Chapter 28: Defeating the Straw Hats
🕑 Added 2025-08-06 15:07:02 +0000 UTCIt was thanks to Shisui, who appeared next to Kuma.
And put cuffs on him.
The wrist of this right hand had been secured with Seastone handcuffs.
The power of Kuma's Devil Fruit diminished sharply almost instantly, unable to achieve the effects it had in its normal state.
Without giving Kuma time to react.
"[Water Release: Water Prison Technique]!"
Itachi appeared on top of Kuma's shoulder.
At the same time, he opened a scroll, releasing the seawater stored within, and executed the water prison technique, covering Kuma's head with seawater.
Originally, this water would have been enough to cover an ordinary person's entire body, but for Kuma, it only reached his shoulders.
Yami and Shisui used steel wire to pull Kuma's hands away directly, tying the steel wire to a nearby tree to prevent the paw pads from touching his body and avoiding any dangerous counterattack situations.
"Their fighting methods are indeed too simple, nothing but head-on confrontation…"
After confirming the capture of Kuma, Yami was in the mood to comment.
Usopp and Chopper just now, including the unconscious Luffy, had all been replaced by his shadow clones when Kuma used the large-scale pressure cannon.
He had used them as bait, and hadn't expected it to be so successful.
Defeating Kuma was easy, but capturing this guy did take some effort.
Sure enough, tactical approaches still proved superior.
Using this kind of psychological warfare made the solution much easier.
Otherwise, the eye techniques used would consume too much chakra.
Due to the side effects, Yami still preferred not to rely on Mangekyō power to solve problems, whether for himself, Shisui, or Itachi.
"It seems that genjutsu isn't very effective against those who are relatively strong," Shisui analyzed thoughtfully.
Among the genjutsu users, he had been the most effective, followed by Itachi.
However, Yami actually had the least research into genjutsu techniques.
Shisui was surprised that he could already use such a technique.
"These fighters have experienced many battles and possess very strong mental fortitude. Naturally, they aren't comparable to ordinary people."
"In the ninja world, the effectiveness of genjutsu is actually limited to ninja below elite jōnin level. Kage-level experts will basically not be affected much by genjutsu."
"Of course, Shisui, you are different. You may be able to surpass this level, but it's difficult for ordinary Uchiha to reach it. You still need to rely on all-around strength to become stronger. Genjutsu alone won't suffice."
Yami provided Shisui with some enlightenment.
He wanted to avoid this guy becoming stubborn and just continuing down one path.
"Understood," Shisui nodded and said no more.
But at this time, Kuma moved.
His head, covered by seawater, opened his mouth directly, and a flash of light slowly gathered within.
But before the flash could be emitted, Yami used a short blade to directly pierce Kuma's mouth and penetrate through the entire back of his head.
"I forgot he was a cyborg. Even if the Devil Fruit abilities and body cannot be used, he can still fire lasers."
Yami spoke calmly after delivering the finishing blow.
Then, after waiting for a while, Kuma was confirmed not dead but had lost any ability to fight back.
"You two watch him. I'll finish up."
"Leave five people to help Shisui and the others. The rest will join me."
Yami then issued his orders.
After the words fell, five people appeared around Shisui and the others.
Yami rushed directly toward the forest, preparing to capture Straw Hat Luffy.
This kind of enemy with exploitable weak points was much easier to deal with.
If he were facing someone like Dracule Mihawk, beating him would only be possible through head-on strength.
"Damn it, Firebird Star!"
Usopp was panicking.
He hadn't expected that he, being the weaker one at this time, would actually be able to help move the team to safety.
An attack was fired from his large slingshot, setting the forest on fire, trying to stop CP9's pursuit.
"Too slow."
"[Finger Pistol]!"
Kaku dodged the attack with [Soru] and came to Usopp's side.
He raised his hand and prepared to pierce the heart of this man who shared similar attributes with himself. The nose.
"CLANG!"
But his finger struck Wado Ichimonji's blade, making a crisp sound.
"Tch."
But at the same time, Zoro's body began bleeding from his wounds directly due to this force.
"Go…" Zoro said in a deep voice.
"Zoro," Usopp was very hesitant, although his natural instinct was to run away.
But this felt so disloyal.
"You're moving too slowly."
But before Kaku could continue to take action, Yami walked out of the forest first.
Kaku was shocked.
"What about Kuma?" he couldn't help but ask.
"Of course it's settled," Yami finished speaking.
This time, he appeared between Zoro and Usopp.
Zoro's pupils contracted, and his free left hand prepared to draw a sword and slash at the man who dared to appear behind him.
"[Chidori Current]"
But Yami released energy throughout his body, and like an electric grid, the electrical arcs spread out in all directions.
Usopp and Zoro were unable to dodge and were directly hit by the electrical current.
The two of them were engulfed in lightning.
Usopp fainted and Zoro lost control of his body, falling directly to the ground while retaining only a trace of consciousness.
"I won't take away the weapon you place your faith in."
"But the other two are considered trophies, and I'm taking them."
As Yami spoke, he took the black sword Shusui and the Sandai Kitetsu from Zoro's waist.
Zoro's eyes burned with anger, but there was nothing he could do.
This approach of directly confronting and taking a swordsman's weapons made Zoro nearly faint.
‘I just got Shusui too…’
"Don't kill them. Take these two back to the castle," Yami glanced at Kaku and spoke directly.
Kaku didn't dare to say anything, so he silently picked up the two of them and walked back.
"Clan Leader, the target is approximately one thousand meters to the southwest," a member of the Uchiha clan appeared and provided information to Yami.
Yami, holding the two swords, rushed toward the direction his clansman had indicated.

"You perverted bastard, I'll beat you to death this time." Fukurou waved his fist and kept striking at Franky.
Meanwhile, Sanji and Nico Robin were trying to deal with Kalifa, Jabra, and the others.
"Damn it! I must protect everyone." Chopper was holding his fifty-berry bounty and preparing for a more intense fight.
But then…
"CLANG!"
A Seastone handcuff fell to the ground.
The Seastone handcuffs on Lucci's hands were broken open by Nero.
He was the only member who, like Fukurou, didn't possess Devil Fruit abilities.
"These damn pests are so noisy…" Rob Lucci's eyes were cold.
After suffering so much humiliation, he felt like venting his anger.
