you’re giving me that look?
How unsporting.
And you call yourselves bandits?
What a disgrace to real outlaws.
Raki turned her face away, clearly determined not to acknowledge Vir.
But he paid her no mind.
Instead, he walked over to the man called Kamakiri, pulling out his medical kit.
One minute later, screams filled the air.
Ten minutes later, the screams finally stopped.
[ Ding! Congratulations, host, you have gained 200 negative points. ]
[ Ding! Congratulations, host, you have acquired the ability: Dial Mastery! ]
After finishing his treatment, Vir calmly put away his tools.
But Raki’s gaze toward him had changed entirely.
This guy… he was a demon!
Then, she suddenly remembered her own injuries.
Her heart skipped a beat.
Her face turned pale as a sheet, and sheer terror filled her eyes.
She glanced at Kamakiri, who now looked utterly lifeless.
Her fear deepened.
Vir, having packed up his kit, was now walking toward her.
Instantly, Raki tensed up.
Watching him approach, expressionless yet with a slight smirk playing on his lips—
She panicked.
“No! Stay away from me! What do you want?! I’m not sick! I don’t need treatment! Stay back! I’m perfectly fine! I’m healthy!!”
She shouted as she backed away.
But behind her was the railing.
Where else could she go?
Vir’s grin widened as he walked closer.
But in Raki’s eyes, this was the most terrifying sight imaginable.
Finally, she broke.
“Just tell me what you want! I’ll agree to anything! Just stop, okay?! Please!!”
Vir was a bit puzzled by her reaction.
Why is she so scared?
I just gave that guy a new neck.
Well, not exactly a neck, but something similar.
Why is she so frightened?
She’s really too timid.
Even the veteran crew members, long accustomed to Vir’s bizarre ways, were once again left speechless.
Just moments ago, that guy’s head had been detached.
Vir was getting more and more… insane.
Robin, in particular, had turned pale.
This ship’s doctor…
Was even scarier than she had imagined.
