Bab 55: Chapter 55
At this moment, the surrounding crowd had already been frightened and scattered, and several buildings had collapsed.
Amidst the ruins of the houses, and the swirling dust.
Carnes stood on a broken wall, holding the blood-stained sword Eclipse, coldly overlooking the area below, shrouded in thick mist.
Now, there was complete silence below.
After staring at the area below for a while, Carnes swung the blood-stained sword with a flick of his hand.
"Swish!"
In an instant, the blood attached to the blade was flung away, leaving behind a long trail of blood on the ground.
There was no need for words because at this moment, no matter what he said, he would not receive a response from her.
Putting the sword back into its sheath, Carnes turned around and leaped down from the broken wall, walking towards the outside.
With his bare hands, Carnes pushed aside the dense fog in front of him and slowly walked out from among the ruins of the houses.
"Captain!" As soon as Carnes walked out, Demiurge immediately approached, calling out softly.
Carnes brushed off the dust on his clothes, smiled, and glanced at Demiurge, Power, and Ulquiorra.
"Let's go!"
Just when they were about to leave.
Suddenly, a series of rapid footsteps came from ahead of Carnes and his companions.
The footsteps grew closer.
They thought it was the reinforcements from the Marines.
But when Carnes turned his head to look, he saw, not the Marines, but Bonney and her crew.
It seemed that they had hurried over upon hearing the commotion from this direction.
Looking at the devastated street and then at Carnes not far away, Bonney raised an eyebrow in confusion and asked.
"What happened?"
However, Carnes had no intention of explaining to her. He simply replied with a faint "Nothing" and led Demiurge and the others to leave the place.
Bonney looked at Carnes with suspicion, then glanced at the ruins shrouded in thick fog.
Although she had some curiosity about going in to investigate, after careful consideration, Bonney gave up on that thought and followed the footsteps of Carnes and the others as they left.
...
Not long after Carnes and his group left, a series of dense footsteps gradually approached the street, echoing from afar to near, causing the entire street to tremble slightly.
Soon, the source of the footsteps appeared on the street.
It was the two female officers who had been persuaded by Tsuru earlier, leading hundreds of fully armed Marines to arrive at this location.
Looking at the devastated street ahead, which had already returned to calmness and turned into a ruin, their pace involuntarily slowed down.
At this moment, the entire street was empty, and there was no sign of Carnes and his group.
Tsuru's whereabouts were also nowhere to be seen.
The residents had long since fled.
A strong sense of unease surged within the two female officers.
Feeling somewhat lost, they looked around and called out with trembling voices.
"Tsuru... Vice Admiral Tsuru!"
Silence~
There was no response to their calls.
They panicked and began shouting loudly.
"Vice Admiral Tsuru!"
"Vice Admiral Tsuru!"
But no matter how they shouted, they received no response.
The surrounding was eerily quiet, sending shivers down their spines.
It was not until their gaze fell on the ruins of a house on the side, and they climbed over a small mountain of debris along a broken wall.
Finally, they saw Vice Admiral Tsuru, whom they had been longing for.
However, it was in that instant of seeing Tsuru that their legs lost control, one of them couldn't maintain balance and fell down the rubble hill.
"Thud, thud~"
There was no time to cry out in pain or check their injuries.
Their eyes turned red, and their minds went blank, driven only by instinct as they crawled and stumbled towards Tsuru.
Within just a few meters, they stumbled over rubble two or three times, before finally crawling in a sorry state to Tsuru's side.
Their hands were trembling, they wanted to help Tsuru up, but for a moment, they didn't know how to proceed.
Tears welled up in their eyes, and the two of them gently shook Tsuru's body, calling out with tearful voices.
"Vice Admiral Tsuru..."
However, no matter how they called, how they shook, Tsuru never responded to them.
Her face was covered in dust and grime, and almost half of her body was stained red with blood.
The terrifying wound that pierced her heart was clearly visible.
Gazing at Tsuru's miserable state, the two women couldn't hold back any longer, and tears flowed down their faces like a burst dam.
They held Tsuru's lifeless body, looked up, and wailed heart-wrenchingly.
They cried with tears streaming, crying until they were almost out of breath.
The mournful cries seemed to spread throughout the entire island!
On this day, the Vice Admiral Tsuru also known as the "Grand Strategist of Marine" died.
A "rookie pirate" who had just arrived in the sea had ended her life.
She died at the hands of Captain of the "Gale Emperor Pirates."
" Carnes!"
