Chapitre 391: Raging Gyarados
After that, several agents quickly surrounded Mandrell and Rusalka.
"Who are you?! This is World Government's ship!"
Mandrell had undergone a significant change after evolving. Although his basic appearance remained the same, the World Government agents unfamiliar with him could not recognize him.
The blue figure was also different from their target, so they didn't even consider that angle.
Moreover, for some reason, facing Mandrell, they felt a strange aura that made it hard for them to breathe.
"Conqueror's Haki? No, it can't be the Conqueror's Haki. What the heck is this guy?"
The captain had a bad feeling in his heart. This job seemed more difficult than he had initially thought.
Mandrell's claws cut the ropes on Rusalka's body, and then he used his tail to wrap Rusalka up, protecting her behind him.
"It's me, Mandrell. Don't be afraid; I will take you out of here."
He was worried that his drastic change in appearance might make Rusalka not recognize him. Although he had mentioned the possibility of his appearance changing back then, the change happened much later than he anticipated and the change was also much more significant.
"I know, Mandrell. You should quickly leave; they're after you! Don't worry about me!"
Although they hadn't spent every moment together, they had been in a relationship for a long time. So, even though his appearance had changed, she still recognized him.
"Don't talk nonsense. Since I've come here, I'll definitely take you away. Don't worry, I'm strong."
After evolving, his original shirt was torn apart, leaving Mandrell bare-chested. On his left shoulder which was covered in blue scales, there was a Number 3 in black-color.
He was thinking about how to safely take Rusalka away from here. He is not unfamiliar with the air blade that had attacked just now; it was Rankyaku, a wind blade attack. Beast Pirates had emphasized this technique at the officer meeting.
Even among top-level experts, there are some who use skills derived from Rokushiki, so having an understanding of this skill was necessary.
The skill just now had targeted Rusalka, so he was forced to retreat.
It wasn't difficult for him to withstand this attack, but he didn't have a 100% guarantee of protecting Rusalka. He wasn't a turtle that could retreat into its shell.
There are blind spots in his protection. If he exposed his back to the enemy, something unexpected could happen from a place he couldn't perceive.
"Rusalka, I'll take you underwater later, and then you escape at full speed to your home in Fishman Island. I've already asked my friends to wait for you there."
Those Fish-Men could catch Rusalka because at that time, there was no water in the Mermaid Cove. Merfolk without legs have difficulty moving easily, so it gave the Fish-men an opportunity.
Such incidents were impossible in the ocean because Merfolk had the fastest swimming speed in the world, even surpassing Fish-Men.
The captain waited for his subordinates to take their positions. Watching Mandrell easily break the neck of one of his subordinates, he realized that this opponent wasn't as easy to deal with as he thought.
In their training, there were some combined attack formations that they had learned which were aimed at opponents slightly stronger than themselves.
Meanwhile, Mandrell was looking for an opportunity to send Rusalka away. After explaining to her what she should do, he quietly began gathering energy in his mouth.
Before the World Government personnel could assemble their formation, a scorching flame was spewed out by Mandrell.
Gyarados possesses many unexpected skills, such as Flamethrower. Although he had not evolved due to a lack of catalyst, his level kept accumulating, so after breaking through the limitations of evolution, many ideas about the use of abilities appeared in his mind.
For example, the Flamethrower. The raging flames temporarily forced the opponent to retreat, and then Mandrell took advantage of the opportunity to send Rusalka into the water.
"Go!"
The people of the World Government reacted swiftly. Several Rankyaku attacks came one after another. Mermaids are indeed fast swimmers, but this speed is based on the premise of ordinary humans. At least her swimming speed is not as fast as Rankyaku.
So, Mandrell used his body to block all their attacks.
Moreover, he continued to spew out high-temperature flames, blocking the attempts of these people to interfere with Rusalka's escape.
Seeing that Rusalka had gone far away, Mandrell revealed a satisfied smile. This was the biggest help she could give him. If she hadn't run away when she should have, she would have only caused trouble for him.
Rusalka understood this, so she swam into the water without looking back.
Meanwhile, the World Government's agents suddenly had a strange feeling.
"A blue dragon that breathes fire. Captain, could this guy be Kaido?"
"Don't talk nonsense! If that monster left his base, Marine Headquarters would definitely know!"
Of course, there was a more straightforward reason; if the opponent was really Kaido, they would probably have been killed long ago.
"Capture him! This guy must be carrying a big secret!"
They didn't notice that Mandrell had emerged from under the water. They even thought that he hadn't gone into the water because he was afraid of it. So, a few agents used Rankyaku as cover to harass Mandrell, while the rest began to advance.
Most of them only knew two or three styles, and the proportion of those who had mastered all of the styles of Rokushiki was not high among the agents and Marines.
Now, in the next few minutes, they would understand why Gyarados' alias is "Great Menace*." [TN: This alias is in chi*a, which has no English equivalent.]
With Rusalka gone, Mandrell no longer had any worries on his mind. So, the next thing to do was to take revenge against those who dared to touch his future wife.
"Shigan!"
An agent swung his arm at Mandrell, but what Mandrell did next exceeded his expectations. Instead of dodging or blocking, he bit down on the agent's arm.
"Tekkai... Ah!"
Sensing something wrong, he tried to use Tekkai to block the attack, but he underestimated Gyarados' biting force and his arm was forcibly bitten off by Mandrell's teeth.
"Ptui, is this what someone else's blood tastes like?"
Biting was common for Zoan Users. As others watched Mandrell, with his face covered in blood and his scale armor almost turning red, a wave of fear began to spread through the crowd.
However, they were not a motley group of pirates. Trained and disciplined, they still moved to attack Mandrell upon command.
Among these agents, there were no elites like CP9, so the immediate consequence of their attacks was the increasing amount of enemy blood on Mandrell's body.
"Ah!"
"It hurts, help me! Save.."
Throats bitten off, bodies torn apart, Mandrell's fighting was brutal and primitive. He used the most brutal methods to kill his enemies.
They had only wanted to capture a Fish-Man, so they didn't take this job seriously. Moreover, the ones who were sent out under layers of outsourcing were not elites, so they couldn't even break Mandrell's scales.
Boom!
Standing in mid-air, Mandrell spewed flames towards the deck. The powerful flames split the deck in half, and the ship's ammunition storage area was also ignited by the flames. Standing on the sinking wreckage of the ship, Mandrell grabbed the last living agent.
"Who are you?! There can't be a monster like you among the Fish-Men! Why do you have Kaido's abilities?!"
"Who I am doesn't matter, but you touched someone you shouldn't have."
Then he continued to squeeze his palm, and the captain's head was crushed as if it were watermelon.
