章節 66: 5 Vice Admirals
---
(There was a 5 Vice Admirals on this buster call: Doberman, Onigumo, Strawberry, Yamakaji, and Momonga.)
---
The third Marine battleship erupted in flames, obliterated by Shisui's relentless lightning assault.
"Whaaaaaaah!!" The remaining Marines looked on in horror. Out of ten battleships sent in the Buster Call, only seven remained, and their chances of being the next target were shrinking by the second.
One of the Vice Admirals, Momonga, gritted his teeth, refusing to let the Uchiha continue their onslaught. "We can't let them keep this up! If we do, all our ships will be destroyed!"
With that, he launched himself into the air, using Moonwalk to charge toward the Bridge of Hesitation.
"Momonga Vice Admiral!!" the soldiers shouted in alarm.
"Move the fleet closer! Support the Vice Admiral!" commanded Strawberry, another Vice Admiral.
For the first time, they were experiencing a Buster Call that wasn't entirely in their favor. They had always relied on overwhelming firepower to obliterate enemies without giving them a chance to respond, but these intruders were turning their own tactics against them with terrifying ease.
High above, Shisui raised his arm, lightning arcing from his hand once more. "Go to hell!"
Momonga closed in, his sword enveloped in Armament Haki as he swung at Shisui's head.
Clang!
The blow never landed. A small figure had appeared in front of Shisui, blocking the strike with his own blade. It was Itachi who was injured for blocking this move.
"Impossible!" Momonga gasped, struggling to comprehend how a child could intercept his Haki-infused strike.
He retreated, touching down on the bridge just as another thunderbolt obliterated the battleship he'd just left.
"Stop!" he yelled, glaring at Kitaro and the others. "Who are you people?!"
Kitaro shrugged, almost amused. "This question is getting tiresome. We're from Uchiha Security Company, hired to protect the Straw Hat crew and Nico Robin. If you want them dead, I'm afraid we'll have to get rid of you first."
"Uchiha Security Company?" Momonga frowned, baffled by the unfamiliar name. "Do you have any idea what it means to go against the World Government?"
Kitaro's tone remained nonchalant. "We're here to get paid, not to make friends. However, if you back down, you might live to see another day."
"Impossible!" Another Vice Admiral, Onigumo, appeared beside Momonga, his hair twisted into six additional arms, each wielding a sword. "Nobody defies Marine forces and walks away unscathed. If we let you go, what would that do to our reputation?!"
Kitaro raised an eyebrow. "Let us go? I think you misunderstood. I was offering you a way out. But if that's your choice…"
In an instant, Momonga slashed at the stone arch, sending debris raining down as Kitaro, Shisui, and Itachi landed gracefully on the bridge.
"Shave!" Onigumo took advantage of the moment, lunging forward with eight swords aimed at the trio.
Itachi stepped forward, his sword enveloped in Armament Haki and flame. "Fire Breathing, Fourth Form: Blooming Flame Undulation!"
Clang! The swords clashed with a blinding flash. Onigumo, expecting an easy victory, was immediately on the defensive.
"This kid…!" Onigumo thought, stunned by the child's exceptional strength, speed, and swordsmanship. Despite his mastery of Six Styles, Life Return, Armament Haki, and Observation Haki, he found himself being pushed back by someone barely in his teens. Just thinking of the need to be serious to beat him was humiliating.
Just at this moment Itachi used sharingan: illusion.
With a rapid series of strikes, Itachi severed Onigumo's extra arms, one by one.
"Impossible!" The surrounding Marines gasped in disbelief. "The Vice Admiral Onigumo… being overwhelmed by a child?!"
Nearby, Momonga was engaged with Shisui, trying desperately to land a hit as Shisui dodged effortlessly. In a flash, Shisui appeared directly in front of him, too fast for the Vice Admiral to react.
"30 million volts: Discharge!" Shisui shouted, his palm pressing against Momonga's chest as an intense current surged through the Vice Admiral's body.
"Aaahhh!" Momonga screamed in agony, collapsing to his knees, his body convulsing and singed from the electricity.
"Momonga Vice Admiral!" yelled Doberman, Yamakaji, and Strawberry as they rushed in, attempting to strike Shisui down.
Crack! Shisui transformed into lightning, reappearing a safe distance away as the three Vice Admirals' slashes struck only empty air, leaving deep gouges in the bridge.
"Momonga, are you alright?" Doberman asked as they regrouped around him, noting his badly trembling form from the recent electric shock.
Momonga's voice was barely a whisper. "Damn… them…their eyes!"
---
Shisui raised his palm towards the group of Marines.
Crack!
Shisui's wrist transformed into lightning.
"Not good!" someone shouted.
"God's Sanction!!"
Shisui couldn't resist the name—it sounded too cool not to use. A thick pillar of lightning shot from his hand, targeting the location of Vice Admiral Momonga and the others.
Boom!
The impact destroyed part of the Hesitation Bridge. Chaos erupted as Marines scrambled to react.
Whoosh!
Vice Admiral Doberman appeared behind Shisui, attempting a surprise attack with his sword. But Shisui, prepared, shifted his body into pure lightning, dodging the strike effortlessly. As Doberman's blade cut through empty air, Shisui caught the sword by the hilt with his bare hand.
Crack!
Realizing his mistake, Doberman quickly released his grip. But Shisui just smirked and kicked him in the abdomen, sending Doberman flying backward.
Bang!
Doberman crashed into a nearby Marine warship, causing it to shake under the impact.
"Doberman Vice Admiral!!" a Marine cried out.
Bang, bang, bang!
The Marines opened fire on Shisui, but the bullets passed through his elemental form.
"Don't shoot! It's useless!" yelled Strawberry. "Logia users are immune to normal attacks. Only bullets with Armament Haki can harm him!"
Under Strawberry's orders, the Marines redirected their fire towards Kitaro, who had yet to join the fray.
"Really, can't I just get a moment to rest?" Kitaro muttered. He raised his leg and executed "Tempest Kick: Flame Bird!"
A wave of energy shaped like a fire phoenix shot from his kick, striking a warship and sinking it instantly—the fifth warship lost to the Uchiha trio. Half of the Buster Call's ships were now destroyed.
Screams filled the air as Marines were thrown into the sea by the explosion's impact.
" Commodores-level forces, move out!" one Marine ordered.
Around 200 Marine Commodores, elite soldiers from Naval Headquarters, jumped onto the Hesitation Bridge, ready to engage.
The trio didn't flinch. With their Sharingan and Observation Haki, they dodged the attacks with ease, countering in kind. Even Shisui, using only his hands, displayed taijutsu mastery, delivering blows that sent the Marines staggering.
"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"
Itachi formed a quick seal and unleashed a massive fireball from his mouth, scattering the Marine ranks as the flames exploded.
"Wh-what's going on? He can spit fire?" a Marine shouted, bewildered.
"It's like he's another type of that extinct tribe"
Meanwhile, Vice Admiral Yamakaji attempted a sneak attack on Shisui. But Shisui, sensing his approach, turned and formed a one-handed seal.
"Thunder Bird!"
A giant thunderbird formed from lightning shot forth, striking Yamakaji and leaving him scorched.
"Vice Admiral Yamakaji!!" a Marine cried out.
Two Vice Admirals were now incapacitated, and a third injured. Panic started to spread among the Marines.
"Damn it! Don't be afraid!" Onigumo yelled, trying to rally his men.
Itachi stepped forward, blade at the ready, and activated Breath of Fire: Fifth Form: Flame Tiger.
Roar!
With a powerful swing, Itachi unleashed a blazing slash in the shape of a tiger. Onigumo raised his sword in defense.
Boom!
The shockwave from the impact sent nearby Marines sprawling, and cracks appeared beneath Onigumo's feet.
Crack!
The bridge shattered beneath him, and Onigumo fell into the sea below.
"Onigumo Vice Admiral!!"
Amid the chaos, Strawberry seized the chance to launch a sneak attack on Kitaro. But with a flick of his hand, Kitaro shattered Strawberry's swords with his bare fists.
"Sneak attacks? Not my style," Kitaro remarked coolly.
Strawberry paled but quickly recovered his composure. "Against criminals, there's no need for honor."
Crack!
With a flick of his finger, Kitaro shot a lightning spear, piercing Strawberry's chest.
"What a coincidence," Kitaro said. "I feel the same way."
Strawberry collapsed to the ground, clutching his wound.
The Marines were stunned. Five Vice Admirals and half of their warships had been defeated by only three people.
On the other side, the Straw Hat crew looked on in awe. Robin's eyes were wide with disbelief. Buster Call… actually broken…
Zoro clenched his fists, watching Itachi's flawless swordsmanship. He had spent years honing his skills, but seeing Itachi—a mere child—so adept made him question his own progress.
Suddenly, a biting chill filled the air.
Woosh!
In the blink of an eye, the entire sea was frozen solid, transforming the waters into an expanse of ice.
Kitaro raised his brow. "So… you're finally here."
A calm voice sounded from nearby. "Ah… sorry about that. Brother, could you let him go? That guy is my subordinate."
It was Admiral Aokiji, standing amidst the frozen sea, his gaze fixed intently on the Uchiha trio.
