Capítulo 45: Chapter 45
Within a moment, Preta Path Pain rushed to Mihawk's front and extended his hand, condensing a black rod that stabbed directly at Mihawk's forehead.
"Swish!"
Fearless, Mihawk wielded his black blade, Yoru, sung a casual slash.
"Swish!!"
"Clang!!"
An ear-piercing buzzing sound erupted as the emerald blade aura pressed towards Preta Path Pain.
Strangely enough, just as the blade aura was about to strike Preta Path Pain, he suddenly twisted his body, narrowly evading Mihawk's attack in a way that seemed impossible for an ordinary person.
"He dodged?!" Even Mihawk couldn't help but feel a sense of astonishment.
However, Preta Path Pain didn't give Mihawk a chance to recover. With a swift turn, he once again thrust the black rod towards Mihawk!
"Swish!"
Mihawk, instead of defending, launched a counterattack, using his offense as his defense, and swung his long sword at Preta Path Pain.
"Clang!"
The jet-black long sword carried a chilling gleam, and each swing contained a sharp and terrifying aura!
Thus, the intense battle between the two unfolded on that small wooden ship!
"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang..."
The crisp sound of iron clashes echoed continuously.
Both of them moved and acted with great speed. Each clash between the long sword and the black rod produced sparkling sparks!
However, this fierce battle didn't last long before Preta Path Pain began to fall behind.
This worried the Bonney pirates on the ship who couldn't make sense of the situation.
Bonney, feeling urgent, turned to Inouk and said, "Quick! Go up and help! That person won't be able to hold on much longer!"
However, this time, Inouk ignored Bonney and focused on observing the situation.
Beside Inouk, the Six Paths of Pain on the ship—Deva Path, Animal Path, and Naraka Path—were also carefully observing the fight.
Their purple Rinnegan eyes with concentric black circles revolved slightly, capturing every movement and detail of the two combatants.
At this moment, after nearly a minute of intense battle between Preta Path Pain and Mihawk, the Human Path and Asura Path, located above the sea surface, finally took action.
Asura Path Pain took a step forward, crossing his hands and kneeling on one knee.
Immediately, Human Path Pain leaped up and stepped on Ashura Path.
There was no verbal communication between them, but their actions were perfectly coordinated.
Without any signal, both of them exerted force at the same time. Ashura Path Pain forcefully threw Human Path Pain towards Mihawk.
"Whoosh!"
The sound of breaking through the air reverberated as Human Path Pain's figure arrived in an instant, launching a powerful kick towards Mihawk.
Facing the sudden attack from Human Path, Mihawk remained calm, maintaining his rhythm.
Swiftly, he placed his long sword horizontally in front of his chest.
"Boom!"
"Thud!!"
The fierce kick produced a loud thunderous sound.
Mihawk and the ship slid several meters away.
Without giving him much time to catch his breath, Preta Path Pain and Asura Path Pain both charged at Mihawk from two sides.
Gripping his own right hand, Asura Path Pain twisted and pulled it.
"Swish~"
His right hand was directly pulled out, revealing a dozen missiles.
Immediately, a series of ignition sounds were heard, and the dozen missiles flew towards Mihawk from all directions!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!"
"What is this?!" Mihawk was somewhat shocked. Having sailed on the sea for so long and seen so many people, it was the first time he encountered someone who could hide missiles in their arms and release them when needed!
But he didn't have time to hesitate or be surprised.
Holding the black blade "Yoru" tightly in his hand, Mihawk swiftly swung it several times.
"Swish swish swish!!"
Several emerald, green sword auras flew out, slashing towards the incoming projectiles.
"Thud!!"
"Boom boom boom!!"
Resounding explosions echoed over the sea surface, and thick black smoke lingered in the air, refusing to dissipate!
At the same moment, the figure of Human Path Pain broke through the black smoke, wielding a black rod and launching a sudden assault on Mihawk.
Coordinating with Human Path Pain's assault was Preta Path Pain, rushing from the other side!
"Buzz!!"
"Whoosh!!"
At the same time, on the deck of the Eternal Gale, observing the prolonged battle between the three Paths of Pain and the world-renowned swordsman Mihawk, which had been going back and forth for such a long time, Bonney couldn't hide her astonishment on her face and spoke in a soft voice.
"So powerful... Can they really hold out against Mihawk for such a long time?!"
However, as soon as Bonney finished speaking, Demiurge beside her looked at Deva Path Pain and spoke slowly.
"This is taking longer than expected, Nagato."
Bonney was slightly startled and subconsciously turned her head in the direction Demiurge was looking.
On the other side, wearing a black long coat and sporting short orange hair, Deva Path Pain stood at the ship's edge, observing the battlefield on the sea surface.
After hearing Demiurge' words, Deva Path Pain slowly turned his head and responded.
"I know, but it's time for me to retreat."
Demiurge furrowed his brow.
"Retreat? Why? What are you talking about?"
Deva Path Pain remained calm, his voice steady.
"Because it's the captain's order. He has arrived."
"Creak~"
As if responding to Deva Path Pain's words, at the moment his voice fell, the wooden door of the cabin slowly opened.
With "Eclipse" hanging from his waist, Carnes walked out slowly from behind the door.
He already knew who the newcomer was.
It was precisely because he knew who it was that Carnes had instructed Nagato to retreat while he was still in the cabin.
Due to his long-standing injuries, Carnes couldn't engage in combat and had not encountered a truly worthy opponent since setting sail. He had started to feel rusty in battle!
Now that he had encountered a formidable opponent, how could Carnes willingly remain a bystander?
He was eagerly looking forward to a thrilling and exhilarating battle!
"Captain, I..." Demiurge seemed like he wanted to say something.
But he was stopped by Carnes, who had a smile on his face, as he raised his hand.
Slightly flexing his legs, Carnes walked straight to the bow of the ship.
Feeling the refreshing sea breeze blowing on his face, Carnes gazed at Mihawk, who was fighting on the sea, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Now, it's time for a change!"
