One Piece: Three Fruits, Starting with the Dark-Dark Fruit

The sturdy man is Lingling's tenth son, Charlotte Cracker.

Buggy's two daggers were almost curled, but they still couldn't cause even a little damage to Cracker's biscuit armor. However, Cracker couldn't hurt him either, because he had become the user of the Four-Split Fruit, which was specifically designed to defeat those who played with swords.

But Cracker was not stupid. After fighting for a while, he found that the slashes with added domineering power were ineffective against Buggy, so he immediately switched to using a shield and hit Buggy directly in the face with the shield.

Two streams of blood spurted out of Buggy's round red nose. Seeing that Cracker raised the shield again, he was so scared that he used the "Emergency Escape" skill directly, splitting his body into several pieces and scattering them.

Cracker's attack missed, and taking advantage of this opportunity, Shanks appeared from behind him and slashed Cracker's neck with a knife.

Shanks increased the output of Armament Haki this time, but the effect was still unsatisfactory. The knife only left a shallow mark on the back of Cracker's neck.

But this also made Shanks realize that something was wrong. The place where he cut was clearly the exposed skin of Cracker, and it was not covered by the armament color. According to common sense, if such a mark was cut on the skin, at least some blood should be shed.

But he only saw some yellow crumbs, which seemed to be flour or something like that.

Cracker touched the back of his neck, turned to look at Shanks, and said,

"Red-haired devil, are you tickling me?"

In fact, Cracker is only six years older than Shanks, but Shanks develops more slowly and still looks like a child compared to the bearded and tall Cracker.

Shanks hated being called the red-haired brat, so he slashed at Cracker with his knife. Cracker simply gave up resisting and let Shanks chop him.

After chopping for a long time, apart from some biscuit crumbs falling off Cracker's body, nothing happened. Instead, Shanks was very tired.

Buggy's upper body floated in the air and he shouted to Shanks,

"Don't attack Shanks. We can't break this guy's defense. Let Uncle Rayleigh deal with him! Eh? Where's Uncle Rayleigh?!"

Buggy looked around below, but Rayleigh had disappeared long ago.

Shanks ignored Buggy. An evil force surged in his heart. Veins bulged on the hand holding the knife. The armament color on the knife became stronger and gave off a metallic luster.

Compared with before, the intensity of this armed color is obviously one level higher.

Cracker raised his eyebrows and said,

"That's interesting, little red-haired devil. You are quite talented!"

Shanks said with a stern face,

"You are just a coward, stop judging me!"

Shanks has an extremely high combat IQ. He has already guessed that Cracker must have hidden his true form in the biscuits, and even his appearance is fake!

Not to mention, Cracker was really broken by the word "coward", and an angry look appeared on his face.

He raised the long sword he called "Pretzel" and rushed towards Shanks, shouting,

"Asshole! I'm going to chop you into pieces!"

Shanks was not panicked at all. The calmer he was, the more conducive it was to the use of his Observation Haki. He predicted the trajectory of Krieger's attack in advance, dodged it, and stabbed Krieger in the side of his waist with a knife.

Then, with the tip of the knife as the center, dense cracks appeared on the surrounding biscuits. The next second, accompanied by a crisp cracking sound, the biscuit armor completely shattered, revealing the true face of the cracker, a young man with purple hair and a sinister and cold face.

Buggy in the sky shouted in surprise,

"Well done Shanks!!!"

As he said that, Buggy leaned down, raised his two swords and slashed at Cracker, who had revealed his true form.

Shanks flipped his wrist and changed the stab into a sweep. Cracker tightened his waist and the armed color instantly covered his waist. In response to Buggy's attack, he just slashed with his knife and knocked the latter away.

However, the strength of Shanks' Armament Haki has now reached a higher level. Cracker has temporarily lost the defense of the biscuit armor. His Armament Haki alone is not enough to block Shanks' attack without any injury, and a cut was made on his waist.

Cracker was afraid of pain to begin with, and this one made him grimace in pain.

After forcing Shanks back with a knife, Cracker stepped aside and touched the wound on his waist. When he saw the blood on his palm, the expression on his face suddenly became extremely ferocious.

He raised his head and stared at Shanks, laughing in anger.

"Okay, okay! I wanted to play with you two little brats for a while longer, but now it seems there is no need. I want to make you experience true despair!"

After saying that, Cracker immediately stuck the pretzel into the ground next to him. Buggy flew back and approached Shanks, teasing him,

"Hey Shanks, why did that guy throw away his weapon? Is he trying to surrender?"

Shanks did not get carried away by injuring Cracker. He frowned and never took his eyes off the Cracker opposite him. He said in a deep voice,

"Bucky, that guy is not that simple. The battle is not over yet. Don't be distracted! This is..."

Bucky pouted and interrupted directly,

"Okay! Are you going to say this is Uncle Rayleigh's teaching again?"

"Do not."

Shanks shook his head slowly, the image of the young figure wearing the cloak of justice appearing in his mind.

"This is what Black Dragon taught me!"

Bucky's face froze and he muttered,

"Well, you two are having an affair..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Buggy suddenly shuddered, and all the hairs on his body stood up. He felt as if he was being stared at by some terrifying existence.

On the top of the tower in the distance, Jiger slowly lowered his finger, with a faint arc of electricity still remaining on his fingertips, and shook his head and said,

"Forget it. If I kill him, I'm afraid this kid will cry."

Back to Shanks, Cracker put down his weapon and suddenly started clapping, which made Shanks and Buggy confused.

However, the expressions of the two men froze on their faces soon, because along with Cracker's applause, a large number of strong men wearing biscuit armor suddenly appeared from behind him, and each of them was wearing exactly the same as Cracker just now.

Cracker grinned fiercely and controlled all the cookie men to rush forward together.

Shanks and Buggy had no choice but to fight, but what was most difficult for them to accept was that the defense of these biscuit men was almost as good as the previous ones.

Bucky's body was chopped into pieces by the cookie man, and he cursed,

"Damn it! What kind of fruit is this? What a ridiculous ability!!!"
