Boom—
Without any resistance, these pirates were engulfed by this surging sea of flas.
A mass of flas flew over, landed on the dock, and a figure slowly materialized within it.
It was Ace!!
Ace passed through the sea of flas, the blazing fire swirling around him, making him appear like a sovereign of fla.
His expression was stern, and an inexplicable aura of a powerful warrior emanated from him.
But one sudden sentence instantly broke his composure.
"What are you posing for?! Who are you trying to impress, showing off like a peacock with its tail spread?!"
(╬▔皿▔)╯!!
An expression of anger imdiately appeared on Ace's face, but it quickly vanished, replaced by a smile as he gazed calmly at Sabo and spoke in a flat tone.
"Sabo, the grapes I ate were sweet~"
"Wipe your seat as the second brother clean and wait for to take it, so I can show you just how strong I've beco!"
"Watch closely, and learn well!!"
With that, Ace leaped up and flew straight toward the island's center. Upon reaching a certain height, his right arm abruptly transford into burning flas, and he roared:
"Fire Fist!!"
A massive flaming fist erupted forth, surging toward the town ahead. Countless buildings were instantly destroyed, accompanied by the screams of nurous pirates, leaving a huge, scorched-black fla channel in full view of everyone.
Ace glanced back, cast a contemptuous look at Sabo, then transford into flas and flew deeper inside.
Although Ace hadn't said a word, Sabo inexplicably felt that this silence carried more impact than any insult.
Especially that last look Ace gave him!
It was exactly the sa as Kyle's gaze!!
What the hell are you posing for, Ace? Kyle has the strength to look down on people through his nostrils, but where do you get the confidence??
Did eating the Fla-Fla Fruit make you that full of yourself?
Sabo narrowed his eyes slightly, bent his knees, and shot forward instantly.
No way, he absolutely had to outperform Ace in this mission. The position of second brother could only be his, no one else could take it!!!
Behind them, watching Ace and Sabo charge ahead, the others didn't hesitate either and likewise dashed toward the island.
In fact, to be even faster, each of them started using their own thods.
Luffy suddenly swung his arm forward, stretching it to grab a pillar. He turned his head to glance at the others, flashing a mouthful of white teeth.
"Take your ti, guys! I'm off first!"
The mont the words left his mouth, his body was instantly launched forward by the force of the rebound.
Before the others could say anything, another flat voice ca from beside them.
"ROOM!"
A pale blue hemispherical domain expanded, and the corner of Law's mouth curled up slightly.
"Slow and steady wins the race, no rush!"
With a 'whoosh,' Law's figure also vanished, leaving only a small pebble falling to the ground in his wake.
(⊙o⊙)…
The remaining few, including Zoro, now wore slightly sour expressions.
So what if you have abilities?
All of them are showing off like this?!
Even if you get a head start, so what? A slow sparrow should make an early start; we smart birds can still co from behind even if we don't reach the battlefield as quickly!!
Well, that was the only way they could console themselves!
—
"Swoosh!!"
A piercing sound tore through the air as Kyle's body suddenly shot backward like a cannonball. Mid-flight, he transford into purple lightning and crashed into a building.
Rumble—
The building instantly exploded, shattering into countless pieces of rubble, with billowing dust spreading in all directions.
A mont later, purple lightning erged from the debris and coalesced into Kyle's figure a short distance in front of the rubble pile.
He rubbed his slightly aching chest with his hand, gazed forward, and spoke flatly.
"Old era powerhouses, their strength truly is not to be underestimated."
"But..."
"It's a bit disappointing, though. You haven't mastered Conqueror's Haki infusion. I was kind of hoping to learn it from you."
Ahead of him, Wang Zhi was now bare-chested, revealing his incredibly muscular physique.
Upon hearing Kyle's words, he frowned slightly and retorted testily.
"Kid, do you think mastering Conqueror's Haki infusion is that easy?"
"This is a technique only a handful of the world's top-tier fighters can grasp!!"
Hearing this, Kyle nodded and acknowledged.
"That's true. After all, you're not a top-tier fighter. I expected too much of you."
"You!!!"
Wang Zhi fud with rage.
"Kid, you've certainly got a sharp tongue, but your strength seems a bit lacking!"
"So what if I haven't mastered Conqueror's Haki infusion? It's still more than enough to beat you!!"
A faint smile crept onto Wang Zhi's lips.
Throughout their fight just now, he had practically been dominating Kyle the entire ti, holding the advantage from start to finish.
Sure, the advantage wasn't huge, but an advantage was still an advantage, right?!
"Heh~"
Upon hearing this, Kyle let out a laugh.
"Sorry to break it to you, but the turtle has night school!"
Wang Zhi: ???
Ignoring Wang Zhi's confusion, Kyle continued.
"You don't actually think my close-quarters combat strength is my forte, do you?"
"What?! Just because I fall short of you in physical combat, you think that's more than enough to beat ?"
Until now, Kyle had been fighting Wang Zhi using only his pure physical strength and the three types of Haki.
He hadn't used his Devil Fruit ability at all.
And yet, this was enough to give Wang Zhi a sense of superiority?
If that was the case, then he'd have to properly educate the man!
Zap!!
With a flash of lightning, Kyle's figure instantly vanished from the spot. When he reappeared, he was right in front of Wang Zhi, his fist wreathed in lightning, slamming violently toward him.
!!!
The figure that suddenly appeared before him caught Wang Zhi off guard. By the ti he realized what was happening, it was too late—Kyle's lightning-wreathed fist had already struck him.
Boom—
A trendous force, mixed with wild, crackling lightning, erupted from Kyle's fist. Wang Zhi's body was sent flying backward, purple lightning enveloping him and incessantly emitting crackling sounds.
And that wasn't all. From the sky, a bolt of purple lightning as thick as a water barrel suddenly descended, striking the airborne Wang Zhi directly and slamming him into the ground.
Crash—
A terrifying shockwave accompanied by a deafening roar surged forth. A massive crater instantly appeared in the ground, with enormous cracks spreading outwards in a spiderweb pattern centered on the pit.
Kyle hovered in the sky, with no intention of giving Wang Zhi a chance to catch his breath. Terrifying purple lightning surged from his body once more, all of it striking downward into the crater below.
Violent lightning baptized the land. Countless pirates on Hachinosu all looked up at the terrifying lightning radiating from the heavens, their hearts trembling.
They could feel the breath of death within that lightning.
"Wh-What the hell is that?! A natural disaster?!"
