Chapter 14: Seizing the Ship

Crocodile stood atop the Giant Python's head, coldly watching the shells flying toward them. Facing the dense artillery fire, he instead curled his lips into a disdainful cold smile.

He raised his right hand and gave a light wave.

"Sand Blade"

Instantly, a sharp sand blade tore through the air, heading straight for the shells.

The next second, the trajectories of all the shells suddenly changed, stopping dead in midair, forcibly snapped in two, turning into countless fragments that fell into the Sea.

The pirates on the Giant Python's back saw this scene and immediately burst into cheers, their faces full of excitement and fanaticism.

"Worthy of Vice Admiral Crocodile! His reputation is well deserved!"

"The strength of the Seven Warlords of the Sea is truly awe-inspiring!"

Ghost Spider witnessed this scene, his face turning terribly gloomy.

"That man... is Sand Crocodile Crocodile!" Ghost Spider gritted his teeth, his voice full of anger and astonishment. "The strength of a Former Warlord of the Sea is indeed extraordinary!"

He looked around, his gaze sweeping over the panicked soldiers, and shouted sternly: "All personnel enter combat status! Activate all cannons, take defensive formation! Prepare for close-quarters combat!"

"Soldiers, defend the warship to the death, never let the escaped criminals board! This is the dignity of our Marine!"

Orochimaru's gaze swept over the Marine warships ahead, the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Two are enough."

The words had just fallen when the Giant Python's massive body suddenly accelerated, turning into a purple lightning bolt, and with the force of crushing the withered and breaking the rotten, it directly rammed into the nearest warship.

"Boom!"

The Giant Python's hard head heavily struck the warship's side, the enormous impact instantly spreading through the entire hull. The warship shook violently, like a small boat tossing in wind and waves.

On the Deck, the soldiers fell this way and that, staggering as they tried to keep their balance. They frantically grabbed anything nearby that could steady them, their eyes full of terror.

"Vice Admiral, this impact is too strong!" a soldier said in a panicked Tone, "If this continues, the hull..."

As the Giant Python fiercely rammed the warship, Crocodile raised his hand and waved, loudly saying: "All of you, get down, occupy those warships!"

With his order, the prisoners on the Giant Python's back were like a pack of hungry wolves, roaring as they jumped from the giant python onto the surrounding warships.

"Kill!"

"Seize the warships!"

Screams rose and fell, dozens of strong prisoners landed on the warships' Decks, instantly engaging in melee with the panicked Marine soldiers.

At this moment, the Giant Python suddenly coiled around the hull of the warship nearest to it, beginning to shake it wildly.

The warship shook violently under the Giant Python's coiling, as if it might capsize at any moment. On the Deck, the Marine soldiers fell this way and that, completely unable to stand firm.

Some soldiers accidentally fell into the Sea in the violent shaking, and were instantly swallowed by the Giant Python waiting nearby.

At the instant the Giant Python swallowed several Marine soldiers, its eyes suddenly widened, a glint of excitement flashing in its eyes. As if stimulated by the pleasure of devouring prey, the Giant Python's movements of shaking the warship became even more violent and forceful.

Ghost Spider slashed down with a sword, and in the swing of his hand and fall of his blade, a pirate fell dead in response. At this moment, his gaze fell on the Giant Python coiling around the warship and shaking it wildly, and his face instantly turned deathly pale. He let out a low roar: "Damn it! You beast!"

The words had not fallen when Ghost Spider kicked off with both legs, his figure suddenly rising high. He actually stepped through the air as if on solid ground, rapidly taking a series of steps, instantly closing the distance to the Giant Python.

At the moment Ghost Python approached the Giant Python, his originally shoulder-length short hair suddenly surged, growing wildly, and in the blink of an eye stretched out like eight arms, tightly gripping the eight blades he carried behind his back.

At this moment, Ghost Spider's hair seemed to have a life of its own, dancing wildly in the air.

"Die!" Ghost Spider roared, eight blades instantly flashing with black Armament Haki light! The Giant Python suddenly raised its thick tail to strike! However, Ghost Spider swung his attack arm, the sharp blade instantly cutting toward the Giant Python's tail! "Screech!" A sharp sound of breaking the air rang out, the Giant Python's tail snapped off in response, fresh blood spurting out! However, Ghost Spider did not stop, in an instant, Ghost Spider erupted with astonishing power, eight sharp blades viciously cutting upward along the Giant Python's tail! "Hiss hiss hiss!!"

The Giant Python let out a heart-rending scream of pain, its body under the sharp blade's cutting like tofu being cut into pieces, shattered! Blood columns spurted from the wound, scales and flesh flying through the air, the scene extremely horrifying! "Orochimaru Adult!" The Giant Python suddenly roared loudly.

The next moment, its massive body suddenly burst apart, turning into a cloud of smoke, instantly returning to Ryuchi Cave.

"What?!" Ghost Spider remained in midair, staring wide-eyed in Disbelief, the blade in his hand even still maintaining the slashing posture from just now.

Orochimaru looked at Ghost Spider, his brow tightly furrowed, his hands quickly forming Hand Seals, and he said in a low voice: "Wind Release: Kamikiri!"

The words had just fallen when an invisible wind blade instantly condensed, at a speed difficult for the naked eye to capture, slashing toward Ghost Spider.

Ghost Spider seemed to sense something, suddenly turning his head, the sharp blade in his hand without hesitation chopping toward the wind blade.

"Clang!" The blade and wind blade Collided, emitting a crisp metallic collision sound.

Ghost Spider looked at Orochimaru, coldly smiling: "Is that all your skill? You really disappoint me."

The words had not fallen when he had already charged toward Orochimaru, eight sharp blades pointing at the other's vital points.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes, his hands quickly forming Hand Seals, and said in a low voice: "Wind Release: Wind Blade Barrage"

Instantly, countless sharp wind blades appeared out of thin air, densely and densely attacking Ghost Spider. The wind blades, like a sudden storm, tore through the air, emitting sharp sounds of breaking the air, with astonishing power.

However, facing this overwhelming attack, Ghost Spider was not panicked at all. He slightly swayed his figure, actually shuttling between the wind blades like a ghost, each time cleverly avoiding the attack.

Orochimaru's Pupil Shrink, this was foreseeing the trajectory of the wind blades?! At this moment, Ghost Spider had already closed in, eight sharp blades carrying fierce Killing Intent, instantly chopping toward Orochimaru's Skull.

"Go to die!" Ghost Spider Roared, the Armament Haki on the blade becoming more solid, as if to cut Orochimaru in half.

"Bang!"

The blade heavily struck Orochimaru's body, however, the next moment, Orochimaru's body turned into a cloud of smoke, instantly dissipating.

Ghost Spider widened his eyes, saying in Disbelief: "What?!"

He looked around, trying to find Orochimaru's trace, but suddenly heard the other's voice coming from beside him.

"Water Release: Exploding Water Colliding Wave!"
