Time Seal and Wood Cage!

The pain in Zangjing Fist Bones was excruciating, and Vidal wasn't exactly having an easy time either. The high-density, hard clash between his palm and fist caused his palm to ache as if it were being pierced by a needle.

He finally discovered the huge problem with his Armament Haki.

Insufficient foundation!

Under normal circumstances, improving the quality and reserves of Armament Haki is a gradual process that requires not only years of training but also high-intensity combat.

Just like Garp, who spent two years honing his Haki on an unnamed island.

However, Vidal's current situation is that the pressure of death imposed on him by Bondi Byrnndi World was too great, and he forced his way to the Emission level by relying on his extremely high talent and extraordinary luck.

Having a high level of Armament Haki is certainly a good thing; it makes dealing with ordinary opponents no problem.

However, when encountering a powerful expert like Zangjing, whose talent may not match his own but who had cultivated for decades, his lack of Haki aura became somewhat apparent.

Rayleigh noticed this problem with Vidal the moment he saw him unleash his Haki Emission.

Rayleigh had no connection to him, and since they were on opposing sides, he naturally wouldn't offer any advice.

Despite the pain in his palm, Vidal noticed that he was making some progress in his intense battle with the Zangjing.

Whether it's the power of the Zangjing' fists, the unique energy of Fish-Man Karate, or the Haki cultivated over thirty years, all of these are like heavy steel hammers constantly forging his Haki.

This situation made Vidal's eyes light up as he looked at the Zangjing. This was no ordinary 'Old Man of Time,' but rather a 'Treasure Old Man.'

Therefore, he was even less willing to let the other party go.

[Bang!]

Vidal landed with a thud, creating a deep, cracked crater in the ground, his golden-green aura clashing with the surrounding purple light.

He pressed down with his fingers clasped together in front of him, making a cracking sound, his cold, blue eyes filled with eager excitement.

"Haha! That was awesome! Let's play again!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he charged forward without saying another word, his momentum as strong and domineering as ever.

Blood trickled from the corner of Zangjing's mouth, his hands trembled slightly, and his breathing was heavy. He was exhausted. Vidal's previous attack was simply too fierce and rapid. The power of each palm strike was truly overwhelming.

Seeing Vidal only focused on his own shouting and laughing, attacking again without giving him any chance to answer, his anger flared even more.

"This is outrageous! You brat!!"

After saying that, he exerted force with his feet and once again used Shark Skin Palm Bottom to leap into the air. However, to Vidal's surprise, this old bird, who was clearly furious and ready to fight to the death, cursed and then turned and ran away, showing his shamelessness to the fullest extent.

"You just wait!"

Zangjing fled towards the stormy harbor with immense frustration. His purple robes were already badly damaged in the battle, and he looked extremely disheveled.

But he couldn't care less about that now; he just wanted to take the Helandou back with him!

But Vidal would not let it go. He immediately transformed into a golden-green rainbow and chased after it like an arrow released from a bow.

"Come back here!"

He roared, thrusting his arms, clad in green armor, toward the back of the Zangjing repository, his body bursting forth with a Pure Gold light.

"The Giant Horn!!"

[Moo--]

Suddenly, a loud bull's moo exploded in mid-air! The enormous sound echoed wildly, startling the Zangjing instinctively turned around and saw a dazzling bull formed of golden light, passing over Vidal's head and charging towards him at an astonishing speed.

At the same time, his subconscious was warning him to get away, that it was dangerous!

But his Observation Haki told him that he couldn't dodge it!

"Damn it! This isn't a Ryokugyu, it's a golden bull!"

"You big liar!"

Zangjing Jing was hysterically cursing wildly, which made him look fierce and exuded an extremely dangerous aura.

"Shark Tile Fist!--"

The dark, Fist Bone struck out with all its might once more, tearing through the thick air and transforming into a visible shockwave that slammed into the bull's horns as it charged towards them.

[Boom!!]

A burst of extremely dazzling golden light erupted, completely suppressing the faint purple light around it, followed by a terrifying roar like a specially made bomb exploding.

"Ugh!--"

Everything happened very quickly. Zangjing's half-burnt purple robe flew off the ground, and he let out a painful roar as he was sent flying backward.

It was unclear when, but his Armament Haki had fully covered him, and wisps of warm heat were rising from his dark skin.

"Time Seal!"

But at that moment, Zangjing, who had fallen heavily to the ground, disregarded everything else and quickly patted his chest with his right palm, which was radiating purple light. Instantly, a deep purple glow appeared on his skin all over his body.

Vidal was surprised to find that his breathing had become easier and the pain on his face had disappeared, as if the 'Giant Horn' he had just fired had had no effect at all.

What's going on?

Unfortunately, Zangjing current predicament, Zang Jing had no time to explain his techniques to him and, without a word, used 'Shark Skin Palm Bottom' again to leap away.

They were not far from the sea, only a few dozen meters away, which made Vidal frown and quickly catch up, firing another 'Giant Horn' at the same time.

This is his fastest ranged ultimate skill, I refuse to believe it's completely useless!

[Moo!--]

The golden bull charged out, and this time, upon hearing the sound, the Zangjing trembled slightly but showed no intention of turning back, appearing to have completely given up resistance and only wanting to escape.

He was eventually overtaken by the 'Giant Horn' and swallowed up from behind by the pillar of light. But when the golden light dissipated, the Zangjing seemed to be unaffected and continued to fly forward.

"How is this possible?" Vidal was completely dumbfounded.

"Hateful!"

"No matter what he did, let's keep him here first and cut off his escape route!"

But what should we do?

Vidal's mind began to race; he didn't have much time left and had to come up with a solution immediately.

Call Sakazuki to intercept?

No way!

Given that guy's level of Haki, he has no way to deal with these Slow-Slow Beam. If it were Borsalino, he might be able to offset some of the slowing effect with the extreme speed of his flash, and reach a normal movement speed.

Ah, if only the ability to control plants were usable, maybe we could create a 'Wood Cage' to trap him.

However, the presence of these Slow-Slow Beam 'fixed' the seedlings as soon as they sprouted, preventing them from growing at all!

"Light, light, light," Vidal muttered to himself as he chased after the radiant purple light around him.

"That's right, they're light rays!!"

His eyes lit up.

At this point, the Zangjing were only about twenty meters away from the port where Helandou and the others were.

[Smack!--]

Just as Zangjing breathed a sigh of relief, a strange clapping sound suddenly came from behind him, followed by a loud shout.

"Wood Cage!!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than thick, long, black logs with a metallic sheen burst forth from the ground five meters in front of him, instantly covering the sky above.

"How is that possible?!"

During this exchange of Zangjing, he showed an incredulous expression, wondering how plants could grow.
