"One Piece" Events:
[Sabaody Archipelago, Grove 27, Harbor]
"Run away! Run away!! Kizaru's here!!" "Hey, did you hear me!?" "Even the Shichibukai are on the move!" "Really!? Who is it!!?"
Pirates continued to desperately flee from the clutches of the Admiral and the Shichibukai.
...
[Grove 24]
While some others fought to survive,
"Zeeh... Zeeh...!!"
Another Supernova, Monk Urouge, wielded a large steel column and fought against Bartholomew Kuma, who was supposed to be engaging Kidd and Law at the moment.
"... All this time, I was just looking out for the Admiral...!!"
Urouge was bleeding from his head, indicating the fierceness of the battle he faced.
"Looks like it won't be so easy to get away... when I'm right by the Marine Headquarters...!!!"
Kuma: "..."
Sky Island of Birka:
"It seems Urouge is in trouble..."
"This... How?"
"Isn't Bartholomew Kuma currently fighting both the Heart Pirates and Kidd Pirates? So why is the monk also fighting against Kuma?"
"Weird..."
"Yes, things are getting stranger..." This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.
"Could it be that Law and Kidd were perhaps defeated so quickly?"
"That's unlikely... Maybe they managed to escape his grip somehow."
"Not that or this... Look here, they are still fighting the same Kuma that Urouge-sama is fighting."
Urouge paid no attention to the rumors swirling around him, focusing entirely on his own battle scene.
"Hehe~ It seems I'm struggling... Shichibukai, huh? Interesting."
...
Sorbet Kingdom, South Blue:
"He's as strong as a legendary hunter in the Hunters Guild!"
"No, you fool... He's as strong as the top three ranks in the Hunters Guild!"
Archa-san's heart trembled as she saw Hawkins kicked in the head at the speed of light...
"Don't worry... The probability of death is 0%... My counterpart in the manga won't die."
"Look at this... This is the power I've never wanted to reveal..."
"Sigh~ Now everyone can easily figure it out."
Little Hawkins could only let out a sigh after witnessing the next scene.
[Grove 27, Harbor]
"GYAAAHH!!!" Someone screamed as their head exploded, blood splattering, and they fell lifeless without warning.
"Eh! Hey, what's wrong!!?"
"Hey!!! What happened!!?"
"Blood just came flying out of his head all of a sudden!!!"
The crowd was shocked by this bizarre scene... After all, this pirate died without any apparent reason.
This particular scene perplexed all readers; however, astute individuals managed to link this situation with Basil Hawkins' unique abilities.
Indeed, he cannot be bestowed the title of a magician without valid grounds.
"Did this ability essentially allow you to transfer your injuries to another person?" questioned his elder sister, her expression marked with puzzlement.
"Exactly... the most prominent attributes of the Wara Wara no Mi involve Life Minus... I possess the capacity to extract the life force of individuals, transforming them into a Straw man within my own being. Consequently, any harm befell upon me gets redirected to the Straw man, even if the inflicted damage would typically result in a fatality... only the possessor of the Straw man's life will meet their demise, not myself."
Hawkins exhibited no concern if others happened to eavesdrop; after all, these revelations were bound to surface in the upcoming chapters... he bore a rather understanding demeanor.
