The setting sun sank into the outline of the mountains, and the sky and the earth became even darker.

……

In the small mountain village, the villagers couldn't help but look in the direction of the foot of the mountain.

The village chief and Lynch, why haven't they come back yet?

……

The man wearing a half-height silk top hat and carrying an inverted J-shaped cane at his waist slowly gathered his broad white wings and stood up at the top of the tombstone, his figure blurring the light and shade.

He ...... ...... is this man?! The old village chief's eyes widened not far away. Is that the one - 'Sheriff the Devil'?! ”

"Hehehe......" Lafayette ignored the shocked old man, took off the cane on his waist and shook it around, bowed his head and chuckled at Lynch, "I won't come down, and then, what are you going to do?" ”

Lafayette was answered by Lynch's punch that went straight at his pale face.

Lafayette's chuckle remained unchanged as he moved lightly to the top of the tombstone, easily dodging Lynch's punch as if he were dancing.

Lynch threw himself in mid-air and twisted strangely, without bumping into the tombstone.

With his hands on the ground, Lynch's muscles bulged and he jumped back with a thud and whipped Lafayette's back in the head.

Lafayette pressed her half-height silk top hat and gracefully crouched down at the top of the tombstone, once again letting Lynch's attack miss.

Boom, boom, boom......

Lynch gathered around the tombstone and pounced on Lafayette again and again, all of which were dodged by his strange footwork movements and body movements.

The devil sheriff seemed to have completely seen through Lynch's movements, and he didn't touch a single corner of his clothes.

"Hehehe...... I didn't expect that the original little pirate who was not in the stream has become good! ”

Lafayette let out a feminine chuckle, stepped lightly, dodged Lynch's pounce, gently flicked the inverted J-shaped cane, and hooked Lynch's neck with a backhand.

Lynch grabbed the cane hooked around his neck and was strangled so that his face turned red—

This is the time!

Ah, '. B』！

Lynch has no idea what the strength of Lafayette is at this stage.

Will it be domineering?

What is the bottom line of the fruit's ability?

I don't know, I don't know anything.

The only way Lynch can win the other party is a stand-in!

If the stand-in is still invincible, it makes no difference if you shoot early or late.

But if it doesn't work for Lafayette...... Lynch can only try to get the best chance of winning.

That is the moment when Lafayette took the initiative to attack.

Even if he is domineering, he is most likely to be negligent for a moment......

From the moment Lafayette appeared, he obviously hadn't communicated with the body once, but he had a tacit understanding to hide himself at the beginning, waiting for the stand-in armor...... At the moment when the main body was attacked by Lafayette, it immediately flew in front of the birdman on the tombstone like a dark ghostly shadow.

The eyes on the visor glowed with a cold white light. Its flame-streaked palm, claw-shaped, stretched out towards Lafayette's chest......

Lafayette's face changed suddenly.

For the first time, he really lost his temper.

In a hurry, Lafayette only had time to twist his body strangely, and his arms instantly turned into white wings, bang, flapping his wings vigorously, and retreating slightly into the air.

The palms of the mecha covered in flame patterns intertwined with the body of the devil sheriff.

“……？！”

『……？！』

When Lynch and the stand-in armor saw this scene, they were both surprised at the same time, and their hearts sank suddenly.

Burst...... A sprinkling of blood splattered in midair.

『. B' only had time to materialize at the moment when his fingertips overlapped Lafayette's chest, and in just half a second, three bloody wounds were torn out on the opponent's chest.

Lynch grabbed the cane around his neck and was carried into the air by the other party.

With a force in his waist and abdomen, Lynch rolled up and kicked his feet hard at Lafayette's temple, which was fluttering in the air with one wing.

“……”

Lafayette's wingtips hooked his cane, and he slammed Lynch to the ground with a calm face.

Rumble!

Lynch fell to the ground hard, his back curving in pain.

"Xu Lun!!"

Lynch shouted and got up in the dust.

“……？！” Robin, who was standing not far away on the old village chief's side, was stopped, her hands were already crossed in front of her chest, and she was going to use the ability of Flowey to deal with the birdman in mid-air and help Lynch.

Lynch shook his head at her slightly.

If you use the Flowey Fruit ability in front of Lafayette, it is very likely that Robin's identity will be exposed. This time it is no better than before, the utility of the stand-in is greatly reduced, and Lynch is not sure that he can defeat the devilish sheriff in front of him......

"What the hell was that...... What an amazing killing intent!! ”

Lafayette flapped her wings in mid-air, with a palpitating embarrassment.

At that moment, it gave him a chill of death, a sense of danger that was about to pinch his heart.

Killing intent?

Killing Intent??

Hearing this, Lin Qi raised his head, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help twitching. What the hell, and this kind of setting?!

『. B』When you use a killing move, do you release the so-called killing intent? How did I not know I still had this skill!

Lynch's face sank like water. Is this my strong killing intent, or is this dead-faced birdman too acute?!

"I was surprised to see in the newspaper that you, a boy who should have died a long time ago, became a so-called young hunter......"

Lafayette folded her wings and landed on top of the tombstone again.

The white shirt on his chest was torn out three times, and half of his body was covered in red blood.

The wings turned back into the palms, Lafayette lowered his head and touched the blood all over his body, put it on the tip of his tongue and licked it, revealing a smile like a pervert, "Now it seems that you who can come back from the dead have indeed become a little different...... Let me guess, was it some kind of Devil Fruit that I ate by luck? ”

"Hurry up and get me down!!"

The old village chief couldn't bear it any longer, roared angrily, rushed over with his cane, and smashed it hard at Lafayette at the top of the tombstone.

The crutch swung into the air, and the old man fell to the ground.

Lafayette's ghostly figure appeared on the ground, ignoring the old village chief's intentions, and walked straight towards Lynch.

"That makes me want to kill you even more......" Lafayette's crimson lips pulled out an arc, revealing a cold and bloodthirsty smile, and he flicked his cane at will, "Such an interesting criminal, killing little by little, will definitely be more interesting......"

The fire-streaked mech's palm reached out and poked into his head.

Lafayette's pupils constricted, and the strong killing intent pierced his temples like a thousand needles, and it jumped suddenly.

He twisted his head sideways, dodging the '. . . Another raid by B.

Lynch burst out with his feet and took the opportunity to rush up.

Whew—the cane brought a heavy wind sound, and Lafayette drew a stick at Lynch, who was rushing at him, as he dodged.

Dry! The experience of combat is too different...... Lynch was hit on the head and screamed in low pain, blood pouring down.

Lafayette threw his fist at the uninhabited air of murderous intent, but there was nothing. Instead, it provoked the familiar cold killing intent again...... His pupils shrank, and his footwork twisted his body strangely, narrowly brushing against the killing intent.

Poof, a shallow wound opened on his pale cheek.

"It's weird...... Lafayette frowned at the top of his brow, "what kind of ability is it?" Is it a tiny thing that my vision can't see, or is it ......"

Without giving him time to think, Lynch, whose face was covered in blood, attacked again.

『. B』 Cooperate with the body and flank Lafayette together.

"Hehehe...... Very weird ability indeed! ”

Who knows Lafayette in Lynch with '. B's incessant staggered attacks, and he became more and more at ease.

"Well, I'm starting to get used to it a little bit......

Riven and lilt like a bird, Lafayette staggered to avoid the ubiquitous cold killing intent, and kicked Lynch in the abdomen with a black leather shoe, kicking him far away.

Damn it!

Killing intent, killing intent, what the hell is killing intent?!

Lynch was covered in pain and bruises, and he gasped for breath and tried several times before he got up again.

How can I eliminate the '. B's killing intent?

Lynch lifted his bruised eyelids and looked over there. B's sneak attack was dodged by Lafayette more easily.

Da, da, da...... Lafayette slowly walked over to the embarrassed Lynch, and shook his cane gently, "It seems that you have exhausted your skills?" ”

Suddenly, his leg was grabbed from behind.

"You almost killed this kid!" The old village chief dragged Lafayette's feet and said loudly, "I won't let you ...... again"

"Sir, please don't get in my way." Lafayette raised his foot and kicked the old village chief aside.

Lafayette continued to walk, but suddenly tripped again. A few hands grew out of his legs, holding him back.

Robin crossed his arms, bit his lip tightly, and resolutely used his power.
