Chapter 236 Interesting Ability
Nicholas, having arrived at the Celestial Dragon Residence, immediately sensed the sharp aura that swept through the entire Holy Land the moment the Five Elders made their move.
"Not bad luck, huh."
Nicholas, with his back to the direction of the powerful aura, stood on a building within the luxurious Courtyard, looking down at Saint Sommerfield who was being protected by a group of guards.
"Y-You!!! How could you be here!?"
Saint Sommerfield's eyes widened, staring in disbelief at Nicholas standing on top of the Courtyard building.
Compared to Saint Sommerfield's overreaction, his surrounding guards all looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
As guards of the Celestial Dragons, they had seen many guys who wanted to eliminate these swine, but most of those guys chose to ambush the Celestial Dragons outside of Mary Geoise.
Considering the explosion that occurred in Mary Geoise, it was clear that this guy was different from those before. And most importantly, many guards recognized Nicholas's Status. If a guy of this level really wanted to eliminate Sommerfield, they wouldn't be able to stop him at all.
Just then, a Lackey beside Saint Sommerfield was about to angrily reprimand Nicholas for his impolite behavior when he saw Nicholas make a shushing gesture, lightly placing his index finger in front of his lips.
But how could this stop a Loyal Dog's mouth? When else would he show his loyalty if not now?
"You impolite Weapon, do you know who is in front of you? How dare you stand higher tha-"
Nicholas naturally knew that some people's servility was already ingrained in their bones.
Therefore, he directly struck down this yapping Weapon with Lightning.
Chi!
Finger Pistol tore through the Air. Almost the moment Nicholas made his move, the guards beside Saint Sommerfield also took action one after another.
Even knowing they were no match, they had to fight to the death. After all, if something happened to Saint Sommerfield, they wouldn't be able to survive either.
Nicholas directly extended his Palm. As his Palm moved, afterimages were left in the Sky, and then he easily scattered all the Finger Pistols that were shot at him like bullets.
Immediately, his Gaze shifted, looking towards the person who revealed himself from the Shadow of the Corridor.
It was a person about two meters tall, completely shrouded in a white robe, with a full-coverage clown Mask on his face.
"CP0? Their Action is quite fast."
"Nicholas!"
A hoarse female voice came from under the Mask, her Tone revealing obvious solemnity.
"A woman?"
Hearing the hoarse voice, Nicholas revealed a curious expression. After all, the people in CP0, the World Government's Sharp Blade, all had their own special skills. He just didn't know if this woman in front of him was like Stussy or had other special Abilities.
Chi!
"Ah, really?"
Flying in the Sky, his upper Body looked at the pitch-black Wall that suddenly appeared at his waist. Nicholas couldn't help but let out a surprised Sound. In the eyes of outsiders, Nicholas's Body was cut in two from the middle by a Wall out of nowhere.
Looking at her successful move, a smile of triumph appeared on the CP0 Member's face. To a certain extent, her Ability was almost unsolvable. Anyone could be eliminated by her if they were careless.
"Interesting! Is this your Ability? But it seems to have usage restrictions."
Boom, as the Armament Haki covering it dissipated, the Wall heavily smashed onto the Ground. In mid-air, Electric Current surged around Nicholas's waist, and his Form was restored.
Almost at the instant he was cut in half, Nicholas's Observation Haki frantically issued a warning, so he entered Elementalization State in advance, avoiding this killing move.
Seeing this scene, an unbelievable expression appeared in the CP0's Eyes. However, reacting quickly, she swiftly raised her leg and kicked out a Tempest Kick towards Nicholas who was rushing over.
The azure Slash Wave that left her leg suddenly transformed into hundreds of finger-sized rhombus Slashes in mid-air, completely blocking Nicholas's attack route.
"Tsk, you Cipher Pol really play Six Styles in a fancy way."
Countless azure light spots were reflected in Nicholas's Eyes. Then, he directly Elementalized, allowing these rhombus Slashes to pierce through his Body.
In an instant, Nicholas had already arrived in front of this CP0 Member. At the same time, he extended his Right Hand covered in Armament Haki, directly grabbed the CP0's Mask, and pressed her hard onto the Ground.
Bang!
Accompanied by a roar, the Ground beneath the CP0 instantly sank, and spiderweb-like Cracks rapidly spread out in all directions.
Crack, crack, crack.
Accompanied by the Sound of shattering, the clown Mask worn on her face also shattered, revealing a face that was ordinary to the point of being unremarkable when placed in a crowd.
Feeling the pressure from Nicholas, the woman who was pressed on the Ground did not hesitate at all. She decisively made a palm into a Sword and rapidly covered it with Armament Haki, slashing towards Nicholas's neck at the fastest Speed.
"Making small Actions in front of me is not a good habit. Lightning Binding!"
Along with Nicholas's voice, this female CP0 only felt a chill run through her heart.
At the moment she became alert, powerful Electric Current, as if it had Life, instantly bound her tightly to the Ground.
Along with the surge of Electric Current on her Body, she clearly felt a tightness in her lower Body, followed by a warm current flowing out.
Obviously, under the stimulation of Lightning, her Body gave the most instinctive Reaction.
"Stop struggling. From the moment you were approached by me, this Battle was already over."
Nicholas slowly said.
"You…"
The female CP0 Member's face changed. She had just uttered a Word, and hadn't even finished a sentence when her Eyes went dark, and she fainted on the spot.
Looking at the fainted CP0 Member, Nicholas was not in a hurry to eliminate her. Instead, after eliminating all the guards, he reached out and grabbed a plate of Fruit from a Room nearby and placed it on the female CP0's Body.
Looking at the female CP0 who had lost Resistance, a wave surged from Nicholas's Body, rapidly enveloping the Space around the female CP0.
Then, he directly pierced through her chest with a Thunder Longsword, and the wave enveloping the CP0 began to rapidly shrink.
"Can it succeed?"
Thinking of the feasibility he had discussed with Vegapunk, a hint of anticipation couldn't help but appear on Nicholas's face. If it really worked, then it would be too interesting.
While conducting the test, Nicholas also raised his hand and summoned a Lightning Rope, tying Saint Sommerfield into a ball.
"I wonder how Brook is doing."
Nicholas muttered to himself softly.
The reason he chose to bring Brook this time was because of Brook's powerful survivability. It could be said that as long as Brook didn't court death, there was no need to worry about safety issues at all.
Under the perception of his powerful Observation Haki, Nicholas could sense powerful Aura approaching from a distance.
Obviously, the other party had already discovered the abnormality here.
"Let me see, tsk tsk, Vegapunk that guy is really a genius."
Nicholas ignored the increasingly close and hurried Footsteps, looking at a Banana in the plate of Fruit whose Form was gradually changing, a smile appeared on his face.
When the Banana's Form completely changed and vortex-like patterns appeared, Nicholas carefully put it away. Then, he directly picked up Saint Sommerfield who was tied into a ball. Lightning flashed behind him, constructing Lightning Wings, and then he directly soared into the Sky.
As soon as he reached the Sky, the first thing that caught his eye were two huge Mushroom Clouds that were slowly dissipating.
And the Holy Land Mary Geoise was already ablaze with Fire. And whether it was an Accident or not, the Wind today was particularly noisy. With the Wind fueling the Fire, the Fire was unexpectedly impossible to contain for a while.
"This Wind is a bit strange."
Nicholas couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Almost without Nicholas even noticing, in a Corner in the distance, a hand holding a Camera aimed at Nicholas.
Slightly adjusting the angle, framing the Town filled with Dust Cloud and the Enemies chasing after him in groups in the Sky, as well as the panicked Saint Sommerfield hanging in the Sky, into Nicholas's background, and then pressed the Shutter.
"Click!"
The Camera Shutter was pressed, recording this moment that was enough to detonate the Grand Line.
After the Photo was taken, the photographer also deliberately turned the Camera Lens Cap over to take a look. After all, if he forgot to open the Camera Lens Cap and failed to take the Photo, his commission would be ruined.
