True Giant Horn
The fierce battle between World Destroyer Bundy Byrnndi World and Marine Headquarters Colonel Captain Forrest Vidal continues.
No one knew how long they would fight to determine a winner, but compared to the former, whose breath was growing weaker and weaker, the green light on the latter's body remained bright under the sunset.
Judging from the sky, the day seemed to be coming to an end, but apart from the battle area expanding to half an island, the intensity of the fighting between the black shadows and the green light seemed unchanged.
Byrnndi World was truly desperate; he was eager to defeat this damn brat as quickly as possible. As for Vidal, even though he was covered in wounds, the reason why he kept charging forward was unclear.
"Drink it!"
With a furious roar, Byrnndi World twisted his body, his incredibly thick thighs sweeping across and slamming heavily into Vidal's arms, which were raised to block his chest.
[Bang!]
The immense force of the collision severely injured Vidal's arms, sending him flying. Even now, Byrnndi World's strength should not be underestimated.
But.
Having adjusted his posture, Vidal looked down at his dark arms, which, though painful, were not cracked, and his eyes were full of smiles.
Almost there! Almost there! Just a little more!
"Haha, again!"
With a shout, Vidal slammed his Geppo, leaving a long green afterimage, and charged forward again, engaging Byrnndi World in a fierce head-on clash.
[Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!]
"You brat, what right do you have to laugh at this old man!"
Byrnndi World's arms were like a pair of powerful hydraulic presses, slamming into Vidal's body with terrifying force.
"Has your Devil Fruit Awakening yet?!"
"Have you Haki Emission yet?!"
Have you ever witnessed the immense power of those monsters?
"You're nothing but a worm that only knows how to shout, but has never seen the vastness of the ocean or the height of the sky."
These few words of retort were something Byrnndi World had been holding back for a long time, and now, taking advantage of the fact that Vidal was being relentlessly attacked by him, he poured them out as if venting his pent-up anger.
He's a jack-of-all-trades, and a master of none. What about you?
You're just a Colonel in your early twenties, in what way are you better than him? What gives you the right to say that about me?
Why should I?!
"Qualifications?"
The two parted after a brief contact, but this time Vidal did not move. He stood quietly under the sky, and before he knew it, the sunset had disappeared, and a bright moon hung in the night sky.
"What a pity, the weather isn't right. If only the sun were shining brightly." Vidal looked up at the full moon overhead and sighed inexplicably.
Byrnndi World had just landed back on the crumbling, desolate ground when he heard those words carried on the night wind, and he was about to instinctively retort.
A chill ran through him as he stared at Vidal's figure, speechless, as if something had changed.
He couldn't ignore this sudden urge, nor dared he ignore it. But what exactly was it?
"Bondy Byrnndi World, if this is all you've got, and you can't get any stronger, then this fight ends here."
"What?"
Byrnndi World frowned, his muscles tensing instantly, a strong sense of unease washing over him.
[Buzz--]
Just then, a dazzling green light burst forth, its source being Vidal's right arm, which relieved him.
Is it that move again? He's taken it many times in previous battles. It's quite powerful, but it's not enough to defeat me, far from enough!
But then he noticed something different: the green glow on Vidal's right arm was spreading to his entire body.
Finally, just like the Hardening of Armament Haki, all the green light instantly converged and condensed.
Finally, a phantom of deep green armor appeared on the surface, with a pristine white Justice Coat swaying in the night wind behind it.
At the same time, Vidal crossed his arms and looked down at Byrnndi World with a cold gaze, but his invisible aura was steadily rising.
What is he trying to do?
Bondi Byrnndi World thought to himself, but the intense pressure from above made his heart pound.
Have you ever been gored by a bull?
"Stop pretending!!" Byrnndi World's sense of crisis had reached its peak.
[Bang!]
He could no longer contain himself, and with one stomp, he shattered the ground within a radius of more than forty meters, propelling himself into the sky at Hundredfold Speed the speed of a rocket.
Some great terror caused him to push himself beyond his limits; although his body trembled incessantly from the overload, he seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
But in terms of speed, it can indeed rival the original Hundredfold Speed. This is a terrifying power that left Vidal unable to fight back for three whole days, forcing him to desperately hide and avoid its edge.
Wherever he went, he left nothing but devastation; even the air had to make way for him, creating visible vacuum lines.
However, this time, Vidal in the sky kept his eyes narrowed and remained motionless, his Observation Haki precisely pinpointing Byrnndi World's presence.
[Whoosh--]
The next moment, his eyes widened, and his arms, which were crossed in front of his chest, suddenly thrust downwards. The phantom of his armor shone with golden light, and a giant bull formed behind him, leaping down.
[Moo!!]
A thunderous roar, piercing through clouds and splitting rocks, resounded through the heavens. It was like a golden version of the Apis Divine Bull, striding forward to meet the black Inazuma from below.
"This is."
The instant Byrnndi World saw the phantom of the bull while moving at supersonic speed, his pupils suddenly contracted to tiny slits, because he sensed the immense and domineering Haki contained within it.
"Emission?!"
"No!!"
[Boom--]
The Giant Horn's straight-line impact was incredibly fast, swallowing the black Inazuma in less than a second before slamming into the jungle floor, creating a bottomless crater.
The entire island shook violently from the impact, with trees and vegetation sinking into the gaping fissures in the ground. Even the town on the other side of the island experienced a strong earthquake.
Fortunately, the tremors came quickly but also subsided quickly, and no buildings collapsed, causing any casualties among residents.
After all, Vidal's strength hasn't reached that level yet.
On the other side, the illusory armor on Vidal disappeared, and he slowly descended to a height of five meters above the ground, his upper body bare.
It is worth noting that the green light on his body had disappeared, but the various fist marks, bruises, and blood at the corner of his mouth were still there.
This time, he had truly exhausted all his Photosynthetic Energy, and now it was late at night, so he couldn't replenish it at all. If Byrnndi World were to rush out and fight him now, it would truly be a desperate situation.
At this moment, Vidal suddenly missed Borsalino. If that kid could come over, he wouldn't have to fight so hard.
At this moment, a fountain gushed out from the dark cave, and a large amount of clear water spread outwards, suggesting that a lake would soon form here.
[Bang.]
Bondi Byrnndi World emerged from the water, motionless as the current propelled him, his body covered in large, bright red burns.
"He's not completely dead yet?" Vidal was genuinely astonished to discover that the guy was still alive.
This guy was exhausted and weakened when he took the full form of the 'Giant Horn'. He thought he could kill him outright and leave no trace of his body.
I don't know whether to praise Byrnndi World's Haki or to say that the physical constitution of people in this world is truly terrifying. These experts are really hard to kill, no wonder there are so many monsters in Impel Down.
"Now, should I finish him off with one last blow?"
"Should we just throw him into Impel Down according to the unspoken rules of this world?"
Having finally defeated this formidable enemy, Vidal inexplicably began to hesitate on this matter.
