36- Something is wrong

Masato smiled and then took out a bottle of liquid and threw it at Alvida. Alvida looked at this with disdain. When the bottle arrived near her, Masato pulled out a gun and fired at the bottle. After the bottle was destroyed, the liquid inside came out and covered Alvida.

Ethan saw this clearly and felt his heart pounding and starting to feel anxious, and his anxiety grew even more when he saw that Masato had thrown a burning lighter at Alvida. Ethan immediately controlled the flame on the lighter and made it go out, then said aloud, "Alvida, step back."

Alvida listened to Ethan's orders and quickly retreated, when she got close to him he noticed the smell of liquid that covered Alvida's body "It's oil, he was trying to burn you"

While Ethan was talking to Alvida, the oil slipped off her body and not a single drop remained on it.

"Alvida, be more careful when you fight." Starting to get a little more serious, Ethan didn't expect Usopp to think about this so quickly and discovered Alvida's weakness.

"When you fight them beware of their tricks." said Ethan seriously, although he knew they were much stronger than the pirates in front of him, but there was no harm in being careful. Then he started walking towards the pirates in front of him and gradually increased his speed while the girls followed him.

Ethan tried to get close to Usopp's location but couldn't because of the many people blocking his way, "Get out of my way!"

Ethan jumped and then stepped on the head of one of the pirates in front of him and then jumped back to the cliff where Usopp was, but at this moment someone grabbed Ethan's leg and quickly dragged him to the ground.

Before his back hit the ground, Ethan tilted his body a little and made his hand reach first, then moved his other leg and kicked the person who caught him in the stomach.

The person was sent away by the force of the kick and instantly fainted.

After Ethan saw that he was surrounded on all sides while the pirates were trying to cut him with their swords, Ethan clenched his teeth and then began to swing his sword and began to fend off the attacks that were coming towards him with his swords and then swing his swords quickly and began to cut his enemies.

'Something is wrong, why does it seem that every time I kill one of them, someone else will come that is more powerful than the previous one. Also, their numbers are almost endless, no matter how much I cut them, more appears.' Ethan continued to cut people in front of him for five minutes, during which time he defeated 50 people.

At first he could defeat one person every second, but suddenly it was as if it was a game and the strength of the person who came after the person who defeated him seemed much greater than the strength of the person before him, and the last person took a minute to defeat him.

But when Ethan defeated about 60 people, the enemies stopped coming. So Ethan looked around for Usopp but couldn't find him.

'Did he run away' Ethan thought when he didn't find Usopp. Then he and the girls gathered, but he couldn't find Makino. "Where's Makino?"

"She's back on the ship, she's nauseous because she watched us killing. She seems so unaccustomed to it." Alvida said when she heard Ethan's question.

"It's okay, as long as she's fine, she'll get used to it." Ethan sighed in relief, he had already thought of the worst possibility, so he was relieved when he heard she was back on the ship.

'I have to go and calm her down.'

"For now, let's split into two groups. Me, Lucy, and Zora will explore the island, while Kuina and Alvida will stay with Nami and Makino on the ship and guard it." After Ethan finished speaking directly, more people appeared under Usopp's command and started walking towards Ethan.

'Damn, how can Usopp get so many subordinates.' Ethan thinks it will be annoying if people keep showing up and fighting them.

Usopp looked at Ethan while smiling, "What do you think of joining my crew, you are really a strong person and I really admire your abilities."

"Are you kidding me, the winner hasn't been decided yet and I'm not going to join a coward like you." Ethan looked at Usopp with disdain, because Usopp had run away from the fight and then brought in more of his subordinates to fight in his stead.

"I'm a coward? How about you and I fight one against one without our pirates interfering? And if you win, you'll give me your ship and you'll join my crew. And if you win, I'll give you a treasure I've earned." Usopp showed no discomfort when Ethan called him a coward, but made a request to fight Ethan one-on-one.

"Okay." Ethan quickly agreed because he was sure of his victory, and he didn't care about Usopp's treasure, he just wanted to kill him here and now.

Usopp descended from the cliff and left his pirates behind and none of them came forward to stop their captain as if they were sure of his victory, when the girls saw that Usopp had gone down they backed off and gave space to Ethan and Usopp.

Ethan frowned, thinking that something was wrong with him, that the Usopp who he knew him wouldn't do anything so brave

Usopp took three balls out of his bag and threw them at Ethan. Ethan took a deep breath and got serious, he didn't use his swords to cut the balls because he didn't know what was inside so he pulled away from their path and then moved towards Usopp quickly.

Then Usopp pulled some nails out of his bag and started throwing them on the ground in front of him. Then he took out a slingshot and put some nails in it and pointed it at the approaching Ethan.

Ethan avoided the spikes that were fired at him easily and then used his wind control to push away the spikes in his path so not do something stupid like jumping because there's a chance that's what Usopp wants.

When he reached near Usopp he swung his swords toward him.

But what Ethan didn't expect was that after Usopp was cut, thick gas appeared from Usopp's severed body.

Then someone threw a lighter from afar.

When the lighter approached Ethan, a huge explosion occurred in the area where Ethan is currently standing.
