80: Section 80

A CP6 agent stationed on the ship hurriedly ran to Spandam to report the battle situation.

Before he could finish speaking...

A Banshee materialized behind him.

Then, with a hideous grin, she possessed him.

The expression on the agent's face quickly switched from panic to despair and terror; his fresh skin rapidly dehydrated, and his posture gradually hunched over!

Thud!—

Another mummified corpse collapsed to the ground!

Spandam retreated several steps in a row, stumbling until he fell flat on his butt.

"This... what on earth is this?!!!"

Chapter 90: The Death of Spandam!

"Ghosts?"

"Idiot! How can there be gho— holy crap!"

"Waaah!— Mommy, the ghosts have started killing people!"

"Bastards! Everyone calm the hell down, that's just a Devil Fruit ability!"

"Wait! There are rumors that a genius Supernova recently arrived in the Grand Line. His title seems to be the Ghost King!"

"Omar Su?"

"That's right! It's definitely him!"

"But where is his midnight rose? A ghost ship, huh? Hehe, I wonder what Gekko Moriah's face will look like when he finds out."

The sides of the channel were filled with noise.

After the initial chaos, those with some knowledge quickly pinpointed the culprit's identity!

Someone had stuck their neck out, and it was a rookie who had just broken into the Grand Line.

The pirates present all began to watch from a distance.

Just then!

Swish!—

Su Ming appeared out of thin air on the deck, only three meters away from Spandam.

"Omar Su! It's actually you!"

A roar so sharp it broke into a screech rang out, but Su Ming ignored it, calmly instructing Midnight:

"Be quick, Midnight, or the others will get impatient."

"As you command, Master."

Spandam was beyond furious:

"Damn you, Omar! How dare you ignore me... Agents of CP6 and CP7, take this bastard down! I want him alive! I'm going to interrogate him personally!"

Swish, swish, swish!—

Over a dozen agents flashed onto the scene.

Holding flintlocks and sharp long blades, they stepped in unison using the Six Styles: Soru to form a pincer formation. In the next instant, they acted in perfect coordination, simultaneously attacking Su Ming's vital points!

Ignoring Spandam's incessant chatter as he barked orders while his legs trembled uncontrollably,

Su Ming's right hand flickered.

The modao bristle-tusk manifested, stained with a smear of crimson.

A blood-colored blade light swept across the entire field!

Clang!—

The ship's island over ten meters away was sliced in half by the blood light!

The upper half of the island tilted and slid toward the sea, the cut as smooth as a mirror. With a loud boom, it sent up a splash over ten meters high!

The warship shook violently, and the agents surrounding Su Ming were simultaneously sent flying back, their bodies splitting in two mid-air as blood sprayed the scene!

Bolstered by Armament Haki Overlord Body and driven by 17 points of Physique, that lethal strike not only instantly killed their physical bodies but also incinerated their souls into ash!

Yes.

Su Ming's Armament Haki Overlord Body didn't just bolster the upper limit of physical attacks.

For those facing Su Ming's blade, their spirit was also a target of the attack!

With a squelch,

Spandam fell flat on his butt again.

Su Ming gave a cold glance, and Spandam scrambled backwards on all fours, rolling and crawling until he hit the ship's railing with a thud.

"You... you can't kill me!"

"I am an official of the World Government, a high-ranking commander of the CP Department!"

"Listen! Omar..."

Pfft!—

The blood-red blade light flashed past, and a head flew off in response, a fountain of blood pumping over two meters high!

"I'm listening, you idiot..."

With a sneer, he casually cast a Greater Disintegration Barrier around himself.

The next moment!

A 36-part chorus of shrill screams rang out!

It was the spell released by Midnight and her Banshee Legion—Banshees Wail!

On the warship, the surviving sailors and shipwrights were struck as if by lightning; their eyes rolled back, and they died on the spot!

Slap!—

Su Ming slapped his palm onto the deck.

In the next instant,

Accompanied by ripples of mysterious energy, everything was gone!

No warship, no corpses, no blood!

The sea currents rushed over, and in the end, even the traces of the scene were washed clean!

On both sides of the channel, several pirate crews looked at each other in bewilderment.

They didn't understand how this was done... A Devil Fruit ability?

It didn't seem like it!

What kind of fruit could be this powerful?

Wait!

Where's the treasure tree adam?

Fuck!

The faces of the three Supernovas with bounties over 200 million turned dark.

...

Dock One, Mayor's Office.

Iceburg was just about to process a proposal for the maintenance and renovation of the city's waterways when his train of thought was interrupted by Kalifa's sudden visit.

"Mr. Mayor, there is an emergency situation that needs to be reported to you."

Wearing a form-fitting professional suit with blonde hair falling over her shoulders, Kalifa maintained her poker face even when discussing a so-called emergency.

"Speak!"

Iceburg picked up his magnifying glass and continued his work at the desk.

He was completely indifferent to the so-called emergency Kalifa mentioned.

This was Water 7, the most developed maritime city in the shipbuilding industry. With all sorts of people around, all sorts of problems were bound to arise.

He was long used to it.

However...

"The Municipal Security Bureau reports that a major case of violent looting occurred a few minutes ago at the Saint Poplar district outlet!"

Gently pushing up her plain glasses, Kalifa continued her report calmly and methodically:

"According to the investigation, the Ghost King Omar Su and his Ghost Legion forcibly looted a World Government warship near the main channel's outlet!"

Clatter!—

The magnifying glass dropped onto the desk.

Iceburg's face turned pale.

Ghost King Omar?

Ghost Legion!

And a World Government warship?

I...

Taking a deep breath, Iceburg suppressed the anger in his heart and asked:

"Have the casualty statistics been compiled?"

"Regrettably, Mr. Mayor," Kalifa continued her formal statement, "there were no survivors among the entire crew, including Commander Spandam! That warship, along with the treasure tree adam that was the finale of tonight's auction, has also disappeared!"

Iceburg's pupils constricted violently.

He slumped back into his chair.

After a long while, Iceburg finally spoke with difficulty:

"Pass down the order: Water 7 is under full martial law tonight! Also, report the situation to the World Government for me and contact the Security Bureau. I will handle this matter personally!"

"Understood, Mr. Iceburg."

Kalifa turned and left.

Half an hour later.

Having efficiently completed all her tasks, Kalifa made her way to a hidden bar.

She pushed the door open; there wasn't a single customer in the bar.

Walking toward the bar counter, Blueno, who looked haggard and still slightly pale, greeted her with a smile.

Kalifa gently took off her glasses, her aura as a capable secretary instantly switching to the efficiency, coldness, and unique caution of an agent.

"Something has happened. The target, Ghost King Omar, is lost, and Commander Spandam and his warship have been completely wiped out!"

Blueno, who was wiping a wine glass, was stunned by the news:

"Omar again?"

"Does that mean the guys from CP6 and CP7 also lost?"

"Yes, they couldn't even withstand a single strike from that Ghost King!"

"I see..." Recalling the scene of their battle during the day, Blueno gave a bitter smile and said, "It's not surprising. After all, that's a blade capable of slaying Owl!"

After a moment of silence,

Kalifa asked:

"How is... Lucci?"

"Very bad..."

"I see..."
