But the few people didn't ask anything more, but instead quickly took action, and rushed into the storage room.
"Are you planning to directly give me the things, then?" El asked with a slightly puzzled tone.
"Don't joke around, El, the battle between us, has only just begun!" John bared his teeth, and said with a ferocious expression.
"Forget it, John, I advise you to not waste your energy, you should know very well, that you're not my opponent."
El, neither used the power of Conqueror's Haki Entanglement now.
Nor did he use the power of Kurama.
But his strength was still above John.
To be honest, he didn't know what John was going to use to fight him.
"That's not necessarily!!!" John suddenly grinned.
In the next second, he tightly gripped the Grade Great Sword in both hands, and suddenly chopped down, however, the target he attacked wasn't El, but the ship under his feet.
"Swish!!!"
A terrifying white light flashed, and the sword energy flew and whistled, and directly tore the deck under his feet completely open.
"Crack crack crack!!!"
The entire ship directly began to tear from the center, broke off, and was falling towards the sea surface.
"What are you doing???"
Seeing John suddenly cut his own ship in half with this confusing operation, even El was stunned.
They had been fighting well, why did he attack his own ship?
"El, you have no chance of winning in this battle! Because I'm not an ability user, and you.... as long as you're knocked back to the sea surface by me, you will be defeated!"
John knew very well, that if they competed in hard strength, he would definitely not be El's opponent.
Since that was the case, then he needed to think of other methods!
And now, he had thought of a good method, which was to completely destroy the ship under his feet.
So that El would have nowhere to land, and he only needed to press forward step by step and constantly launch attacks towards El.
As long as he could make El's body fall into the sea, then he could declare victory in this battle!
This was also why, he had just let his subordinates collect all of the treasures in the storage room.
It was so that, after the ship was destroyed, he couldn't let the treasures in his storage room also fall into the sea.
"It seems that Captain John is destined to win this battle!"
"That's right, even if El's strength is stronger, but.... as long as he's knocked back to the sea surface by Captain John, then he will undoubtedly be defeated!"
"Devil Fruit ability users, although they will possess powerful strength, but their weaknesses are also very obvious, it seems that Captain John's choice to not eat a Devil Fruit was the right one, because today this will be the key to his victory!"
"Now, I'm already a little looking forward to, what kind of reward Captain Rocks will give us when we bring back the Poneglyph!"
"Hahaha..... I believe it will definitely be an extraordinary reward!"
Those crew members who had already fallen into the sea.
But were carrying treasures, heard John's words, and immediately understood John's intention.
So now, they had regained hope in John!
In their opinion, in this battle, John, who hadn't eaten a Devil Fruit, would definitely be able to defeat El.
"You guy, are quite smart." El spread his hands and smiled.
If El had really eaten a Devil Fruit, facing the situation of being in the sea but having nowhere to land, it would really be very troublesome.
But.... the problem was, El hadn't eaten a Devil Fruit at all.
His abilities, all came from the system.
So John's wave of operations, seemed somewhat idiotic to him.
"Hahaha..... it seems, that you also know that you don't have much chance of winning, huh El, are you going to obediently hand over the Poneglyph now? That way, you won't be defeated at my hands."
John had a thick smile on his face, and believed that he had victory in his grasp.
"Tsk, you guy, I'm just being polite to you, and you're really taking yourself seriously?"
"It seems, that you don't choose to admit defeat, huh then that's good, let me see, how long the Rocks Pirates' strongest talented monster, can last in my hands!"
John didn't continue to waste words with El, and continued to swing his sword to split the ship under his feet into several halves.
Now he and El, were both standing on a thin piece of deck.
"Step!"
John used force in his legs, trampled on the deck under his feet, and then suddenly rushed towards El.
"Swish!!!"
John leaped up, and his arm's veins bulged.
He used all of his strength to chop towards El, this slash contained all of John's Great Swordsman swordsmanship attainments!!!
Terrifying power, rapidly attacked towards El.
"Dang!!!"
El swung Demon Slayer, and collided with John's blade.
Accompanied by the sound of metal clashing.
El's feet were covered with a layer of chakra, and he could walk on the water without sinking.
The deck under El's feet instantly split apart, and couldn't withstand the pressure brought by the two people's attacks at all.
Seeing this scene, John grinned, and then launched an even more swift offensive towards El.
"Clang clang clang!!!"
Between the flashes of swords and shadows, the two people had already suddenly slashed dozens of times.
Although the deck under El's feet, had split apart.
El could always make his legs, step on the broken wooden boards, and he could walk on the water without sinking.
No matter how swift El and John's offensive was, El's feet were covered with a layer of chakra, and he could walk on the water without sinking.
"Swish!!!"
El hacked towards John's abdomen again with his sword.
"You've lost, El!!!"
John, facing this attack, didn't choose to defend, and even had a ferocious smile on his face.
He took advantage of the gap where El had attacked him, and suddenly chopped towards the wooden board that El was standing on.
"Swish!!!"
The two people nearly drew their swords at the same time, El's sword hacked towards John's abdomen.
And John, used his sword to chop towards the wooden board.
"Bang!!!"
Being struck by El's blade, John's body, directly flew backwards, and crashed onto the sea surface.
Dozens of meters high waves rose on the scene.
And El due to the wooden board under his feet tearing, had also fallen into the sea.
John emerged from the water, and stroked the wound that was constantly bleeding and was faintly painful and said: "Hahaha.... El, I said, you have no chance of winning in this battle!"
Although he had been injured badly by El, but seeing El fall into the sea.
He knew that, the victor of this battle was him!!!
"He won!!!"
"Captain John won!"
"Even if El's strength is stronger, but as long as he comes into contact with seawater, then he will directly lose most of his power! The ultimate victor of this battle, is Captain John!"
"As expected of Captain John who we follow, even when facing a monster with transcendent strength like El, he can still think of a way to win!"
"That's right, Captain John, is after all the man we follow!!!"
Seeing El fall into the sea, that group of pirates who were in the sea surface, immediately laughed loudly.
Although John had been wounded by El's blade, he hadn't been defeated yet.
And El, after coming into contact with seawater, would directly lose all of his combat power!
Anyone who came here, would think that John had won!.
After being excited, John instructed the subordinates behind him: "You guys, go and fish El out, and shackle him with chains."
John, only wanted to obtain the Poneglyph that El had found.
He didn't intend to kill El.
Or rather..... he didn't dare to kill El.
Because if he killed him, he would suffer severe punishment from Rocks!!!
"Yes!!!"
Those pirates, were about to swim towards El's direction, and fish him out.
But they saw El emerge from the water, and swim towards the nearby deck.
Those pirates who wanted to fish El out, were directly stunned in place.
"H... How is this possible!"
"How is this possible! Devil Fruit ability users, will directly lose almost all of their strength when they come into contact with the sea, why isn't this guy affected at all?"
