# Chapter 51: Fight Our Way Out (Fourth Update, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival Everyone)
At the same time, inside the port beneath the King's Plateau.
All machinery on the port had stopped operating. Doflamingo sat on a wooden chair, surrounded by Pica and the others.
"You... actually dare to come to my territory to arrest people, and to arrest my ally."
The veins on Doflamingo's forehead bulged, clearly showing his uncontrollable rage.
"How frightening~"
A slow, deliberate voice sounded.
"Who gave the order? The Five Elders?"
Doflamingo looked toward a figure sitting on a cargo ship.
"I advise you, it's better not to know."
The lazy voice spoke again. Hearing this, Doflamingo was stunned.
"I'd better not know? That is..."
"That's right, so just stay put here."
The figure jumped down from the cargo ship. He wore frog sunglasses, a white coat, and inside the coat was a shit-yellow outfit.
The coat fluttered, with the word 'Justice' written on the back. This was the iconic attire of a Marine officer. Combined with the lazy tone, the identity of the newcomer was obvious — Marine Admiral Borsalino, most commonly known as Kizaru.
Kizaru was at least three meters tall. Or rather, none of the active Marine Admirals were shorter than three meters.
"It's been so long, White Night should be missing me quite a bit."
Kizaru smiled, walking up toward the underground port. Seeing Kizaru walk away, Doflamingo took out a Den Den Mushi. He wasn't worried about Su Xiao's safety, but about who would continue making Apollo for him.
"No one can save him now. But he's an important researcher, even if he is dangerous."
Kizaru waved his hand dismissively at Doflamingo, signaling him not to cause any trouble.
Inside the villa, Su Xiao stood at the stairwell entrance on the third floor. The enemies outside hadn't all flooded into the villa, which made him wonder — did pirates really have such combat discipline?
A faint, almost imperceptible sound of footsteps came from below. Just as Su Xiao was about to charge into the stairwell, a boom came from above.
Thud!
The entire villa shook. An enemy had broken through the fourth floor's outer wall and charged inside. The fourth floor had been reinforced, no less.
Su Xiao turned and rushed into the stairwell, heading downstairs. His goal was the first floor, where there was a secret passage — an emergency escape route used by the Don Quixote Family. This passage bypassed the underground port, with its exit in a civilian house beneath the King's Plateau. Bubu Wang had discovered it by chance.
As Su Xiao rushed into the stairwell, a dense crowd of enemies surged up from below. Although Su Xiao's Instinct had already sensed a large group approaching from below, compared to the enemy on the fourth floor, those below were much easier to handle.
Boom, boom, boom...
Intense explosions came from the fourth floor — the alchemy bombs Su Xiao had planted in advance.
The explosions continued, and the entire villa began to tilt.
Just as Su Xiao descended a few steps, a large group of soldiers in white uniforms charged toward him. Seeing their attire, Su Xiao's confusion cleared — it was the Marines!
They met head-on. The Marines immediately stopped, forming two rows — the front row crouching, the back row standing — all raising their flintlock rifles. Some even took out wire nets. From the looks of it, they intended to capture Su Xiao alive.
"Capture alive! Aim for the limbs!"
A Marine Major roared. The Marines around him immediately pulled their triggers.
A light blue energy shield wall appeared in front of Su Xiao. Debris flew from under his feet as he charged straight toward the Marines.
Bang, bang...
Gunpowder smoke dispersed. Lead bullets clinked against the energy shield.
Su Xiao closed the distance to the Marines in an instant. He dismissed the energy shield while swinging his long blade forward.
Now in the three-meter-wide stairwell, as he slashed, the tip of his blade sank into the wall. The wall couldn't stop Dragon-Slaying Flash's edge at all.
Pfft, pfft, pfft...
Limbs and severed body parts flew. Nothing could block Su Xiao's slash for even a moment.
The Marine Major stood frozen in place. Two blood lines slowly appeared on his neck and chest.
Piercing screams spread, but subsided in an extremely short time.
Clang.
When Su Xiao delivered his final slash, he was already on the second floor of the villa. Behind him in the stairwell, a large pile of chopped corpses was stacked together. The walls were covered in slash marks, splattered with blood.
"Heh, heh..."
A Marine sat leaning against the blood-spattered wall, clutching his spurting throat, making unintelligible sounds.
Su Xiao flicked his long blade, splattering blood on the wall.
"Charge up! Capture alive!"
Roars came from the stairwell between the first and second floors, followed by heavy footsteps.
Dozens of Marines crowded up the stairwell. Though packed together, they weren't chaotic, ready to form a battle formation at any moment.
A Marine at the front suddenly stopped. His eyes gradually widened, staring in horror at the hellish stairwell passage.
With a whoosh, a blade flashed before the Marine's eyes.
"Above! He's clinging to the ceiling!"
Pfft, pfft...
Another round of slashing and screams, then silence in the stairwell. The explosions from the fourth floor also stopped.
Whoosh — a blur rushed out from the flames on the fourth floor. The figure's white uniform was scorched black, but his speed was extremely fast.
This figure charged into the stairwell, followed by a crash. He hit the wall — the blood on the floor was too slippery, combined with his own speed, nearly causing him to fall.
The figure had short gray-white hair. Though an old man, the torso beneath his uniform was well-built, showing no signs of age. He was the Marine Hero, Garp.
"This... bastard."
Garp looked around at the situation in the stairwell. The scene before him made him furious.
Garp vanished instantly, continuing to charge downstairs.
At the stairwell entrance on the first floor, Su Xiao slashed a Marine's neck. If he fell into the World Government's hands, heaven knew what would happen to him.
"No, don't come near me."
A Marine pressed himself against the corner of the wall, his legs pushing against the ground. The slippery blood on the floor and the fear in his heart prevented him from standing up.
As he charged forward, Su Xiao took out D·Assassination.
Pfft!
A headshot. The Marines had surrounded the villa, so Su Xiao naturally showed no mercy. They were enemies now.
Putting away D·Assassination, Su Xiao continued advancing toward the first floor without stopping.
A fifth wave of Marines surged into the stairwell. They didn't rush in all at once, but entered wave by wave to maintain formation.
A lead bullet flew toward him. Su Xiao tilted his head to dodge, slashing diagonally as he advanced.
A severed arm flew up. Because Dragon-Slaying Flash was too sharp, the Marine didn't even notice his arm had been cut off.
Just as Su Xiao prepared to finish this Marine with one slash, a rushing wind came from behind him. Someone entered his perception range. Though Instinct could detect them, Su Xiao's body couldn't react in time.
Su Xiao suddenly vanished. He used Dragon Shadow Flash to penetrate space, arriving on the first floor. Around him were a large group of confused Marines.
Bang!
A loud crash came from behind Su Xiao. He instinctively crouched low.
Crack, crack, crack — the energy shield attached to Su Xiao's back like a crystal layer.
The Marines around him were elites. They almost instantly drew their cutlasses. At the same time, a figure charged toward Su Xiao.
Gurgle, gurgle...
A large wave of soap bubbles surged toward Su Xiao. These bubbles gave him a spine-chilling feeling.
Just then, another piercing sound of air being torn came from behind Su Xiao. He had to dodge the soap bubbles in front, guard against the surrounding Marines, and deal with the incredibly fierce bastard attacking from behind — someone so fast that even Instinct could barely track him.
Boom!
An incredibly hard fist slammed into Su Xiao's back. With a crack, the 700-point energy shield layer shattered. Don't think the energy shield layer was fragile. True defense wasn't about blocking head-on. These broken shield layers had at least neutralized 70% of the impact from that punch.
Su Xiao flew forward like a shot. He crashed through several walls of the villa before landing in the courtyard.
Su Xiao thrust Dragon-Slashing Flash into the ground. Using the blade, he regained his balance, both feet planting firmly. The next moment, he charged straight out of the courtyard.
Boom, boom, boom...
Like a tank crashing out of the villa, large chunks of building debris flew everywhere.
Just as Su Xiao had covered a hundred meters, a yellow light shot to his front.
"Kizaru."
Su Xiao's steps abruptly stopped. Light blue light surged within him as he prepared to activate Demon Hunting Hour.
