The gourmet among pirates

"war!"

"plague!"

"famine!"

"die!"

While Ace wanted to catch all four Apocalypse Knights in front of him.

The four Apocalypse Knights opposite him also wanted to completely eliminate Ace, the unrest factor that planned to hinder the development of the Moonlight Church.

Ace's strength is strong.

The Famine Knight knew this personally, and the other Apocalypse Knights who rushed over in a hurry also had a general understanding of Ace's strength due to Samda's special emphasis.

powerful!

It can even be said to be very strong.

The Famine Knight is the strongest among the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, except for the War Knight.

Even if they are involved in a protracted war with the Famine Knights, even the strongest warrior may not be Famine's opponent.

But such a powerful Perkins was easily suppressed by Ace even if he used the Famine Domain.

Even if Her Royal Highness the Saint hadn't arrived in time, maybe it would be now.

It wasn't the four of them who teamed up to deal with Ace.

But...

Deal with Perkins, who was swallowed by the source of famine and turned into a monster.

However, according to Samuda's intelligence, although Ace was extremely powerful and easily suppressed the Hungry Knight Perkins, he was initially pushed back a few steps by Perkins.

And he fought with Perkins for a long time.

From this point of view, they believe that although Ace is stronger than Perkins, he is not invincible.

Now that the four Knights of the Apocalypse have gathered together, their abilities complement each other, and their combat effectiveness is not simply increased by 4 times.

Suddenly, the four Apocalypse Knights of the Moonlight Church took action.

The four abilities of war, plague, famine, and death are criss-crossed, and in conjunction with the powerful offensive of the four Apocalypse Knights, they are killing Ace.

However, facing this offensive that was like a dragnet that blocked all his escape routes, Ace didn't care.

Instead, he put the famous sword "Deadwood" in his hand back into the scabbard with his backhand, and then grinned.

"Use more to defeat less? Hehe, I'm not afraid of siege, Jing Huoyan!"

The moment Ace's voice fell.

On Ace's right arm, a large piece of blazing flame suddenly shot out, directly forming a fire curtain around Ace, blocking the swarming attacks.

"Do you think the flames can block our faith?! Naive!"

The voice of the war knight came from outside the flames, and then a terrifying fist wind came suddenly, blasting away the flames in an instant.

"War Shock!"

The war knight forcibly blasted out a passage in the fire curtain, rushed through the flames, and came to Ace. With a cold face, he raised his right hand wrapped in armor and punched Ace at a speed like a violent storm. Generally, overwhelming.

"Not bad strength, but no matter how powerful it is, it's useless if it can't hit someone!"

At the same time that the war knight's violent fists fell on Ace, the elemental ability of the natural burning fruit was activated.

Every punch of the War Knight landed on Ace's body, easily penetrating Ace's body, forming a whirlpool of flames.

But the moment the war knight's fist left Ace's body.

The flames burned past, the flame vortex subsided, and Ace's pierced body also returned to its original state.

Unscathed!

"how is this possible!"

After seeing this scene, the war knight was shocked and could hardly believe what he saw.

On the other hand, Ace, after seeing the surprised look on the war knight's face, said somewhat strangely: "You... it seems you don't even know about the elementalization ability of natural fruits."

"You don't even know this, how do you get the confidence to kill me?"

At the moment when the war knight was shocked and his mind was shaken, Ace put his right hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist, let out a low shout, and suddenly drew the sword out of its sheath.

"One-knife flow · Iai!"

Under the illumination of the fire, a bright half-moon-shaped sword energy bloomed from the dead wood that reflected the red light of the flames, and slashed hard at the war knight in front of Ace.

This sword energy, both in terms of speed and sharpness on the sword edge, is far superior to the previous ones. The sword energy seems to be cutting everything in front of it in two!

Facing this sudden and terrifying sword, the War Knight's expression suddenly changed.

At such a close distance, Ace didn't have any room to dodge. He could only cross his hands on his chest, trying to resist Ace's sword with the arm guards on his wrists.

laugh! !

A red sword light flashed and blood splattered everywhere.

The war knight's armguards made of fine steel were almost as yellow as clay under Ace's sword, and they were easily cut off!

The pair of fine steel armguards, together with the two arms of the war knight, were all broken by Ace's sword. Because the speed was too fast, blood spattered everywhere, but he didn't even feel the pain!

boom!

The sword light that cut off the two arms of the War Knight continued to hit the War Knight's chest with unabated force.

Just when Ace's sword was about to disembowel the war knight, a powerful wave erupted from his body, blasting away the sword that almost penetrated the war knight's body.

"sharp."

The war knight looked at his broken arm at the wrist, and after uttering a word, he finally no longer had any sense of contempt, took a deep breath, and said:

"It seems I still underestimate you, Fire Sword Ace..."

The next moment Ace's attention was attracted by the war knight.

In the shadow of a flame, a death scythe composed of the power of death silently extinguished the layers of flames and came behind Ace.

"Invincible!"

At the same time, the war knight did not care about his severed arms and the blood spurting out.

After whispering a slogan, a layer of rich golden light suddenly appeared on his body, and his legs carried the golden light as fast as lightning and attacked Ace.

After seeing that normal attacks were ineffective against Ace, he relied on his powerful war wisdom.

The War Knight instantly understood the horror of the elemental ability, as well as the only ability in his body that could cause harm to Ace.

Since the physical body cannot resist the elementalization of natural fruits, then use "ability" to fight against abilities!

After realizing this.

The war knight calmly used words to distract Ace, and cooperated with the death knight to launch a sneak attack.

"Are you trying to make a fool of yourself in the east or attack the west? Haha, this is of no use to me!"

Ace, who had his back to the Death Scythe, didn't even turn his eyes as he shot out two pillars of fire from his feet, shooting Ace into the air.

Then he slashed out with a sword in his backhand!

Ace, who possesses the domineering aura of knowledge and knowledge, has a clear understanding of the attacks of these four Knights of the Apocalypse.

While accompanying the war knights in their plans, Ace's eyes had long been fixed on the silent guy, the death knight.

Compared to the abilities of several other Apocalypse Knights, Ace was most afraid of the abilities of this Death Knight.

Ding! !

Ace swung his sword and directly blocked the black sickle composed of the power of death.

The intersection of swords is obviously a collision between reality and nothingness, but it emits a crisp chirping sound.

Although the black sickle condensed from the power of death was not a real thing, it was not damaged at all in the collision with the famous sword "Deadwood".

And during the contact, a deep chill also passed through the scythe and quickly spread to Ace's hand holding the knife.

"With this cold aura, no wonder I feel uncomfortable when I look at you, that's it!"

The words fall.

A flame suddenly burst out from Ace's sword edge.

"Be careful!!"

Without the help of others, at the moment when the flames burst out, the death knight immediately realized the difference between Ace and the guys he had fought before.

Can······

Before the death knight could retreat, the blazing flames swept through him and engulfed him instantly.

It all happened almost instantly.

When the war knights, glowing with golden light, arrived behind them, the death knights were already enveloped in flames.

When the war knight saw this scene, the killing intent in his eyes almost solidified.

"war!"

"Have you become smarter?"

When Ace saw the flashing golden light on the War Knight, although Ace didn't know what the golden light was for, he also knew that it was a manifestation of the use of a certain ability.

Without Armament Haki, ordinary physical attacks cannot damage the elemental form of the natural Devil Fruit.

But the ability of another devil fruit is obviously not among them.

Even though Ace was confident in his own strength, he obviously didn't want to be touched by this unknown ability.

"Fire Sword·Liao·····Ahem·····Ahem·····Ahem·····"

Just when Ace wanted to use his sword to force the war knight back, or kill him on the spot!

There was suddenly an uncontrollable itching sensation in his throat.

It was as if there were thousands of kittens clawing at his throat like crazy!

The uncontrollable itching directly interrupted Ace's offensive, causing him to cough violently.

And every time he coughed, Ace felt a burning pain coming from his lungs.

Every time he coughed, Ace felt as if he was getting weaker.

Worse yet.

At this time, a thunderous roar also came from Ace's belly.

A feeling of weakness and weakness, accompanied by an unbearable hunger, instantly filled Ace's heart.

Adding the two together.

Faced with the golden kick of the war knight, Ace had to switch from offense to defense, with the horizontal sword blocked in front of him.

boom!

next second.

Ace was like a kite with a broken string, and was sent flying backwards by the war knight's kick.

"war!"

As Ace flew backwards, the war knight roared!

Suddenly, a golden halo spread out from the war knight's body.

In the blink of an eye, it covered a radius of a hundred meters.

Under the golden light.

The auras of the Famine Knights, Plague Knights and Death Knights not far away suddenly increased sharply.

next second.

The Famine Knight and Plague Knight, whose strength had greatly increased, broke through Ace's fire curtain and attacked Ace from the left and right wings as he flew backwards.

Behind Ace, surrounded by flames, he seemed to have turned into a pyro death knight, and the power of death on his body spurted out, immediately extinguishing the flames on his body.

The moment the flames went out, the Death Scythe in his hand swung towards the void.

Suddenly, a gray sword light exuding the aura of death struck from Ace's back at lightning speed.

···········

"Ahem... Is this feeling of weakness caused by the superposition of disease and hunger? Plague Knight, Famine Knight, what a terrifying combination!"

"Coupled with the cold and strange power of death, and the power of war that seems to amplify yourself and others!"

"The four abilities complement each other. When superimposed on each other, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are really powerful and terrifying!"

"If I'm not careful, even I might fall into these methods, but this feeling is what I want!"

"I'm already... on fire!"

For a long, long time, Ace has never experienced this feeling of life hanging by a thread!

At this moment, the fighting spirit was as high as ever, burning like a blazing fire.

With his will burning, Ace felt as if the blood all over his body was boiling.

Facing the attacks that swept in from all directions.

Ace opened his mouth and bit "Deadwood"'s shoulder, and then, with a "swish", a ball of golden-red flames appeared in his hands.

"Great Flame Ring: Emperor Yan!!!"

Circle after circle of spiral flames spread out from under Ace in an instant. In the blink of an eye, the golden-red flames enveloped Ace.

boom! ! !

The terrifying temperature suddenly spread!

The golden-red flame, wrapped in a monstrous heat, suddenly swept across all directions with Ace as the center!

Even the void was distorted by the heat.

"Ok?"

The four knights of the Apocalypse, who were attacking Ace from four different directions, suddenly changed their expressions when they saw this.

Although they had seen the power of fire displayed by Ace just now, the terrifying heat that suddenly erupted from Ace's body at this moment was completely different from before.

The attacks launched by the four of them were engulfed by the golden-red flames before they even got close to Ace, without even splashing a single wave!

The four knights of the Apocalypse saw the terrifying golden-red flames and retreated without hesitation.

But even so, the hair on their bodies was directly burned and curled up under the heat wave of the golden red flames, and there was even a faint smell of burning in the air.

The metal objects on the four of them were even more frighteningly hot at this moment.

It was faintly red, like a red-hot iron sticking to their flesh, making a sizzling sound.

A heat wave swept over them, and the moisture on the four Horsemen of the Apocalypse seemed to have been evaporated. Even their lips became dry and cracked.

Even though they were pushed back nearly a hundred meters, they still felt unable to resist the terrifying heat!

What shocked them even more was...
