One piece: Establishing a Pirate Family

Chapter 200: Demon Slaying

Just as Garp was capturing the pirates responsible for Zephyr's family's death, a fierce battle was unfolding on an island in the central New World.

"Charlotte! We've never interfered with each other before! What's the meaning of this?"

Bondi World shouted at Charlotte, who was sitting casually on the bow of a ship. Several pirate ships were docked in the harbor, their crews standing on edge.

"Mind my own business? Hah! I only know that I won't allow anyone to snore beside my bed!"

A green light flickered in Charlotte's eyes as the Seven-Star Sword appeared in his hand.

Seeing that look in Charlotte's eyes, Bondi World felt a chill run down his spine. His instincts screamed danger, but he immediately forced himself to stay alert.

"If you won't let me live in peace, then don't think you'll have it easy either! Momo: 100x Gun!"

Bondi World raised his firearm and fired.

The moment the bullet left the chamber, its size expanded 100 times, and its speed also increased 100 times.

It tore through the air, aimed directly at Charlotte.

Charlotte narrowed his eyes as he watched the bullet approach.

With a flick of his wrist, the Seven-Star Sword slashed forward.

A 100-meter-long green slash shot forth, colliding with the incoming bullet.

Clang!

BOOM!

The moment the two forces met, a metallic clang echoed, followed by a violent explosion.

Charlotte's slash easily cut through the bullet, causing it to detonate mid-air. The force of the explosion neutralized the slash, sending shockwaves rippling through the battlefield.

"Not bad! You actually blocked my casual attack. That's not easy!"

Charlotte raised an eyebrow, gazing at Bondi World with mild amusement.

In the New World, very few people could withstand a swordsman's slash head-on. The fact that Bondi World managed to do so was commendable.

"Damn it!"

Bondi World clenched his teeth in frustration, but his eyes held a deep sense of fear.

Even though that attack didn't use Armament Haki, it was still one of his strongest moves—yet it could only barely block Charlotte's casual attack.

"Are all these great swordsmen this strong…?"

His mind flashed back to two years ago when he never even saw the Golden Lion but was defeated in a matter of moments. He barely escaped with his life.

Two years of hard work… yet still not enough?

No! He was Bondi World! The Destroyer of Worlds!

Bondi World gritted his teeth and rushed toward the gun battery in the harbor.

Charlotte saw Bondi World's figure flicker as he used Shave, the Navy's high-speed movement technique.

However, no movement could escape Charlotte's Observation Haki.

Charlotte's eyes calmly followed Bondi World's movements.

Seeing him head for the turret, Charlotte immediately understood what he planned to do.

But he didn't react.

For the first time in a while, he was enjoying a fight.

Now, he finally understood why strong people like Kaido sometimes let their opponents attack.

Just like Kaido stood there and let Luffy hit him, Charlotte was doing the same now.

When you're too strong, it gets lonely.

"Momo: 100x Cannon!"

Bondi World saw that Charlotte was distracted and immediately fired his strongest attack.

The moment the cannonball left the turret, its size expanded 100 times, and its speed multiplied by 100 times.

But this time, it was covered in Armament Haki.

Clearly, this was Bondi World's strongest attack.

Charlotte's pupils reflected the approaching cannonball.

The Seven-Star Sword crackled with green and red lightning, radiating an overwhelming aura.

"Demon Slash!"

A crescent-shaped green slash shot forward, its movement unpredictable as it curved unpredictably toward the cannonball.

Charlotte had recently developed this technique.

Previously, his attacks were too linear—making them easier to dodge.

But with this technique, the trajectory of the attack changed mid-air, making it extremely difficult to avoid.

The idea came to him while playing boomerang with his children in the castle gardens.

This was the first time he had used this move in battle.

BOOM!

The crescent-shaped slash pierced through the gigantic cannonball like a knife through butter, splitting it cleanly in half.

The cannonball exploded, but the slash continued forward, heading straight for Bondi World.

Bondi World's pupils shrunk.

He had no time to dodge!

"Momo: 100x Slash!"

He quickly swung his sickle, the blade covered in Haki, attempting to cut through Charlotte's attack.

But—

The crescent slash suddenly changed direction, swerving mid-air before slamming into him.

BOOM!

A massive explosion erupted.

"Cough…!"

As the dust settled, a figure emerged from the smoke.

Bondi World stood—his sickle raised, blocking his chest.

His entire body was covered in dust, blood dripped from the corner of his mouth, and the turret behind him was completely destroyed.

"Not bad, not bad! You actually managed to take that hit!"

Charlotte smiled slightly.

"But let's see if you can handle this one."

The Seven-Star Sword once again crackled with red and green lightning, its blade now coated in an extremely dense layer of Armament Haki.

At that moment—

Bondi World's Observation Haki screamed in warning.

His intuition told him one thing—

If you take that attack, you will die.

RUN.

Without hesitation, he activated Momo: 100x Speed!

But Charlotte only smirked.

"Demon Sword—Tyrant Heaven!"

An enormous shockwave-infused slash erupted from Charlotte's blade, tearing through the air itself.

The sheer pressure of the attack caused the atmosphere to distort, the ground beneath them shattering from the sheer force.

Bondi World felt the unimaginable power approaching from behind.

His hair stood on end.

Death loomed over him.

"Momo: 100x Liberation!"

Bondi World poured all his strength into his final technique.

His muscles swelled as he activated the full power of the Momo Fruit.

But—

Would it be enough?
