Chapter 385: You Can't Escape, Navy
Chapter 385: You Can't Escape, Navy
The Vinsmoke Family, the most elite war clan in North Blue—saying they’re weak would be unthinkable.
Their technological prowess amplifies their combat power, allowing Gajeel to harness bloodline factor technology to genetically engineer his children into Superman-like beings. With unbreakable exoskeletons and the strength of transformers, they’ve become the pinnacle of power.
Lucius Kro only gained recognition at Marineford, and he’s not even an Admiral. Gajeel had initially planned to avoid entanglements with someone he assumed was merely Lucius Kro’s subordinate. But since this opponent won’t back down, he’ll simply leave him here.
Boom!
Smoke envelops Gajeel’s body. When he reappears, he’s clad in a dark yellow hooded cloak, his combat suit now a black trench coat. A spear materializes in his hand, its tip crackling with golden electricity as he points it at Kuro.
“Garuda! That’s Garuda’s combat suit!”
Klah exclaims as Gajeel transforms: “The Wicked Legion Commander’s armor from ‘Germa 66’—it can unleash golden electromagnetic energy!”
Why does this manga have to explain everything so clearly?!
Thud!
Suddenly, Gajeel’s feet erupt with a burst of air, propelling him skyward toward Kuro.
“Electromagnetic Thrust!”
The golden current intensifies at the spear’s tip as he lunges forward. But just as the attack closes in, Gajeel instinctively shifts sideways midair, raising his spear to block.
“Trying to ambush me? You’re not quite there yet!”
Crash!
A wisp-like figure rapidly expands, slamming a fist into his spear. The force sends Gajeel reeling, his body rocketing downward like a cannonball. Just before impact, he halts midair, hovering.
“This strength…”
Before he can fully process the shock, the figure dives down, aiming another punch.
Zzzzt!
Gajeel grips his spear, channeling golden electricity along its length as he swings it at the descending figure. But as the spear nears its target, the figure darts downward, its leg extending like a longsword. A kick slams into Gajeel’s chest. He grunts, flying backward dozens of meters before barely stopping.
Clutching his chest, his expression darkens as he spots his ambusher—a beautiful white-haired maiden bouncing through the air with Moonstep.
Lida tilts her head upward at Kuro: “Wow, hovering in midair? So convenient! Kuro, you’re not the only one who can fly anymore.”
Gajeel growls, “This woman…”
He’s wearing a combat suit, yet her raw strength surpasses his own. Even without bloodline factor enhancements, the suit’s power should be formidable—but it couldn’t withstand her strength!
“Such a stunning beauty!”
Yongzhi on the ground gazes at Lida, hearts forming in his eyes as he shouts: “Hey, you’re so gorgeous—how about being my woman?”
“Huh?” Lida blinks, turning toward him. Before she can reply, Kuro’s cold voice cuts in from above: “Klah.”
“Understood!”
Klah’s feet scuff the ground, his body blurring into a wispy afterimage as he dashes toward Yongzhi. Mid-dash, his afterimage suddenly expands, unleashing five radiant beams as he passes.
“Superspeed Shave—Wolf Claw!”
Klah appears beside Yongzhi, now a half-beast werewolf, his claws gleaming coldly as they slash forward.
Bang!
But an arm blocks his strike.
Yongzhi grabs Klah’s arm, grinning savagely: “Zoan?”
His other hand pulls back, forming a fist. A surge of pressurized air blasts from his gauntlet.
“Still useless! Winch Impact!”
The fist rockets forward, trailing air currents, aiming straight for Klah’s head.
Klah leaps back, pivoting his body. The punch nearly grazes his head, the air pressure forcing his eyes to squint.
“Winch Whip Kick!”
Missing his target, Yongzhi’s leg lashes out like a whip, trailing air currents.
“Moonstep!”
Klah springs upward, dodging the whip kick.
Thud!
But as he ascends, Yongzhi’s feet blast air, rocketing upward to meet him with a punch.
“Can you fly too?!”
Klah tenses, his palm clenching into a fist as he meets Yongzhi’s punch head-on.
“Iron Bodyfist Technique—Wolf’s Descent!”
Boom!!!
The pressurized jet punch collides with the ironclad fist, generating a shockwave. The two bodies separate—one soaring upward, abruptly halting midair to rebound, the other crashing down in a cloud of dust and debris. Yongzhi lifts his head, grinning savagely.
“This guy’s strength…”
Klah shakes his slightly numb arm, alarmed.
As a Zoan user, his strength is formidable, yet this opponent rivals Lida’s power—no, even exceeds hers. And that defensive capability…
Hitting him feels like striking steel.
“Hahahaha! Feeling numb?!”
Seeing Klah shake his arm, Gajeel boasts: “My children were engineered from embryos using ‘bloodline factor’ technology. Their exoskeletons are unbreakable, their skin shatters bullets. Ordinary attacks can’t harm them!”
“I don’t have time to play with you today—it’s my grand day! See that camera over there?”
Gajeel points his spear at a nearby camera: “I’ve set it to auto-shoot during this window—a photo of me defeating four kingdoms’ kings at once. This will declare the Vinsmoke’s return to North Blue! Let them know—the king of North Blue has returned!”
In his youth, Gajeel ruled North Blue. After conquering it, he foolishly tried to cross the Red Line to dominate East Blue. But during his attempt, North Blue’s people rebelled, toppling his rule.
How many years has it been since then? He’s bided his time, rebuilding his strength. Now, this is his perfect chance to reclaim North Blue—no Navy officer will derail it.
Timing this photo is a declaration of his overwhelming might, the power to dictate life and death. If ruined, it would be imperfect.
“Children, transform! Let this Navy officer witness the might of Vinsmoke!”
At Gajeel’s command, the Shanks Man sitting nearby smirks: “Honestly, can’t Father handle a little Navy officer alone? Fine, I’ll save time…”
He pulls out a cylindrical canister.
The Blue-haired Man sneers, retrieving his own canister: “Let’s just smash his face in.”
Leijiu sighs, drawing her canister: “What misfortune… You can’t escape, Navy.”
