Journey to One Piece

48. Easy

There were two ship guards which were under the rank of Jango. They were notorious in the sea and were known as Nyaban brothers. Those two were Sham and Buchi. Combined they had a bounty of 7 million bellies and they both fought with clawed gloves. The claws weren't as long as the blades of Kuro but they were sharp nonetheless.

As Zoro was approaching the ship slowly, the Nyaban Brothers came forward and smiled at Zoro.

"Are you lost, my friend? Don't you see that there is a pirate flag fluttering over the mast of the ship?" The two brothers after being notified came forward to confront this nobody who had just appeared out of nowhere.

"Your Captain Kuro has already been taken down by our captain so I should just advise you to leave and never come back." Zoro said as he had already seen how Kuro was lying on the ground like a dead dog with his spatial awareness. Hearing this, the two brothers had a change of face.

Only the close crew members knew that Captain Kuro was hiding on this island and they came here to raid this place. This new person saying that their captain was taken down meant their identity had been exposed. But after thinking about it, they laughed.

"What a good joke!! Our Captain is so powerful and a random guy like you is saying that he has been taken down. What a lie!!" saying that Sham jumped at Zoro and used his claws to place a punch on Zoro.

Seeing that, Zoro had used his sword to stop the attack. Buchi too didn't fall back and came to the side of Zoro to place an elbow punch at Zoro. Zoro, seeing no other choice, had to use his other hand and take out another sword to stop Buchi. Two swords, two strikes evaded.

"Oh!! It seems you both have quite the strength." Zoro said as he jumped high in the air and breathed a mouthful of air

'Second Fang : Slice'

This move of Zoro unleashed a double slash that flew out and hit the two brothers in an X-shaped form. The two brothers seeing the sudden move had to use their touch hands which were covered with gloves to defend themselves, but even then they were struck by the slices and their clothes were torn apart.

The two brothers had quite a bit of strength so this simple slice of Zoro wasn't enough to bring them down and Zoro himself didn't use full power. These moves were made to kill demons and these people didn't have the strong body of the demons.

Seeing the torn clothes and specks of blood flowing out of their bodies, they became gloomy. This man who had appeared out of nowhere claiming that their captain was taken down wasn't simple at all.

"Who are you?"

"Roronoa Zoro!!"

"Zoro... Zoro... You are the Pirate Hunter Zoro... You... You took down our Captain?" The brothers were now trembling in fear. They have heard about this pirate hunter for a long time in the sea and now they understand why this person so easily handled them in one move.

"Stop with that label. I am no more a Pirate Hunter. I have joined a pirate crew and our Captain had just taken care of your Captain who had been hiding in that mansion." Zoro said as he placed the two swords back at his sheath. By this time all the crew members were already standing behind the brothers.

"This is impossible. The Captain is the strongest. Nobody can defeat him." One of the crew members shouted.

"Tell that to the 4 eyed man who is lying face down in the forest."

"Guys. He is just one guy. We take him down and go for the Captain. There is no way the Captain would go down easily. He is obviously lying."

"Yes!!

"Let's go!! Kill the Pirate Hunter.. We will be famous in the sea. Hahah."

Zoro who looked at this sighed. He was trying to help these guys leave and escape the pain. He had almost killed Jango with one move and now he would have to resort to violence. Zoro touched the hilt of the red sword and said

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

"You dare look down on us brothers?"

"We will kill you."

Sigh.. Zoro breathed out a puff of air from his lungs as lightning coursed through his body.

'Third Form : Thunder Swarm'

And then he unleashed a number of slices in the air that looked like lightning arches and surrounded everyone from all directions. This horrified the people as they didn't expect the Pirate Hunter to control lightning.

"Escape.. Run... He is a demon..."

"Mummy..."

But they couldn't run far as the lightning arches had surrounded them from all directions and soon they were electrocuted. None of the crew members nor the famous brothers were able to escape. Every single one was hit by the lightning.

"I can't use the slashes continuously. This form was made to fight a single person. Using this on multiple people really puts a stress on my body. I have to improve more and make my body stronger." Zoro looked over his drawbacks and shook his head. Seeing the half dead people lying on the beach he sighed and left for the mansion.

Ken, who was in the restaurant, smiled as he felt that many members' breath stopped.By now with his lightning control he could almost hear the people talk from far with the help of Observation Haki. Zoro had taken down the enemies and so did Luffy who had sent Kaya back to her home. Usopp hearing that Kaya had returned was jumping in joy.

He was grateful that Luffy and his friends helped him. He couldn't imagine the horror Kuro might have brought to Kaya and people present in the village. Luffy had saved all of them and nobody knew of it. He wanted to go and shout about it but since he was a liar nobody would trust him.
