While Buggy releases the slaves, his crewmates are fighting the Iron Shovel executives. They fight on different spots on Iron Shovel's ship. All of them except for Deon & Manba have a one on one battles.
Deon & Manba fight with Rodan the long-arm tribe man who wields a pair of cutlasses. Both Manba & Deon attack Rodan from 2 sides, but the long-ard man can defend very well. His moves are strange and make Deon & Manba confused.
With longer arms and more joints, Rodan can make unpredictable moves with his cutlasses. He also has longer range because of his long arms. His moves confused Manba & Deon who never faced a long-arm tribe man before.
"Now I know why Cricket told us to fight him together," says Manba.
"Yeah, this guy is very tricky, and it will be very difficult to fight him alone," says Deon.
Manba attacks with his spear again and still doesn't use the bazooka. He acts as the main attacker while Deon is the secondary attacker. It's because Manba has a weapon so he can block Rodan's cutlasses while Deon can't.
Both Manba & Deon still can't use armant haki, so they need to be careful in their battle. They need to use their Observation Haki to the max and evade every attack from Rodan. But that's not an easy thing to do as they get cut a few tis.
Deon is in his hybrid form already and attacks Rodan when there's an opening. He mostly uses his fists and also his long tongue to attack from afar. Manba & Deon have good cooperation in their fight even though it's the first ti they do it.
But Rodan seems to be good at Observation Haki and can always block their attacks. He is also more experienced than both of them in battle. His moves are refined and he doesn't make many mistakes. So this battle is difficult for Manba & Deon.
On another side, Palu is also having a tough battle against Muto the swordsman. Muto can move fast & agilely with his katana while Palu's movents are slower. Their weapons' weights affect their movents, after all.
Palu needs to use his Warhamr's handle many tis to block Muto's sword because he doesn't have ti to move the head as Muto's sword is too fast. His attacks are stronger & heavier, but Muto can always dodge them because Muto is faster.
None of them can hit each other's bodies so far and just clash with their weapons. Palu always blocks Muto's attacks, while Muto's always evade Palu's attacks. So it makes Muto realize that Palu can use Observation Haki.
"You can use Observation Haki, aren't you?" asks Muto.
"Observation Haki?" asks Palu as if he doesn't know it.
"Don't try to fool , rookie. There's no way you could read my attacks beforehand and block all of them without using Observation Haki," says Muto.
"Ah, it's because I blocked your attacks, huh? What I used isn't what you called Observation Haki, it's Mantra. My dad taught it to and the na is Mantra," says Palu while smirking.
"Mantra, such a strange na. But it must be just another na for Observation Haki. Still, that is not enough because there's another form of haki," says Muto while grinning.
Muto's right hand that wields his katana suddenly gets blackened. Then his katana also get covered in black tallic color. He activates his armant haki now to fight with Palu.
"You should've never heard about this. This is Armant Haki, a very important power in New World. With this, I will be able to break your Warhamr," says Muto.
Palu makes a surprised look, but he laughs in his heart. He knows Armant Haki, but this arrogant prick tries to show off to him. So he plays along and acts like he doesn't know anything. It will be fun to see Muto's reaction when knowing that he can use Armant too.
'This bastard will be very mad when knowing that I can use it. Hehehe, I will let you show off now and slap you hard with a surprising fact later,' thinks Palu.
Palu coat his Warhamr with colorless armant to make it a little harder. If he doesn't do it, then his Warhamr will not survive Muto's attacks. With armant haki hardening, Muto's attacks will give more damage, so he needs to harden his weapon too.
But Palu still doesn't want to reveal that he can use armant. Muto doesn't know that he has it and it is his advantage. He will use it as a surprise later, so he save it for now. Besides, Palu always likes to play with his opponents.
anwhile, Jude's fight doesn't seem good at all. Her lack of experience against opponents who can touch her logia body is very clear now. Furthermore, her enemy, Risel, uses a long whip that can move unpredictably.
Risel moves her whip around very fast and forced Jude to move back. Jude has got hit many tis and has many wounds on her skin. She can only attack a few tis because Risel keeps pushing her back.
"What's wrong, little girl? Aren't you a logia? It's supposed to be the best power, right?" asks Risel with a mocking tone.
"Ugh, the whip can move anywhere like a snake. She can block all my attacks even though I've attacked her from every side. What should I do?" ponders Jude while evading a whip attack from above.
Jude focuses on evading while thinking of a way to fight back. She has trained hard for 6 months and can't let it go to waste. Although she isn't a fighter type, she still won't let herself lose in a battle like this.
The other logia user, Enel is also in a problem like Jude. He fights with the tall & lanky man, Bon, who wields a pair of Tonfa. Enel has got hit many tis since they started their battle. He is fast, but Bon always moved one step ahead of him.
Since they started their battle, Bon hasn't moved from his spot. He just waited for Enel to attack him and counter with his Tonfas. Bon knows that Enel is a hot-headed person since Enel rushed first to attack Nando.
So he used it in his strategy and just wait for Enel to attack him because he knows Enel will not wait for him to attack. Then just like he predicted, Enel really attacked him nurous tis without any rest.
He just needs to read Enel's movents using his Observation Haki and counter them. That way, he can counter Enel's attacks and save his energy. Bon is a smart man, very different from his current opponent.
Enel gets angrier as ti passed because his injuries keep increasing. He has attacked many tis from long and short-range, but none of them worked. Bon can deflect the long-range lightning attacks like Buggy and when he gets closer, Bon always hits him.
"Damn, what should I do?" ponders Enel while holding his stomach that has just got hit.
"It's useless no matter what you'll do. Our level is just too different. You might be a logia while I don't have any devil fruit. But weakling will still be weakling no matter what weapon that they have," says Bon while smirking.
"What'd you say?" asks Enel angrily.
Bon smirks seeing Enel gets angry after hearing the provocation. Enel starts to attack Bon blindly after getting provoked. He is too hot-headed and very easy to manipulate in mind gas.
Mantis sees it and clicks her tongue, "Tsk, that idiot. It seems we need to put his head in a fridge later so it can beco cool."
"Don't worry about that. You will keep his head in the fridge after it gets cut. No, we will keep all your heads in the fridge after we cut them off," says the bald monk, Tong, sadistically as he swings his bo-staff at Mantis.
"Ugh, dude, that's just a parable. And you're a monk, so talk like one," says Mantis as she blocks the staff.
