Giant Horn

[Boom!]

'Snow Leopard' Bengelasaisi moved.

But this time his movements were extremely exaggerated. In the instant his figure disappeared in the lightning, he swept out a circle of lightning-filled air currents from the spot.

At the same time, it violently shook the Ship Prison was sealing off this space, causing countless cracks to appear!

His strength is now far beyond what he was before.

Now, Vidal finally got serious, activating his Observation Haki and unleashing a much brighter, forest-green light from his body.

[Bang--]

The silvery-white lightning and the forest-green meteor collided head-on in the middle of the deck, and the next second it seemed as if endless light and power erupted.

The deck beneath their feet, already riddled with cracks and holes, could no longer withstand such devastation and collapsed. Even the entire hull trembled continuously during their battle.

But this was just the beginning, and it was also the first time that Vidal, wearing the Justice Coat, had engaged in a fierce battle with pirates.

This is the scene he's always dreamed of!

Bengelasaisi? I'll remember that name, I promise! Vidal felt his blood begin to boil.

Bengelasaisi is currently displaying formidable strength.

The Mink Tribe's inherent talent for electricity, combined with the amplification from their Zoan Devil Fruit, their initial mastery of Armament Haki, and the boost from their 'Sulong' form.

The boost from this state wasn't just to his most basic abilities like speed, strength, and reaction time; even the power of his previously unremarkable electric current was greatly enhanced!

This is almost equivalent to him still possessing the Awakening and un-elementalized Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability.

All of this combined makes him far surpass those future Supernovas with bounties of hundreds of millions!

Vidal didn't know if Bengelasaisi's current strength had reached the level of a bounty of one hundred million for this era.

But the power he felt from the frantic exchange of punches was enough to give him a good beating!

[Call out!]

[Bang!!]

A silver meteor streaked down, leaving a long trail of lightning behind it, smashing once again into a piece of wood deep inside the ship.

But in less than a second, the silver light shot out again, battling fiercely with the green light in the air, with countless bolts of lightning constantly driving away the thick darkness around them.

But less than a minute later, it was hit hard again, but this time it did not immediately fight back.

"Uh--"

Bengelasaisi lay on the lowest plank of wood, his face contorted in pain, breathing heavily. Then, he coughed up a mouthful of blood, staining the patch of white hair in front of him.

"How... how could this happen?!"

Why can't I still beat them?

Why?!

He looked up at Vidal under the bright moon in disbelief. Above the man's head, dozens of green lantern-like vines swayed in the wind.

"This is our Mink Tribe's strongest form, so why are we so powerless against that guy?"

Bengelasaisi was furious, extremely furious, almost to the point of rage; his entire chest was filled with a raging fire of anger.

"Ahh!"

"Unforgivable! I'll kill you!!"

This rage sustained him as he endured the pain, unleashing an even more dazzling burst of lightning and power. Armament Haki condensed on his claws, radiating a dark metallic sheen.

[Bang--]

The next moment, a burst of silver-blue lightning exploded, shattering the last remaining layer of the ship's hull beneath their feet and sending them soaring into the sky, completely disregarding the seawater gushing from the breach.

"Is that all? If so..." Vidal was ultimately disappointed.

Bengelasaisi is good in all other aspects, but his Armament Haki is too weak.

Furthermore, they lack Observation Haki. No matter how strong an animal's instincts are, how strong can they be? At best, they're only similar to Kami-e.

This is why, even after nearly twenty minutes of fighting, every punch he threw landed on his opponent, yet he didn't even have a single fist wound on his own body.

Bengelasaisi' seemingly fierce offensive was actually unable to break through Vidal's defense!

If the former Awakening Observation Haki, he might have had a chance, but unfortunately, he no longer had that opportunity. It's just fate.

Vidal raised his thick, long right arm, his five fingers forming a palm, and his entire arm began to gather a large amount of Photosynthetic Energy and Haki energy.

If someone could see through the outer layer of forest light to the inside, they would see that the arm inside the sleeve was no longer flesh and blood, but made of wood!

This is his strongest state. Photosynthetic Energy can strengthen the body, restore physical strength, and accelerate the healing of injuries.

However, it is still a special ability of plants, and in terms of various effects, flesh and blood can never compare with plants.

The Photosynthetic Energy continuously strengthened the hardness of his wooden arm, and soon it could no longer be described as something as fragile as steel.

[Buzz--]

When all the energy and power gathered to a certain degree, a lifelike, clearly defined, and somewhat transparent horn-like phantom appeared on his right arm.

This move represents the culmination of his year-long training in the Special Training Camp, incorporating all his insights into the Emission of Armament Haki.

Or rather, the formal form of this technique was originally prepared for the Emission of Armament Haki.

Unfortunately, he hasn't fully mastered the Emission yet; he's only scratched the surface and vaguely grasped Emission essence.

That's right, this move is only half-finished!

"The Giant Horn!!"

Facing the 'Snow Leopard' charging forward in a flash of lightning, determined to fight to the death, Vidal did not hesitate and directly swung out a hand chop from his right arm.

[Moo--]

The next moment, a loud bellowing sound resounded in all directions, and the green phantom of the bull's horns shone brightly in the green light.

This creates a giant bull horn-shaped light and shadow formation that is in no way inferior to the size of Bengelasaisi!

The soaring lightning and the falling bull horn collided in mid-air with unparalleled force, and the extreme white light they emitted forced Rear Admiral Xibasi to shield his eyes with his hands.

But he was immediately thrown away by the ensuing gale. At the same time, Sengoku and the other marines on the distant warship saw the pirate ship, which had been turned into a cage, disintegrate bit by bit in the light!

[Boom--]

Only then did the deafening roar finally arrive.

Wow, that's amazing!

"Is Colonel Vidal really that strong?"

"Wasn't he supposed to be only in his early twenties? How could he possess such terrifying power!" The generals, officers, captains, and soldiers below the Sengoku stared in disbelief, deeply shocked.

I initially thought he was just a second-generation naval officer with some connections, someone who came to work alongside the Admiral to gain experience; otherwise, how could he be Colonel at headquarters at such a young age?

Now it seems he's a complete monster! The rank of Colonel seems too low for him!

They have other colonels on Colonel.

Just then, Sengoku smiled slightly, facing the sea breeze, and said softly, "You won. Not bad."

It is unknown how much time passed, but when all the dazzling light faded and the shattered hull was swallowed by the deep sea.

Vidal, with one hand gripping the unconscious Bengelasaisi by the neck and the other carrying a wooden crate taller than a person, flew back to the warship.

Behind him followed Rear Admiral Xibasi, who looked utterly helpless and hadn't done a single thing.

"I've kept you waiting, Admiral Sengoku!"

"Hmm, what's that in your hand?" Sengoku nodded, not even glancing at the humanoid black cat that Vidal had casually tossed aside.

"This."
