As if piercing through a rag, the attacker's sword pierced through Vladimir's chest.
However, this sword neither drew blood nor harmed Vladimir in the slightest.
The blade pierced through the Shadow Fiend's body, but the attacker did not feel like he had cut anything solid.
"As expected, a Logia-type ability user!" The person was shocked, so frightened that he dropped the sword in his hand, moved his feet, and quickly retreated, trying to create a safe distance.
Vladimir smiled playfully, easily snatching the sword.
At this moment, the bald captain, who had been knocked away by his punch, had stood up, looking at him with a mixture of shock and anger.
"Who are you? Why are you antagonizing me?" He contained some fear, a bit fierce on the outside but weak on the inside, "We are the Battle Axe Pirates, report your name!"
Hearing this, Vladimir waved the sword in his hand, and after a while, he said, "Aren't you going to kill Whitebeard? I'll just test how much you weigh. You're so bold."
The bald captain's face was ugly. He had just boasted a bit when he was drunk, so why did he provoke this kind of person?
However, in front of his subordinates, he couldn't show weakness and said fiercely, "Don't think you can be safe just because you're a Logia type. Since you've provoked our Battle Axe Pirates, don't even think about walking out of this door without giving an explanation!"
"Stop talking nonsense. I'm just looking for you to fight."
Curling his lips, Vladimir ignored the other party's threat and thrust out his sword like lightning.
The sword light flickered, and a point of starlight stabbed straight at the bald man's brow.
Seeing this, the bald captain's anger rose greatly, and he shouted, "Good, since you're courting death!"
Immediately, he advanced instead of retreating, holding his broadsword to meet the attack.
Clang!
After a harsh sound, the sword in Vladimir's hand broke in response.
"Uh... what a trash sword."
The blade was cut off with one blow, and Vladimir was speechless for a long time. He looked at the owner of the sword, only to see that the other party had a pained expression.
"Hahaha, my knife is made of fine steel!"
The bald captain took advantage of the situation, laughing wildly, and slashed down on the Shadow Fiend's head with one blow.
With a tearing sound, the Shadow Fiend was divided into two, turning into two clouds of thick smoke. But before the pirates could breathe a sigh of relief, the two clouds of black smoke gathered again, reforming into a human form.
"Damn Logia type!" The bald man's face was ashen, but his left hand touched his waist behind him without a trace.
Until this moment, all the pirates thought that Vladimir was some kind of Logia-type Devil Fruit ability user.
Only the Logia type has "fluidity." Fluidity means that it is like flowing water. Water has no fixed shape, and guests have no fixed position. General physical attacks will not work.
"Logia type?" Vladimir chuckled, "If you want to think that way, then let's just assume that's the case."
After a pause, he muttered to himself, "Ordinary swords are not suitable. It seems I have to condense a weapon myself."
As he spoke, Vladimir raised his hand, and endless black smoke condensed in his palm. After a moment, a pitch-black sword appeared in his hand.
He had now basically figured out the two abilities of the Shadow Fiend.
The first was to instantly travel an endless distance, and the second was shadow body manipulation. Materialization and condensing swords were manifestations of this ability.
With the Shadow Sword, Vladimir didn't say anything and shot again.
He had no experience in swordsmanship, but even if he hadn't eaten pork, he had seen pigs run, right?
The black sword stabbed out, and the bald man's face changed.
"I can't block! This guy is immune to my attacks. It's a 'trade injury for injury' style of fighting!"
This injury, for the bald man, would naturally bleed, but for Vladimir, it was not an injury.
Thinking of this, the bald man chose to dodge. After all, he was also a pirate with a 75 million bounty. If he was determined to dodge, it would be difficult for Vladimir to stab him.
"Tsk tsk, don't dodge, come and hit me."
Missing a sword, Vladimir mocked, and then swept with another sword.
Seeing this, the bald man felt a chill all over his body, thinking, "This guy doesn't look like a swordsman. His sword movements are very amateurish, but the angle of attack is very tricky!"
With a twist of his thick waist, he dodged again.
"Boring, I'm tired of playing."
Suddenly, Vladimir stopped his movements, his eyes indifferent.
But before the bald captain could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw the other party suddenly throw the black sword in his hand.
Whoosh!
A black light flashed. The speed of this sword was so fast that you could see the afterimage. In a flash, the bald captain lost track of the sword.
Tear!
His left foot hurt. The bald man looked down and saw the black sword piercing through his foot, firmly nailing him to the floor.
"Ah!"
A scream sounded, and the bald man was immediately covered in cold sweat.
"I just wanted to try swordsmanship. Otherwise, there are plenty of ways to kill you, but you keep dodging, making it difficult for me."
You want to kill me, but you don't let me dodge? What kind of reasoning is that!?
The bald man hated it. This guy was simply unreasonable.
"However, forget it. Your 75 million bounty was probably because you committed too many evil deeds to be wanted. I advise you, don't go to the New World to die. With your level, you're barely cannon fodder in that place."
The bald man was silent, and the pirates on the side were also shocked, not daring to act rashly.
Vladimir was too lazy to continue to entangle with this group of people. He glanced at the old man who had been drinking in the corner, waved his hand, and his whole person began to slowly disappear.
"Goodbye, I'll find you to play again if I have the chance."
Seeing his body fade, the bald man's eyes flashed, enduring the pain, and shouted, "Who exactly are you? Report your name, I'll remember this revenge!"
"Me?"
This question stumped Vladimir. After a little thought, he smiled and said, "I'm called Shadow Fiend, of the Phantom Pirates. If you want revenge, you can come and find me at any time."
Phantom, like a dream, without beginning or end.
