Zoro vs. Pica (2)
The Rock Man was very proud of himself because, in addition to using a knife, he now had another ability: to move through rocks.
If he senses danger, he can immediately turn his body into stone, and no one can stop him. Because he's standing on the rock, he can instantly merge his body into it, turning his original body into stone.
In this way, if someone wants to attack him, they can only attack his body, which has turned into rock, while his true body has long since left and gone underground.
The reason Zoro didn't kill him when he got this close earlier was precisely because of this.
Therefore, he is not afraid of Zoro at all. If he can't beat Zoro, he immediately turns into rock, and Zoro can only hit his rocky body, while he himself is unharmed.
"Hmph, don't get cocky. Let me tell you, you better not let me catch you off guard, or I'll chop you up," Zoro said coldly.
This guy's abilities are tricky; defeating him won't be easy! He can hide inside the rocks at any time, which is very frustrating for him.
"You'll never get your chance, hmm," the Rock Man said smugly.
"Alright, let's give it a try!" Zoro shouted.
"Really? Then come and chase me." The Rock Man chuckled, then stopped attacking Zoro and headed away into the distance.
He traveled underground, and once he reached a certain place, he began his attack. Anyone who wasn't on his side was slaughtered, whether they were pirates, marines, or even ordinary civilians.
He didn't care at all; his goal was clear: to kill all the rebels around him.
This is the young master's order, and his final order is to kill all the rebels. Now that they are all dead, they can finally rest easy.
He went on his way, attacking countless people, all of whom died under his attacks.
Because he used his enormous hand, which had turned into rock, to slam them all to the ground.
His palms were huge, and they were all made of hard rock; no ordinary person could withstand that. As a result, many people died, their faces filled with despair.
"Damn it, targeting ordinary people like that, he's asking for death!" Zoro was furious; Pica's attack was unbearable.
Pica attacked pirates and marines, but he didn't care. Those people were already living on the edge; they knew what the consequences would be for doing that kind of work.
But these people were just ordinary people; Pica attacked them, which was tantamount to torture and murder. Therefore, he could not accept it.
He glanced around; Pica had already run far away, and it was too late for him to give chase.
However, he did not give up and kept running forward, trying to catch up with the other person.
However, Pica was moving too fast underground, and the distance between him and his opponent was getting farther and farther away.
Zoro grew increasingly anxious as he watched.
"Let me lend you a hand." Just as Zoro was feeling down, a voice entered his mind.
Zoro glanced to his left and saw a robot running alongside him. The robot was flying, while he was running.
"Oh, right, give me a ride right now! I need to catch that bastard." Zoro laughed as soon as he saw the robot.
Because the robot is very fast, if the robot is willing to give him a ride, he can catch up with the other party very quickly.
"Okay, but it would be more convenient for you to fly yourself," the robot said.
"Fly by myself?" Zoro was taken aback by this, somewhat confused as to what the robot meant.
"Fanxin asked me to deliver a Flight Armor to you. Now you can wear it and fight," the robot said. "However, remember, the fuel inside this Flight Armor will only last you one hour. You must defeat Pica within one hour, otherwise, you won't be able to fly anymore."
"Of course we'll help, but at that time, with us holding you, it will be very inconvenient for you to fight. So, you must hurry."
"Oh, Flight Armor? Okay, give it to me now!" Zoro said immediately upon hearing this.
With his Flight Armor, he could freely pursue the Rock Man. He could go wherever the Rock Man went.
"Don't resist," the robot said.
Zoro nodded, and continued running without resistance.
The robot immediately attached a belt to Zoro's waist. After he finished, it said, "When you want to use it, press the button on your abdomen, and it will fly. When you're done, press that button again, and it will automatically stop. As for the direction, you'll have to figure it out yourself; I won't explain it for now."
"Alright, you can go after them now." The robot didn't follow any further. Its mission was complete.
It came here specifically to deliver the Flight Armor to Zoro is unable to chase the Rock Man, which is a very troublesome situation.
The Rock Man was causing chaos everywhere, while Fanxin was scrambling to keep up. Therefore, Fanxin had no choice but to send Zoro to stop the Rock Man; otherwise, who knows what kind of trouble he might cause.
This Flight Armor was delivered to Fanxin by the robot at Fanxin's request. With it, Zoro's speed will be able to catch up with the Rock Man. It's unlikely that the Rock Man can escape Zoro's pursuit.
The robot stopped and stood there watching.
Zoro, following the robot's instructions, pressed the button on his abdomen.
A moment later, his body was covered by armor. Zoro ran for a while, then jumped up, and was in the air.
At first, he wasn't quite used to flying, but after a little over a minute of getting used to it, he could perfectly control the Flight Armor. Then, without hesitation, he headed straight for the Rock Man.
He quickly arrived at the Rock Man's location.
He removed his Flight Armor and then attacked the Rock Man.
"Damn it, how could you do something like this? Did you even ask me?" Zoro shouted angrily.
"Hmph, I can do whatever I want, what right do you have to tell me what to do!"
The Rock Man snorted and said smugly, "Zoro, you can't stop me. I've decided to destroy the entire island. Heh heh, that way, no one here will survive."
"With me here, you can't do it," Zoro said with a snort.
Previously, he couldn't stop the Rock Man because the Rock Man was simply too fast underground for him to catch. However, now that he has his Flight Armor, his speed can be increased. It's unlikely the Rock Man will be able to escape.
"Really? Then let's give it a try!" The Rock Man grinned upon hearing this, and then continued on his way.
Zoro continued his pursuit, launching attacks as soon as he entered the Rock Man's attack range, giving him no chance to escape. The Rock Man, in turn, frequently summoned rocks to block the attack.
A stalemate has been reached between the two sides.
"Boss, the Rock Man is tough to deal with. Zoro chased after him, but he couldn't completely force him out. As a result, Zoro's attacks are ineffective," the Little Black Cat said.
A robot was watching from there and relaying the situation to its brain. Therefore, it knew everything that was happening over there.
"Is that so? It seems I have no choice but to intervene, otherwise, even more people will die." Fanxin frowned slightly upon hearing this and said.
Zoro couldn't defeat the rock man in one go, so the Rock Man was able to run around freely. With the Rock Man running around, it was the civilians who suffered.
He was here providing aid, while the people over there were being killed one by one by the Rock Man.
In the end, even more people will die.
Therefore, Fanxin decided to personally take action and stop the Rock Man.
"You're going over there? But the Rock Man is underground," the Little Black Cat said. "Even if you went, it might not be of any use."
"Hehe, I'll throw the Rock Man into the air, that way he won't be able to use his abilities," Fanxin said with a smile. "At this point, I believe Zoro can definitely handle it."
Zoro now possesses Flight Armor, and he's also launched the Rock Man into the air. This presents the perfect opportunity for a decisive blow. If Zoro can't handle this, he's utterly useless.
"Oh, okay then, let's go!" Upon hearing this, the Little Black Cat pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly and said.
This action by Fanxin completely rendered the Rock Man's abilities ineffective. As a result, the Rock Man had no choice but to reveal his true form.
Zoro was struggling to force the Rock Man out, and Fanxin's actions provided him with the perfect opportunity to kill Rock Man.
"Okay, that's settled then!" Fanxin nodded and said.
After saying that, Fanxin Xin immediately took Ren Fang and headed towards the Rock Man.
Ten minutes later, Fanxin arrived at a spot not far from the Rock Man.
"Ren Fang, you stay behind me. After I make my move, immediately spatialize the area where the Rock Man is in contact with the rock, so he can't go underground," Fanxin said.
Ren Fang's ability is to spatialize any object. She spatialized the Rock Man's body, so the Rock Man had no choice but to come out.
Once he's out, Na Fanxin can finally unleash his full potential.
"Understood?" Ren Fang nodded and said.
"Okay, wait a few minutes, I need to get ready." Fanxin Xin nodded and said. After saying that, he began to fuse with the Diamond Beast. If he wanted to defeat the Rock Man in one fell swoop, he had to fuse with the Diamond Beast to increase his combat power.
In this way, he can achieve a quick victory.
The Little Black Cat and Ren Fang nodded and waited on the side.
Fanxin began fusing with the Diamond Beast. He didn't hold back at all, directly fusing all the Diamond Beast into his body. After compression, he returned to the size of a normal human.
"Alright, let's get going! Stay close to me," Fanxin shouted.
Having said that, he didn't hesitate any longer and quickly headed forward.
He quickly blocked the Rock Man. Zoro was on the other side.
"You really are reckless! Do you even know how many people you've killed?" Fanxin said coldly.
The Rock Man was already huge, and now that he's fused with rock, he's even larger. He's causing havoc here, and many people have suffered as a result.
"Hmph, you think you can stop me? You're asking for it!" The Rock Man was enraged. He swung his hand and slapped Fanxin.
"Overestimating yourself." Fanxin scoffed and said, "Ren Fang, attack the ground."
After saying that, he rushed over and grabbed the Rock Man's hand.
He pulled upwards with all his might, intending to grab the other person.
However, he can't do it yet, because the Rock Man's body is fused with the earth.
However, Fanxin was not worried, because Ren Fang had special abilities and could definitely do it.
Ren Fang immediately took action, using her abilities to spatialize the area tens of meters wide and tens of meters deep around the Rock Man.
In this way, the Rock Man would be unable to merge with the underground world. Because if he did that, he would be spatialized.
Once the opponent's body is completely spatialized, he's finished. Therefore, upon sensing danger, the Rock Man will definitely not continue going underground.
As expected, upon seeing that the surrounding space had turned into tiny spaces, the Rock Man's expression changed, and he dared not go any further.
At this moment, Fanxin Xin seized the opportunity to pull the Rock Man out of the ground.
He lifted the other person up with both hands.
"Zoro, you fly up high in the sky right now and wait. I'm going to deliver him to your blade." Fanxin said, looking at Zoro not far away.
Upon hearing this, Zoro immediately understood, then activated his Flight Armor and flew into the sky.
Fanxin then unleashed his ultimate move, rushing to a high point and hurling the Rock Man in his hand high into the air.
He was incredibly strong; the Rock Man had no chance of resisting.
Under his immense force, the Rock Man flew to a very, very high place.
"Heh heh, damn it, now let's see how you use your abilities." Fanxin smiled smugly, then tossed his opponent high into the air, preventing him from touching the ground. Since the opponent couldn't touch the ground, he naturally couldn't use his abilities.
At that moment, Zoro was waiting for his chance to strike; his opponent's life was in grave danger.
However, his Fanxin remained unrelenting.
He pondered for a moment, then looked at Ren Fang and said, "You go too. If Zoro fails, immediately spatialize him completely."
Ren Fang's spatialization couldn't kill the Rock Man, but it could restrict his freedom. If they obtained a part of the Rock Man 'Rock Man body, they could put him in a difficult position.
By then, the Rock Man's fighting power will inevitably decrease significantly. He will definitely suffer a great loss in the end.
"Understood." Ren Fang nodded, put on her Flight Armor, and headed straight for the sky.
