The Hidden Personality?

"Kid, you're overly arrogant!" With its red eyes, the giant rhinoceros exploded with a terrifying speed equivalent to anything, running through the destruction of the ground towards Longinus.

In the face of Alex's savage ramming, Longinus leaped into the air casually, surprisingly landing just right on the rhino's back.

The first thing that happened was that Alex was stunned, followed by enormous humiliation, which caused him to jump wildly and try to throw Longinus off his back. Still, Longinus' legs were as steady as a rock, as if they were planted on his back, making Alex struggle futile.

Taking advantage of an opening under Alex's violent rampage, Longinus hammered a punch into Alex's vulnerable eyes.

"MOOO!"

The rhino screamed in pain, no longer daring to maintain its animal form, and instantly transformed into its human-beast form, looking like a monstrous minotaur with horns growing on its nose.

Longinus instead took advantage of the momentum to land on the ground. Before Alex had time to adjust to the impact of the difference in size change, he kicked Alex's waist with his long legs like a whip, sending him flying hundreds of meters across the field, breaking countless trees along the way before he could stop.

"Gulp!" The attacking pirate swallowed hard, shivers rising in their hearts, was not even the transformed captain a match for that brat?

"Ahhhh!" Alex's eyes became scarlet, and his nostrils breathed out a trail of white mist, and it was clear that he was already furious to the extreme.

Seeing Alex even attacked again, Longinus also frowned slightly. The Zoan Devil Fruit in the early stage was adding too much to the character, this Alex even more fully obtained the gift of the giant rhinoceros skin and thick flesh, no wonder he was able to escape under the numerous marine arrests.

Even in his semi-beast form, Alex was more than three meters in size, with a body of huge muscles like cast steel, as if a marble puppet was trampling the earth when he ran.

But the berserk minotaur was as powerless as an origami toy in front of Longinus, who first kicked him in the knee and then came in with a massive force at his waist, leaving him on only half a knee on the ground roaring with rage.

The Devil's Fruit, while giving Alex physical aptitude, apparently did little to enhance his agility, so much so that Longinus toyed him.

With his arms crossed over his face to protect it, and his fierce eyes in the shadows flashing, Alex took advantage of the moment when Longinus kicked him in the chest to force down the blood from his throat and grab Longinus with large bushel-like hands.

However, Alex was fighting to the death. He knew that his advantage was losing. Even if it had to trade a hundred injuries for one chance, it was worth it. Moreover, even if it were a comparison of physical strength and exhaustion, he would never think that the kid on the other side would beat his beast abilities.

Alex crossed his arms over his face to protect it, and his shadowed eyes flashed fiercely. Unexpectedly taking advantage of the moment when Longinus kicked him in the chest, swallowed his foul-sweet blood in his throat forcefully, and grabbed Longinus with his giant bushy hands.

"Brat, I got you!" Alex grabs both of Longinus's fists as if he was wrestling with him on his half knees.

"No, I'm the one who caught you!" One by one, Longinus was breaking free from his restraints like an arm wrestling to keep his enemy's hand down.

"Your power...how did..." Alex widened his mouth as if he was trying to hide the shock inside by acting exaggerated.

"WHOOSH!" A silver bullet passed over Longinus's face.

"Nice shot of a sniper, any other cards in the deck?" It was as if he had eyes in the back of his head, and as the sniper rounds continued to approach the end of his head with their angled trails, Longinus dodged the sure-shot by rolling his head sharply to the side.

"That's impossible, that's impossible, how the hell did you do that?" Alex's eyes have bulged, and it was no longer possible to hide his fears.

If the previous shock was to weaken Longinus' guard and create an opportunity for the sniper, Alex was now genuinely unable to believe his own eyes. How could anyone anticipate the danger behind him? That sniper round had just been fired from a deadly angle!

Quincy, who was supposedly trained as a swordsman but became a sniper, couldn't believe it. How could anyone remain calm during a battle with the captain when his sniper rifle was a high-grade product from the North Blue and his bullets entirely muffled?

Quincy, under tremendous pressure, actually shot all the bullets from his gun in one go to vent his frustration.

However,

"Interrupting my battle... it's a death sentence for you!" Longinus easily dodged all the bullets and even looked over his shoulder to glance at him with a sideways glance.

Like gazed upon by the death, Quincy felt the blood freeze in his body, but it was under the attention of all the pirates and townspeople, dropped his sniper rifle, and fled in panic.

Alex nearly exploded with anger, his co-captain was so untrustworthy, but the kid was still in his hand... wait, why did he seem to be flying through the sky?

"Vice-Captain, watch out!"

"Quincy-sama, I'm worried about the hidden weapon!"

Hearing his subordinate pirates' screams, Quincy couldn't help but look back, before contracting his pupils intensely, this was the world's most despicable and vicious hidden weapon, the Asteroid Missile!

The Asteroid, which was thrown at incredible speed by Longinus, producing great kinetic energy thanks to its mass and momentum, was no less than a solid cannonball in the crowd's eyes.

"No... going to... ah..."

BOOM!

The Asteroid Missile hit its target perfectly and crushed Quincy directly to the point of crushing him into a perfectly round meat pie, leaving everyone there horrified enough to swallow their saliva.

Getting up, Alex saw Quincy's gruesome death and was driven with fear to retreat.

"Kid, you're good, so I'll let you off this time!" Alex said, turning and retreating to the coast.

"You want to leave after killing so many people and just lower your harsh words?" That gentle voice sounded behind itself, but it made Alex's body frozen.

"Kid, don't be impudent, you're not bad, but you're still not good enough to kill me, at worst I'll spend a day and a night with you, and then we'll see who dies first?" Alex's anger in his heart pushed back over the fear.

"Eliminate all evils, that's what I learned a long time ago!"

Longinus rushed up again, though still holding Alex the same way he had before, but another attempt on his part to stumble and recover instead gave Alex confidence.

"Idiot, I already told you, you can't kill me!" Alex smiled sarcastically and threatened, "Just you wait, until your stamina runs out, I'll kill those pigs one by one in front of your eyes before I end your life!"

Longinus' figure stopped suddenly and said quietly, "Haven't you noticed the changes around you yet?"

An unknown reason, after hearing Longinus' quiet voice, Alex had the chills rise in his heart, as if the gentle and easy-going brat from before had suddenly changed into a new person, like some evil spirit emerging from hell.

Calming himself, Alex looked around and noticed that the two men's battlefield had changed without anyone noticing to the sea.

"So that's where you come in? While it is true that the sea is the nemesis of those with abilities, I am not so stupid as to be forced into the sea by you." Thinking that he could see through his enemy's thoughts, Alex was instead relieved.

Seeing Longinus charged up without a word, Alex defended his eyes proficiently, apparently ready to maximize his hit-and-run tactics.

When suddenly, a sharp pain hit him, Alex couldn't help but look down and was horrified to find that a longsword had pierced through his chest.

"Idiot, I mean, when we get here...no one will find out my secret!" Longinus's voice whispered in Alex's ear.

"You...why... "Alex couldn't understand why that brat had an extra sword out of nowhere, why the skin of a giant rhinoceros that bullets couldn't even penetrate was as easy to pierce just like white paper?

However, he could not ask any of these questions anymore as his body fell to the ground, and blood leaked into the markings, devouring even his soul, the sword shining with a bright scarlet.
