Haeger Town.

It seems like an ordinary town, but the residents of the town are living in fear, because there are often a large number of Capone gang members in the town.

These gangs colluded with local powers and even had various insider transactions with the Navy. They often wanted to kill and set fire, and the Navy only had a symbolic patrol.

Town center.

There is a simple exterior but very luxurious interior building.

In a hall on the highest floor of the building, a tall and fat man in black suit was sitting there, looking at a note of intelligence sent by his subordinates, shaking his head, and showing disdain on his face.

"The navy is still useless as ever. It is surrounded and laid out in advance, but it can't even take down a pirate hunter."

His name is Capone, Leki. He is one of several senior cadres of the gangster Capone family, responsible for the development of underground gangs in this sea area.

A man in black suit wearing glasses spoke in a deep voice:

"Maybe the strength of the ghost hand Rhodes is a bit beyond expectations. Leader, will this involve us?"

"So what if it is involved? I have also investigated the information of the ghost hand Rhodes. He has always been alone, but he can still make a big difference? Even if our troops compete head-on with the Navy branch, they may not lose!"

Leki shook her head disdainfully and picked up a glass of red wine on the table.

However.

Just as he put the red wine to his mouth, the whole building suddenly shook, and with a dull roar, the red wine in the cup spilled him all over.

Leki was furious, put down her wine glass and stood up suddenly.

"What's going on? What's going on?"

"Lei...Leiki, it's not good, someone has entered from outside!"

A subordinate of a Capone gangster ran in from outside in panic and reported to Leki, with a look of horror on his face.

As soon as this said, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly stood out. The maid holding a scarf trying to wipe Leki's suit trembled her hands, and her eyes were filled with fear.

Leki was also shocked and said, "Who was in? The Navy or the Doppel Gangster's bastard? How come there was no news at all."

"No... it's not the Navy, nor the Doppel Gang, it's the ghost hand Rhodes, he rushed in alone!"

The gang member spoke tremblingly.

Leki's eyes widened.

"Ghost Hand Rhodes? He's the only one? What are you doing for food? You can rush in alone? You won't go out and kill him for me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a roar came from the door. The exquisite red oak door shattered, and a figure walked in as the wood chips flew.

"Who is...Capenleki?"

Rhodes' clothes were a little embarrassed, but the gaze that appeared in his indifferent eyes felt like he fell into an ice cellar when he touched it.

The few people in the hall couldn't help but turn their eyes to Carpenleki, and Rhodes's eyes also moved.

"You did the things in Tarot Town."

Rhodes stared at Caponeleki indifferently.

Caponeleki was shocked by the aura of Rhodes's rushing in, but he was one of the senior cadres of the Capone family after all, so he quickly calmed down and said coldly.

“So what?”

As Caponeleki's voice fell, members of the Capone gang rushed in, and the corridor outside was densely filled with people.

"Just look for the wrong person."

Rhodes didn't care about the Capone gang members who were constantly coming. After nodding, he shook his wrist and took out a pistol. He shot six times in a row, instantly killing six gang members who rushed in.

Immediately afterwards.

Rhodes threw away his pistol, rushed forward, and rushed directly towards Capone Leki.

If he was surrounded by hundreds of people holding muskets, that situation would not be very friendly to Rhodes, so he did not intend to waste his time.

"Don't be too arrogant, boy!"

Carpenleki's eyes showed cold anger, and he took out two pistols at speed no less than Rhodes, and shot at Rhodes' banging point.

Rhodes paused in a forward stance, stepped hard under his feet, and used a Navy six-style shaving, and moved his whole body suddenly, avoiding the bullets fired by Caponekee.

"Damn it!"

Caponeleki didn't expect that Rhodes could avoid his bullets at such a close distance, and then knocked the bullets out of the air, pulled out a long sword from his waist and slashed it out with a sword towards Rhodes who was rushing up.

Rhodes's eyes were cold, and he did not retreat or draw his sword. Instead, his five fingers clenched into fists and suddenly punched out his sword against Caponeleki.

Buzz!

The fist that Rhodes waved was not armed and domineering, but it was wrapped in a twisted force. It looked like the shaking fruit of a white beard, but the color was not white, but colorless and transparent, as if above the burning flames, the twisted air was part of the twisted air.

This is the new ability that Rhodes can display after he points his proficiency to 75.

He can directly attach the twisted force to his fist. Although he cannot throw it out for a long-range attack, he already has the ability to deal with swords with bare hands!

Click!

When Caponeleki's sword touched the twisted area, the entire sword was strangled in mid-air by a force, making it difficult to move one inch down!

"Devil Fruit..."

Caponeleki's pupils shrank, but it was already difficult to get off the tiger. He roared, held the hilt of the sword with both hands, and slashed hard.

But even though he tried his best to slash, the long sword he held was still twisted and broken at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Crack! Crack!!

In the end, the entire sword was twisted into a spiral piece of iron.

Rhodz retracted his fist and slapped his hands in front of him. The twisted sword was crushed into a ball of iron by him, throwing it backhand towards the door, smashing the head of a gang member who rushed in.

"you……"

Caponeleki finally showed a hint of panic on his face, and his body retreated, trying to jump out of the window and escape, but before he could back, Rhodes took a step forward, pulled his collar, and pressed him against the wall.

"Let your men get out."

Rhodes spoke coldly.

As a senior cadre of the Capone family, Carpenleki has experienced many battles of all sizes, but this is the first time that he was rushed into the base alone.

Feeling the strange power that was passing through the hand that strangled his neck, thinking of the scene where his sword was twisted into a spiral iron piece just now, the fear in Capone Leki began to spread.

"No, don't come in! You all go out!"

He yelled.

Many gang members looked at each other and finally walked out one by one.

Rhodes glanced at the door, slowly withdrew his gaze, and looked at Carpenleki, who was strangled by his neck and pressed against the wall.

“No one disturbs us now.”

"What are you...what are you going to do? If you want money, I can give it to you!"

For Carpenleki, it is obviously his life that is most important. Since Rhodes is a pirate hunter, in his opinion, all he wants is money.

"No, I'm not interested in money."

Rhodes shook his head, let go of Caponeleki, took out a piece of paper from his arms, and threw out a recording device.

"I don't like to take the blame for others. The matter in Tarot Town has nothing to do with me. I need you to tell the story honestly and then notify the Navy."

When Capone Licki heard what Rhodes said, he was slightly stunned. He looked at the paper and pen that Rhodes threw on the ground and suddenly shook his head.

"So that's it. You're making this idea... I'm sorry, even if I do this, it's useless, because this is not something I've manipulated."

"Didn't you manipulate?"

Rhodes frowned slightly.

The corners of Carpenleki's mouth slightly raised and said, "Do you want to know who framed you? I can tell...ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Before he could finish his sentence, the muscles on his arm twisted into a terrifying arc, and the terrifying sound of muscle breaking was vaguely heard.

“Who did it?”

Rhodes asked indifferently.

"You deserve to die..."

Caponeleki showed a ferocious look and anger on his face. He had already shouted out half of his angrily scolding, but when he touched Rhodes' cold eyes, the lower half was blocked in his throat.

Before the threat of death, he finally retreated, his tone became weak, and he slowly spoke:

"It's Lieutenant Colonel Leica from the Navy. He took the initiative to propose this matter. The specific matters were done by the Navy and had nothing to do with me."

The air fell into silence.

"Navy Colonel Leica..."

Rhodes murmured in a low tone, the expression on his face could not be described in words. He looked at Carpenleki beside him and suddenly his wrist shook.
