"Void Rending Claw!"
Leopard Girl swiftly swung her claws, unleashing a massive, razor-sharp gust capable of tearing through the air, delivering a heavy blow to the enemies ahead.
The space along its path continuously trembled, even leaving faint vacuum trails in its wake, showcasing its extreme cutting power.
Boom~
Ssshh~
Wherever the claw strike passed, whether human or tree, everything was cleanly severed in two.
Thud~
Several seconds later, the severed bodies slowly split apart and fell to the ground.
"Not bad, this move is extremely effective."
At the same time Tiger Girl and the others were fighting, on the other side of the island, another elite squad was also engaged in fierce combat.
Leopard Girl looked quite satisfied, seeing her single strike take out over a dozen pirates.
By now, she was already coated in a thick layer of blood, almost forming a crusted armor.
This was enough to show just how intense her previous battles had been.
For Leopard Girl, the island's battles were relaxing, comfortable.
This feeling of ease, like a dragon returning to the sea, gave her a glimmer of hope for further progress in the midst of combat.
Similar to Tiger Girl, she had sensed that threshold.
Although it was still far away, at least there was something to look forward to.
After pausing briefly to catch her breath, Leopard Girl didn't linger and launched another attack.
"Sharp Claw · Rondo!"
Her body spun at high speed, releasing circular slashing attacks; no one survived where they passed.
The forest on the western side of the island faced devastating destruction under her onslaught.
"Shadow Blink!"
Noticing the pirates showing signs of fleeing, Leopard Girl utilized her speed to quickly close in, relentlessly pursuing them.
With their captain exerting such effort, the two squad members naturally didn't dare slack off in the slightest.
"Wow, Sister Xuan is really strong."
"I can't hold them back. This is my debut; I need to perform well."
From behind, the equally blood-soaked Cat Girl watched Leopard Girl cutting down enemies like grass, feeling quite envious.
Both possessed Cat-type Devil Fruits, and both were Common Types.
Yet the gap between a leopard and a cat was ultimately too vast.
But she wasn't discouraged. After all, Cat Girl held the rank of Rear Admiral; in battles like these, she was by no means weak.
"Cat Steps · Dazzling!"
An unpredictable Z-shaped movement pattern appeared, leaving afterimages in its wake.
Cat Girl, stepping with an alluring, feline grace, appeared behind one pirate after another.
"Sharp Claw · Shadow Stitch!"
Extreme speed propelled her into a piercing claw strike, filled with the power to shatter stone and sever metal.
This claw strike specifically targeted the pirates' lower bodies and vulnerable joints.
Its purpose was to stitch the enemies' shadows to the ground as if sewing, rendering them completely unable to move normally.
Boom~
"Ah, my leg, my leg!"
"My brother, my brother!"
...
After the claw strike, pirates lay collapsed everywhere, all clutching their lower halves and wailing in agony.
Huh? Something strange seems to have slipped in there.
"Hehe, my strength isn't lacking at all, meow."
Cat Girl stopped, quite satisfied with the devastation she had caused.
Looking up, however, she found herself surrounded by a group of lecherous pirates.
"Mimi, it's Mimi!"
"Little girl, come right into big brother's arms."
"I'll treat you well later, let me be the first one."
...
Amidst the vulgar remarks, dozens of pirates launched a coordinated assault, determined to capture the petite Cat Girl and thoroughly violate her.
The gruesome deaths of their fellow pirates earlier had failed to extinguish their lustful desires.
It could only be said that they had been sexually repressed for far too long.
"Dammit."
After scanning her surroundings and finding no clear path to break through, a look of resolve flashed across Cat Girl's face.
Just as she was about to use the rice ball her master had given her for emergencies, her teammate Bat Girl stepped in.
"Mi, don't be afraid, watch this."
"Chaos Sonic Burst!"
Bat Girl, hovering mid-air, had keenly detected the situation here.
She called out loudly to reassure Cat Girl.
In Fu's heart, the newly-born Cat Girl was like a little sister.
As the big sister, she naturally had to take good care of her younger sibling.
Yes, big sister Fu, hehe.
After this brief reverie, Bat Girl swiftly acted, unleashing a concentrated sonic shockwave she had prepared in advance from her mouth.
The sonic wave spread in a fan-shaped pattern, engulfing all the pirates surrounding Cat Girl.
Immediately, the pirates fell into brief dizziness and tinnitus, completely unable to maintain their offensive.
Clatter~
Clatter~
Their weapons slipped from their grasp, clattering to the ground.
"Perfect opportunity!"
"Kitty · Frantic Scratch!"
Seizing the moment, Cat Girl swiftly attacked, her hands scratching wildly like a cat playing with a ball of yarn.
Though seemingly chaotic, the attacks unleashed a barrage of claw strikes.
These claw strikes effortlessly eliminated all the dazed pirates, leaving none behind.
"Thanks, Sister Fu."
After dealing with the enemies, Cat Girl expressed her gratitude to Bat Girl above.
"No need to thank me. Fu must care for her little sister."
"Then let's keep going, Sister Fu."
"Alright, leave the skies to me.The three—Leopard Girl and her companions—coordinated with seamless harmony, their speed was completely on par with Tiger Girl's side.
Both teams nearly simultaneously concluded their respective battles.
Naturally, they also encountered the same enemy at the same time.
"Hmph, the subordinates of the Beasts actually dare to run amok like this."
"Today, I, A Dong, Deputy Pillar of the Eight Treasures Water Army, shall end your lives."
"What a joke, only showing up now? You're nothing but a bunch of turtles hiding in their shells."
"What Eight Treasures Water Army? Mere jumping clowns."
"Arrogant women, I hope you can still talk so tough later."
Hearing them not only insult him but also his Eight Treasures Water Army,
A Dong grew furious, immediately entering a combat stance, ready to strike at any moment.
To A Dong, insulting him was tolerable, but insulting the Eight Treasures Water Army was absolutely unacceptable.
They were the renowned and feared overlords of the New World—the Chinjao Pirates.
Among the numerous pirate crews in the New World, where the strong are like clouds, their Chinjao Pirates still held a significant position.
The Chinjao Pirates were primarily composed of the Eight Treasures Water Army, with most members bound by blood ties.
The cohesion and combat power they could muster were famous throughout the New World.
Especially their formidable Eight Impact Fist, which commanded great respect in the New World.
In particular, Chinjao, the current leader of the Eight Treasures Water Army, was a man possessing the qualities of a king.
With Conqueror's Haki at his command and mastery of the Eight Impact Fist, Chinjao could be considered a notable figure even in the New World teeming with powerful individuals.
Of course, even such a Chinjao Pirates stood absolutely no chance against the Rocks Pirates—the gap was far too vast.
This raised the question.
The Chinjao Pirates had truly gone mad this time.
Taking advantage of the chaos in the New World, they chose to strike at the forces under the Rocks Pirates' command.
They destroyed the Atlun Black Market, plundered all its treasures, and slaughtered nearly everyone there.
By conventional logic, the Chinjao Pirates should have fled with their tails between their legs immediately after completing their raid.
Yet several days had passed—why hadn't they escaped? Instead, they stubbornly remained on the island.
The answer lay in what Chinjao discovered in the backrooms after destroying the black market: an item.
Or rather, it couldn't be fully described as mere merchandise—it was an exceptionally rare treasure in this world!
A treasure that would significantly impact the original storyline.
Even Brian, the transmigrator, would be utterly astonished upon seeing it.
Now, the mystery was about to be unveiled.
And the course of the world would once again shift thereafter!
