Chapter 486 Iron King 8 Barrett

Chapter 486 Iron Turtle Barrett
Everyone was shocked when they saw Barrett suddenly rushing in from Egg Head Island. Even Lu Li couldn't understand why Barrett appeared here.

Previously, Blackbeard broke into Impel Down and released all the prisoners on the sixth floor, including several dangerous figures including Barrett, but Blackbeard ignored him and left.

However, Lu Li didn't care much about it at the time. After all, people like Barrett were difficult to cooperate with, and it would be troublesome if a fight broke out, so he didn't care.

He was just very curious now about what Rafar had promised Barrett that made Barrett go to the island and attack him.

Looking at the shocked expressions of Kizaru and Aokiji, they definitely didn't know that Barrett would come here, which means that the transaction between Rafael and Barrett was not approved by the World Government, but involved some shameful exchanges of interests.

Barrett did not take Aokiji and Kizaru into consideration when attacking. Judging from his posture, it seemed that he was trying to kill everyone with that punch just now.

"Barrett...why would such a difficult guy come here?"

Hawkeye, who was about to enter the research institute to look for someone, also looked back at the battlefield. He was not very old among the pirates, but he had heard of Barrett's reputation more than 20 years ago.

Seeing that Barrett’s first target of attack was Lu Li, he felt a little uneasy.

"Find someone first."

Lu Li said, let Hawkeye take Yamato away and don't worry about him.

After that, he looked at Barrett again, and the fat dragon peeked out from under his collar and got the detailed information.

Although he had anticipated the previous wave of attacks, Lu Li still felt a little weird after actually seeing Barrett's attributes.

Luffy...can he defeat Barrett?
real or fake?

From Lu Li's perception and the panel he saw, Barrett was undoubtedly an emperor-level warrior. Even if Kizaru or Aokiji fought him one-on-one, they probably wouldn't be able to defeat him.

With the advantage of the fruit, Kizaru can escape even if he can't win, but Aokiji will probably die.

"Hahaha……"

Barrett laughed heartily, "It's really lively here. Hey, two recruits, did you see that I didn't wet my pants?"

Barrett's words were directed at Kizaru and Aokiji. Twenty years ago, the navy had launched a vigorous siege against him. At that time, it was led by Sengoku and Garp, and Aokiji, Kizaru and Akainu had all participated in the battle.

However, these naval admirals were only major generals at that time.

In terms of age, Barrett is actually ten years younger than Aokiji. When he called the two of them new recruits, he was undoubtedly full of contempt.

But even the two admirals had to admit that when they faced Barrett 20 years ago, they were indeed only "new recruits" playing in the outfield, and were not the main force at all.

According to the intelligence of the World Government, Barrett never stopped training in prison and has been enduring loneliness and mad training. Twenty years have passed, and Barrett's strength has not only not declined, but has increased.

Even though Kizaru and the other man have already become admirals of the navy, they dare not say that they can defeat Barrett. The scene of the other party fighting against the navy heroes in the Demon Slayer Order is still vivid in their minds after so many years.

"Barrett, why are you here?"

Kizaru asked with a frown. He didn't understand why Barrett, who had disappeared for a long time after escaping from prison, suddenly appeared on Egghead Island. It was obvious that he came here with some purpose.

"Ah? Why should I answer your question?"

Barrett's face was full of indignation and he looked down on Kizaru. He had no intention of negotiating with the two admirals.

As he said this, he directly activated the ability of the awakened fruit and madly merged with the surrounding things. At this rate, it seemed as if he was going to assimilate the entire Egghead Island.

Kizaru felt that this was not good. Just like in the Battle of Marineford, he did not dare to use the awakening of the fruit with all his strength on Eggman Island, because the impact of the awakening of the fruit on the terrain and environment was irreversible. He was afraid that he would lose Vegapunk hiding on the island during the assimilation process.

The same goes for Aokiji. It’s not that Aokiji has a friendship with Vegapunk, but he wants to confirm something with Vegapunk now, and of course he doesn’t want Vegapunk to die.

Barrett obviously didn't have such concerns. If Rafar pointed fingers at him, he would not pay any attention to Rafar no matter how lucrative the deal was.

Rafael only said that it was enough to kill the natural disaster Lu Li, and he didn't care what happened to the rest. Therefore, he had no scruples about destroying Egghead Island. After killing Lu Li, he also wanted to kill Kizaru and Aokiji.

At this time, Barrett transformed into a large giant. Because he had been a cellmate and understood the abilities of Calamity, he also integrated an insulating layer inside. This material is hard to find elsewhere, but it is not lacking on the technological island of Egghead Island.

"Natural Disaster, I actually admire you. After all, personal strength is the real strength."

Barrett's voice came from the giant combined man, "If I had known the war on top would be so interesting, I would have gone over to join in. It's a pity that someone wants to buy your life."

As he said that, he punched Lu Li. Even though he had turned into a combined giant, his fist was still covered with top-level Ryuo and Ba Chan.

There is no doubt that even Luffy, who has received training from Lu Li, would be knocked down directly by Barrett's attack.

Lu Li could only treat this as a parallel world to the theater version. He slashed with his sword, and the sharp sword intent collided with Barrett's iron fist.

Amid the sound of metal clashing, a part of Barrett's combined iron fist was cut off, but it was not completely cut off, which shows the hardness of its armament color and combined material.

Lu Li retreated under the force of the recoil, propped up his back to block Kizaru's light bullet, "Buy my life? Rafael?"

Aokiji, who was about to attack Lu Li, was stunned when he heard Lu Li's words and stopped the attack in his hand. Kizaru was also a little confused and looked at Barrett.

Barrett was obviously not a good liar. He did not respond directly, but the momentary stiffness of his body movements still allowed people to read his true thoughts.

Barrett didn't say anything, but just kept punching Lu Li. From a distance, he looked like a giant standing on Egghead Island, occupying half the size of the island, and smashing his fists downwards madly.

Every punch would stir up countless debris, and the shock wave would dissipate, causing the sea water around Egghead Island to recede and causing a tsunami to surge into the distance.

"idiot."

Rafar, who was observing the battlefield through a high-altitude monitor, cursed in his heart when he saw this scene, thinking that pirates were indeed brainless guys.

You just do your work, why do you insist on saying that someone wants to save Lu Li's life? Lu Li asked back at this time, wouldn't it disrupt the morale of the generals' group?
Fortunately, Kizaru is more cautious about Lu Li at the moment, and there is a precedent of the World Government cooperating with pirates, so he has no intention of turning against them. But Aokiji obviously has more on his mind, and he is standing aside without making any move, silently thinking about something.

boom--

On Egghead Island, Lu Li's knife moved, deflecting Barrett's fist. At the same time, he rushed forward at high speed, flashed to the upper left of Barrett, and slashed downward with his knife, splitting the chest of the combined giant.

The feeling from the Prisoner made Lu Li frown slightly. He roughly understood why Rafar was willing to make a deal with Barrett at the risk of being criticized. Barrett's abilities and combat characteristics were indeed somewhat restraining to him.

At this point, Lu Li already knew that Rafar must have known that he would come to Egghead Island, so he prepared combat power and was waiting for him.

Then it is impossible for Rafar not to consider how to deal with himself. After all, the previous Battle of Marineford has already proved his outrageous ability to cause harm. Even if an admiral is hit by two swords from him in the Bankai state, he will basically be dead.

In this situation, there is only one kind of person who can fight with him, and that is the kind of person whose defense is so strong that he cannot be broken and actually hurt.

Barrett is obviously a master of this type. His fusion fruit wraps his body tightly, and he uses the high-tech materials on Egghead Island to combine. Combined with the armament color, he is as hard as an iron turtle.

For this kind of large giant, his Prisoner can cut through its outer armor, but it is difficult to directly damage its inner core. This is Barrett's specialized form of defense against slashing attacks.

The cooperation between the Demon Prisoner and the Soul Eater is very abnormal, but the prerequisite is that the main body can be cut. Barrett wrapped himself up, so he couldn't touch him at all, and the insulating layer can also prevent lightning, which is simply Lu Li's nemesis.

Rafar’s move was indeed brilliant, but Barrett is a double-edged sword. He is qualified as the main tank vanguard to deal with Lu Li, but his shortcomings are also obvious.

That is, Barrett is a guy who doesn't listen to orders and does what he wants. After all, he originally wanted to kill all the strong men to prove himself, and then become the Pirate King in his mind.

So now it happens that Barrett's attacks do not distinguish between friend and foe, and sometimes he even attacks Kizaru and Aokiji together.

Originally, if Barrett was at the front to take the damage, while Kizaru and Aokiji were dealing magic damage, Lu Li would really feel a bit stressed.

But this idiot Barrett only knew how to act recklessly, and had no intention of cooperating with Kizaru and Aokiji, so Lu Li had many solutions.

In the sea of ​​light in the airspace where Kizaru's fruit was awakened, Lu Li activated his shadowless skill and flashed to the blind spot behind Barrett.

The large size has both advantages and disadvantages. Some positions are difficult for Barrett to attack, and it is difficult to defend from behind, so he can only use armed color domineering to resist.

Barrett, who sensed Lu Li's transfer, was not panicked. He believed that his defense was unparalleled in the world. The flexibility of his combined giant was average, but he had confirmed through previous battles that Lu Li's sword could not cut through his combined giant to reach the core.

Kizaru's light bullets were originally intended to attack Lu Li, but after Lu Li dodged, those light bullets fell on Barrett. The continuous bombardment caused Barrett's body to stagger slightly backwards.

At the same time, Aokiji did not attack Lu Li for some reason. Instead, he used the Ice Age to seal the feet of Barrett's combined giant, which cut off Barrett's space to move.

At this time, Lu Li made his move. He did not use the Prison Demon to slash at Barrett, but instead carried the Prison Demon on his back, approached him in an instant, and then punched him at top speed with the force to shake mountains and split the earth.

boom--

The powerful blunt force impact directly created a big hole in Barrett's combined giant. At the same time, the shock wave was transmitted. Lu Li used the technique of hitting the bull from behind the mountain to cause Barrett to suffer shock damage internally.

Lu Li got close and threw a series of inch punches, with the impact spreading continuously at the same position. The hole on Barrett's body seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, almost approaching the core of the fusion.

"Disturbing bugs!"

Barrett shouted angrily, his domineering aura bursting out with all his strength, and he used brute force to break free from Aokiji's control. He turned his body and swung his arms, trying to knock Lu Li away. At the same time, he was also using the Fusion Fruit to continuously repair the parts of his body that had been knocked off.

Lu Li was not greedy for damage. He left in an instant before Barrett's attack arrived, and landed lightly on Barrett's shoulder.

Purple mist floated around him. He reached behind his back with one hand, gripping the hilt of the Demon-Imprisoning Knife. Even though Barrett's movements were so violent, his body did not waver at all, as if he was firmly rooted in Barrett's shoulders.

"Hey, idiot, I'm here."

As Lu Li spoke, he slashed with his sword. Because Barrett was unable to defend himself in this position, Lu Li used all his strength and slashed directly off the combined giant's head.

As the huge head fell, Lu Li jumped up from the spot. Barrett's hand hit nothing, and the huge force instead broke his shoulder.

There is no doubt about Barrett's strength in head-on combat. Even if Sengoku and Garp attack together head-on, Barrett's defense will not be broken, and they will end up in a war of attrition.

This is how Barrett lost in history. After fighting with Garp and Sengoku for a long time, he was exhausted and was eventually defeated by a surprise attack from other pirates.

In fact, in Lu Li's opinion, there is no need to fight Barrett head-on to defeat him.

Combined giants and the like are so stupid.

Lu Li kept jumping on Barrett like this. Barrett was very angry, but he had no way to deal with Lu Li who was extremely fast.

Using a cannon to kill a mosquito is actually a very difficult task.

"Hu-hu-hu-"

After a fierce attack, Lu Li was still fine, but Barrett himself was tired and started to gasp for breath.

In addition to his large size, although Kizaru did not intend to, when he attacked Lu Li, all of his attacks that missed hit Barrett.

In order to avoid being broken by Kizaru, Barrett had to distract himself and use the armament color to carry out unnecessary defense, which consumed a lot of physical energy.

"Natural disaster..."

Barrett's voice was low. This was the first time he had been teased like this since he was born.

When he was young, he was defeated by the Pirate King Roger, and later he boarded Roger's ship, hoping to defeat him one day.

But even Roger had never played with him so easily. Originally, when he was facing Lu Li head-on, he still felt that he had the advantage, but now he found that if Lu Li used clever tactics, he could not touch him at all.
