Chapter 18

[T/N]~ Hi? Well here's the chapter. Thought I would be able to drop one yesterday but I forget to 😂

Enjoy~

______________________

This time Arata didn't argue with Tiger about his decision.

After all, Tiger was right. The Fishmen he wanted to save were in the most tightly guarded place of the Celestials. Moreover, he had Hancock and the others to save as well. The Celestials would definitely find out about it.

If he went to save the fishmen first, The Celestials would be alerted, and saving Hancock and the others later wouldn't be simple.

After discussing the rescue plan, Arata took the knife in his hand and walked in front of Tiger as he led the way.

Although he had been kept in a cage, He had watched the guards coming in and out every day so it could be said that he had a general understanding of the terrain here.

It didn't take long for Arata and Tiger to find the location of Hancock and the others.

Different from before, There was a team of guards who were guarding Hancock and the others.

And judging from the aura of his body, he was way stronger than the two helpless guys who had their necks twisted by Arata before.

"Where are your friends locked up?"

Tiger naturally also saw the team of nearly ten guards. But it seemed like that everyone was at the rank of a "Lieutenant", So Tiger didn't regard them seriously.

(Refer to the captain who went to the Sanji Sea Restaurant, the strength seems to be similar.)

After all, for people of this level, his "Fishmen karate" was all he needed.

"There are only eight people. I will go up and kill them. After I rescue your friends, I will save my compatriots."

Tiger patted his chest to ensure that, for these few people, he was completely fine. Arata didn't need to do anything at all, just wait here for him to come back.

"Tiger-san, are you sure that after you kill them, you won't be swarmed by the other guards of The Celestials?"

Arata looked at Tiger and continued: "If you kill them, and startle The Celestials. Then rescuing the Fishmen would be very difficult.

It was pretty obvious that saving people from unguarded enemies was way easier than saving them from guarded enemies.

"This..., it's not a problem to kill them, but it would be a bit difficult if you want me to kill them silently..."

Tiger was strong, but his "Fishman Karate" made a lot of sound. Not to mention other things, with his huge body, it was impossible to approach them silently.

"Then if I can let you approach them silently, at most how many can you kill at the same time?"

Arata gazed at Tiger with a frown. If Tiger's answer was no, or if they could only solve five or less at the same time, then he would have to change the plan.

It would be idiotic to continue forward if they couldn't kill all of them at the same time otherwise everyone else would be warned. Then every guard on The Holy Land would be after them.

"If the distance is enough, it should be no problem to kill six people at the same time."

Tiger thought for a while and said, he didn't think about it too much. If he can come to save people alone, Then his choice would most like be reckless.

After all, The Fishmen weren't good at using their brains, they rely on their strength!

"That's okay, I can solve the remaining two at the same time as well."

Arata was by no means weak at all it's just that his safety came first. Although in the original book, Tiger indeed died, His actions of saving the slaves of The Holy Land shocked the whole world.

But how many slaves escaped? and how many died? No one knew. Tiger helped all the slaves but it was impossible for everyone to escape from The Holy Land. It was more likely that more people died than those that escaped.

And Arata didn't want to bet. He was not a Protagonist and his luck was by no means outstanding. Thus, It was always right to be cautious.

Then, Arata used his powers to control the flow of the wind and wrapped it around the feet of himself and Tiger, making their steps as light as feathers.

The ability that Arata showed startled Tiger again in an instant because he knew that Swordsmen couldn't display such abilities unless,

.

.

.

Devil Fruit!

Not only did he become an Expert Swordsman at such a young age, but he had also eaten the treasure of the sea!?

And judging from this ability, it was very likely that it belonged to the most precious [Nature Series] among the "devil fruits"!

Arata naturally didn't know what Tiger was thinking at the moment, otherwise, he would resolutely refute it.

His power was quite versatile but compared to the devil fruits that could affect nature itself, it was like comparing heaven and earth.

The upper limit of each "devil fruit" was extremely high, as long as it was developed properly, it would be easy to divide the mountains and the sea.

As for his superpowers? Well, he'd rather not discuss about them.

If it weren't for the "Yasuo" card, and his ability to control the wind. His power would be useless in the current situation.

In this way, Arata and Tiger easily came behind them without the guards noticing them.

"Fishman Karate·Shoot!"

After Tiger came to a certain distance, he raised a sea of ​​water with his hands and quickly punched out the raised water with his fists.

The splashing water, under the action of a huge force, exploded with power comparable to that of bullets.

The six guards that stood in front were shot all over the place in an instant, and they directly died due to the impact.

The other two guards stood a bit too far away, Tiger's attack hit them but it was obviously not powerful enough to kill them.

But just when they wanted to warn others that an intruder had attacked, another dark figure quickly approached them from behind.

Arata quietly appeared behind one of them and instantly slashed his neck with the sword he had just built with the wind.

"Wind Slash!"

Another person, who was about to alert the other was approached by Arata with an unbelievable speed but before he could make a move his head flew off.

At this point, the eight guards were silently assassinated, Arata and Tiger.

Things went pretty smoothly, mainly thanks to the darkness of the night. Moreover, these guards were too lax since they never expected someone to attack.

They would never think that someone would be so daring to make trouble with The Celestials.

This was also why they were able to kill them so easily even though they were at the level of "Lieutenants".

Luffy made them seem quite easy to beat, but a "Lieutenant" level existence wasn't a joke, It was no problem for someone at that level to deal with the pirates who have a bounty of several million belis.

What happened outside naturally attracted the attention of the detained slaves. When they saw the guards who had fallen in a pool of blood, they were all dumbfounded.

The guards of The Celestials were actually killed!?

"Arata, go find your friends let's quickly save them and quickly leave to save my people."

Tiger looked at the bustling and enthusiastic slaves, knowing that if this went on, even if the guards could not warn the others they would be attracted by the noise here.

"Arata? I... Are you really here to save us?"

Before Arata could start finding Hancock, Hancock in the iron cage, hearing Arata's name, quickly looked for Arata's figure with her precious little eyes.
