Chapter 342 Red Hair VS Sand Crocodile

Hawkeye left, and there were only two people left on the battlefield.

"Ha~ha~haha, redhead, let's play a game!"

Crocodile squatted down, pressed his palms on the sand, his eyes were full of contempt, the eyes he would have when he was playing with weak opponents.

"When do you think the sandstorm is the strongest?"

"."

Shanks felt a thump in his heart. He didn't know about sandstorms, but his intuition told him that there must be danger in it!

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

There were four consecutive roars, and a large amount of sand and dust gushed out like a fountain in the four corners of the island, forming a new sandstorm.

The four sandstorms rotated slowly, and they were not large in scale. They could be broken up with just one blow, but they made him feel a sense of crisis!

"Under the right environment, the sandstorm will thrive as it advances, and eventually become a super natural disaster that blocks the sky and the sun, and can destroy a city with a snap of your fingers!"

Following Crocodile's explanation, the four sandstorms began to move, slowly rotating and shrinking around the island.

"In just an hour, they'll be right where we are!"

"Red hair, what do you think will happen when these four sandstorms converge at one point and collide with each other?"

"Ha~ha~haha, everything except me will be crushed, and even the bones will not be found!"

"."

Shanks' face changed suddenly. If it was true what Crocodile said, then he would face not only powerful enemies, but also real natural disasters!

That is a force that humans cannot resist!

Shanks raised the Griffin and pointed the knife point at Crocodile: "Just beat you in an hour, right?"

"No, the sandstorm won't stop even if you beat me."

Crocodile grinned.

"That's what's interesting, isn't it?"

"It's really bad fun."

Shanks' heart sank. He had to defeat Crocodile before a sandstorm blocked his way out.

No time wasted!

"boom!"

The legs suddenly exerted force, and the body shot out like an arrow from the string, and came to Crocodile in the blink of an eye, and slashed at Crocodile's neck with the blade wrapped around Haki!

"Sure enough, it's fast!"

Crocodile was already prepared. The moment Shanks moved, his body jumped back, and his right arm turned into a blade of sand!

"Arc-shaped sand dunes!"

The crescent-shaped sand blade swept out and collided with the attacking blade!

"puff!"

Sand Blade collapsed again!

Crocodile's eyes were calm, and he wasn't surprised at all.

He knew from the previous fights that the red-haired Haki was above him, and the hardness of the sand blade was not high, so it was normal to be broken.

However, just gaining a little time is enough!

The moment he landed and stabilized his figure, his arms melted into sand again, pouring his strength into the ground!

"Desert Sunflower!"

"boom!"

The sand within a circle with a diameter of 100 meters in front suddenly sank, like a funnel, the sand flowed towards the center!

This is quicksand hell!

Shanks took the brunt of it, and the more he struggled, the deeper his feet sank.

"Ha~ha~haha, if you use it skillfully and practice hard, the power of Devil Fruit will become extremely powerful!"

"I'm different from those idiots who only know how to rely on ability. After hellish training, I have reached the strongest level of mastery of ability, which is awakening!"

"Understood, we are not the same level of pirates, you don't even have the ability, it is impossible to defeat me!"

Crocodile spoke harsh words, but his eyes did not relax at all, but his spirit was highly concentrated.

After being beaten by Kaido for four months, he deeply understands the consequences of close combat with a strong Haki. If he is stuck by the red hair, he must be the one who loses!

Take advantage of the present and attack with all your strength!

The right arm turned into a blade of sand again, chopping down from top to bottom!

"Oops!"

Shanks focused his eyes, caught Crocodile's attack with a sense of knowledge, and immediately swung his knife to the ground below!

"Empty Slash!"

With a bang, the sand and air exploded, and the strong reaction force pushed Shanks into the sky!

At the same time, the blade of sand fell from the sky!

"Desert Sword!"

"boom!"

The earth trembled, and dust rose into the sky.

The huge gully has no end in sight, and it seems to cut the desert open!

"so close!"

Shanks breathed a sigh of relief, if this slash fell on him, even if he used Armament Haki to defend, he would definitely be injured.

Haki can be used for defense, but it is not omnipotent. As long as the attack power exceeds the limit that Haki can bear, then Haki can be defeated.

"Don't try to escape!"

Crocodile inserted his palm into the ground, turned into a sand blade and sneaked underground, quickly coming to the bottom of Shanks!

"Desert Great Sword!"

The sand sword that sprang out from the ground not only has an extremely fast attack speed, but also is very stealthy, making it very suitable for sneak attacks.

Sensing the attack from below, Shanks twisted his body forcibly and swung his knife to meet the stabbing desert sword, but this time, his knife did not cut through the sand sword.

"Use your strength!"

Shanks withdrew his strength slightly, and his body immediately flew upside down under the push of the desert sword, and landed outside the quicksand area smoothly.

"call!"

Shanks breathed a sigh of relief when he stepped on relatively firm sand.

The response just now seemed simple, but in fact it was a great test of timing, and if you were not careful, you might be stabbed by the great sword of sand.

Even if it can be resisted with Haki, the body will not be free from pain, and it will have to face the follow-up attack of Crocodile.

"What a difficult man!"

Crocodile is more difficult to deal with than he imagined. The sand, which can change shape at will, integrates offense and defense, and can deal with various emergencies.

"So thirsty!"

Shanks licked his chapped lips, the desire for water rose in his heart, and he knew that this was also Crocodile's ability.

The body is water and is losing it.

In his current state, I'm afraid he won't be able to last for an hour.

"Redhead, you don't have time to rest!"

Crocodile clenched his fists and adjusted his breathing rhythm.

He used up a lot of stamina in one against two before, and now he must save his stamina to prepare for the final stage.

He looked at the sea in the distance, his eyes were gradually filled with bloodshot eyes, and there was also a strong sense of unwillingness!

"I'll beat your Haki with my ability, and prove to that Haki bastard that Devil Fruit's ability is the strongest!"

"Haki bastard?"

Shanks was taken aback. Hearing what Crocodile said, it seemed that he lost to a monster who was good at Haki, and he had deep resentment.

But now is not the time to think about that.

The four sandstorms are spinning and shrinking, and his physical condition is also declining rapidly, leaving him with less and less time.

However, he couldn't find a way to win and fell into a disadvantage for a while.

This is destined to be an arduous and protracted battle.
