Chapter 264: Chapter 264: In a Critical Moment, Sanji Makes His Entrance!

As Raynor came falling from above, Lucci suddenly twisted his own arm out of place. The intense pain instantly made him spring upward.

He followed with a kick straight to Raynor’s stomach.

Raynor tried to use Paper Art to dodge, but it was already too late.

Raynor was sent flying and crashed onto the ground, skidding backward with a loud bang.

But Lucci gave him no chance to recover. He raised his foot and kicked again in an instant.

Using the force of his Tempest Kick, Lucci straightened his injured arm.

Seeing this, Raynor quickly steadied himself.

At that moment, Lucci shifted his target to Iceburg again.

A serious look appeared in Raynor’s eyes. He immediately used Shave and appeared in front of Lucci.

Seeing this, Lucci’s face twisted into a sly smile. This was exactly what he had been waiting for—Raynor to come to him.

The next moment, Lucci grabbed Raynor’s injured arm. A sinister look flashed across his eyes.

"I never expected pirates like you to have such a kind heart."

"Oh, right. You still have another ship you haven’t had him build yet, don’t you?"

"Don’t worry. The World Government will take good care of the Treasure Tree Adam for you."

Hearing this, Raynor frowned slightly and struggled free of Lucci’s grip.

But the moment he exerted force, a pain like his left arm being twisted apart shot through him.

Cold sweat poured down Raynor’s face. At that moment, Lucci’s Finger Pistol was already flying toward him.

If he didn’t dodge now, he would certainly die.

Just as he thought this, Lucci’s Finger Pistol thrust toward Raynor’s throat.

Even with Armament Haki, it would be difficult to block Lucci’s Finger Pistol now.

Raynor desperately searched through his various tools, hoping to find something useful.

In the blink of an eye, Lucci’s index finger was already close to his throat.

But just then, a black figure suddenly charged over from Lucci’s left.

"Come on, don’t do this to an injured man! All those nutritious meals would have been wasted!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Sanji raised his right leg. A bright red glow covered it.

He kicked Lucci’s injured arm.

Lucci gritted his teeth, and his hand stopped moving.

Taking advantage of the opening, Raynor immediately activated the power of the Ox-Ox Charm.

His left arm suddenly grew much thicker, and he drove it straight into Lucci’s chest.

Seeing this, Lucci didn’t dare take the attack head-on. He released Raynor and flew backward.

But after regaining his freedom, Raynor had no intention of letting Lucci go.

He immediately launched a Tempest Kick.

At such close range, Lucci had no way to dodge.

He quickly activated Iron Body, intending to withstand the attack.

But in the next moment, Raynor’s Tempest Kick slashed Lucci into the air. Blood sprayed from his mouth.

He crashed into a nearby wall and began spitting up blood.

Sanji landed on the ground as well. Excitement flashed in his eyes as he gave Raynor a thumbs-up.

"Looks like we really are a perfect team."

Raynor was too exhausted to respond.

He simply panted heavily while holding his right arm.

Blood was slowly seeping from the arm.

Seeing this, Sanji frowned deeply.

He turned his cold gaze toward Lucci, anger burning in his eyes.

"That guy is seriously awful. He keeps attacking people’s wounds. What a terrible gentleman."

As soon as he finished speaking, Sanji charged forward. Red flames slowly ignited around his foot.

He then attacked Lucci.

Seeing this, Raynor’s eyes widened in fear. He immediately shouted:

"Hey, Sanji, don’t go over there! You’re no match for him!"

But the moment Raynor finished speaking, Sanji had already kicked toward Lucci.

Seeing this, a cold, sinister look appeared in Lucci’s eyes.

"Anyone whose mind is controlled by anger has no right to live in this world."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lucci thrust out one finger.

"Finger Pistol!"

The next moment, three holes appeared in Sanji’s chest.

Seeing this, Raynor frowned deeply and immediately sprinted forward.

Raynor was already moving incredibly fast, but he was still one second too late.

Lucci slowly raised his leg and then sent Sanji flying with a Tempest Kick.

Sanji spat out a mouthful of blood and slammed into the ground, disbelief showing in his eyes.

Raynor slowly helped Sanji to his feet.

He checked Sanji’s heartbeat and pulse. Once he confirmed that everything was normal, he finally relaxed.

Sanji was breathing heavily, and his consciousness was gradually fading.

Raynor had no intention of keeping him awake. Sanji needed to rest.

With that in mind, Raynor carefully lowered Sanji to the ground.

Then he stood up, looked at Lucci, and said:

"You really managed to make me angry, Mr. Lucci."

Hearing this, the excitement on Lucci’s face grew even stronger. He rolled his neck, making a series of cracking sounds, and said:

"That’s exactly what I wanted to say to you, Mr. Pirate."

As soon as he finished speaking, both men attacked at the same time, darting toward each other.

Lucci and Raynor simultaneously unleashed a Tempest Kick.

After their Tempest Kicks collided and faded away, the two of them began trading Finger Pistols.

Even though both had activated Iron Body, their bodies were still pierced again and again, leaving one bloody mark after another.

At this point, the battle came down to whose body was tougher.

Raynor had suffered such serious injuries that he could no longer use the power of the Ox-Ox Charm.

Otherwise, it would only speed up the collapse of his body.

The only way the two of them could fight now was by battling with the Six Powers.

They would continue until one of them fell.

In this way, roughly half an hour passed.

Raynor and Lucci were both gasping for breath.

They couldn’t even use Finger Pistol anymore.

In the end, the two of them canceled each other out with one final Tempest Kick and were thrown backward.

Raynor collapsed onto the ground, every muscle in his body aching.

Even at the Marine base, he had never undergone such intense Six Powers training.

Lucci could still move, but only slowly.

From the very beginning, Raynor had kept him pinned down, and several of Lucci’s bones were already broken.

The fact that he could still remain standing showed just how tough his body was.

Both men panted heavily as they kept their eyes on each other, afraid that the other might attack first.

They were both seriously injured and could barely attack each other anymore.

At that moment, they could only turn their attention to Nico Robin.

Nico Robin’s position had now become extremely important.

If she stood with the World Government, Raynor would be the one to die.

If she stood with the pirates, Lucci would be the one to die.

The two men looked at Nico Robin at the same time. Then Lucci spoke:

"Hey, Nico Robin, hurry up and kill him!"
