Chapter 219

That was an X-shaped wound, and blood was gushing out along the bottom of the X.

"Ughhhhh!"

After a roar, Jack's self-healing ability actually increased significantly, and the wound began to heal slowly. But before it could fully heal, Jack rushed toward Karl.

Ding ding dang dang, the sound of weapons colliding.

After being injured, Jack seemed to be enraged, but he didn't lose his reason. Instead, he relied on his powerful physical fitness to fight back and forth with Karl.

And he fought very smartly. He took some painless attacks head-on, and dodged killing moves if he could. If he couldn't dodge, he would protect his vital parts.

From this, Karl determined that Jack wasn't reckless, but simply young and frivolous.

After all, this guy is only in his twenties. It's strange if he isn't arrogant to become a main officer of an overlord-level pirate crew at a young age!

However, his current strength is indeed very poor. His mastery of Haki is average, only used for defense, and he has almost no Observation Haki.

The only advantage is that he is very durable. If it were Katakuri, his combat power would be limited after being cut a few times, but Jack had been cut by him more than twenty times and was still full of vigor.

Low attack, high blood, high defense, high recovery—this is Jack!

"Elbaf Spear: Ikoku!"

A huge purple slash swept across Jack's body, blood rained down, and Jack knelt on the ground uncontrollably, looking at Karl unwillingly.

"It seems you are going to prison again. Will Kaido come to save you this time?"

Jack showed an unruly look, endured the sharp pain, stood up from the ground, and looked down at Karl from a height, relying on his height advantage.

"Who do you think you are? Do you think you can catch me?"

"Hmph! Don't dream, go to hell!"

Then Jack waved his long sword and rushed toward Karl. Karl smiled disdainfully, flashed to the side, and dodged Jack's suicide attack.

But the next second, Karl was stunned.

Only heard a splash, Jack jumped straight into the sea, stirred up a splash, and blood mist floated in the sea, but Jack's figure had already disappeared.

Karl:???

Does this count as running away?

"What's wrong? Where is Jack?"

Karl pointed at the water surface helplessly: "There, he jumped into the sea!"

Ain looked at the sea in disbelief, then at Karl: "This, he, isn't he a devil fruit user? Is jumping into the sea preparing to commit suicide?"

"Don't forget, he is a fish-man. Even if he can't swim, he won't die in the sea."

"Then what to do? Just let him run away like this?"

Karl touched his chin. After all, I am also the 【Father of the Sea】, should I jump into the sea and catch Jack?

No no no, forget it, too much trouble. Exposing my trump card for a Jack is not worth it.

"Let Nelson bring the warship over, we'll wait here for an hour."

"Good."

Soon, two warships blockaded the surrounding sea area. It's a pity that Jack didn't show up after an hour, so Karl had to give up.

"Forget it, let's go! Getting to the G-10 base is the priority."

After the Marine warship moved away from the sea area, Jack slowly surfaced and swam toward his ship.

"Damn Marines, actually robbed all the money I worked so hard to get!"

No way, Jack couldn't sail back to Onigashima alone, so...

"Boss, I let people do it..."

Don't know how long he lay on the ship, finally, the Beasts Pirates came. Looking at the flag, it should be Queen's ship.

"You guy is really useless, can't even deal with a Marine Vice Admiral?"

Facing Queen, Jack couldn't be arrogant at all, and said in a low voice: "Brother Queen, that guy is really powerful."

"Forget it, forget it, too lazy to talk to you, come back with me!"

New World, G-10 base, located on Melem Island.

There are about 3,000 residents on the island, about 1,500 Marines, and a total of 15 warships, plus Karl's, making it 17. The island's defensive strength is relatively strong. At least ordinary pirates don't dare to easily invade Melem Island.

After showing the documents, Karl successfully became the G-10 branch base commander and officially moved into the G-10 base.

"I am Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral Karl. I'm new here and don't know you well yet. Let's introduce ourselves."

The several Marine generals standing in front of Karl immediately saluted and shouted loudly: "I am XXX"

After they finished introducing themselves, Karl nodded: "Very good, very spirited. Let me introduce you, this is Colonel Ain, user of the Retro-Retro Fruit."

"In the future, if I am not here, her orders are my orders."

"Understood!"

"By the way, have there been any pirates appearing around Melem Island recently?"

Several Marine generals shook their heads: "Report, sir, no!"

Karl touched his chin and immediately issued an order: "You immediately arrange personnel to patrol the surrounding sea area, once a day from now on, resolutely don't let go of any suspicious personnel."

"Yes!"

After they left, Ain asked strangely: "Why let them patrol?"

Karl said in a deep voice: "Training troops, find something for them to do, ensure the combat effectiveness of the Marine team."

"I did this when I was at the 108th branch in the North Blue."

Ain nodded as if she understood: "Then what about us? Just wait here every day for pirates to come?"

"That's not it. Once we receive news from headquarters, we have to cooperate with the operation, or if pirates invade nearby Dressrosa or Lulusia Kingdom, we also have to move out."

Ain didn't know what she thought of, and suddenly laughed: "That's quite suitable for you, you guy likes to slack off the most!"

Karl's face changed: "Hey hey, don't you make false accusations! I didn't slack off at all when fighting pirates. That Jack just now, wasn't he seriously injured and ran away by me?"

"Besides, I usually take time to help you exercise your physique, you can't pretend you didn't see it!"

Ain rolled her eyes at Karl: "Then what about your Hancock? It's so far from Amazon Lily..."

"This is not a problem for you to worry about."

"Really don't know what Sister Hancock sees in you, you fickle radish!"

Karl's mouth turned up slightly: "Then what about you? Do you see anything in me?"

Looking Karl up and down, Ain lifted Karl's chin, quite like a big sister: "I do see something, but it's a pity..."

Ain shook her head, but Karl hugged Ain in his arms, leaned against her ear and whispered: "You can't escape."

"What do you want to do?" Ain's voice trembled slightly, her eyes covered with a layer of water mist, somewhat expectant, somewhat resistant.

Karl's mouth turned up slightly, sniffed Ain's collar, his face changed, and he said in shock: "Did you use my laundry detergent?"

"Go to hell!!!" ===== CHAPTER 221 =====
